THE PAY QUESTION.

The legislative employees pay embrog.
lilo has at last been settled by action of
the supreme court in favor of the EN-.
ployes. The decision was on the line of that
by the Oklahoma territorial supreme court
involving much the same question. The
formal opinion of the court will not be
handed down until the regular term of
court in July, but under the decision the
territorial financial officers are required
to turn over to President Curry and
Speaker Dame the sum of $500 each, by
them to be used in meeting the necessary
contingent expenses of the 31st assembly,
which includes, Of course, the pay of en-
ployes. In announcing the conclusion of
the court Chief Justice Thomas Smith
took occasion to pay very high tribute
to Associate Justice Laughlin, whose de-
cision, as district judge, the higher court
had reversed. Judge Laughlin's opinion
in the premises was certainly conscien-
tlous one, based on the law as he con-
strued it, and the unbiased earnestness
with which he maintains his decision
will render the supreme courts adverse
ruling extremely interesting when it is
made public.

Schmidt's Murderer.

eCnmIOtS MurUcrcr.
The house adopted memorial to the
governor, requesting the pardon Jose D.
Gallegos, who is now serving life SEN
tence for the murder of ]. j. Schmidt, of
Wagon Mound, on July /, 1892.
Our criminal record discloses no more
FLOODED murder than the killing Of
Mr.. Schmidt, and we feel assured that
when Gov. Thornton is advised of the
facts of this case, he will refuse to divert
justice.
The only grudge that the murderer
had against his victim was that Mr..
Schmidt had attached flock of sheep
belonging to Gallegos. The civil pro-
ceedings came to Colfax county where
twelve unprecedented men found the cause
for attachment legal one, and any rea-
sonable man will say that Schmidt was
not playing the part of Shylock, as
Gallegos was attempting to spirit his
sheep out of the territory to avoid his
liability to Schmidt in large sum for
merchandise and supplies furnished by
him to Gallegos. Schmidt's only recourse
was to stop the sheep by attachment
proceedings, which he did.
And for doing this Gallegos gets his
Winchester, kisses his wife and tells her
he is going to kill Schmidt, mounts his
horse, goes to town, learns that Schmidt

Hereafter reasonable number" of en-

is out driving, follows him, rides up to
the unsuspecting merchant and in the
presence of his wife and little child,
shoots him down as an ordinary human
being could not even shoot dog.
Gallegos was tried in his own county,
where after bringing to bear all tthe per-
sonal and political influences he and his
friends could WELD, the best the jury
could do for him was to save his miser-
able neck, but sent him to the peniten-
tiary for life, and now after scarce two
years of confinement, our legislature
would pardon him.

President Curry.
Now that the labors of the Legislature
are about done for this time, the Eagle
feels that while it can not point with
pride or satisfaction of an exalted degree
to the record made by the lawmakers as
body, yet it may properly bestow mer-
tied praise upon individuals. The par
ticular individual in mind is Councilman
George Curry, of this county, which has
often honored him, and never with mis-
placed confidence. He was called to the
presidency of the council at its organiza
ton, and in that part of the work showed
the same independence and Partially for
fairness and justice that has character
lied his conduct in his official capacity
since. He has retained the esteem of his
party friend and at the same time won
the respect of the opposition, and is to-
day one of the strong young men of New
Mexico.-White Oaks Eagle.

The Optic is incorrect in stating that a
great deal of vicious legislation results
from the late session of the 31st assembly.
A great deal might have been done in
this direction had not the Democratic
majority and few clean Republicans
stood together. Besides such measures
had to run the risk of meeting with a
Democratic executives veto, and these
influences all tended to have salutary
effect upon the boodler element.
