OUR MILITARY INSTITUTE.
The Optic- would say -a word
this article is captioned as it is for the I
reason the Institution is owned and I
supported by the territory, though it J
Is making rapid and unusual strides
i t i t J t i i J i
toward sustaining itself.
Col. J. O. Meadorg, superintendent
of the (military Institute, was in Las
Vegas yesterday in the interests of the
'flohool over which he presides with
such signal success, and from him was
gleaned information of moment and
Importance to the people of New Mex
lco. And first The Optic would
epeak of Col. Meadors. He is an edu
cator of tremendous energy, an inde
fatigable worker Who is always in the
harness, so topeak. Coming to New
Mexico, in March, 1898, under an ar
rangement with ihe board of regents,
ho at once took active control of the
military Institute, which," though the
youngest of all the territorial institu
tions, and the appropriation about one-
third as large as the others, he has al
ready succeeded in building up to its
present proportions and high standard
of excellence. CoJ. Meadors appreci
ates the fact that the time is near at
hand when the legislative assembly
will either have to discriminate among
the Institutions, or cut off the appro
priations altogether. In view of this
he Is working-as hard as man can work
to make the military institute self-
sustaining and to his credit be it said
lie has come nearer attaining the goal
of that ambition than has any other
Territorial institution. ..The first day
ct the present session the building was
completed and filled, insuring $11,000
In tuition fees the first week. It is
now found necessary to enlarge the
living accommodations yet this sum
mer. Indeed, it is a matter of record
that there are more students at the
Institute from. outside the county of
location proportionately than at all
other Territorial institutions corn
lined, it being the only school of its
character within our borders.
The school (has no politics, no sec
tionalism, no sectarianism; excellent
discipline and moral training; no case
of hazing was ever known. All in
structors, of whom there are six, grad
uates of the best colleges, are' required
to live in barracks, together with the
cadets, the superintendent's family and
the employes. , Particular attention is
given to the health and development
of students. Ample facilities for ath
letic exercises are at band, there is a
daily drill and students are required
to remain, within, the, enclosed limits
day and night Leaves of absence are
granted by the superintendent, though
It is not often requested, all forms of
ports and amusements being provided
on the premises. The N. M. M. i. base
ball team of 1900 is the best amateur
team In the southwest, the track team
also taking first rank. Boxing and
physical culture of all kinds are
, taught by regularly employed instrtict-
rS- : t iV -3 ' :
. The buildings and improvements at
the Roswell institute cost about $35,
000. The buildings' are furnished
'throughout and thoroughly equipped;
four stories; gas lighted and steam
heated, hot and cold water on every
floor;modern baths, lavatories and
closets, complete system of water
works, sewage and fire apparatus. !
v The course of study embraces eight
years and and includes English, Span
ish, Latin, German, French, mathemat
ics and natural sciences. .
The necessary expenses are tuition,
board, lodging, laundry and medical
a.ttendance,September to June, $200;
blouse, trousers ' and.- cap, $7,. t: $19 ;
books and . stationery $6 to $10. A
' cadet's-outflt consists of a pair of good
'shoes, four skeets for single bed, two
'pi)lowf cases.f one pair .blankets; one
tomfort or spread, two clothes bags,
six toweJs,.seyenjnapk4ns, gx hfmdker
Xhiefa, four shirts, six white standing
collars, .underwear, - a, t tooth brush,
hair bruBh and comb, a blacking-brush,
clothes-brush and a napkin ring.
The board of commissioners of each
county in New Mexico appoint one
cadet annually to the New Mexico mil-
Itary Institute, the appointee receiving
board and" tuition free, . However, he
Is required ,to deposit $30 on entrance
for laundry, medical attendance, break
age and incidentals.

JEFFERSONIAN EXPANSION.
The wisdom of an' imperial policy
for the acquisition of territory by con-
the views of Thomas Jefferson, among
the ablest of the early statesmen, are
important , -His part In the acquisition
. . . . a 1
oj the Louisiana purchase leaas many
to believe he was In lavor of 'remote
expansion. Such is not the , case.
Speaking of the annexation of Cuba.he
wrote in 1809 to President Monroe:
ft will be objected to our procuring
Cuba that no limit can then be drawn
to our future acquisitions. Cuba can
be defended by us without a navy, and
this develops' the principle which
ought to limit our views. Nothing
should ever be accepted which would
require a navy to defend it. I would
immediately erect a column on the
southernmost llmlt3 of Cuba, and In
scribe on it a ne plus ultra as to us In
that direction."
With such views Jefferson cannot
be invoked as favoring oriental con
quests by armies and navies that im-.
poverish the people..,
:
DEFENDING NEW MEXICO.
Former Resident ot the Territory
Speak of the Character, of .Our
People. "'
To the Editor of theWashington"Post"
Credited to "Mr. R. S. Benson, of
Florence, N. M.," there appeared "In
Hotel Lobbies," in Wednesday's "Post.'
an interview in which the majority of
the citizens of that Territory are char
acterized as "greasers," , and ''cut
throats, horse-thieves and murderers."
the text for which was the plank in
the republican national platform fa
voring the admission of New Mexico
Into the union. I trust you will tfive
space to a protest against the publica
tion of such baseless and libelous ex
pressions, and a statement of a few
facts showing the character of the cit
izenshlp of New Mexico and the basTa
for" the Territory's demand for state
hood, and the appreciation of the dele
gates to the republican national con
vention of the justice of that demand
A presentation of the mass of sta
tistics, both federal and territorial
would show that the percentage of
taxes expended for schools, the churcii
connected population, the number of
criminals, the banking capital and de
posits, the tax rate and debts, and
the increase and importance of the
development of every 1 material inter
est of the Territory, compare, favor
ably wjth those of the most progres
sive statesi of the west, ;Yet.: New
Mexico Is a section which but fifty
years ago expansion brought to us with
a population foreign (n both sentiment
and language. I would direct attea
tion to the character'of the men who
have represented the Territory in con
gress, among whom are: Stephen B.
Eikins, of Ohio, ex-secretary of war
and now senator from West Virginia;
Mariano S. Otero, a native of New
Mexico,now president of the Commer
cial national bank of Albuquerque;
Trinidad Romero, a native, afterward
appointed marshal by President Har
rison; Tranquilino Luna, a native 'and
always a leading business man' of the
Territory, whose son recently lost his
irfe as a captain In the volunteer army
'in the Philippines, after having served
with distinction In Cuba; F. A. Manza
nares, now at the head of one of the
principal mercantile establishments In
the southwest; J. Francisco Chavez,
who served with distinction as colonel
of a New Mexico regiment during the
civil war, and is one of the leading
members of the bar of the Territory;
Antonio Joseph, several times a pre
siding officer' la the legislature and a
successful merchant; Thomas B. Cat
ron, of Missouri, a former law and bus
iness partner of Senator Elklns, and
one of the leading members of the
western bar; H. B. Fergusson, of Ala
bama, one of the best criminal lawyers
tn the southwest and a successful busi
ness man, and 'the present delegate,
Pedro Perea, ex-Territorial treasurer,
several times member of the legisla
ture, and president of the First nation
al bank of Santa Fe, the oldest and
one of the strongest financial institu
tions of the Territory. '
The present , governor, Miguel A.
Otero, is a native New Mexican, ap
pointed by President McKinley. So
much for the character of our federal
representatives.- -' -As to the Territor
ial legislature it is sufficient to say
that, with a majority of lit member-

