The clause of the tariff bill putting
a tax on imported cotton was stricken
out in conference but still the price of
cotton is rising under the stimulus of
general protection.
An aged mechanical genius -in New
Orleans is erecting a wind mill to drive
a dynamo to supply a storage battery
with electricity with which to light
his shop and drive the machinery there-
in. Germany has sent in another pro-
test agaiost having her sugar taxed on
entering this country but if Uncle
Sam takes any notice of it all it will
simply be to say: "I can't do any
thing for you."
SINCE it has been demonstrated that
the best of steel can be made at Bir-
mingham Ala. as at any other place
in the country the people of that place
have taken steps to have the govern-
ment establish its armor plate factory
at that place.
A Texas populist who died at Paris
in this state a few days since was firm
in the Tom Watson faith his last
words to sorrowing relatives and
friends who surrounded his bed being:
"Say to the boys that I will never be
with them at the populist meetings sny
more and tell them that I died in the
middle of the road."
The constitutional amendments re-
cently voted on having been defeated
the Houston Post comes out in favor
of a new constitution arguing that
the old charter does not meet the re-
quirements of the present day and
that it would be less costly to bold a
constitutional convention than be con-
stantly attempting to patch up the o!d
constitution of 1876.
In view of the fact that Senator
Tillman of South Carolina has been
telling his constituents what a great
man he is at Washington and how his
speeches in the senate attract the
closest attention of the assembled
atatesmeo and diplomats the New Or-
leans Daily States (democrat) thinks
"it is quite evident that Tillman is
suffering from an enlargement of the
head."
Both the state and navy depart-
ments at Washington have denied the
report that a protectorate over the
Hawaiian Islands is to ba declared on
or about the 28th of this month or at
any other time. Therefore Hawaiian
affairs will probably remain in statu
quo until congress takes action on the
annexation treaty in December next
always providing that Japan does not
precipitate matters.
And now Russia is encouraging
Persia to attack Turkey in the rear
but England will have to go to the res-
cue of Turkey to prevent Kussia gain-
ing a nearer approach to India just as
Russia has to defend the Tutk against
Ea gland's design on the Dardanelles.
There is no principal of honor moral-
ity or religion involved in any of the
conspiracies against Turkey hatched
by the Christian nations their whole
bent and purpose is plunder.
An appeal is being sent out to ex-
confederate soldiers for aid in sending
ex-Governor Hogg and Dr. R. B. Lic-
noski of Houston to the City of Mex-
ico to intercede with president Diaz
for the life of Mac Stewart an ex-confederate
soldier.who has been condemn-
ed to death for killing a policeman in
Parral Chihuahua and who has been
in jail since July 18!)o. The intercess-
ors propose to leave on the first of
September for the City of Mexico.
The latest and toughest lightning
story comes from Florida and isttrong-
er proof than ever that lightning isjifc-
ble to strike twice in the same place.
The strange story telegraphed frcm
Fort Ogdcn Florida is to the effect
that a man was btruck and killed by
lightning and was buried in the field
where he fell. A week later he was
again struck by l ghtning the body
and coffin being thrown up on top of
the ground and the coffin shivered into
splinters.
The diary found on the frozen body
of a returning Alaska miner ought to
chill the ardor of many who contem-
plate going to that region of death.
The accouct was written by and wis
found on the body of Charles A. Black-
ptoce the last to survive of three hardy
miners who went to the frozen mines
last year and attempted to return to
the coast last April. It states that the
three men were overtaken near the
summit of a mountain by a terrible
storm which drove them before it.
Their outfit and their dog were hurled
over a cliff by the fury of the storm.
That night one of the men froze to
death and at noon the next day an-
other one perished from cold. After
the third and last man of the party
had his . sars nose and four fingers on
his r'ght hand and two on his left hand
frozen an inch back" he sat down
wrote the account and then succumbed
to the cold. And thus will doubtless
perish hundreds if not thousands more
in the mad rush for Klondyke.

