The New MEXICAN is of the opinion
that the board will go on and ahead do
ing its duty in manner so as to fully
support the superintendent and to bring
about a state of the greatest economy,
efficiency and usefulness. The record
Of the past two years shows that
there has been a great and complete i'm
provement upon the abominable and
dishonest record made under the Demo
cratic administration. There was some
more room for improvement, and
this can be brought about during the
coming two years. In this endeavor the
board and Supt. Chaves will have the
fullest support of this journal and of all
good and we'll meaning citizens.

MADAME BlAvATSky.

And Madame Blavatsky is dead, poor
old soul. But her teachings are Just be-
ginning to live. She was one of the
unique figures of the age, the founder Of
religious system that certainly has some
good features about it. She did much
during her long and busy life to break
down the walls of religious superstition
and the hold which the principles as set
forth by her have now upon many of the
great minds Of the day goes long way
toward proving the truth of that utterance
by the now famous Helen Gardener that
orthodox theology is a waning profess

LET'S HAVE THEM.

Public sign boards are very useful in
stitutions, and there is very good law on
the subject in the territorial statutes which
calls upon the county boards to attend to
the erection Of these sign boards, but thus
far the law remains a dead letter. If
these county boards would pay as much
attention to this subject as did the Hon.
VIM. Burns, speaker Of the late house,
and throw one-tenth of the enthusiasm
into its consideration as did he in franz
ing and working up the passage Of this
act, we feel sure that there would be real
joy among their constituents throughout
the length and breadth OF sunny New
Mexico. Let's have the sign boards.

THE WORK OF THE PENI7EN7IARY COMMISSION

The board of penitentiary commission
ers has been actively at work during the
past two months and on Saturday COM
pleted this work by confirming number
OF new appointees and prescribing certain
new regulations for the government of
the institution. The New MEXICAN be-
lieves that, in the main, the work Of the
board has been good and calculated to
advance the best interests Of the people.
This paper has never joined in the bowls,
lies and ISLANDERS INDUCED in by some
Democratic sheets and by some alleged
Republican papers upon the past manage
ment Of the institution in question. Quite
the reverse; it has denounced these SLAM
ders and lies as being such. They were
instigated by certain gang Of boodlers
for no other purpose than for political and
personal hatred, for personal gain and to
crafty personal or political venom. The
evidence upon which these ISLANDERS
were based is no evidence at all
simply the say 80 and the gable Of
couple of convicts or Of men utterly and
entirely unworthy Of belief. The fact re-
mains and will remain and can not be
explained away, that under the Republi-
can administration during the years 1889
and 1890 the expenses Of the penitentiary
we're $4,000 per year below what they
were under the Democratic administra-
ton in previous years, and that with
about the same number of prisoners. 1t
is also fact and patent to every fair
minded man, that the personnel of the
force under the Republican administra-
ton was far superior to the personnel of
the employees that held sway under the
Democratic administration.
A claim has been set up, that too many
of the employees came from Santa Fe;
well and good, let the board and the
consult together and make
from outside Of this baili-
wick. The superintendent is not from
Santa Fe, and it would suit the New
MEXICAN just as we'll, and probably bet
ter, to have the appointments distributed
around the territory.

THE SOUTHWEST MUST DO IT.

The statistical department of the gov.
eminent sends out few figures that ad-
mirably show that the southwest must
take hold of manufacturing industries at
no distant day in order to supply the
demand from Mexico and her southern
neighbors. The United States consumes
80 per cent Of all merchandise exported
from Mexico, but our manufactures do
not supply the demand of Mexico in this
line by less than one-half.

THE chances are that the change in the
war portfolio will not come as soon as
many had anticipated. Senator Ed
munds' resignation does not take effect
until October next, and until his successor
is named there is not likely to be any cabi-
net vacancy. If Mr.. Proctor succeeds
Edmunds then it looks bit as if Senator
Henderson, of Nebraska, would get the
war department secretaryship.

GOOD OFFICES,

About as good Offices as there exist in
this bright and sunny territory are those
of the clerks of the district courts the
salaries are good enough as paid by the
territory and are largely increased by the
fees paid for United States cases. The
work has been reduced considerably as
there are five districts now. The offices
in question are worth clear over "a 900
per year; pretty good pay that, these hard
times.

A Life With q Lesson.

DR.. Heinrich Schleimanp, whose
death was announced last week, was
one whose efforts and whose achieve
ments our Idaho boys should study
and whose example they should
follow. The son of a German peas
ant, the social customs of his coun-
try effectually closed every door of
advancement against ordinary boys
of his class; but he was no ordi-
nary boy. He was with the peas
antry but not of them. He pos
sessed an ambition which refused
to recognize such miserable shams
as hereditary privileges and social
caste. To his mind merit alone
was worthy; in his belief energy
could make place for the de-
serving-a place higher than gold
could purchase, ancestors bequeath
or social eminence confer, and he
was right. None of these things
are meritorious or worthy of mo-
ment's tolerance by boy Of brains.
1t is a dudish spirit that fancies it
shines when decked in ancestral
plumage or gilded with ancestral
gold. Schleilnann, the peasant boy,
saw not these trappings of the FEM
inine-minded great-saw only the
good which honorable effort offered
| beyond and above them. and early
resolved to reach it. Obstacles in
instead Of discouraging urged him
to still greater efforts. He succeeded
and his success was as marvellous
as the obstacles which beset his
boyhood had seemed insuperable.

