We take it that our two Democratic

recklessly criticise them. 1t is their
business to know, and they are in the
proper place to learn. These journals
are str wing to make an erroneous
impression on the public mind by
charging our Representatives with
opposition to the Democratic plat
torn. The plain truth is that the silver

and it was put in by Mr.. Cleveland's
friends and by his approval, just as
the same friends tried to straddle the
tariff question, and would have sue

The purpose OF the silver straddle
was to harmonic all differences in
the ranks, and allow every Demo-

TRIBUTE OF RESPECT.
The Tobacco. Board Pas SEES Resolutions
on the Death of w. H. Crouch

AT a meeting of the Tobacco Board
of Trade the following preamble and
resolutions were adopted as a tribute
to w. II. Crouch:
Whereas, 1t has pleased our
Heavenly Father to remove from our
midst, by death, our esteemed friend
and associate in business, w. I'll.
Crouch, former vice-president of the
Tobacco Board of Trade, and while
we bow in humble submission to the
divine will, we can not but feel that
a vacancy has been created that can
not well be filled, and that we have
lost one of cur number, who was not
only an honest and sincere man in
the true acceptatiOn of the word, but
combined those Christian qualities
which constitute a true gentleman,
and which made for him friends OF
each and every member of this To.
bacco Board OF Trade; therefore
Resolved, That, as tribute of re-
spect for the memory of our deceased
friend and member, we attend the
funeral in body, and that the Ex-
changes sales-room be draped in
mourning for thirty days, and the
members wear the usual badge of
mourning for the same time.
Resolved, That these proceeding
be spread upon the minutes of the
Exchange, and copy be sent to the
family, and to the city newspapers
for publication. A true copy.

THE STRIKE SITUATION.
Chas. Collier Goes Up and Brings Out the
Louisville Route.

The Banner of last evening says
that the express messengers strike is
still on, but that vacancies have been
filled by non union men. Four Of
the union men, however, who struck
have withdrawn from the brother
hood and have put in applications for
their runs. Some of them, says the
Banner, will be reinstated
Express matter was received here
this morning by Chas. Collier going
to Louisville and bringing out the
run. This is good news for the PEG
pie of GAINESVILLE, and Mr.. Collier,
who has always shown business de.
votion to his employers, will have
the thanks of the business men of
the city for his action. - He is on the
regular run now between Memphis
and B)wling Green, and there is lit
tie doubt that he will hold his place.
1t has always seemed strange to the
outsider why man should quit his
work at one place because some fel.
low, two hundred miles distant,
wholly unknown to the striker, had
been "dischargcd for good and sutii-
cient reasons"

Congressman Breckenridge, of
Kentucky, has thrown a bombshell
into Blaine's reciprocity kite, attach
ed to the Mckinley bill, by reso-
luton to check the Presidents forth
coming proclamation against such
countries as have not entered into
reciprocity treaties, excluding them
from the privilege. The resolution
was offered, and objected to by Mr..
Burrows. Mr.. Breckenridge takes
the position that Congress can not
empower the President to levy taxes,
that the act is unconstitutional, and
a dangerous power in the hands of
the President. The question is ex-
citing much discussion.

dies or trying to interpret doubtful

pose"
Mr.. Cleveland, in his reference to
the political revolution of Nov, 1890,
and promises made the people, fails
to recognize the fact that the silver is.
sue entered as strongly into that
campaign as did the tariff, but it is
an undeniable fact that every Demo,
cratic Congressman from the South
and West, where the great majority
comes from, ran on free coinage
platform and stands pledged to that
issue. If Mr.. Cleveland does not
know this the members do, and
manifest it by their anxiety for such
legislation, and if they prove faith
less and recreant to this pledge will
not the people also hold them re.
sponsible?
Referring to the power of Jackson's
spirit, the old hero was a not d free
coinage Democrat, and can he doubt
that the spirit Of Jackson's Democ-
racy is still with the people, and that
it is that spirit which asserts itself
against him on account of his I'M
democratic silver letter? (for there
is nothing else); if so, he should con-
suit the history of Jackson's relations
with Mr.. Van Buren, and learn how
quickly the old hero withdrew his
support from Van Buren, for a SINH
lar otfense- his letter in opposition
to the annexation of Texas-and
strove to bring about the nomination
of James K. Polk.

Regrets Appropriate to the Season.

Ned Turnkey received a few days
ago an invitation to attend party
in Illinois, and this is what he wrote
in acknowledgment of the invite:
Please accept my deep regret,
Because couldn't go
But then it's far and very wet,
And the ground is white with snow.
And what is more, I'm very poor
As also is my pa
SO Al have to stay till another day
Before go SO far.
Now when to Illinois GO
I'll pay my party call
But you mustn't think me very slow,
If never call at all.
That boy is genius, if he doesn't
slip down; but while everybody else
is wearing ice creepers, it is danger
Gus for him to go so fast.

Santa Fe Sun.
On the Goth Of last April the AL
buquerque Citizen, which was then
recognized as an influential repub-
lican newspaper, but which has
degenerated into a mere organ of
Boss Catron, denounced the kid
mapping incident at Lamy in the
following fashion:
A subject of far more impor-
tance than any convention, and
which will be remembered years
after the Silver City convention
and its delegates are forgotten, is
that of the kidnapping and false
imprisonment of Jose Julio Vigil,
the delegate from Taos county.
The facts are briefly these: Taos
county is so far from Silver City
that at the county convention it
was determined TO send only one
delegate with the proxies of all
the others. This made the posi-
ton a very responsible one and
the leading republicans selected
Mr.. Vigil because of his high char
acter and standing, he being one
of the oldest and best citizens in
Taos county, who has held many
official positions and was a soldier
in the union army, and is now
about 73 years old. Mr.. Vigil
came to Santa Fe ON horseback
arriving on Tuesday, and wai

We find that both Hipolito Vigil
and Marcos Castillo ARE among the
most active members Of the Catron-
Conklin gang in this city, insult
ing strangers when they come into
town, personating deputy sherifrs,
and dragging reputable people to
the county jail without the color
of a warrant or the pretguse of n
complaint in the morning. Il
should be remembered that Catron
absolutely dominated the conven-
ton that nominated Conklin for
sheriff and Hipolito Vigil for cor
oner and that he Is tile inspiring
chief of the infamous gang that Is
now attempting TO terrorize the
voters of Santa Fe county in the
interest Of the C6tfon<Conklin-
Frost combine. Catron controlled
the republican convention at Sill.
yer City by kidnapping and false
ly imprisoning the delegation from
Taos county. The republicans
meekly submitted. Catr0n is now
employing the same methods and
the same tools to control the vo-
ters of Santa Fs county. Does
