Lynchers to be Boycotted,

A meeting Of colored men was held in
Chestertown, Friday, at which it was de-
termined to boycott T" the white men
who engaged in the recent lynching affair.
The sheriff received letter dated Balti-
more, May 19, in which it was stated that
mob was going to Chestertown and burn
the town down for lynching Taylor.
The letter states that no one will know
what boat they ore coming on. The letter
is signed Nigo Colored Mob" and is be-
lieved to be the idle .vaporing of some
irresponsible person, for which the colored
people in the city are not responsible.
At conference of those in authority it
has been decided not to hold: an extra
term Of court to try the Hill murderers.
1t is thought an extra term would make
more excitement than at regular term
and the expense would be little less. The
trial will be held at Elkton.

Joy Turned to Grief.

Otto Cramer, German, employed in the
Dover hosiery factory, learned on Monday
that his 2-year-old son died and was buried
at sea while coming to this country with
his mother. Cramer had been expecting
the arrival of his wife and son and had pre-
pared home for them. On Monday he
met the 1890 train at that place and was
happily anticipating the arrival of his
family, whom he had not seen for a year.
On the arrival of the train his wife alighted
from it alone and told her husband of the
child's death. Cramer was very fond of
his little boy and had made special prepar-
alton for his reception, and the news of his
death caused him to break down and weep
bitterly before leaving the station.

& Gas are the leading spirits in this or
ganiza,ion, and in order that they may
shfivel to their true proportions they
should be prickcd without delay. For a
long time past we have been
hearing about the Santa Fe South
ern and the construction work on 1t,
winch Was Just about TO commence. They
we're always ready, according to their
slick promises, to build from Santa Fe to
CerriIos ald thence to San Pedro, but
these promises have come to nothing,
and looking at all the facts III the case
there is but one conclusion, and that is
that this Santa Fe Southern concern has
been Systematically deceiving the people
for reasons profitable to themselves. The
people of Santa Fe, as well as of the
towns along the proposed line, are utterly
disgusted with the procrastinatlon OF this
company, and their disgust is intensified
| by their belief that the whole scheme is
simply the attempt of few self.seeking
fellows to play sharp game and make
money, without earning it, Oft of an inno-
cent and confding public This COM
pany, originally the Texas. Santa Fe
d Northern, was conceived in scull-
] uuBBefF anu ududktu Nith kOhCi al
cussedness to avoid paying its
legitimate debts, and to complete it's
shame and niamy it finally changed its
name t. that of the Santa Fe Southern
with the rascally hope that by some trick
of the law it might thereby be able to
successfully repudiate its debts previously
contracted. The people along the line
of this Rip Van Wrinkle railroad company
should put no more faith in Its promises
to build nor spend another dollar in any
such cause unless this company speedily
comes up with its unfutilled promises
The road from Cerrllos to San Pedro
should he built by all means, and tha
too, right away, and the great Atchison
Topeka 4 Santa Fe company should take
| hold of the enterprise at once and push i
t vigorously to conclusion. The benefits
to the Santa Fe from such line are al
obvious as the advantages to the people
r on the line. We commend the Santa Fl
Southern to the hearty contempt OF TIT
people of New Mexico. Whenever yo'
see a blk, be it either individual or cor
porate, promptly focalize public gaze upol
t it so that its true character may b
: exposed and as little harm as possibl
t done"

TOMORROW NIGHTS EVENT.


To the Editor OF the New Mexican
SANTA FE, Feb. 10.-Ihe concert to
be given from to $50 at the capitol to-
morrow evening will be, in itself, worth
the price OF admission. Never, we feel
sure, has any entertainment been given
which every one has been so aoxious
to assist. The only complaint which has
come to US has been "why did you not
call upon meP" Tickets of admission
have been placed at the low sum of 50
cents. They are for sale at most OF the
stores, and can also be had at the door at
and after 8 o'clock Thursday evening.
We would like to send complimentary
tickets to all who have helped and will
help us to the end, but that would mean
over 100 and no one could expect us to do
so We feel sure all will be willing to
provide themselves with the ticket. The
object, of course, is to make money, and
no time nor thought have been spared to
suit the taste and fancy of all, and every
one, we feel sure, will be glad to have
done all in their power to help our lady
commissioners in making good exhibit
OF Santa Fe county at the Worlds fair.
