The ticket which was placed in
nomination here at the democrat
ic convention last Saturday is one
of the strongest ever nominated in
this county by either Of the politi-
cal parties. 1t is a ticket which
every democrat in the county can
vote from top to bottom, without a
scratch.
James N. Upton, the nominee
for sheriff, has served in the capac-
ity of county commissioner, to
which office he was elected two
years ago by an overwhelming ma
jority. He has made a good Of
fcer and will ill the Office of sher-
if Of Grant County for two years
from the first of next January to
the satisfaction of the people of
this county. He is a capable and
sober man.
Edgar NJ. Young, who was nom
mated for probate clerk, is too well
known TO the people of this county
TO need any extended notice here.
He is a man Of undoubted homes
ty and integrity and viii be re-
elected by a handsome majority.
George w. Miles, the nominee
for assessor, has served the county
in the capacity of superintendent
of schools in a very acceptable
manner, and will make "a good as,
sessor. He is one of the most pop.
ular young men in the county and
will be elected by a large majority
Louis l. Marshall, the nomineC
for probate judge, is we'll qualified
10 fill the position, and there is NJ
doubt Of his election. Heretofor,
there has been too little attention
paid to this important Office.
The nominee for the Office 0
county surveyor, George II
Brown, is a United States deput
mineral and land surveyor and j
in every way qualified to fill tn
Office. He is popular and will b
elected.
For superintendent OF school
the democratic party Of this coun
ty did itself proud when it nomi
mated Miss Kate Thompson. Tn
nomination was announced ami,
the widest enthusiasm, and vote
will DO cast for her with the sam
enthusiasm on the 9th of Novem

CATRON AND THE "BUTTON So
GETTY"

Santa Fe sun.
In the coroner's Investigation Of
the brutal assassination of Frank
Chavez, witnesses were put on the
stand to show that Frank Chavez
knew of a conspiracy entered into
at a meeting Of the knights Of
Law and Order, Familiarity known
as the "button society,"" about two
years ago. One Of the four men
selected to do the killing gave the
conspiracy away TO his godfather,
Juan Sisneros of this city, on Jan
uary 16, 1891. At the request of
Sisneros, he wrote the following
note in Spanish; january 1--we
four are compromised to kill
Francisco Chaves-Francisco
Gonzalez y Borrego, Patricio VAL
encio, Hipolito Vigil and an
other" meaning himself. This
note Sisneros Immediately gave to
Frank Chavez aud it was found
among his papers in his wallet af-
ter his assassination about sixteen
months after it was given to him.
Chavez was also advised of another
conspiracy to kill him entered into
at a meeting Of the knights OF
Mutual Protection" in this city
last spring. One of the persons
present at the meeting gave Cha
vez all the information. Chavez
consulted two or three Of hisfriends
in this city about the matter, tell
ing them Of the information that
had come to him. These matters
were all shown to the c~oroner's
jury. Among the testimony there
produced occurs the following,
from a member of the organization
in which these conspiracies we're
Matched, which shows Catron's
connection with the organization.
This is from the notes of the sworn
stenographer at the investigation
and it will now be in order for
Catron to rise and explain what
he meant when he said at Albu-
querque on Thursday night that
he was not a member of any secret
political society at Santa Fe.

The Joseph bill now pending
before Congress, clothing the peo-
pie Of New Mexico with authority
to form a state government, will
unquestionably be materially
amended in the Senate. If the
measure as it passed the House
land a more liberal enabling act
never was framed) is modified in
the slightest degree by the Senate
it will have to go back to the
House for approval of the amend
ed provisions. Meanwhile suppose
such a misfortune should be visit
ed upon New Mexico as the defeat
of Mr.. Joseph and the election of
Boss Catron. What would be the
result? Simply this. When Mr..
Joseph called up his amended bill
in December, his democratic col
leagues in the overwhelmingly
democratic House would cluster
around him, and ask nina repu-
dated candidate for reelection--to
explain what interest he had in a
measure that, if passed, would
probably result in the still further
promotion of his %autocratic anC
domineering republican opponent
Mr.. Joseph would doubtless reply
that good faith to his constituents
regardless of partisan considera
tons, made it his bounden duty
to urge the passage of the bill
But he would appeal in vain. TIL,
democratic members of the Housl
and particularly the majority o
the committee on territories cor
daily dislike the frowning ant
INSCRIPTIONS land grabbing part
ner ofsthe smiling and equally un

clude that the only hope for tn
/, passage of an enabling act by tn
present Congress is the r~eelectio.

clearing and was just in the act of cross
ing 1t when grizzly and three cubs
emerged from the timber on the opposite
side OF the clearing. McCartie was
armed with Sharp's rifle, which con-
tanned but one load and, not feeling dis
posed to tackle the bear single handed,
was preparing to retreat when the bear
sighted him and made for him on the
dead run. McCartie waited until she
was within good shooting distance when
he took aim and fred, the bullet striking
IN her neck and knocking her down. Nc
CARTE then turned and started to run,
but IN jumping from the log on which
he was standing his foot struck small
er log and he was thrown headforemost
into the snow. Before he could regain
his feet the bear was upon him, clawing
and biting, and had it not been for the
timely arrival of Coe the unfortunate
man would surely have been killed.
Coe, who was near by when the shot was
fired, hurried in the direction of the
shooting and arrived on the scene just
in time to see the bear pounce upon Nc
Carte. Hastily drawing his rifle to his
shoulder he fired three shots into her
body and as he fired the third one the
animal gave a howl of pain and releas-
ing her hold upon McCartie, turned and
beat retreat into the timber \ few
minutes later Murphy, who had been
attracted by the rapid firing, came into
the clearing just in time to dispatch
the three cubs who had returned in
search of their mother McCartie was
found to be seriously injured and was
placed in wagon and taken down to
Goes ranch. A courier was dispatched
after DR.. Campbell, who hastened to
the injured man, when 1t was found that
his skull had been fractured in three
places, one piece of the skull being
found in his hat. In addition to these
injuries he was also bitten on the leg
and arm, and had his face lacerated al
most beyond recognition, one eyelid be-
ing entirely removed. After taking 69
stitches in his face the doctor dressed
the remaining injuries and on Thursday
McCartie was brought to the city and
placed in the county hospital where he
is doing as we'll as could be expected.
On the day following the encounter 8
hunting party was formed and the trai
OF the bear followed twelve miles back
into the mountains, but the party were
unable to locate her.

A. E. McCartie, farm hand who has
been employed on the ranch of George
Coe on Shields river, had narrow es
cape from death at the hands OF grizzly
on Monday last. Several bear had been
seen in the vicinity Of Mr.. Goes ranch
lately and on Sunday James killorn,
James Murphy and McCartie started on
their trail and in the afternoon ran onto
a bunch of five grizzlies in the Crazy
mountains, about three miles from Goes
ranch. Two of the number were killed
and on the following day Coe, McCartie,
and Murphy took two horse team and
went up 10 the mountains after their
game. The team was left at the foot OF
the mountains and the three men sepa-
rated and started up to where the car
cases of the bear had been left. A few
minutes later McCartie reached small