London's L'nderfroaud Railway.
The London underground electric
railway which has found it advanta-
geous to come to the United Stales for
an equipment is laid in two deep tun
nels eo feet below tne suriace. At
present the length of single track is
thirteen and a half miles but the
system will he extended. Tbp current
is taken from a third rail. There will
be thirty-five locomotives each hauling
siven cars seating 3:il -persons At the
stations forty-nine high-speed electric
elevators of American design acd
make will be instated each able to
carry 100 paseengers-per trip at a speed
of loO feet per minute l ne tare win
be 4c and the estimate of passengers is
48000000 per annum. That American
electrical-apparatus has been fouod es-
sential in this enterprise is a great
triumph for this country.
Mexican International.
By agrf ement between the company
and the bondholders an arrangemeni
has been made to refund the outstand-
ing $15134000 ifirst mortgage four
per cent bonds. They will be replaced
by JEl 200000 ii percent. 50 year bonds
$41130000 four per cant. 80 yea" first
mortgage bonds and $4499000 income
bonds. By this arrangement the fixed
charges for interest will be reduced
from $fi0o:i()0 to about $448058 per an-
num. The income bonds are to be used
to build about 309 miles of new road
and for betterments. The main line of
this road extends from Ciudad Porfirio
Diaz on the Rio Grande southwest to
Durango Mexico 540 miles with
branches aggregating 119 miles. By
the provitiones of the charter the
road is limited in its issue of bonds to
$30000 per mile.

Meilvan National.
News correspondent has it from
eood authority tht the Mexican Na
tional road running fiom Laredo to
the City oi Mexico a distance of boo
miles has determined to widen the
road from a narrow to a standard gauge
track and it is expected that the
change will be made within the next
twelve montns. J.nis road from .Lare-
do to Corpus Christi 103 miles has al-
ready bieu tied with standard gauge
ties and both roads will be widened at
the same time when everything is in
readiness. The work of widening
out the rails a distance of 1000
miles will be accomplished in one
night.
The tunnel bzing cut this side of
Saltillo to shorten the distance and re-
duce the grade is progressing well.

The Yucatan Rebellion.
It is rumored in military circles that
the Mexican government is preparing
to send a strong force of soldiers
agains the rebellious Indians of i uca-
tan. The' government has probably
reached a point where patience has
ceased to be a virtue.
CiolU Cure.
A Chicago boy who is in the Alaska
gold region writes home that "whisky
costs $1 a drink here and it is mighty
bad stuff tco so I nave quit it alto

cies of goM cure.

There is no use taking harmful and
deadly narcotics for nervousness acd

in a worse condition than it was be-
fore. rlhe way to effect a cure is to
remove the cause. Dr. Pierce's Fav-
orite Prescription will do it. It has
cured tens of thousands of cares of
female weakness and nervousLess. It
is a most wonderful invigorating nerv-
ine or nerve food. It brings sound

