WHY it cost Arizona the sum Of $l0l,-
O85 81 year to maintain the territorial
penitentiary under the administration of
the late lamented Zulick is now being in
vestgated by the excellent and fearless
newspaper, the Arizona Republican,
published at Phoenix. That paper prints
an exact copy of page twenty-five OF the
prison commissions ledger and other
facts and figures which show the stealings
by the Zulick gang run up into the thous-
ands OF dollars. BY false system Of
book keeping none OF the funds paid by
the U. s. for the care of prisoners ever
went into the territorial fund for the sup
port of the institution, but instead went
into the pockets Of the Democratic Doodle
gang IN charge. Zulick, like our own
Montezuma Ross, was one of Mr., Cleye-

THE Democratic ticket of Santa Fe
county contains several men Of bad NOR
ais and cIouded antecedents; others on
the ticket are instigatIng and using the
unlawful and injurious White Cap comb
nations to boost themselves with; others
have bad records in Office and ont of Of
ice; the major portion of that ticket is
bad, very bad; there are couple OF de-
cent and good men on it, but they are
tainted by evil associations; the whole
ticket should be defeated and the tax
payers, citizens, property owners and
business men of this county would be the
gamers thereby.

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, 1889,
to March 4, 1890, the expenses, with the
same number of prisoners. were 500 900.
1t is plain to any person who can read
and understand that the management
under the Democratic administration was
dishonest, and the management under h
Republican administration is honest.
That is all.

VorE for I B. Catron for the council;
he is as far superior to bis opponent in
everything that goes to make man and a
valuable citizen as gold is to lead. Gold
is quoted at $22 an ounce and lead is worth
6 cents per pound. T, B, Catron will
prove of great service to this city and
county in the territorial council, and this
city and county will need a strong andi in
tiuential friend there; hence the best in
terests OF all concernd demand the cleo
ton of r. B. Catron to the territorial
council.

THANKS to q Democratic county adj
ministration, that has been and is being
run for the benefit of q few bosses,
there are no moneys in the school fund
of this county, and this county
containing the capital of this ter
rItorv, has not public school in
operation; are the good citizens of this
county, the men who have children to
educate, going to approve such doings by
their votes on the 4th Of November next
and elect the men, who are to blame for
this state OF affairs? We trow not; there
must be sufficiently of decent public SEN
timent in this county to put stop to the
reign of the bosses and to hurl them from
the power, that they have abused or
simply used for their own ends during the
past two years.

Joseph B. Mayo, one of the Republican
candidates for the lower house OF the leg
sative assembly from this county, comes
of an old English family that settled
IN this country hundred years and more
ago. He was raised in Elizabeth, N. j.,
where he attended the public schools.
For while he followed his fathers bust
ness, that of manufacturer of bronzes and
silver goods, and was quite successful,
amassing considerable fortune.
In 1884 he invested largely in mining
properties in the southern part of this
county and came here to take charge OF
the affairs of the Golden Hydraulic com
pany, he being heavy stakeholder and
director in the company.
In addition to this he has invested in
several other mining properties and in
this way has done great deal toward de-
velopng the mineral resources of this
county. He has during the six years
he has lived in this county given employ.
ment to good many men, their number
sometimes being as high as $50. He il
now sinking very large shaft, l4xl4
feet, and employs quite a number of men
at this time.
Mr.. Mayo is very modest and unas-
Stunning man, never pushing himself for
ward h. did not seek this nomination
the Republicans from the southern part
of the county forced it upon him, believ-
my him to be the best fitted man in
their section for the place. He is digni-
ted and very gentlemanly and courteous
to all, rich or poor, without regard to
social or business position, race or re.
ligion. He always does as he says
and is respected by all who know him
He is a conservative and straightfor-
forward Republican; his first vote was
Tor Lincoln, and during the war he,
shouldered a musket and fought for hiS
county and his flag.
He is in all respects an admirable Sc
lection, and as he is we'll fitted for the du-
ties of representative in every respect, the
people and voters Of this county should
elect him to the position. Heis progress
i've, honest, experienced, liberal, friend
of public education, intelligent and we'll
acquainted with the needs and wants OF
the people. 4 vote for him will be vote
for the right kind of man and for the
interests Of the people.

