To Test the Law.

LANSING, Mich, May 3.-Colonel
Muffield, of Detroit. counsel for William
Mcpherson and thirteen of her Republi-
can presidential electors, to-day asked
the Supreme court for a writ of man
damus to compel the secretary of state
to have delivered to the session in the
state a notice in writing, between July l
and September l, that at the next general
election there will be chosen electors for
president and vice president of the
United States for the state of Michigan
The action was brought to test the con-
stutionality of the Miner election law,
which was enacted by the last Legislature.
The court issued an order to show why
writs should not issue as prayed for.
The order is returnable on May -.

UNDER the pernicious sugar bounty
provisions OF the Mckinley bill, says the
Pittsburg RaSi, the internal revenue de
partmcut, which has charge of the pay
mcnts, has received and passed upon p
7SI bounty claims. They represent IN
bounty 1920, POI, OF which total 81
95i, i,9l6 has already been paid. OF tins
sum received by the sugar producers
Louisiana has received 81, 53I, $50. The
total production of sugar last season IN
Louisiana was about $50, ,0O0, 600 pounds
which viii entitle the planters to bounty
t. the amounts something short of 81,
OOJ, 600. The consumption OF the
country Is about ten times the Louisiana
product.
The payments have fallen below the
estimates, which were put as high as
SI2. 600, 900, but the crop fell short Of
expectations owing to unfavorablc wealth
cr. In Louisiana much larger acreage
was planted in the expectation of profit
ing 10y the bounty, but overflow and eX-
ccssivc drought during the summer
months seriously impaired the promise
of crop, accounting for the light yield
which resulted Nevertheless, according
To the New Orleans PcaytHe, "the prices
received for the seasons yield were fairly
satisfactory, considering the increased
competition due to the free sugar law,
and this fact, together with the bounty
paid by the government, has made the
result of the season not unsatisfactory to
the planters. We should say 50. The
| distribution of over six millions of dol
lars among the limited number of plant
| ers, who received, aside from the bounty,
remunerative prices for their product,
| ought to make the business very profit
able, and it i so no doubt OF course
the bounty, Ike protection for the i'm
poverished Carnegies of the North, now
becomes a necessity to be continued in
definitely. They can't get along with
out it. But what better claim have the
sugar farmers for government bounty
than the grain farmers or the oil produc-
ers2 The latter are suffering from low
| prices because Of Russian competition.
Why not vote them Il bounty of two
cents pound on the oil they produce

SENATOR Hill, speaking at Washing
ton last week of the Apportionment in
Albany, said:
| do not conceal my qualification over
the result of the new apportionmeut
made 10y the Legislature to-day. IL Is
the crowning act of last falls victory.
Its importance cannot be over eXtImated.
Ii enables the people for the first time in
thirty years to be equitably and fairly
represented in the legislature, and gives
to the Democratic party hereafter the
control of that body in both branches.
The apportionment Is both morally
right and cOnstitutionally correct. The
pretense of the Republicans that it Is
unconstitutional Will avail them nothing.
The court must and will decide against
them, because their claims are frivolous
and ungrounded. For seven years the
Republicans refused to take an enumera-
ton to make an apportionment when
they had an opportunity to do 50 them
selves, and now they must suffer the
consequences of their folly.
The Democrats will now realize the
importance Of their triumph last fall and
appreciate how much they have secured
by obtaining the present Democratic
legislature. Some concessions, which
ought not to have been insisted upon,
were necessarily made to secure the pass
age of the bill, but they Will only reduce
and will not cripple or affect our con-
troll. The legislature is to be congratu-
lated on its good work. 1t has made,
upon the whole, a most creditable re-
cord.

Burned in Their Beds.

