the WORK Of THE CONVENTION.

The Democratic territorial convention,
which adjourned sine die yesterday, de-
serves the thanks of the people of New
Mexico for tho work which it accom-
plished. Representing as it did the Demo-
cratic party of New Mexico, which com
prises a majority of our voting popula-
ton, more fully than any previous assem-
blage of the kind, this gathering was
peculiarly called upon in this crisis to
make only such nomination and to en-
dorse only such principles as would re-
dound to the benefit of the whole of New
Mexico. That they have done their work
well in both these particulars, the unani-
nous appreciation of our people already
expressed amply attests. In the renomi-
nation of Hon. Antonio Joseph for dele
gate, the representatives of the people
have shown their fidelity to the people
by presenting for support man of the
people. In his ten years. career in con-
gress Mr.. Joseph has shown himself able
and untiring in his devotion to the peo-
pies interests. His denomination at this
time was the logical sequence of his rec
ord; and his Importance as our agent in
completing the work of securing state
hood lent special emphasis to the eternal
fitness of things which made him once
more the standard bearer of New Mex
ico's Democracy.
Mr.. Joseph's opponent before the con-
vention was Democrat who has been

most earnest in his service to the party
in the past; and it was very natural that
he should have had strong friends in the
convention who felt it an honor to urge
him for the nomination. That he should
have waived personal ambition and have
heartily united in the movement which
made Mr.. Joseph's denomination unani-
nous is only additional proof that Harvey
B. FERGUSON merits the esteem in which
he is held by the Democracy of New Mex
leo.
Of the admirable declaration of prin-
ciple upon which the convention goes be-
fore the people, the New MEXICAN will
have more to say hereafter. At this time
it is sufficient for US to declare that we
believe the action of the Las Cruces dele
gates will meet the full endorsement of
the rank and file of the Democracy which
they represented; and that the endorse

A Strong Case Made Up.

The New MEXICAN devote one full
page to what it terms "Tax Dodging,"
and appears to make up a strong case.
There is no question but what the terri
tory and the several counties are manipu-
lated out of large amounts of taxes in
one way and another. If this is not the
case, why should taxes 60 right along
doubling up, when it is known that there
is much more property in the territory
than there were ten or fifteen years ago.

DR.. PIERCE'S
Golden Medical
DISCOVERY
Cures Ninety.eighf per cent. of all
cases of Consumption, In all It's
Earlier Stages.

Although by many believed to be incura.
BILE, there Is the evidence of hundreds Of
living witnesses to the fact that, in all its
earlier stages, consumption Is a curable
disease. Not every case, but a large per-
eentage Of cases, and we believe, Jniiy 81
per cent are cured by DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery even after the disease
has progressed so far as to induce repeated
bleedings from the lungs, severe lingering
cough with copious expectoration Gnclud-
ing tubercular matter), great loss OF flesh
and extreme emaciation and weakness.
Do you doubt that hundreds of such cases
reported to us as cured by Golden Med
ical Discovery" were genuine cases of that
dread and fatal disease1 You need not take
our word for 1t. They have, In nearly every
instance, been so pronounced by the best
and most experienced home physicians,
who have no interest whatever in mis-
representing them, and who were often
strongly prejudiced and advised against
a trial Of Golden Medical Discovery"
but who have been forced to confess that
il surpasses, in curative power over this
fatal malady, all other medicines with
which they are acquainted. Nasty cod.
liver oil and its filthy "emulsions" and
mixtures, had been tried in nearly all these
cases and had either utterly failed to bene-
fit, or had only seemed to benefit little for
a short time. Extract of malt, whiskey,
and various preparations of the hypophos-
phites had also been faithfully tried in vain
The photographs of large number Of
those cured of consumption, bronchitis,
catarrh and kindred maladies, have been
skillfully reproduced in a book of I6o
pages which will be mailed to you on re-
ceipt of address and six cents in stamps.

One night a year later the wild

almost on the same spot. The In
dians had become hostile again, and,
thinking it the signal for an at
tact, the centinel fired into the dark
ness. The cry was not repeated,
but in place of it came a scream of
pain and terror. Nothing was found
next morning, but a day or two
later still another party came across
a dead body on the sands. They
did not ride close enough to disturb
the vultures. Some said it was the
body of woman clothed in rags,
with tangled hair falling to the
knee; some thought it that of a de-
serter who had become a wandering
