Doubt of His Guilt.

ATLANTA, Ga, Sept. 1l.-An execu-

Will Dutton, a Barlow county negro,
brings out a highly sensational story.
The negro was to have hanged next

people having since been arrested for
the same crime, and that the respite is
granted in order that the charges can
be investigated.

that William Mawhor poisoned his
wife, near Riverton. This was Nav
hor's fifth wife, the other four having
died rather suddenly. which led to the
belief that he had poisoned them to get
insurance money. The most interest

There has been connected with this
paper for some time past, one H. Robert
V. Richardson, in the capacity of printer,
who finally assumed the position of ed
itor and manager. AS a printer he was
all right, but as soon as the dignity of
sole proprietor fell upon him the pro-
portion of his Uranium swelled to an un-
due extent, Last week he folded his
tent and stole away, leaving not few
with an aching void to their pocket
books, and now there is tingling of
fingers, itching for handful of his cap
ilary. Not satisfied with "touching" his
over confident acquaintances, he filched
few dollars from the town, for which
he acted as clerk. His whereabouts are
unknown, but If he should chance to
come in the way Of few of our citizens,
they will make it exceedingly warm for
him. -Cerillos Rustler.

THE FALL OF CARTHAGE.

Within another week, the town OF
Carthage, once the busiest coal mining
camp in New Mexico, will have ceased
to exist. All the dwelling houses, coal
chutes and machinery have already been
removed. The place has practically
been RACED to the earth and the depot,
adobe hotel and Gross, Blackwell & Cos
store are about all that remain of what,
even in its palmiest days and hundreds
OF inhabitants, was never anything but
the most desolate and forlorn looking
spot in the Territory. The tracks will
soon be taken up as far as Fraley, where
are situated the largest lime kilns in New
Mexico, but it is not definitely known
how often trains will be run up from
San Antonio on the main line. Freight
for Lincoln county points will now be
unloaded at San Antonio which will
make the wagon haul about ten miles
farther than in the past. What dispo-
sition the company will make of W, e.
Palmer, for years past the popular
and efficient agent at Carthage and one
of the most capable employees in the SER
vice of the great Santa Fe system, is un-
known, but 1t is certain that his valuable
and extensive knowledge Of the COM
pany's business in this section will in
sure him lucrative situation not far

In his message, in stating the
necessity of the repeal of the Sher-
man act, President Cleveland says
that the capitalist can take care of
himself but expresses great solici-
tude for the poor working man.
Growers consistency on this point
seems to be a little off colored and
the sophistry of the majority of
his remarks is certainly disappoint-
ing. Has anyone heard of a single
labor organization petitioning the
president for a repeal of the Sher-
man lawP On the contrary, it is
a widely known fact that the
money sharks of Wall street have
for months been sending out cir
cular letters to newspapers, corpor-
ations and boards of trades, but
not TO the working man, urging
them to employ all possible means
to bring about the repeal of this
law. Not single appeal has gone
in from any body of organized
labor requesting repeal but the
demand for free coinage from
these bodies all over the country
has been both numerous and loud.
And now for the President to say
that the loboring man is the one
to be benefited by this repeal
without suggesting something ben.
efcial in its place, is the very
essence of buncombe.

Senator Vest, He's All Right

On Monday, Senator Vest called up
the resolutions of last Tuesday in favor
of the free and unlimited coinage of both
metals and addressed the senate. He
lIkened the Sherman law to homeless
dog; no one would give it bone and it
is without kennel to hide it's dishonest
head. The senator declared he would
not vote for the repeal OF the law with
out guarantee that substitute would
be passed providing for free coinage.
The speech created sensation although
it had been previously known that the
senator resented the course OF Cleve.
land and the under officials in trying to
crush silver.

The London STANDARD. in recent is.
sue, in discussing the financial question,
asks two questions, the answers to which
are OF great Importance to England. 1t
asks: what il the United States joined
Mexico in declaring for free ooinage Of
silver, throwing over gold as too dear
What il the two American continents
held out the hand to farther Asia, and
said: Let US have the white metal for
our standardr Chill. now hard hit,

Piled states OF South America and Mexico
and japan aud China and Java-all that
mighty East which cares little for Simla
1t is a great danger, TO which the present
outburst of alarm and fear must not rem.
der us oblivious." There are two ways OF
bringing England to terms in regard to
the coinage Of silver. One is by reducing
the whole world outside OF England TO
condition OF financial stress and suffering
in the hope that England, being more or
less affected itself, would join in an il. .
ternational agreement for the restoration
Of silver. The other is for the United
States TO adopt bi.metalism suffering
the country TO drift to the silver basis II,
peradyenture. II we're unavoidable. The
recognition ofsilver by the United States
would turn the commerce Of Latin
America and OF the Oriont TO this
country taking il away from England.
This would place England in the cate.
CORY OF the sufferer, and English mer.
chants and manufacturers, seeing their
trade slipping away from them. would
instantly make a great clamor for bi
metallisni. The position OF the United
States is too strong for II 10 play the

When it comes to enterprise the

EDITORIAL COMMENT.
IN SERIOUS STRAITS.

New York's financial institutions
are tottering on the brink of an
abyss wrought of their own avar-
ice and stupidity.
It's national banks now contain
only about ten per cent. instead Of
twenty-five per cent. of their actual
deposits as required by law, and,
in their efforts to bolster up their
shortages to tide them over the
breakers created by the contrac-
ton of our circulating medium,
have resorted to the issuance of
clearing house certificates, or
promises to pay" in the settle
ment of accounts held against
them by outside banks. The dis
trust which this policy has engen-
dered is evidenced by the follow
ing circular letter issued by the
Springfield Mass F. & M. Ins.
Co, to their agents:
Chicago. Aug. II, 1893.
ITO Our AGENTs:-As you have pro-
badly learned through the newspapers,
it is at present impossible to use New
York drafts in this city for the reason
that they are paid in clearing house GER
tifcates instead Of currency of the realm.
To put it iu Shakesperean language "the
cloud which hovers over the House of
York seems to have neither situer lin
ing or green back" We hope that the
present condition may be brief, but from
a business standpoint you will readily
see the necessity OF remitting us in some
other form than New York exchange"
From this circular it appears
that the banks of New York-the
sticklers for "honest money"-are
actually repudiating their indebt-
edness and are practically closed
to Legitimate business.
The country is in a condition of
financial starvation, and the So
called doctors, the great and wise
financeers of New York are advis-
ing as a relief from this isstarvation,
the destruction of one-half the
food now available to the starving
patient. If the country listens
further to the advice of such
quacks it deserves to starve.

THE large imports of gold from
England recently, have passed
Wall street by and been received
by saving banks and business
houses in the interior cities. The
spectators are not getting this
gold, but instead it is going into
the pockets of the common people
in return for commodities exported.

IT is notable that banks which
offer to pay the largest interest on
deposits are usually among the
first to suspend payment when
financial furry comes along. Big
risk always goes with big interest.
