The Mexican population of Socorrc
don't wish a public school and since
the election by which the district was
organized, these people have been cir
culating a petition asking the county
commissioners to set said election aside
rs of no effect. OF course the com
missioners cannot lawfully do this but
the attempt to have 1t done shows the
disfavor with which the native popula-
ton view the free school system. OF
course in isn't the Mexican as a parent
and citizen who so persistently objects
TO being educated but rather the Mexi-
can as a Catholic ruled by the priest
The native iuhabitant of New Mexico
cannot become a progressive citIzsn un-
tall he crawls from under the crushing
band of the priest, bot ibis be is rapidly
DOING as may ee 5osed With pleasure.

When young women marry old men
for money and having gotten the pro-
perty coveted into their own hands
take prompt and criminal measures to
get rid Of the personal incumbrance it
Is not surprising, but when the case is
reversed as it WAS at Flesherton. Ou-
tarlo, this month, everybody is aston.
ished. In this case an old cripple in
iuced a young lady to insure her life
to a large amount in his favor and
then to marry him and after the wed
ding the old reprobate administered a
dose Of strychnine to the BRIDE and
made application for the insurance
money. The old chad was not as eau
tious in closing the programme as he
was in inauguratnig it and he rests in
the bastile. Young women must be.
ware of those old codgefs. They are
very bad.

Clifton, Arizona, is losing none of its
credit for being the toughest place IN
this southern country. About the first
OF the month the stage was held up and
robbed nearthe town and on the same
day the president and manager of the
Detroit Copper company was robbed
ana .brptally beaten by two ruffians
who entered his office for the purpose,

have cash enough on hand to satisfy
them. IA slight attempt is being made
TO effect the arrest of the offenders but
it will likelylprove futile.
