brought up several flat cars loaded
with lava rock for repair work on

NEARLY every visitor to the Guyer
Hot Springs is struck with the re-
,narkably fine opportunity there is
to dam up the creek and make a
fine artificial lake on the large bot
tom Just above this beautiful spot.
The pleasure of boating upon SUCH
a beautifully situated sheet OF water
would be irresistible.
PARTIES desiring water from the
Ketchum Spring Water Supply
Company, would do we'll to lay
their service pipes at the earliest
possible moment in order to get the
advantage of long summers irri-
CATION. Why not have neat green
lawns and shade trees when it costs
only few minutes time each day
to water them?
THE Guyer Hot Springs are Won
derfully improved by the few days
work put upon them by Mr.. Stew
arts crew, and it is quite refreshing
to behold so many neatly white
washed sheds and freshly painted
cottages. Great things are prophe.
sled about this wonderful natural
resort and Mr.. Stewart is starting
out in good fashion to bring them
to a focus at the earlies possible
time. A good number of his rooms
are already engaged for the season
by parties who will come from the
coast cities and different points in
the interior, for an outing and me-
dicinal benefit.
George Warren and Messrs. Lem
mon and Bruner, of Haley, and W.
J. Mcconnell, of Moscow, a repub-
lican aspirant for the honors OF
State Senator, were here on the 11tt
and 18th instant, on little tour O,
political sociability. Mr.. McCon
nell is highly spoken of by those
who have known him a long time
as a man of rare intellectual capac
ity and executive ability, and it ii
quite possible that he would go t
the prospective State Senate with
good intentions, and the best inter
ests of his constituents at heart
We trust he will have fair chance
in the race for konors.

Bar Association. But under such man
agement as has prevailed during the
last year and a half there will be no
danger of the tax of 1 per cent being
too low
5, 1--WE further declare that said
constitution makes such an arbitrary
and partisan superintendent for the cleo
ton Of members Of the legislature as to
virtually disfranchise opponents OF the
Republican party"
Like the other declarations OF the
platform about the constitution this is
intended to mislead those who DO not
take the trouble to read the constitution
and ascertain the facts for themselves
We have repeatedly shown in these
columns that the apportionment, If un
fair at all, is unfair to the Republicans
and not to the Democrats, but the trutl
on such subjects is not what is wanted
by the opponents of statehood.
The apportionment provided IN tn
constitution was made on the basis o
the registration of voters in 1888, tn
only basis available at the time, and
, absolutely perfect on that basis. AT tn
time of the meeting of the conventlo
in August Of the present year, a com
mittee was appointed to ascertain whS
the returns Of the census showed with
view to correcting any injustice whlc
might have been done. The censV
figures were not then completed, o'
enough was available to show that
. any changes were made they would
to the advantage Of the Republican
and the committe neverreported. DEM
Gratis can have no cause of complaint
j this. We append table by count
o showing the apportionment OF represe
u tativee, the population as given by tt
:, census and what an apportlonme
-, would be on the basis of the census;

lhe OASIS OF representation lor eaoii
of forty seven members on population
of 1916, is 1928. Our readers can
easily make the calculation for them,
selves and find that the result above
given is correct, giving an additional
representative to each county which
would otherwise have the largest frac
ton unrepresented.
1t will be seen that only two Repnb-
lican counties, San Miguel and Sierra,
would lose by an apportionment on the
census figures, while Valencia and Rio
Arriba counties, both Republican, would
gain respectively two and one. The
doubtful county of Taos would gain one,
but not single sure Democratic county
would be benefited.
We commend the above table to the
careful consideration of every intelligent
voter who might otherwise suppose
there was some truth in the charge of
unfairness in the apportionment.
We also call attention, generally, to
the vague and unsubstantial character
of these attacks on the constitution.
After a year of careful examination,
coupled with venomous desire to find
fault. the assembled wisdom OF the enc
mics of the constitution can find moth
ing more definite to say against it than
is now presented. This, is the result OF
years work! We do not desire to re-
fleet on the ability of the faulttinders
but to impress on the public that this is
the best they could do, and that the
constitution must be very good one
when it comes out as it does from the
ordeal through which it has passed"
IMPEACHMENT OF THE GOVERNOR.
Nearly all Of the later criticisms or
the constitution are but expansions anc
variations of those set out in the Dem
ocratic platform, supplemented in {
number of instances by direct lies. AZ
sample we call attention to state
ment made in circular addressed "It

body else thinks SO. But even on the
basis of the present assessed valuation
of properly in the territory, a sum suffi-
cient 80 the reasonable expenses
Of state ament ca" be raised Oy
tax of ysaasssent. The assessed valua-
ton this, .s35Ar is little less than S47,-
100000, upon which 1 per cent would
be a little under S470,0O0. Of this we
can assume that not less than $4OO, 900
can and will be collected. Certainly
there would not be needed any large
additional tax of any other kind to pay
state expenses, and in view OF the GER
tain influx of capital Immediately upon
our admission into the union, no other
tax could possibly be required. If ad-
mited next winter, the assessment for
1891 would be greatly increased, and
| for 1892 would be not less tllan ploo,
100000. This subject was fully and
carefully discussed in the convention
and the desire was to cut off the posi-
bility of extravaganza in state expendi
lures, and it was agreed that 1 per cent
would certainly raise>more than enough
revenue for all proper expenses Per-
haps the gang now in control OF the
Democratic machinery intend to control
the state government and have in mind
the way they would spend money un-
der such circumstances, the way they
did spend it for us in the courts OF the
