Newspaper Subscription List.

Few readers or publishers of papers
fully and clearly understand the laws gov
erning subscriptions. The decision of
the United States court is:
l. Subscribers who do not give express
orders to the contrary are considered as
wishing to renew their subscriptions.
2. If subcribers order the dlscon-
tinuance of their periodicals, the publish
er may continue sending them until all
arrearages are paid.
8. If subscribers neglect or refuse to
take their periodicals from the postof6ce
to which they are directed, they are reg
ponsible until they have settled bills and
ordered them discontinued,
4. If subscribers move to other places
without informing the publishers and the
papers are sent to the former address
they are held responsible.
S. The courts have decided that refus-
ing to take periodicals from the Office or
removing and leaving them uncalled for,
is prima facie evidence of Intentional
fraud.
6. If subscribers pay in advance, they
are bound to give notice at the end of
the time if they do not wish to continue
taking it, otherwise the publisher is
authorized to send it and the subscriber
will be. responsible until an express
notice with payment of all arrearages is
sent to the publisher. ...
The latest postal laws are such that
newspaper publishers can arrest any one
for fraud who takes paper and refuses
to pay for it. Under this law the man
who allows his subscription to run along
for sometime unpaid, and then orders it
discontinued, or orders the postmaster to
mark it ''refused" and has a postal card
sent notifying the publisher, lays himself
liable to arrest and fine, the same as for
theft.

SUMMER INSTITUTES.
A Circular of Deep Interest to the
Teachers of New Mexico.

The territorial board of education, of
which Gov. Thornton is ex-officio presi-
dent, and Superintendent Amado Chaves
is ex-offcio secretary, has issued cir
cular announcing that arrangements have
been perfected for holding teachers nor
NAL institutes as follows:
At Los Lunas.-Beginning Monday,
June 4, 1894. Conductor, Prof. John j.
Craven; assistant, Miss Leah Deutschland.
At Manufacturing Monday, June 4,
1894. Conductor, Miss E. M. Winston;

At Taos.-Beginning Monday, June II,
1894. Conductor, Prof. W. M. Adair.

The object of these summer institutes
is to make good teachers better teachers

Mr.. Weltmer is to-day moving his large

Ed Andrews left here on his bicycle at
30 O'Clock on Saturday and rode to the
Red house on the Peccs river by 5o'cock,
distance of thirty-three miles. He
caught thirtyfye trout and returned at
noon to-day, wheeling it in from Glorieta
in a little over two hours.
1t appears that the New MEXICAN made
mistake in announcing that j. W. Stin-
son and Chris. Sellman had arranged to
open sample and club rooms on the west
side of the plaza. Mr.. Stinson has rented
the place and will be sole proprietor.
Mrs. S. +. Raunhein, the beloved wife

CENTRAL NEW MEXICO.
Great Growth of Grass-Lamb Crop
Discovery of a New Gold Mine.

Mr.. L. A. Dow, the merchant, wool
buyer and ranchman of fatigue, valen-
cha county, is in Santa Fe buying goods.
In conversation with New MEXICAN re-
porter he said that the recent heavy rains
had given grass splendid start and that
cattle and sheep we're rapidly getting fat
on the ranges. He added that the spring
lamb crop was unusually large, fully
doubling the focks in his region. Some
of the wool has been marketed at from
TX to cents per pound.
Mr.. Dow and others have discovered
and are developing promising gold
prospect called the Montezuma, about six
miles from Gran Quivera, in Socorro
county. There are three veins being each
about three feet wide and the ore at
depth of fifteen feet runs $166.4O in gold
and $1.3S in silver. Two old mines have
been discovered in the snme vicinity.
Alarge spring of water in basin near
by, besides several strong veins about
six feet under ground, will afford water
for mill and also for much stock.
Samples of the Montezuma ore will
soon be shipped to Soccrro and Denver
for mill run tests,

DISTRICT COURT.
No Petit Jury Will Be Called in the
Territorial COurt-Gurule Con-
victed in L. S. Court.

Judge Seeds opened the territorial
branch of the district court at 10 o'clock
this morning. Six grand jurors were OBJ
tanned and special venire was issued to
complete the panel. The judge an
nounced that owing to the lack of funds,
no petit jury would be summoned and
that no business would be considered ex-
cept by the grand jury.
In the United States court the jury re-
turned a verdict of guilty against Juan
C. Gurule, charged with violating the
Edmunds act. Being sent back by the
court to report on special findings asked
by the defendants counsel, the jury
found that the defendants wife had been
absent from him for five years, but that
he did not believe her to be dead. No
sentence was announced.
A habeas corpus case from Taos county
is now being heard by Judge Seeds. 1t
appears that one Carl Los was arrested
and lodged in Jail at Taos last fall on the
charge of practicing medicine without a
license and also administering medicine
to woman with fatal results. He denies
the last charge and asks to be liberated.

ssBlessed be the Tie that Binds"

Ii there are any good, true. honest,
conscientious. scrupulous Republicans
in Mason County, they were included
among the delegates to the late con-
vention, and among the people who
sent them. We doubt if all these
good qualities can be found among the
handful of renegades and sore-heads,
who, in the Tribune's innocent sar-
casm, "turned their backs" on said
convention. If the bum will kindly
append the names of his so-called
good republicans, he would confer
lasting favor on the Republican party
of Mason County. 1t is case SINH
lar to that of the stubborn juryman
and his. eleven fool colleagues, THE
delegates from every one of the fifteen
precincts of Mason County, wanted a
"change," and these gentlemen were
set aside just as gently as possible
Still they kick, and go off chasing
strange and false gods. Every candl-
date on the Republican ticket is a
true republican from principle, the
one exception being reformed demo-
crat" of two years standing. They
are tax payers, good citizens and
would be credit to the intelligence
of the county.
A "ring" IN one political party is
not half so dangerous to the peoples
interests, as combination that gets
in it's insidious work, through all the
parties, and lines its purse at the ex-
pense of the blind or partizan tax
payer. There is ring behind the
Republican ticket, pretty big ring
OF forty-odd people, and they repre-
sented the combination known as the
Republican party of Mason County.
This ring hopes to secure it's reward
by protecting its interests as tax pay
ers. That is the only gain it can hope
to make, legitimately. 1t will fight
fair and work fair; it knows no other
tactics.

The Alaska Mining Season.

A disappointed lot of Alaskan min
erS are struggling back to civilization
after year Of hardships and misfor-
tunes, but we have not heard from any
OF the miners who made up the party
from this vicinity. About forty are
on the way back in small squads.
The season was very cold one and
miners were driven back to the coast
IN half starved condition. They
had no provision and no money, so
there was but one thing left for them
to do; get to Puget Sound or San
Francisco as quickly as possible.
Their number was divided into squads
four men each, and the squads were
assigned to the care. of different yes
sells of the patrol fleet. Most of these
poverty stricken miners are from
Forty Mile creek, where the best
placer diggings have been found.
Some men made q lot of money
there, but more came away in rags.
The season was so very short that the
men were able to use rockers only
months. The trading company at
Forty Mile, which operates line of
steamers up the Yukon river, from
st. Michaels, gave these 40 starving
prospectors transportation to Ouna-
laska rather than feed at Forty Mile
during the winter.
