PLAYED BOTTLE POOL
Palma Boys Had Lively Contests For
Prizes.


A bottle pool tournament was on last night
at the Palma Club and the three tables were
used. Twenty-one cue experts contested.
The game was a peculiar one. The small
numbered balls were thrown out and the
player had to make only the number of
points in excess of the figure or
figures on the ban to reach the
thirty-one necessary to win the game. This
was a novel system of handieapping. and
several of the best players caught high
balls. The players were divided as near as
possible according to their ability. At one
table Messrs. Gopsill, Pearson. Vultee, Rich
and Banks were the contestants. At the
second table the struggle was between
Messrs. Gallagher, Egan, McWllliams,
Barlow, Totten, Freeman. Ewald and
Trout. The players on the third
table were Messrs. Klink, Frame, Hender-
son. Cook, Hall and Muirhead. A prize was
awarded to the player winning the greatest
number of games at each table, The win
ners were A. E. Vultee, James Hansell n
j. Freeman. The BOBBY prize, an antique
rooster that had scratched gravel for nigh
onto a century, was won by Ewald, who
failed to capture a game HeSintends send

Santa Fe daily New Mexican. [volume] (Santa Fe, N.M.) 1885-1897, 1894-01-15
A QUESTION AND ITS ANSWER.

WILL the Santa Fe New MEXICAN
please answer this question? Who was
governor of this territory when Charles
NJ. Conklin was appointed sheriff of San
ia Fe county? Please also give the names
of Mr.. Conklin's deputies. We're the Bor-
regos and Vigil serving as deputy
sheriffs under Conklin? We're they per-
mitted to go armed at all times day or
Acknowledgements Democrat
L. Bradford Prince was governor at the
time in question. Neither Borrego nor
Vigil were deputy sheriffs under Conklin,
though it is understood that both carried
fire arms with the knowledge of the then
sheriff. For time, shortly after the as
sassination of ex-Sheriff Chavez, Atilano
Gold, one of the accused now in Jail, who
walked arm in arm with Chavez on that
fatal night, acted as deputy sheriff.
As to Vigil, it is fact repeatedly re-
marked that he had been we'll supplied
with official positions by the Republican
party since the assassination of the ex-
SlerlH. AL Cuo UlIle vi but hIlIHS ITO WuS
justice of the peace, and, it is common
belief, that the conspiracy to murder
Chavez was concocted in his office. Upon
retiring as justice of the peace he was
nominated on the county Republican
ticket for coroner, elected, and, notwith-
standing the practical adjustment of
that Office long ago, Republican board
of county commissioners paid him his
salary as such coroner for several months,
or until their action was openly exposed
in the local press, and they were forced
to discontinue such unlawful payments.
Then Vigil was given permanent place
on the city police force. He was nomi-
mated by the Republicans as councilman
from the LIST ward, but an outraged pub
lie nipped this job from his clutches, and
to heal his lacerated feelings a Republi-
can city board of public schools appoint
ed him to position on that board.

Tax the Land Grants.

The territorial board of equalization
which meets on the third Monday III Janu-
airy, has an excellent opportunity to
prove that it's title is not misnomer.
Some of the most valuable lands in New
Mexico are in land grants, but it has been
the pernicious custom of assessors to I'M
der value them and impose only nominal
taxation on the ground that title was not
perfected.
In the case of an unconfirmed grant
there may be some excuse for such action,
but after the land court has confirmed a
grant the title is just as good as title can
be made, and the imperfection is purely
technical and imaginary. The owners Of
confirmed grants refrain from securing
patents for the express purpose of evad-
ing taxation but the absence of patents
does not prevent them from selling the
land. They should not be permitted to
shirk their Just share of the burden of
taxation by such a subterfuge. 1t may
and ought to be a basic principle of taxa
ton that not foot of land in this terri
tory should be assessed at less than the
government price of $1.25 per acre and
timber lands should not be assessed below
SIS. If the owner of grant can not af-
ford to pay taxes at the government valu-
alton of uncultivated lands, let him relin-
uish the land under delinquent tax sale
to somebody VINO can afford to pay.
The board of equalization should see
to it that grant owners no longer escape
taxation by compromising with collec-
tors. If the grants are worth holding,
they are worth taxing. The territory is
not so flush of funds that it can allow
rich land owners to escape the burden
that is laid upon other citizens.-Clayton
Enterprise.

PROSPECTS FRIGHTENING.

The pessimistic Republican, who for
months has been bitterly wailing about
the wrecked condition of business in the
United States, is somewhat out of luck.
As the days Of 1894 lengthen, prospects
brighten in mercantile as well as in manu-
featuring lines, and current events are
thus coldly giving the lie to the repre-
sentation that the talk of modifying the
tariff law caused the deplorable depres-
sion in the business world. Commercial
travellers are taking the road again in
large numbers and the reports they are
sending in to their houses are most en-
couraging. Leading merchants and manu-
facturers say that the spring trade prom
ises to be unusually heavy. Mills and
factories are starting up on full time IN
all parts of the east. Bradstreet notes
that "resum ption of work in industrial
lines is very general, more than twice
as many factories and mills having start.
ed up last week as shut down." The
number of mercantile failures, as the
result of the annual balancing of &C.
counts, was not larger than usual, and il
is worthy of note that not one large job
bing house was included In the list. Even
the railway companies, which have been
obliged to yield the control of their of
fairs to receivers, are gradually working
out of their troubles. The affairs of the
Santa Fe system are in notably hopeful
condition and the officers are sanguine
that they will be able to effect an early
settlement and resume control of the cor

duty, bring the guilty to justice, purge
the country of the plague that has pre-
vented progress, enlightenment and Sc
curity to Life, and set down in their OBJ
scure corners a job lot of cheap politi-
clans, tricksters, assassins and murderers.
New Mexico's claim for statehood does
not rest upon what the Republicans have
done, but upon what Democrats are do
ing and the prosperity which is to follow
after q few more legal shootings and
hangings.-Albuquerque Times.

poration. Such reports come from all
directions, all tending to show that a gen
eral revival of business is near at hand.
The soundest thinkers in the country
generally concur in the opinion that the
tariff discussion, while of course import
ant does not cut nearly as important
figure in the problem as the question of
supply and demand.

Misrule Under the Old Gang in santa
Fe County.


Tragedies such as that enacted at Santa
Fe few days ago, do not help to con-
vince eastern people that New Mexico is
fit for statehood.--Citizen.
The act at Santa Fe few days ago was
not a tragedy but vengeance. Eastern
people who study political history of this
territory know that the long reign of Re
publican governors was one long record
of crime and instability, that the regime
of the Democrat, Edmund G. Ross, was
marked by comparative peace, and the
succeeding days of Republican rule were
stained by violence and bloodshed. AS
''sure as God reigns," these murders can
all be traced directly to the gang which
has been Santa Fe's curse for twenty
years. The Democrats will call upon the
present fearless administration to do its

On to statehood.

New Mexico has more agricultural and
mineral resources than the whole of New
England, more water power, more timber,
more grass, and is in many other ways
ahead of the little manufacturing section
that thinks this great territory unfit for
statehood. Some Of the papers
of the east oppose the admission of New
Mexico on the grounds of the ignorance
of the people. We're they not profoundly
ignorant of the subject themselves they
could easily learn that this territory has
compulsory school law that, in its
features, is not excelled by any state in
the Unlon.-Socorro Chieftain.
