RISKS ARE PROFITABLE.
Insurance in Minnesota Has Paid
Its WaV.

The following interesting table of in
surance figures has been gathered from
the reports Of the various companies
received by the state commissioner
since the first of the year. The table is
for fire companies only, and does not
include marine figures. 1t goes to show
that the insurance companies have had
a profitable year in this state, the rate
of loss on the amount of premiums paid
in being lower than it has been for
years. In 1891 the insurance business
was conducted in the state at loss.
Following is the table for 1892 in Min

treasurer's office, Mr. Mercer apd
three assistants, all of whom we're
paid for their services by the former
out Of his own salary. Surely no
judge or jury would hold that a
county officer is required to pay for n
clerical force that would take all of
his salary. He is expected to use due
diligence in the work in his office, and
no more, and any reasonable man
will say that this was done.
Some say that the treasurer should
not issue a receipt until he knows
that draft or a check is good. II
this course was pursued, especially as
regards drafts, more confusion than
ever would follow, as days and per-
haps months would elapse before
many Of them would be heard from,
and by that time possibly the added
penalties would amount to more than
the amount Of the draft. The only
safe way for the treasurer to do would
be to follow the example Of the gov
eminent and accept nothing but the
cash.
Mr.. Mercer is only seeking to get
such rights as the laws Of the land
give to HIM, nothing more. In this
he should have the support of every
man who believes in the settlement
of difficulties between man and man
by the courts. If justice is done to
Mr.. Mercer, and the HERALD believes
it will be, Notwithstanding the fact
that Mr., Dawson and the Dispatch
make out attorneys and courts to be
set ''of not overly conscientious Gus
ses," this case will be settled in his
favor and the bank be compelled to
make good its obligations. That part
Of the article that refers to the attor-
neys the HERALD will leave to them.
In conclusion the HERALD must
override the decision of Chief JUS
tice Dawson and his associate justice,
the Dispatch, and give the verdict to
Mr.. Mercer.

The railroads should reduce pas
senger rates to the Worlds fair The
people have some rights that the rail
road companies are bound to respect.
The fair is a great national affair.
The people have a right to portion
of the benefits accruing therefrom,
and no corporation or syndicate of
men has right to take advantage of
the event to fleece the people. 1t is
such hoglshness as this that drives
the people to seek the restriction of
the greed Of railroad corporations In
fhe halls of Legislation. The fact
that the people have the right through
their legislatures to control railroad
corporations establishes the right of
the people to demand just treatment
at this time. The absence of legisla-
ton does not give the companies the
right, although it may give them the
opportunity, to extort from the peo-
pie all the traffic will bear. The ex-
ercise Of this power may, in the near
future, bring its fruits in extreme
railroad Legislation. Topeka Press

The gentle hints which have been
out from republican papers all over
the state relative to the Importance of
the Office OF county clerk IS only
another Of the schemes by which they
aim to take unfair advantage of the
opposition. They urge their political
fixers to trade anything for county
clerk For" they say, with the
proper certificates Of election we can
organize the next Legislature" This
looks very much like u determination
to nominate and elect men to the
county clerkship who are unscrupu-
lous enough to issue certificates to
representatives whether they are
elected or no. 1t is the duty of every
citizen to be on guard to see that no
such scheme to defeat the will of the
people is worked.

An Unusual &aale.

The sand storms continue, and if they
are SO bad in Santa Fe what must they be
in other parts of the west where broad
stretches of country permit the wind to
have full sweep? Santa Fee Is partly pro-
tected from the winds because of her
sheltered location in the mountains and
hence it is that no damage has resulted
from this unusual wind storm. Elsewhere,
however, some considerable damage has
been done in the way of blowing over
telephone and telegraph poles, fences,
ETC., but no serious injury is reported to
either persons or property up to this
writing.
While on this sub ect, it may be stated
that the instruments at the weather bu-
reau show some right interesting features.
For three days and. until yesterday the
humidity record stood at zero-that is,
the atmosphere was absolutely devoid of
all moisture. Yesterday the humidity
registered per cent; to-day it IL "a per
cent. Last night the barometer regis
tered 1858, the lowest point touched in a
year.
There was a furry of snow on the
mountains this morning and there
is undoubtedly fearful blizzard
and snow storm raging in Colorado
Should the wind cease within the next
twelve hours a welcomed snow or rain fall
may be looked for hereabouts.

THE CONEJOS GRANT.
Excitement in the San Luis Valley
Over the Filing of a Great Grant
in the Land Court.

Hon. VIM. E. Broad, of Chama, who was
in the city yesterday states that much ex-
element prevails throughout the San
Luis valley, in Colorado over the recent
filing of grant in the U. S. court of priv
ate land claims here, which takes in al
most the whole of that famous valley.
An investigation of the records shows
that such claim has been filed and it is
known as the Conejos grant, in which
Crecencio Valdez is claimant. The grant
was made In the year 1888, by Francisco
Serracino, political chief, or governor of
New Mexico, to Celedon Valdez, ct al, for
land on the Conejos river. Owing to an
the grantees were prevented from taking
possession. On October IL, 1912, possess
sion was given to eighty-three heads of
families. The land is bounded ON the
north by the Garita Hill, on the south by
the San Antonito mountain; on the east
by the Rio Grande and on the west uy the
Sierra Montosa. The grant has never been
surveyed and the area is not known,
but parties familiar with these land
marks claim that the grant covers almost
the whole valley outside OF the Baca
grant and what is now called the Trim
chera estate, and includes the towns of
Antonito, La lara, Alamosa, Monte Vista
and probably Del Norte, and in fact all
towns of consequence and all the best
land of the valley.
The father of claimant, Celadon Valdez,
was an old Mexican who died in southern
Conejos county about eight years ago.
During his life he often showed papers
touching his claim. His son, Hon. Gre
sencio Valdez, represented Couejos coun-
ty in the 7th Colorado assembly and is a
man of means and influence in southern
Colorado. The firm of Catron & Coons,
this city, has been employed to push the
claim before the land court.

Where to stop in chicago.

The perplexing question which is every
day asked by people who desire to go to
Chicago to attend the Worlds fair is,
"Where are we going to stay when we get
there3" This is easily answered, and if
you will go to the ticket agent of the
Santa Fe, Mr.. W. M. Smith, he will tell
you.
Arrangements have been made for the
distribution by the Santa Fe company of
a pamphlet entitled Homes for Visitors
to the Worlds Fair" This is reliable
pamphlet containing the rames and ad-
dresses of about 5000 families who will
furnish accommodations to visitors from
May to October 81, 1898, The pamphlet
also contains sectional maps which will
enable the intending visitor to select any
quarter of the city that he would prefer.
Correspondence can then be carried on
and definite arrangements made so that
when visitors arrive IN Chicago they can
proceed at once to their quarters.
