ANTONIO JOSEPH CALLED DOWN AGAIN.

''To Hon. A. L. Morrison, Santa Fe, N. NJ,
NEW YORK, Oct. 7, 1S92.-Your letter
of October received, stating that Dele
gate Joseph in public speech delivered in
Albuquerque recently declared that the
Republican national committee had sub
sidized the Temescal tin mines in order
to enable them to continue operating
until after election.
"This Statement is absolutely false, and
authorize you to issue in my name an
unqualified denial.
"THos. H. CARTER, Chairman"
But then Joseph does not mind this;
one lie more or less in this campaign
from him certainly makes very little diff
ference. His reputation in that line is so
fully and strongly established, that one
lie more or less can neither add to it nor
diminish it.
But right here the query arises: How
can decent and truth loving men vote for
Joseph?

and protection of American lead mine

interesting to learn just where Mr.. Jo-
seph stands on the silver question? You
may not, perhaps, have noticed it, but it
is nevertheless fact that Antonio has
been laying very shady on this all i'm
portant question to the laboring men of
New Mexico. Not once has he opened
his mouth on the sub ject, either in his
public speeches or his interviews. Let's
have the facts, Mr.. Joseph. No lodging

LOOKS BETTER FOR SILVER.

SILVER is looking up. Several things
have happened of late to cause this, but
the mastery manner in which President
Harrison, in spite of many obstacles, has
forced his proposed international none
tary conference upon the notice of the
monetary circles of all nations, is chiefly
responsible for it. Jesse Seligman, who
went abroad under special instructions
from the president concerning this con
ference, has returned to New York and
the hopeful views heexpresses haveserve
to cause unusual activity in silver circles.

The Worlds Greatest Wonder.

Hunt up half hundred forceful and
inclsive adjectives, suitable for description
OF sublime and inspiring scenery; then
take a trip to the Grand Canon of the
Colorado, and you will throw them aside
as being inadequate.
The worlds greatest wonder is the
Grand Canon of the Colorado river, in
Arizona. Yellowstone Park and Yose.
mite take second place; Niagara Falls is

mere hills, compared with the stupendous
chasms and heights of the Grand Canon.
This hitherto inaccessible region has

SAN MIGUEL COUNTY NOMINATIONS.

ticket in the county of San Miguel are
good and strong ones; the decent citizens
of that county ought to make powerful
effort to throw off the White Cap yoke
that has burdened them for two years

interest in that grand county All good
citizens of San Miguel should stand

A SIMPLE BUSINESS PROPOSITION FOR sANTAFE.

With the voters of Santa Fe county it
is simple, very simple, business prop
osition. Democratic gang victory this
fall means lawlessness and corruption in
county affairs; it means weakness in the
legislative assembly; it means the with
drawal and non-investment of outside
capital. Success of the Republican ticket
means honesty in county affairs and pro
lection to life and property; it means
an influx of large amount of outside
capital seeking investment. The choice
should certainly not be difficult for the
honest law-abiding citizen, for the prop
erty owner and for the merchant.

CLEVELAND'S LETTER.


NE Is Guilty Either of Gross Ignorance
or Willful Misrepresentation.
Mr.. Clevelauds letter is character
istic document. From first to last it is
an expression of demagogy and cant.
Under the mask of high moral pre-.
tensions the chronic candidate assails
the American system of protection with
a bitterness that could hardly be ex.
ceeded by the greediest foreign manu-
facturer that seeks to displace American
goods with those made by his own
pauper labor. According to Mr.. Cleve-
land, tariff taxation for the sake Of
protection" is opposed to every senti.
ment of justice and fairness" 1t is, he
declares, $50 clearly contrary to the
spirit Of our constitution and so directly
encourages the disturbance by selfish.
ness and greed Of patriotic sentiment
that its statement would rudely shock
our people if they had not already been
insidiously allured from the safe land.
marks of principles"
Yet it is q matter of historic record
that this system-which Mr.. Cleveland
and the Democracy, in accordance with
the precepts of the Confederate consti'
tuition, would abolish entirely was
steadfastly maintained by the states
men who framed the constitution of the
United States, among whom were
George Washington, James Madison,
Thomas jefferson and James Monroei
and it is historic fact that the second
act passed by the American congress:
after the adoption of the new constitu
ton was an act for the protection OF
American industry which James Mad!
son reported to the house and which
George Washington signed as president,
Later in our history we find that An.
drew Jackson, Daniel Webster and
Henry Clay were avowed champions Of
protection. On the side Of the tariff are
arrayed the most honored names in the
annals Of this country; the free trad4
cause is represented by the first seces'
sionist, John G. Calhoun, by jefferson
Davis, and by Grover Cleveland and the
Chicago Democratic platform. 1t will
not take the American people long ii
choose between these rival authorities.
Mr.. Cleveland has disregarded the
facts of the present as well as the his
tory of the past. His parrotlike reitera
ton of the senseless claim that the tariff
is tax upon the American consumer
an assertion utterly disproved by the
fact, admitted by Senator Carlisle, thai
since the enactment of the Mckinley
tariff manufactured products have
steadily grown cheaper-is a piece OF
pure demagogy. To assume that thu
Democratic candidate did not know thai
he was uttering a falsehood when he
made this claim would be to accuse him
ofphenomenal ignorance.
The assertion that the Democratic
party, while holding a protective tariff
wicked and unconstitutional, is not fol
free trade will deceive nobody. In his
letter of acceptance Mr.. Cleveland
writes himself down the enemy of the
vast army of American workingmen,
whose high wages have been main
tanned and whose independence and
prosperity have been secured by the sys.
tenn which the Democratic party has
pledged itself to overthrow.-New York
