The Democratic bosses and boodlers,
that now control the Democratic ma
chinery and central committee to the
detriment of their party and the people,
are claiming great, glorious and gigantic
victory in the defeat of the constitu-
ton; they claim they did it all
they think their lies, ISLANDERS, dis
honesty and corruption did it; well and
good, let them claim it and rejoice; but
one observation can be made concerning
their course, which while somewhat old
and used great many years by our
friend Shakespeare, nevertheless hits the
nail on the head in this instance con-
corning the actions and the claims of the
gang that controls the Democratic ex-
ecutive committee and the vicious and
matchmaking sheets in its pay: "What
fools these mortals be-"

UNDER the new law the postmaster
general is making it exceedingly un-
healthy for all classes of lottery schemes
and for everybody connected with them.
A fair idea Of the binding properties Of
this new law may be had from the depart
ment's circular of instructions to all post
masters, which reads:
'The term lottery as used in this act,
embraces all kinds of schemes, general or
local, for the distribution of prizes by lot
terry or chance, such as gift exhibition en-
terprises, raftles or drawing of prizes in
money or property at fairs; hence letters,
postal cards and circulars concerning
them, and newspapers, pamphlets and
other publications containing advertise
ments are unavailable"

JOsEPH's LAND GRANT RECORD.

The Democratic candidate for congress,
Mr.. Antonio Joseph, is claimant to vast
bodies of land in Taos and Rio Arriba
counties; the grants in question are
named the Ojo Caliente and Cieneguilla
grants; they are claimed by him and 9th
ers for over 100000 acres one of the pro-
visions in the bill for the settlement for
the land titles in this territory declares
that no grant shall be approved for more
than eleven leagues; as Mr.. Joseph's
grants exceed this limit by a good many
leagues, he very naturally does not desire
the bill to pass; he has done nothing for
it, quite the reverse, has done his best,
quietly and secretly, to oppose it; his
personal interests in having these grants,
claimed by Antonio Joseph, ct al, for
several times eleven leagues, confirmed
by congress tor the 900 acres claimed,
are stronger than the interests of the
whole people; he has neglected those
and secretly he has opposed them ; this is
one of the reasons why the bill for the
settlement of the Spanish and Mexican
land claims in New Mexico has not been
favorably considered during the present
session. 1t is we'll known to every citizen
Of New Mexico, who knows anything at
all, that the settlement of the question
OF land grants and Spanish and Mexican
land titles is of paramount interest to this
territory. Judge for yourselves, citizens
of New Mexico, whether Joseph ought to
be or ought not to be reelected, in the
face OF his record in this all important
matter,

THE Democratic delegate for congress,
Mr.. Antonio Joseph, who runs upon an
anti-land grant platform, and for whom
his executive committee is making fight
by declaring and publishing that every
land grant owner or land grant claimant
in New Mexico is public enemy and
dishonest, has not yet explained his
claim and ownership to large part of the
100000 acres originally claimed by him
as the lands contained in the Ojo Caliente
and Cieneguilla land grants in Taos and
Rio Arriba counties. Very probably he
never will; probably the record is too dark
and can not be explained

DURING the halcyon (for the Doodle gang
days of the Ross Doodle administration,
it cost the territory the sum of $55 900
per year for the maintenance of the ter
ritorial penitentiary. During the past
year and a half of the Republican admin
stration it cost the people less than $780,
900 per year for the support of that insti-
tuition and with the same number of pris-
oners. These figures are official and
prove conclusively that the Democratic
territorial administration was dishonest
and corrupt. Some OF the men connect
ed with that administration are endeavor-
ing to get back into power. Defeat them
by your votes on the coming 4th OF No
November, citizens OF New Mexico; it is
dollars and cents in your pocket to defeat
the men who were connected with the
Ross Doodle administration.

DURING the Democratic administration
from 1885 to 1889, the expenses of the
territorial prison amounted to $52, 900 per
annum. During the first year under
Republican regime. from March 4, 1889,
to March 4, 1890, the expenses, with the
same number of prisoners. were $29, 900.
It is plain to any person who can read
and understand that the management
under the Democratic administration was
dishonest, and the management under
Republican administration is honest.
That is all.

ID vote accordingly.

