 stand the strain of managing the New York street railway trust, but when it came to undertaking the contract of getting the presidential nomination for Grover, he threw up the sponge. He will go to Flu rope for long rest, and Grover can do likewise, after the Chicago con- vention of his party.
 NIT. Cleveland was fortunate in getting into Rhode Island before the election. In his great speech at Providence he said: "I have not come to point the way to consola- ton in case of your defeat, but 1 have come to share the enthusiasm which presages victory" The re- marks would not have been applica- ble after the election.
 As between Grover Cleveland and Victoria Woodruff, as presidential candidates, the democracy would find it difficult to make a choice. Grover is pronounced ally of Eng land on the question of free trade and Vic. has just returned from a residence in Merry Old England. A compromise might be effected whereby the ticket would read Cleveland and Woodruff that would prove satisfactory to all.
 The JouRSAI-MrNER takes the floor to place in nomination a county Worlds Fair commissioner as pro- vided for by law, and recent procla- nation of Governor Murphy asking for recommendation of names from the different counties for appoint ment Believing that no one can do more effective work in this position than newspaper man, and as we are | already holding down a government i position by appointment it affords l us pleasure to place in nomination | E. \. Rogers, of our contemporarv the Courier. MT. Rogers has lived | in Yayapai county a dozen or mora years and is thoroughly familiar with all the details of our resources We believe that his nomination, as the position is not partisan one, will meet with the hearty endorse ment for the position.
 The JouRNAL-MNER congratulates Hon. N. O. Murphy on his appoint ment as governor of Arizona vice Hon. J. \. Irwin, resigned. During most of the tune for the past two years, Secretary Murphy has filled the position as acting governor, and has performed the duties so faith fully, that the administration in Washington. in recognition thereof. has appointed him to the position. While extending congratulations to 1 .he new governor, the territory is i Sn reality more to be congratulated | than he. As secretary, and as act ing governor, Mir. Murphy displayed | a zeal and fidelity, coupled with | good. sound judgment and discre- ton. in the discharge of his official | duties that is rarely found in public officials. That such a gentleman | has been chosen as the chief execu- tive of the territory is certainly matter of congratulation.

EDITORIAL NOTES.

The Wyoming war news are rather exciting.
 Hill voted with the silver men re- gently in the senate.
 Earthquakes are still reported shaking up various portions of Cali fornia.
 A Washington telegram says that Governor Irwin, of this territory, has resigned on account of his extensive private interests east.
 Phenix has petrified man on ex- hibition. The territorial demo- cratic convention ought to elect him as delegate to Chicago.
 Pattison's trolley has slipped of the presidential wire, and his friends are trying to replace the lost power with storage battery.
 No wonder Ravochal is an anarch- ist. The police have discovered that his grand father, great grand father, and great, great grand father were all hanged.
 Phenix papers are booming E. B. Kirkland for the position of secre- tary of the territory. Mir. Kirkland has been private secretary to Secre- t ary Murphy for about two years.
 Prof. Samuel A. King, an aeronaut known to the writer, several years ago, in San Francisco, is now nego- tiating for money in Philadelphia to construct balloon in which to cross the Atlantic ocean.
 The Albuquerque Democrat la ments the fact that politics can not be eliminated from the management of the New Mexico penitentiary. Wonder if the Democrat ever saw a penitentiary in which politics were eliminated.
 A recent telegram from Washing ton states that Senator Hill has lost his power of attraction for his fel- low democrats. Hill evidently looks larger when viewed from a distance than he does when brought face to face with him.
 The New York Times has discoy- cred that "there were surprising gains made by democrats in Rhode Island" It takes a mugwump to discover such things. The Times neglects to tell its readers how long it would take to elect president with such surprising gains. ."-Ex.
 Our contemporary contains a teie- gram.stating that the towns Of Dix on, Winters and vdcaville, Cali fornia, ~ore entirely destroyed by an earthquake recently. The report is probably exaggerated. At least it is to be hoped that the damage is not as serious as indicated.
 Judge Kibbey applied for leave to go to Washington, to refute the charges preferred against him by Abram Humphries, but was notified that his presence was not necessary. It would seem from this that the authorities there did not take much stock in the charges.

