We publish Councilman Halls
views on the distribution of money
arising from saloon licenses in the
Legislative proceedings this week.
He advances all of the arguments
in favor Of his side of the question
but there are better ones on the
other side. Communities in which
saloons are located pay more than
half the taxes collected in New
Mexico; the saloons are supported
mainly by the residents of the
towns where they are situated and
the crimes committed are commit
ted against the residents of those
places, who, in the larger towns
where the licenses are high, are
obliged TO tax themselves for
police protection. Mr.. Hall would
have the reaidents of the cities tax
themselves to protect their persons
and property from the crimes
which he says are caused by the
saloons aud then pay over the Ii
cense money to the country school
districts.

PRESIDENT HARRISON surprised
everybody last week by appoint
ing a democrat to the vacant seat
on the supreme bench of the
United States and that before JUS
tice Lamar had been dead ten
days. 1t has not been the custom
for the President to appoint a JUS
tice so soon after the death of one
of the justices of the supreme
court and it has not been unusual
for a vacancy to exist for several
months. The possibility that the
President would appoint a demo-
crat had not been thought of by
politicians of either party and
when the name of Howell e. Jack
son, of Tennessee, was sent to the
senate last Thursday, the surprise
was general. Justice Jackson was
judge of the United States court
for the district in which he resid-
ed and is well qualified for the po-
sition.

THERE is a pretty fair prospect
that a bill will be passed at this
session of the Legislature provid-
ing for a normal school at Silver
City. This is the only town of
over two thousand inhabitants in
the Territory without a Territorial
institution Of some sort. This
County pays about one-tenth of
all the taxes paid in the Territory
andis helping support and main
tain an agricultural college, school
of mines, a university, a peniten-
tiary, an insane asylum and an
asylum for the deaf and dumb,
besides helping pay interest on
100000 in capitol bonds. The
normal school ought to be located
here.

ANDREW CARNEGIE has returned
to this country but he does not
like to talk about the great Home
stead strike. That strike was a
very expensive one but it taught
some valuable lessons. In the flu
ture Carnegie will call on the le-
gally constituted authorities of the
state when he is in trouble and
well paid laborers will think twice
before they go out on a strike,
The strike cost the state about
half a million; the laborers lost
over a million in wages and Carne-
gle lost nearly as much onaccount
of being unable to fill orders and
material spoiled by incom-
petent workmen. The experience
came high but it was worth the
amount paid and will prevent SIM
liar occurrences in the future.

THE SnERNAN SILYRR Ian.

Eastern bankers are making a
desperate effort to bring about a
repeal of the Sherman law in ref
erence to the purchase of silver.
They have found out that without
the cooperation of the people of
the west and south there can be
mo step taken backward on the
silver question and a committee
has been appointed in the east to
effect the repeal of the law. Cir
%culars have been sent to bankers
in the west and south asking that
petitions be sent to congress from
those sections, but there is little
probability that the people in
these localities will sign such petit
tons in any considerable num-
bers.
The contraction Of the currency
is desired only by the bankers in
the east and the only law in the
way of it is the Sherman law.
This country is, and has been for
years, exporting more gold annu-
ally than is produced here, so that
there is no possibility Of an in
crease in the gold circulation. The
national bank circulation is not
increasing and the circulation of
treasury notes and certificates is
increasing only under the opera
tons of the Sherman law. That
law provides for the monthly pur-
chase of a stated amount of silver
and the issue of certificates of an
amount equal TO the value of the
silver SO purchased.
The result is that the circulation
Of the country is increasing stead
lily in just about the same ratio as
the population of the country is
increasing. The production of
gold in this country is about $780,
100000 and our exports of that
metal amount to from S50,000,000
10 S70,000,000 a year. Last month
gold exports were over Sl0,000,000.
The Sherman law increases the
circulation of the country S54,-
000, 900 a year, so that there is a
net increase in circulation of about
S25, 000,000 which is only sufficient
20 keep the per capita circulation
whore it isnow.
The Sherman law is not what
the people of the west and south
want but they do not want it re-
pealed until they can get some
thing better. They want the free
and unlimited coinage of silver
and until such a bill can be passed
there Is little danger Of the repeal
of the Sherman law.

Within the past two
weeks a large number Of arrests
have been made OF employee
Of the Atchison, Topeka and Santa
Fe railroad. A conspiracy has
existed among the employees for
several months to rob the company
and as soon as the company COM
menced making arrests train crews
began to desert their trains and
decamp for parts unknown. Most
of the goods were stolen north of
Las Vegas and the operations be-
tween Ration and La Junta were
on a large scale.
Houses of many of the employees
were furnished in a style more
becoming millioniares than rail-
road employees, and a house to
house search revealed many incon-
gruities in house furnishing. The
following from an associated press
dispatch is a fair sample:
"1n the house Of a conductor
Brussels carpets five inches deep
we're found upon the floor, even
the kitchen and pantry being laid
with Brussels. Nothing short of
Brussels went. In the same house
was found a Chinese lace curtain
valued at $500, sent direct from
China for exhibition at the Worlds
fair. Three nickel plated range
cook stoves, a case of japanese
silk, Winchester rifles, two organs,
besides a miscellaneous assortment
Of other valuables were found"
A number eff the cases will come
mp for hearing on Thursday of
this week and the outcome will be
awaited with interest.

