JUDGE HALLET made some
very pertinent remarks to the
United States grand jury which
met at Denver last week in in
structing it as to its duties with
regard to the strike. He said:
81 think the principle upon which
this strike has been carried out is
beyond all reason. 1t is remark
able that the wisest statesman
could have predicted these condi-
tons a hundred years ago. 1t
cannot be said that because these
unions have a noble purpose, they
have a right to override the laws
of this country and put to incon-
venience the whole country" The
grand jury has been investigating
cases of interference by strikers
with the operation of railroads in
Colorado which are in the hands
of United States receivers.

GOVERNOR THoRNToN'R name is
being prominently mentioned in
connection with the delegateship
to congress. Mr.. Thornton has
been for long a well known man in
the Territory; and the firm and
able way in which he has filed the
Office Of governor has greatly In
creased his popularity and the
respect in which the people hold
him. He is closely associated
with New Mexico's interests, and
would in every way make a repre-
sentative, able and distinguished
delegate.

WE are informed that Grant

Of interest on her bonds. If this
is true, it is q fatal mistake her
commissioner are making in not
obtaining money in any way pos

County bonds are abont the best
securities that capitalists can get,
and they are sought for, and the

CHICAGO has been infamous for
years past as the center Of the
anarchistic elements Of the coun-
try and the seat Of the greatest
amount Of public violence and OPP
position to capital. It is therefore
not surprising to hear as one of
the results OF the late strike that
the Pullman Car company's works
near hat city are not to be re-
opened, and that the company is
making arrangements to build new
works and recommence operations
in New Jersey, in which state it
thinks it viii meet with greater
protection from the law and less
open and avowed opposition from
the public than it has done in
Illinois. Capital is naturally shy
OF places where lawlessness and
disorder reign, and the moving Of
these works means not only the
loss Of work to the old employees.
bat also the loss to Chicago and
Illinois Of the trade Of over 5000
O~Deratives.

giving no chance for further argu-

minedly but quietly stopped the
whole thing. This last is the real
reason Of the stopping Of the
whole strike. It sounds very
simple indeed. But Il takes a man
Of power to use simple means for

Asks for Troops.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Oct. 23.-
Secretary Hoke Smith has re-
quested the Secretary of War to
send troops to the Indian Terri
tory to suppress the lawless bands
which have been operating there
and in the adjacent country.
Accompanying the request was
the communication Secretary
Smith yesterday received from
the Indian Territory, detailing the
deplorable condition Of affairs
there.
Secretary Smith, in his letter to
the War Department, says that IN
view of the obligations of the
Government as set forth in the
treaties with the Indians of the
Indian Territory to protect the
Five Civilized Tribes against
domestic strife aud hostile inva-
sion, and to guarantee those people
peaceable enjoyment of their
country, he recommends that
troops be send as requested.
Commissioner Browning, in q
letter accompanying the Secre-
tary's, suggests that a troop of
cavalry be sent into the Indian
Territory to assist in preserving
the peace. 1t is expected that the
troops would drive out the
marauders who are hsrrassing the
people.

Lumber and Wool.

Ex-GOv. Horace Boies, OF Iowa,
received an ovation at Council
Bluff last week, where he address
ed the Democracy. He said:
"a tax on lumber, benefits a few
men who own pineries In Minnesota.
Such tax was imposed on lumber by
u Republican Congress In 1880 and
had the effect of increasing the price
50 or $3.50 per thousand OH all lumhor
consumed IN tho country. This
amount had to be paid by the rank
and file of the citizens of the country.
I'm New Mexico there are immense
syndicaies engaged IN grazing sheep
on government land which costs them
nothing. In our State, where land is
valuable, 1t has been found imp0ssib BILE
to compete with the sheep herders of
New Mexico, and the industry has
gradually died out. The tariff i'm
posed on wool by the Mckinley tariff
law benefited the owpers OF these
vast sheep interests In New Mexico,
but its only effect on us was to raise
the price OH commodities in which
wool was used"

devoted to the new tariff bill. He
completely refuted the Republican
lntimation that 1t Is not reform

the great saving 1t would prove to the
consumer. His audience frequently
broke out In applause, and when liz

there was u chorus of "Go on! Go On!'
He explained how the oenate had te
