" as a pair of boOsIeds over a thank

of the message before as ignores the fact
that one party has virtually seized the

strength and is hanging on to II regard

fined his ideas of legal tender money in

ing the duty of good citizen who IS not
elected to seat in the legislature.

a Clear Distinction.

From the Topeka Journal
No man can be socialistic and auarch-
istic at the same time. Several editors
and newspaper writ=rs continually make
mistake on this point. Socialists are
striving for more law and anarchists
want no law at all. Frank DOster IS a
socialist and wants more laws 10 permit
the government 10 run the railroads, etc.
G. G. Clemens is an anarchist. and
doesn't want any laws at all; that's the
difference between anarchy and social
ism. As we seem to have considerable
of both in this state it is well 70 under
stand the distinction.

contains some special article on Nev
Mexico and its resources. The very best
thing the people of New Mexico, regard:
less of party, can possible do, is to give
the New MEXICAN in its several editions,
the daily, the weekly and the Spanish,
full and generous support. BY so doing,
they will help themselves and help this

The EXCLUSION ACT.

The twaddle being published in the
eastern papers and hurled from eastern
pulpits at poor and unoffending peo-
pie, concerning the alleged and grievoua
injustice done the gentle and mild Chi.
nese in the enforcement of the Geary OK.
clusion act, is simply untrue and very
rotten; this country has an absolute and
perfect right to restrict, not only Chinese,
but all immigration; it has an absolute
and perfect right to prescribe regula-
tions to be observed by immigrants and
aliens within its borders. 1t has an abb
solute and perfect right to protect its
citizens against undesirable Chinese and
other immigration.
AS far as the government of the Chi
nese empire doing this and that in retail
alton, that is more twaddle and rot. The
emperor of China cares less fer the
100000 Chinese laborers in this country,
than he does for ono single red joss stick
in Pekin joss house. As far as the
missionaries in China are concerned the
sooner they get back here and help con.
vert the many hundreds of thousands OF
heathens in this country. the better.
Let the law and the mandates of the
courts be enforced and deport the Chi
nese, without fear or favor, if they refuse
to obey the supreme law of this land
which should be obeyed by every inhab.
liant thereof, white, black, red or yellow

REAL ESTATE ASSESSMENTS IN SANTA FE
COUNTY.

The assessments for lands and real
estate as turned in by many tax payers in
this city and county, are too low, and the
county assessor should raise them; there
are plenty of instances where men put in
their landed possessions at scarcely any
value for taxable purposes; but when q
sale is to be made the price thereof is
found to be very high. The county as
SCISSOR and the board Of county commits
sioners should take this very important
matter up and increase the assessments
of taxes on lands and buildings wherever
proper and just and, from the NEW MEX
loans information, such a course will be
found proper and just in many, many
cases. The manner in which assessments
on real estate in this city and county have
been handled heretofore and for many
years past has not been what it should
have. A new and more equable system
must DO adopted and this can nUthappen
any too soon. 80.

Where to At0D In lhicagO.

The perplexing question which is every
day asked by people who desire to go to
Chicago to attend the Worlds fair is,
"Where are we going to stay when we get
there'" This is easily answered, and if
you will go to the ticket agent of the
Santa Fe, Mr.. W. M. Smith, he will tell
you.
Arrangements have been made for the
distribution by the Santa Fe company of
a pamphlet entitled "Homes for Visitors
to the Worlds Fair" This is reliable
pamphlet containing the rames and adj
dresses of about 5000 families who will
furnish accommodations to visitors from
May to October 81, 1898. The pamphlet
also contains sectional maps which will
enable the intending visitor to select any
quarter of the city that he would prefer.
Correspondence can then be carried on
and definite arrangements made 80 that
when visitors arrive IN Chicago they can
proceed at once to their quarters.
