The Santa Fe Democratic Ring Touring
The Territory.
1t is useless to expect any needed leg
islation from the New Mexico lawmakers
this coming session. Their time will be
principally occupied in settling which po-
litical party shall organize and control
that body. The theft of ballot box in
Santa Fe county containing the bal
lots and poll books OF Republican pre-
cinct, will stimulate the Democratic
member to determined fight to make
that branch of stealing legitimate. In
the meantime, the interests of our peo-
pie will suffer and the territory will take
several steps to the rear. Ration Range.

Acting on the suggestion of the Citizen
Gov. Thomas has appointed two commits
sioners to fill the vacancies existing in
Santa Fe county, caused by the abscond-
ing OF the commissioners to escape the
penalties Of their acts in that county at
the recent election, as ordered by Judge
Seeds. The governor has done nothing
more than his duty in the premises.
Where vacancies exist in county Offices
he is empowered to appoint. The Santa
Fe county commissioners having fed the
county to escape the penalties attach
ing to their acts, their positions were GER
tainly vacant, Common sense suggests
this view Of the case. Ii their Offices
were not vacant, how long would these
officers have to remain away from the
territory in hiding to make them vacant

Won MoItke's Birthday
w York Ledger.

From New York Ledger.
There are two remarkable features
in the career of Count Won Moltke,
whose Goth birthday will, on the 26th
of October, be fittingly celebrated by
his grateful countrymen. He Is a
soldier of fortune, who by personal
merit and without any help from
family influence, has arisen, not In a
repu bile, but in q monarchy, to the
highest military rank. In the second
place, his opportunity of proving his
talent for directing military opera
tions came to him very late in life, at
an age when the race of most great
captains has been run.
He was by birth a German, but his
father having lost his property and
moved to Holstein, young Moltke
was Danish subject when he APP
Piled for commission In the Prussian
army. He was from the outset an in
| defatigable student of the military
art, but for more than a dozen years
| after he entered the Prussian army
| the prospect of advancement seemed
hopeless. Finally he left Prussia in
| despair, and, preceding to Turkey,
accepted a commission from the sui
tan, and took part in the Syrian cam
paIgns against Ibrahem Pasha.
1t was the publication of the histo-
ry of the Turco-Egyptian war, on his
return to Germany, which aroused
public attention., and procured for
him an important place on the Prus-
| sian General staff. Here his capa-
| bllitIes soon compelled recognition,
and he rose rapidly, but still the
opportunity of taking a per ,orrl uari
in active service on European battle
fields was lacking. Throu nouG the

ing the defects alike of the Aus ian
and the French military orpaniza.
tons. He turned this knowIed ge tc
account, and during the ensuing years
carried out thorough recon structior
of the Prussian army.
The efficiency of the military in
strument which the great stra egist
had wrought, was first tested in 1864
during the war against Denmark
which he not only planned, but help
ed to execute. To him belongs tn,
whole conception o. the remarkabl,
campaign of 1866, which resulted IL
the discontinue of Austria, and IL
her exclusion from Germany. Finally
1t was Won Moltke who, in 1870, de
vised and superinteAded the strategic
operations which ended in the cap
ture of Metz aud Paris, and in tn,

parte, who was but as years old when
he beheld at Waterloo his star set
forever. Indeed, most OF the greatest
captains of ancient and modern times,
as for example, Alexander, Hannibal,
Gustavus, Adolphus and Frederick
the Great, were, contrasted with Won
Moltke, young men when their most
notable achievements were performed.

THE question is now being dis
cussed as to whether ministers of the
gospel ought to make political speech
es. In new York, some of the minis
ters have taken strong ground
against Tammany, and by SO doing
have aroused the ire of the Tammany
democrats. So long as politics are a
matter of trade and dicker and of
blackguardism and mud throwing,
ministers had better not participate
in the political arena, unless they be
anxious to be defiled. What is need
cd is to explode the prevailing idea,
that morality and honor are to be
laid aside whenever there is a cam

some years to come, and Mr.. ScheI believed he
might have trouble about his soap works.
The expression of some few others was to the
effect that if the borough was to be divided

burden of expenses now borne by the present
residents would be too heavy on those remain

brother, two months ago, at Di1mont. Not
only the brother of the deceased, it is
claimed, but his wife was not even notified

have known it now had it not been for the
fact that Mrs. Snowdens niece Mrs. Jones,
and Miss Leavetrie paid the asylum q visit on
Monday to see George Snowden.
They were informed there that he died on
February q, and was buried at that place.
This is what seems so strange to Mrs. Snowden.

COAL MINERS PROPOSITION.
A Mass Meeting 10 be Held at FInIeyviIle to
Ratify IL.

A call for mass meeting Of coal miners
along the Wheeling division of the Baltimore
and Ohio road has been sent out through THE
DISPATCH to-day. The meeting will be held at
Finleyville. Saturday morning at 10 o'clock.
The object of the meeting is to ratify the fol-
lowing proposition made by some of the min
ers:
'In accordance with the miners convention
held in Pirtsburg, March IL and IL the scale
adopted was 80 cents per ton for lump coal, 20
cents for three-quarter coal and 6lH for run of
mine. This basis would make three-quarter
coal Sc cents, run of mine 81 cents AS there is
considerable difference between operators and
miners as to what should be the adequate price
for these two grades of COAL we would suggest
that a test should be made of two or more mines
in this district as may be agreed upon by
committee of operators and miners, and would
further suggest that the mines selected be those
working entirely on the bottom, and those
working on what is known as the regular seam,
and that the joint committee have the power
20 select the mines. After one weeks steady
running, to select day or days out of said week
that they may agree upon and their findings be
the price for such mining for one year on the
79-cent basis"
A vigorous complaint comes from the New
River coal field at Elmo, w. Va The miners
say they have no check weighman, and they
are obliged to trust the honesty of the weigh
boss. They have to drive their own rooms for
nothing, and can only make from rs cents to 81
per day. The company stores come in for con-
demnation. Flour is 81 per barrel, and every
thing else in proportion.
