THE POLITICAL STTUA ATTON.

While the presidential campaign is
unusually quiet there are strong indi-
cations that the voters are doing some
hard thinking. The business men of
the country will to large extent de-
eide what the outcome of the election
shall be and we doubt if the great ma
jority desire to exchange their pres
ent feeling of security for the uncer-
tainty in relation to tariff changes
which would follow Mr.. Cleveland's
election. The general situation is
very forcibly and intelligently sum-
med up by Col. John A. Cockerell,
formerly editor of the New York
Herald, who writes on the editorial
page of that paper as follows:
s'Mr. Cleveland's worshipful man
ayers now publicly admit that upon
the action of the Tammany Hall or
ganization in this city the presidency
once more hinges. IF Tammany con
tents itself with the simple party duty
of polling it's normal vote, Mr.. Cleve-
land has no chance to win in this
state. If it goes into the business of
colonizing and forcing votes through
its police and other machinery the re-
suit may be different Mr.. Croker
has pledges from Cleveland and he
has been permitted to practically walk
Off with the entire municip alitv He
has lived to see the men who scorn-
ed and derided and absolutely ours ID
his organization in Chicago begging in
front of his wigwam, and he knows
that two years hence the power which
he is invited to place in the hands of
Cleveland, if secured, will be used to
his destruction. He may not, under
all the circumstances, care to do more
than his plain party duty.
In the interior of the state the fol-
lowers of David B. Hill know that the
election Of Cleveland means that Hill
will be nonenity in the state; that
the Cleveland party is pledged to
make William R. Grace a United
States senator; that the state ma
chine now controlled by Murphy and
Hill and Sheehan will be wiped out,
for Cleveland, while never remember
ing favors, never forgets injuries. In
contesting his right to third nomin-
alton of the presidency the Hill fac
ton forfeited all its rights in his esti-
nation. If lifted to power, his dull,
malignant hatred will be felt as it was
felt at Syracuse and Chicago. Mr.
Hill can not control his partisans nor
could he deliver them to Cleveland if
he SO desired.
"This is the democratic siuation in
this city and state. On the republic
an side there is harmony, and if there
is an apparent lack Of enthusiasm
there is determination. The repub-
ican candidate and his record in the
White House are unassailable, and the
democratic effort to demonstrate that
the republican system of protection is
a failure in the face of prosperity
such as the country has never known
is not meeting with success. Calvin
S. Brice says that he expended a mil
lion of dollars in this state in 1888 in
the interest of Cleveland, and yet he
failed to carry it. He had the federal
patronage, a united rarty and the rec
ord of his alleged beautiful reform
on his side then. What
then? If it's wall Of poverty is TO be de- /
pended on it lacks at least onehalf of /
the million dollars, and it certainly
lacks unity and patronage

is little better to-day than it was so
years ago. We labor along over rough

CONGRESS-
At last Takes Action

\ bin has been introduced at Wash
ing'on requiring all baking powders
containing alum and ammonia to be 50
labeled. THIS is a step in the right
direction, and has been long fore.
shadowed by the action OF State Legs
latures, Boards of Health, Food Gem
missieners, etc. in this matter. The
bill atterds needed protection TO the
public, for the evidence as to the in.
furious effects of alum aud ammonia
Is very heavy; bnt it Will nevertheless
be fought bitterly by the manufaet-
urers whom II affects who are accus-
toned 10 sell their goods rs "pure
Cream of Tartar absolutely pure
etc.
The bill is something needed. Ii a
maker uses Il drug in his powder the
name of which he does not want to
have printed on his label, it is prima
tacie evidence that there is something
wrong We hope the subject will be
vigorously prosecuted ali over the
country, not only as regards baking
powder but also all other food adulter-
ations.
This bill may incidentally benefit
the makers Of pure articles, but if it
should, this is only an additional
point in its favor.

fishes the following quotations, which
will be Of interest TO our miners.
The outlook for silver is more dis
couraging than ever and although 90lf
is pretty low it may look high to us
before long. Speculative trading has
been light and the absence of both
governmental and foreign demand has
made the week blue indeed.
The imports during the week ending
January 23d were Sl2l196, nearly all
gold
The exports were $653.9O5, mostly
silver,
Copper. is rather duh and easy Just
aow, nominal figures being II cents
for Luke, but actual sales are made at
a Slight concession. Casting brands
are 10ll a 10lse. Foreign markets
are generally easier in tone, and prices
show a slight decline.
The lead demand is light ana al
though sellers are reasonably firm the
production IS large, aud if prices hold
their OWE for the present they will be
doing all that can be expected.
Shipments of gold and bullion by
express from Silver City, N. NJ, dur
ing 1891 amounted TO $2n,414. The
value Of the metal production of
Grant county is stated by the Sentinel
to have been S1,250,041. This includes
gold, silver, lead, copper, zinc and
iron.

The HOSPITAL.

The Board of County COMMISSIONERS
at their last meeting decided to pur-
chase the building formerly used as a
boarding house at the Mt. Cory mill
for hospital and poor house, pro-
vided that the owners of the property
would accept the price Offered and
give a good deed to the house aud
ground. The purchase also includes a
small cottage in the rear of the board
ing house. 1t is the intention of the
Board, after the title is secured, to have
the buildings placed in such condition
as to be suitable for hospital and poor
house purposes. There Is large
piece OF good land, on which vege,a-
bles, etc, can be grown; also a large
peach orchard. The indigents and
paupers could put in their spare time
doing light garden work, they would
be away from town temptation, and
would no doubt be much benefited by
the change.
