MsTThe New Mexican is the oldest news
paper in New Mexico. It is sent to every

FRIDAY. NOVEMBER 1.
If the Assooiatod Press doesn't shat
oft the eternal yawp of Corbett and Fitz
simmons and their associated fakirs, some
body will be suggesting that it be sued
for obtaining money under false pretenses.
Some of the daily paperB are just be
trinnine to find out that the Colorado
Catholic newspaper has cruelly maligned
the people of New Mexieo. Behind the
times as usual. The New Mexican spoke
up in behalf of the people on this subjeot
a week ago.
The fact that New Mexico has on its
statute books a very strong and vigorous
compulsory school law should not be
overlooked. Parents and guardians, send
the children to school, otherwise you may
be reminded of the fact that New Mexico
provides by law ample facilities for pro
tecting the interest of her children.
The capitol rebuilding committee has
adopted a new departure. It doesn't pro
pose to have any grumbling over the
plans of the new territorial capitol, after
they are ouce adopted, and to this end
it invites citizens of New Mexico visit
ing in Santa Fe to call at the board of
Trade rooms, inspeol and criticise the
plans for the public structure.
With Boss Piatt having seventy-two
delegates at his back in the next Repub
lics convention, and Boss Quay having
Bixty-six delegates to do his bidding, the
true significance of that recent Reed din
ner in New York Is perfeotly apparent.
New England has' 'nkeb the tip and now
oomes forward wifh the announcement
that it is solid for Reed, hence the gloom
in the McKinley And Harrison camps.
Nothing in the known history of dip
lomatic correspondence is more unkind
than Salisbury's treatment of Ambassa
dor Bayard. The announcement on the
part of the American ambassador that
bis mission in England was to make an
other war between the United States and
Englaud impossible Bhould have entitled
him to a courteous hearing when he had
a note from the American state depart
ment to read.
In view of his enforced temporary re
tirement from public life, and his admis
sions, under oath and otherwise, of late,
Col. Hughes' ex-parte statements in the
Citizen on the subject of our judiciary,
based on the alleged assertions of "one of
the best Democratic lawyers in the terri
tory," will scarcely carry with them much
weight. Under the rules of the court
Col. Hughes' testimony is ruled outon the
ground of irrevt Uncy, incompetency and
immaterially.
In these lively times of war and rumors
of war both at home and abroad, it is re
assuring to find the esteemed Silver City
Sentinel devoting its editorial space ex
clusively to such subjeots as "The Dur
rant Trial," "Rapid Tunneling Machines"
and "Air Currents and the Flights of
Birds." It is an assurance that white
winged peace has again settled down
amongst the craft at Silver, and a posi
tive token that Editor Sheridan no longer
hitohes his horse to Editor McDonald's
office door knob.
Ex-Senatob Edmunds, to whose mem
ory the Republicans of New Mexico some
day hope to erect a monument for his
efforts in working through congress that
law known as the "Edmunds Act," ap
pears to have been dug up out of the
Vermont dust and given a good fat job
as speoial attorney for Mr. Bill Morri
son's inter-state commission. We wonder
if this is another instance of overwork
ing the "senatorial courtesy" raoket. Or
possibly) in the eyes of the inter-state
commission, a Democratic lawyer ooaldn't
he found big enough to hold down the
job.
THE FOOL KILLER WARNED.
The man who sees "danger in state
hood" seems to have removed from New
Mexico and temporarily located in Utah.
He prates about the excessive cost of
statehood, the extra burden to tax payers
and all that sort of thing, which, to a man
with anything akin to independence, is
very, very wearying. . What if it does cost
little more at the start, who oares, as
long as it makes of the people of the ter
ritories fall-fledged citizens, independent
Americans, entitled to all the sovereign
righto guaranteed by the constitution f
Where would Colorado, Kansas, Nebraska,
Wyoming, the Dakotaa be to-day had
their citizens taken suoh a niggardly view
of the statehood proposition f
THE NEW TIME SAVERS.
The remarkable run just made on the
railroads between Chicago and New
York adds new glory to American rail
roading. Starting from Chicago early
in the morning and arriving in New
York, a distance of nearly 1,000 miles, in
time to visit a theater on the evening of
the same day, would sound like a romance
but for the aotnal accomplishment of the
feat. It is not likely that this rate of
speed between the two oities will be kept
up regularly for the accommodation of
the public, but such undertakings as this,
suooessfully carried out, point to the
making of far greater speed in the near
future on all our well equipped railroads.
