If any good reason can be offered why
the Board of Education should not be en-

opposing it should speak it out. The ad-

will be a more democratic and represen-

every respect advance public interests
They have no axes to grind, nor selfish in

they are entitled to know wherein. The

Town and County.
additional Local on Seooad Page.

SOME persons in town, wholly for sell
fish and mercenary reasons, are earnestly
working to defeat the enlargement OF the
Board of Education to six members. No
good reason is offered by any of them
The only reason, indeed, that any of them
offer is that it is difficult to get three men
to serve, which is not true. Never an
election but rival candidates are in the
field. and sometimes the rivalry is very
animated. That is not the real reason
If these persons will be candid with the
People-if they will fairly announce the
motive that prompts their opposition to
this measure-short work viii be made of
their opposition and of them.

EDUCATING THE INDIANS.
A Modified Form Of the American Com
mon School System for the Red
Mans Sons.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 2.-T. S. Morgan,
commissioner of Indian affairs, has elab.
Grated system OF education designed to
reach all Indian youths of school age now
under control of tie Indian bureau. 1t is
practically the American school system
adapted to the special requirements OF the
Indians. 1t contemplates day schools,
primary or home schools, grammar schools
aid high schools. 1t is also regulated so
that promotions can be made from grade
to grade, and from schools of low order
to those of a higher. 1t is to be non-par-
tisan and non-sectarian, and teachers are
to be employed and dismissed solely on
the base of efficiency or ineiliciency.
The industrial feature is to receive
special prominence. The outing sys-
tenn, by which pupils are placed in
white families and attend public
schools, is to be encouraged whenever
practicable. 1t is proposed to develop the
foil high school course in at least three
Indian schools, Carlisle, Haskell and
Cheyenne, and others as fast as needed.
These high schools are to take rank in
equipment and character of work done
with similar institutions for white people.
The scheme contemplates the organiza-
ton of perhaps twenty-five grammar
schools, fifty primary or home schools.
and enough day or camp schools to reach
all who can not be brought into the board
ing schools. Congress will be asked to
make sufficient appropriation TO enable
the Indian off e nt mn e=sly Gay to bring
every Indian youth OF school age that can
be reached under proper Instructions.

Remnant of q Herd.

CLAYTON, N. ~, Oct 20.-RobertC Clark,
of the neutral strip, brought into town to-
day 5-months-old buffalo bull, which he
captured some time ago on the Beaver,
sixty miles east OF Clayton. While hunt
ing he and q companion ran into seven
head of bufialos, live COWS, q bull and the
little fellow brought in to-day. The COWS
escaped, but the bull was run down and
killed, which proved to be an excellent
specimen Of former decades when Indians
and these long haired bovine alone were
lords of the plain. In the flesh Of the old
fellow were found seventeen bullets, only
to meet his fate at last. These are the
remnant of herd which have for years
run on the Coldwater, q wild, uDinhabited
part of the country, and this winter they
too must succumb to the guns of the hum
ters who are now looking for them. The
calf will be shipped north by express to-
night, having been sold for $500 to Trini-
dad parties.

GOV. PRINCES REPORT.
Settlement OF Land Titles, Education and
Irrigation Of Our lands.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 2.-Gov. Prince, O.
New Mexico, in his annual report, call.
special attention to the subject Of land
titles. In reviewing the history of con.
gressjonal action'in the matter. lie saws
Matters were in very unsatisfactory
condition, and the late surveyor general
made them worse by ende lvoring to un-
settle few things that were supposed to
be determined by taking up cases that
had been settled twenty-five years agp,
and, without notice to any one, reversing
The decision OF the surveyor general who
heard the case, and declaring the testi-
mony insufficient and the grant invalid.
so long rs uncertainty regarding titles
prevails no one vii buy from any one, and
the improvement of the country is con-
stantiy retarded"
The governor urges the establishment
of tribunal exclusively for hearing these
claims and the settlement Of titles. The
governor answers at some length the
statement made by persons opposed to
the admission OF the territory, especially
regarding illteracy. He shows that while
the native population is more or less
ignorant, it is not true of avery Large pro-
portion OF people, The ratio OF illiteracy
has been reduced 20 per cent during the
last five years. He makes an earnest plea
for admission into the union. Upon the
subject OF water supply and irrigation the
governor says the people feel that it is as
much the business of the government to
render valuable immense areas now used |
for cultivation as it is TO improve harbors
or rivers. While hoping for government
aid private enterprise has not been idle,
and during tine past year several corpora
tons have been formed for the purpose
OF irrigation. Cattle raising has been in
Il depressed condition throughout the year
on account of low prices. 8

Here's q Pretty Mess.

LONDON, Nov. 2.-Aclion was brought
to-day by Mrs. John w. Mackay against
the Manchester Enquirer for libel. The
libel complained of is that the plaintiff
was. poor widow, with two children
that she was employed as washerwoman
by Nevada miners when Mackav fell in
love and married her. Plaintiff contends
that the words Of the article suggested
that she was not lady by birth or edu-
cation, and that she was not accustomed
to associating with persons OF good posi-
ton. The defendants admit the first
inuendo and deny the second. The de-
PENDANTS had paid 9l0 into court. The
question before the court to-day was
whether the payment applied to the
whole libel Or the inuendo admitted.
The court ruled that it applied only to
that part admitted.

Merchants and others are hereby re-
minded that the New MEXICAN is pre-
pared to do their printing on short notice
and at reasonable rates. Much of the job
printing now going out Of flown should
come to the New MEXICAN Office. There
in no better excuse for sending out Of
town for printing than there is for sending
away for groceries or clothing. Our mer-
chants should consider these things. The
New MEXICAN is acknowledged the lead
ing paper of this section. The patronage
of the people will enable us to keep it so.
