Blackwell, one Of the candidates in
Socorro county, received q unani-
nous vote at the late election, and
states he was the only man in the
territory, thus highly bonored.
Then came the Albuquerque
Joulua1 and played him the rub
in the person Of Z. Madon, who
was elected commissions Of Valen-
cha county without a dissenting
vote.
And now we call a showdown
from Lincoln county, where politics
was all mixed up, for Judge Z. 7.

At last another lonesome pros
pcctor has caught ON. For weary
months Lon has been travelling
mountain and gulch, tracing float
and searching for blind leads with
but Indifferent success. In every
instance where Il lead showed pay
rock some one else had been there
ahead Of him and staked the claim.
At last, just as he had about CON
cludcd to abandon the camp, he
struck a ''truo blossom lead" with
pay mineral from the groupings
DOWNRIGHT at his own door. In
taking out papers patent on this
last and best find he has shown a
determination to shut off all adj

whole attention to It's development.
We are satisfied he will find the
vein an extremely rich one, and
will net him a handsome fortune.

The Ohio Republican Platform.

On another page, in this issue OF
THE TIMES, we print the admirable
platform adopted by the Republicans
Of Ohio at their late state convention.
There is in it no indication of un-
certainty or panic on the part of the
Republicans of Ohio on any question
of public policy, the much-vexed
question of liquor legislation in
cluded. On that, as on all other
political or moral issues the party is
united and firm, just as we hope to
see the Republicans of Michigan at
the forthcoming state convention.
The liquor question there as here
needed to be treated as a practical
issue, made so there by the recent
decision of the Supreme Court hold
ing the "Bond provision of the
Pond law unconstitutional, on the
ground that it is o virtual licensing
of the traffic which is forbidden by
the constitution, but the Republican
platform declares in favor of so
amending the constitution as to per-
NIT the taxing of the drinking places
under the restrictions imposed by the
Pond law; a law not unlike the
present statute of Michigan on the
same subject, though somewhat less
rigorous in its provisions. The
Sunday law is, also, affirmed, and the
determination of the Republicans to
enforce it is plain and unmistakable
in the resolution declaring for the
honest and vigorous enforcement of
all the laws on the statute books.
On the Tariff the platform is equally
satisfactory. The administration is
most cordially endorsed. A resolu-
ton to the memory of the murdered
President Garfield is appropriately
a prominent plank in the platform,
as it holds prominent place in the
hearts of his countrymen. All in all
the platform will commend itself to
the favorable notice of the Republi-
can of the nation, and upon it we
predict the Republicans of Ohio will
win n of the grandest victories that
has eve been won in that state by
any party.

two days, l retired to get an early
start the next morning. After break
fast I sailed forth to see the city in its
best dress, ready to welcome the
