C. k. WILLIAMS I:E,IGNS.

The following information We glean from the Albuquerque Journal;
 "lt would seem srtlage indeed, il such d man as C. k. Williams ha, been, were allowed to depart from Albuquerque without some word as to what ne ms done for our metropolis.
 MT. Williams ha, been railroad man for upwards of thirteen years, four of winch he spent in the employ of the Atthi,on, Topeka X Sln,a Fe before accepting hls present position. MT. William, l, li every sense self m1dc maa, wno gained hls present position through his own, ulaided ei forts, and not through any specie, of favOrltl,m or mUneyed inf IenCe. He began at the bottom oi ( lad fer and bravely climbed as many round, as independent ability could com, mand. First a telegraph operator and assistant 10 d station agent, he next filed d succession of positions of m. creaslng rank m the general freight otflreS oi the leading railroads. He Was valued emplOyc of the Toledo, Peoria x Warsaw railroad, which now forms part of the great Wabash sys tem, from 1871 to 1877, and after, wards served the Chicago & Lake Huron road, with distinction, Tor about a year. For about four years and a half after this, he was with the great Banana Line, GA J. x s F., ) and gained the confidence and esteem oi the leading officials of the company. He came to Albuquerque almost as soon as the railroad reached us, from Topeka, Kansas, and has been a resi- dent oi this city from that day to this. He early saw that the town wa, soon to grow Into the most imp )rtant city of the southwest and he took an active part Tn forwarding its every in tereSt. Every object that looked 10 the material advancement of our me. tropollS met hls hearty support and wherever and whenever he has been called upon II has been q pleasure to him 10 respond with every ald in hls power.
 MT. Williams has made, by his courteous treatment, thousands of friends not only among our business men, but among those wllh whom he had but a passing acquaintance. His administration Ot the office that he has just vacated as Is shown by the high estimation in which he Is held in railroad circles, has been marked by constant attention 10 hlS duties, to, gether with q desire to make a buoi ness friend of every merchant in our city.
 Wherever (. R. Williams may here. after be called, he may rest assurel that the best wishes ot a whole host of friends go with hlm and that the Journal will watch with great deal Of interest for his promotions, which are sure to come"
 During our brief career oa the line of the A. X P we have had consid erable business with Mir Williams. As al eff he has filled his position with honor to himself and great cred it to the company he represents. All the business men along the line Of the road will sincerely regret his de. parture, and the CHAMPION wishes him a continued life of prosperity and happiness. |

Cleveland and Bayard have been In
everybody's mind the last week as
probable nominees OF the Democratic
Convention al Chicago next Tuesday.
Gov. Cleveland, We think, would have
been nominated without any hesita-
tion on the part OF tie convention had
it not been for considerable opposition
in his own state which has appeared
during the week. Bayard's strength
will increase as CleveIand's decreases.
There is also considerable talk, $50
the dispatches inform us, of fnomina-
ting the old ticket despite Mr.. TiIden's
letter of dec!ination. But 1t Is well
enough to warn our readers that the
associated press dispatches are to be
taken with grain of allowance as
has been shown on more than one oc-
casion. What a contrast there would
be between such man rs Bayard,
Cleveland or Mcdonald, and Blaine
No intelligent true patriot could hes
tate about how to vote.

rnE GERMAN nErrnIIcaS PAPERS

The revolt of the Gsman republic
cans against Blaine Is one Of the most
important developments Of the past
month. In Brooklyn the F,sie Presse,
the leading German republican paper
of the east, has repudiated the
nomination. aud vigorously opposes the
election Of Blaine. at the other end Of
the state the Rochester Daily A6ead
Post, an independent paper with strong
republican leaning, pronounces the nom
ination unfavorable for the republicans,
and says that "Blaine will hardly get
any considerable number of German
votes." In Chicago the .Staats-Zeit,4Hg.
always a republican paper, refuses to
support Blaine. In s.. Louis the Vest.
Ech> Post. vigorous supporter Of tho
republican party hitherto, has bo.sed.
In Milwaukee ths Herald, lh, mo.t Ia
auential and widely y-circulaled German
paper in the northwest and always re-
publican, has announced that il will not
support Blaine, and that it will support
democratic candidate like Cleveland or
Bayald, without prejudice to its re.
turn to the republican party in future
campaigns under worthier leadership.
The republicans havs always hitherto in
Presidential campaigns had the hearty
support of the German element repre-
sented by such papers as these, and the
Importance of its loss cannot easily be
overestimated.
