TERRITORIAL TIPS.

Mr.. J. R. Johnson, of Silver City, who
was recently appointed by the census
bureau to take the mining statistics OF
New Mexico, has about concluded the
round of the camps of the territory. For
the year 1889 he finds that Pinos Altos
leads the mining camps of New Mexico,
with Georgetown second and Lake Val
ley third. Kingston and Hermosa are
nip and tuck for fourth place, with King
ston little on the lead, and the same
condition of affairs exists between Organ
and Carlisle, leaving Organ in the sixth
place.
Fred Nymeyer WAS on Thursday circu-

ANOTHER ONE AGAINST THE CAPITAL.
The Albuquerque Democrat After the
Alleged Santa Fe Ring, the Capital
City and NJ. 3. OterO.

"He has been in a good many fat
things-for Mariana. The Santa ering,
for instance, which deals in territorial
securities, warrants, scrip at 10 cents on
tho dollar, to be funded at par at a good
rate of interest-and which some do say
deals in legislatures once in a while. He
was in the last legislature, that is to say
in the third house of it, of which he is a
standing member; which last legislature,
in obedience to some fine Italian hand,
perpetrated the historic "rape of Chilli, !"
and thereby transferred certain rich pre-
cincts OF Bernalillo county, of Democratic
proclivities, which were threatening to
loose his grip on this county, and which
did no; at the same time transfer a
proportionate and equitable share of Ber-
nalillo county's debt to Santa Fe county.
This ring also saddled upon the unwilling
people of this territory, for the benefit of
Santa Fe, the unnecessary and onerous
capitol and penitentary bonds, and
makes the convicts work the streets of
Santa Fe without expense to Santa Fe. "

How they Differ About Santa Fe.

We want to say word to the citizens
of Socorro. 1t is this. Pull for your town
don't be kicker; don't grunt; don't
growl. When you get a chance say q
good word for every other town in New
Mexico; they will return the compliment
by doing the same for Socorro. Socorrc

mean things and doing mean things
doesn't help your home city. The above
came to our mind on reading the follow.
Ing in the Industrial Advertiser of last
week, paper published in this city
claiming to represent the Democratic
party of Socorro:
Santa Fe is the same old hole-in-the
wall to-day that it was ten years ago, the
only difference being a few handsome
public buildings and cathedral that have
been erected of late years. The people
know how to charge, however, especially
the hotel men. The yellow haired ole

In The DISTRICT COURT.

Action in tho Case of the Terri

argument by U. S. Attorney E. A. Fiske
and J II. Knaebel, esq.,, on motion
filed by the latter for new trial in the
case of Dionacio Duran charged with vio-
laton of the Edmunds act. The court
took the matter under advisement.

charges that Francisco Chavez, on the

in and upon one Lee White, in the peace
of God and of the said territory then and
there being, did unlawfully and willfully
make an assault, on him, the said Lee
White; then and there did unlawfully

to the said Lee White then and there did
to the great damage of the said Lee
White"
In this case the district attorney stated
that the principal witnesses, White and
Cody, were inmates of the county jail
charged with assault to rob, and whose
cases it was desirable should be heard al
this term, but before they could be heard
he wished to conclude the Chavez case
hence he suggested the sheriff should be
arraigned at once. The court called fol

officer was absent on business, stated he
would be arraigned upon his return.

ROUND ABOUT TOWN.

