OUR MUTUAL INTERESTS.

Mr.. L. T. jeffrey, the newly installed
president of the Denver & Rio Grande
railroad, has again demonstrated his tit
ness to handle grand property in such a
manner as to bring about the warmest
business relations with its patrons. In
public address at Denver the other night
he expressed sentiment which will go
far toward solution of the present grave
transportation problem in the west ii 1t is
lived up to, and one, also, which other
corporations may we'll consider it advisa'
bic to emulate. He said:
81 am firm believer in and strong adj
vocate of free and unrestricted inter
course between the public and the railway
corporations, for without it wise and Just
conclusions in the interest alike of rail-
ways and the public can not be reached.
| am equally and as strongly opposed to
arbitrary and autocratic methods on the
part of railway managers by which devel-
opment may be retarded, manufacturing
repressed and commerce partially para.
lyzed. am quite rs strongly opposed to
private trades with individual shippers,
secret rebates and unlawful concessions TO
merchant and manufacturer, discrimina-
tons which build up one and destroys
another.
"Open, candid, free and unrestricted
intercourse between all parties having a
common end in view, especially when the
object in view is so important as that
before US, is the true and only way in
which to foster and build up our mutual
interests"

A TERRIBLE RECORD.

1t has been figured out that seventeen
men are killed and seventy-two are in
iured by the railroads in the United States
every day in the year. This is terrible
record of human sacrifice, and to wipe it
out of existence is a philanthropic duty
that others beside the railway officials
may we'll lend their best thought and
energy toward. President Harrison was
right in calling public attention to the
needs of adopting some better system toi
the protection of the tolling millions
engaged in earning their daily bread as
train service employees.

Important if True.

1t is aad that Col. R. M. Johnson
our former district court clerk is about to
return to New Mexico and that it is his
intention to assume the leadership Of the
Democratic party of this territory, with
seat in congress in view. This is men
toned as matter of news and not that
it is any OF our or any other Republicans
business who leads the Democratic hosts
to defeat. Joseph is the Democratic
Moses of New Mexico, and any other man
must be Dennis, or he would be sort
of brother-n-aw to the lamented Henry
Clay-his name would be Mud.-Springer

THE American homesteader continues
to follow the star of empire westward at
the rate of 100000 year. This means
that agriculture is to-day the vests great

100000 people. The mines and other
industries attract almost as many more,
and thus We may figure that converts Tor

Need Not be Afraid.

The New York World is afraid that Mr..
Elkins will not be credit to the long
list of secretaries of war that contained
such llustrious names as that of Jefferson
Davis. Happily the majority Of the
people in this country have no fear on
that point. Mr.. Ekins will never fight

DESPITE the mutterings OF few men
here who opposed the appointment OF
Mr.. Elkins, the latter was confirmed very
speedily. To be sure, it is somewhat re-
markable that the senate OF the United
States should not listen to the talk OF
few marplots out here, but then very
strange things will happen in this world
At any rate We are we'll satisfied with Mr.
Elkins' nomination and confirmation,
and that is pretty good in itself.

THE FLEET.

II was long ago that my dream ship sailed
Day by DAY TO that shadowy sea;
And | watched each one till my vision
failed
And the ships were lost in mystery.
Sometimes rose-hued and billowy cloud
Shut out my view ere the ship went fay,
But often the darkness would seem to
Shroud
The vessel before she crossed the bar.
They sailed at the sunset. every one;
They sailed away ON the ebbing tide.
Sometimes brave vessel went out alone,
And again two sailed forth side by side
left them alone in the hands of Fate;
Prayed she would make them reality;
Aud many time did watch and wait
For my fleet TO return from the sea.
Then my last ship sailed-for my dreams
were done
And | grieyed that my ships came not
back.
But only last night at the sci of sun
saw mast DER the wasteless track
And the twilight mists gave away and made
pathway lit with sunsets beam;
And q ship sailed in through the twilight
shade,
And brought back to me youthful
dream.