lplishment Of his self.appointed des-

IT looks from our standpoint as
if representative King is triae
thin-skinned for politician. The
Idaho Falls Times having remarked
recently that the Legislators could
remain away from Boise and never
be missed; - Mr.. King "whereased"
that the language was insolent and
insulting, and introduced resolu-
ton declaring it to be the sense Of
the House that q chrome should
be presented to the offending editor,
which resolution the good sense of
the House suppressed, reminding
the legislator that its passage would
not be becoming. When Henry
Clay began political life, and while
making canvass somewhere in the
backwoods of Kentucky for the
state Legislature, he was accused, SO
report says. of having stolen a hog.
Being young and inexperienced,
Mr.. Clay called upon lawyer to
vindicate his character, but was adj
vised to drop the matter, since if he
sued the slanderer the charge would
be proven. Now we do not pretend
to say that Mr. King is like Henry
Clay was in anything except mex
perience or yet that the editor OF
the Times was right in his remark
but he certainly is entitled to ex'
press his opinion, without resortine
TO personalities. and no public man
will gain in his own or the popular
esteem by striking before hs il
struck.

tiny is admitted !; but his previous
" acquired education had fitted
him to use wisely and well the sub
stance of bis inheritance, and it was
this and not the fortune he inherited
that. after all, enabled him to place
his own among the uppermost
names on the list of earth's immor-
telles. Without the knowledge his
will had gained, the gold, when it
came to him, would have been q
mere means of gratifying an igno-
rant. riotous desire, and, with his
health, would have been filtered
through the slums of Berlin into
the vaults of brokers, leaving him
to find a grave in Pottersfeld. But
he had inherited nobler ambition !;
he had acquired a degree of educa-
ton which lifted him above the
temptations and allurements which
ruin so many boys, and men, too,
who are so unfortunate as to come
suddenly into the possession of
large wealth. To DR.. Schleimann
money was only means to great
end. His pursuit was of knowledge.
The lore of the ancients was his
specially; and he became the great
est archeologist of his age. 1t was
left for him to locate and uncover
the ancient and ruined city Of Troy
to turn Homeric myth into one
of the most interesting of modern
realities, and thus make good a reso-
luton of his early years. What the
Germanapeasant boy did any Amer
lean boy with energy and ambition
can do, by simply avoiding bad
company and bad habits and de-
voting his time to study. How
many boy readers of the KEYSTONE
will try to profit by the lesson OF
DR.. Schleimann' life?

PIONEER SKETCHES---No. l.
c11RED BY ANoTHER's MEDICINE.

Many years ago we had aspira-
tons for an oratorical career, and
mad we not had the good fortune to
hear a young editor attempt his
maiden, or, better, perhaps, maud
lin speech, Col. Ingersoll might now
have had to admit rival; who
knows? 1t was during the Lincoln
Breckenridge Douglas Presidential
campaign, and during the hottest
part of the canvass. A political
gathering was in progress at Jack
sonville, Oregon, and local speakers
were expounding the bright and
shining virtues of their parties and
candidates before the assembled
multitude, far more rhetorically
than truthfully, and excitement was
at high pitch, when the gentleman
who saved us from becoming an
orator, and Ingersoll from a rival,
was called onto the rostrum. He
was one of the most facile, caustic
and brilliant young men and writer's
in Oregon when Linkenfelter and
O'Meara were young, and when
bright young men were no rarity in
that state. But he had not learned
the difference between showing Fa-
Der and delivering thought through
the medium Of the >larynx. This
lesson he had to learn, and it was
taught him on that evening in a
most emphatic and brutal manner.
He was the democratic nominee
for probate judge, and was Brock
enridge democrat, whilst we were an
ardent supporter of Stephen A.
Douglas, and, Of course, we were
bitter personal enemies. His op-
ponent, republican, was gentle
man from whose voluminous lips
words ran as water from spring,
but without the slightest suspicion
of intellect to flavor them. This
speaking machine was stumping
the county; and having had the
attention of the non-critical crowd
for an hour and a half, sat down
amid an uproar Of applause that
might have sufficed to split the ears
of a granite statue, when by the i'll
advised action of the friends of the
young editor and embryo orator,
he was called upon to reply. Sur
rounded by his political friends
who had previously honored him
with the nomination to SO exalted
and honorable a position, he could
not refuse, who could? So, having
with some difficulty assumed a
perpendicular attitude, he began :
Ladies and gentlemen" His voice
was weak from fright and screaked
like a pair of new shoes; his knees
were knocking together with the
force of a pair of ordinary trip
hammers, and as he collapsed on
to a seat behind him, like wet
rag, he concluded: II was goin' to
say suthin' else but have forgot,
/ and choked up completely.
The mob howled forth its idiotic
derision in tones that threatened to
crumble the earth nnder it's feet, as
the poor wretch skunk away into the
obscuring shadows of the night
pitied by US only. Well, the man
Of sound was elected, while the man
Of sense, beaten, disgraced, sought
refuge from scorning crowd, not
one Of whom was worthy to unlatcl
his shoes, in his editorial den, there
to await a purchaser, and as soon
as he could sell out he returned to
the eastern states and was forgotten
And We were cured of all oratorical
/ aspirations.
