4 GOOD MAN TALKS.
Judge s. B. Axtell, of Santa Fe, OF
whom there can be much good said about,
and whose big brain is ever at work in
the right direction, occupied a seat in the
editorial sanctum OF the leading daily OF
New Mexico this morning for about an
hour, and talked in his pleasant, sensible
way, of the different affairs OF the terri
tory, and occasionally touched on the
political outlook Of New Mexico. In an
swer to the reporters question, he stated
that Gov, Princes appointment was salts
factorily accented by the people and he
thought that he was the right man in the
right place. Gov. Prince he said is
progressive man, whose executive ability
will do great deal toward bringing the
territory into statehood, and will help to
place the political affairs OF our country
IN better condition generally.
The appointment of James A. Sprad-
ling he said, was not a surprise to the
people, who are glad that lie received it.
The opinion OF those at Santa Fe, who
claim to know what they are talking
about, is that Z. A. Fiske will he APP
pointed to fill the position OF United
States district attorney, and that he would
fit the place to IT. -
Judge Ira Leonard, OF Socorro, is
strongly indorsed and spoken of as the
successor Of Judge Brinker through it
is uncertain as yet who will be the next
Judge OF that district.
In coming to the matter Of secretary OF
the territory, Judge Axtell, stated that the
appointment by President Harrison of
W. D. Kistler, OF the Optic, would be the
right thing, and would suit the people, so
for as he could learn, throughout the ter
ritory. He says that Mr.. kistler's sub
stantal help to the Republican party for
many years, entities him TO recognition,
and will undoubtedly be considered favor
ably by the appointing power at Wash
ington.
Judge Axtel visited the springs this
afternoon and will return home on this
evenings train.-Las Vegas Optic.
THE NEW CLERK
Says the Albuquerque Citizen: The re-
moval OF a. f, Walker to Santa Fe leaves
a great big vacuum in the social and bust
ness circles Of this city, nowhere more
noticeable than in the Masonic orders
In the commandery he was one of the
mainstays Tor work" Mr.. Walker is Il
very quiet, methodical man, but untiring
in the iulhllment OF duties and RESPONSE
bilities. Such men are rarely appreciated
in community until suddenly removed .
They 90 about their daily work so quietly
that their fellows take their labors as a
matter Of course.
