POINTS FROM THE ANNUAL BEPORT OF GOV. ROSS— CONGRESSIONAL LEGISLATION RECOMMENDED. Edmund G. Ross, the governor of New Mexico, in his annual report to the Secretary of the In- terior upon the affairs of the Territory during the past year, states that there has been a marked in- crease in the population during the past few years. ‘The semi-duennial census of 1885 shows a popula- Iation of 134,141, a gain of 14,576 In five years, and the governor 1s of the opinion that nearly ‘that number in addition has been added during the past two years. At the present rate the census of 1800 will show a population of not less than 200,000, ‘The rate of taxation for all purposes 1s less than percent, ‘The report states that the Method of assessment of the tax and the collection ds very impertect, and on this account, as well as on account of the increasing expenditures, the Territory is falling into debt, a condition whica can be corrected only by Congressional sanction of a special session of the Territorial legislature con- vened for that purpose. The report says that dur- ing the first half of the fiscal year 1,141 entries of pudlic lands, aggregating 152,500’ acres, were made, Itis presuma that these entries were made With a View to settlement. ‘Tue governor renews his former recommenda- tion that the bill adopted by the House of Repre- sentatives at the last sesston of Congress for the settlement of tities to land in Spanish and Mexican grants be made a law. The report states that owing to the occupation of the lands for agricul. tural purposes, the great cattle ranches are being gradually but surely circumscribed and dimin- ished. “The cattle man of the past” con- tinues the report, “and the granger of the present represent two antagonistic classes of Civilization. One ts nomadic and a type of semi-barbaric isolation, the other typities and inciudes the school, the factory and the uctive element of human civilization and progress, ‘Therecan be noco-operation but only friction be- tween them when found in proximity.” The yov- ernor thinks that it is only a question of ime when the cattle ranch will be a thing of the past. He, therefore, opposes any change In the land Jaws in the interest of tis industry, which 13 in its nature inmical to the developement of the Terrl- tory, and wouid only serve to give tt a few addi- tion’ years of existence when it must give way to the conditions of a settled agricultural lite, “He recommends the repeal of all faws that now exist in the shape of Umber-cuiture and desert-land acts, scrip entries and all other measttres whereby Junds may be secured without actual residence and bona fide valuable improvements. ‘The only rafiroad construction that has taken place during the year, continues the report, 18 38 miles of the Texas, Santa Fe and Northern Narrow Guage Raliroad, trom Espanola, in Rio Arriba County, the temporary termination of the Denver und Rib Grande, to Santa Fe, ‘The report States that the mining industry of the Terri- tory has taken on new and improved con- ditions sinee the Jast annual report, ‘There 1s less speculative activity, but more substantial develop- Ment. The average output of gold and silver for 1886 13 given as $3,850,000, divided between gold aud silver in the proportion of one to five. New and important discoveries have been made, says the report, on both the north and south Percha. ‘The report states that the effect of the compul- sory school law passed. by the last legislature nas been good, and has resulted in the increase of pub- Uc schools, ‘The Catholic Chureh supports fifteen schools; the Congregational Church four; the Presbyterian Church three, and the Methodist Church two.

A circular was sent outin New York Saturday to naval officers, yacht owners and others inter- ested in maritime affairs, calling a meeting to be held on Friday in the post-office building, in that city, with a view of pushing the project for a naval reserve corps and to provide means for in- struction in navigation, gunnery and other duties, A committee composed of two Tepresentatives of the merchant marine, two ex-naval officers and ‘one Yacht owner wil! be appointed to take the en- Ure Subject under consideration and to report a plan to Increase the naval strength of the United ‘States and ald the development of the merchant marine, Secretary Whitney became interested in the matter some’ time ago, and has authorized competent naval officers to communicate with representatives of the various yacht clubs, is Intended to draft a bill for Congress to act upon which will authorize the payment of annual bounties Lo owners of steain vessels that may be engaged in the coasting or foreign trade with an Alnerican registry, such Vessels to, be constructed According to the ‘requirements of the Navy De- partnent, or that may be reported by a board of naval officers as sultable for armed auxiliary cruisers. ‘They must be capable of mounting not Jess than two high-powered rifle guns of modern construction, and will be designated as auxiliary cruisers of the first or second ciass, and be so specitied in the Navy Register. Steamers in the coasting trade will receive only 33 per cent of the bounty paid to vessels of a corresponding class en- gaged in the foreign trade, which in no case shall exceed 30 per cent per ton per 1,000 miles of dis- ‘tance covered, and they will at all Umes be at the disposition of theGovernment, and may be trans- ferred temporarily or permancutly to the naval service, Mrs, Cleveland’s Tact. RESCUING EX-PRESIDENT HAYES FROM AN EMBAR- RASING POSITION, ‘From the Philadelphia Press of To-day. An incident observed by only a few took place in ‘the green room of the Academy of Music last Fri- aay evening, upon the occasion of the President’s reception, which went far toward demonstrating the womanly tact possessed by the wife of the nation’s head. Among the many prominent people present was ex-President Hayes, Naturally of 3 Teuring disposition, he did not mingle, to any great extent, with the celebrities. When the time arrived tor the presidental party to take their Places on the staye they formed in couples, and the ex-President Was left without @ partner. At this moment the President and Mrs. Cleveland én- tered the green room from the proscenium Mrs,” Cleveland, womanly in- stinct, ‘took in the situation at a glance, and "in an instant gilded across thé floor past the rest of the company, laid her hand upon the ex-Presidenv’s arm and Wok up her posi- tion at the head of the line. President Cleveland took Chairman Kasson’s arm, and in this order the party Tiled on the stage. ‘ne whole thing waste ‘work of a second, but in that time Mr, Hayes was relleved from an émburrassing, position, and Mrs Cleveland had scored another of those ‘inimital strokes of flnesse tor which she 1s noted.

