THE LIBEL LAW SHOULD BE AMENDED

THE LIBEL LAW SHOULD BE AMENDED.
The libel law of this territory should be
amended. The press should not be at
the mercy of one-horse lawyers and
malicious individuals. Albuquerque Citi-
zen.
Correct one way on the other hand
the people of this territory ought to be
protected from the Matchmaking devices
and scoundrely schemes of three or four
sheets published in this territory; the
Citizen knows them well these sheets
are disgrace to New Mexico journalism
and are being conducted simply for black
mailing purposes. To the honor of the
Republican party be it said that these
sheets pretend to be either Democratic or
Independent. In reality they are simply
working for Doodle, and are blackmailers
pure, simple and unadulterated. Decent,
respectable and well conducted news
papers need fear no fair and just libel law.
Such one should be enacted by the COM
ing legislative assembly. The liberty Of
the press is all right and will take care OF
itself.
As far as this newspaper is concerned,
it is ready and willing to give any person
or party any and all satisfaction desired,
in court or out OF court, for anything that
appears in its columns

THE people of New Mexico must not
forget that under the Ross Doodle admin
istration, from 1885 to 1889, when this
territory was cursed with corrupt judges
and dishonest federal and territorial court
officials, the cost of running the courts
was $3.50, 900 per year; the people must
not forget that, owing to wise and bene-
hcial legislation passed by a Republican
legislature over the veto of that Doodle
governor, put into Office by Grover Cleve-
land, and owing to just and honest adj
ministration of the courts, the entire ex-
pense OF their administration for the first
swelve months of the present Republican
regime, amounted to only 100000, in
which sum there is included an estimate
OF deficiency in the pay Of jurors, ETC.,
OF about 10000; this means that under
the Democratic administration the people
OF New Mexico we're Systematically and
constantly robbed by corrupt judges and
dishonest court officials.

DURING the Democratic administration,
from 1885 to 1889, the expenses OF the
territorial prison amounted to $4,000 per
annum. During the first year under a
Republican regime, from March 4, 1899,
to March 4, 1890, tbs expenses, with the
same number of prisoners. were $4,000.
1t is plain to any person who can read
and understand that the management
under the Democratic administration was
dishonest, and the management under q
Republican administration is honest.
That is all.

DURING three and half years of the
Ross Doodle administration Of the terri
torial penitentiary there was received
from the labor OF convicts and the feeding
Of United States prisoners the sum OF
$500. During the first twelve months
OF the present Republican administration
from March 1889, to March 1890,
there being about the same number of
prisoners in the institution year per year,
from 1885 to lS90) there was received the
amount Of IS, 900, from the same source.
Facts are facts and these facts mean that
the present administration of the terri
torial prison is honest and economical
and efficient, and that the Democratic
administration under ex-Gov. Ross was
dishonest, extravagant and inefficient.

NEW MRXICO's LAND TITLES.

The New MEXICAN contends that an
additional judge of the territorial supreme
court for that territory, for which congress
has just provided, is an absolute necessity.
The proposition the News is not prepared
to dispute, but it does insist that what
New Mexico needs more than anything
else is the creation of land court for the
settlement of the titles to the land grants
which abound in that territory. Such
court would relieve to great extent
the territorial courts and thereby lessen
the necessity for adding an additional
member to that court. The New MEXICAN
reminds the News that it is not "plastered
all over with grants. owe are somewhat
particular about this" it says, "and the
News will take notice accordingly.
There's whole lot of New Mexico, 49,
100000 acres, and only Il, 100000 ofthem
are affected by the grants" That is
enough to scare capital away from the
territory.
In this connection We note the trans
mission to congress by the president, on
Tuesday, Of the correspondence between
the department of state and the Mexican
government on this subject. ''The United
States" the president says, "owes duty
to Mexico to confirm her citizens those
valid grants that were saved by
the treaty, and the long delay
which has attended the discharge OF this
duty has given just cause of complaint.
The entire community where those large
claims exist, and indeed all of our peo-
pie are interested in all early and
final settlement Of them. No greater in
cubus can rest upon the energies of peo-
pie or the development OF a new country
than that resulting from unsettled land
titles. The necessity for legislation is so
evident and so urgent that | venture to
express the hope that relief will be given
at the present session of congress-" In
these remarks the president does not put
the matter any too strong. 1t is disgrace
to the American government that all ques-
tons arising out OF the territory coded to
the United States by the Mexican govern
ment forty years ago were not settled in
ten years after the country was annexed
by and became part of this country. In
the case of California that was done, and
it was accomplished through the appoint
ment of commission or court for that
purpose. Grave charges have been made
against the corruption of that body. Ad-
hitting them to be true, the question of
title was settled, and as a result California
has become a prosperous and populous
commonwealth. New Mexico is inferior
to California in no respect, except that
the latter has the advantage in being
bordered by the Pacific ocean. But the
lands of New Mexico are as productive
as those of California, and her wealth in
minerals, yet undeveloped, is not inferior
to the golden state. Had the land grant
titles been settled in New Mexico when
those OF California were settled, and had
that territory been admitted to the union
at the same time, in no respect would
California to-day be enabled to prove its
superiority News.

