The Deming Headlight says
that the SOUTHWEST SENTINEL was
one of the two western papers that
was able to reconcile President
Oleveland's message with free sill
yer sentiments. OF course it could
not be expected that the Head
light would be able to do any thing
of the sort because it is too obtuse.
If x-Governor Ross had been
editor Of the paper at the time
the message was published there
would have been three western
papers able to reconcile the mess
age and free silver sentiments.

STEPS are now being taken to
secure the Territorial funds which
were on deposit in the Albuquer-
que National and the New Mexico
Savings banks at Albuquerque at
the time of the closing of the
doors Of those institutions. There
are, IN all, about 100000 of the
Territorial funds in these banks
but the Territory is secured by
bonds amounting to more than
100000. There is little, if any
danger Of loss to the Territory
but the Territorial officials consid-
er that it is the best plan to have
as little delay as possible in get
ting a settlement as the money is
needed by the Territory, and to
this end they are trying to make
arrangements with the bondsmen
TO pay the amount due.

Col. WEBSTER FLANAGAN, who
made himself famous 10y inquiring
"What are we here for?" will soon
have to step down and out of his
position as collector of the port of
El Paso. Notwithstanding the
fact that, when the democrats were
in Office, he was very anxious to
have their places filed with re-
%publicans, he asked some time
since to be retained in his position
until the expiration of his term.
Secretary Carlisle has been endeav-
oring to reconcile his former ex-
preston with his present desire and
has been unable to do so. The
place will be given to a democrat
in a few days and the gallant col
onel will be at leisure to solve the
question what are we here for2"
