Foot pads are holding up citizens very
frequently on the public streets.
Col. J.. W, Fleming, of Silver City,
passed Trough en- route for Phoenix, A.
T., where he is interested in several large
enterprises.
The schedule of both Santa Fe and
Southern Pacific Railroad companies has
played aminor part in the arrival of trains
here lately. All trains have been late for
several days past.
George Townsend, of the firm of Huss
& Townsend, contractors of the Deming-
Mexico railroad south, has arrived here,
and is now investigating the arrange
ments for the early resumption of work.
Mr.. Townsend is thoroughly confident
that the road will be built, and that at
once.
The stage which runs from Florida
station up to Cooks Peak mining camp
became uncomfortable owing to the fail
ure of the brakes to act properly while
the descent of steep grade was being
made. The horses took fright and ran a
considerable distance, when the team up
set. One of the horses was instantly
killed and all were severely bruised and
cut. The stage was badly broken. The
driver was thrown to the ground by the
conclusion and sustained a fracture of the
collar bone, besides cuts and bruises.
Several passengers, anticipating trouble,
had left the stage and walked down the
grade, thus escaping injury.
The weather for the past few days has
been as cold as ever known in the history
of this section. In the mountains snow
has fallen to the depth of several inches,
and the stretch of country between the
Sapelo and Georgetown affords as fine
sleighing as one could desire--were the
sleighs only obtainable. Snow even went
so far as to fall on the plains this mora
ing, an event which occurs about once
year. Several of the old timers are free
to express the opinion that the existing
cold snap beats anything in their ex-
perience.

1t is not an Issue.
From the Eldorado Republican.

The Topeka Capital says the young Republi-
cans or that city favor a prohibition plank in
do Republican
Is it also for nominating a resubmissionist
for goyernor?-Freeman VIM
Resubmission is not an issue in Kansas. and
cannot be made one. except so far as it is con-
nected with the calling of constitutional
convention.
The last legislature provided that the people
of Kansas should vote. next November, on
whether or not we should have new constitu-
ton; and at that election it Will be determined
whether or not the people shall be permitted to
again vote on prohibition.
The editor of the Freeman Vim well knows
that prohibition has been, and Is, the fixed pol
icy of this state; and he also knows that be-
cause of the vote to be had upon the calling of
a constitutional convention there is not, and
connot be, direct issue made for or against
resubmission.
And besides ali this. the Republican party.
having adopted prohibition, il is not going TO
get up a row over IL this year. The Republi-
cans put 1t in the constitution. and upon the
statutes, and the wise thing to do is to let il
alone, except as il becomes necessary to amend
the law from time To time. To make it more
effective. Political prohibition is not in it this
year. We are all Republicans and as Republi-
cans we all favor the enforcement of the laws,
just as we find them.
A mans loyalty 20 the Republican party, his
honesty, integrity and capability are the only
tests as to his availability as a Republican
candidate.
The man who will be nominated for governor
by the Republicans of Kansas, at the coming
state convention. will not only subscribe 10 an
oath to enforce all the laws, but he will do it
promptly and cheerfully, be he a Prohibition
ist or reSubmissionist He will take the oath
and obey it to the letter, be he farmer, lawyer.
doctor, preacher or editor.
The Republican party does not make re-
igious belief, occupation, profession or indi-
vidual opinion political test.
1t is a loyal party, patriotic party, and the
rule of its life has been to require of its polti-
cal officials tn, vigorous enforcement of all
the laws; and no Republican official has ever
hesitated a moment in obeying this mandate;
aud any suggestion that any man who loves
his party and his state will attempt TO do
otherwise, is unkind as well as unfairtoa large

remain Republicans to the end, if permitted

There appears to be fresh and con-
certed movement among the anarchistic
element throughout Europe. Reports
from almost every country on the con-
tinent tell of attempts upon the lives of
public officials. Despite the rigorous
laws and their vigorous enforcement
against the troublers of the peace and
safety of the ruling classes, the troubles
and hazards increase. The conditions
there present serious problem. The
prosecution of offenders seems TO make
them more determined and adds to their
numbers, and yet, if the prosecution
should be relaxed and the close surveil-
lance of the movements and plans of the
conspirators were withdrawn, the vi c.
iously inclined would no doubt take ad-
vantage of it and inaugurate reign of
terror. Evidently the mission of the
church has not yet been accomplished
on the earth.

The Man and Not the Paper

FROM the Burton Graphic.
There is hardly newspaper in the state
which has not had more or less to say regard
ing the candidacy of Colonel Marsh Murdoch
for governor of Kansas. Different opinions
have been expressed by different political
organs, nearly all of which the colonel has re-
published in his EAGLE, but among all their
criticisms we have not noticed one rejecting
oE his ability. to care for the duties of the
office, and the principle objection to his nomi-
nation is the stand he took on the resub-
mission question during the time when that
was the all absorbing topic. He is as all who
know him personally is aware, one of the most
fearless men in the state, and if he is ever gov
ernOr of this great state, which none can say
ought but good things, he will do what he
thinks is best for the state, regardless of the
opinion OF any person or party. Therefore he
has been very backward about expressing him
self as a candidate. and when he does. we hope
he will announce his personal standpoint on
resubmission aswell as other questions, to let
the people have a chance to run Marsh Muir
dock and not the EAGLE, which is always,
quite correctly, too, for Wichita, for office.

