SOME of the Republican papers

SOME of the Republican papers
are criticising the authorities for
pushing the prosecution of the
murderers of Frank Chaves at
Santa Fe while practically nothing
has been done toward bringing the
assassins of John Dougherty of
Mora county to justice. This crit
icism comes with i'll grace from
papers representing a party which
for years, through officials Repub-
lican in politics and the influence
of men high in leadership in
that party in the Territory, sup
pressed or defeated every attempt
to bring the conspirators who slew
Chaves to light and topunishment,
1t was not until the local authori-
ties were chosen from the Demo-
cratic party that the work of retri-
button was begun, and now the
reason for the course of the former
authorities is apparent-the das.
tardly crime lay too near the doors
of some eminent in the party syn.
agogle. When the authorities oi
Mora county have delayed as long
as the Santa Fe officials did without
acting there will be time to crit
icise and charge the prosecution tc

$500 REWARD
FOR ORE THlEVESi

The common experience of this
camp shows that much is lost by
the mine operators by the stealing
ofgold in specimens, if not in
amalgam and bullion. Therefore
the "OM Abe" Co. offers a stand
ing reward of Three Hundred Dol
lars for the arrest and conviction,
or for information leading to the
arrest and conviction of any person
guilty of stealing any of the prop
erty of the Old Abe Co., even the
small ,st specimen of ore. The rule
of this company is to mill all spe-
cimens. Therefore none of the ore
from this mine can be honestly
held as specimens. And as the re-
ceiver, with guilty knowledge, is rs
guilty in law as the thief, this Of
fer applies to the holders of Old Abe
specimens.

FEDERAL interference with cleo
tions in the south is a thing of the
past, and now the people of that
section will align themselves with
the party whose policy may seem
to be most favorable to the inter
csts of that portion of the union
and of course the south will con-
tiuue Democratic. These obnox.
ious measures were intended to
force negrodomination on the south
and to keep the negroes in the Re.
publican column. Left to them
selves they will divide politically

1t Didn't Stick.

On the night of the 9th OF January some tough
or spiteful citizen deliberately and as the law
yers say with malice aforethought threw stone
or club through the large street lamp at the
Ozanne corner and reduced it to smthereens.
Mr.. Ozanne promptly offered a eward of $25
through the EAGLE for the arrest and conviction
of the perpetrator of the costly piece of vandal-
ism. and nothing more was heard of the matter
till last Monday when Sam Cleveland went to
the hotel, showed the article in the paper to Mr.
Ozanne and asked il the offer was in good faith
| He was assured that it was. He then said that
| if Mr.. Ozau ne would deposit the amount in the
hands of a third party he and another man, who
proved to be Henry Brown, would furnish evil
idenoe to convict the offender. check was
ut once put into the hands Of Squire Parker for
the amount, and Jose Lujan a shoemaker who
makes his home with Juan Lucero, was des-
| ignated as the culprit. He was accordingly ar
rested and arraigned before Justice Sid Parker
on Wednesday
