Republican Defeat Certain if the Dem
ocrats and Third Partyites Merge.
WASHINGTON, March 1.-THE dispatch
from Kansas announcing a coalition be-
tween the democrats and the People sporty
in that state for the election next fall has
excited considerable interest at the capitol.
Representative Jerry Simpson said that be
did not know whether or not the statements
in the dispatch were true, but If they were
the coalition would not be confined to
Kansas alone but would extend to
Nebraska, the two DAkotas, Minnesota and
possibly Iowa. There is some doubt,
about Iowa, 1t is thought, chiefly
because the democrats fought so
strongly there that they might not want 60
enter into q combination. Mr.. Simpson said
that he thought the Peoples party and the
democrats together could carry Kansas by
10000, and they could also carry Nebraska,
the two Dakotas aud Minnesota. .Thss, he
said, would throw the election Of President
into the House of Representatives. He
added that be thought the Democrats might
lose one or two of the southern states.

The Clause Apt to Be Put to Test In
the Courts.
WASHINGTON, March 1.-THE Erenino
Star has this: SIT is possible that the Presi-
dents proclamation reimposing duties on
certain Imports from Venezuela, Hayti and
Colombia. viii lead again to a test OF the
validity of the reciprocity clause In the Nc
Kinley bill The proclamation opeus the
way for the direct question to be brought
be the policy of those who
are interested in discrediting the Mckinley
act TO avail themselves OF the opportunity.
Speaking of the proclamation to-day.
Representative Turner of Georgia, lawyer
member of the ways and means committee.
said: The restoration of the duties on
coffee and other commodities from Vene-
zuela, Hayti and Colombia will greatly dis
turb our trade with these countries.
and will operate great hardship
upon Americans engaged in that trade. The
question of the oonstitutionality of the law
under which the proclamation is Issued may
be tested in the courts.
NEW POINT.
"The question presented would be very diff
ferent from that recently decided by the
supreme court. The claim set up in this
recent case was that the whole bill
was rendered invalid by the presence
of this clause in the bill, bu. the validity
OF the clause itself was not tested. Now
any importer importing coffee from Vene-
zuele and being required TO pay a duty on
the import may contest the validity of this
levy Of duty imposed merely by an exec
utive proclamation and not applicable to
similar imports from other countries He
may take the matter into the courts and
carry 1t up to the supreme court aud get a
decision upon the direct question of the
right of congress to delegate its treaty
making power to the President"
ACTION SUSPENDED.
NEW YORK. March 1.-THE treasury de-
partment has notified the customs authori-
ties to suspend all action in regard to the

prosperous in all branches, with conser-
vative leaders in all lines OF commerce
and INDUSTRY very sanguine OF the future
Everywhere there are signs OF increased
confidence on the part Of capital. In the
east there is the greatest abundance OF
ready money. Capital has been very
SLOW in coming west, for obvious reasons,
the slump in farm mortgages, realty and
railroads OF year ago still staring it in
the face, yet it is coming, slowly but
surely, and the west to-day is growing
stronger in the estimation of the east
than it ever was. The coming year will
not be pregnant with booms, that day Is
passed, but steady, business like growth
is the inevitable, and we have no hest
fancy in saying that in this growth New
Mexico will by no means hold second
place in the wear to come.
