Lave Rudabaugh, one of the we'll
known hard characters of New Mexico
who escaped the gallows by the last
Jail delivery from Santa Fe, visited the
Office Of the chihuahua Mail a few
days ago and announced his intention
of coming back to this territory and
giving her "aiother whirl." If Dave
c0mes back there are the strongest
chances that the "whirl" will be that
of his suspended body. 1t is not likely
that he will come back, however. He
Is too we'll known here to make the
climate agreeable to his health.

HARVEST DEMONSTRATIONS.

A couple OF weeks ago Mr.. Tallmage, OF
matters, after taking an accoun OF stock,
so to speak, of the wheat crop of 1882 and
making a survey OF the wheat belt and es-
|tlmating the prospect for 1888, figured on,
a probable decrease compared with last
years production of about 100000 bu-
shells. A week later the Agricultural De
partment at Washington went oyer the
same ground and figured out the probable
decrease compared with last year of y,
600 900 bushels And thereupon the bulls
and bears of the various boards Of trade
and stock boards simulate sudden excite
ment, declare that the usual wheat export
abroad for the year Will be almost entirely
cut off, that the balance of trade will turn
against us, that the influx of gold will no
only cease but the current will be turned
outward, resulting in tight times in tn,
money market, business depression, stop
page of manufactures, and, IN short tina
the country will be fortunate If 1t escapes {
regular 1873 commercial revulsion ant
smash up.
Sober business men, however, before 20
ing into tremors over these premature va
ticinations that are mainly gotten up fo
consumption among the gram gambler
and stockholders, will examine them with
suspicious caution. For instance, the fore
cast processes only 10 refer to the winte
