THE Las Vegas Optic and the Albuquerque Citizen want Congress to do one of two things-take New Mexico into the Union as a state or give the territory back to Mexico. The Citizen says the City of Mexi- co is nearer and more accessible than Washington and the interests of the people of the two Mexicos are more closely allied. Perhaps the above fact has something to do with keeping our adjoining terri tory out of the Union.

Agricultural Department, is now in Tucson engaged in procuring sta tistics concerning the development of that section of our Territory, for the information of his Bureau.

The EdmundS Act.

When the big bully of a United States of America descends in it's might upon poor little Mexican woman with five small children, who is struggling, with the service of her body, to fight off starvation, it is sight worthy of the gods-the fallen gods in Milton and Dante. Edmunds himself is vile enough, but he never intended his act to be prostituted to any such base uses, in order to enable federal officers to make their dirty fees. The miser- able prosecutions which have en- cumbered the United States Court Calendars of New Mexico for the past four years, rebound to the ev- erlasting disgrace of all persons concerned therein. Newspapers have been chary of comment, and the public does not realize the full horror and disgrace of the whole business. If the fees which the federal officers have thus grasped do not, sooner or later, bring disas- ter and ruin upon those they have enriched, then there is no God in IsraeI.-Santa Fe Gauntlet.

CARNEGIE, PRICK & Co.,, of the Homestead Mills have been com pelled to pay the Government $140.- 900 for their failure to maKe armor plates conforming to the specifca- sions of their contract with the Government. These armor plates were to be equal to the highest test imposed upon them by the naval authorities.
 It appears that the information was given to the Government rela- tive to the inferior quality of the armor plate delivered to the Naval Department by four former employ es of the Carnegie Steel Company They gave notice to the Govern ,ment that defective plate had been sent out and were paid for their ser vices.

A FARMER living near Toledo, O., has just lost $500 by the gold brick swindle. It doese seem very strange that people will continue to bite at this old bait. But when we call to mind the fact that one of our most sagacious Arizona lawyers, silyer-tongued Tom Fitch, took an ayaricious dive at the same tempt ing, but deceptive angle worm, we are not prepared to accuse the Ohio farmer with excessive verdancy, as that would be an indirect and cruel reflection upon home talent.

The Citizen was told last night of killing within sight of Fl Rito station, on the Atlantic and Pacific, the other day. A Mexican by the name of Miguel Chavez, was in the act of stealing a horse from a La guna Indian, when apprehended by the owner of the animal. The two men got to quarreling and as the Indian was about to leave with the horse for the village, Chavez delib- erately pulled out his revolver and shot the Indian dead. He escaped, and when our informant left Fl Rito he had not been arrested.-Albu- querque Citizen.

THE following spicy paragraphs are from The Republic, of St. Lou is, Missouri:
 The Cincinnati Enquirer reports that the annual income of Senator Brice as being not less than $S00,- 1000 year. How much more than that it is the Enquirer does not un- dertake to say, but the larger the income of Senator may be the more he is opposed to the nomina- tion of Senatorial candidates by party conventions.
 The newspaper men who went out in a tug called David B. Hill to meet President Cleveland on his re- turn to Washington should have been more considerate. The Presi- dent does not want to meet David either on the earth or the waters thereof.
 The Cincinnati Enquirer con tends that there is a great deal of politics left in the tariff question. There may be for Democrat who wants to go tothe Senate from Ono on a platform of protection to American industry.
 Senator Hill cannot make an ef- fort to keep a tariff on collars and cuffs and make an alliance with the shirt-tail Democracy of Texas at the same time. He can't Hogg things in any such way as that.
 Mir. Harrison's short speeches en route to California were enough like those he made in his front yard at Indianapolis in 1888 to justify the belief that history sometimes re- peats itself.
 Carl Schurz can never see the cor ruption of an administration until he is satisfied that he is going to remain outside of it. When he reaches that conclusion, however, he can see more than any one else.
 The returns of the town elections in Maine would seem to indicate that the Democrats kept away from the polls for fear of being counted under Reed rules to make quorum.
 Mir. Cleveland is back from the Dismal Swamp, which is more than it will be possible to say of great many men after the next fall cleo tions.
 Now that Mr, Cleveland has com menced killing bear, there may be trouble Bru'in for the Republican officeholders.

WE clip the folio wing items of interest from the Stock Grower and Farmer:
 Hides are not worth taking off, but boots and shoes are. Hides are on the free list, while boots and shoes are not. Meanetime the fool killer is wasting precious time. Cattlemen in Wyoming are excit- ed over an order authorizing Indi- ans to drive cattle off of private property. They say that driving the cattle through the snow will kill 5000 head.
 The only perceptible effect the re- cent cold spell had on New Mexico and Arizona cattle, was to insure good grass for them next spring, and thus enhance their selling val ue several per cent,
 pr. Snead, an experienced and intelligent Shropshire grower of Rochester, N. r., says that sheep can masticate any kind of grain much better than horse or COW can, and, he might have added, that they can bite the grass an inch deeper in the soil than a horse or COW, or any other animal that feeds on grass.
 A prominent wool-grower of Car bon County, Wyoming, relates a sad experience in the sheep busi- ness the past year, which is corrob- orated by hundreds of others in that state, During the summer he disposed of big bunch of sheep which netted $4,OOO. This was not all. After shearing he consigned his wool to a Boston commission firm, which advanced him six cents a pound on the consignment. Now the commission men have begun suit against him to recover $1 900, claiming they are short just that amount on the sale of the wool.
 A Chicago daily printed lately full account of how cattle afflicted with lumpy jaw were being slaught- cred and sold for food at the Union Stock Yards. There is no doubt of the fact that animals having this disease have been sold to local butchers and passed off upon the unsuspecting public as good beef. It is high time for a radical change and unless some prompt measure is introduced and there is a decid- ed reform, Chicago beef may lose it's prestige. The members of the live stock board are the ones to put stop to this unlawful and un- healthful traffic and they should act promptly and thoroughly.
 The following given as remedy for mares in foal having worms and indigestion: Give a half pint of linseed oil at night followed by half a pound Glauber salt, and half the quantity of common salt finely powdered, or dissolve in a pint of hot water mixed in bran mash in the morning, to which four ounces of powdered genuine IS added and we'll mixed Rye is dangerous food for mares in foal. Feed ground oats and bran, and but little hay thoroughly dusted and moistened. Add a tablespoonful of powdered genuine to every feed. Injections of bran tea in which a handful of common salt is dissolved will re- move worms from the rectum.