her delicate organization by a regular-
ly graduated physician an experienced

POLICY SHOP KAI 1.
The Huyon City has Taken the Initia
tive.
About a week ago just as a drawing
was about to take place one noon at a
well known policy shop at Houston
Texas the district attorney and sheriff
entered the place and immediately pro-
ceeded to take charp-e. There were
about 150 people in the room at the
time for the most part negroes.
There was no excitement or stamp
eding at the approach of the officers:
in fact the proprietor assea permission
to finish the drawing w nicn request
however was not gran'ed.
The policy shops are becoming so
widespread in their pernicious influence
that they are becoming a source of
universal complaint The game is so
fascinating that it begets other crime
in the way of petty thefts to get moi;ey
with which to olav it. Servants who
are sent to market or out to make pur-
chases will steal 5 or 10 cents of the
change with which to buy policy tick-
ets. These tickets are generally on
sale at corner groceries. The cheap-
ness of the investment and the fact
that vou can win $9 on investment of
5 cents if you strike the right combina
tion is that which mates tne game so
nonular. These policy shops have their
strikers or agents all over town selling
tickets and it is said that school ca.ld-
ren are even becoming patrons of the
irame. It is played very mucn oo iue
plan of the Louisiana lottery the num-
bers being drawn from a big glass
wheel. The penalty for etablihine a
lottery is a fine of from $100 to $1000
for selling tickets from $10 to $100.
Operations Near Havana.
As a caricature upon Weyler's paci
fication proclamations the Cubans have
kept the suburbs about Havana for a
distance of ten miles in a reign of ter
ror for the last week and as a sort of
extra matinee en the day the captain
General left Havana they fired build
ings at five different points around tne
city so that the b'aze could be seen
from the tloiei ineieierra wnicn is
located in the central part ofj he city.
Another raid was made at Jesus del
Monte wh'ch is off to one side from
Mar ano where the raid took place
Friday. In addition to this a detach-
ment of 300 insurgents ran the gantlet
of t'-e ins-ide sentinels' post of Regla
on the southeastern side of the city
shoot'ng down-in thejeour.-eof their ride
solan eighteen sentinels firing fifteen
buildings Jand committing as much
damage as they possibly could.
The papers inHavana are not allowed
to say a word in regard to the bold
raids of the insurgents but the peop'e
know of it and it has created a great
deal of excitement in the city. Many of
the people are leaving for the United
States whenever they can do so without
leaving property that would be confis-
cated by the Spaniards. The American
and other correspondents here have
been warned not to send out details of
these "raids of bandits" as the officials
call them and their movements are
closely watched. Special detectives in
citizen's dress dow accompany the Plant
steamships from here to Key West
trying to ascertain who the "go-betweens"
are carrying the correspon
dents' letters. One tragic instance is
reported as happening last wtek. A Cu
ban boy was carrying a package from a
correspondent to a vessel in thenar bor.
He was followed by the guards and chas-
ed. Seeing tbatte was about to be
caught he threw the package into a sew-
er and the next instant was cut down by
the sword of the so'.dier dying the next
day in the hospital.
Made a Big Thing
In 1890 while living ia Duluih
Julius Swanson purchased 750 shares
in a Colorado mine near Colorado
Springs paying 10 cnts a share for it.
A few years later he offered the lot for
$7.50 and his friecds laughtd at him
and refused to buy. In 1893 he went
to Las Yeeas and accepted a position in
a shoe store. Fearing he would have
to pay taxes on his Colorado property
he tried to give his shares away. No
person wanted them even as a gift
Swanson was industrious and a year
ago opened a shoe store of his own.
Recently Colorado Springs parties of-
fered Swanson $37000 for his 750 shares.
He will leave for Colorado Springs
on Thursday. He says $37000 for $73
is good enough for him and he will
sell.
Expensive Habits.
It always seemed straDge to us that
immediately after a man is safely seat-
ed in a county office that his taste be-
comes so cultivated that he must have
lithograph letter heads upon which to
write bis letters instead of giving that
work to the home printer who helped
to bestow the office. It is a settled fact
that promotion to office suddenly
developes a love for the picturesque in
the breast of the average man to the
utter annihilation of such a little old
sentiment as gratitude. Wharton
Star.
Restriction of Immigration.
President McKinley said upon the
subject in his inaugural airess: "Our
naturalization and immigration laws
should be further improved to the con-
stant promotion of a safer a better and
a higher citizenship. A grave peril
to the lepubiic would be a citizenship
too ignorant to understand or too
vicious to appreciate the great value
and beneficence of our institutions and
laws and against all who come here
to make war upon them our gates must
be promptly and tightly closed."
The Grandest Remedy.

howie Va. certifies that he had con-
sumption was given up to die sought

ery and was cured by use of two bot-
tles. For past three years has been
attending to business and says Dr.
King's New Discovery is the grandest

