armed with % calibre rifles. When
the party reached the happy hunting
grounds, and the shooting commenced
their male escorts unceremoniously
and ungallantly took refuge under the
wagon. They finally ventured out
however and did good service in gath

when first handling gun q woman

to look down the muzzle to see if it
loaded, she will with 30 days prac-

pleasure of the day. One of the fair

Lest Wednesday evening, the 9th
inst, was the twelfth anniversary of
the wedding of Mr.. and Mrs. J. W.
kriger OF this city. Desiring to sur
prise them a number of their friends
entered into thepleasant conspiracy of
decoying them away from their home
in the early part of the evening, and
on their return to be in possession
and spend the remainder of the even
ing in a pleasant social manner. 1t
worked to charm, and when about
s o'clock Mr.. and Mrs. Knger opened
the door of their home the look of
surprise that came over their counte-
nance was pleasant to behold They
were made the guests of the evening,
aud Judge Heaton, who twelve years
before, had performed the marriage
ceremony that made them husband
and wife, in few appropriate re-
marks reminded them of the occa-
sion and presented them with some
appropriate gifts that had been Sc
lected by their friends. At midnight
the gathering broke up, the friends
wishing their guests many happy re-
tm ms of the anniversary, and every
one carrying away the remem
brance of very pleasant social time

HOW IT ENDED.

As might have been expected the
 Lehigh Valley strike has terminated in
 a most 1nglorious fzzle. It is difficult
 at this time, when opportunities to
 work are at premium, to realize the
 senselessness which ins pired the strike. | Within twelve hours the company had
 as many men as it needed. It is true
 that many were inexperienced, their
 work was hampered by strikers and
 there were the consequent and usual disasters and losses, which the con- pany could afford much more easily than one of the strikers could afford the loss of one days wages.
 It IS all over now, and what has been gained? Only this: that the strikers may be re-employed without prejudice when openings occur; that the time of the re-employed men may be so divided among them that they shall suffer as little as possible, and that they may be subject to promotion in order of sen- lorlty, which must begin to count from the time of their re-employment. That IS, that they may go back into the ser wee of the company on precisely the same terms as new men, And what has been gained? In the first place. that concession so dear to the heart of the average striker, promise that his grievance be considered, though the consideration by no means implies that 1t will be favorably acted upon.
 Not a thing else. He goes back. if he can get back, with the that he has lost three valuable weeks work at the beginning of winter; that perhaps 'he loss ot his job is permanent, that he 1as been fooled and duped by the lead 'r5 ot the organization which had un. iertaken to right his wrongs, even if it became necessary to starye him while he fighting was going on. 4 labor eader who would order strike under uch circumstances ought to De amana- )le to laws against crime.

THE YOUTH of Phoenix has risen as one boy and one girl against the propo-
 sition of Prof. Wollam to mutilate the
 arithmetics by cutting out the answers
 to the problems. The solicitude of the
 average schoolhoy for the care of his
 books is proverbal. Whoever heard of schoolbook, dirty, dog's-eared and
 torn? When at last schoolbooks have
 become attenuated. has it not been
 held that the attenuation is the natural result ot long and prodiglous use, the symbol of day and days of concentrated study and barrels and barrels of mid night oil? Gut upon the proposition to mutilate the schoolbooks, whose care is the pride of the schoolboy's heart. But yelled beneath the professors or der is more fendish purpose, an assault upon the basic principles of mathematical education. Cut out the answer to @ difficult problem, and where Is the boy?

OUR BEST CHANGE,

The following recent dispatch from
 Washington furnishes food for hope ot
 the early admission of the territories ot
 Arizona. New Mexico and Utah. The reasons given for the hope appear sound. Political necessity may compel justice, which otherwise would come
 with leaden step:
 The result of the recent elections have been to bring joy to at least one section of the Dem ocratic party The territories which have been knocking for admission to the Union some years now feel cheered by the outlook. Dem- ocratic delegations fro n Arizona, New Mexico and Utah are expected to arrive in the city inn medlately after the opening of the session to urge upon the party in congress the necessity of prompt action cD measures confer1inG state hood upon the territories. It seems an inex- oraole law that political events must move in cyclones, and the demoralization of the party 1nrecent elections has warned the older lead CTS of general defeat next year, and the turn Ing over of the house of representatives to a Republican majority is among the possibilities then.
 Measures for the admission of New Mexico. Arlzonasand Utah are now pending in congress, and all are to be pressed to vote without de- lay. The delegates from all these territories are now Democrats, and it is confidently as- serted by the Democrats of these prospective states that there is no doubt that the United states senators and congressman to be elected Tn the new states will be of the same political faith, thus materially assisting to maintain the supremacy of Democracy in congress, as well as furnish significant quota of Democratic cleo toral votes to the electoral college in the next presidential contest.
 The house committee on territories has shown an unprecedented punctuality in dis posing Of these measures. Bills for the admis- sion ot New Mexico, Arizona and Utah have all been reported fayorably and will come up early for consideration in the house. Senator Eau lkner, chairman of the senate committee on territories, says prompt action will be taken on the statehood bills by his committee.
 The report urging the admission of Arizona IS chiefly devoted to reviewing the resources of the territory, and declaring that the days of

