ON A pAMETTo.

Through all that year-scarred agony of height.
Unblest Of bough or bloom, to where expands
His wandy ciYclet with his bladed bands
Dividing every wind, or loud or light.
To ternless hymns of love and old despite,
Yon tall palmetto in the twilight stands,
Bare Dante of these purgatorial sands
That glimner marginal to the monstrous night.
Comes him south wind from the scented vine,
It breathes of Beatrice through ali his blades,
North. east or west, Guelph wind or Ghibeline.
IT'S shredded into music down the shades;
All sea breaths, land breaths, systei, diastol,
Sway, MINISTRIES of that grief Inelodieus soul.

In "a few moments he returns with a

Hovey is no doubt the greatest genius at
the game now in the field. His weakness,

most likely winner of the all-comers and

collegiate championship last year.
Clarence Hobart, of the New York Ten
mis- club, is another strong candidate. He
is not a versatile player, but relies to win
on his terrific "Lawford" or drop stroke,
which he plays with unerring accuracy.
His recent victory over Huntington at
Westchester, \. Y, shows him to be among
the probable winners.
r. P. Huntington is another whom the
champion has cause TO fear. he Is a better
exponent of the game than Hobart, for he
can play every stroke equally well. He is

chances are said to be at least three to one

the champion has a material advantage
over any one he may meet. for while the
others are exhsusting themselves in pre-

THE FOOL KILLER IS NEEDED IN THAT
CROWD,

Time seems to hang heavy upon the
hands of the Minnesota legislators, and
in order to give the tax payers the full
value of their services they have taken
up for legislation very unique subject.
They are wrestling with an act having for
its object the exclusion from the state OF
all female actresses who wear tights. In
response to demand by the clergy backed
by various women's societies, Senator
Hale has brought in bill declaring that
any female person who shall in any pub
lie place "expose her neither limb or
limbs, dressed in tights, 80 called, or in
any manner whatever so that the shape
and form of her neither limb or limbs
are plainly visible to such other
persons present, shall be guilty Of open
and gross lewdness and lascivious be-
havior and guilty Of misdemeanor, and
upon conviction thereof, shall be pun
ished," etc. All this upon the ground
that glimpse Of the female form divine
in Minnesota is degrading youth and
destroying public morals" Truly shock
ing this. The man who chiseled out the
"Greek slave" would stand a poor chance
for his life at the hands of those Mime
sotans.

defenses while the fisheries correspond
ence is kept up. The German minister,
Won Gossler, who gave the Koch con-
sumption cure such an official boost,

QUITE A DIFFERENCE,

The register Of the U. s. land Office
here, Judge A. L. Morrison, has fur
nished the New MEXICAN with some in
:eresting information which throws a
strong light upon the conduct Of the gen.
eral land Office under the Cleveland
Sparks administration and under the
present able and honest management of
the interior department and the general
land Office by Secretary Noble and Com
missioner Croft.
From March 4, 1885, to March 4, 1889,
2Os patents for land entries were received
at the U. s. land Office at Santa Fe; from
March 4, 1889, to March 4, 1891 (or dur
ing half the time), there were received
4S2 land patents.
1t should be remembered that under the
administration of the stuffed prophet OF
reform and of the venomous and idiotic
Sparks the Santa Fe land district included
double the area that it has for the past
year and half.
These facts simply mean that under the
present administration the rights of the
settlers and of the people under the law
are respected, whereas under Cleveland
and Sparks the general land Office was
run and managed as huge matchmaking
concern and corrupt and scounderly
special agents we're sent out for no other
purpose and with no other instructions
than to find fraud where none existed and
procure indictments for blackmsiling and
political purposes, right or wrong.

The election of Palmer as Senator from
Illinois undoubtedly represents more
than "a principle" with the two Farmers
alliance men by whose action his election
was brought about. There has long been
a suspicion IN the minds of many that
the Democratic executive committees
"barl" was back of this whole hay-seed
movement, and the fact that the so.called
farmers vote came TO Palmers support
even at 30 late day would seem to veri-
fy this conclusion. The circumstances
attending the election of Palmer will GER
tainly not tend to popularlze the third
party movement, which the Farmers
Alliance men claim 10 be engineering.

EDITORIAL COMMENT.
The Fee System.

1uC GO cybtOAs
The legislature has again failed to fur
nish the people relief from the fee system
among sheriffs, assessors and clerks Of
New Mexico. The people will, therefore,
have to take the matter into their own
hands, and at all forthcoming county cleo
tions select men for these Offices who are
willing to pledge themselves to serve for
fair salaries, the balance to be turned
over to the county. Were this accom-
plished, the counties would be blessed
with more decent election contests and
the bum and plug-ugly's holiday be gone
forever. 1t is estimated that at least
$1,000 is spent in each county by candi-
dates for these three Offices every cleo
ton. Every cent Of this expenditure
must necessarily come from tax payers
