AGAINST SILVER.

IT is undoubtedly true that President
Cleveland is playing for time in postpon-
Sinr, as he has, the assembling of the inter
national monetary conference. He is max
ing his appointments and pulling all his
wires to bring the silver purchasing act
into as much disfavor as possible, and he
knows the reassembling of this congress
would cause the Wall street agitators to
cease for the time being their fight on
silver. This would interfere with his
mans in that it would leave him prac'
tically alone in the fight. The west will
not have much difficulty in seeing through
this, the presidents latest move against
bimetallisn.

THE LONG DROUGHT.

The present spring season seems to be
decidedly out of joint For four weeks
or more storm clouds and cold weather
hayo lowered over the central western
states and steadily the storm center
contrary to all weather rules-has moved
westward till it is now over the Rocky
mountain country and May in this sec
ton, which is usually dry month,
promises now to provea wet one-and If it
does it we'll prove God-send. People
have generally no idea of what disaster
has come to the southwest in late years
for lack of water. In this territory the
rainfall has been running behind the
normal supply for nearly two years. In
western Texas there has been a long
drought, and in northern and central
Mexico the situation is deplorable.
Water is scarce and food is scarcer.
There the rain has not fallen for three
years. Now drenching rain serves
as purifying agent upon the health OF a
community; it imparts new life to the
domestic water supply and purifies the
atmosphere. For three years Mexico has
been minus these healthful agencies, and
as result people down there are dying
like sheep of typhus fever. A soaking
rain would be blessing to New Mexico,
worth at this time millions of dollars in
starting the streams and replenishing the
grass crop, now worn bare to the roots,
but to tho poorer classes of Mexico it
would come rs benedlction in the saving
of life. 1t is earnestly hoped that ere
many days the now gathering clowds will
bring relief.

the NAVAJO WAR.

The Aztec Index, published in San
Juan county and in the immediate vi
cinity of the recent alleged Navajo out
break. asserts that there was about hnu'
dred times more Indian war in the Den
yer newspapers than there really was in
San Juan county. That's about the size
Of It. The NEW MEXICAN took no stock
in the reports, knowing the Indians, thu
situation and the conditions obtaining
on the San Juan and Las Animas. How
ever. it's over now and let it rest.

will learn lesson from the unnecessary
excitement which was stirred up over the
alleged threatened outbreak. Every
spring somebody starts a report that the
Navajos are about to go on the war-path,
and it is time the practice were stopped.
Such reports 60 east and the people who
read eastern newspapers get the idea that
the inhabitants of the country adjacent to
the Navajo reservation are in danger of
death at the hands of savages. 1t is need
less to say that this hurts Colorado, New
Mexico and Arizona. 1t is an injury, too,
which need not be inflicted. The Navajos
are barbarians, but they are not savages.
They own flocks and herds, and they have
no disposition to engage in war with the
whites or with any other Indians. They
are peaceable, orderly, well-behaved
people, and the inhabitants of the coun-
try adjacent to their reservation are in
no danger whateyer.--Denver Repub-

The Revenue COllectOrship for New
Mexico and Arizona.
The New MEXICAN announces that G. M.
Shannon, the Arizona candidate for in
ternal revenue collector, will make Santa
Fe his headquarters, if appointed. This
fact ought to e1tinguish Mr.. shannon's
prospects. The only imaginable claim
no can have to the office is as an Arizon-
ian. and on the ground that Arizona
should now be entitled to the place, since
New Mexico has filed it for two terms.
This claim is negatived by the fact that
three fourths, or more, of the business of
the district comes from New Mexico.
Consequently, New Mexico should be en-
titled to the office. But if Mr.. Shannon
is not an applicant from Arizona, if he is
simply one more among the many ap-
plicants from New Mexico, his claim
should not be worth mill on the dollar.
Should this particular piece of patronage
90 to Santa Fe, B. Seligman is the candi-
date who ought to get it; but inasmuch
as Santa Fe has gotten the governorship
and will probably get the secretaryship,
Las Vegas should get the collectorship,
in the person of M. S. Hart.--Las Vegas
