NEW MEXICO MIST HELP,

The New MEXICAN INDUCES the hope
that full delegation from this common
wealth will be present when the national
silver convention opens at st. Louis on
the 26th instant. Colorado has just organ
lied state silver association, some $40
business men being in attendance at the
meeting for this purpose, and the state Is
making more than ordinary preparations
to create good impression at st. Louis
on the occasion of the national conyen-
ton.
1t is not improbable that This will prove
one OF the most memorable gatherings
ever held in the west. 1t has now been
sixteen years since silver was demone-
tized, unquestionably by trick into which
congress was inyeigled by several Euro
pean powers who had axes TO grind, and
in that time it has become painfully evil
dent to the American people, especially
those of the west, that it was all griev
Gus mistake. These sixteen years have
been marked by constantly declining
prices OF staple commodities and OF all
the products of the farm and shop, and
also taking from producers OF silver over
80 per cent of their gross productions,
thereby taking that amount Of the miners
earnings for the sole benefit of the United
States treasury and increasing the amount
of all debts and fixed obligations, requir-
ing more and more pounds of wheat and
corn, and cotton, and beef, and pork, and
lead, and iron and coal to liquidate the
debts, with no definite assurance from any
source as to when this construction OF
prices will cease.
This condition of things has been traced
by the most careful observers in the world
to the decentralization of silver; to the
wanton destruction OF one-half the worlds
standard money. To undo this state OF
affairs New Mexico must lend strong
and st. ady hand. A positive demand
must be made of the 51st congress to re-
monetize silver. This undoubtedly will
be done by the st. Louis convention, and
this, together with the stand that Presi-
dent Harrison is known to have taken on
the subject ought to result in giving the
white metal its former position in this
country and, eventually, in all the nations
Ct the world. Let New Mexico have afull
delegation in the national silver conyen-
ton.

WYOMING, Arizona, Idaho and New
Mexico all want to be admitted to state
hood, and it is probable that an omnibus
bill will be presented at the next session
Of congress. To refuse them admission
collectively will not seriously hurt their
individual feelings The omnibus bill
is good idea.-Kansas City Journal.
1t may not hurt their feelings very
much collectively, but to refuse them
statehood, to which they are entitled as q
matter of right, justice and law, will hurt
their prosperity and advancement very
much individually. Anyhow, they will
make good fight for admission and take
their chances. They are Of the opinion
that they will succeed by 1892.

GIVE Us STATEHOOD.

What New Mexico wants is two I. S.
senators from the state of New MeXitO,
ald then New MeXico's needs and wishes
VIII receive speedy and prompt alten-
ton from the goyernment.-NEw MEM
CAN.
The New MEXICAN is wrong. What
New Mexico wants is more water and less
politics, more farmers and fewer poltl'
clans, improved and more extended meth
thods OF irrigation and fewer conventions
and less statehood for the present. New
MeXco's most immediate needs are
those that will be satisfied by her ener-
getic producers and business men.-Las
Cruces Democrat.
We will get more water, more farming,
more irrigation, and our producers and
business men will be more energetic and
prosperous, with statehood. Let us have
that also, 1t will naugurate an era Of
prosperity never before experienced in
New Mexico.
1t is all bosh to decry the influence OF
politics and the work of politicians. Such
work is as necessary to the prosperity OF q
state or nation as that of the business
men. True there are good and bad poll
tics-intelligent, progressive politics, and
moss-back, reactionary politics; but it can
not be said that the statehood movement
is included in the latter category. The
fact that it is a movement is in its
favor There is no such thing rs
standing still in politics nor in life.
We must either progress or retrograde.
New Mexico has progressed in popula-
ton, intelligence, industry and produc-
ton to point where she is justly emit
tied TO the privileges and blessings OF
sef-government. For q minority of poll
ticians-disappointed would-be leaders
and would-be pap-suckers of the public
treat to say she has not thus progressed
is reactionary in itself. For them to
succeed in defeating statehood, would be
to relegate us, in the estimation of the
world, to a half-barbarous or semi-civil-
lied condition. The estimation in which
the world holds us will largely control
immigration to New Mexico, as well as
the introduction of capital, which is needed
to give us more water, irrigation, farming,
and the general development of our rich,
vast and varied resources. If we have
lived there so long and have accom-
plished so little, as the opponents OF
statehood would have the world believe,
what assurance can We give immigrants
and capital that in case they come to our
aid our future would be so much better?
Those who can not, or have not helped
themselves, should not expect others to
help them. Even "God helps those who
help themselves" This question OF
statehood is indeed political question;
but it is also a question Of immediate and
personal interest to every poor man in
the territory. 1t is question which each
man may decide for himself independent
OF political parties and party control. Ii
it is your opinion that the admission OF
New Mexico into the union as state
will benefit you or your friends, you are
at liberty to vote for it, without the fear
of being boycotted by the Democratic or
any other party, to deter you. 1t is not
party question; it is a peoples ques
ton. The people must decide it,-Nogal
Npupat

A Crazy Apparjtion,

Jailer Calvin was sitting quietly reading
THE BEE in the marsnars Office when a
slight noise caused him to look up He was
startled to see standing before hin swarthy
individual, hatless, coatless and bootlcss. A
Shirt originally white. was displayed in full
outside the pantaloons.
"Whence came you and what do you
want2"
Nowhere, and don't want nothing"
AS soon as the jailer could recover from
his surprise he showed the visitor
to back cell The fellow was
evidently crazy. Investigation led to the
revelation that his name was Fletcher, and
that he was unfortunate in having him run
over by dummy train, and thereby lost por-
ton OF his brains. Since then he has been
at times SO crazy that he smashed furniture
and made his wretched home still more so.
He has about S400 in the bank, so he is not
suffering for lack of funds. Nevertheless
he has been sent to the county Jail for twenty
days as a "vagrant," that being deemed the
easiest way to dispose of him.

