Asks for Information

To,the Editor of the New Mexican.
SILVER Cry, N. M, Sept. 7, 1891
Why is it that the clerk of the Sd judicial
district turns into the territorial treasury
almost as much money-fees-as all the
other district clerks combined? What's
wrong? Is there crookedness? 1t looks
that way. 1t IS somebody's business to
ferret this matter out. The great
county of San Miguel and the great
county OF Berna]illo are never behind
when an appropriation is asked for, and
the writer of this heard it announced from
high authority not many months since
that more legal business was transacted
in the court of Bernallllo alone than in
Judge McFie's entire district, but $4S9 is
much less than 81 $3.50. The tax payers
all over the territory are seriously inter
ested in a matter of this kind.

Fruit at the Fair.

The counties of Santa Fe and San Mi.
guel are both CON ing to the fair deter
mined to take home the first premium for
fruit. Both have made provisions for
county displays, and both have entrusted
the work of gathering and arranging their
exhibits to able. and energetic commits
sioners. Each has a pretty good idea Of
the capabilities of the other, and knows
that to win the prize it will be necessary
to "hustle"-and each has entrusted its
work to men who are noted for doing that
The rivalry between these two counties
has quickened the fruit interest every
where else, and as a consequence the
territorial fair, which opens next Monday,
will present by far the finest fruit exhibit
ever made in the southwest, and visitors
from abroad will be astonished to see
what New Mexico can do in this line

WHAT DOES IT MEAN?
To the Editor of the New Mexican
SANTA FE, Sept. 9.-The council refused
to confirm John Gray for city marshal
last night by vote of to 2. 1t is whis-
pered about that the reson for this action
is found in the fact that the Democrats
want the place for the late defaulting
sheriff OF Santa Fe county.
If this is true and the council is owned
by "the gang" as is indicated by last
nights action in confirming DR.. Sloan,
the decent members of that body had
best preserve their self-respect by resign
ing. HONESTY IN Cry AFFAIRS.

for the place and John Gray for city mar.
shall and street commissioner. In execu.
tive session both nominations were reject
ed.
Alderman Knaebel called attention to
the urgent need of sewer on Water
street. The subject was referred to the
committee on sewers and irrigation with
authority to.co-operate with the engineer
and city attorney and report at the next
meeting.
After the rejection of Mr.. Ortiz the
mayor nominated L. Sena, as garbage.

In executive session the vote at a pre-
vious session rejecting DR.. Sloan as city
physician was reconsidered and the ap-
pointment confirmed.
The city attorney was directed to make
a contract, to be approved BY the board
respecting the removal of garbage.

The Railroad Situation.

Private advices from New York re-
ceived by the Chieftain show that the
general impression among those who
ought to be posted there is that Jay Gould
is making arrangements to secure control
Of the Denver y Rio Grande, OF that he
has already captured that road. Most of
those who talk about the matter claim
that he has already completed the pur-
chase of sufficient stock to control it and
base their opinion upon the ground that
Mr.. Gould would not have made a tour
of inspection of the property at this time,
and thus called the attention of the public
to his movements, unless he had already
completed his arrangements and made
everything cure.-Pueblo Chieftain.

ABOUT THE FAIR.

Among those who will make exhibits
of Santa Fe fruits are John Morton, Ed
ward Miller, Mr.. Boyle and the Misses
Manderfeld.
AS trains now run 1t will require two
nights travel to go and return from the
territorial fair. If the A., T. & s. F. would
consent to put on an extra day service
for northern New Mexico during fair
week it would just about double the at-
tendance at the fair.
While Santa Feans are looking to the
fruit and vegetable exhibits, they should
not forget the grain display which this
county can make at the fair. One Las
Vegas firm has samples of wheat, barley,
buckwheat, oats and rye which will be
shown on behalf of San Miguel county.
The Santa Fe pamphlet for distribution
at the fair and those handsome horticul.
tural views are coming on nicely and will
lie ready for shipment on Saturday. In
this matter the Board of Trades commit

A SPLENDID PUBLICATION.


