When NcwYork newspapers suggest that The
gas companies ought to reduce the price of gas
some Of the holders Of gas stock assert in an
swcr that the newspapers ought 10 cut down
their own prices. This Is an unreasonable and

papers give their readers and their advertisers

The people who spread reports about Mayor
strong's agreements with Mr.. Plat make their
wish father to the thought and word. As for the
Mayor he seems to be conducting his office ac-
cordng to the ideas Of Mr. Strong. not of Mr. Piatt
or any Of his friends. There is every reason TO
believe that the Mayor has a level head ana that
IL contains an abundance Of common-sense lie
is likely to remain Mayor so long as his office Is IN

Colonel William l.. Strong. as everybody VINO

levelheaded man. He knows perfectly well
what the people of this city elected him to DO
and during the four weeks he has been in office
ne has given repeated proofs Of his purpose 10

citizens think ne can be cajoled or swerved from
that purpose by any inducements, promises or
threats they are likely TO live long enough to
see that they have mistaken their man. Mayor
Strong knows what is going on, both in New
York and Albany. and his vision is sufficiently
clear and his judgment sufficiently sound TO
keep him from falling into any traps or serving
as any mans catspaw.

subordination, other than what has
been fomented by the instructor
in the business department; that
the faculty is composed Of thor
oughly competent men who are
performing their duties well and
satisfactorily, and there are no
grounds whatever for the assaults
that have been made by the pres
ident's political enemies upon the
institutions.
The report will be printed in full
as soon as it shall have been com
pleted and signed. The board
cannot be suspected of prejudice
in favor Of President McCrea, two
of them being we'll known repub-
licans and the third, Brother Bo-
tulph, above any suspicion of being
influenced by politics on either
side. Such a report should stop
all the wrangling and convince
even the most prejudiced partisan
that there is no sense in attacking
the college because certain poll
ticians have a grudge against its
president.
The Independent Democrat will
consider that the institution needs
no further defence against the
misguided citizens of Las Cruces
who have been led into the deplor-
able campaign against an institu-
ton that they should support with
pride, and trusts that such persons
will cease their senseless warfare
and endeavor to restore harmony.
Any resumption of the assaults
can be attributed only to either
malicious spleen or monumental
stupidity.
The board examined the books
and accounts of Treasurer Cha
vez and found them perfectly
straight and all funds accounted
for properly. --Independent Dem

has raised, of the reputation Of

AGRICLTURAL COLLRGE.

AUnlNnl nal NUhhEuEs
he Territorial board of educa-
ton, consisting of Gov. Thornton,
f. S. Slower, Amado Ohaves and
Brother Botolph, came to Las
Cruces on Monday morning and
began an investigation into the
affairs of the Agricultural College.
1t had been changed by the politi-
cal enemies Of President McCrea
that his managemel t had democrat
lied the institution, that the facul-
ty was composed of incompetent
men, that the students We're dissat-
isfed and insubordinate, that they
had no respect for the president
or the professors, that there was
no discipline and that the students
were making little if any progress,
and hat the treasurer was short
in his accounts.
The board devoted two days to
the Investigation, examining all
departments, listening to COM
plants, questioning students and
generally probing to the bottom
of things. On Monday night, one
of the instructors, who has been
most active in melting a spirit of
dissatisfaction and who devotes
much of his time to gathering
students about him and denounc-
ing the president and faculty,
assured Mr.. Slower that McCrea
was deceiving the board, that
thIrty-two students had matric-
ulated and sixteen had left in dis
gust, and that ten students, whom
he named, would testify hat they
considered McCrea incompetent
and that they were greatly dissat-
isfed with his methods.
MI. Slower reported this to the
Governor, and the board decided
to probe the matter to the bottom
and ascertain the facts, no matter
what the consequences might be.
The instructor and the faculty
were called into the room, and
President McCrea was asked how
many students had matrlculated
aud how many had left. Presi-
dent McCrea replied hat thirty
two had matriculated and eight
had left for various reasons. He
wrote upon the black board the
names Of the twenty-four remain.
ing in the college course. The
instructor had to admit that the
list was correct, and that his state
ment was based upon mere loose
talk. In a discussion that follow
ed, the instructor violated the
proprieties and manifested a spirit
of factious opposition and bad
temper. The students whom he
had named as being dissatisfied
we're taken apart from the faculty
and requested to state their griev-
ances. They said they had nc
grievances; that they were per
fectly satisfied with the discipline
OF the college and with President
McCrea. One or two students said
they did not think the president
was competent to manage a col
lege, but when asked why they
thought so, they could give no
reason except that they had been
told 80 or had seen such a state
ment IN a paper.
The report Of the Board will
declare that the instructor in book
keeping is the primary cause Of all
the disturbance and the source Of
the attacks upon the president and
faculty, and that his charges and
assertions have been found to be
false; that the college IS in ex-
cellent condition; thatthe attend.
anco has been increased and the
standard raised; that the disci.
pline is good that there is no Ia.