Mr.. Catron's persistent effort and
vote.
The poll tax clause of that
amendment as finally passed, is as
follows:
SIC. 4. That It shall be illegal Tor any
person TO vote or attempt to vote at any
election who has not paid bis poll tax
for the current year, aud said payment
must Be made, in case Of = general elec.
tion, At least sixty days previous to such
election.
The utter folly, not to charac-
terize it by . h&rsher term, of
the republican press in lts brsgen
assertion that the democrats are
responsible for the mischievous
provision requiring the payment
of the poll tax sixty days before
election, thus becomes apparent
and hSgrsnt. This record 6xss
that responsibility where it be-
longs, upon the man the republic
can party has elected fe. its most
conspicuous standard bearer in
New Mexico. .. .. Having been de-
fested in his effort to incorporate
that provision upon the original
school bill, he sggravates his off
ense and adds to his responsibility
therefor by introducing . Subse-
quent And HmendGtorY bill CON
tsining that provision. As Intro
duced it contained practically moth
ing else that he wanted, that being
apparently his sole purpose. The
scope OF the original bill was ma
terially enlarged and the occasion
taken advantage of TO make much
needed amendments in other re-
spects.
1t is we'll enough to say here
that the friends Of the public
school were in . measure forced
to adopt that feature Of the amen
datory bill in order TO insure the
adoption of needed amendments
to the original bill, a. it was APP
parent that the opposition to the
public school was OF that character
which made this concession neces-
sary to it's passage through the re-
publican council.

For some time past a wool CONF
mission house Of Philadelphia,
Justice, Bateman & Co., have been
sending out weekly q document
purporting to be a quotation Of
wool prices in that market, but
which is really q campaign docu-
ment. The circular of Augest 20,
1892, gives . table showing COM
parative price of the same grade
of wool in London and in the
United States since 1868, the high
tariff on wool having been enacted
in 1867. This table shows that
upon an average the American
wool during the past twenty-five
years sold 81 per cent higher than
the same grade Of Australian wool
in London. To show the utter un-
reliability Of this table we only
need refer TO the fact that Amer
icEn prices between 1868 and 1873,
before specie payment was re-
sumed in this country, are given in
American currency, then depre-
ciated from 33 per cent down to par
when specie payment was re-
sumed. For instance, in June,
1868, the currency price of Ohio
medium washed wool in the
United States was 60 cents q
pound, while the gold price was
only 40 cents q pound, showing =
depreciation Of one third, and even
in December, 1875, the depreciation
was IL per cent. No ststistician
desiring to afford correct informa-
ton will base comparisons upon
currency prices in this country
and gold prices in Europe during
that tine.-Stock Grower.

THE SUPERVISORS.

Routine Proceedings at tho Boards
Meeting Yesterday.
The bond and contract of Walker and
Mclean, the successful bidders for sup
plying the county hospital farm with
meat for the ensuing year, were ap-
proved yesterday by the board OF super
visors.
The petition of Rev. Joaquin Bott of
San Gabriel for permission to move his
fence into the highway was considered,
and the board decided that it could not
grant his petition.
Several deeds for rights of way for
roads we're presented and accepted.
The application of @. and F. j. Ganahl
for wharf franchise at San Pedro was
received, and the hearing set tor Janu-
ary 9TH.
It was ordered that bids be received
until January 18th for furnishing gro
ceries for the ensuing year for the county
farm.

ant Rowland should be frst sold unless
the conveyance to the San Ber-
nardino and Los Angeles r IL
way company was, as urged
by said defendant, made without con-
sideration. 1 do not think this conten-
tion supported. The deed recites that
the grant was made upon consideration
of 81. That this was not in fact paid
does not make the deed deed of gift,
or the grantee volunteer. An inabili-
ty to pay the sum specified was thereby
created, and that would constitute
valuable consideration. Moreover, l
am of opinion that the conditions OF the
deed, i. g., to lay the track and construct
"their principal depot for the Pomona
section OF the country" at a certain
point, would constitute q valuable con-
and would prevent the
grantee from beinglregarded as volun-
teer as against the grantor, or his sub.
sequent grantees with notice. l think
the usual rule should be followed and
the land sold in the inverse order OF it's
Decree is ordered accordingly.

THAT LAND GRANT DECISION.
Tho Matter as 1t Stands at the Local
Land Office.

