The Arizona & New Mexico road,
like most the other roads In both ter
ritories, has had trouble with wash
outs this season. The difference be-
tween this road and the others being
that IL had more trouble than most
others. From the 4th to the 18th 1t
was unable to get a train over the
whole Of the road. Many times 1t
had the washouts fixed and the Oils
cleared Off only to nnd It necessary to
do the work over again. But for the
indomitable energy Of President Cal
quhoun and the other officers Of the
road Il would have been abandoned
till the rainy season was over. The
people Of Clifton and MOrenci got a
little short on the luxurles, but had
enough Of the necessaries Of life TO
carry them through. The smelters
run short Of coke and had to shut
down. The road is now open and IL
is hoped will have no more trouble.
For a time there will be two trains on
the road, One each way, the road not
being In condition to stand fast run

ing silver mine is more than a good
many Of the editors of the papers
which talk so glibly about the cost

time and a fortune in finding a sill
yer mine and hundreds have spent
both without finding a paying mine
but these able writer's who figure
out the cost Of the production Of
silver do not take these things into
consideration in the making of
their worthless statistics. They
take a mine which is in operation
and to the cost of mining a ton of
ore they add the cost of its reduc-
ton and make this the cost Of the
silver produced. These figures are
about as near the truth as would
be obtained in figuring the cost of
a pound of beef if the cost slaugh-
tering and cutting up the carcass
was taken as a basis.

SHERIFF CUNNINGHAM still holds
the fort at Santa Fe and Conklin
who was recently removed by the
Governor in wondering where he
is sat" and trying to devise some
means of getting out of his predica-
ment. Some of the republican
newspapers of the Territory charge
that the removal was for political
reasons only and that the decision
of Judge Fall in the matter was
by political motives. 1t
is perhaps enough to say in refer
ence to the charge against Fall
that two republican judges have
heard portions of the case and
that nearly every point which
either of them decided was in fav-
or of Cunningham. AS to the
charge that the removal was for po-
litical reasons, there could scarce
ly anything else be expected of a
republican paper, although 1t must
be said that some of the republican
papers of the Territory have re-
Trained from such remarks. If a
republican official is found to be
inefficient, careless, inattentive to
duties or a defaulter and is. re-
moved the republican press in
general charges that the removal
was made for political reasons, but
if a democrat happens to get his
official head cut off for the same
reasons he is defaulter or thief
from a republican standpoint.
Queer isn't it?

JUDGE FALL is doing his duty
and is rendering prompt decisions
in all matters brought before him.
The following complimentary no
tice appeared in the Enterprise
last week:
Judge A. b. Fall is the recipient OF
many plainly expressed encomiums,
for the able and decisive manner in
which he is disposing Of the cases
brought before him for trial. If we
are right we want our rights. II we
are wrong give the other fellow his
rights Don't waste mems lives as we'll
as their property by keeping the
pigeon holes of the court desks full Of
Jarndyce VS.. Jarndyce pleadings, as it
is complained by many has been done
heretofore. If Judge Fall were only a
republican The Enterprise would
compliment him too, but as 1t is we
must refrain.

THE decision Of Judge Fall in
reference to the tax levy IN this
County, which was published in
the last issue of this paper, will
relieve the taxpayers Of the Coun-
ty considerably but it is not quite
apparent where the board of Coun-
ty commissioners is going to get
the money necessary to pay the
current expenses Of the County.
The commissioners can levy no
more than two and a half mills on
the dollar for the current expen-
SEES of the County. This is less
than half the amount which has
been levied in past years in def
anco of the law and will yield less
than half enough revenue to pay
the current expenses of the Coun-
ty until the new law reducing the
amount paid the sheriff for feed
ing prisoners goes into operation.
BY that time the claims against
the County will have swelled to
large proportions and it will re-
quire an act of the Legislature to
provide a way out of the difficulty.
Meantime the tax levies will be
considerably lighter than they
have been and taxpayers will not
be so heavily burdened with taxa
ton. OF course it will be a hard
ship on persons who have claims
against the County and many of
them will perhaps be obliged to
sell them at a large discount. The
state of affairs would not have
been so bad had it not been for
the passage of the law extending
the time for the payment Of taxes
by the late Legislature and making
half of the taxes of each year pay
able in January and half in July.
The law allowing taxes to be paid
in two equal installments is not a
bad one in itself but the extention
of the time for the payment of
taxes which should have been paid
last November until the first of
this month caused taxpayers to de-
lay the payment of their taxes
much longer than usual, in fact
about one-third of the taxes of last
year are still unpaid.