On Thursday last, during the discus
sion Of the provisions Of the bill estab-
tablishing land grant court for New
Mexico and Arizona, Senator Edmunds
supported the bill and Senators Reagan
and Morgan opposed its passage and pro-
visions. This is as it always was The
Republicans are in favor Of passing meas
ures for the benefit of New Mexico, and
the Democrats, specially members from
Texas, both in the house and senate, an
tagonize any and everything that looks
like benefiting this territory.

In 1858 the second Masonic lodge in the
Rocky mountain country was established
in Denver. The place of meeting was a
log cabin, fifteen by twenty feet. The
first lodge in all the Rocky mountain
country was Hardin Military lodge opened
in Santa Fe in 1S47, by officers OF the
United States army, which in 1S49 was
succeeded by Montezuma lodge No. l,

Colorado dedicated magnificent Masonic
temple at Denver. The building cost
about three quarters Of million of dol

humanity, prosperity, a broad spirit OF
charity and Free Masonry walk hand in
hand in this country.

homa are the territories now, for

Idaho will surely become law with

matter with New Mexico? If her people
have any sense at all, they will vote for
the adoption Of the constitution on the
4th of November coming, and next year
will join the grand sisterhood of states.
If they have no sense they will vote
against the constitution, and will remain

Nh. TAYLOR, a colored man from At
lanta predicts, that 900 900 colored men
will vote for Grover Cleveland in 1892.
However, it must be remembered that
Taylor was minister to Liberia under the
Cleveland administration and would not
object to again drawing pay under a
Democratic administration. Hence his
predictions ought to be taken with great,
big, large grain of allowance, He is
somewhat prejudiced in favor OF Cleve-
land, evidently.

GALVESTON has acted so selfishly to-
ward all other gulf ports clamoring for
deep water harbors that it is BY no means
an even chance now for it to secure the
mammoth appropriation proposed early
in the session. From a $4,000, 900 re-
quest originally the friends Of Galveston
now come forward and say $l,000,000
will do this year, but $4,000 is all that
congress will allow. In the meantime
private capital is making several other
frst-class deep harbors along the coast
west OF Galveston.

THE New MEXICAN is territorial paper /;
it gives all possible space to territorial
matters and to all such affecting the welfare
of New Mexico and of interest to its peo-

these subjects it leaves to its more or less
esteemed contemporaries, who know
nothing about territorial affairs. The
New MEXICAN is well satisfied to be able
to give the territorial news.

GEORGE w. JULIAN, ex-surveyor gen
eral of New Mexico, was candidate for
congress in his district at recently held
convention. But he was not nominated.
Even Indiana Democrats can not stomach
such bundle of conceit, venom and
selfshness. No one, but the stuffed
prophet of reform, Grover Cleveland,
would have thought of giving man like
Julian public Office at any time within the
past eighteen wears.

FOURTEEN years ago Colorado became a
state. The territory on its admission had
about 100000 inhabitants and Denver a
population OF about 5000 To-day Colo
RADIO has a population of about 100000
and Denver, the Queen city Of the west
has at least 100, 900 permanent residents.

hood will do for New Mexico.

UNDER Commissioner Morgan's recon-
mendations congress has at last been
brought to take a practical view of the
Indian educational problem. The pas
sage OF a compulsory educational act
would be most beneficial to the Indians
interest. Particularly is this the case in
New Mexico, where heretofore the Pu-
eblos have displayed an annoying spirit
OF defiance pertaining to such matters.

