The El Paso Times of the 28th tilt., obtained the following

infor-mation concerning the light against the drift fence in this territory, from Judge II. B.

Ham-ilton, which will be of interest to many of the Eagi.k's readers:

"Judge II. B. Hamilton has just returned from Socorro, N. M.,

"

-men of the Pecos Valley for maintaining drift fences on the public domain, and a civil suit was also filed by the United States against theCass Land & Cattle company to compel the removal of drift fences maintained by them in the Pecos Valley. Judge Hamilton represents the defend

ants in these three cases, which are of the utmost importance to

the-- cattlemen throughout New

Mexico and Arizona.

The trouble started some months ago in the Pecos Valley ind was caused bytheerection on

the public domain of what is

known as drift fences. These are fences built of post and wire strung across the country for the purpose of preventing cattle from ifting olTthe range in case of storms. Ihe government has ordered their removal as obstuc-

-tions to the free passage over the public domain, and a vigorous light is being made. The tight was begun in the Pecos county-an-d

last year the commissioners

of the general land office issued an order for the immediate remov al of the fences in question, with-

tons, nearly l'),S.V tonsmorethan for the y_ame period last year.

French consumption for the same period this pear w.ii 2 ,3(1 tons, which was S,d8S _tons more than

for the same period last year. Germany, however, is consuming more copper at present than any other foreign country, 3),G tons of imported copper (_{not including}

pyrites) being the amount

con-sumed, for the first six months of

the year. As the foreign

consu-mer is _{the customer} for American copper the foreign consumption

is gratifying when we consider

that

within the four years and a

out any previous notice to the parties concerned. They

diatelv employed Judge B.

Hamilton to carry on their case, and hewent to Washington and

filed a petition for permission to submit testimony for arehearing. In Jul- - _{last, however, the}

com-missioner made a ruling, after hearing thecase, wherein he

de-clined to modify his former on

and revoke the order.

Ap-plication was then made for an appeal to the secretary of the

in-terior. This was refused by the commissioner and the attorney general sent orders to the United States district attorney to take legal stepsto compel theremoval of the fences at once. This has brought about the indictment and the civil suit just filed at Socorro.

Judge Hamilton has, howerer, secured from the secretary of the interior aspecial order to the

com-missioner of the general land

office to send up the entire case for a hearing and review,

sus-pending further action by the department until this has been done. Although this does not necessarily ston the court rro

-ceedings, the attorney general is not disposed to push on the case. When seen yesterday by Times reporter Judge Hamilton said:

"Drift

fences are objected to

by the public generally. Both cattlemen and sheepmen consider

that

they are a benefit. The

fen-ces maintained by _{my clients}

have gates at every highway and point of crossing to allow parties to pass freely. The matter is one of Yital importance to cattlmen in New Mexico and Arizona."

President Mc-Kinl- ev

does not want him to ride with him on inauguration day. It has alwaysbeen the custom for the retiring president to ride in

the carriage with the president elect. But since McKinley

suc-ceeds himself, Teddy desires this honor. A friend of Kosevelt's says the governordesires to ride with president McKinley merely so that the latter may share the applause that would greet the governor along the way.

Smith thinks there is no question but

that

it will, he desires to

be-gin moving it to El Paso atonce. The quarries are 5to8miles fro.n Carrizozo station on the El Paso ti Northeastern and may be put aboard the cars

at that

place at a very reasonableexpense.

The exhibit from thesequarries in the El Paso Chamber of

Com-merce first attracted Mr. Smith's attention, and immediately after learning the particulars of the deposit and something about the quantity he, in company with Maj. S. M. Davis, who is

travel-ing in the interest of the miner's convention which will meet in El Paso January lfith, 1W0 came direct to White Oaks to make a

personal and thorough

investi-gation.

Should Mr. Smith find _the

quarries satisfactory, saws will

be immediately put in to block out the marble preparatory to shipping to market atEl Paso and elsewhere. There is, he says, great demand for both the black and white marble in St. Louis and other eastern cities. Should the enterpriseonce become known and in operation it will mean much to White Oaks and will

re-sult in other industries of equal importance immediately

follow-ing in its wake.'

MINES AND MINERALS Is a mining periodical for

pros-pectors, miners, mine officials, mine owners, mining engineers and mining students.

It

is

de-voted exclusively to mining and metallurgy.

It

was established in 19S1 and has a larger

circula-tion than any other mining

pub-lication in the world. This is

due to the fact

that

it has always been the aim of the editors and publishers to make it the best mining publication.

It

is in no sense a stock-jobbin-g, or boom

organ, and publishes no articles except those pertaining directly to the mining industry.