And that the west, too, is abreast of the
times in this respect, is indicated by the
A., T. & S. F. oompany's achievement in
running regular trains between Chicago
and Los Angeles in seventy-fonr hours, a
distance of 2,265 miles. In this move tlio
Santa Fe has inaugurated a new era in
transcontinental travel, and it is entitled
to reap a rich reward for its enterprise at
the hands of an appreciative public.
PJIESS COMMENT.
Settlers Coming;.
A lot of Wisconsin farmers were here
last Saturday looking over the valley.
They were completely oarried away with
the valley and took home with them sam
ples of corn, onions and apples. It is nn
assured fact that they will locate some
where in the valley. One of the gentle
men in particular said that he was much
surprised to find suoh good farms in the
valley, and everything so near as repre
sented in the pamphletB he had read pre
vious to his coming. Among other things
he said that the people of Wisconsin
would be willing to give half of all they
possessed if they had the delightful cli
mate of the Pecos valley. Eddy Current.
. Cry that Vailed to Pan Out.
Notwithstanding McKinley's assertion
that the Wilson bill would ruin the tin
plate industry in this country, it has
grown and nourished more than any
other industry. During the past year
the aotual increase was SO per cent, and
new mills for the manufacture of steel
sheets "black plates" whioh form the
body of commercial tin are constantly be
ing built. During the year which ended
Joue SO, American tin-plate manufac
turers used 93 per cent, of American steel
sheets, while the year previous only 72
per cent, were used. As a prophet Mc
Kinley is out of joint and as a physi
oian a total failure. The only oomplaint
Americans have about the Wilson bill is
that the dose was too small. Raton Re
porter. That McKinley Bnrean.
The McKinley bureau is hard at work
trying to gain supporters for the great
protectionist. Some of the figures which
the McKinley organs in the territory
print would mane a man ot average in
telligence doubt the old adage that "fig
ures never lie." In spite of all the lying
protectionist papers can do, the wool
growers of the territory can never be
made to believe that they did not get the
lowest price ror wool iney ever got under
the Mckinley tariff law. Snowing that
while the McKinley law was in force they
got the lowest prices for wool whioh thoy
were ever obliged to take, it will require
a great deal of juggling with the truth to
make these voters rally to the support of
Mr. McKinley. Col. Morrison, the great
tin-plate orator, may talk protection un
til his gentle voice grows squeaking and
will never succeed in launoning a protec
tion Bhip with McKinley for captaiu on
the troubled political sea in New Mexico.
If Col. Morrison wants to make himself
popular with the Republicans of New
Mexico, and with all of the free silver
men, he should at onoe commence work
on a Cameron boom. Silver City Eagle.

The
PEOOS
VALLEY
of . . .
IFFERS uneqnaled advantages to the farmer, trait grower, live stock raiser, dairyman, bee-
keener, and to the home-seeker srenerallv.
The soil of the Peoos Valley is of high average fertility, and nnder irrigation produces bountiful orops of
most of the grasses, grains, vegetables, berries and fruits of the temperate and some of those of the semi
tropioal zone. In suoh fruit as the peach, pear, plum, grape, prune, apricot, neotarine.oherry, quince, etc,
the Valley will dispute for the pre-eminenoe with California; while oompetent, authority pronounoeB its
upper portions in particular the finest apple country in the world.
Enormous yields of suoh forage orops as alfalfa, sorghum aud Egyptian eorn make the feeding of cattle
and sheep and the raising and fattening of hogs a very profitable oooupation.
The cultivation of oanaigre a tanning material of great value is becoming an important industry in
the Pecos Valley, a home market having been afforded for all that oan be raised, at a prioe yielding a
handsome profit.
The climate of the Pecos Valley B" no saperior in the United Stales, being pre-eminently healthful and
health restoring.
Lands with perpetual water-rights are for sale at low prioes and on easy terms. The water supply of
the Peoos Valley has no equal in all the arid region for oonstanoy and reliability; and this with the superb
climate, productive soil and the facilities afforded by the railway whioh extends through the Valley's en
tire length, will cause these lands to enjoy a constant, and at times rapid, increase in value.
The recent completion of the Peoos Valley Railway to Roswell will cause the more rapid settlement
and development of the upper portions of the Valley, inoluding the rich Feliz seotion. The oompany has
reoently purchased many of the older improved farms about Roswell, and has now for sale lands to meet
the wants of all raw lands, partially improved lands, as well as farms with houses, orchards and fields of
alfalfa and other orops. In the vioiuity of Roswell several pieces of land have been divided into five and
ten aores traots, suitable for orohards and truck farms in connection with suburban homes. Certain of
these traots are being planted to orohards, and will be cultivated and oared for by the oompany for three
years at the end of whioh period they will be handed over to the purchasers. Write for pamphlet fully
describing the terms and conditions on whioh these several classes of traots are sold.