The land court bill for the settlement
of Spanish and Mexican land titles will
not be passed till this territory has Re-
publican candidate in congress. Delegate
Joseph is very hostile to it, and has worked
againsti it secretly, Hence, vote for him
will be of no benefit to the territory. There
fore the people should vote for M. S.
Otero, who will be able to help them and
take good care of New Mexicos inter-
ests before congress and with the admin
istr.tion

NOTWITHSTANDING the high price of
silver, and the way copper and lead con-
tlnue to hold up, it must be admitted
that there has not been that activity in
mining investments which the friends OF
the industry had expected would be
on before that time. To-day all the
leading mining stocks of the country
stand practically where they we're last
winter. In a recent editorial discussing
this phase of western business, the New
York Post makes this pertinent observa.
ton:
Until the managers can be persuaded
that stockholders are entitled to better
treatment the future of the mining market
will not brighten. Low priced silver
since 1873, has always been advanced by
Santa Fe daily New Mexican. [volume] (Santa Fe, N.M.) 1885-1897, 1890-10-09

the managers as the cause Of tie depres-
sion. This feature having been removed
it becomes necessary for the managers to
give stockholders the benefit of the
price, at which they purchase fuel, ma
chinery and other supplies. The prac-
tice they have Of pocketing handsome
profit on all the mines purchase has not,
according to shrewd observers, been done
away with. Carson river mill owners are
apparently the only people who profit by
the Comstock-lode operations"

DURING the past fifteen months the Re-
publican administration of this territory
has reduced the territorial debt in the
amount OF 100000, and has reduced ter
ritorial expenses fully one-half. During
the three and half years of the Ross
Democratic doodle administration the
debt of this territory was increased in the
sum of 100000. Compare the two rec
Ords and vote accordingly.

If the gang ticket in this county should
by any evil Vaccinations be successful /;
the tax payers and property owners will
find themselves out of the frying pan, to
be sure, but also in the fire. They will
in that event get fine, healthy roasting,
that might teach them better hereafter.

The Republicans all over New Mexico
must be up and doing and working; the
gang that controls the destinies of the
Democratic machinery in New Mexico
and has allied itself with the lawless
White Cap element, must be kept from
power and from contact with the terri
torial treasury, else the scenes OF robbery
that occurred during the Ross Doodle adj
ministration will be repeated.

A MURDEROUS ASSAULT.
Black Ruffian Attacks His Wife and
Brother With a Hatchet,

Chew's alley, which is between E and and
LIST and I'd streets northwest, was the scene OF q
murderous assault last night. A negro named
William Henry Butts was the assailsnt and his
wife, Mary Butts, and her brother, Miles
Phillips, were the victims. Butts returned
home last night as usual and partook of the
meal that his wife had prepared. She had be-
come tired Of earning food for both her hus-
band and herself, and she complained to him.
telling him that he should lead a more indus
trious life. Butts objected to being dictated to
by his wife and quarrel ensued. He got up
and left the room, but soon returned with a
Ratchet and dealt his wife a severe blow on the
back Of the head with the weapon. The woman
screamed and called for assistance. Her
brother responded to her appeals and Butts
attacked him. Butts would probably have
killed both his wife and brother-in-law had
not assistance reached them. Several police
men arrived and Butts was conducted to the
sixth precinct station where he was locked up.
This morning the cases were heard in the
Police Court and Butts was given 1854 days in
Jail in each of the two cases.

The Death OF Ezra L. Stevens.

The remains of Ezra L. Stevens, who died at
Asbury Park, Nj, yesterday, were brought to
this city today. A guard of honor from Corson
commandery, Knights Templar, of Asbury
Park. accompanied the remains to this city.
Mr.. Stevens had been in ill health for some
time and had gone to the seaside in the hope
that the change would be of benefit. For a
time his Improvement was marked, but a
change came suddenly and he passed away
quietly yesterday, the immediate cause of
death being heart failure. MIR. Stevens was
well known in this city, where he has resided
the greater part of his life. In his younger
days he was a newspaper correspondent aud
his "reminiscences of the statesmen and the
public events Of the anti-bellum period was of
great interest For thirty years he was chief
clerk Of the Indian Office. He was a promi-
nent Mason and had attained the thirty third
degree. He was the founder of Columbia COM
mandery, No. 2, Knights Templar, and was
treasurer Of the Masonic veteran association.
He was q man of kindly nature and had the
respect and esteem Of all who knew him.
