A TRIUMPHANT CLOSING.


The annual convention of the territorial
educational association closed this after
noon after the most successful and alto
gether interesting meeting ever held in
New Mexico in behalf Of popular ednca'
ton.
Among the features Of yesterday after
Moons session was paper by Prof. &. W.
Miles, superintendent OF public schools Tor
Grant comfy, The duties OF county
superintendent" Mr.. Miles treated these
duties under two classes, legal and moral.
and the excellent points he made may be
succinctly stated thus: The proper selec-
! ton of teachers, attention to reports,
census, etc. guarding of the public school
funds aud apportionment OF the same /;
the proper attention to literature and pub
lcatiOna for the schools; the business
relations between teachers and school
boards friendly relations of superinten-
dents and school directors and patrons; a
careful study of the school laws and time
ly suggestions for their improvement; the
mutual frie ndly relations betW cen the
county school superintendents OF the
Territory, and the necessity of an annual
assembly where school superintendent
teachers and the friends of education can
freely exchange views and act in concert
for furthering the interest of this branch
OF the public service.
AT the afternoon session a paper by PfOf.
Campbell, of Silver City's public schools,
Education, themes and systems in his
tory, was read and provoked spirited
discussion which WAS ably led by Prof.
rheilman, of the Pinos Ahos schools
An excellent paper by Prof. Doty, of Las
Vegas, was then heard and discussed, the
subject being, "Aids to study of English
in higher grades" A paper that was
also highly compIimented was Primary
work" by the accomplished Miss Cad
walIader, of the Albuquerque public
schools.
Discussion of these several papers con-
tinued until dusk last evening and was
resumed at 80. A feature of the even.
ing session was recitation by Miss
Baird, of Albuquerque, whose splendid
elocutionary powers brought forth en-
Coniums from all listeners.
The convention closed its sessions this
, forenoon.
An address by Hon. Amado Chaves
superintendent OF public instruction,
created much enthusiasm. He read lib
eral statistical extracts from his forth
coming report and said that more than
half the children OF school age in New
Mexico we're now being educated in the
public schools.
1t was decided to hold the next annua
convention at Las Vegas during the holi
days, and committee was named tc
arrange for three institutes to take place
during the summer at Santa Fe, Las
Vegas and Albuquerque.

A Noble Charity.

1t is very pleasant to be able to say that
the good Sisters of Loretto, on Christmas
eve, clothed from head to foot between
fifty and sixty of the poorest of the child
rem who are attending the day school at
their convent. The following generous
people charitably contributed to this
most laudabe work of mercy: Arch
bishop Salpointe, Bishop Chapelle, Hon.
T. B. Catron, Mrs. A. l.. Morrison,
Mrs. Kirchner, Mr.. J. L. Morrison,
Messrs. Grunsfeld, Lindheim & Co.,
and Messrs. Seligman Bros. The young
ladies of the academy OF Our Lady OF
Light also lent their aid TO the good work

otherwise preparing the clothing for the
poor little ones.

THE MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT.
Water, beverage AMI Public Health To
pics Considered at Last Nights
Session.