OLD JULES BONES.
A CHASTITY RS miniscences ofthe Days
n1 Nesneruun = lnIn.

"Everybody,' says the LusL Wyo.
Herald. has heard of old Jules the
Frenchman for whom the town of Jules
burg was named. He got into diff
Guilty with the notorious Slade, and the
latter got the drop on him when he was
sick in bed, took him out and tied him
to a post at the old Rock ranch, Il sta
tion on the old overland stage line,
eighteen miles below Fort Laramie, on
the Platte river. The inhuman Slade
then cut of Jules ears and shot him full
of holes.
He did not kill his man with the first
few shots, but put holes through his ex-
tremities first, and kept the poor
Frenchman in agony for an hour or two
before he dispatched him.
"Slade carried his victims ears in his
pockets until they became dry, and often
displayed them in saloons, and it is said
he once pawnud them for the drinks in
Cheyenne. Slade was u hard customer,
and killed many men, but was finally
taken out by Montana vigilance com
mittee and hung. His sand all left him
on this occasion, and he cried and beg
ged like child. ia. o
This spring while workmen were TAX
ing out a large irrigating ditch for the
PF ranch, they uneartheu a human
skeleton near the old Rock ranch. which
they suppose to be the bones of old Jules,
as he is the only man known to have
been buried there. There can be little
doubt of their identity. r.r !,
In truth Slade was dead tough He
was bad: to a superlative degree, cold
blooded, pitiless. dishonestand a gamb-
Ter and drunkard. t1S,had notthe least
respect for anyone, no consideration for
the rights of others and until a few min
utes before his death never evidenced
fear. He was the worst desperate on
the frontier.
Many Cheyenne men knew Slade well
| and a number including Judge Lee and
Capt. n. j. O'Brien, were on the Platte
contcmporaneously with Sladc and the
unfortunate julie.
AS the story goes Siadc insulted the
t'renchmBn and the latter Laid for
him" with shotgun and improved an
opportunity to add about pound OF
buckshot to SHADES advoirdupoise.
When the latter recovered he at once
called on the Frenchman, and after
shooting him full of holes and cutting
off his ears killed the foreigner. Nc
attempt was made to punish Slade for
this murder.
q VIM. High, the deceased eX-sheriff OF
Carbon county, was present at the Slade
iynching at Virginia City, Montana.
He told an interesting story of the affair.
Slade and his gang were in the habit OF
ralding the town in the regulation Colo
RADIO cowboy style and kept killing
people and damaging property until the
citizens declared themselves. They
captured the desperate on his next visit
and proceeded to business. Slade was
| defiant until he became convinced that
| the men were in earnest. Then he
| weakened and was strung up with
prayers for mercy on his lips.

RUSSIAN POLICE.
The Important Part They Play in the
Government of the Empire.

From George Kennan' S article in the
April Century is taken the following:
'There is probably no country in the
world where the public power occupies
n wider field, plays more important
part, or touches the private personal
life of the citizen at more points than 1T
does in Russia. In a country like Eng
land or the United States, where the
people are the governing power, the
functions Of the people are simple and
clearly defined, and are limited, for
the most part, to the prevention or the
detection of crime and the maintenance
Of order in public places. In Russia,
however, where the people are not the
governing power but hold to that power
the relation of an infant ward to a guar
dian, the police occupy very different
and much more important position.
1.-The theory upon which the govern
ment of Russia proceeds is that the citi-
zen is not only incapable of taking part
in the management of the affairs of the
country, his province, or his district,
but is incompetent to manage even the
affairs Of his own household; and that,
from the time when he leaves his cradle
and begins the struggle of life down to
the time when his weary gray head is
finally laid under the sod, he must be
guided, directed, instructed, restrained, +,
repressed, regulated, fenced in, fenced
out, braced up, kept up, and made to do
generally what somebody else thinks IS
best for him. The natural outcome of
this paternal theory of government is
the concentration Of all administrative
authority in the hands OF u few high Of
ficials and an enormous extension OF
power. Matters that in other countries
are left to the discretion of the indi-
vidual citizen, or to the judgment of a
small group of citizens, are regulated in
Russia by the minister of the interior
through the imperial police. II you are
q Russian, and wish to establish news
paper, you must ask the permission OF
the minister of the interior. II you
wish to open Sunday-school, or any
other sort of school, whether in a neg
lected slum OF st. Petersburg or in a
native village in Kamchatka, you must
ask the minister OF public instruction.