It Was noticeable that Cleveland and Hill at the President's reception to the visiting governors, ‘stood apart from the others for some time, and after the President had shaken hands with the other governors and they retired, Hill remained and he and the President chatted and laughed for along time. That 1s one of the reasons why the President arrived late at the Clover Club din- her. Governor Hill and his staff were located at ‘the same hotel with the President at the Govern- Or’s request. Governor Hill met Mrs. Cleveland and she was particularly pleasant. Of course Cleveland and Hill chatting and laughing and Sea Apart from the other governors was falked about by the governors andit got about the HILL 18 FOR CLEVELAND. A prominent republican of this State who has ‘held high offices in the gift of the people, asked One of Governor Hill’s staff that night while they Were standing in the hotel corridor near the cashier's desk: “How about Hill for President?” “oh, that was all fixed In New York three days mila Was the answer, “last Tuesday night.

It was also told by the best authority that the Program that had been mapped out had been brought about by the action of the republicans in selecting Fred Grant for secretary of State, and that the big democrats had decided that Hill must be renominated for governor to save New York, because Fred Grant, With the reputation of being the son of his father, was apt to make a republi- can State out of New York for some tme to come unless there were strong democratic gubernatorial and Presidential candidates in the Held. 1t was decided that Hill Was thestrongest man the demo- crats could run for governor in New York State, and that Cleveland’s renomination for President would save New York for the democrats in 1888, elect Cleveland and elect Hill, ——s0* Pomological Politics. REPRESENTATIVE PRUIT-GROWERS IN FAVOR OF MR. BLAINE FOK 1888. A Kingston special to the New York Tribune says: AU the recent meeting of the American Pomological Society at Boston there were between ‘twenty-five and thirty States represented. Nearly all the members of this convention were representative men in thelr States, fresh from the orchards and gardens of the nation, Many being presidents and officers of State industrial societies, It is seldom that such a body of men can ‘be found assembied together. Not a single politician was among the number, and it occurred to a Tribune reporter, who was present, that it would be a good opportunity to learn who these sturdy frult-growers wanted tor President next year. No formal canvass was at- tempted, but their views were elicited in private conversation, Incidentally a large majority of the members were found to be republicans, and of these, with only three exceptions, all favored Mr. Blaine’s renomination, and nearly all felt confident of his election, Ex-President Ohmer, of the Ohio State Horticultural Society, would gladly favor Sherman, but he said it was very clear that Mr. Blaine should be nominated. tin fact,” said he, “no power could prevent his nomination ifthe con- vention were to be held now. But look out for Foraker as a future candidate,” An Arkansas member and a mugwump in 1884 sald: “I am red hot for Blaine now and so 1s every other republican in the State; and another polnt you will do well to note is that Arkansas re- publicans are going to be counted next time.” ‘Members from Geongia expt similar views, and Florida orange-growers wanted Blaine. Presi- pent Sinith, of-the Wiscousin soctety, hadn't heard Of any other candidate. ‘The Michiiat members Were enthusiastic for the old nominee, and the Western members were nearly solid for him. ‘The democratic members either favored Cleveland or felt that Lis nomination was inevitable.