Mr.. Rose Field, of Kansas City, jour
nalist, literateur, dramatist, arrived in
Santa Fe last evening, and he and Mrs.
Field are comfortably domicied at st.
Vincent's sanitarium. They will remain
some weeks for Mr.. Fields health. The
Denver News says: Rose Field, for many
years OF the Kansas City Times editorial
staff, is in the city en- route to Santa Fe,
where he is going to recuperate his health,
injured from long continued journalistic
work. He is brother of Gene Field, so
we'll known in this city, and inherits the
brilliant qualities of the family. No
writer on the western press is more able
or more versatile, and his work has con-
tributed not little to the success of the
Times. Mr.. Field is accompanied by his
family.
Messrs. G. E. Lewis and c. Ii. Hig-
gins, OF Chicago, arrived last night from
Grant county, where they have been to
inspect the "Ricolite" onyx quarries
owned by Mrs. L. J. Caldwell, of which
the New MEXICAN spoke of few days ago.
These gentlemen came to visit the prop
erty in the interest of Chicago syndi-
cate which is about buying out Mrs. Cad
well, and they can scarcely find words to
depict their praise of this truly remark
able deposit OF rare stone. They think
the discovery of this geological wonde,
will be the result OF bringing many mil
lions of Chicago capital into New Mexico
for investment.
By resolution adopted at Chicago
each of the commissioners of the Colum
bia celebration was authorized to appoint
one lady commissioner and one alternate
to aid in the work. This of course will
give four appointments in New Mexico, as
the territory has two commissioners. Hon
Tomas Gutierrez, the Democratic COM
missioner, has already made his appoint
ments, naming Mrs. D. B. Robinson and
Mrs. J. G. Albright. Mr.. White, the Re-
publican commissioner, is expected to
make his appointments soon after Sep
TENDER |.
The rain storm that swept over the city
this afternoon was much heavier on the
south side than on the north, while at the
mouth of the canon it poured down for
more than an hour, the result being that
at 2 o'clock the Rio Santa Fe was running
perfect torrent. Enough water fell to-
day and went to waste to fill half dozen
big reservoirs.
Says the Las Vegas Optic: Petitions
signed by over 200 residents Of Santa Fe
county, requesting the assemblies of the
Knights OF Labor be established there,
have been received here by Juan Jose
Herrera, the chief organizer in this coun-
ty. He will probably go over to the
sleepy town and comply with the re-
quests"

HOW IT HATES SANTA FE,


Says the Albuquerque Democrat 1t Is
time for the people of Albuquerque, es-
pecially the Commercial Club, to wake up
and begin to do something to advertise
Albuquerque. Even sleepy old Santa re
is getting ahead of US in the matter OF
keeping herself before the public, and
now has well written editorials nearly
every day in the journals of Denver and
other cities, which will have the effect to
give persons abroad the impression that
Santa Fe is the great city OF New Mexico,
with more people, more advantages and
more natural resources than any other
town in the territory. The people OF
New Mexico know that such statements
are not true, but people abroad do not
know it, and such articles will therefore
have effect. There are good many rail-
roads building toward this country just
now, and they will 60 the point that
they think will give them the most
business; if these exaggerated stories
about the size, greatness and wonder
full resources OF Santa Fe are permitted
to 20 to the world every day without
any effort on our part to counteract
their influence, it will not be strange if
eastern railway people are led to think
that Santa Fe is the proper point for
their lines to strike. We must not lose
sight of the point that natural resources
and advantages of location do not avail
against energy and enterprise. That
fact has been demonstrated too often to
leave any room for doubt. The west is
dotted all over with towns that sat still
and depended on their natural advan-
tages and "got left" while less favored
points, relying upon the energy and
enterprise of their people, have become
cities. We can't afford to remain quiet
and let some other town do the talking.
That's not the Albuquerque way; it is
not the line of policy that the town has
hitherto pursued, and it is not the kind
OF policy for us to adopt now. 1t is nee
cessary for US to 60 to work, and it is
very important that we do not lose any
time about it. But the work required is
more than any individual could be ex-
pected to do; it must be done by organ.
lied effort, and as the Commercial club
represents the energy and enterprise Of
the town, we refer the matter to that or
ganization.

tie Could Not Play Billiards While He
Thought He Had Them"
George was playing billiards. George
had not been at home for three weeks,
and his nerves were shaky, says the
Pittsburg Dispatch. He poised his cue
and sighted at the pink ball. At that
moment a mouse popped out of the wall
just opposite the pink ball. George saw
the mouse. He saw its bright eyes, and
he took of his hat and wiped his fore
head. He looked about the billiard
room to see il anybody else saw it. All
had seen it, but they did not show it.
The game went on. George shot again,
and again as he drew his cue the mouse
popped its head out Of the hole. George
saw ii. The Precipitation rose upon his
forehead. He took off his hat, looked
at the mouse, wiped his brow, felt his
limbs to see that he was awake, and
glanced nervously about the room to see
If anybody else had caught sight of the
miscreant. Apparently nobody had seen
ii, and George was bathed in perspira-
ton. The mouse disappeared when he
moved, and his shot was made without
a resulting carrom. Was it fate or
chance which brought that mouse out
every time George shot? 1t will never
be known. A stranger entered the bill
lard oom and stood q minute to watch
the bad game then being played. by
George!" he cried, ''look at that mouse"
George braced up. He wiped his fore
head, and with hearty steps he chased
around the table and grasped the stran-
gers hand. ibid YOU" he cried with
the clinging confidence of a Chicago
widow, did you see that m~ouse?"
