They VIII Organize the Senate to Suit
Themselves, so Says the Wash
ington Post.
The Finance Committee VIII BE
Dominated by Avowed Silver
Men.
President Cleveland Gives 1t Ont That
Former Office Holders Need Not
Apply.

WASHINGTON, March 1.-THE Post
publishes the following gossip as to the
reorganization of the senate:
The work of arranging the senate
committee chairmanships is SO far pro-
gressed that nearly all have been Sc
lscted. The most interesting develop
ment of proceedings. however, Is the
fact that the free silver men
Propose 90 Run the Senate 1 j
their own way, and they are recasting
the finance committee SO as to leave no
doubt of the stand which the committee
win take on any coinage bills that may
come before it. The Democrats on the
committee mp to March were Senators
voorhees,, Mcpherson. Harris and
Vance. Senator Voorhees, win be the
chairman of the committee. and Messrs.
Harris and Vance, both outspoken free
silver men, win remain. MIR. McPher-
con will, however, step aside and will
take the craftsmanship of the committee
on naval affairs, place for which ne is
eminently fitted. and the other Demo
Gratis ON the finance committee will be
Senators Coke and Vest. both of whom
are avowedly on the
Free Coinage Platform.
Ii will thus be seen that no matter
what Mr.. Cleveland may desire, the per-
sonnel of the finance committee Is such
as to make it almost impossible for him
to dominate the financial policy to be
followed by the senate. All the anti
silver men, such as Mr.. Villas, MIR. Nc
pherson and others, have been pur-
posely kept off the committee.
Senator Morgan will be chairman OF
the committee on foreign relations. Mr..
Cockrell of appropriations, Mr.. Harris
of the District of Columbia, MIR. Cor
man of printing, Mr.. Mills OF library
and Mr.. Palmer of military affairs.
Objects TO Colonel Washington.
An interesting piece Of gossip is K
the effect that Mr.. Cleveland has ex
pressed to several senator's his objection
10 the election of Colonel L. @. G
washington as secretary of the senate
Colonel Washington was a bitter op
ponent of the president, circulating
long open letter denouncing Mr.. Cleve
land for inviting negroes to his home
referring to the visit of Fredericl
Douglass and in other ways assert
ing his hostility. 1t is said that Mr
Cleveland has intimated that the secre
tary of the senate ought to be maj
with whom the president can enjoy tn
,,looeouf fast Intimacy and that certaini'
he could have no relations with Colone
Washington if the latter should b
chosen to fill the position.

THE POWER OF THE BANKS,

There are more ways of settling the
financial troubles than hammering the
life out of silver For instance, what's
the matter with looking a little closer
after the national banks: If il is true
and it seems plausible, that the con
traction of the circulating medium by the
banks is largely responsible for the panic
this country has just gone through, good
policy would suggest that the existing
power which the law confer5 upon nation
al banks to increase or diminish the vol
ume of currency in circulation at will
should be changed. This is a matter
which must be as apparent to the creditor
class as il is to the debtor class, and the
sooner the banks themselves get to work
and consent to some equitable adj Just
ment of the question the sooner will it be
well for them as also for the whole coun-
try, The day is certainly not far distant
when, if such questions are not wisely
considered by congress, very serious trou-
BILE must be looked for.

A CITY HIGH SCHOOL.

Probably every one understands that
the future of Santa Fe is as beautiful,
prosperous and wealthy residence city,
Of similar character to Colorado Springs,
but with many more advantages Of eli
mate and interesting features TO bring
this about, the town must be made at
tractiye in every way. The first question
with most families contemplating resi-
dence is as to the public schools. At
present We have nothing to show i'll that
way that will attract or even satisfy.
Nearly every town in New Mexico has
built handsome school houses but wo
have none. Already this lack has lost to
us many excellent residents. Not only
DO we fail to attract new Corners in this
way, but it is calculated that $4,000 Il
year is lost to Santa Fe by the sending
away of our children for education in
other places. Circumstances have not
seemed to warrant building a proper
central school house, and so matters have
drifted along, in very much the old way.
Now, an opportunity is fortunately pre-
scented to improve the situation greatly
without having to build The University
building can be had for the purposes of Il
high school at 4 nominal rent.
In this way the school board has great
opportunity afforded to them. They can
obtain this building and open the high
school there next Monday at very little
expense, and the old houses will do well
enough for primary ward schools for a
while. The board meets tonight and
should act Immediately. There is no time
to lose. We will thus have something to
which we can point with pride when in
ouiries are made as to our schools.
