Here stands New Mexico. rich In
pastural and mineral resources. and
"A large share Of eastern capital
afraid TO invest n dollar. because of the
general belief that the territory is a
vast checker board OF disputed, and
fraudulent land grants. This Is the
question that is vital 10 New Mexico.
We want a delegate who will devote
ali his energy and and ability to press.
ing and pushing the settlement Of the
land grant question ON the attention of
the administration and congress. until
1t has reached q 6nh isspe--until the
last legitimate grant Is irrevocably con-
firmed, fraudulent grants ripped up. and
the doubtful ones forever set ut rest
1Punoe is pledged to this; the platform
on which he stands is commit sd to
1t. The RANGE believes Rynerson
woulddo the, saRe thing. We nope
we are c4ddiA Enough, to admit +,
and that he would lsave some higher
object In view. Thanksgiving imaginary
rings and alleged steals, as rebese scented
by the mud fingers who have attached
themselves TO his cause.
Blaine will be the next president.
and the material interests OF the ter
ritOry demand that o IT delegate should
be a republican-and one who would
command the sympathy and cooper.
alton of the administration.
While the RANGE has been from the
beginning. from personal preference,
for Prince. 1t would have given Ryner-
son a cordial support had he been the
the regular nominee. But here is the
situation. Two republican candidates.
and one democratic. II is possible that
the unwarrahted and beastly abuse of
Prince. may make Prince enough de-
mocratic votes to overcome the repub-
lean losses. IL is not probable
The wal among ourselves Is likely to
inure 10 the benit OF Joseph, with the
defeat Of both Prince and Rynerson.
Can this DO avertedY Can Prince AMI
Rynerson agree upon some sort of
compromise, to be maintained now and
hereafter. A little m~agnaminity by
either or both of them. will not be lost
on the public In the future. 1t never
is. Republican harmony is wanted.
Any other course is suicidal. But If IL
must be as it Is; IL no reconciliation
can be had ii 1t is wal among our
selves, the RANGE will be found doing
what 1t may to advance the inter ests
of Prince, as the regular nominee OF
the party. And this too, without per-
sonal abuse. but in the presentation OF
facts which may. in u measure, con
tribute to Princes vote to such AN ex.
.ent that, IL he should not be elected,
ne would ut least DO indicated before
