the SALARY QUESTION.

Senator T. D. Burns is chairman of the
council nmittee appointed for the pur-
pose of establishing system of salaries
for territorial and county officials. He is
the right man for the place; he is in
timately acquainted with the duties and
Importance of the several Offices and can
be relied upon to prepare and submit a
fair and just salary bill; something must
be done in that line; the salaries OF the
several territorial and county officials
should be arranged SO as to give them
liberal compensation commensurate with
the duties and responsibilities of their Of
fees and to cut off useless and exorbitant
expense. If the Both Legislative assembly
will pass a just and decent salary bill it
will deserve the thanks of the people.
Let us hope that such will be the case.

DEVELOPING AN EMPIRE.

The rush into the San Juan river
placers continues despite the rigors of
mid-winter and the cold, frosty, snow
covered mountains of Colorado are send
ing hundreds of fortune hunters to the
new gold fields. Latest reports would
seem to indicate that gold in paying
Antilles really exists there. San Juan
county, New Mexico, is likely to be greatly
benefited by this find. The energetic and
shrewd Otto Mears is developing plans
to extend his Rio Grande Southern rail-
road across northwestern New Mexico to
the scene of the excitement in Utah, and
should this plan be carried out it will
result in rapid development of very
rich section of country which comprises
northwest New Mexico, northern Arizona
and southeastern Utah.
An empire of undeveloped riches lies
in that locality, and it is not placer gold
alone that makes it attractive, but there
are gold and silver bearing ledses in the
mountains; probably the largest and

President Chaves.

As everyone expected Col. J. Francisco
Chaves, ct Valencia county, was elected
president of the council. Our Democrat
ic friends allude to him as the standing
chairman of Republican councils and
convention; but none question his ability
as presiding office. He is fair to all
parties and is able to handle a delibera-
tive body as few men can. His long
legislative experience both in congress
and in the territorial legislation make
his election an eminently proper one; not
only from a political standpoint, but
from a business stand-point-the council
will accomplish more with an experienced
presiding officer.-San Marcial Reporter.

The Division Of COlfax County.

The county division matter will be
among the first efforts made by Colfax
county's representatives in the legislature.
By the vote of the people in November
Colfax county decided in favor of cutting
the county in two in as many different
directions, and this portion of the county
was in it as much as Clayton and Ration
were. That being the case the bills to be
introduced creating new counties east and
north of Springer will have no opposition
in the territorial Legislature and Colfax
county will be cut down to small proper
tons. The people have said so by their
votes in electing Valverde and Bland
Springer Stockman.

The New MEXICAN favors liberal sup
port of the public schools, but it does
not favor the abridgement of the elective
franchise b., requiring the payment of a
poll tax preparatory to voting. This
provision has just been tried and found
sadly wanting; SO far it has proven per-
nicious and evil measure and has aided
in corrupting the voters of New Mexico;

The Fee System.

Several of our contemporaries of the
territory have published editorials de-
nouncing the fee system for the payment
of public officers for their services.
That the compensation of officers in
two or three counties of New Mexico is
excessively large for the service per-
formed we do not doubt, and possibly in
all, the fees for one class of service re
out of proportion to those allowed \
present statutes for services of di
nature.
That the present laws shoul
formed and improved, there see 20 be
little ground for question. Butt that any
system which substitutes salaries for
fees, as applied to large class of public
offices, would correct the faults or better
adapt itself to the public requirements,
is question which is not SO easily
solved.
To attempt to adjust compensation, of
officers on the basis of wealth or popula-
ton, as is suggested by some, could not
accomplish the object sought, because at
times in counties of lesser population,
there would necessarily be, largely
increased official duties for which
the salary arbitrarily fixed by
law, would not be an adequate
compensation. On the other hand in
populous counties salary based on large
volumes of business in public offices,
would be found to over pay the incum-
bents for the work required of them,
where such work had fallen below the
amount upon which the salary was based,
which would in many cases, be the situa-
ton. No fixed salary could be made for
many offices which would be alike just to
the public and the officers. These COM
pensations should be flexible and bear
some relation to the actual service be-
slowed.
We believe that the fee system adjusted
to our conditions, as it may be, is prefer
able to one of salaries for most of our
county and precinct officers. 1t gives the
officer fair compensation for what ser
vice he actually performs and nothing
more, while the salary plan bestows on
him stated sum, whether he earLs it
or not.-White Oaks Eagle.

Ex.GOv. Ross and Statehood.

The Headlight comes out squarely
against statehood until some of the
"existing conditions" are removed. This
reason is somewhat vague. Ash. seems
to be afraid that our country would not
prosper under statehood, or that he and
and Gov. Ross would not be as prominent
in matters political as they now are.-

she had been drowned. But Capt PARKS
was not satisfied, aud a year later visitor
the island and made another search.
Here is the testimony of Higgins, VINO

CHAPTER VIII.
AFTER THE PLAY.

In the coy, well-lighted and prettily dec
GRATED vestibule of the Theater Royal. a
wel-dressed crowd of gentlemen and ladies
were standing about taking leave Of each
other ere they sought their carriages and
handsoms to be driven home.
Conspicuous among the mushroom gem
tility of Earlsford were Sir Sydney Cars
land, Lady Carsland. and their handsome
daughter. Around them pressed mayor
and mayoress, aldermen and councillors,
local lawyers, doctors, aud their women
folk, all acknowledgement even-an
glad of smile or nod or word from the
baronet and his family.
Her ladyship was stately gracious. Cor
della was Jolly charming, while Sir Sydney
was unwontedly amiable even for him,
being in the very best of humors. His wor-
ship, and his worship's intimate friends had
obtained a promise from the barouet that
be would accompany them to their club
after the play and sup with them, and
they were waiting now until Sir Sydney
took leave of his wife and daughter.
Presently Lady Carsland remarked:
Had we not better be going, Sydney;
The carriage is waiting
20. certainly, Adelaide the baronet re.
sponded, II forgot to tell you that I and
Paul have promised to take supper with
our worthy friend, the mayor here, and
these gentlemen. You and Cordelia can
take the carriage, aud l and Meredith can
engage q hsnsom."
Her lsdyship's brows bent themselves for
the smallest fraction Of a second, but
cleared again Immediately, and her ready
answer was urbane enough.
Then in that case !" she said, 81 shall ask
Mrs. and Miss Farrington-the mayors
wife and daughter-to share the carriage
! with me and Cordelia. We can easily put
them down at their villa which is on our
way home, you know. We shall be com
psny for each other while our lords and
masters are enjoying themselves at the club.
| What do you say, Mrs. FarringtonP'
OF course Mrs. Harrington had only one
answer to make to Lady Cars.aud's ques-
/ tioa. She answered very readily and
