own name mentioned, but he saw others
raise their hats to cheer. and turning
about SO as to face the crowd, he raised his
hat and cheered as Justify as the next

When he learned that the cheers had
been given for himself, the Governor

Taxation and Democracy.

In the senate a resolutions has
been introduced by Senator Mills,
and laid on the table temporarily,
declaring that in the revision of
the existing system of national
taxation the following principles
be observed:
First. All taxes are burdens
on tax payers and can only be
rightfully imposed to raise revenue
to support the government.
Second. That when taxes are
imposed on imported goods the
rate should be so low as not to
materially restrict importation.
That in selecting the articles to
be taxed, only those ready fol
consumption should be chosen, and
those imported to be manufactured
OF remanufactured to be exemp.

school Of Mines.


It has been definitely agreed
that the school of mines will be
closed during the coming year. IL
seems that the tax levy provided
by law is not sufficient to maintain
this school in such a manner as to
be creditable to the Territory.
The regents have, in view of this
unfortunate dilemma, concluded
that it was to the best interest Of
the Territory to close the school
for the present, and use all sums
collected from taxes for the pur-
chasing of laboratory and satisfac-
tory equipment preparatory to
opening the school next year. The
board came to the conclusion some
time ago that this was the best
thing TO be done, but it was unfor-
tunately handicapped by a con-
tract made with Prof. Floyd Davis
for a period Of three years, (of
which he has served one year and
it was feared that he would be
entitled to receive his salary for
the full period of the contract,
whether his services were required
or not. To avoid this dilemma
the board some time since request
ed the governor to use his best eff
forts to see if an amicable settle
ment could be made. The settle
ment was consummated last Satur-
day by Prof. Davis agreeing to
accept his salary for the past year
and sufficient amount to cover
the expense Of moving his family
TO New Mexico and returning east
which was estimated at $500, and
a settlement was finally concluded
upon these terms. There has been