AS was promised the people OF this
city, last Saturdays issue of the New
MEXICAN was splendid publication.
The matter contained was prepared in a
readable shape and reflected much credit
upon George Cross, who no doubt got it
ready for the Compositor. The territorial
fair was given splendid sendtof, and its
management was deservedly praised for
the manner in which New Mexico
institution is being fostered by enterpris-
ing citizens of the territory Albuquer-
que Democrat.
VALUABLE PAPER.
The New MEXICAN of last Saturday is
the best newspaper ever issued in the
territory. The paper contains eight
pages, four pages of which are devoted to
the territorial fair and descriptive sketches
OF Albuquerque, profusely illustrated.
Geo. ii. Cross prepared the matter, and
considering the short time in which he
had to gather statistics, it is remarkably
accurate and well written. The paper
deserves big sale in this city and the
enterprsing New MEXICAN deserves a
rich financial return. The Citizen will
from time to time make copious extracts
from the best write up the town has ever
had, and stand ready at all times to help
push the New MEXICAN to the front 10
New Mexico.-Albuquerque Citizen.
REPRESENTATIVE PAPER OF NEW MEXICO.
The New MEXICAN is a representative
paper of the whole territory. While it
labors necessarily to build up and adver-
tlse Santa Fe it does not neglect other
portions of the territory. This is evid-
enced by an able editorial correspondence
from the Pecos valley and other sections
OF the territory, and its efforts in behalf
of all the public institutions wherever
located And to-day it will issue an illus
trated edition for the Albuquerque fair.
This broad minded policy must be pur-
sued by any paper that hopes to be recog-
nized as representative paper of the
territory. 1t must be able to see beyond
the narrow limits of the locality in which
1t is published and must not devote its
energies to building up barriers and fos-
tering local jealousies. This course of the
New MEXICAN is not only commendable
but must be productive of beneficial re-
suits to the material interests of the terri
tory.-San Marcial Reporter, Saturday.

WONDERFUL WORK.

The work that has been done and &C.
complished in Eddy county during the
past two years in the matter OF settling
up that new county, building railroads
and vast storage reservoirs and construct
ing irrigation systems, is simply wonder
full. The managing spirit and mind OF
the work has been Hon. G. B. Eddy.
That county now offers magnificent in
ducements for the best class of immi-
grants. The Pecos Irrigation q Improve
ment Company, J. j. Hagefman, presi-
dent, and G. B. Eddy, vice-president and
manager, will aid every man who wants
to make that section Of New Mexico his
home, in a liberal and public spirited
manner. The settlement of that county
is progressing rapidly and satisfactorily
The New MEXICAN has an extended ar
ticle, descriptive of the resources of Eddy
county, ready for publication. 1t will ap
pear shortly and give the very latest in
formation concerning that favored portion
of New Mexico.

THE LEADING QUESTION.

Of paramount Importance to all other
questions to be considered at the trans
Mississippi congress, to be held at Denver,
May 10, is the subject of the disposition
of the arid lands in the west. If it is true
that, agriculture is the best basis of all
productive wealth, then does this ques-
ton over.top all others to be discussed
and acted upon at this representative
gathering of western men, and SO far as
concerns the delegates from New Mexico
We sincerely hope that there will be no
division of sentiment on the question.
There is but one thing, and one only, to
be done by the government to benefit the
masses interested in this matter, and
that is to have congress enact law turn
ing all arid lands over to the respective
states and territories in which they are
situated, upon condition that the reclama,
ton of the same be provided for by these
several states and territories.
This is the quickest and simplest way
to solve the problem; it is the only one
suggested by the rules OF common sense
and good business methods. We want
no more OF Powell's geological survey
methods and the advocacy OF this simple
plan of handling the subject would for
ever put quietus upon his selfish mani
pulation of government funds appro
prated through the influence of Powell's
lobby under the guise of "aid for western
settlers" Besides, it is believed thai
New Mexico is justly entitled to the
honor of advancing this idea; it was frs
broched by the New Mexico delegation
that went to Washington one year agt
this month and advocated before thu
senate and house committees on irriga
ton, and it has been persistently ham
mered at by this journal ever since
New Me1icans were in favor OF it yea
ago, and now they are no doubt NOR
than ever convinced of its advantages t.
all parties concerned. The western pres
generally seems to be in favor of thi
plan, as we'll as the interested public
and the New Mexico delegation wi
acquit itself with credit at the Denve
meeting if it stands up man to man 70
this best method of dealing with the com
plcated question.

ton unsettling titles has been pending in
the U. S. courts. This new act provides
that patents shall issue where lands have
passed into the hands of innocent pur-
chasers and no fraud is alleged on their

The White Cap County Clerk of San
Miguel County Fails to Keep HIS
Pledges.
The county clerk, Rox Hardy, who
was elected to Office by the people,
led by his promises to parties to whom
he protested friendship and reform in
county affairs also promised at the same
time to file bond obliging himself to
turn into the county school fund all
moneys received by him in excess Of
SO 900 per annum. Has he fulfilled his
pledge? No, nor is there any sign that
he intends to do 80. What is the mat.
ter? 1t is safe to say without dabbling in
figures, judging by the furious and con-
tinuous attacks he has made upon the
public crib, that said official has fal
passed the limit. But then memory is
so uncertain, he may have forgotten, you
know ?-La Voz del Pueblo.