THE TERRITORIAL FAIR.
The Outlook Mst Promising for a
Good Exhibition
The Territorial Fair association are
out for a big time this year. It has a
large executive committee of the best
element in that live city in charge of
the work.
The resources of the territory are to
receive more than usual attention this
year as is shown by the large increase
in the prizes for county and district
exhibits in the field of agriculture
horticulture aud mining. It has put up
$350 00 for the best and largest collec-
tion of fruit grown in any county in
New Mexico and Arizona the firsi
prize to be $200 00 the second $100.00
and the third $50.00. The best collec-
tion of fruit raised by any one exhibitor
will be $io.00 for the first prize and
$10.00 for the second. For the best and
largest collection of field farm and
garden products grown in any one
county the first prize will be $125.00
the second $75.00 and the third $25.00.
For the best general collection of ores
from any county in New Mexico and
Arizona the first prize will be $200.00
the second $100 00 and the third $50.00.
For the bet cabinet collection of ores
belonging in New Mexico and Arizona
the first prize will be $25.00 and the
second $15.00. The association will
also p it up purses for individual exhi-
bits n all the various products of the
country.
The executive committee has made a
great innovation this year in -the cus-
tomary program in the speed ring and
field sports and have simply adjusted
things in this line to meet the de-
mands of the people who patronize the
fair.
There will be three or four running
races for blood each day of the week.
No one can afford to miss the races this
year.
Tne experience or tne association last
year convinced it that a ball tourna-
ment and bicycle races were among
the popular things with the peop'e.
The association will therefore put up
$1500.00 for a ball tournament to be
open to the world the money to be di-
vided into four prizes; the first prize
$000.00. the second $400.00 the third
$300.00 and the fourth $200.00. No
charge will be made for entering the
ball teams in the tournament but the
clubs entering will be required to
make their entry and file the names of
the players on or before August 15 at
midnight. $600.00 will go to the fast-
est riders. A complete program of bi-
cycle races will ba issued in a few
days.
The secretary is in correspondence
with the railroad officials to secure ex-
ceptionally low rates to the fair this
year and is also urging the Railroad
Co. to give hoaiesseliers excursion
rates from the eastern states to Albu-
querque during the fair with thirty
days to look at the territory if they so
desire and return home on their excur-
sion rates.
The executive committee believe
that with the co-operation of the Rail
road Co. in getting homesekers to
visit New Mexico during the lair
where can be seen the resources of our
territory as they will be exhibited the
fair can be made of great practical
value to the territory. The Territorial
Fair association therefore appeals to
tbe citizens of New Mexico to join
with it in preparing a great exhibition
of New Mexico's wonderful resources
that will be a credit and lasting benefit
to the territory.
Let it run and your cough may end
in something serious. It's pretty sure
to if your blood is poor. I hat. is lust
the time and condition that invites
consumption. Tbe seeds are sown and
it lias fastened its hold upon
you before you know that it is near.
It wont do to trifle and delay when tbe
remedy is at band. Every disorder
that can be reached through the blood
yields to Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery. For severe coughs bron
chial throat and lung diseases asthma
scrofula in every form and even scrofu
lous affection of tbe lungs that's called
consumption in all its earlier stages
it is a positive and complete cure.
It is always gratifying to receive
testimonials for Chamberlain s Colic
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy aud
when tbe endorsement is from a
physician it is especially so. "There
is no more sati-factory or effective rem
medy than Chamberlain 'sColicCholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy" writes Dr. R.
E. Robey physician and pharmacistof
Olney Mo.; and as he has used tbe rem-
medy in his own family and sold it in
his drug store for six years he should
certainly know. For sale by all

A Remarkable Cure of Chronic
Diarrhoea.
In 1862 when I served my country
as a private in company A 167th Pen-
nsylvania Volunteers I contracted
chronic diarrhoea. It has given me a
great deal of trouble ever since I have
tried a dozen different medicines and
several prominent doctors without any
permacent relief. Not long ago a friend
sent me a sample bottle of Chamber-
bin's Colic Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy and after that 1 bought and
took a 50 cent bottle; and now I ran
say that I am entirely cured. I cannot
be thankful enough to you for this
great Remedy and recommend it to
all suffering veterans. If in doubt write
me. Yours gratefully Henry Stein-
