health. We assert that the times
Of prosperity referred to were
healthy times; were times of JEFF
fersonian Democracy, pure and UNI
de6led, and we regret very much
that they faded away, 1--WE mean
the times,) the principles can never
fade away.
We advise, REMOVE THE CAUSE,
uNLEGIsLATE, ECONOMIC. Do away
with all fraudulent pension claims;
endorse Hon. Dockry'8 every act.
Don'tappreciatc so lavishly-really
learn to don't" little. Remember
that the money in the treasury was
paid in by the people, and should
belong to the people, for they only
obtain value received therefor in an
economical, judicious and impair
tial use of the same. Don't spend
this money for the advancement Of
the interests of any individual, any
corporation, any protected interest
nor protection association or trust,
they only protect themselves. Don't
spend any of this money to the
detriment of the interest or in
terests of the majority of the peo-
pie of the United States. Do in
high places what we are now COM
PEELED to do in our private avoca-
tons. Reduce expenses. Don't
legislate in favor of any section of
these United states. Let north, east
south and west benefit equally by
every legislative enactment, and
the expenditure of every dollar.
Give us government for. of and by
the people. Our senators and con-
gressmen are but our special agents.
Economic in every branch of our
government, consistent with the
maintenance of a pure and stable
form of government. Give US
Wholesale legislation, looking to
the maintenance of both gold and
silver as money metals OF this gov
eminent practicable with a per-
manancy for the longest period Of
time possible, Don't legislate too
much in favor of national banks
nor any institution Of private in
terests, or Governmental co-opera'
ton, whic' still more enrich the
rich and still more impoverishes
the poor.
Do we need revised or amended
protection laws? Not so much
What we really think better than
this is no tariff laws. To be sure
we are in toto in favor of tariff for
revenue only, to the extent Of sup
porting a government just and
economically administered. But
no law is better than the Mckinley
law. We believe in free trade al
far as consistent with our whole
some support. Give us graduated
income tax. Let capital and prop
erty assist in paying for its pro
lection and the support of the gov
eminent. Who has dictated anC
dominated the national Legislation
for the last twenty years? Money
and monied interests. Now let the
people dictate for period. l meal
the collective interests of the mas
ses of the citizens of the United
States of America. Not the word
: of their mouths.nor the sentiments
nor influences of fanatics nor com
munists. Encourage and promot

tries. Don't let ourselves be dicta

and industrial progress, time of
democratic government and rule;
a time Of unity Of legislation, of
sentiments and operations; n time
of free coinage of both gold and
silver; neither demonetized for the
benefit of the other; no great fear of
supremacy of either metal; no in
ternal talk of the maintenance of
the parity of the two metals, nor
charge for mintage. No issuance
OF U. s. treasury notes to buy silver
bullion and to be redeemed in gold.
Had we then heavy yield of gold?
Yes. In 1S4S California showed
up her resources in that direction,
and gold just flowed into the
country and was coined free and
no one hurt thereby,nor was it de-
monetized to protect silver. Did
this continue? No. Silver mining
increased until 1878. 1t was equal
in quantity to gold. What was the
result? The republican party de-
monetized silver. Had we during
that period any billion dollar con-
gress? No. Had we then IL depleted
treasury? No Had we during
that period an increase in agricul-
tural and manufacturing pursuits?
Yes. Had we then an enhance
a., ,nent inform and real estate val
tues? Yes. Did diversity of in
terests then exist and continually
grow upon us2 Yes. Was our
merchant marine then growing, the
U. S. flag unfurled to the breeze
and floating above the waters of
every sea? Yes, practically they
were. Had we then a tariff law?
Yes, the Walker tariff for revenue
strictly, and which was practically
equal to free trade. What was the
price of wool then? Please answer.
Had we state banks9 Yes, and
they were a benefit to the people
Had we then national banks? No.
We do not insist, howeverthat state
banks are absolutely essential, nor
do we assert that Their. is no good
in national banks. We are little
reluctant to commit ourselves on
this financial question, which is
both deep, intricate and perplexing;
and not political one, We only
mention these as facts as existing
during times OF peace and plenty
the one, and time of great unrest,
anxiety and want the other.
Were there great, moving, living
petitions travelling this continent
enroute to the seat of national
legislation III great armies, demand
ing some ameliorating enactments
in behalf of the hungry people, and
continual complaint of central
lied, corporated and protected cap
ital? No. What is the remedy?
We have stated that the cause
was faulty and impartial legisla-
ton. Shall we then attempt to
remedy this cause by creating more
and probably other false laws? No
Two evils never make right, MOI
correct one wrong. A practical in
ference is that if we could unlegis'
late while, we might to some
good. AS physicians, we think

