THE JUSTICE OF TARIFF PRorEc-

There is no device @ which the free
trade attorney VIII not resort ~ his et-
forts TO create prejudice against The
policy Of Protection. A tavorlte cry IS
that "the tariff is tax, and for
that reason should be abandoned. This
plea is without force SO long as it is a
fact that all revenue obtained from inn
poriations Of foreign products hy Just SO
much reduces the amount that would
otherwise hare 70 come from the peck

erameni is revenue money with which

citizens and protection OF life and prop

u Is the aim Of enlightened statesman

the least possible Inconvenience of the
people for whose benefit it is expended
and from whom the maiol portion Of 1t

years Of experience under our own bear

Providence Telegram: A gentleman
was shown curious thing in the State
House this noon-showing how to tell
the day of the week of any date. He
gave the following formula, which can
be tried BY anyone: Take the last two
figures of the year, add quarter OF
this, disregarding the fraction; and the
date of the month, and to this add the
following list, one figure standing fol
each month. 3-6-6-2- 1929 -1-3-6--1.
Divide the sum by z. and the remainder
will give the number of the day of the
week and when there is no remainder the
day will be Saturday.
AS an example. take to-day, March
10, 1890. Take 80, add %, add 10, add

number of the day, or Wednesday.

James reminds me that he is working

moment and thus secure q hold upon
the successful candidate which he may
make use Of later to his own advantage
either II a subsequent convention or in
the line of official patronage. There
are several places within the gift of

THE FAUsTIN ORTIZ MURDER

Judge Whiteman will preside at the
coming term of the district court. That
being the case the NEW MEXICAN takes
occasion to remind his honor that a foul
and dastardly murder, namely the muir
der Of Faustin Ortiz, was committed in
this town few months ago. The New
MEXICAN further takes occasion to say,
that the peace officers OF the county have
SO far made no perceptible or successful
effort for the detection Of the person or
persons who committed this foul crime.
The New MEXICAN therefore is of the
opinion, that the Judge should specially
instruct the grand jury at the coming
term of court in this matter as to it's duty
and power; that his honor should select
a foreman of that body who will do his
duty fearlessly under his oath and as an
honest and law abiding citizen should.
The good name of the people OF New
Mexico and of this county and the cause
of honest and just government demand
that the officers of the law and of the
court and the coming grand jury make
every possible effort for the detection OF
the perpetrators of the horrible crime.
1t should be demonstrated, that the day
is past, when such deeds can be commit,
ted without detection and without pun.