THAT WOOL CONVENTION AGAIN,

Again, referring to the alleged petition
from Colorado and New Mexico wool
growers praying Gov. Waite to call an
interstate convention of wool growers to
inveigh against any change in the pres
ent tariff on foreign woods, the New MEX.
loan feels that it speaks the sentiments
of four-fifths of the wool growers of this
territory when it asserts that they do not
care to have any connection with the pro
posed convention.
The demand for such a convention
comes chiefly from Trinidad, Colo, where
resides the president of local organiza.
ton known as the Southern Colorado and
Northern New Mexico Wool Growers
association. This gentleman may be
ever so sincere in his efforts to keep the
existing tariff intact, and in this matter
we are with him most heartily, but OBJ
lection to his plan is made because we
believe it good policy for New Mexicans
to attend strictly to their own affairs and
decline to man to seek any favors or
demand any action of congress under
color of authority conferred by the pres
ent governor of Colorado. He is known
far and wide as rattle Drained fossil,
whose wild-eyed schemes have brought,
simply, disgrace upon Colorado's fair
name, and we feel quite sure that it will
prove best for New Mexicans to have
nothing to do with him or his kind.

WHAT THE WILSON BILL IS DOING.

The New York Herald is free trade
paper; it's editorial utterances favor free
trade. But the following from another
page Of the Herald of last Sunday shows
what free trade agitation has already
done for the laboring men of New York:
"Poverty and nakedness in New York
are SO widespread and appalling this win
ter that the Herald has organized free
clothing fund for men, women and chill
dren, and the whole public is invited to
join in movement to check suffering
that is too vast to be dealt with by ordl-
nary means.
"This is crisis. No such misery and
ruin have been known in the metro polls
for many years.
every man or woman who has heart
to pity and hand to give should do some
thing to save the poor of New York
from the peril that threatens to over
whelm them.
at is not time to boast of charity and
to waste time in mere expressions OF SYM
pathy. 1t is time to give, give, give, to
make those who are without money and
without clothing feel that they are not
utterly lost in the richest city of America,
that the unfortunate will not be forsaken
and that those who have preached of the
privileges of wealth realize that the great.
est privilege of wealth is to relieve dis
tress."
Should the Wilson bill pass, the condi-
ton of the laboring men and their fam
lilies In the large cities of the country will
simply be appalling and awful.

THE COMPLIMENTS Of THE SEASON.

Since that first Christmas night, nearly
nineteen centuries ago, when the angels
sang GLORY to God in the highest, and
on earth peace to men of good will" this
has been the season of Joy and good
fellowship; the time when all wrongs are
forgiven, old SORROWS laid aside like out
worn garments; when voices, all unused
to laughter or merry words, join in the
frolics of children; when long parted
friends are reconciled and desolate
hearthstones become cheerful. What
more appropriate then than for the New
MEXICAN to wish its friends and readers
all happiness of life! Prosperity, con-
tentment, good health and every other
blessing their hearts may desire, and all
those choice graces which this season
brings to those whose hearts are open to
the proper influences. In the words of
the poet:
"May those tiny out-stretched fingers,
Let the richest blessings fall,
Bring to each happy Christmas
And prosperous New Year to ALL"

The above is from the st. Louis Globe
Democrat and for fear any silver man
will think this powerful organ has
changed its belief it should be stated that
it is in the Issue of Dec. IS, last. When
the silver purchase repeal bill was under
discussion every bar of gold that left the
country was heralded as an owner of evil.
Now that Wall street has had its way the
evil becomes an undisguised blessing.
Organs have peculiar habit of respond
ing in tone to heintention of their manip-
ulators; and the Globe-Democrat is one
of the best of its kind.
