During the past week cotton
reached the unprecedented low fig
ure in New Orleans of SIC for
middling, but it has recovered
somewhat and is now quoted at SIC.
The Internal intention of the Re-
publican money power to rule or
ruin may be seen in this condition
of things. All of its hellish ener-
gies are at work to break the Dem
ocratic power in Congress, and it
cares little how it is accomplished
whether by the sugar planters
greed, the fallacies of the Popu-
lists, or the election of their own
party pets = It is all the same to
them. This explains where the
money comes from to pay the ex-
penses of the lecturing tours of
Major Cox, Vincent and others.

We call special attention to the
communication from Judge w. L.
Richardson, relative to the contro-
versy about his salary, etc. As usual,
he is slow with his showing, but it
is better than most persons have
been led to believe. The Judge
may be q little slow and "poky" in
his ways,and occasionally a bit arbi-
trary in his rulings, but be is sell
dom very far wrong; and, consid-
ering his attainments, he has made
us an exceptionally good parish
superintendent. 1t therefore seems
harsh and little unjust for the
board to stigmatize him for matters
they have allowed to go on for two
years. And, even if they had dis
covered and disapproved his claims
as paid, it is very likely they would
have been allowed upon the very
items the Judge has enumerated.
If public interest demands his dis
missal, well and good, but there is
little or no cause for elimination
and defamation of character.

The Lordsburg Killing.

Attorneys Frank Cox and Frank
Heney came in from LOrdsburg last
night, where they had gone to appear ct
the hearing of f. S. Deal. the brake
man who shot and killed d tramp at that
place on Tuesday last.
The examination took place before
Justice McGrath aud resulted in MIR.
Deal being held to bail in the sum of
5000, which was given and he vas re-
leased.
From the testimony OF his fellow en-
ployees IL aDoears that the tramp who
was killed drew revolver and threat
ened to shoot Conductor HIT for put
ting him off the train. The latter CALI
ed for assistance, when Deal came out
of the car and shot with the results
noted. The testimony showed That the
tramp, who gave his name as Michael
Mcmillan. of Miles. Michigan, had hold
of the guard rail of the car with his left
hand and was moving with the train.
covering Hit with revolver at the
time Deal fred the fatal shot, which
lodged in the right side towards the
back.
A number of tramps, however, testi-
tied that Mcmillan had quit and was
walking away whom killed, and further
that he bad no revolver at the time be
was killed. But this was contradicted
by Judge Titus and DR.. Small, who tee-
titled to having seen a tramp approach
the fallen man and take his revolver
away from him. This was corroborated
10y other witnesses. In addition there
to doctor from Deming recognized the
dead man as the party who had stolen
a revolver from him the day previous.
So there can be no doubt but that he
was armed and the killing Justifiable.
The examination Of the tramp wit
nesses reads like a romance. 1t demon
strated that tramping is a science, pro-
fession, a business. The men had been
verywhere, belonged everywhere, seen
everything and done everything but
work. Ore testified that he had been
put off the train twenty times between
Stockton, Cal, and Los Angeles. Five
of them were bound over to appear at
the trial in the sum of 5000, and were
taken to the Silver City Jail in default
thereof.

were turned up considerable by the

river that he has been murdered by
Indians.

have reported it; this one they have
not, although it must have come to
