OFFICIAL BUDGET.

A postoilice has been established at
Limitar, Socorro county, with Clemente
Castillo as postmaster.
Prof. Creager, of the Albuquerque In
dian school, has gone to Chicago to con-
fer with the superintendent of Indian
schools on business matters.
Hon. Robt Bland, of Ration, is candi-
date for the position of postoftice inspec-
tor, and is securing good endorsements
from this section for the position.
At meeting of the New Mexico cattle
sanitary commission the hide inspector, J.
a. Stinson, was removed and the appoint
ment of his successor was left to the presi-
dent and secretary. The pay of the two
inspectors in the north was cut down, and
this will probably lead to the resignation
of these officials.
1t was stated yesterday that but two
appeals had been received at tho COVER
nor's Office for the action of the terri
torial board of equalization which meets
on Monday; but 1T appears that most of
the appeals have been sent to members of
the board. From Sante Fe county the
appeals are five in number sent up by
Lowe & Suguling, Madalena Ortiz, Mrs.
Ilfeld, J. B. Lamy and VIM. M. Berger, as
agent for the Houghton lands. The law
provides that all appeals to this board
must be filed within five days of final &C.
tion by the county boards.

NO COMPROMISE.
Strong Resolutions Adopted at the
Great National silver Con-
yentiGn

CHICAGO, August 1.-THE resolutions
adopted at the national convention of BIZ
metallists declare that there must be no
comprise on the metal money question.
The preamble reviews the history of bi-
metalism for 5000 years and quotes ut
terances of Washington, Webster and
Blaine on the question. The resolutions
invite the bankers to attend to their
legitimate business and permit the rest
of the people to have their full share in
the control of the government, and in
substance read as follows:
"We suggest for the consideration of
our fellow citizens that the refusal of the
opponents of bi-metallism to propose any
crate any plan for tho future indicates
either an ignorance of our financial needs
or an unwillingness to take the public
into their confidence, and we denounce
the attempt to uncondionally repeal the
Sherman law as an attempt to secure gold
monometalism in fragrant violation of tho
| last national platform of all the political
parties.
"That while tho Sherman act of July
IA, 1890, was a device of the enemy to
prevent tho restoration of free coinage,
and is greatly Objectionable, because 1t
continues tho practical exclusion of silver
from the mints and reduces it from
| money metal to a commercial commodity,
nevertheless as its repeal, without the
restoration of free coinage would stop the
! expansion of our currency required by
our growth in population and business
and widen farther the difference between
the two precious metals, thus making the
return to bi-metallism moro difficult;
| greatly increase the purchasing power of
! gold, still further break down the price
| of the products Of the farmer and the
laborer, the mechanic and the tradesman,
and plunge still further all commerce,
business and industry into such depths
of wretchedness as to endanger peace,
order, the preservation of free insttu-
tions, and the very maintenance of civili-
zation, we, therefore, in the name of the
republic and of humanity, protest against
the repeal of the said act of July IA, 1890,
except by an act restoring free bi-metal-
lie coinage, as it existed prior to 1873.
We suggest that the maintenance of BIZ
metallism by the United States at the
ratio of 16 to l will increase our COM
merce with all the silver-using countries
of the world, covering two-thirds of the
world, without decreasing our commerce
with those nations"
