FOR several years the building has been
regarded as practically unsafe. The
front walls are cracked and parents
whose children attend the schooi have
complained of its unsafe condition. The
old building has done excellent service
and in the original branch many OF the
gentlemen who hold Office under the
city and county governments have been

PRESS COMMENTS.
The same In santa Fe.

The payment of the railroad bonds is
sue;, by the town of Silver City and by
the county of Grant, is a question now
perturbing the minds of the taxpayers,
financiers and legal fraternity of the city
and county. As to the county bonds
there seems to be but little dissent to the
opinion that the bonds issued to the rail
road were not valid obligation. The
same would apply to the bonds issued by
the city had they not been refunded. We
fail to see how the refunding could make
them valid. If the initiation of the debt
we're illegal, the faint still attached to the
debt when the refunding bonds were is
sued, and yet now attaches to the new
bonds and forbids their payment. The
territorial law which gave the right to re-
fund, did not contemplate, nor did it au-
thorize, nor could it legalize a formerly
illegal obligation, which was so illegal, by
reason of being assumed in violation of
constitutional rights granted by the
United States statute. There are equi-
ties involved which may have bearing
beyond the technical legal points pre-
sented at first view of the case. It is said
that to repudiate these bonds will injure
the credit of our county, and present an
obstacle to the influx ofcapital, which is
necessary to the development of new
country like ours. If this were urged ae
a reason for paying illegal obligations,
there would be cessation Of business
throughout the world, as we see every
day instances of capitalists resisting the
demands of each other for the payment
of such liabilities, which are technically
illegal, and the technicalities more trivial
than in these cases. Would the holders
of these bonds pay our people any such
illegal debt? 1t is very doubtful. Repu-
diation of any just debt is poor policy,
but peonage of our people for the pay
ment of an illegal debt is yet worse, when
it is considered fair business PROPOSE
ton by the same class of creditors, to
evade the payment of similar obligations
on the very same grounds. -silver City

IHEY WANT TO CONE.

All reports appear to agree that bust
ness is steadily improving throughout
the country and the feeling at the eastern
commercial centers is one of renewed
confidence. The southwest is going to
be benefited by this condition of things.
In the past two years this region of
country has been extensively advertised
both directly and indirectly, and home
seekers have become quite familiar with
our resources; many have written that
they propose to come and cast their for
tunes with US, but that hard times have
prevented them from disposing of their
home effects. With revival of business
this class of people will be able to break
loose from their moorings and come
west. We look for very decided move
ment toward the valleys of New Mexico
during the next year.

nation of that virtuous moulder of pub
lie opinion. The education the Globe
Democrat wishes the people to swallow
is all one sided and taught by club
of New York snobs whose teachings the
people of the west and south do not want.
One of the teachers mentioned, Richard
P. Rothwell, ia at the head of mining
paper Engineering and Mining journal
but instead of being conducted in the in
terest of the mines and miners of the
country, as its name would indicate, it Is
the mouthpiece and organ of Wall and
Lombard streets to a greater extent, per-
haps, even than the Globe-Democrat
itself. Richard p Rothwell and the
other writers mentioned by the Globe
Democrat imbibed their financial educa-
tion Oh Wall street and from the million
aire snobs of New York, neither of whom
has one particle Of sympathy with or feel
ing for the producing classes, only as
they can extort from them the fruits of
their production. The west and south
will have none of such teachers.
The Globe Demo rat seems to think
that all is to be done in order to impov
erish the people by their own votes 10 to
pump them full of the silly and bigoted
trash that it mentions as eminating from
soma If tho scr1hhlars If unnpr-ten r nm
in New York. The only subject on which
the Globe Democrat editor might instruct
the people of the west and south, a subiec
on which he is thoroughly we'll posted, is
the quickest, surest and best way to de-
fraud the government, as for instance
through whisky fraud scheme.

On April 18th to goth inclusive a car
nival entitled LA fiesta de Los Angeles"
will be held at Los Angeles, Calf.
It is under the management of the
Merchants Association, an influential
organization Of business men who have
large resources and IL is expected that
the carnival will excel the Mardi Gras or.
any similar fete ever attempted in Ameri
ca.
The fiesta of 1894 was pronounced
success from every standpoint and the
plans for the 1895 event promise the
most unique fete OF modern times. As
you doubtless understand, there are
peculiar conditions which make celebra-
ton of this character moro enjoyable
there than elsewhere, among which may
be mentioned the mild climate, an abund-
ance of fruits and flowers, aud the his
toric and romantic associations of Cali
fornia, from which latter are drawn ma
terials for many artistic and unique feat
ures Of "La fiesta de Los Angeles" The
Spanish and Chinese population part
icipate in the parades and there are many
other features of an instructive and re-
fining nature. Low rates of fare in effect
via Santa Fe route. For particulars call
