THE CoLrSx COUNTY FRAUDS.

The Ration Range charges that the NEW
MEXICAN "reiterates the base Islander
against some of Colfa1 county's citizens,
and endorses the charges against them Of
being illegal voters"
The NEW MEXICAN is extremely sorry
to say that it must plead guilty to this
accusation by the Range. We find upon
an examination Of the records that there
is a very great discrepancy in the vote of
certain precincts In that county for 1894
as compared with that cast in 1892. In
Ration precinct the vote for delegate in
1892 was 271, while in 1894 we find the
vote cast to be 3ls. Now 1t is notorious
fact that scores of railroad men employed
in the shops and yards there in 1892 quit
the service of the company in July last
by reason of the great strike and left the
country, and an increase Of nearly fifty
votes in Ration precinct alone, is, under
the circumstances, most suspicious, to say
the least. So also in other precincts do
we find an increased vote for 1894 over
1892 that by no means appears reason
able in the light of the fact that general
business there is not near what it was two
years ago. Take Catskill, as another e1-
ample, and here we fnd 181 votes cast in
1894 as against III in 1892, when it is
notorious fact that the lumber mills and
charcoal pits whereabouts have not been
near SO busily engaged as formerly.
Our contemporary should lsok care
fully to an analysis of the facts of record
before it goes into TRADE of abuse over
the allegation that fraud is largely &c
sponsible for the apparent result of the
recent election in Collar county.

Alien Vote Counted.

The latest information which. reaches
the Morning Democrat from the district
in which J. A. Ancheta and g. W. Miles
were opposing candidates for the terrific
rial council, is to the effect that ballot
box stuffi.g was prevalent there last
November. In Dona Ana and Grant
counties at least $50 fraudulent votes were
counted, still notwithstanding such bold
corruption Mr.. Anchetas certificate only
gives him thirty-eight plurality.
In Mesllla precinct two years ago the
Democrats had $50 majority and this
year by the dishonest methods resorted
to by their opponents the vote is made to
appear $50 short of that of the previous
election. And this crime, too, was per-
petrated in what was formerly known as
the strongest aud staunchest Democratic
precinct in the territory of New Mexico.
The greatest number Of fraudulent votes
polled on the side of the Republican
candidate in Dona Ana county as in
the Mesilla and Mesa precincts which
cover that portion of southern New Mex
leo included in what is known as the
Gadsden purchase. 1t came into the
Union by the act Of congress of 1866. At
that time great many of the inhabitants
of this section withdrew from the terri
tory and Joined Old Mexico and thus re-
fused to comply with the conditions Of
fered them by the United States. Since
then these aliens have returned to the
Mesilla and Mesa precincts and without
taking the oath Of allegiance to this
country have been permitted to perform
the mostsacred political duty Of an Amer
lean citizen without being challenged by
their Republican sponsors. These votes,
which number at the lowest calculation
at least $50, should not have been counted
and at the pending contest of G. W..
Miles for seat will certainly be thrown
out. Aside from these facts it is also
known that not less than sixty-five fraud
ulent votes we're credited to the Repub-
lican candidate in Grant county. When
the searchlight shines upon these frauds
the politicians in whose interest they
we're perpetrated will not feel as secure

LIEUT.. PLUMBERS WORK.

Lieut.. E. n. Plummer, who has recently
retired from the agency of the Navajo
Indians, deserves the thanks of the coun.
try for the energy, industry and intel.
ligence which has characterized his ad.
ministration of that important work
Taking hold of it at a time when there
was every disadvantage present calculated
to retard the undertaking he has done
much to bring to government notice the
needs of the people in whose midst he
has been doing service. 1t has been said
by someone that the Indians progress
toward civilization runs in four stages
First, the chase; then, pastoral life; third,
agricultural life, and lastly, manufacture,
trade, etc. That the Navajo is Just now
passing from the second to the third
stage is due very largely to the indefati-
gable efforts of their late agent. 1t is
greatly to be regretted that this personal
work of progress was not reinforced by
the more cordial assistance of the depart
ments at Washington, and it is to be
hoped that the work of Lieut.. Plummer's
successor will be made easy by the power
full auxiliary forces which exist at Wash
ington. It should result that with the
excellent work already done as a basis
the Navajoes will be carried forward in
the near future to that condition of life
when manufacture and commerce will
supplant forever their less peaceable pur-
suits and when their primitive "swords
shall be beaten into plowshares and their
spears into pruning hooks"

and it now repeats it, that just as soon

less than S1oo0O,oOO of English capital

vicious alien act now prevents the coming

purpose OF supplying smugglers with a
means for escaping detection.
The porous plaster has often served as
a means OF secreting diamonds. When it
is understood that $4,000 worth of dia-
monds or more can easily be inclosed in a
paper parcel ahoutas wide as this column,
one and one-half inches high, and about a
quarter of an inch thick, it is easy to
comprehend that such package can be
Kept securely in place by means of an in
nocent, but highly serViceable porous
plaster.
One of the most ingenious methods ever
employed was the use of cake of soap,
wherein number of diamonds had been
i'm oedded. 1t is highly probable that
TINS plan would have proved success
ful had it not been that the officers of the
government had received information that
the suspected person had diamonds with
him, and searched his efects 80 thor
oughly that they examined even
the gem studded block of soap.
The wife of this smuggler helped
her spouse, and her plan was
not less ingenious than that of her hus-
band. Her hat was ornamented with
punches Of grapes, which under ordinary
circumstances would only have awakened
the envy of other wearers of bonnets.
Within the grapes were diamonds and
fancy stones OF great value.
Another smuggler was specially pro-
Ylded by providence with a smuggling de-
vice in the shape Of a heavy covering of
thick, bushy hair, which he arranged so
that it stood up from his forehead like an
impenetrable bush. Within this mass of
heavy hair he deposited gOodly stock of
diamonds, and succeeded for a time in
evadlng the vigilance of the custom house
officials.
As these schemes have become known
to the custom house authorities, the in
genuity of the smugglers has become more
severely taxed. A recent discovery dis
closed the following elaborate plan.
which succeeded great many times be-
fore 1t was discovered Two smugglers
operated IN partnership. The first crossed
the ocean, and before leaving the wharf
reserved a return berth for certain date
The date and the number of the berth
were at once cabled to his accomplice in
America. Having purchased his dia-
mOnds. in due time he returned to this
country in accordance with the instruc-
tions previously ca0led.
No amount of examination resulted in
finding any diamonds upon his person
Meanwhile however, his partner had Sc
cured the same berth. When the day
for sailing came partner number two, ac-
companied by his family, entered the
cabin, and distracted from a secure hi
ding place several parcels of diamonds
left there by his accomplicc. These he
handed to his fearful family, who after
bidding him good-bY, left the steamer I'M
suspected and brought the diamonds
with them into the market. 1t took a
long time to discover the scheme.
