The 4th at Rinconada q

RINCoNADA, July 5, 1901 will ven.
ture to say that in no town or village of
the country was the 4th more enthu-
siastically celebrated than at Rinconada,
Rio Arriba county. At O'Clock p. M,
between 200 and 800 people had assem-
bled at the store of Mr.. Thos. McQuiston,
bent on showing their respect for Inde-
pendence day. Refreshments, consisting
OF cakes, nuts, candy and lemonade
were served, and soon after the exer-
cises began with an eloquent prayer by
Mrs. Thresher, who, in quiet way, is
doing immeasurable good among her
Mexican and Indian neighbors as physi-
clan and missionary. A stirring address,
the Declaration of independence, was
then delivered by Mr.. Thos. McQuiston,
the enthusiasm of the orator was height
ened by the fact that one of his hearers,
Miss May Railey, is llneal descendant
of the sister Of Thos. Jefferson, the author
of the Declaration.

Martinez made patriotic speeches which
were greatly appreciated by the audience.
Senorita Eliza Lopez, pupil of the Pres
byterian mission school in Santa Fe, read
very impressively the twenty-third psalm.
Music was literally interspersed through
out the program, and Master Hallet Gal

delight of his hearers.
A burro race, foot race and sack race
came later on the program, making much
sport for the spectators.
At the conclusion of the races it was
dark enough to display the fireworks to
advantage, and so the Roman candles
and rockets shot into the air. Many
were filled with amazement and wonder,
never having seen anything of the kind
before.
Last came the bonfire, tons of grease
wood and cacti having been previously
collected for the purpose. 1t was perfect
in its way. The flames and sparks leaped

A Card From Mr.. MOntOya.

TO the Editor OF the New Mexican
SANTA FF, N. NJ, July 6, 189J.-Sir
Referring to your article concerning the
escape of convict Anthony, in which it
appears as if had not complied with my
duty as an officer OF this institution, beg
leave to say, in the first place, the state
ment in your paper in regard to the meas
ures taken for the capture of the escaped
prisoner is not correct. For instance.
you say than | could have had one guard
on horse and followed the prisoner
Allow me to state that the institution has
only two horses and they were used at the
time in town, one by the captain of the
guards and the other by the superintend-
ent himself. Am supposed TO bring
about miracles, and have horses at nv
command i'll minute? As far as what
you say of sending guards after the pris-
oner, will say that only had three guards.
Immediately sent two of them after the
escaped prisoner. [ had to take out of
the cell house the cell keeper to send
him. too, SO it left me with one guard to
protect the institution. | also borrowed
TWO mules, one to 60 on after the pris-
oner, and one | sent with trusty to
notify the captain at the federal building,
so that he could come with the horse, as
| saw the mules were not of any use. as
one bucked off the guard that mounted it.
l had to employ teamster to stand guard
with me over the prisoners as fifteen of
them we're out i'll the yards and fifty in
side OF the prison. | stood guard myself
with gun until the other guards came in
from town. | thought at the time it was
better for me to stay and watch sixty-fye
prisoners and prevent them from escap.
ing than to have followed the prisoner on
foot. There is no truth in the statement
that the guard saw the prisoner when he
was running off.
After giving you this explanation,
hope you will do me justice, as | have
tried to do the best could under the cir
to prevent the prisoners es-
cape. Respectfully, J. NJ. MoNroYA,
Asst. Supt. n. NJ. p. !
With reference to the above it may be
proper to state that Warden Wynkoop
has made q full report OF the circum-
stances attending Anthonys escape to
the board of managers, and that he ex-
onorates Mr.. Montoya from blame in the
premises.

WASHINGTON NOTES.
PROBING POWELL.

WASHINGTON, July 8. There was
very lively discussion of the irrigation
question in the room of the senate com
mittee on appropriations yesterday. Near
ly all the western senators, including
Teller, Casey, Allen, Paddock and Stew
art were present. There was some yer,
sharp criticisms OF Gen. Powell's doings
and it begins to look as if the proposed
appropriation might be cut down or wiped
out entirely.
THE TARIFF.
The promised meeting of the Repub
lican members of the senate finance com
mittee to discuss proposed amendments
to the tariff bill has been postponed in
definitely. Mr.. Morrill, and Mr.. Aldricf
have gone over the bill, and they viii
suggest some important changes iI
phraseology, but the more importan,
matters, such as the reciprocity amend
ment of Mr.. Hale, will not be taken ur
until the bill is up for discussion in the
senate.
ELECTRICITY AND THE CENSUS.
Census Supt. Porter has informed the
Republican leaders that the first count OF
the population of the country may be
completed by the lst Of August. This is
what is termed in the census office "the
rough count" but it is all that is neces-
sary as basis for reapportionment of
congressman among the several states.
Should it be completed by the lst of Aug
ust it will be an unprecedented achieve
ment. The returns are coming In from
the supervisors much more promptly than
ever before. For example, only one re-
turn was in the census office on July | +,
1880, whereas on July /, 1890, several
thousand had been received. But it is
the adaptation OF electricity to the tabula-
ton OF the returns which makes the CEN
sus office promise such speedy results.
The most expert worker in the census Of
flee in 1880 could tabulate only 5000
or 4 900 names day, but with
the electrical counting machinery now
in use, the average worker can count
from 10000 to 10000 names day, the
maximum being $4,000. The census
office is now tabulating 100000 day,
which, allowing for all delays, recounts
and other accidents, would enable the
census superintendent to lay the returns
OF population before congress on August /.
Whether the reapportionment shall then
be made, or at least attempted, is as yet
undetermined in the Republican councils.
Chairman Quay and the Republican
managers count great deal in the cal
culation for 1890 upon the new electoral
votes of the northwest. They count all
the new states as surely Republican, so
they reckon upon nineteen votes, North
Dakota 3, South Dakota 4, Montana 3,
Wyoming 8, Idaho 3, Washington as
absolutely certain to be added to the Re-
publican column. Besides this they count
on the census returns to give the Repub-
llcans from ten to twenty more new elec-
toraI votes than the Democrats.

this as well as other things

not have TO wait long to be convinced OF
its impractieability. But neither private
munificence nor private enterprise need
wait upon the passage OF bill through

the great composers Is produced In man
