The Case in 4 Nutshell.

The circumstances of bolt In the
republican convention on Tuesday, are
very simple and should beunderstood
BY all the people. II was well known
to everyone that two contesting dele
cations were present from San Miguel
county, one headed by LOrepzO Lopez
and enc by Eugenio Romero and both
containing influential citizens of that
county. So at the opening Of the cOpz
vontiou the usual motion was made by
Mr.. Tiffany, Of SoOorro, that no con-
testing delegations he allowed seRts
until the case had been considered and
acted on by the convention. This ia
the universal rule in every political con-
ventiOn in every state and territory, and
has always been the rule here. The
only convention where any other meth
cd is used are the national conventions,
which are so very large that in order TO-
do the business ct all, it is necessary TO
have contests considered before Ihand
by the national committee.
1t would obviously be unjust that In
case of two conteatipg delegates with
equal apparent claims, either ono
should be admitted to the exclusion Of.
the other, before their cases are consid-
cred, thus letting one act in deciding
its own case.
Mr. Tifany's motion naturally was
eEpsOted to pass without any opposi-
ticn, but the Ryncrson delegates, show
ed great heat about the matter, and
seemed determined to give seats to one
branch of the contestants (the Romero
Hide) in advance Of the organization Of
the convention. They voted sOlidly
against the resolution, evidently ex-
pecting to defeat it, but tho result
showed forty-eight in its favor to forty
two against. TheTsupon Col. Ryner-
sons friends. apparently thinking that
this fOreshadOwed his dpal defeat,
marched out Of the convention they
had hoped to control.
That is all there is of it,
If they had not determined before
hand to rule or to rain, they would of
course have waited at any rate to SEQ
what the action Of the committee on
credentials would be.
A more utterly unjuStiAable and in
exOusable bolt was never committed by
sane men.-N. NJ. Review.

Contrast.

Two years ago, Judge Prince was de-
feated in the Republican convention,
and under circumstances which at least
we're very aggravating to his friends.
In less than = minute he was on the
aOoF at the convection moving to make
the nomination Of his antagonist unan-
imous in order that harmony should
prevail. We quote his words used in
making this motion:
II do this in the interest Of harmony,
to promote unity Of action among re-
publicans, and to aid in establishing
that good feeling in the party which il
essential to success.
The party il greater than any Of its
members, and the triumph Of its prin-
CiPlss paFamOunt to all personal coRHid-
erations. When 3 contest between
those Of one political household is over,
they should join in earnest support Of
the chosen candidate, in order TO in
sure a unity viciOry over the common
fos,p
After the convention he came home
to Santa Fe, Was president Of the Re-
publican county association, made
speeches and wrote articles for Mr.,
Luna, and this county was the only one
in which there was a contest where tho
Luna majority was increased.
Now, in the Republican convention
of this year, Judge Prince had the ma
jority, and Col, Rynorson was in tho
position in which tho Judge found him-
self two years ago. Did he move 10
make the nomination unanimous in the
interests Of harmony Did he show
any desire to promote success through
unity7 If not generous or magnani-
mous did he even quietly acquie1os ia

Among the other methods OF cele-
brating WashingtOn's Birthday,
that Of giving dances Is one Of the
most popular in the country.
Whether the exercise Is the best
method Of keeping alive the MEM
Ory Of a great and good man we are
not prepared to say, yet ii seems
those who enjoy prancing about to
the notes of the fiddle are Of that
way of thinking and never let the
important occasion slip by without
indulging. Some Of the young men
Of our city considered it q fitting
time for giving a grand social hop,
and for that purpose issued invita-
tiOns to the public early in the week.
The ball took place last night in Cam
mons Hall, and the attendance was
all that could be expected. The
dance season is gradually drawing to
a close and that is one reason that
the parties draw 50 well. Those
having the management Of this af-
fair did all in their power to make
the occasion one long to be remem-
bered by the participants, and sue
ceeded admirably.

AN item has gained circulation
through the channel of some over
jealous paper giving the dis
tances to the mines from various
points on the railroad, in which Spo-
kane Falls is put down at $50 miles
from Eagle City, and other places at
shorter distance until the trip is cut
down to 80 miles. Despite of this
false statement, made for the purpose
Of misleading strangers, those who
wish to get into the mines with the
least difficulty and hardship come to
Spokane Falls to make the trip. At
the present time there is no good
trail into the mines. When we say
this it must he understood that we
do so on account of the terrific storm
that has ragged hereabOuts for some
days, which has had the effect Of ma
king all the routes difficult to trav-
eL However the impediment is
only temporary, and in few weeks
the spring thaw will erase some Of
the snow and ice. When that
change takes place it will be dis
covered very rapidly from what
point access can be gained to the
mines with the least difficulty. We
have no fears regarding the access
ibility Of the mines from Spokane
Falls. Men are now out making
surveys and preparing for the neces-
sary grading to lay out direct stage
road from the Post to Eagle City, a
continuation of the road from this
plal e, and when in shape, which will
be in only short time after work is
practicable, Spokane Falls will have
two routes into the mines, one by
the way Of the lake and another over
land, with stages running directly
into the camp. The new road rJsses
the river but once, and that near
Eagle City. In the spring, when
other roads will be impossible from
swollen streams, the traveller will
find a direct route from Spokane
Falls to the mines with a distance
not over 20 miles, that will be made
in easy riding coaches In few
hours.

We acknowledge the receipt from
c. w. ROwell, LIST Lieutand Adjutant
End Inft. Post Adjutant Of Ceur
d'Alene, Of a letter and couple OF
tickets Of admission to the Post
Theatre upon the occasion Of theat-
rical performance at that place. The
letter states that programme is en-
closed. As the writer only sent the
tickets, and the cards not having the
date of the proposed dramatical ex-
hibition we are not prepared to say
when the performance is tn take
place. We have been informed that
the entertainments arranged and
carried out by the boys in blue at the
Post are always meritOrious and Of
a superior character, and we hope
in this instance they will play to
crowded house. We are under
obligations to the gentlemen who so
kindly sent the tickets, and only re-
gret that we are unable to give the
date of the show.

We believe it is about time for the
city to invest in buildings for muni-
cipal purposes. Our town has never
been taxed for improvements, IL ut
all, and in the face Of the develop
ments Of the past year it is not out Of
place to suggest that some arrange
ments be made for the future. The
town has no Jail, nor no public hall
in which to hold the meetings OF the
Board. Would it not be well for the
Council to at once secure a centrally
located lot, and arrange for the con-
struction Of buildings absolutely
necessary. II this important matter
is left for future years the cost Of
property would make the improve
ment burden, while at the present
time 1t could be done at small ex-
pense. What is needed Is a public
town hall. Next summer some kind
Of fire department must be organ
lied, as we have been without 1t too
long already, and house will have
to be built for its accommodation
Let a good sized brick building be
constructed, with an engine house
and substantial Jail on the ground
floor and couple of halls on the
second. While this addition would
be a marked improvement to the
city at the same time it would be
supplying long felt want. Let our
COuncilmen consider this and II they
are not willing to take hold Of the
proposition let 1t be submitted to II
vote of the people in conjunction
with the city election that takes
place in April.
