Obeying the Regulations.

A west-bOund train on the Fitchburg railroad had just drawn out of AthOl not long ago, says an exchange, and as the conductor entered one of the cars he found among the new passengers young man respectfully dressed, and ap- parently of ordinary intelligence. The conductor halted to take up the young man fare, and the latter handed him a ticket to Miller's Falls, and with it a cent. For a moment the conductor suspected joke, but a look at the pas senger's face convinced him to the con- trary. "'IYhat is this cent for?'' the conductor asked. Why, I see," an swered the young fellow, 'that the ticket isn't good unless it is stamped, and as I don't happen to have a stamp with me, give you the cent instead. You can put it on, can't you?" The good-natured conductor handed back coin with a smile, remarking that it was small matter and he would see that it was all right.

A FREE PRESS.

The freedom of the press is a fair test of the freedom of government. Wherever government is arbitrary it objects to criticism, and under such a government there is very little freedom for the press.
 If the aim of the government is to ee- cure the welfare of the people it should not restrict the liberty of the press; for however good the intentions of the government of today may be, one which succeeds it, may aim rather at the per petuation of the authority of the rulers that at the happiness and welfare of the people. President Diaz of Mexico is making the blunder in suppressing the opposition press in that country. It is said that nearly 100 papers winch are opposed to him have been compelled to suspend publication.
 President Diaz has done a great deal for the advancement of Mexico-more than, with the exception of Juarez. all his predecessors put together, He has been opposed by the reactionary element, which undoubtedly values the freedom of the press only when its own papers are concerned, and there has been much to aggravate him. He wishes to continue the work of develop ing the resources of the country, and he feels that the opposition press is an obstacle in the way of this much to-be- desired advancement, Undoubtedly the opposition interferes with the pro- gress of the country, but nevertheless the publishers of those papers should be given full liberty to critIcise the government and any of its officers ip their official capacity.
 No country can be free where there is not free public opinion, and there can hardly be any expression of public opinion where the press is muzzled. If in Mexico the opposition press were allowed full liberty public opinion would more rapidly become enlightened Men would then venture to make re- forms in the government through con- stitutional means, and in the end the progressive policy of President Diaz would become all the more fully estab- lished in consequence of this latitude. But it is hard for men who possess power to brook criticism. They are prone to try to force their vIews upon others and to punish those who in print or by speech hold them up to condemnation or criticism.

THRIFTY NAVAL OFFICERS.
Secretary Herbert Will Grant Them
 No More Leave of Absence.

WASHINGTON, D. O., May 9.-Secre- tary Herbert has suthoriz d the state ment that he will decline to extend leaves of absence to any officer of the nevy who is engaged in private business.
 He will not interfere with the orders of his predecessors but will grant 70 new leaves of this kind and will call in all those already granted, at the expira- tiOn of terms assigned them.
 The secretary says he does not think it right that an officer educated by the government should be permitted from prIyate advantage to utilize his knOwl- edge and experience against the govern ment at the same time remaining on its pay roll.
 This decision refers to officers on leave who are employed by private firms. those on featuring tours and those employ q in private capacities at the Worlds Fair.

| FoRT LOWELL military reservation should be converted into an IHdian Ih- dustrial training schOOl.-Star.
 Such sentiment is rot of the worst
 kind and does not become its endOrsers. The Fort Lowell reservation, now DO
 longer in use by the military, should be l opened to public settlement. It is one of the cholce bits of agricultural land
 ID Pima county upon which hundred American citizens, with their families are anxlous to find homes, and it is detestable sentiment that would take it from them and give it to the most worthless race of vagabond5 there is. Are the Indians suffering for anything that they should at all times stand ss preferred creditors to the government and be awarded preference over our own citizens? Not much. Such senti- ment Can find no favor with Arizonans, who loves his own people and race better than he does renegade Apache. The Indians already have one industrial training school and we fail to See tie necessities for another. The present institution has, we believe, been con- ducted with as much success as such institutions can be, but the millenium in Indian industrial training has not been reached. Prof. Billman is an ex- perienced educator and to his indefati- gable labor may be aseribed whatever success the present school may point to, but to the most observsnt the result has not been such as to warrant the turning over of the Lowell reservation to the Indians. The measure is a perni- cious one. It is i'll advised and contrary to the interests of Pima county and it's

