Under the proposed law no amendment
can be allowed unless the party asking
the amendment makes an affidavit, cor
roborated by the aifidavit of at least one
other person not party to the suit, that
mistake of facts has been made by
him in the pleading sought to be amend
ed.
If this act becomes a law, no amend.
ments of pleadings can be granted unless
these atfidavits are filed. Amendments
should be granted in some cases when no
mistakes OF fact have been made. In
very few instances where mistakes of
fact have been made will any third person,
not party to the suit, have any personal
knowledge that such mistake has been
made, SO as to be able to make an affida-
Wit of corroboration as required by the act.
Instead of the act facilitating amendment
it lmpedes them.
In some cases where these afiidavits
could be made, the amendment ought not
to be allowed, and this act takes all dis
erection away from the court and compels
the granting OF the amendment. The
legislature can not judge of the circum
stances in each case. Some discretion
should be left in the court. Ii q sworn
pleading, such us an answer in equity or
an answer OF a garnishee should be filed,
and even if the litigant had also sworn to
the facts rs witness in the case, under
this law, after the litigant discovers that
his sworn admission will be fatal to his
case, or defense by filing these atiidavits,
he may compel the court to permit him to
retract this sworn admission and strike it
out OF the answer. The atlidavits may be
false, the court may be absolutely certain
that such is the case, and still be
powerless to refuse such an
amendment. The executive is aware Of
applications having been made for leave
to amend pleadings after protracted
trial, during which the litigant had testi-
fed in relation to the contents of the
pleading, and after the court had deliv-
cred all opinion fatal to the litigant, based
upon the sworn allegation, sought to be
eliminated by the amendment.
This knowledge leads to the belief that
this is general act for special purpose.

The following special messages were re-
ceived from the governor:
EXECUTIVE OFFICE,
Terrific of New Mexico,
Santa Fe, Feb. %, 1882
To the 2Sth Legislative Assembly.
Gentlemen: I have the honor to return
herewith, to the house in which it origi-
mated, house bill No. 179, entitled Gan
act to provide for the payment of certain
contingent expenses OF the 2Sth legislative
assembly, etc." without executive ap-
proval.
The 1st section of the bill is objettiona-
BILE because it provides for paying the ex-
penses of committee never lawfully con.
stituted, and which has incurred much
expense in the arbitrary assumption OF
powers it has been judicially held not to
possess.
The I'd section is Oil obvious at
tempt to continue certain members and
officers in the exercise of their functions
beyond the time limited by the congress
of the United States, and to add to their
emoluments in manner which is clearly
illegal. If this legislature could continue
certain of its members and employees in
place for term Of five days, it could con-
tinue all OF them--its entire organization
for an indefinite period, and pay itself
any extravagant amount from the terri
torial treasury. EDMUND G. Ross.
EXECUTIVE OFFICE,
Territory OF New Mexico,
Santa Fe, Feb. %, 1882
To the 2sth Legislative Assembly.
Gentlemen: l have the honor to re-
turn herewith, to the house in which it
originated, council bill No. 204, can act
in reference to amendments in civil cases."
without executive approval.
Section 1911 Of the Compiled Laws OF
1884 is as follows: Each party by leave
of the court, shall have leave to amend,
upon such terms as the court may think
proper, at any time before verdict, iudg-
ment or decree"
This is quite as liberal law for amend.
ment Of pleadings as exists anywhere.
This bill, instead of simplifying and per-
uniting amendments in courts Of justice,
renders them more difficult to obtain.
The court can, and In practice does gen.
orally, permit amendments, under the
present law without any affi-
dayit by either the litigants or
other person. The question OF
allowing an amendment is properly left
to the court. The court exercises its dis
erection under the circumstances of each
case, and, if 1t allows the amendment,
properly fixes the terms upon which the
same Is allowed in justice to each party.

