GOVERNOR THORNTON commenc-
ed the task of removing officials
who imagined that the laws were
made to be disobcyed in a county
which has been almost b~ankrupted
by just such officials as were re-
moved. The friends of good gov
eminent all over the Territory APP
prove of his course and the only
ones who disapprove of it are
those who are directly injured and
their sympathizers. Law break
ers are generally deserving of very
little sympathy but in New Mexi-
co they usually get more than
they deserve.

COLLECTORS will have to turn
over the funds in their hands as
the law directs while Thornton is
Governor Of New Mexico or they
viii be replaced by men who will
comply with the laws. This
will save the taxpayers of the Ter
ritory a good many dollars and il
such a course had been adopted
years ago the Territory and all
the counties in it would have been
better off.

IT Is perfectly clear that Gov
ernor Thornton intends to see that
the laws Of the Territory are en-
forced. He has already removed
two officials for failure TO comply
with the laws and if these object
lessons are not enough to teach
other officials to do as the laws di-
rect, il is more than probable that
other examples viii be made. The
good effect Of the action taken by
the Governor is already apparent
and it may be that he will not
find it necessary to romoye other
officials.

RICHARD MANSFIELD WHITE,
the Worlds Fair commissioner
from this Territory who was re-
moved by the President a short
time since, refuses to recognize
the power of the President to re-
move him and is hanging to the
Office with a tenacity which is sur
prising. If n~otorlety is what he is
seeking, he is getting just what he
is looking for. He is undoubtedly
the most energetic and persistent
kicker on the entire board and has
been sat down upon so many times
by the other members that il
would seem hat his protests must
necessarily be feeble now, but such
is not the case. AS soon as he
heard that he had been removed
and j. M. Webster had been ap,
pointed in his place, he announced
that he would make a fight and he
has done so. He still retains his
position and the case bids fair tC
become a celebrated one before
it ic ended. White says that

The Santa Fe ring backed its
servant, Sheriff Conkln, in his
fight for the Office Of sheriff Of
Santa Fe county, but it's backing
was Of no avail. The ring is pref
ty badly twisted and is likely to
get some more pretty hard knocks
before the end of the present adj
ministration.

CATRoN made a strong fight for
the Office of sheriff of Santa Fe
county for his friend Conklin but
il was Of no avail. He was unable
to bulldoze Judge Fall and Conk-
lin had to step down and'out and
let Cunningham have the Office.

The action of Judge Fall has
been sharply criticised by some
of the republican papers of the
Territory. 1t is claimed that his
decision in the Santa Fe sheriff
case was influenced by political
motives but such is far from being
the case. Judge Seeds had APP
proved the bond of Cunningham
thus virtually acknowledging that
his appointment as sheriff by the
Governor was a valid appointment
but at the same time he granted
an injunction restraining him
from interfering with the Office
until the time set for the hearing
of the injunction. Although his
bond had been accepted he was
prevented from exercising the
functions of the office by the in
junction. After this action had
been taken, Judge Seeds left the
Territory. Judge Fall was sum-
moned to Santa Fe and the case
was argued before him. He dis
solved the injunction and issued
a writ of mandamus requiring
Conklin to turn over the records
of the sherif's Office to Cunning
ham who was recognized as sher-
lf. IL the action of Fall in dis
solving the injunction and issuing
a writ of mandamus was governed
by political motives, the action of
Judge Seeds in approving the
bond of Cunningham is liable
to the same imputation and
Seeds is a republican. If Seeds
had had any doubts as to the ie-
gality of the appointment he would
hardly have approved the bond
offered by Cunningham. The
bond was offered as the bond OF
the sheriff of Santa Fe county and
if the Judge had doubts as to his
title to the office he would not
have approved the bond.

THE DENVER SILVER cONyEN.
TiON.

