OUTLAWS In NEW MEXICO.
A Newspaper Office Destroyed.

Santa Fe, January 20. Last night mob de-
stroyed and threw into the river the News and
Press office of Cimerron. 1t is believed to have
been done by outlaws and fugitives from justice
persons, who took active part against the election
Of Elkins and the local ticket. 1t has resulted
that notwithstanding large amounts of money
were spent to carry Colfax county against Elkins
| and the local ticket, all were elected. The wrath
OF his opponents was very great
1t is the prevailing opinion that the murder of
Rev. F. j. Toby happening about this time that
fact was used to incite mob, ostensby TO arrest
and kill his alleged murderers, but really to run
the probate Judge elect, and other officers and
time the News and Press published some articles
calculated to give comfort to the mob law. and
kept up continued abuse of several prominent
officials. The editors and proprietors were d.
vided in their opinion, and an article appeared
containing very strong resolutions, denouncing
certain per sons, who acted in very lawless man
ner. This was however retracted by one of the
editors, and again the mob was friendly. Some
two weeks after, several men had been killed, and
some OF the best driven out of the country, incud
ing the Justice of the Peace and Judge of Pro-
bate. The present editor published an article
which shows that he did not subscribe to the tone
of the paper This caused the final rupture, leav-
ing Mr.. Dawson in charge of the paper. He was
Immediately notified by an anonymous letter, that
he was in danger and must change his tone. He
answered in a manly way by publishing the
onymeus letter and proposing to be entirely indc-
pendent, and the result was the destruction Of the
office last night.
This band of outlaws are mostly fugitives from
Justice and persons under indictment in this terri
tory, who have been melted to these deeds of
murder and general lawlessness it Is supposed by
poltical enemies of Mr.. Elkins, who through en-
w and jealousy Of him desire to defeat his effort
TO have New Mexico admitted as q State. A large
majority Of the people of this county are law
abiding, but have not the means to fight the out

That Skeep-Skin Case.


WINTHROP, January 18th, 1875.
Mr.. EDITOR Il notice by your paper Of the 18th
that there has been sheep-skn case at Winthrop.
Now the facts are, there were papers put into off,
Ger Cars hands and he Carr ordered to attach
them which he did and sold them for $3.50 being
three skins. True the case has excited some in
terest, but that these the only sheep the def
Rad was not proved, for in fact he (Smth) has
been buying, killing and selling sheep skins and
the meat all the fall. Whereupon the action was
brought, but counsel for Smith, l.. T. Carleton,
elected to prove any damage, so Justice Wood
ward merely gave nominal damage, merely one
dollar, from which appeal has been taken to the
Supreme Judicial Court, when We expect the facts
will all come out.

1uther Benson. the HooGer orator, appeared

1uthef Benson, the HooGer orator, appeared
upon the platform, being Enthusiastically received
and spoke briefly of his bitter experience. Though
but 80 years old, he had felt all the sorrows that
| earth or hell could furnish. He was no half way
temperance man; 10 one can be true that does not
| come up to the principle of prohibition. No such
thing as moderate drinking. Was in favor OF NOR
al suason, but he had no sympathy or pity for the
rumseler, and he was in favor Of solid law.
Fine the rumseller million of dollars for the first
offence, and imprison him for four hundred
years, or during his natural life.
Mr.. Randall called up the matter OF selling liG-
at Philadelphia during the centennial, and on
hi motion the convention entered protest against
allowing intoxicating liquors to be sold on the
grounds during the celebration Of the centennial.
Mr. Nye made an explanation, that this mstter
had been talked over at the meetings OF the Com
mission at Philadelphia. 1t had been thoroughly
discussed, and it was understood by the commission
that liquors could not be legally sold on the Park.
But it seems to have been authorized. When the
commission met last May, all matters were put in
to the hand of the executive committee, who had
control of it. Some three weeks since he had re-
ceived information that liquors were to be
sold there. He had written in regard to the subject
and found that the board of Finance has granted
rights to sell beer and wine. At the next meet
ing of the commission he should protest against
it, in the name of the people of Maine.
After few remarks from one or two other
speakers, the convention adjourned to evening
EVENINO.
On motion of Mr. Nye, the name Of Hon Neal
Dow was addeu to the committee TO appear before
the legislative committee.
The following resolutions were passed
RESOLVED, That this convention protest against
the proposition before the Congress of the United
Stales for any remission of duties on the manufac
tnre of brandy from our native wines and against
any action of Congress that will favor the produce
ton of wines.
RESOLVED, That the pertnacity of the whiskey
ring in shielding the manufacturers of crooked
wbskey is an indication of the deprvity Of the
whole liquor traffic.

son, the hall being crowded by an immense audi
At the close of the mastery address, the
convention adjourned.
With the exception Of the little unpleas-
antness of the afternoon, which, however, ter
minated without any serious consequences, the
convention ran smoothly, and was successful in
every respect. Gentlemen of talent were present
to participate In the deliberations, and in point
of character no convention of the kind has assem-
bled here for some time that can excel IT.
