Jeffrey refers in enthusiastic terms to the
bounteous crops everywhere apparent
along the narrow gauge lines He says it
taxes ones words to attempt to describe
the yield of grain, hay, potatoes, fruit,
etc, the valleys of the Rockies are this
year producing. The D. & R. G. COM
pany maintains a regular emigrant bu-
reau of information in Chicago, and this
fall extraordinary efforts will be made to
place before prospective settlers informa-
ton concerning the productive lands of
these delightful valleys. The people of
Taos, Rio Arriba and Santa Fe counties
can congratulate themselves over the
fact that Mr.. Jeffrey's road has at last
secured permanent foothold in New
Mexico, and that their interests will be
looked after by the D. & R. G. immigra-
ton department in locating new home
seekers they can rest assured.

PRESS COMMENT.
Republicanism in New York.

Among the things that the Republican
party promised was an economical gov
eminent, "reduced state expenditures and
a minimized tax rate" In 1894 the DEM
ocratic appropriation was $3,155,000. In
1895 the economical Republicans appro-
priated $l3,907,000, or within $4,000 of
$l4,O00,OOO. In addition to this they pro-
vided for indirect taxes which it is com
puted will net over $5,000,000. The total
money which it is thus proposed to take
out of the pockets of the people is only n
trfie less than $l9,0O0,000 All this in the
name of economy and reform.
Nearly every other pledge made by the
Republican party has been kept in the
same way. They have made law put
ting obstacles in the way of naturaliza-
ton in contravention of the words of the
constitution that "Congress shall have
power to establish uniform rule Of nat
uralization;" they have made an inquisi-
torial and obstructive registration law;
they have made law requiring the chill
dren in public schools to be instructed to
an insane theory about alcohol, and they
have in all possible ways abused the
mandate that every dominant party is
supposed to have to use its power for
the general welfare, happiness and pros
perity of the people.-New York Journal.

A GOOD deal has been said of late as to
Hon. q. M. Shannon's candidacy for the
Arizona governorship in case the powers
that be see fit to let out Gov. Hughes.
The New MEXICAN has it from Mr.. Shan
non himself that he is in no sense an ap-
plicant for the Office. He has filed no
papers with the department., nor has he
consented to the use of his name in the
premises. However, the many hattering
Endorsements he has had from the press
of Arizona and New Mexico and the
kindly expressions from citizens of both
territories hs fully appreciates.

Special SESSIONS JUDGES DISAGREE.

JUSTICE HAYES DIssENTs FROM HIS ASSOCIATES
IN AN ALLEGED OPIUM DEN CASE.
James Davis of No. 81 1aliman-st.. Brooklyn, and
Mrs MAY See Yee of Red Bank y. j., were on
trial Yesterday in Special Sessions on the charge OF
maintaining an opium joint at No. II hottest They
were arrested on November q by Policeman Finn
of the Elizabeth-st station, who. while looking for
another case. stumbled upon them in the room with
an opium layout between them. They were not
smoking.
Justice Hobrook announced that there being no
legal evidence that they in any way response
bic for the maintenance of the place, they were
discharged, whereat Justice Hayes said: "There is
a large number Of these vile dens of infamy in this
city. To my. mind the evidence was conclusive IN
this case. The officer who made the arrest knows
it is an opium joint and | am satisfied that the
prisoners should have been convicted, and person
ally believe there should have been conviction
Then raising his voice until he almost shouted,
Justice Hayes continued: 80 .ong ! am on this
bench / shall. do all in my power 10 break up these
vie and Infamous dens." Justice Holbrook. rep.y-
ing TO Justice Hayes. said:
MY associate. Justice Jerome and myself fully
agree with Justice Hayes, and We, too, Will DO al
in power TO break up these dens. but the trouble
in this is that there not suffcient .egl.
evidence to secure a conviction We certainly should
have convicted otherwise. If the police will arrest
the right persons will be happy 10 convict and
see that they are punished.

that one of the tenants in the bank building started
the fire in order to get money from Insurance COM
panies.
About ten days ago all Of the persons who had
been tenants in the bank building were summoned
before Mr. HOLSTER and questioned closely. Some
facts of importance were obtained in that way. but
Mr. HOLSTER has said that two citizens who are
not connected with his Office entitled TO the
credit of discovering the incendary. The Fire Mar
shall would not reveal the name Of the supposed
incendary yesterday, but he intimated that the
man would soon be arrested and charged with the
crime of arson. At Fire Headquarters II was said

The four Police Commissioners at o'clock yes

II was generally understood. however. tnat the
conference had been held with regard to the means
by which Acting Chief Conlin should be promoted
to the office Of Chief and the general scheme Of

The impression is general in Mu.berry-st that
the Board has decided that Acting Chief Conlin
should be made Chief The difficulty about MS
immediate promotion is that the Board cannot APP
point him without his undergoing an eXamnaton'