DUST TO DUST.
The Bruised and Lacerated Body OF
Little Jack Downing Commit
ted to the Grave.

1t becomes the mournful duty of the
New MEXICAN this evening to print the
concluding chapter in the heart-rending
story of the disappearance and discovery
of dear little Jack Downing. The sturdy,
brave and beautiful little man was ten
derly committed to the dreamless slumber
of the grave in San Rosario cemetery at
o'clock yesterday afternoon.
The solemn funeral services occurred
at the home of Mr.. and Mrs. Downing in
the Gallegos block soon after 2 O'Clock.
They we're impressively conducted by
Father Antonio Fourchegu, vicar general
of this diocese, assisted by Father Bal
land. Hundreds of people attended and
the countless eyes suffused with tears
eloa uently testified to the unspeakable
sym pathy felt for the heart-broken parents.
Nearly every carriage in the city followed
the little body to the grave and many
went on foot.
The 10th infantry band volunteered to
furnish the music and the soldiers of
Fort Marcy, nearly all of whom per-
sonally knew little Jack, turned out in a
body dercommand of Sergeants Clarity
and Russell.
The floral tributes we're probably the
most numerous, fragrant and exquisite
ever seen at funeral in Santa Fe.
Lying peacefully in his tiny white casket
the little lad seemed to be sleeping In a
bed of sweet flowers. Among those who
contributed the profusion of floral
crosses, wreathes, baskets, bouquets and
loose flowers were Gov. and Mrs. Thorn
ton, Secretary and Mrs. Miller, Mr.. and
Mrs. Boyle, Miss Gulliford, Mr. and Mrs
Shannon, Mrs. and Miss Marsh, the Misses
Keller, Mr.. and Mrs. Piersol, Mrs. Ilfeld
Mr.. Zumwalt, and many others. A lovely
pillow of tea roses with the name sack
in jacqueminot roses in the center was
Contributed by the searchers."
Mrs. Downing was too much FRUSTRATED
to witness the ceremonies or go to the
grave. She is still hardly able to sit up
God only can soothe and comfort these
sorely afflicted parents.

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
wishing to renew their subscriptions.
2. If subscribers order the dlscon-
tnuance of their periodicals, the publish
er may continue sending them until all
arrearages are paid.
3. If subscribers neglect or refuse to
take their periodicals from the postoffice
to which they are directed, they are res
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.
5. 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.
9. 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 ia
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 postal card
sent notifying the publisher, lays himself
liable to arrest and fine, the same as for

DISTRICT COURT.
Injunction in the COchiti Ferry Case
Denied-Grand Jury at Work.

The motion to make permanent the in
junction restraining Messrs. Hunt, ct al,
from operating ferry across the Rio
Grande In opposition to Col. Moore and
Secretary Miller, was argued before Judge
Seeds late Saturday evening. Charles A,
spiess supported the motion aad Judge
W. D. Lee opposed. The point urged
in favor of the motion was that the Rio
Grande was the private property of the
Indians at Cochiti, and that the Hunts
not having acquired permission to oper-
ate ferry there, were trespassers. The
Judge denied the motion, or rather re-
fused to take jurisdiction, contending
that the question should be decided in a
court of law rather than in court OF
chancery.
The trial of cause entitled the U. s.
VS.. Joseph Rutledge, charged with I'M
lawfully cutting timber on the Pecos
reservation, occupied the U. s. district
court all the forenoon and was resumed
at 2 p. m.