Benson applies' to the republicans of
the Territory, and sometime a major
ity composed of "cutthroats, horse
thieves, and murderers," the epithets

The unanimous demand for state-1
hood is ehown by the fact that every!

tion in favor of admission; that num
bers of leading citiiens have visited
Washington to urge favorable action
by congress, and bills for admission
have been favorably reported ta and
b' both, republicttn and demo.
cratic houses after lull discussion.
The regiments of "greasers," who vol
unteered for service In the civil war,
who themselves or their fore-fathers,
but fifteen years before had been
Sliens, and the regiment of "greasers,
cutthroats, etc., who fought in Cuba,
and many of whom are now fighting In
the volunteer army Jn.tbe.FliillppJnes,
also attest the Americanism and pat
riotism of New Mexico's citizens.
HARRY H. PIERCE.
Editor "Post:". May I call your at
tention fo an interview In the. "lobby
chat of the "Poet" of July 4th, In
which Mr. Benson, of "Florence, New
Mexico," is quoted as eaying a number
I A ILta . Y. Int. mb. IWa kAr1 Ml mlltl A
In New Mexico; there Is a town in
Arizona end one in Colorado by that
name.
To call a native of New Mexico a
"greaser" nowadays stamps a man or
woman as ignorant and narrow. To
say that "hundreds of murderers.
horse thieves, gamblers and all around
bad men' that have "been driven out
of the states have congregated In New
Mexico and the other territories, and
are almost as. unanimous in being
democrats aa the greasers are in affili
ating; with the republican party," is
false, and I defy "Mr. Benson" to brln,
proof.
..For years I lived in New Mexico
five of that time among the natives of
the Manzano mountains. ' Remote
from railroads, telegraph and .new
towns made by Americans,' ! Hved
among the Manzaneros, who are re
garded throughout the Territory as
holding more nearly to the traditions
and customs of their forefathers than
any other community. In all the years
my home was among them in moun
tain cabin or village adobe we never
found it necessary to have lock or bar
to doors Or Windows, and we had hot
a right that was not respected by these
warai-hearted, loyal people. '
No American prizes his right of
suffrage more than the Mexican; few
are so zealouB dn its rights and privi
leges.
The trouble about New Mexico is
that it is an unknown land to the
majority of people, and one person
like "Mr. Benson" does irreparable in
jury. . There are representatives in
congress who do not know that New
Mexico is a part of the United States
and one, very recently, wondered why
the Hon. Pedro Perea sat among his
peers when he was from Mexico.
- A clerk in the city postofflee within
the year mfused to make out a United
States money order, Insisting that it
would require "an international one,'
being "a foreign" country.
If "Mr Benson" will take his little
piece In the "Post" and travel slowly
along the line of the Santa Fe road
stopping here and -there to read it
aloud to the Inhabitants, he will learn
a whole lot about both frontier justice
and frontier mercy.
OLIVE ENNIS HITE..
Stony Man Camp, Skyland, Va., July 6.
Much as he may dislike to do so,
from a political view point, the Chinese
situation is of such a grave, character
that the president may be compelled
to call congress together, before the
time of regular meeting in December.
The amount of money authorized by
congress to be expended for the trans
portation of troops is practically ex
hausted and if this country is to take
any part in the policy of vengeance,
which Is to' be meted to the yellow
people of Asia, H Is absolutely essent
ial that congress should be convened
and authorize the necessary expendi
ture. In the organization of the library
'association, or Young Men's Christian
association, or whatever name or form
the organization may take, which has
in view the establishment of a better
public library and rooms where young
men may congregate under wholesome
influences, the doors should be wide
open for all creed3, sects and denomi
nations, Christian, Jew and Gentile.
The broader the basis within moral
lines, the greater the prospect of suc
pess. It would, indeed, be an inspira
tion to see the Protestant and Catholic
clergy and the Jewish rabbi fraterniz
ing in a common effort to furnish good
reading and club rooms for the young
men who congregate in . Las Vegas.
Push along the good work on. the
broadest lines.