THE Socorro, New Mexico, ChIeftain in its last issue contains a well written editorial advising that legal steps be taken by the authorities of New Mexico. Texas and old Mexico to restrain the Colorado ditch com panies from exhaust ing the water of the Rio Grande that for over three centuries have been used by the citizens of the lower valley to raise crops for the support of their families.
 When the Bullion was published in the Gem City it occupied the same position upon this subj ct now taken by Chiettain. We join the Chieftain in its suggestion. All the journals in the southwest should come to the assistance of the Chieftain in this matter.
 The question of a water supply for this valley is only second in importance to the silver question. The people of Fl Paso and the valley heartily endorse the words of the Chieftain and will pay their share of the expenses incurred in tLe suit, if one is instituted.
 Seven years ago the writer, in connec- tion with 8 few others, took initiatory steps to secure judicial recognition of the ri hts of those who lived upon the banks of the Rio Grande to enjoy the use of its waters. Among those who were interested in the subject we re- member Hon. J. Francisco Chavee, who is emibently qualified at this moment to render the inhabitants of tbe valley material assistance by his council and lifelong experience.-El Paso Bullion.

Meade is an excep- tionally clean-handed man and whether in public office or private life, is always the same courteous gentleman. He was marshal during the Wham trial, but the Democrat ring could not use him nor could they pull him down because he refused to be their tool, neither could they stop hIs reappointment although they broke their backs in trying to pre- vent it. His sppo n5ment, when an ap- pointment had to be made, finds favor with al lav-abiding citizens regardless of party politics. No higher testimony can be offered any man.

THE SILVER CITY SILVER CON
 VENTION,

The silver convention which is to be held here on the 4th and 5th of July is being fayorably talked about by mining men and men who are interested in the silver question all over the southwest, The continued low price of silver makes It necessary for something to be done. The siver interest is the backbone and support of the interests of:States and Terr tories occupying more than one-third of the entire area of the United States and when an interest of such great impor- tance as this suffers it is not difficult to see that hard times must necessarily follow. The only remedy is to bring silver to its former and rIghtful value and can only be done by passing free coinage law, The object of the silver convention is to assist in bringing about such result and every resident of the southwest is interested in it. The desired result can not be obtained with out agitation and it is to get the ideas of the leading silver advocates that the convention has been called. A deeper interest is now being taken in the matter than has ever been mani tested before and it is more than pro bable that the attendance will be much larger at the coming convention that at either of thesprevious ones, and that more will be done for the cause of silver than has even been accomplished iD 5hIs manner before, A united effort is 0ecessary and this now seems to be assured.-Silver City Sentinel.

Not Suicide But Accident.

SAN FRANCIsco, Cal, May 1O.-A later investigation into the cause of the death of w. J.

It is beiieved;that Morgan while arranging his apparel was in the act of changing a pistol from the rear pocket in his traOusers to the breast of his coat when the weapon exploded sending a bullet through his heart.

PENSION THIEF. Plan of Operations of a Dis
 graCed Lawyer.
NOTARY'S NAME FORGED.
Secured Thousands of Dollars in the Name of Illiterate
 Negroes.

WASHINGTON, May 10.-The Pension Department has unearthed what ap- pears to be a series of gross frauds in pensions by w, R. Drewey, a pension attorney of Norfolk, Va, who is now under arrest. A year ago he was dis covered in fraud and debarred from practicing in pension cases. The inves- tigstiou shows he has had pensions granted mostly to illiterate negroes and that 9S per cent. of them are fraudu lent, the notary's name and seal being forged. The extent of these frauds may be bettsr appreciated when it is stated hat all pensions secured by means of these frauds will probably reach S100,O0O.