The city council met last night, there
being present Acting Mayor Knaebel,
Aldermen Koch, Mondragon, Garcia and
Delgado.
The city attorney reported the draft of
contract with the Santa Fe Water &
Irrigation company.
Alderman Delgado moved that the con-
tract be approved as read. Alderman
Garcia opposed the entering into such q
contract, but it was carried by vote of
four to one.
This contract pays the water company
$65 plug per year for each OF the tweaty-
five fire plugs, dating from July 18th
last. 1t makes 10 provision for sprinklng
the streets and forbids the use OF all wa or
for jrrigating the plaza except it he run
through "a hose and sprinkler" The
contract, however, does compel the
water company to carry at all times a
pressure in its pipes of eighty pounds to
the square inch and provides that, in case
the pressure falls below this, the water
company shall forfeit one months pay,
$l35 Al, to the city.
An ordinance was passed fixing the
fees paid for the collection OF city taxes ct
2R per cent.
The plaza pagoda improvement was
brought up and the committee reported
the work contracted for to cost $5S and
be finished in ten days.
An ordinance was passed empowering
any justice of the peace in the city to act
as city magistrate.
The special committee, Aldermen Del.
gado, Garcia and Knaebel, to whom had
been referred the public health ordinance,
reported that important document with
some amendments.
One of these amendments refers to the
burial of bodies, where death is caused by
infectious disease, in city cemeteries, and
the committee recommended that COM
mittee lie named by the mayor to confer
with the Catholic church authorities on
the subject. Messrs Delgado, Mondra-
gon and Harroun were named as such
committee. Otherwise the health or.
dnance was accepted but ordered to lay
0y The e' co %Sn' 5 ssasss shended
the employment of p. 0. Gaynor, OF
Pueblo, Colo, to prepare plans and speci-
fications for complete sewerage system.
The council thereupon passed a resolution
calling upon Mr.. Gaynor to come here at
once to confer Oh this subject, the city to
pay the expenses of his trip.
| E. 7. Weber addressed the council on
the necessity of immediate water develop
ment. He stated the income of the pres
ent water company to be $ll 900 pei
year. He thought this revenue should
come to the city, and his idea was that
the city could well afford to guarantee the
interest on $l50.000 worth of bonds TO be
issued by the Santa Fe Irrigation com
pany. This would amount to $4,000 &
year. All city water revenues would
pass through the municipal government
and when the water company redeems
it's bonds the interest would cease, anC
the city could itself buy the water plant a
price to be agreed upon beforehand
By this means Mr.. Weber thought {
carefully guarded agreement could be
drawn which would protect and benefi
the city for all future time and aid the
Irrigation company in beginning imme
dfate work upon its proposed new plant
The council took the matter under con
sideratiun.

Dear Sir:
l have been away most of
the time since Jan. owing to sickness
Have had two cases Of pneumonia
to attend. My motherinlaw. and y
friend who was visiting here from the
west. So my business here at home
has gone by.
l arrived home yesterday and haste
TO send you the money for the paper.
l could not get along without the HER
AID. was very sorry to see IN the
first paper l took up from the pile
awaiting me, the death of uncle Peter
Barrett. 1 can hardly realize that
when l GO to Dakota again (Which [
hope to do sometime) Shall not see
his familiar form going about the
street from one place to another. And
that brings to my mind the many
changes there since left, five wears
ago this summer. The Tarble house
gone, and Mr.. Tarble who was Il good
friend to so many So many have
moved away, who were there at that
time. The Seminary has been built,
and number of houses. MIR. Thayvr
has gone, the Roth Bros. and many
more. And now you are going to have,
creamery. Truly the little town by
the hills has prospered, even If it has
lost some of its best families, more
have come to take their places.
l sincerely hope Mrs. Barrett will be
able to keep the Office. 1t would seem
wrong to take it from her | hope you
are not having as much sickness in s.
Dakota as we are in the east. Our win
ter was long and unusually severe. We
had y severe snow storm April End. IT

a Strange Alliance.

Resolved. That we condemn the cr-.
ganization known AS the Grand Army
OF the Republic, organized for the pur-
pose of preying upon the United States
treasury, and thereby iilching from the
people, III the form of pensions, money
not their due. We also condemn the
membership of SAID organization for
pressing upon and demanding OF the
people the right to hold Office and be
recognized rs an active factor in the
politics of the country. Their right to
vote we do not question; but their right
to dictate or suggest political action
and political party, we denounce: and
we, the representatives OF the reform
press, do hereby pledge ourselves to
resist such presumption on the part
generally OF the ex-Union soldier, but
especially Of the Grand Army OF the
Republic.
The above astounding doctrine was
passed by the Kansas State Alliance
with Senator Pfeffer presiiiEg. How
our Northern Alliances can fall in
with and accept such propositions is
very strange in the face of the fact
that nearly two thirds of the Alliance
members are old soldiers and are receiv-
ing or ought to be receiving pensions.
Yet every effort is being made by the
Southern Alliance and by few OF the
Democratic Alliance leaders in the
North to consolidate the two organiza-
tions. which means, of course, handing
over the Northern Alliance to the
South. The South Dakota Alliance
leaders may promise great things to
the South through the Independent
party, but we predict that when oar
| loyal farmers get the wool off their
ewes, Loucks & Co. will find it hard
work to deliver the goods.