CoRRY, May about O'Clock Sat
urday morning the small residence of
John Long, Jr, burned with all its con-
tents. Two little children asleep in bed
were taken out literally roasted. The
mother who has little babe, was busily
engaged about her household duties
when the fire burst out. She grabbed
her babe and ran screaming to the yard.
She started to return, but gust of flame
badly burned her. When neighbors
dragged out the boy all on fire, the little
ones were dead, their bodies burned and
disfgured 1t is supposed that the gas
pipe burst near the stove, causing the
fire. and the house burned like a tinder-
box

this fact may be attributed the qmetness

SENATOR ALDRICH practically an
nounced at Washington ON Monday that
no tariff legislation would pass the Sen
ate this session. This was apropos of
the free binding twine bill passed by the
House. Even this bill which the West
wants 50 much, he said, would not pass
and intimated that to prevent any awk-
wardness the Finance committee would
not embarrass the Western Republican
Senators by reporting the bill The Re
publicans have taken their stand on the
Mckinley law and there they apparently
propose TO remain.

SECRETARY Fosters advice to off ce-

But why should the proprieties apply
especially to the South and why should
there be any invidous distinction be-
tween state and national conventions?

WaRREN'S PREvARlCATlONS.

Gov. N. o. Murphy, OF Arizona, first
became acquainted with Mr.. Catron at
Minneapolis and afterward met him at
Washington, where he was doing hard
work for the admission of New Mexico as
a state. Since the Las Vegas convention
Gov. Murphy remarked to the Reporter
"Well 1 see you have nominated Mr..
Catron for delegate. He is an able man
and a strong man, and you ought to elect
him." The Reporter informed him that
it was the intention of the people of New
Mexico to elect Mr.. Catron.-San Marcial
Reporter.
In connection with the above it is well
to remind the people Of New Mexico that
one Henry L. Warren, of Albuquerque, a
man Of very unsavory character, charges
that Governor Murphy, of Arizona, told
him, the aforesaid Warren, that Mr..
Catron's presence in Washington and
connection with the work for the passage
of an enabling act for New Mexico, did
nothing but harm and that Mr.. Catron
was an improper man to send to Wash
ington, etc.
The New MEXICAN then and there as.
serted that Warren did not tell the truth.
The statement OF the Reporter certainly
carries out the New MExIcAN's asser-
ton.
Evidence is accommodating daily that the
Democratic bosses and White Cap leaders
and some of their candidates would rather
lie than tell the truth. They seem to be
built that way.

The secret Of the Democratic fault
finding is well grounded fear of the
man who now sits in the White House.
Four years have demonstrated that Ben
jamin Harrison Is very clear headed,
farseeing man and no novice in politics.
He believes in practical work in its very
best sense and understands how to plan
it shrewdly and ably direct its execution.
1t is this fact that incites Democratic
misrepresentation and abuse. The Bour-
bons would gladly rob the Republicans
Of the advice and counsel of President
Harrison, for they know nothing would
weaken them more. This being under
stood, Democratic criticisms on this
point are unworthy Of attention.

RAINBOW CHASING.

The Democratic campaign managers
claim that they will carry San Miguel
and Guadalupe counties by 1900 majority
for Joseph, and Mora by from 500 to 800,
Lincoln by $50, Chavez by $50 and Col
fax by $50. These are nice figures to
look at, but that is as far as it will 70 this
time. The figures are not only away off,
but more; MIR. Catron, in all human
probability, will carry some of the coun'
ties named. The New MEXICAN INDUCES
in no wild guesses in making this
prediction, but simply bases the same
upon facts and figures submitted by men
thoroughly acquainted with the political
condition of these counties. Our friends,
the enemy, can do all the rainbow chas-
ing they wish to- this journal sticks to
facts.

The Worlds Greatest Wonder.

Hunt up half a hundred forceiul 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
dwarfted and the Adirondacks seem like
mere hills, compared with the stupendous
chasms and heights of the Grand Canon.
This hitherto inaccessible region has
just been opened for tourists by stage line
from Flagstaff, A. T., on the trans.conti-
mental highway of the A., T. S. F. r.
r. The round trip can be made comfort
ably, quickly, and at a reasonable expense.
Nearest agent of Santa Fe route will
quote excursion rates, on application. An
illustrated pamphlet is in preparation,
fully describing the many beauties and
wonders Of the Grand Canon. Write to