SOME of the brilliant editors in
the east are opposed to the free
coinage Of silver for the reason
hat such a law would give silver
miners employment and enrich
them. Let us see whether these
editors will let their teeth chatter

down around the zero point just to
keep the coal miners from getting
rich. Their case looks like a very
pronounced attack of dog in the

ton is not being dictated by the

The newspapers IN the east
which have been contending that
silver could be produced for 40 cts.
an ounce or less are as silent as
oysters about the cost of produc-
ing silver now. Since it has been
demonstrated hat more than nine
tenths of the silver mines in the
country we're shut down when sill
yer fell below 20 cents an ounce
there is not much argument left in
support Of the statement that sill
yer could be produced in large
quantities at little more than half
this price. Mines which are opened
and are producing silver should
not be taken as the basis for COM
putting the cost Of the production
Of an ounce Of silver, but it has
been shown that the mines which
are opened and developed TO a
greater or less extent cannot pro
due silver at 20 cents an ounce.

In ONE of his speeches before
the international Monetary Con
ference last year, Mr.. A. Allard,
director of the Belgian mint, said,
in reference to the price of COM
modities: "The average price of
commodities in the world seems to
me to be quite comparable to the
scales with two scale pans, which
we sell in retail stores. On one pan
commodities, all things which are
exchanged, r weighed; the more
we put upon it the more it sinks,
and the moro prices fall. Upon
the other pan are heaped the gold
and silveT which the mines have
produced since the BEGINNING Of
the world. In the course of time
an equilibrium was established.
1t was marked by a little tongue
indicating the average value. In
1873 the original idea was started
of going to the pan which contain
ed the metal, and, what has never
happened before, the silver was
taken away on the ground that it
was not wanted. Immediately the
pan was lightened by half of its
load and it rose; but on the other
side the pan which contained all
the commodities fell. The result
was normal, elementary, and it
was foreseen that prices ought to
fall. Well, gentlemen, to reestab-
lish the equilibrium there are only
two means-either place silver on
the monetary pan, from which il
was taken in 1873, or Tighten the
commodity pan to balance it with
the proportion and quantity OF
money on the other pan; that is to
say, diminish exchanges, diminish
commerce, injure agriculture, re-
strict industry in proportion tc
the metal which you took away il
1873, or else reestablish silver il
its former function"

ALL that remains now for ex-

THIS is a bankers panic in every
sense of the word. 1t was brought
on by the bankers to force the gov
eminent to issue bonds to replen-
ish the stock of gold in the Uuited
States treasury. They succeeded
in reducing the free gold in the
treasury TO about S9O,0O0,OO0 and
thought that such alarm would be
created throughout the country
that Secretary Carlisle would is
sue bonds TO get gold to keep up
the reserve but he decided not TO
issue bonds and the treasury has
been gaining gold ever since this
decision was made pubic. The
bankers had made so much fuss
about the financial situation that
the people began to distrust them
and commenced TO withdraw their
money from deposit Failures COM
menced and these only increased
the distrust and more money was
withdrawn and it is being kept up.
The bankers are now reaping the
whirlwind as the legitimate fruit OF
their efforts to bring about the is
sue Of moro gold bonds and the de-
monetization Of silver. The bankers
deserve just what they r getting
and if they we're the only sufferers
there would DO little mourning out
side banking circles.

The Wall street statesmen who
were so confident a few weeks ago
that the Sherman law would be re-
pealed soon after the meeting of
congress, without the enactment
of any other silver legislation, are
not so confident now. They are
beginning to see that the senate
will be a stumbling block in the
way of such a scheme and are now
arguing that it is not right that
the silver producing states with
their small population should have
as large a representation in the
senate as the older states with a
larger population. The wisdom of
the founders of this government in
giving all the states the same rep
re|sentation IN the senate is quite
apparent now. The interests Of
the different sections of a country
as large as the United States are
necessarily different to a certain
degree and it would be hardly fair
for the senators and represent
atives from half a dozen of the
large states to control the legis-
lation of the country. As it is now
the state of Nevada has as much
to say in the senate as the state of
New York, while New York has
thirty four times the strength of
Nevada in the house. One branch
Of congress is a check on the other
and as long as they act in this way
there car be no legislation which
would be injurious to a majority
Of the states passed if the repre-
sentatives and senators vote for
the interests of the people whom
they represent. The senators
from the silver producing states
are not going to vote for the repeal
ofithe Sherman law without getting
something in its place as good OF
better than the law repealed and
with the support which they will
get from the other states they will
be able to defeat the repeal of the
Sherman law if the house does not
consent TO the passage of a free
coinage bill.
