THE HERALD will cease its attacts
on the ruler of the Panhandle for
the present. We expect to see him
in limbo inside of ten days.
When the court gets through
with him we may take another
whack at him if there is anything
left. We have two selections filed
away, one from the Missoula Ca
zette; the other from the Chicago
Inter Ocean; each going to show-up
the Supreme Court Of tina Panhan-

tuition is making Bonner's Ferry in
the eyes of the outside world.

fact of the act of the last legisla.
ture creating the counties Of Alta
and Lincoln being declared uncon-
stitutional by the supreme court
does not effect the legality Of the
apportionment law as relating to
other counties. Its a pretty mess
that Idaho finds herself in. 1t
looks as though the next legislature
would have to wipe out all the old
election laws and start in new.
Idaho made itself ridiculous by
electing four United States senators.
1t is now about to make itself still
further ridiculous by electing two
legislatures.

KooTENAI VALLEY will place on
at the Worlds Columbian
Exposition the largest head of cab
bage in the world. 1t was raised
by Collector J. c. Rykert, Her
Majesty's officer at the Boundary
Line. The head Of cabbage weighs
go pounds. Mr.. Ryckert raised ten
head whose combined weight was
over a quarter Of a ton. This will
help to inform the world that the
Kootenai Valley is the greatest gar
den spot of the earth.

The voters of North Kootenai
have been honored with only one
nomination upon the various tickets
in the field. What is lacking in
number is, however, made up for in
the quality Of that one nominee.
John Donahoe, for representative
to the state legislature, is as good a
selection as could have been made.
Home pride should give Mr.. Dona-
hoe unanimous vote at Bonner's
Ferry.

DEMOCRATIC ELECTORS WITHDRAWN

The democratic state central
committee last Monday withdrew
its candidates for presidential cleo
tors and endorsed the peoples party
nominees. The explanation is in
the fact that the democrats, believ-
ing that they can not carry the
state for Cleveland, hope that by
uniting with the peoples party
they can elect their nominees, and
thus defeat the Harrison men.
This course the democrats intend
to pursue in Colorado, Nevada,
South Dakota and several other re-
publican states. Should the fusion
ticket carry, it may be the means
of throwing the election into the
house, in which event the demo-
Gratis would elect their president.
The movement is, of course, an
experiment and the result will be
watched with considerable interest.
1t has been claimed that the dem
ocrats would not all endorse this
action. That many would prefer
to vote for Harrison to Weaver.
But as a strategical movement in
favor of party success, the HERALD
believes they will go solid for the
fusion ticket. Democratic papers
arriving from south Idaho would
indicate as much at least. The
movement throws the result in
Idaho in doubt, and there will be
much hustling between now and
election day.

BRADsTREET's Journal of Trade,
one of the most conservative jour
nails in America has the following
to say of the presidential campaign:
A certain degree Of apathy appears
to characterize the political cam
paign this year, in spite Of the fact
that the great prize Of the presiden-
cy is at stake. The more candid
members of both the great parties
between whom the struggle lies
admit that the campaign thus far is
a slow one, though the organs Of
both parties insist that the apathy
is confined to their antagonists,
while unwonted enthusiasm is dis
played by their own supporters.
The time for the really active work
will be shorter than usual this year,
owing to the celebration Of the ami
versary Of the discovery Of America
by Columbus, which will extend
over a period Of ten days or 50 in
the middle Of October. The work
Of closing the campaign will have
to be particularly energetic to lift it
as whole to the general level Of
enthusiasm.

Kootenai Valley Fruit.

Mr., A. J. Ball, one Of the pros
porous ranchers of the Kootenai
valley, was in the city this week.
Mr.. Ball has been experimenting
with the culture Of fruit on his
ranch. He says that his young
orchard this year produced apples
and pears Of an excellent quality,
and he thinks as soon as the trees
are old enough they will produce
in great quantities. 1t seems some
what strange that good pears can be
raised in this far northern latitude,
only a few miles from the British
line, but those posted claim that the
climate nda seasons will permit of
the successful raising of fruit in
this valley. Many ranchers are
buying fruit trees for next year, and
we expect soon to see the great
Kootenai mining country supplied
with fruit gathered from the orch
ards in the valley of the same name.

POLITICAL POINTERS.

