PROPOSITION OF SENATOR PERKINS

Senator Perkins has introduced bill
for the appointment of a nom partisan
commission to collect information and to
consider and recommend legislation to
meet the problems presented by labor,
agriculture and capital
The idea on the part of the people is
that Senators and Representatives are
chosen to do just what Senator Perkins
Would have done by a commission. They
are supposed to be elected ON account of
their intelligence and their disposition to
give undivided and continued attention
10 public affairs, that they will investi-
gate and gather information and devise
legislation to meet the problems present.
ed by all interests. Unless the President
calls an extra session the Senators and
Representatives will have all the time
from the 4th of March till the first Mon
day Of December to investigate and re-

THE FINANCIAL nUDDLE

The financial difficulty with which the
Government is now struggling does not
arise from inability to obtain gold with
which to meet interest obligation. If that
were all new legislation would not be re-
quired. There is and will be no difficulty in
obtaining gold for that purpose, and to pay
the principal of the bonds at maturity so
far as immediate payment is likely to be
demanded. The trouble arises from the
policy of making paper money redeemable
in gold, or in other words, to maintain a
volume of money adequate to domestic
wants on parity with gold. The inter-
national measure of value is one that we
cannot dictate, and hence what CONNER
cial nations prescribe we cannot avoid rec
ognizing in international transactions.
Money, however, is for two uses; one
is in international and the other is in
domestic commerce. The volume ade-
quate to one is very small as compared
with the volume required in the other.
1t would be as absurd to attempt to main
tain volume for international use as it
is destructive to public interests to at
tempt to limit the volume for domestic
use to that which is required in foreign
transactions Domestic commerce is to
foreign as twelve to one, and the volume
of money necessary to the former cannot
be limited to the requirements of the
latter without producing the depression
and paralysis in business which the coun-
try is now experiencing. Though the
principal commercial nations prescribe a
single measure for the international trans
actions there is no reason why two may
not be employed in domestic business.
1t is solely Il matter among our own
people; what one is compelled to take in
payment of debt another is compelled to

To the Editor of The Herald:
1t is with u great deal of satisfaction
that in reading recent issues of The Her
aid find some good, common-sense argu-
ha wod 6e q bene ta the on nao and
country, contributed by some of the
bankers of Los Angeles. 1t is quite a
surprise to some to find that a banker
should take such a stand in the interest
OF the masses of the people of the United
States, instead of upholding the class
legislation that we have been subject to
for several years past but it proves that
there are some men yet who have loyalty
and justice enough to work for the interest
of the people and country as well as their
own selfish ends One Who Reads.

AN IMPORTANT DECISION
Assignments May Be Made to CO-Sure-
ties and Judgments Are Alive
for Twenty Years.

In the matter of the First National
Bank of Santa Fe vs.. M. A. Bartleson ct
al, argued before Judge Laughlin in
chambers some time ago, the motion of
W. E. Broad, one of the defendants, for
an order to quash an execution levied on
certain property in Rio Arriba county
was denied.
The execution was issued on July 10,
1895, on a Judgment obtained in 1888 IN
favor Of the First National bank against
NJ. A. Bartleson, W. E. Broad and @. H.
Gildersleeve, the last two being sureties
for Bartleson, upon which several execu-
tions were issued between 1883 and De-
cember l, 1885, and in 1887 the bank as
signed the judgment to Mr.. Gildersleeve
A motion was made to quash the execu-
ton, ~ because the assignment acted as
a payment and satisfaction of the judg-
ment, an6 (2) because no execution had
been issued on the Judgment for more
than seven years previous to July TO-
1895.
The motion was denied on the ground
first, that the bank had authority to make
the assignment to co-surety, and
second, that judgments are alive fol-
twenty years from the date of rendition
without the necessity of an action to re-
vive when executions have been issued
within the time fixed by the statute.

IRRIGATION DELEGATES
The Forthcoming Excursion to Santa
Fe-What's to Be Done Toward
Their Entertainment

Ten days hence the 4th national irriga-
tion congress will convene at Albuqusr-
que. After business session of three
days the delegates will be taken in hand
by the A., I. i s. f. railroad and shown
something of the country, visiting Santa
Fe, Phoenix, A. T., Las Cruces, Eddy and
other points. Naturally, the question
now arises, what is going to be done to-
ward preparing for the entertainment of
these visitors while in Santa Fe? Is it
not time our people were moving in the
premises and formulating some plan of
entertainment? This will be rare OPP
portunity to exhibit to men of intelli-
gence the resources and attractions of
Santa Fe and vicinity.
At Las Cruces the people have their
plans for such entertainment we'll in
hand already, as note the appended state
ment:
IA committee of citizens met last Fri
day to make arrangements for receiving
and entertaining the delegates to the ir-
rigation congress when they make their
excursion through the Mesilla valley.
The excursion train will stop here but
two hours, and the delegates will have
but hurried view of the valley. Car
riages will meet the train and take the
delegates up by the court house, through
the town, out to Dessauer's, Spatcier's,
Bulls, Casad'sT and the Woodland or
ohards, and thence to the college farm,
and the train will pick them up again at
Mesilla park. Baskets of assorted fruits
will be put aboard the train at the depot
to give the delegates an idea of the re-
sources and products of the valley. 1t is
ex pected that about fifty delegates will
compose the excursion party. Citizens
who have carriages and are willing to as
sist in entertaining the visitors are re-
quested to confer with Major Llewellyn,