Robert Ingersoll recently lectured
in Albany, New York. The students
of a certain college there heard him.
They were capitivated and asked
their professor whether his argu-
ments we're not unanswerablc. Here
is part of the timely and sarcastic
reply as given in lions AdUOcatc:
eyes, boys, his arguments are un-
answerable, and think the seasons
will come along and the churches
will continue TO boom; and all ma
ture will most exasperatingly and
calmly perform his functions, if
Robert Is not answered. You know
when the first steamer crossed the
Atlantic a philosopher was deliver
ing a most conclusive argument to
prove by no possibility could steam
vessel cross the ocean, and he prov
ed it, too; and no man could ans
wer it either, and that provoking
steamer came snorting, Sizing and
splurging right into the haFhor'

When Marriage is a Success.

Marriage IN its higher aspect
means this: A sympathetic union
of two hearts, souls and bodies, OF
opposite sexes, for the purpose of
affording intellectual and soulful aid
and strength to each other; union
In which each party gives of his or
her best TO aid and help the other
onward through this life and to be-
come thus fitted for the life to come;
a union of sentiment, Of work, OF
speech, of duties, by which the two
are enabled to live better lives to-
gether than either of them could
live apart; a union in seeking the
good and in doing good, In correct
ing each others errors and mistakes
and weaknesses, in showing each
other how to make the most and the
best of oneself.-K. c. Star.

A Sisters influence.

II wonder" said Mrs. Eaton,
.swhat makes Frank Sawyer so diff
ferent from Tom Blake and Bill Har-
ris. They've both got good homes
and good parents, but Tom and Bill
are as rough as young Indians, and
and never seem to know the differ
ence between the inside of the house
and out DOORS" Well, the fact was
that Frank Sawyer had two sisters,
and it was impossible to feel thatthe
"inside of the house" was the same
as the "outdoors, where the pres
ence and influence of either younger
or older sisters were constantly felt.
Said gentleman in our hearing moi
long since: Il can never tell what
nv older sister was to me all through
nv growing up. l knew nothing Of
her value to me as boy, recognized
comparatively little of it as young
man; but now that / have reached
years of maturity, 1 realize hoV
much she did to make home attract
i've and NY childhood a pleasant one.
And again, it was but little whll'
ago a lady was speaking of the gen
tie manner and unusual ability in en-
tertaining shown by a young gentle
man who had recently come into tn
community. "Oh, WE'LL" said
friend, "I'll tell you where b

A DYING State.

While the discussion over the Gre
alton of four new states is going on,
it Is interesting to note that in the
immediate neighborhood of the lusty
young commonwealth is decreplt
and bankrupt community seeking to
throw off the responsibilities of state
hood and assume again the status OF
territory, or even allow its name
and boundaries to be wiped from
the map and find solution for its
perplexlties In absorption by some
more prosperous community. Poor
old Nevada is IN a bad way, ard her
people know it and seek eagerly for
a remedy. With a complete and
costly state government and with
two senators and one congressman
at Washington her total vote in the
last general election was but 1896
and her population is new scarcely
more than 40, 900. What to do is
question that puzzles the publicists
Consolidation with California would
seem the most sensible course, bu
this would lose the Republican party

The Deadly Cucumber.

A story is going the rounds o1 the
press that is credited to Joe Mulhat-
ton, a synonym for romancer, CIV
ing sn account of freak worth OF
the vagaries of Munchausen himself,
and located in old Piheville, OF
course. We do not, however, ad-
wise our readers to raise cucumber
seeds on this plan. The story Is as
follows:
A prominent citizen of old Pine
Vile, some time ago, named Jared
Gibson, cut his hand, and cucumber
juice got into the cut. His hand COM
meneed to inaame. and an eruption
similar to eyrsipelas made Its ap-
pearance and extended up his arm,
and finally spread over his whole
body. Strange to say there was no
pain attending these eruptions OF
eyrsipelas, and he continued to gath
er and pack his cucumbers and pre-
pare them for picking. To the
great surprise Of everybody these
little pimples assumed the appear
ance and form of little cucumbers,
and continued TO grow. Although
Gibson kept well and hearty he was
compelled to stop work and take to
his bed. The doctors and quacks
t from around here visited him. One
r prescribed one thing and one anoth
r er. One wished to bleed him; one
wanted to cut the cucumbers Off
j another said not to let him have any
) water and they would dry up

in each cucumber and the.
