PLACE The BLAME WHERE IT BELONGS.

There seems to be some disposition on
the part of some people to blame the
present territorial officials for the short
comings and deficiencies in the terrific
rial finances brought about by the Demo.
cratic Doodle house of the recent legis-
lative assembly and by the action of the
Albuquerque Democratic lawyer bosses in
insisting that the appropriation bill
for the present and the coming year
should be so fixed as to create defcien-
cies and dissatisfaction and cripple the
territorial Republican administration.
The blame ought to be put where it be-
longs; it is we'll known fact and beyond
successful contradiction or cavil, that no
one but the Democratic White-C ap.ring
that controlled the lower house of the 29th
legislative assembly is responsible.
The present territorial officials are hon.
est, capable and efficient public servants,
but they must execute the law as they
find it. That is all there is of it and to
it. Had southern New Mexico and San
Miguel county sent different men to the
house; had these sections sent honorable,
public spirited, competent, honest men,
things would have been different. But
a change can not be brought about till
the next session of the legislature, and
blaming the wrong set of people is utterly
futile and unfair.

THE GAME IS NEARLY UP.

President McGrath, OF the Kansas AL.
lance, has published letter urging
south ern Alliances to attend the Cincir.
natl convention and be prepared to act
with third Independent political party.
In this letter he intimates that unless the
southern branch of the order takes this
step the northern states will go back to
the Republican party. Here we have a
pretty kettle of fish fairly on and begin
ming to simmer, and the harmony that
will prevail in that third party convention
at Cincinnati can thus be shifted afar off.
Sockless Simpson and his branch of the
Alliance say, a presidential candidate
must be named; OH the other hand,
President Polk, Of the National Alliance,
says it would be suicidal to do this.
Thus We have the east and the west
pitted against each other on this question,
while the southern end of the Alliance,
which is directly under the control of the
Democracy is already being threatened
most seriously unless it obeys the dictates
of the Kansas Alliance bosses. However,
the most sincere ones of the outfit are
Polk and McGrath. They have finally
discovered the trap into which their Or
der, good in many respects, has been led
through the connivance Of southern infu-
ence backed by Democratic politicians,
and this threat is doubtless the first break
toward notifying the bunco steerers that
their game is up.

into harbor, no other human agency can.

probably learn that the Enterprise rep
