IRE LOGICAL PRICE OF LIVING.

A great deal 10 now being said relative
to the cost of living in Europe and in this
country. Let the situation be considered
logically moment. Europe buys our
meat and bread stufTs at our home mar
ket price, and sells them to her people
plus the ocean freight. 1t does not need
the vast research therefore of our labor
bureau to convince the thinking workman
that in the first essentials of life-bread
and meat-he fares better than his Eu-
ropean competitor. 1t may be- safely
asserted that 81 Of American money will
bny at home as much meat and bread as
$1.25 will buy in Europe, quality Of
being equal. Will the housewives in the
United States calculate their weekly ex'
penses Oh this basis and then give their
husbands tip?

The NARROW GAUGE SYSTEM.

The Denver & Rio Grande railroad
system has bad very prosperous year,
and this, too, in the face OF very many
unbusiness-like attempts on the part Of
many of the subordinate officials in
charge to cut New Mexico traffic out of
existence whenever opportunity offered.
President jeffrey undoubtedly deserves
credit for his reforms as far as inaugurated
and perhaps another year he will 90
further and weed out many other weak
spots that have been too long allowed to
sap the life OF the institution.
During the fiscal year just closed the
roads net earnings were $3,70S,353 The
road is clearing above all expenses, near
ly 100000 upon preferred stock Of
1923, $50 900, and its stock is now quoted
in New York at $l1S.

fair thing by southern Colorado and
northern New Mexico next year vii

Our friends, the enemy, are bowling
themselves hoarse because the Repub-
licans of New Mexico, in accordance with
the letter and the spirit of the law, are
paying the poll taxes in order to be qrali-
fed and legal voters at the coming cleo
tons; charges are being made that Hon.
7. B. Catron is advancing the money /;
this is untrue; the poll taxes are being paid
by good many Republicans themselves
and others are being paid by the several
central committees OF the counties. This
Is all open and above board business and
there is not the slightest necessity for
secrecy about it. The law ls being obeyed
by the Republicans, that is all the Demo-
cratic bosses are opposed to this law as
they are to all laws that purify elections
and give the people fair chance at the
ballot; the aim OF the Democratic bosses
and White Cap leaders in New Mexico is
to carry elections by stealing ballot boxes,
buying and corrupting voters and by
fraudulent returns. Again there Is the
difference. Let the voters choose.

make a campaign for free trade, as he

What protection has done and what a
Democratic revenue tariff has done are
matters of history. From 1S47 to 1861
under a free trade revenue tariff, the
balance of trade against us was more
than $431 100000, and there were but
two years of the fifteen when the bal
ance of trade was in our favor; while IL
the fifteen years from 1876 to 1891 there
were just two years when the balance Of
trade was against us. We were ther

the candidate of the party for delegate to
congress Hon. Thomas b. Catron, of
Santa Fe. Mr.. Catron is without doubt
one of the ablest and most capable men
in the Republican party. In the past the
Index has felt constrained to oppose and
criticse MIR. Catron. But that was on
issues now most happily settled; and this
journal now gives the gentleman most
cordial and earnest support, believing that
he will be most capable and efficient
representative and that his personal
standing at Washington will give this
territory q prestige never heretofore en-
joyed. He should be elected, and the
Index believes he will be.-San Juar

A FAIR ELECTION.

AT an very secret and private confer
ence of the Democratic bosses the other
evening at house, not 1000 miles from
the New MEXICAN. Office, the situation
was discussed and the Democratic gang
bosses were bewaling their fate because
the chances for stealing ballot boxes,
having Republican majorities and for
counting out honestly apd fairly elected
Republicans, were decidedly small. The
New MEXICAN does not blame them ;
they can not come any OF these corrupt
and dishonest practices this year; the
elections in Santa Fe county will be fairly
and honestly conducted and full, free
and fair expression of the will of the
people will be had. No nonsense and no
intimidation this time. The days OF
bulldozing voters by the hirelings OF the
Democratic gang here are past.

READY MADE CLOTHING.
Another Load for the Calamityite Camel

Another Load for the Calamityite Camel
to Bear.
Rochester is after New York and
Philadelphia the largest center of the
manufacture of ready made clothing.
1t is convenient locality for subjecting
one of the Democratic issues of 1890 to a
practical test. 1t was assumed two
years ago that prices Of ready made
clothing would be advanced in conse-
quence of the passage of the Mckinley
act, and also that the wages of workmen
in that trade would be reduced by man
ufacturers as an offset to the increased
cost of material.
Our staff correspondent shows that
neither of these results has followed.
Ready made clothing is as cheap as ii
was two years ago and the workmen are
making as good wages, with the marked
advantage of steadier employment. The
price lists and wage schedules of the
manufacturers demonstrate the falsity
of the predictions made two years agQir
both respects.
1t was one of the chief objects of the
Mckinley act to secure the production
in the United States of large variety
of the finer manufactures of both wooler
and Gotten goods. This result has al
ready been partially accomplished. En-
largements and improvements in woolel
mills have been made and many new
factories have been built. Not only il
every wooden mill in the country run
ming on full time, but there is also /
marked Improvement in the qualities O
manufactured goods. The greatest &C
tivity prevails in this branch of business
and the number of competitors for sap
plying the home market with material
for clothing is rapidly increasing.
If the Mckinley law remains in opera
ton a few years longer the effect of large
ly increased competition will be full.

sumers will inevitably follow. Mean
while there is no increased burden t.

The Democratic Way.

The country has recently experienced
four important and serious strikes. AT
Homestead the strike was commenced
by boss workmen engaged at exceeding.
ly high wages in producing articles on
which the tariff had been reduced by
the Mckinley bill. At the Ceur d'Alene
silver mines the strike was by union
workingmen engaged in producing an
article which bears no tariff duty. In
Tennessee the issue is convict labor and
in New York the trouble is in the un.
fairfield railroad business. Yet the whole
thing will be charged to the oppression
and robbery of the Mckinley tariff tax