The Matter as 1t Stands at the Local
Land Office.
Capt. W. H. Seamane, register OF the
land office, has received letter from
James Madden, the land agent of the
Southern Pacific company, in reference
to the recent decision of the supreme
court concerning the lands in dispute
between the company and the govern
ment, in which he says:
"The suit just decided involved only
1912 acres of the company's lands in
township north, ranges 4, 8 and 8
west, and north, range IL west, s.
B. M. I have not yet seen the full text
of the decision, and do not know how it
affects the company's interests. The
railway company intends to prees the
suit regarding the remainder of the land
covered by the overlap of the Southern
Pacific railroad and Atlantic and Pacific
railroad grants, and it is in hopes that
when the entire case is presented the
supreme court will modify its views.
This case, No. 1874, will probably come
up in the United States circuit court, in
Los Angeles, in February next.
The register of the land office is
acting under the following instruc-
tions received from M. M. Rose,
United States assistant land commits
sioner at Washington:
Continue the suspension of action on
applications for lands within the over
lapping limits of Southern Pacific rail-
road and Atlantic and Pacific railroad
until officially advised of the determine
ton of motion for review of department
al decision relating thereto, in Vol. 6,
L. D., page S16, still pending before the
The decision in question is one rem
dered by Secretary Villas to Commits
sioner Stockslager, June %, 1888, which
is exactly in line with the recent su-
preme court judgment. 1t is very prob
able that Secretary Noble will decide the
motion sustaining Secretary Vilas's de-
cision, and that no conflict will result
between the department of the interior
and the department of justice.

YESTERDAY IN THE COURTS,
"A Jury Finds Peterson Guilty
in Short Order.
Judge Clark Decides Very Interest
ing Case.
The Supreme Court Decides San
Diego Case-Two New Indict-
ments-New Cases and
Court Notes.

Charles Peterson was tried before
Judge Smith yesterday on charge OF
receiving stolen property, knowing it to
be stolen. The whole trial lasted about
An hour, the young man being found
guilty by the jury.
The testimony showed that Peterson
about two months ago went into one of
L. B. Cohn's pawn shops on Main street
and offered revolver for sale. He said
he had owned 1t for long time, and
that he was sheep herder.
The pawnbroker and his son, A. B.
Cohn, examined the revolver and saw
that it was new one which looked as
though it had never been shot. Young
Cohn then said he believed it was one of
their revolvers, and Peterson began to
stammer. Finally he said the revolver
was given to him by boy named Joe
Bellisle, and pointed out the boy where
he stood across the street. Officer Con-
ley was called and both were arrested.
It then tranepired that shortly before
this time Bellisle had knocked hole in
the show window in front of another of
Cohn's pawn shops. and stolen about a
dozen revolvers which were in his reach.
He was sent to the Whittier reform
school, where he is at present, and Pc
terson was held for trial.
Upon the trial yesterday deposition
from Bellisle was read, in which he
stated that he stole the revolver in ques-
tion and gave it to the defendant to sell
for him, telling him where he had OBJ
tanned it.
No evidence was put in by the defense,
even the defendant not going on the
stand. The jury WAS out only few
minutes when they returned with ver-
dict OF guilty. The form of this verdict
was that the jury found the defendant
''guilty of receiving stolen property"
and then it stopped.
Hugh j. Crawford, Peterson's attor-
ney, claims that by the omission of the
words knowing it to be stolen" the
verdict will not stand. The court fixed
Januafy 4th for the sentence of the de-
fendant.

SUPREME COURT DECISION.
Judgment in . San Diego Attachment
Case Affirmed.

Judgment in . San Diego Attachment
Case Affirmed.
An opinion was received by Deputy
Supreme Court Clerk Ashmore yester-
day in the case of Kennedy, appellant,
vs.. The California Savings Bank ct al.
It was an appeal from an order dissolv-
ing an attachment. The action was
upon certificates of deposit, issued to
plaintiff by the defendant, the Califor-
MIA Savings bank, corporation, in
which the other defendants were stock
holders, and the relief demanded was
for q judgment for the amount OF money
represented by the certificates, and
against each of the defendants for the
proportionate part thereof, for which he
is liable as stockholder. The motion
to dissolve the attachment was made by
the defendant Havermale alone, and
was upon the grounds, first, that the
action was upon statutory liability,
and not upon q contract; second, that
the writ of attachment in its statement
of plaintiffs demand against him was
not in conformity to the complaint.
After quite long discussion of these
points the court affirms the judgment of
the superior court dissolving the attach
ment upon the second ground stated in
the motion of the defendant.
