Tom REED is pretty big man in Re-
publican congressional circles. He gives
il out cold that, in case Republicans con-
troll the next congress, they will not
touch the present tariff law until 1896 at
the latest. This is an admission that the Re-
publican party does not dare to carry out
its original program and again disturb
the whole business of the nation. It is
also direct stab at the Mckinley propo.
sition, and places the Republican organs
in New Mexico in q sad plight. All
along they have been contending that
Mr.. Catron should be sent to congress in
order that his vote forgetting that
delegate has no vote) could be used to
kill the Wilson law and re-enact the No
Kinley fraud. The Republican organs
will huve to dig up some better logic than
that before they can Dram Catrsnism
down many voter'' throats.

The Criminal Element Must Go.

So persistently has the criminal been
hunted down by the officers of our terri.
torial courts, and SO promptly has he
been arraigned and his case disposed of
that there is already apparent a steady
decrease in crime, while the thug and the
sanguinary bully and the assassin of po-
litical societies of the frontier now stand
in meek awe of law which formerly
they disdained as comedy unworthy of
an audience. This changed condition
means much for this territory's future,
for it will not only restore it to its place
among communities noted for law and
order, but it will do more to restore con-
fidence in the breast of the capitalist,
Danish fear from the mind of the home
seeker and bring into close relation our
scattered forces of civilization and re-
finement than decade of boom years
could possibly accomplish. We con-
gratulate our territorial judiciary on
this unhinching irmness. While it is in
the highest sense patriotism, it will also
prove the most effective missionary
agency in building up this terrltory's
broad and inviting dOmain.-Albuquer-
que Democrat.

The Rest Line East,

Is unquestionably the Burlington route.
In point of equipment, time and service
1t is conceded to be superior to all other
lines.
The fast vestibuled "fyer" leaving
Denver daily at p. M, reaches Chicago
at 8:2O a. m. and St. Louis at 1920 a. M,
the second morning, in ample time to
connect with all fast trains for the east
and south.
1t is also fact worth remembering
that the Burlington is the only line run
ming through trains over its own tracks
from Denver to Chicago and st. Louis
without change of any class of cars.

ticket agents, or address G. W. Vallery,
General Agent, 1889 Seventeenth street,

CITIZENS TAKE HEED,

The friends of good government, pro
gress and deoency in Santa Fe county are
warned now, and it is yet time, that they
will have themselves only to blame if
they permit any part of the Catronist
crowd to gain the day at the polls on
Tuesday next. Having their willing
tools on guard ana being in control of
the county canvassing board, the gang
sters feel equal to almost any emergency
that may arise to thwart the free will of
the people as expressed at the pools.
For this reason it is particularly essen
tial that the majority vote agans them
should be SO large as to leave no room
for haggling over the returns;. their de-
nuLcation should be 80 emphatic that
not even the most unscrupuous Catronist
would dare do ought than count the votes
in strict accordance with law.
Then, too, as regards the Democratic
legislative ticket, the people should pur-
sue like course, for otherwise there may
arise contest that would greatly en-
barrass the interests of this city and
county in the assembly. As is we'll known
to many, under the present partisan Re-
publican appsrtionment the Democrats
have heavy and most unreasonable odds
to contend with in every part of the ter
ritory, and at best it will require big
Democratic vote if fealty to the cause of
statehood and progress is to be shown by
the election of Democratic legislature.
Here in Santa Fe county where tho
Republican boss has held full sway, it has
generally been an easy matter, when the
vote was close, for the Catron element to
file contest and make it stick, no matter
how VIGOROUSLY fraudulent the claim,
both before the Republican county board
of oanvassers and the bogus Republican
majority which the existing apportion-
ment has given to the legislature.
On this account it is absolutely necss-
sary that such towering majority be
given the Dem ooratio ticket next week
as to leave no question on the result of
the defeat of Catronism.

Republicans and Silver.

The Republicans are bowling about
free silver trade in order to drown the
cries Of the masses for free silver. The
following from the Philadelphia Press, q
leading Republican paper, shows the po-
sition of that party on the leading ques-
ton of the day: "Senator John p. Jones
has done the Republican party the best
service he could by leaving it. He pre-
sents the determination to secure the
free coinage of silver at silver standard,
with all their dangers. The Republican
party never has favored this and never
will favor it. 1t stands as it always has,
for honest money and currency equal
in all its parts and issues to gold."-San
Juan Times.