Denver last week and the dele
gates who composed that conyen-
ton spoke in no uncertain tones
on the silver question.
The address which they issued
to the people Of this country puts
the question in a clear light and
those who take the trouble to read
it viii get a pretty good idea Of
the situation in the west. II was
written by L. M. Patterson, editor
Of the Denver News, and has al
ready been widely published.
One Of the points which will
command attention in the east is
as follows: 1--WE of Colorado
pride ourselves upon our CONNER
cial and financial integrity. No
calamity can induce us to repudi-
ate one dollar of an honest debt.
All of our assets are at the Will Of
our creditors for their reimburse
ment. But if by bad congresslon-
al legislation, if through congress
you shall wipe out the great in
dustry Of the section around which
all others cluster for vigor and
profit, the values Of our properties
will shrink, our business will be
destroyed, our towns and cities
will be largely depopulated, and
the railroads traversing the west
ern half Of the continent will be
sent into bankruptcy. Certainly
in the face Of such unmerited af-
Fiction you cannot blame us if we
are thus deprived Of ability to
meet our obligations. You may,
it is true, take the country in pay
ment, but after you get it what
will you do with it?'
The eastern papers have COM
mented on it quite freely and the
silver question is being talked
about in the east as it has never
been talked about before. The
air of supreme Indifference to the
welfare of the people of the west
is beginning to give way to alarm
for the safety of eastern invest
ments and money lenders there
are beginning to look up the silver
side of the question.
Although the time is short be-
fore the meeting of congress in
extra session, the silver question
will be much better understood
when congress meets than it is
now. The President may be able
to influence some of the members
of congress by the bestowal of
patronage and the opponents of
silver may be able to get a bill for
the repeal of the Sherman law
through the house of representa-
tives without the enactment of any
silver legislation in It's place but
the senate will hold out for the
free coinage of silver and the
President will not be able to bring
pressure enough on the senators
to make them change their views.
The silver men are undoubtedly
stronger in congress now than they
were three weeks ago and the only
hope Of getting any converts to
the other side of the cause is
through liberal promises of patron-
age.
The people of the east have
been fighting silver for years but
the reaction is beginning to come.
1t is beginning to dawn on some
of them that to fight against silver
is to fight against their own inter
ests and when this gets to be gen.
orally understood there will be as
many friends of silver in the east
as there are in the west. The
Denver convention has done some
good at least in getting the ques-
ton before the people.

THE gold bugs in Wall street
are beginning to get alarmed at the
situation. If they succeed in re-
pealing the Sherman law without
a substitute in the shape of a free
coinage law they will have still
more cause for alarm.

morning of Wednesday, Nov.
short and felicitous address and
President Dale responded in kind.
When the naval party arrived provis
ional troops we're drawn up along the
driveway from the gate to the execu-
tive building and the Hawaiian band
played America" as the admirars
party passed In. President Dale in lis
speech said he had hoped Admiral
Skerrett would remain in Honolulu
until Hawaiian affairs were settled as
the admiral had been in Honolulu
during so much of the recent trouble.
When the naval officers left the build
ing the band played the Star Spangled
Banner.
The newspapers which support mon
archy have daily had much to say
about the political organization known
as the American League. The league
is said to be society composed of
American residents in Honolulu,
pledged to maintain the provisional
government in all things except com.
promise with monarch. The members
are said to be pledged to armed sup
port of the authorities against riot or
insurrection pending the establish
ment of stable government.
The organization is said to
favor an increase of the police force
and a reduction of military to volun-
unteer basis, and popular representa-
tion in the advisory council; also to
favor preference of American citizens
as candidates for Office. The League
is secret order and is supposed to
have 10 or 80 members.

was an inspiration of the moment and
showed conclusively that he (Patrick)
had it in contemplation, for months
and he could produce letters to that
effect and that he believed it had been
inspired by animus engendered in his
PatricK's) race as the Republican can
didate for congress year ago.
AT the conclusion of Mr.. Hanna's re-
marks, the judge directed him to form
ulate such action as he thought the
court should take against Patrick and
present them in due order of business.
Patrick then, with a voice trembling
with emotion, asked the courts per-
mission to file a statement defining his
action in the case, This was granted,
and thus ended the case.
Mr. Hutcheson was instantly sur
rounded by his friends, unanimously
congratulated upon his full and com
plete vindication of all the charges al
legged against him. 1t is the general
belief that Patrick's unwarranted ac-
tion will ultimately lead to his COM
plete disbarInent from all courts OF
practice, both federal and state. He
feels his defeat keenly. The fairness
and impartiality of the court in this

Hon. j. O. Hutcheson submitted TO

States circuit and district court to-
morrow directing United States Dis
trlct Attorney Hanna to take action
looking TO the disbarment of A. T.
Patrick from practicing in the federal
courts Of the Eastern district OF Tex
as. This is the outgrowth OF the dis
barment proceedings begun against
Hutchinson by Patrick and which
terminated today SO disastrously to
the latter. Patrick. anticipating the
coming storm, left for New York on
the 2 o'clock train this afternoon,
hence service cannot be had upon him

cause at this term of the court,