IN recent editorial the New York
Herald thus treats of California: "There
isn't state in the union that is mlnding
its own business more effectively and
proGtably than California. tbs filling our
markets with luscious Tokay grapes,
prunes, pears, peaches and raisins. That
strip of territory on the other side of the
Rockies is one of the most valuable bits
of real estate in Uncle Sans dominion.
In word California is a bowling success"
And ali this because California raises and
ships good fruits. New Mexico has far
better climate, can excel California in the
production of any of the fruits above
enumerated, and is besides 1000 miles
nearer the eastern markets. The moral is
plain-plant more fruit treesl

REV. FATHER GEssNER, of Elizabeth
port, N j., has proclaimed against the
"steamer caps" now so fashionable
among the young ladies', and considers
that the ends of common decencv de.
mand that young women should place
less material upon their heads and more
about their necks and busts. To a
bevy of fashionabIes recently attending
an affair, the objects of which were to
raise funds for st. Patrick's Catholic
church, he said: "Go home ard dress
yourselves and then you come in" The

Owing to the age disability of L. W.
Dobson, Republican nominee for the ter
ritorial council, he has rendered his res
i2nation, and the vacancy will be filed
9TH county central committee. Mr.
Dobson has resigned in favor of Gov. I.
8. Slower, and the people Of this city arc
strongly in his favor for the position.
Being q member of the committee, Gov
Slower has delicacy about accepting
the honor, but it is hoped the committee
will insist upon his accepting the position.
He is undoubtedly the best qualified man
in the county for the office. He has hon
esty, experience and ability as requisites
commenting him for the trust. This city
will have vital interests at stake before
the next legislature, and it needs man
like Gov. Slower in the council. --Albu-

L. Il. Catron Deserves well OF the People
of Santa Fe County.

L. Il. CatrOn Deserves well OF the People
OF Santa Fe County.
Santa Fe county will hardly repudiate
Hon. T. B. Catron at the coming cleo
ton. 1t is true that the Optic has not
admired Mr.. Catron and has not been
backward in SO expressing itself; but the
chief reason of our condemnation should
be Santa Fes chief ground of approval.
1t is Mr.. Catron's always and unending
devotion to Santa Fe, her people and
her interests. This has caused Mr..
Catron's loss of popularity in
other parts of New Mexico, but
it should make hiu. the idol of his
own county and CITY. Then too, it must
be admitted by all fair-minded men, that
Mr.. Catron's devotion to the Republican
party is second only to his devotion to
Santa Fe. When private dissention has
promised to prove public disaster, and
the supremacy of the party has been en-.
dangered by personal feuds, the influence
and tact OF Mr.. Catron have never been
Withheld, nor have they ever failed of re-
storing harmony and securing victory.
T. B. Catron deserves well OF his party
especially RI his own county people.-La

council:
"The Head Boss.
Mr.. T. B. Catron is in town.
What business in Albuquerque and in
Bernalillo county politics has this arch
plotter against Albuquerque and Ber-
nalillo county, this manipulation of legs-
latures for the interests OF Santa Fe and
Santa Fe county against the rest of the
territory.
1t means that in the past the members
of the legislature from BeYnalllo county
have either uniformly betrayed the in
terests of their constituents, or have been
like putty in the hands OF this brainy and
INSCRIPTIONS man.
1t means that in the past the local
county bosses, Catron's deputy bosses,
have been able to select and have elected
legislators from Bernalilo county accepta-
bio to the head boss.
1t recalls the undisputed fact that the
capitol bill tax was, by Catron, with the
help of the Bernalllo county members of
the legislature, saddled upon the people
ior the sole benefit of the town of Santa
Fe at the expense Of all the people.
1t recalls the fact, undisputed, that the
penitentiary bill tax was, by Catron, with
the help OF the Bernalillo county members
of the legislature, saddled upon all the
people for the sole benefit Of the town of
Santa Fe.
1t recalls the undisputed fact that Cat
'V.-' VIII, onu 1aUrp Of H. n---~l:lI- ,Uun-
ty members Of the legislature, in the last
legislature, had passed bill requiring
the penitentiary convicts to work the
streets Of Santa Fe, without expense to
the town OF Santa Fe; though if Santa Fe
had been required to pay just price for
this work, the expense OF running the
penitentisry would have been lessened
that much to the people and their taxes.
1t recalle the famous Grape of Chill
ill.," which Catron, with the help of
the known corruption or the stupidity
of the Bernslillo county members of
the legislature, had perpetrated for the
purpose of transferring a large slice of
Bernalillo county to Santa Fe county
large portion of the tax paying population
of Bernalillo county, without requiring
Santa Fe county to assume just and
proportion OF Bernalilo
county's debt. That bill lessened Santa
Fe county's taxes without requiring her
to pay for the benefit; and increased Ber-
nalillo county's taxes, without giving her
any corresponding beneft.-Albuquerque

Jose L. Perea is twice as popular with
the people now as he was two years ago,
and poor Leonard Skinner will not be

that Mr.. Perea has made the best sheriff
the county has ever had, his returns to
the territory and county have been
promptly made, and he will be remem-
bered by those who desire to see honesty
in the sherif's Office on November 4. 1t