AFTER the prisoners in the coun-
ty Jail shall have laid a mile or
two Of sidewalk it might be a
good plan to put them to work in
the city quarry quarrying out
stone which might be used to COM
plete the wall around the court
house. Prisoners who are fed at
an expense of rs cents a day each
ought to do something toward
earning their board. There are
thousands of residents of Grant
County who subsist on less than
rs cents a day and .hey are obliged
TO help pay for the subsistence OF
the prisoners in the county jail
who have nothing to do. Let the
prisoners earn their bread by the
! sweat Of their brows.

The overthrow Of the Hawaiian
government has furnished the pol
~iticians Of this and some other
countries with something TO talk
about Commissioner from The
provisional government are now at
Washington seeking the consent
of this government for annexation,
while the deposed queen, Lii
ioukalanl has interested the En-
glish government in her cause.
Our minister was the first TO
recognize the provisional govern
ment but other ministers there
promptly recognized it with the
exception of the British minis
ter.
Three hundred United States ma
rines from the Boston, one Of our
new steel cruisers, were landed to
protect American interests and
several other war ships have been
ordered to Hawaii for the same
purpose.
The Sandwich Islands, from a
strategic point of view, are the
most important IN the Central
Pacific and this country cannot
afford to miss the opportunity now
offered to annex them. The area
of the islands, which are fifteen in
number, is a little less than that of
Grant County, but they are very
fertile. The annual exports amount
to about S20,000,00 and there is
no more important naval station
in the Pacific thar these islands.
Of course there will be opposi-
ton to the annexation of the is
lands. Great Britain has protested
and will continue to protest
but it win go no farther
than curt diplomatic messages.
England is in no position to fight
and a war with the Uuited States
is, perhaps, the last thing Eng
land would think seriously of. A
southern congressman, in discus
sing the question, said:
eve seek war with no one; to
be sure our navy Is small, but we
have money; we have the courage
of our convictions. snd should
England choose to throw down
the gauntlet and fire a single
shot at the American flag, she will
find us strictly in it to a finish"
A majority of the members Of
congress will favor annexation and
there is every reason to believe
that the inhabitants of the Sand
wich Islands will celebrate the
fourth of next July under the
folds of the American flag and in
true American style,

The Legislature seems to be dis
posed TO DO something in refer
ence to the holding Of party con-
veniions to nominate candidates
for ofice 1t seems to be the pre-
vailing idea hat a long campaign
is undesirable but the fixing Of a
time for the holding Of conventions
not moro than fifteen days pre-
vious to elections will be some
thing Of an innovation. In some
Of the states the law requires the
names of candidates to be fled with
n designated officer q certain num-
Der of days previous to the election,
but such q law as the onaproposed
would be an experiment with a
good many arguments in its favor.
While the Legislature is con-
sidering the question Of party con-
ventions it might be a good idea to
consider the feasibility of doing
away with them altogether as far as
conventions for the nomination of
candidates for county officers are
concerned. A plan which has been
productive of good results is to
hold precinct primaries and allow
voters to vote for their favorites for
the different county officers. The
result in each precinct is certified
to the county committee of the
party holding the primary and the
person who has received the largest
number of votes for any particular
Office is declared to be the candi-
date of the party for that Office by
the county committee.
This method insures the nomi-
nation of the most popular candi-
date for each Office and there is
no chance for combinations in
conventions or for the bribery of
delegates. THIS plan makes it a
fair contest for all and there is
less trouble and expense attending
it than there is in the holding of
conventions. Under the present
system primaries have to be held
and then the delegates selected
have to attend the county conven-
ton, making the expense, in in
stances where the delegates have
to come any considerable distance,
more than many who are chosen
can afford to stand and the result
is that some active politician
comes into the convention with a
number of proxies and has things
his own way.
The plan has been in successful
operation in the east for many
years and wherever it has been
tried it has never been abandoned.
1t is worth the while of our legis-
lators to consider this plan in con.
nection with the bill which has
passed the house.

The latest report shows that
there are over 100000 in the
hands of the Territorial treasurer
and the Territory is not getting a
cent of interest on it. The legis-

Grafton of this question. 1t could
do this with more profit than it
can discuss the trip to Denver.

The republicans in the senate,
having seen the utter hopelessness
of retaining control OF that body
after the 4th of March, have con-
scented to include Arizona in the
omnibus bill for the admission of
territories. 1t came hard for the
republican senators to make up
their minds to accept the situation
and numerous caucuses were held
to devise some means to prevent
the democrats from gaining con-
troll of the senate. AS long as any
hope remained the republicans
stubbornly refused to consent to
the admission of Arizona. Now
that the democrats have votes
enough to organize the new senate
the republicans see that there is
no eason for further opposition
to the admission of the terrific
ries.

IT is quite probable that there
will be an extra session or con-
eress. 1t is reported on what
seems to be good authority that
Cleveland will call an extra session
of congress within a month after
his Inauguration if the present
congress does not repeal the Sher-
man silver law. AS there is not
the slightest reason for supposing
that this congress will repeal this
law there may be an extra session.
AS the next senate will contain
more friends of silver than there
are in the senate now, it is fair to
suppose that if the senate does
anything it will be TO pass a fres
coinage bill.

for the members of the legislature
to do something about the passage
of a bill reducing the fees and sal
aries of public officers. There is
not a newspaper of any importance
