JUDGING from some of the Acts passed by the present session of the New Mexico legislative assenl- ply, that territory is certainly inca pablo of, nor should it be allowed, d state government; and further more, Congress should immediate ly grant to the Governor thereof. the powers of absolute veto. Its biennial mob, mixture of stupid ity and more rascality, which in- flicts its blighting presence upon that people, and by courtesy called legislature, is a disgrace to this age of sense and deccncy. However, like surely and certainly begcts like, and of a truth figs are not gather ed from thistles." The tree is rot ten-root and branch-so, of cer- tainty, must be, the fruits there ofn

,. Poor little Rouse, the United States Attorney, raised his little penny whistle voice aloft, and cried aloud for help. MT. Garland, ap- preciating the impotency of the Governments representative in Arizona, appointed Col. Wilson, of Prescott, to help the little red-head- ed fellow.
 6. Ashton was put on trial Apache county's crowd were weed ed out, and twelve men whom Ar thur Ashton had never seen, sat upon the question of his honor and character. Swinburne went upon the stand, and with the smiling face of Iago, when poisoning the mind of Othello against the fair Desde- mona, and with his heart seethihg with cowardly bitterness toward Ashton, and his benefactors-the men whose bread he had eaten under whose shelter he first slept when a green Scotch lad he came here-did his worst-hesitated at nothing. Bevans followed, and bol- stered him up. Swore he had never spoken disrespectfully of Smith, Tee, Carson or Ashton.
 Five of the best citizens of Pres colt came upon the stand and said Bevans was utterly unworthy of be- lief, and fifty more stood ready 10 do so, if permitted.
 Counsel said of Bevans that the mark of Cain was upon his brow, and the scarlet letter of infamy was branded upon his breast. Ashton, Tee and Smith were all of the de- fendant'S witnesses.
 Tie jury, bv their verdict, brand ed Swinburne and Bevans. as cou p!e of grotesque liarS-for, if what they said was true, Ashton was guilty, and he was acquitted.
 :. After the cmpanneling of the iury in Smiths case, the red-hcadcd knight, of the penny whistle voice, begged the court to permit him to nolle prosoui the case for a short time. The order was made, and will last forever.
 D. G. Harvey'S face from the jury box looked like ar earthcn mask which had been dragged from the buried treasures of IIerculaneuin d thousand years ago, such was his disgust.
 S. Carson's case was called. Al bert Miller, Phillip Martin and John Swinburne told their miserable and incoherent tales.
 Even General @ Rouse was ashamed to argue the case. With out argument the jury returned verdict of not guilty in just nine minutes. Thus ended the most op- pressive. outrageous, infamous and ill-founded prosecution that ever disgraced the name of our govern ment in Arizona.
 Rouse had no professional repu tation for skill to lose, and hence was not hurt. Col. Wilson, like an honorable gentleman, performed q disagrccable professional duty, in a delicate and courteous mannc: and there's no sting left behind. He never had confidence, and did not desire hope, in the cascs-simply discharged his duty and nothing more.
 The Marshal plainly showed his cloven foot-but the strength ot de- fendant's cases crushed it flat. It mortilics us, as American citi- zens to know, that under our sys- tenn, q characterless creature like Bevans. can start the judicial ma chinery of the government in mo- ton, through the willing aid of either an incompetent or assinine prosecuting attorney, for the pur- pose of expressing and harrassing humble, but honoral ie, American

A Huge Meteor.

The Virginia Enterprise tells of an
immense meteor which passed over
the Comstock, as follows:
Superintendent <. d. Boyle, Of
the Alta nine, says the meteor
seemed 10 pass over Gold Hill, in
which town he was at the time. The
celestial visitant moved from west to
east. and rendered the whole town
and surrounding hills as Ugh. as day.
Apparently it was as large as a -four
barrel. When some distance east OF
the tosn the meteor broke ia two,
one part falling directly to the ground.
The other half moved onward for a
time, aud then burst into fragments
ike a rocket. The meteor had no
tail and left no train behind it, No
report followed the bursting Of the
fre-baii Mr.. Boyle SAYS it did not
appear to him TO be more than a
thousand feet above the surface Of
the earth, aud the hight emitted was
a. brilliant and colorless as that Of
an electric arc lamp.

The end of the third week finds the
Western association teams in three
groups, st. Paul and Omaha being in
the first; Sioux City, st. Joseph, Den
yer, Minneapolis and Des Moines in the
second, and Milwaukee alone in the
third. The Cream City team is rapidly
dropping out of the fight altogether, and
unless itSteadies down in its home games
which begin to-day, its chances for the
pennant will have gone glimmering be-
fore June Is. The clubs weaknesses
are two-in the box and in team work.
Sutton is an old ball player, but some
how he hasn't taught the youngsters
under his care to make the most OF their
opportunities. Morrissy, Herr, Cross
ley, Lowe and POorman are excellent
men in the field, and Shenkel and
Griffith good pitchers. 1t ought to be a
pretty easy matter to construct a fine
team from this nucleus. Sioux City,
St. Joseph, Denver, Minneapolis and
Des Moines appear about evenly
matched, and it would take
good guesser to pick the
winner from the quintette. st.
Paul and Omaha have so far SO badly
outplayed all competitors that it looks
to a man up tree as though these two
were plainly in too slow company. The
season is young yet, however, and it
may be that the present leaders will be
given hard tussle in their struggle for
the flag. The latest figures show that
only three clubs have won majority of
the games played. The record of games

and tie fall was so heavy at the fourth

test was close and pretty throughout,
resulting in favor of Omaha by the
score of to 3. Cleveland got base Oh
balls in four different innings, and was
three times sent over over the plate on
subsequent hits, thus settling the game
in favor of the Nebraskans. Outside of
a couple of fumbles by Walsh, the field
ing was almost perfect on both sides.
The Denver outfeld retired ten men on

there will be two games. The score
