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

VI SautH TO SOuhtys
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 FEES 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 him 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.
7. B. Catron deserves we'll of his party
especially Of his own county people. LAS
Vegas Optic.

The interstate commission has an
nounced another decision. A shipper
complained that certain lines were trans
porting petroleum to California points for
less money than was charged to points on
the same lines not 80 distant, and were
therefore violating "the long and short
haul clause, OF which you have, perhaps,
before heard" The decision is in favor of
the railroad and maintains the position
that under the act to regulate commerce
they have right to make lower rates
at California water and terminal points on
this kind of traffic to meet the competition
of the water lines, without reducing their
rates to the same level at intermediate
points, where no such competition
exists. This is certainly lucid enough
but what's the use of an inter
state commission anyhow? With
the Atlantic on one side furnishing
water competition" and the Pacific on
the other, with Puget Sound and the
Lakes on the north and the Gulf of Mex
leo on the south, it would seem that this
cry of "water competition" could be pretty
effectually worked, under this decision,
for the benefit of the interstate railway
lines.

The government having taken reef
in It's sails and decided to 90 slow on the
subject of national aid for western rri-
cation enterprises, seems now to have
made a second beginning by giving the
investigations over to the agricultural de-
partment. Sec. Rusk has organized his
working forces, and seems to be taking a
very decided personal interest in the
matter himself. The fact that Col. Net

logical survey because he could not con-
sent to have a hand in Major Powel's
impractical methods, is also significant.
The present investigation, limited, to be
sure, must be completed by July next,
and " lille the time is short there is every
reason to believe that great deal more
information will be supplied the govern.
ment than during the entire three years
that Major Powell was in charge of the
work. One highly note worthy phase OF
this new arrangement will be the collec.
ton, and publication OF information "as
TO the best methods of cultivatng the
soil by irrigation"

THAT was very gauzy scheme OF the
Democratic congressional campaign man
ayers to induce tradesmen Of their polti-
cal faith all over the country to raise the
prices on their wares Immediately the
Mckinley bill went into effect in order
to create the impression that the effects
OF this Republican measure were disas-
trous to the masses. The Democratic
tradesmen snapped at it at first, but found
later that they could not make it hold
out, as Republicans doing business along
side of them continued to advertise the
old prices, or cheaper ones, and complete
ly turned the laugh on the Democratic
dupes. 1t was entirely too fimsy a
scheme to wash.

DOODLE, intimidation and bulldozing
are the means now being used by the
White Cap candidates in this county to
bring about their election; but the thing
may not work quite as well as the White
Cap leaders and bosses think it will at
any rate the indications now are, Doodle,
perjury, blackmail, intimidation and bull

Cap element will be beaten and that the
decent element of the community will

prosper and advance during the coming
two years, if law and order are to obtain
and if we are to have decent and honest

THERE is no politics in this business
and the men who say that politics is in
it, simply do so for effect and to mis-
lead people; the tax payers of this county,
regardless of party, are under the law en-
titled to have good and strong bond
from the tax collector of this county the
law says so and common honesty and the
good of the commonwealth so require; by
law, the Judge of this district is the Off
cial who approves such a bond; we do
not hesitate to say, that it has been the
practice heretofore to simply accept al
most anything in the shape of bond and
that the people, the county and territorial
treasures and the tax payers have been
the loosers thereby. 1t is high time that
this should cease and that the people
should be protected. ALI that is required
is good strong bond, and it makes no
difference as to anything else; we think
this will be the csse this time, as surely
It ought to be.

The revenue law needs amendments !;
the governor should be given the power
TO remove any sheriff and collector who
does not comply with the law and fails to
pay over public funds on the tenth Of each
month as is now required; in several
counties in this territory, notably amongst
them the county of Santa Fe, the tax COL
lector has made no settlements with the
territory since last February, although the
law requires that tax collectors shall pay
over all public funds in their possession
on the tenth day of each and every
month. The revenue law must be
amended and the interests of the tax
payers and of the people must be better
protected

DURING the Democratic 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 q
Republican regime. from March 4, 1889,
to March 4, 1890, the expenses, with the
same number of prisoners. were 500. 200.
1t is plain to any person who can read
and understand that the management
under the Democratic administration was
dishonest, and the management under a
Republican administration is honest.
That is all.

THERE is no doubt now in the minds
of people who are informed upon the
political situation in this territory, that
the 10Th legislative assembly will be.
strongly Republican; the territory now
has Republican administration, which
by the way is a mighty good thing for the
people in view of these facts it stands to
reason, that the people of this county
had best consult their own interests and
elect the candidates for the legislature
upon the Republican ticket, as by so
doing they will place themselves in har-
mony with the party in power and with
the majority of the legislature and will
be able to exert necessary influence in
the latter body. This is simply good
common sense; besides the Republican
candidates are far superior in every
respect to the candidates on the White
Cap and disorder ticket; vote for T. B.
Catron, J B. Mayo and B. M. Read and
help this city and county.

The Minneapolis Divine Explains Its
Spiritual Meaning.

The Minneapolis Divine Explains Its
Spiritual Meaning.
The Rev. J. S. David, of Minneapolis,
who with his wife and child had intended
to take a trip to Alaska on the George w.
Elder, gave up the trip on account of the
delay of the boat and the lateness OF the
season. and is accordingly with US another
week. He preached at the Naturalist hall
yesterday afternoon on 'Lot's Deliverance
from Sodom." In his Interpretation of the
text he said that it was OF but little import
anee to him whether the story OF Lots de-
liverance from Sodom was literally true in
all details or not; that what male 1t the
very word of God to US is the fact that it
was portray al in divine symbol of mans
journey from selfhood to angelhood. The
two angels who came to save Lot from the
doomed Sodom and Gomorrah are
the word and the spirit which
come to rescue us from our errors and
evils. Lots entertaining the angels
teaches us that we must cherish the light
of the word and the influences of the spirit.
And the enmity OF the Sodomites during
long night portrays the enmity of the err
rors and evils of the natural man against
the word and the spirit which we enter
tam. The declaration of the angels that
the cities could not be destroyed until Lot
came out from them teaches us that our
errors and evils cannot be destroyed until
we come out and forsake them. The fire
from the Lord out of heaven, which de-
stroyed the cities, is the
divine love which. descending from
God, out of heaven, destroys our
falsities and evils when we renounce them.
1t was morning when Lot left Sodom, and
the dawn grew brighter and clearer as he
journeyed away from the doomed city
until he entered into the little city of Zoar,
when the sun arose and clothed the earth
with light This is picture of our heaven
ward journey. Zoar is called "a little
city" because the spiritual state is unpopu-
lar and known to but few In the world.
The death of Lots wife for looking back is
the destruction of the carna affections to
which man is welded during his Sodom
state. These earthly affections will look
back, and if a man comes entirely out of
Sodom and enters the spiritual life they
will die.
