livelihood on our great industry, ought

"Respectfully, the San Miguel Sheep
Breeders association,
by FILADELFo BAoA, President.
"M. B. GoLDENnERG, Secretary"
This frantic appeal to New Mexican
wool growers reminds us of locking the
stable door after the horse is stolen.
During the last campaign who was more
earnest and active than Filadelfo Baca in
procuring the defeat of the men and the
party who for thirty years have warded
off the Democratic death blow from the
wool industry Did not this same Fila
delfo Baca and all his ilk denounce the
Republican party (the only party which
has been the true and loyal friend of him
and his) as being unworthy of support,
and did he not receive his reward by be-
ing made clerk of the lower house of the
last legislature? The Mckinley act gave
wool ample protection, but it was the
sum of all iniquity, it was robbery, it was
unconstitutional last fall, and if 80 then,
is so now. Come, Mr.. Baca, you are too
good free trade Democrat to 20 back
on the time-honored principles of your
party, although you know, or ought to
know that every man in your party, from
Joseph down to Gle, Gland, is in favor Of
putting wool on the free list, which you
very truthfully and pathetically remark
"means bankruptcy to all engaged in the
sheep industry" 1t is ungracious to say
we told you SO, but We did all the same.

the REVENUE COLLECTORS OFFICE.

There is neither rhyme nor reason in
the talk that tho appointment of Chas. NJ.
Shannon as q. S. internal revenue collec-
tor for this district means the transfer of
this Office from New Mexico to Arizona.
Business not sentiment governs in these
matters, and the fact that seven-tenths Of
the business of the Office originates in
New Mexico will more than likely serve
to keep the Office whore it is at present.
1t was this fact that prompted its re-
moval in the first place from Arizona to
New Mexico. Besides, here the govern
ment has gone to the expense of erect
ing handsome public structure, the
federal building, wherein the in
ternal revenue Office is located,
and which building is under
the custody of the collector. How
important is regarded the duty of GUS
todian of this building in the eyes of the
government is shown by the fact that the
treasury department e1acts of the party
holding it bond in the penal sum of
$4,000 for the faithful performance
thereof, and it is as much the duty of the
collector to look after this building as it
is to collect the revenue tax or attend to
any other feature of the Office work. It
Is therefore not at all possible that Mr..
Shannon will attempt to make any change
in the present order of things however
much pressure may be brought to bear
by his supporters in Arizona.

the figures presented, but disagreed with
his conclusions. They deny after his
statement, just as strongly as they did
before his statement, that the Sherman
law forces the government to exchange
gold for silver. They urge, on the con-
trary, that the law expressly allows the
secretary to redeem the notes issued
against the silver bullion in either gold
or silver, and that if they are redeemed in
gold the responsibility rests with the ad-
ministration, not with the law. That
statute, they say, may be very bad
statute, but it should not be denounced
until it is fairly tried-which trial, they
claim. has not yet been given. What they
want is redemption of coin notes in silver
for two years. If at the end of that time
financial conditions are not bettered, and
the reputation of the Sherman act is not
improved, they promise to vote for its
repeal in good faith if not in cheerful
ness. They predict, however, that the
next congress, whether called IN July or
September, will not vote for the abroga-
ton of law that has been unfairly

A GOOD MEASURE,

The Berry antitrust bill has become
law by net of the legislature Of Illinois.
1t defines trust as a combination of
skill, capital or acts by two or more per-
sons, firms, corporations, ETC., to create
restrictions on trade, to limit production
or reduce or enhance the price of mer-
ohandise, to prevent competition in any
manner, or to fix any standard whereby
the price TO the public of commodities
may be controlled or established, and
prohibits corporations outside the state
from doing business within its borders il
the act is violated. This is good law,
It gives simple definition of a trust and
is about the only thing of which the nli-
nois legislature may be proud.
