THE people OF New Mexico must not
forget that under tte 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
hclal legislation passed by a Republican
legislature over the veto OF that Doodle
governor, put into Office by Grover Cleye-
land, and owing toa jua and honest adj
minstration of the courts, the entire ex-
pense of their administration for the first
;welve months Of the present Republican
.egime, amounted to only 100000, in
which sum there is included an estimate
OF deficiency in the pay of jurors, etc.,
Of about $40 900; this means that under
the Democratic administration the people
of New Mexico were systematically and
constantly robbed by corrupt Judges and
dishonest court officials.
Santa Fe daily New Mexican. [volume] (Santa Fe, N.M.) 1885-1897, 1890-08-25

DURING three and halt 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 4 1889, to March 4 1890,
(there being about the same number of
prisoners in the institution year per year,
from 1855 to 1890 there was received the
amount Of $4,000, from the same source.
Facts arc 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.

A CHANGE NEEDED IN TIE PRESENT
REVENUE LAW,

The present revenue law must be
amended, so as to give the governor
power to remove collectors of public funds,
if they fail to turn over such funds col
lected by them for the territory, or the
several counties, in accordance with the
law. The sherihs of Grant county and
Santa Fe county are very considerably
behind in their accounts. The sheriff of
Grant county has turned over no public
funds since January % last, and the
sheriff of Santa Fe county since February
- last, although the law requires, that
they should turn over all public funds in
their possession on the 10th Of each
month. 1t is acknowledged that each OF
these officials have collected q good deal
OF public money since the dates given.
A stop must be put to that sort of busi-
ness No matter what the county COM
missioners do in such cases The law
should be enforced, and a way should be
provided for its enforcement The bonds
men of collectors should be held to more
strict account. The law must be changed
in order to provide that public funds
must and shall be accounted for prompt
y and honestly.

A DEMOCRAT WHO TAXES THE PROPER STAND

A DEMOCRAT WHO TAXES The PROPER STAND.
The statehood sympathizers will well
come to their ranks with great deal OF
pleasure such an eminent Democrat as
Judge G. n. Lamison, now sojourning in
this city in the interest OF the Santa Fe
Southern railroad. This gentleman is a
lifelong Democrat who has served his
party in congress, and at whose feet every
Democrat in this territory may well sit
and listen; on last Saturday night he
made an eloquent speech to the Capital
Democratic club which might with profit
be printed as a statehood document.
The fact of the matter is that the Demo
cratic party in this territory is between
the devil and the deep sea on the state
hood issue. The strongest principle of
that party is Estates Rights, and no true
member of that party would ever for one
moment think OF opposing statehood.
Now the question arises: Will men who
claim to be Democrats from principle
stick to the principles and teachings OF
their party and aid the present movement
for statehood, or will they be led away
from such teachings of their party to be
the tools and serve the ends and ambi-
tons of few sage-brush politicians such
as Childers, Ferguson, Ross ct al, who
are disgrace to any party?
