The Western Liberal has dis
covered the reason why the Pres
dent appointed A. B. Fall judge
of this judicial district. 1t says
that the laboringmen's brother
hoods forwarded strong petitions
to Washington protesting against
the appointment of A. b. Fall as
United States attorney and that
the President needed the protests
and refused to appoint him to that
Office, but that the laboringmen
neglected to file protests against
the appointment of Mr.. Fall as
judge of this district and so the
President saw his way clear TO ap-
point him to that Office. The Ia
Dor unions ought to exercise a lit
tie more care in getting up their
protests against the appointment
of persons who are not agreeable
to them. They will probably
profit by their experience this
time and will know how to go
about getting politicalscalps by the
time the next President is elected.

The County is temporarily press
ed for funds owing 10 the miscalled
"Act for the relief of Taxpayers"
passed at the instigation of some
demagogues in the last Legislature.
This act put off the payment Of
taxes from January LIST last until
July LIST next, abating the interest
on all delinquent taxes paid be-
fore that date, and the natural
consequence is that the County is
out of the use Of its money for six
months and our people whom the
County owes have to suffer mean
while. The County commissioners
are of course in no way to blame
for this, but the opportunity was
too good for the enemies of good
government to overlook, and, under
the lead of the Enterprise, the
Deming correspondent Of the FL
Paso Times, the Headlight, ct ais,
they are furiously assaulting the
commissioners for the County's
temporary inability to pay it's cur
rent expenses in cash. Our pres
ent commissioners are upright,
earnest men, well known to the
people of Grant County, and are
doing their best to serve the peo-
pie under great disadvantages.
They themselves can no more get
cash from the County for the next
three months, even to pay their ex-
penses to come into town and at
tend to the public's affairs, than
can any one else. But all
this does not seem to prevent
the bitterest attacks on them from
personal enemies, and from those
who seek revenge because they
would not be cajoled or coerced
into prostituting their Office to
help those who are now fighting
them.

A. d. rALLAppOINTEp Judge.

The appointment of Albert b.
Fall, last week, to be judge of the
third judicial district court of this
Territory was something of a sur
prise to the residents of this part
of the Territory. 1t was wellknown
here that Mr.. Fall was an appli-
cant for the position of United
States District Attorney, and the
possibility that he might be APP
pointed judge had not been
thought of by anybody. The APP
pointment was undoubtedly the re-
suit of a compromise on the part
of the representative citizens OF
the Territory now in Washington.
The fact that Mr.. Fall resided in
the judicial district for which he
was appointed Judge appears to in
dictate that the President will APP
pointed residents of New Mexico
to offices in this Territory.
There is no denying the fact
that the selection of A. b. Fall as
Judge of this Judicial district was a
wise one. He is a man of energy
and determination and will be the
Judge of the court. He will not be
the tool of a few designing politi-
clans and, although he has been
one the most active democrats in
southern New Mexico, he will not
allow his Offices TO be used to sub
serve political ends. His APPOINT.
ment ought to please the people
of this county as he has done more
for the interests of the county thar
any other nonresident ofthe coun.

Some time since the Western
Liberal printed the following:
When Sheriff Laird took hisofice
he refused to reappoint johnson,
the foreman of the Lyons d Camp
bell cattle company, in the Pine
Oienega country, deputy sheriff.
He thought that johnson hada lit
tie too tough a record to serve un-
der him. He wanted no stock
thieves for deputies, even if they
they had served as deputies under
the preceding administration.
When Mr.. Lyons found that his
tough man could not be a deputy
sheriff he concluded that he had no
use for him, but was a little BASH
full about discharging him. Lyons
figured over the matter for awhile
and then discovered a safe way.
He called his man in the White
House, borrowed his six-shooter,
and when he had it safe in his own
hand gave johnson his money and
told him he had no more use for
him. We are glad to know that
Mr.. Lyons escaped with his life.
The Enterprise talks back this
way:
The foregoing s%currilous %efusion
is an unmitigated falsehood from
first to last and would be passed by
with the silent contempt which it
deserves, were it not for the great
wrong and injustice which it does
MI. Johnson and the annoyance it
might give him in the future if not
refuted. An Enterprise reporter
interviewed Sheriff Laird who said:
"Mr. Lyons never asked me to ap-
point Mr. johnson OF any one else,
nor did he even suggest any one
for deputy sheriff. So far as 1
appear in that article it is absolute-
ly untrue in word and intent; and
YOU can say SO IN the Enterprise
as coming from me-"
Last week the Liberal rubbed it
in like this:
The Enterprise, in language
that is not parliamentary, last week
came to the defense of johnson
who formerly served as foreman of
the Lyons & Campbell cattle COM
pany. The Enterprise says that
Sheriff Laird denies having said
that he refused to appoint Johnson
as deputy sheriff. Sheriff Laird
did positively state to the Liberal
that he had refused to appoint
johnson as deputy sheriff. He
told the Liberal many other things
in regard to both johnson and Ly-
ons that can be reported if neces-
sary. Whether the sheriff was
mistaken in what he told the Lib
eral, or in what is reported he told
the Enterprise, or whether the En-
terprise is mistaken in what was
told its reporter by Sheriff Lairdth
Liberal is at present unable TO dis
cover. As regards johnson, if he is
endeavoring to live a straight life
far be it from the Liberal to say OIL
do anything which would pain him
in the least. But when a man has
deserved the reputation which
Johnson bears and desires to live
it down he should not mar his re-
form by writing anonymous letters.

