tons of the Perea finance law over 500,

and thoroughly and just compare mat
tels and things with the condition exist
ing when your old Compsdre Ross was
governor; the report OF an investigating
committee OF four years ago is before us,
and the New MExICAN.will take pleasure
in quoting some OF the language OF N.
B. Laughlin concerning Mr.. Gable and
extracts from charges preferred against
E. Il. Ross, then to the detriment Of
New Mexico, governor of this territory
said charges also having beenpreferrec
by the aforesaid Laughlin what was
true then, is doubtless true to day.

Ii public gambling must be allowed,
what's the matter with establishing a
high license for the same; and license
fee for each game and making the license
fee payable twenty days before a license
can be granted? The present law is a
dead letter and farce; if public gamb-
ling must be continued why not arrange
matters so, that the territorial and county
treasures will be benefited?

THE Kingston Shaft compliments Gov.
Prince and congratulates the New MEX
CAN as follows:
THE New MEXICAN is to be congratulated
on its enterprise in publishing the gov
ernor's message in full in its issue Of
December 30 as a supplement. The mes
sage is a document worthy Of the closest
scrutiny by the people Of the territory.
In 1t the governor makes many recon-
mend --'.n" -~1ich should be needed by
New MEXICO law makers. Taking the
document as whole, it is worthy Of
emsnating from the brain Of Americas
most eminent statesman. New Mexico
has 9 governor whom she can surely be
proud Of

The LEGISLATION THEY WANT.

Universally Demanded by the People.
Liberal, enlightened enactments rela'
tive to schools, incorporation OF towns,
irrigation, stock interests, taxation in
general and taxes paid or not paid by
corporations in particular are universally
demanded by the territorial press Ration
Courier.
Santa Fe daily New Mexican. [volume] (Santa Fe, N.M.) 1885-1897, 1891-01-07
Let Us Hope So !

Some reasonably good legislation may
be expected from the present session,
School laws are likely to be improved,
mining and irrigation interests advanced,
better incorporation laws passed, the
county officer fee system abolished and
the new Office OF county surveyor created.
