A SPECIAL AGENT
Turns Up in New Mexico with
 Common Sense.

The inhabitants of our sister Terri tory are celebrating their release from bondage. The Buzzard employees of the Interior department have been sent home and the goose hangs high. The name of the new man is Leach, and here is what the Silver City Enter prise says of him:
 "Mr. Leach comes here without an instructed bias against our people. He does not assume that each and every individual in this country is an escaped criminal, who came here with the sole intent and purpose of preying upon the government by fraudulently acquiring title to public lands or by despoiling the land of it's timber in direct violation of law. He has met our citizens as one gentleman should meet another, giving them credit for other than evil motives in settling and civilizing these far western wilds. He does not prejudge ard proceed upon the hypothesis that every settler has acquired his title by perjury and per- version of the law. Nor does he as sert that every stick of scrub growth cut by the rancher for the fire in his hearth, the miner for his hoist or the reduction works for their smelter is violation of the laws for the protection of the timber growth ol the country. To prove that his services are valu- able, he does not find it necessary to employ the scum of our populati, to distort facts, that honest men may be driven from properties, the titles to which were honestly and legally ob- tained, nor promise to the same scum his influence and aid in placing them in possession of that property in re- muneration for their perverted evi- dence."

Tcirible Accident.
III rsld..

Tsld.l
 The north bound train on the Sono- ra road Wednesday morning plunged into the Magdalena river, four miles north of Magdalena, and Frank Marsh who is the fireman is missing. It ap- pears that the river had risen rapidly and undermined the track in such a way that the defect was not noticeable until the engine toppled over the em. bankment. Three cars followed the engine and tank into the roaring rushing waters. One Mexican was drowned. The passenger coach did not go over. The freman's body is thought to be pinned under the sn. zine.