RAGING WATERS.
Most Destructive Flood Ever Known in
Northern Texas.
DALLAS (Tex.), April 27th.-The most
destructive food ever known in the history
of North Texas is now passing through the
Trinity river. The great rain raised every
tributary of it far out of their banks. Yes
terday and last night it rose rapidly, and
this morning passed the highest water
mark in fifty years. In front of this city it
is TWO miles wide. extending to the foot OF
Flanders Heights west and to Oak Cliff
south of the city. On the north all the
residences from a hundred yards beyond
Cochran street are submerged-some of
them to the second floor, and others to the
attic No one has been reported drowned.
All night and all day to-day people have
been moving to higher ground. The back
water extends far up on the north side of
the city, whilst on the south houses are
submerged as far up as Ward street. North,
south and in front of the city there is one
vast ocean of water about forty feet deep,
and at this hour it Is still rising, and will
continue until at least Tuesday. Trains on
the railroads were not running west, north
or south of the city to-day.
Washouts are reported all along the
i!hcS, pus VIC woISe Is lumeuldtely dIOunO
the city. Tonight the crest of the waves
lack six fee of the flooring of the bridges
in the city, but the Santa Fe and Central
below town are submerged.
News from the surrounding country is
bad. All the small bridges have been de.
stroyed by the deluge. Destruction of
crops will amount to but little. for as soon
as the water goes down they will grow
again.
Fridays storm extended from the Indian
Territory to the Gulf and from Marshall to
Abilene. There was not stream that was
not raised high above its high.water mark.
At many points there were hurricanes and
one cyclone. Many houses were blown
down: So far only one life has been re-
ported lost.

THAT ANCIENT RIyER.
Professor Hanks Combats Popular The
Ory of Miners.

Professor Hanks Combats Popular The
ory of Miners.
Professor 81. G. Hanks has been writing
some elaborate articles for the Mining and
Scientific Press to disprove the ancient river
theory which is commonly accepted by
miners to account for gold-bearipg quartz
found in this State. These are the main
points he produces against that belief: "If
the rivers were extensive and powerful
nough to round quarrz bowlders and con-
vey them so far as claimed, the force of the
current would have ground animal and
vegetable life to q powder, and have wholly
obliterated them. The same river at the
eame time could not have deposited the
pipe clay. filled as it is with perfect leaves,
as described by DR.. Trask
No observant person can stand in the
uncovered channel of hydraulic mine, or
at the breast of California drift mine.
and believe that this vast work was that Of
river. If the work of q river, all the
bowlders brought down would not be
quartz, for no river could flow through
country all the rocks of which are quartz,
or discriminate and select from the great
multitude of known rocks quartz frag-
ments only and reject all others, nor could
any river ZOO feet wide or more convey
large bowlders or move gold. If the work
of rivers, the silty depost called brick bat
by the Georgia gold miners, and found at
the Edman mine. Plumas county, and
elsewhere in the deep placer region, would
not cover so wide an area.
THE same river that conveyed and de-
posted the bowlders twenty tons in weight
could not have subsequently, filled the in
:erstices with the finest of silt as described
BY Professor Blake and others, which did
not mar the perfection of fine leaves. If
bowlders were formed by river action, as
believed by many, they would be only in
the beds of streams, while in fact thew are
found by drift miners in the banks, far
above tine bedrock"

THEosoPHIcAL SOCIETY.
Fourth Annual Convention of the Amer
can Section,

Fourth Annual Convention of the Ameri-
can Section.
CHICAGO, April 27th.-The fourth annual
convention OF the American section of the
Theosophical Society was held here o-day.
Bertram Keightly of London was present
as the bearer of message from Madame
Blavatsky, the ruling spirit of the organi-
zation. He also had lengthy address
from the council of the British section and
fraternal communications from branches
in various European countries.
Madame Blavatsky's communication
warned the members against results at
present terminating in many of the latest
psychic and occult powers into such forms
as Christian science" mind cure,n etc.
Understand once for all, said she, "that
there is nothing spiritual or divine in any
of these manifestations. The healer inter-
feres, consciously or nnconsciously, with
the free mental action of the person he
treats, and this is blank magic"
The General Secretary's report said the
vtnt to Japan by Olcott, one of the found
ers OF the organization, had been of mo-
mentous importance to the Buddhist
Church. The report recommends the sus-
pension of all forms of invitation. The
existing ones, the report said, while
commonly symbolic, merely confess
the signs and words by which membership
can be proved. The objections were that
the society was not a secret body, but
merely an organization of students and
philanthropists. The present system of
grips and passwords arouses in many
countries distrust and antagonism.
