CAUGHT IN THE CORRIDORS.
In the report of the proceedings OF the
house In yesterdays New MEXICAN, the
following appeared: "By Mr.. Read, Fl
B. No, Al, providing for the compensa
ton OF chief and associate justices Of the
supreme court OF New Mexico. Re.
ferred to judiciary committee This gives
the Judges 81 200 wear from the terri.
tory in addition to their pay from the
United States, and is the same pay as the
Judges received under the former admin
istration." This statement is erroneous.
The judges under the Democratic admin.
istration received from the territory as
extra compensation the sum of $1,000
per year, namely 81 800 regular salary
and $500 travelling expenses. The sum
OF $500 travelling expenses had been al
lowed the Judges for good many years
past, but both allowances were cut of
two years ago, owing to the fact that no
appropriations were made for them.
Under the co,partnership at one time
existing between T.. &. Ross, who dis
graced the Office OF governor OF New
Mexico, and +. Z. Gable, who disgraced
the office OF warden of the penitentiary,
the management of that institution was
dishonest and rotten. Now let T. P.
Gable investigate and see the change for
the better the Republicans have brought
about. Investigate! investigated The
New MEXICAN will stay with you and you
know by this time, that attempts at bull
doing do not 90 in the New MEXICAN
office.
The Democratic ballot box thieves and
suborners Of perjury here DO not like the
way the New MEXICAN is doing its work.
Ballot box thieves and suborners OF per-
jury always hate and dislike the New
MEXICAN, and well they ought to. The
New MEXICAN is very shnrn thorn in
their sides and makes them sore, and
that exceedingly.
1t is understood that the fiat has gol g
forth from the Democratic bosses here
and in Albuquerque that tho house bill
providing for the election Of county attor-
neys must and shall pass if not, no ap-
preparations are to be passed. Let her
go, Gallagher, aud let the people find out
il few Democratic bosses are also to boss
the people OF New Mexico.