A better man than Hon. John A.
Miller could not be elected by the people
of Grant for the office of county clerk.
H. B. Ferguson, of Albuquerque, is to
be named for member of the Democratic
national committee for New Mexico
stick pin right here.
&c. Kello, ex-county clerk of San
Juan county, would make fIst-class
race for the legislative assembly in his
county Of San Juan on the Republican
ticaet.
The Democrats opposition to ldus L.
Fielder did not amount to much. That
gentleman was elected by reclamation as
a delegate to the Chicago convention. -
Albuquerque Citizen.
1t is claimed that several of the Demo
cratic delegates are favorable to Cleve-
land. They are pledged against him IN
the platform, but this will make little diff
fereDce.-Albuquerque Citizen.
The New MEXICAN was "forninst'
Ross and for Fielder in the recent fight
ergo, Ross was beaten and Fielder is q
delegate to the Chicago convention. The
New MExIcAN's tow line is alright.
1t is said, that Lorenzo Lopez, the man
whose influence has given Felix Martinez
his swing, is becoming tired of playing
second fiddle for Martinez dancing in San
Miguel county. About time, about time.
1t is very necessary, from all accounts,
that better and more thorough organi-
cation be had among the Republicans OF
Taos county; the leading men of the
party in that county should get together
and work.
G. Bantz wants to be candidate on
the Democratic ticket for the council from
Grant and Dona Ana, but Fielder will
knock HIM out as he did on the delegate
ship. Fate is fate, Gideon, and you and
Ross are not in it this season.
1t will he quite fierce fight between
A. l.. Branch and Mscario Gallegos for
the control of the Democratic machinery
in Mora county. However, Branch has
more experience and is right strong man
among the Mora county Democracy.

indicted by the grand jury for killing his
uncle, and placed in Jail. He was one of

An Eiectment suit.

J. B.'Dawson owns fine ranch prop
erty in Colfax county within the limits Of
the Maxwell grant. He procured it by
purchase from Lucien Maxwell, and
claims that it covers some $1,000 acres,
included in which is large area of coal
lands, covering at least six square miles.
The Maxwell Grant company have
brought suit to eject Mr.. Dawson from all
that portion of the land claimed save
that which his deed from Maxwell actual
y calls for. The case was argued at Las
Vegas on Monday, when Messrs. T. B.
Catron and Frank Springer appeared for
the grant company and A. A. Jones for
Dawson. Parties who heard the argu-
ments say that Mr.. Catron on this occa-
sion delivered one of the ablest arguments
ever heard in New Mexico court room.

away off yet, and need not worry any one
at present.
Marceino Garcia, ex-county clerk OF
this county, and who had charge Of that
celebrated Galisteo ballot box, is, so the
New MEXICAN is informed, a candidate
for the nomination for sheriff on the

Were it not for that blamed ballot
Last night the old town band serenaded
Idus l.. Fielder, of Silver City, at the San
Felipe hotel. Mr.. Fielder and Felix Mar
,inez, of Las Vegas, made speeches, and
some one invited the crowd to go down
town and take drink and the meeting
stood adjourned Albuquerque Citizen.
1t appears that the selection of Idus l..
Fielder as one of the delegates to Chicago
is not at all agreeable to the Santa Fe coun-
ty Democrats. The delegates from this
county were for Ross and Martinez, but
the latter, they charge, went back on
them at the last moment and sold them
out by going into combine with the
Fergusson-F faction.
, According to the very best account, 9.
, F. Easley was very anxious to go as
delegate to Chicago, but Bernard Selig-
man laid him out in first'class style. The
chances are that Don Bernardo is not yet
| even with the Hon. G. F. Easley. The
latter may want the Democratic nomina.
ton for the council in Santa Fe county.

cratic central committee on Monday, al

i success. He should not have announced
. himself as candidate for delegate to the
3 national convention, until he discovered
l whether any of the delegates in the terri
toria convention were favorable to him
The result of the convention shows tina
he did not do this. His fight on silver
was against him, and so was Mr.. Fergus
son, who is having considerable to say
about Democratic politics and men in
New Mexico just at this time. The colo.

Hon. /. b. Catron came in last night
from Las Vegas and left the city early this
morning over the narrow gauge TO attend
court at Taos. A New MEXICAN reporter
caught him on the fly and had the follow
ing interview with him:
"Glad to hear of your sale of n portion
of the TERRA Amarillo grant, Mr., Catron "
"Sale That is news to me. have
not made any sale. What do you mean ?"
"The New MEXICAN was informed
through various channels, deemed reia,
BILE, and so published it last night that you
had on Tuesday, at Cerrilos, sold to A.
H. Patterson, of Fort Collins, Colo, the
Colorado portion of the TERRA Amarillo
grant for 100000"
81 have made no such sale to Patterson
or any other man, nor have | any hope oil
selling the TERRA Amarillo grant or any
portion OF it till the repeal of the alieE act
or the admission of New Mexico as a
state"
You deny the transaction, then?
Most emphatcally. These reports
that you have heard about my selling the
grant, or part OF it, are altogether untrue
and without foundation, and an entire
myth, and | do not see how such reports
could get into circulation"
