QUESTIONS BEFORE THE LAND COURT.

The court of private land claims has
reassembled and the business and ques-
tons before it will soon be decided.
The law as it stands is good in principle
but badly framed. One important defect
is that titles shall not be confirmed eE-
cept by the rectangular metes and
bounds of legal subdivisions established
by the land office. In the cases of farms
made up of Mexican ''terrenos" this is
impossible But like Oliver Twist we can
still ask for more until congress oorrects
the incongruities of the act. The law
now is of no benefit to the poor man.
1t is somewhat hard to predict the de-
cision of the court on the eleven league
clause. The section would seem to be
mandatory and was placed in the bill in
Difference to the howl about land mono
polists, princedoms and soforth.
In this connection, it is timely to ascer-
tain, what the U. S. Supreme court
thinks of this clause. This rethoric,"
says the U. S, supreme court in
the case of the L. S. VS.. Switzerland, 10,
How. 365, might have a just influence
when urged by those who have right to
Give or refuse. Il + This court has
no discretion to enlarge or curtail such
| Grants to suit its own sense OF proprlety,
or defeat Just claims, however extensive,
by stringent technical rules of construc-
ton to which they were not originally
ubiectod." Under this decision, on the
other hand, it would seem that the court
has ample opportunity to regard the
treaty obligations, and also to follow the
example of congress, that by special act
has confirmed many land grants in eI-
cess of eleven leagues.
The question for the land court to i'm
mediately decide is the limit of its juris
diction. Congress on the record poses
as Philip drunk and Philip sober,
and the court must determine (which il

A GRAND STEP FOR SILVER.

That is rather startling proposition
which comes from England by way of the
Brussels conference to make five-pound
English notes payablein silver. But is no
more startling than the other proposition
which the English delegates to the interna-
tional monetary conference suggest, j. e,
An agreement that the powers therein
represented enter into five year agree
ment to buy silver, buying just as the
United States is doing to-day.
In view of the great hue and cry which
has been raised against the existing
American law by Wall street and the
eastern press, and by the press of En-
gland and Germany, it will be interesting
to note what these gold-bugs have TO say
now of such proposition coming from
q Rothchilds speaking for the government
of Great Britain.
But to US western people the English
plan is most important because it shows
that at last the leading nations of the
world have reached the conclusion that

TIE REPUBLICAN MEMBERS OF The COUNCIL.

The Democrats are talking very glibly
about the benefits of organizing the coun-
Gil in a non-partisan manner, but they do
not offer to organize the lower house that
way. The Democrats are smooth people.
Albuquerque Citizen.
Everything is fish that comes to the
Democratic nett the house should be or
ganized with full set of Democratic
officials and the council should be organ
lied on a non-partisan basis so as to give
the Democrats good show at the council
offices also and thusly control legislation.
That is the plan and 1t has been worked
on ever since it was determined who was
elected.
An emissary from this city was sent
down to Albuquerque to work the scheme
up. but SO far the scheme has not ma
terialized and the chances against its
taking effective shape are becoming more
and more daily.
Theaouncil contains seven Republicans;
they are all men of intelligence and well
posted in public affairs and some of them
have had great Legislative experience.
With these seven men in great meas
ure rests the future of the Republican
party of New Mexico. By standing
closely and squarely together, by insist
ing on good and wholesome legislation
by killing all jobs that may come up
from the lower house and by protecting
the rights of the people against monop'
olies, these seven Republican council
men can make a record that will be Of
the greatest possible benefit to the Re
publican party in our coming state cleo
ton, of great credit to themselves ant
to the advancement and progress of thu
territory.

come with all kinds of fattering scheme
and offers of personal favors, but the.

It is recommended by the State Central Com
mittee that the County Committees in the re-
BpectiYe Counties call primaries for the election
OF delegates to a County Convention, primaries
to be held on Saturday August 9Th, and that the
County Conventions be held in the several
Counties on Saturday August the 18th, for the
election Of delegates to the State Convention in
Olympia, as herein provided.
1t is further recommended that the primaries
for the election Ofdelegates to the several COun-
ty Conventions be conducted as nearly as prac-
heable under the Primary Election Laws Of the
State of Washington, in order that no harm may
come to the Democratic Party from the efforts Of
designing persons to manipulate and have voice
in what are known as "Open" Ward or Precinct
Caucuses. No one should be permitted to par
ucipate in Democratic Primaries unless he be a
resident Of the Precinct whereat he offers to
vote and unless he be known to be a Democrat,
or is properly VOuched for as such.
1t is further recommended that whenever two
or more counties are associated together for leg
1slative or judicial purposes, then that the
officers of the County Central Committees in
such Counties join in calling a Convention to
nominate Candidates for such legislative or ju-
dicial Offices
BY order Of the Democratic State Central Com
mittee.
