Grover Cleveland seems to possess the
ambition to be the only Democratic
President of his time. Since he is on his
last term he is determined to shape
affairs so that no other Democrat can
become President while he lives. Either
this proposition is true or he does not
possess any political sagacity or quail
ties of craftsmanship, and the Democ-
racy is left to its choice. On no other
grounds can his general course as Presi-
dent be explained.

There is really no great need for Re-
p ublicans to point out the inequalities,
inconsistencies, and general shortcomings
of the Wilson bill. There are plenty of
Democrats who are doing that. Only
those Democrats who do not know a
tariff bill from a saw-log are satisfied
with the measure proposed by the West
Virginia theorist.

Ex-President Harrison remarks that
he has come to the conclusion that his
family is a little overweighted with
ancestry and that he is now looking after
posterity. There is certainly more sense
in having care as to the character of
our posterity than in doting on our
ancestry, no matter how creditable that
may have been to us, and Gen. Harrison
again displays his sound mindedness by
the remark.

The latest cause of discord between
President Cleveland and his party is
found in the fact that the President in
speaking of the United States uses the
singular verb. This fact has given great
offense to some States rights Democrats
who always use the plural verb. But
then we are glad that the President has
come over to the Republican way Of
thinking and indulges in the grammatical
construction which four years war
demonstrated to be correct.

THURSDAY. DEC. %. 1898.
PENCIL POINTERS.

Next Monday the new General Assem-
bly, will convene and enter upon its
duties. This Legislature is charged with
a great responsibility ana no doubt the
members elect have the ability to dis
charge their duty we'll if they only exer-
else the common sense they manifest in
other affairs. The people have long been
crying out against the long annual
sessions of the Legislature, which made
possible much special legislation as well
as many vicious laws of general char
acter The people are overburdened with
laws and want a rest, and demand that
this Legislature cut down the record
in that line. The people also demand
biennial sessions, and appropriations cut
to the lowest notch. If these demands
are listened to and needed by the Repre-
sentatives and Senators, their actions
will receive the approval of the men who
sent them. As the next Legislature
elects United States Senator it is of
the utmost importance that this body
make good record, otherwise the Dem
ocrats might succeed in holding the
Senatorship.

1t is already becoming evident that
Chicago has her hand in the pocket OF
the great American people this year,
and the prospects are that business un-
connected with the Worlds Fair will be
decidedly dull. The majority of the
American people are not those who
can have every luxury they wish for,
but those who must choose and dis
criminate in spending their money.
With the majority of those who go TO
the Worlds Fair, it will mean palmer
living for time, cheaper clothing, less
money in the savings bank or insur-
ance company, less for the minister's
salary, the printer and the doctor un-
paid. Those who cater to the mere
pleasure-loving and luxurious tastes of
mankind will have to move to Chicago
or 90 out of business.

HILLSBORO'S GOLD.
A Recent Visitor Talks of the Pre-
yailing Prosperity in a
Great Camp.

Hon. j. E. Saint, who has recently
spent some days at Hillsboro, Sierra
county, thus talks to the Albuquerque
Citizen: '
"There are about 1907 nen at work in
the placers no2, and they are making
from 80 cents to $40 per day per man
with dry washers. The output of the
camp during this year will probably
reach $500,00O in gold. The output of
ore to date has reached about $4,000 toas
of first class ore, most of which is milled
in tho camp. The Opportunity mine,
owned by the Gold Standard Milling COM
pany, on their 400 foot level have un-
covered a heavy body of sulphide ores
that will average thirty inches in width
and runs $40 to the ton, which makes the
Opportunity probably the richest gold
mine ever discovered in New Mexico.
There is one characteristic of this camp; i;
every tissure vein developed shows that
the ore body gets wider and richer as they
60 down. This is proved in the Good
Hope Bonanza that is now working on
the 600 foot level. This mine, when dis
co, cred, showed a pay streak of four in
ches on the surface, while on the 600 foot
level it is many dollars richer to the ton
and has widened out to some eighteen in
ches of irst-class ore"