CURRENCY Is getting scarce in the
New York banks and the bankers
there seem to be very much wor-
ried at the prospect of having to
pay gold into the sub treasury
there for the reason that there is
not currency enough left in cur
c%ulation to meet the demands for
it. The attempt to force gold to a
premium has proved a miserable
failure since the interior banks
volunteered to come to the assis-
lance of the treasury. The gold
bugs will soon learn that the peo-
pie of the west and south are in
earnest about the silver question
and mean to have a free coinage
law within the next twelve months.

be foretold at this time but it seems
that unnecessary delay will be pre-
judicial to any plan of annexation.

CUT OFF THE FRAUDULENT PEN.
sTONs.


1t is rather amusing to see how
rapidly the republican newspapers
are changing froat in refernce to
pensions. Six months ago all the
republican newspapers in the
country were clamorng for larger
pension appropriations 80 hat all
the old soldiers could get pensions.
The republican press was the stead
fast friend Of every old soldier and
wanted him to get a pension wheth-
er he was deserving or not. That
was before election and oil the sol
der votes were wanted for Harri-
son and Reid. No newspaper in
the country was more persistent
in its demands for pensions than
the Globe-D Democrat, but now that
paper is democratic so far as pen
sion reform goes. 1t is preaching
good democratic doctrine. Here
is what it said ~editorially a few
days ago:
The new administration will
meet with no opposition in any sin
cere and practical attempt to purge
the pension roll of all names that
have been placed there on INSULT
cient evidence or under improper
circumstances. That is a legitimate
and commendable sort of reform;
and it is desirable to know just how
much truth and how much misre-
presentation there is in the abund-
ant talk about the perversion of the
law to wrong uses. Nobody desires
a dollar to be paid to a man unless
he legally deserves it. The law
specifies the causes for which PEN
sions may be granted, and it is
easy TO ascertain how many claims
have been allowed that should have
been rejected. But this task should
not be undertaken in a spirit of
hostility to the pensioners as a
class, or with a preconceived deter
mination to find pretexts for a
sweeping reduction of the list.
Where pensions have been granted
upon reasonable testimony and in
compliance with the intention of
the law, they should stand, regard
less of the question of expense.
The country can not afford to take
a backward step in a matter which
80 closely relates to its honors and
its reputation for patriotism and
generosity. There is nothing to be
said in defense or extenuation of
the act of procuring a pension by
dishonest means, and in all in
tame where this has happe ned the
pension should be stopped. 1t is
only demanded hat the process of
Investigation shall be fair aud un-
prejudiced, and the adverse judg-
ment shall not be rendered without
giving the pensioner ample OPP
portunity to vindicate his claim.
The fact that Mr.. Cleveland does
not fully sympethize with the in
%terests of the soldiers is well under
stood; and he should the refore, be
particularly careful to keep the
operations of his subordinates, and
of his party, on the pension pro-
blem within the lines of justice
prudece and impartiality.

GREsHAM's democratic sword is

GREsHAM's democratic sword is
a new one but its edge is keen.
Last week he smote off the official
head of a man who had been in
the state department for about
thirty years and who thought he
had a life position. The place
made vacant was given to a SOUTH
ern democrat. The republican
press is not questioning Gresham's
democracy quite as much as it was
a month ago.

The New Mexican is complain
ing that the mail service in the
Territory Is not good. The atten-
ton of Postmaster General Bissell
is called TO the fact that the lead
republican Newspaper in New Mex
leo is finding fault with the mail ser
vice. The only way to remedy the
evil is TO put in democratic post
masters aud postal clerks where
these places are held by republi-
cans. II is rather surprising that
the evidence of the ineficiency Of
the postal service should come from
a republican paper, but admissions
are always considered good evid-
ence and the admission Of the New
Mexican should be acted on at
once,

Col. ALBRIGHT is disappointed.
The Albuquerque Democrat of last
Saturday says, %editorially:
The President yesterday appoint
ed w. M. Eads, of Carrolton, Mo,
Governor of New Mexico. The
appointee was formerly a resident
eff Las Vegas, and was president of
the San Miguel Bank of that city.
On the death of his wife about a
year ago, Mr.. Eads returned to re-
side in Missouri. He has earned
a reputation as a good criminal
lawyer, and had the backing of
Senator Vest, of Missouri. The
appointment of an outsider for
chief executive of New Mexico is
the work of the rule-or-ruin trium-
%virate, Ferguson, Crist and Jo-
seph.
