the Mex oa l. n y in New Mexico up to
May l3, 1876" Every guaranty was
given by the Government of the United
States ia this treaty that the then owners
and they who should acquire the title
from them would be protected equally
with the citizens of the United States.
These provisions were distinctly reai-
firmed In the Gadsden treaty OF 1858.
And yet we find the land system of New
Mexico in the most inextricab'e confu-
sion. Great injustice. has been done to
the multitudes OF holders OF small prop
critics, and Mr.. Joseph's bill, carefully
aud guardedly drawn as 1t is will 90 far
towards bringing about more satisfac-
tory condition Of affairs. There is an
apparent invidiousness in the distinction
made in favor Of California as far back
as 1851 in establishing a commission to
settle the conflicting land claims in
that State, and allowing the land inter
ests of New Mexico to continue in al
most chaotic state until 1886. Many Of
the old grants that will be affected by
this bill cross the New Mexican bound
ary on either side into Arizona and Col
orado, and the proper definition Of their
lines has got to be necessity. By rea-
son of the uncertainty Of titles in the
Territory, immigration has been retard.
ed and the general prosperity OF one of
the fairest and richest OF the Territories
siriously impaired. The bill will no
doubt call up considerable opposition
from the members Of different land syn
dicates, but the measure is so intrinsic
ally Just one as to give them no equit-
able cause for their opposition.

A WAR CLOUD.
Trouble Brewing Between
Ernnce and Germany.


BERLIN, March 20.--All semi-official
organs continue to discuss the prospect
OF war of retaliation by France against
Germany. They attribute the probebil-
ity OF such action by France to an Or
ieanirt scheme. The Post declares that
Germany will hail the coming Of war
proudly resolute aud ready. All hope
Is abandoned that reconciliation be-
tween France and Germany can be
effected by peaeeable means. Germans
cannot be restrained for an hour when
the war cloud bursts. The National
Zeaung, while it admits the great pro-
gress made by the French army in re-
cent years, says that Germany has moth
ing to fear, while France is isolated from
other nations. Frenchmen, 1t declares,
cannot pardon the Germans for their
victories over them on the battlefield,
and their successful competition against
French merchants in foreign markets.