The farmers of Georgia are unsues-
tlonably the most enterprising of any in
the southern states. They are the first
to take steps towards lessening the cotton
area with a view to relieving the dis
tress incident to overproduction of the
single crop. cotton. To do this the
Georgia farmers are planning for a
diversity of crops, with strong inclina-
ton to vegetables and fruits. In some
portions of the state that have conven-
lent market facilities the system of
truck farming, as it is popularity known
down there, has been in vogue for several
years and has proven very remunera-
tive. In sections that have not these
facilities attention will be given to rails
ing more grain and live stock. 1t is
calculated that enough provision crops
will be raised this year to supply the
states demands. Many planters, how
ever, will be forced to stick to cotton,
being compelled to have advances of
money and provision with which to pro-
duce crop, and cotton being the only
crop upon which they can secure such
assistance.

The little decoy duck set afloat by
Manager Morris of the lottery concern,
in the shape of declination of the pro-
posed charter extension, has not had the
desired effect of uniting the warning
factions in the Louisiana Democracy, as
was hoped, and now Governor McEnery,
the candidate for governor put up by
the straight" wing, offers to withdraw
as a candidate in the interest of har-
mony. SO far the anti-lottery wing of
the party have refused all overtures

The ruinously low price of cotton now
and for sometime past Is accounted for
by large operator and one who is pre-
sumed to know, upon the idea that spec
ulation in the staple has ceased TO a con-
siderable extent. If that is true the
Memphis Cotton Exchange are a set of
chumps to be protesting against the pass
age, by congress, of any of the pending
anti-option measures. The cause as
signed by the operator quoted above may
be true, in part at least, but if so the
speculation has ceased because the over
production of the staple so reduced the
margin Of profits that the traders were
forced into other fields. The Memphis
people are evidently hoping for a much
less yield of cotton this year. which will
open the way for return vi profitable
speculation,

If Cleveland is not to be the candidate.
says the Chicago Times, Gov. Boies of
Iowa ought TO be. The Times idea is
that, having been elected governor of
Iowa twice, Boies could carry Iowa for
the Democratic party for president The
Times also no doubt has in mind the idea
that having been Republican. Boles
could lead hosts of that party into the
Democratic camp. But the Times for
gets that Boies' successes in Iowa were
the results of local issues that can have
no bearing or effect upon the national
campaign.

However we are Solid for Murdoch.

We have always said that when the time
came that the western counties, which were so
long kept from voting voice in our state leg
islature, had legal right TO vote in our law
making council, through their representatives
the east would not be able to find way by
which she could be good enough to US. We.
however, have been little disappointed in
this respect, for now catch them trying to
play confidence game on u.s. The whole east
has fiocked together in support of VI. NJ. Muir
dock, of Wichita, for governor and say in one
voice, 1.-The west should be recognized by Civ
ing to her the gubernatorial honor" Now by
reference to a state map it will be easily OBJ
served that Wichita is situated considerably
east of the central division of the state, but
those fellows think to fool us by crediting him
to the west, and imagine we will know no bet
ter because Wichita is in the Seventh congress
sional district. which extends over the entire
southwest portion of the state. Not much,
gentlemen; you can't fool us that way. Mr..
Murdoch can be counted as a south-central
candidate, but as a western, never. However,
notwithstanding this fact. the west will give
him her solid support, for he is as far west as
it can be hoped TO secure an election at the
present time.

The 'hominy" between the Cleveland
and Hill factions in the Democratic party
has already reached the state of mash
that calls forth such felicitating titles for
each other as political refugees, thugs,
stink-pots, etc. With the promise of
such companionship as that and their
refining and elevating influence, it would
not be surprising if the masses of the
people, regardless of past party affilia-
lions, should rush to the Democracy

From the Topeaa Capital.
Now that the free traders in Congress
have agreed upon q bill reducing the
tariff on wool it is 20 be hoped that they
will crafty the natural curiosity of the
people by stating their reasons for intro
duclng the proposed measure. 1t is GER
tain that Mr. Springer and his commit
tee are not animated by a patriotic de-
sire to assist the struggling sheep-grower
for their bill is designed and intended so
to reduce duties on wool that foreign raw
material for the manufacture of W oolen
goods NAV compete with the home pro-
duct 1t Is certain also that the commit
tee is not influenced by the manufacture
ers. for recent memorial from these
parties strongly urges upon congress the
wisdom of dropping the tariff agitation
and favoring the WOODEN lnanufac-
turer and other industries with
a period OF rest and Sc
curity from the injury to business
which accompanies tariff changes These
memorialists say that business has &C
commodated itself to the new law and
they earnestly pray 10 be saved from an
other general outbreak now that a truce
has been made among the various inter.
ests. There Is no popular demand for a
change IN the tariff. Not only are the
wool growers and woolen manufacturers
satisfied with the present arraneem ent,
but there : not an industry asking for
an amendment Of a schedule. It Is not
at all impossible. ia fact II Is quite char
