PRESS COMMENT.
Let Kelly and McCutchen Answer.


The present editor of the Eagle has not
had the long, continuous experience IN
the editorial harness of which many of
his contemporaries can boast, but some
how he has acquired the habit of thinking
that newspaper ought to be conducted
in the interests of its readers and the
community which gives it support and not
to crafty the personal vanities or enml'
ties of the editor. 1t has occurred to the
Eagle that too much space is sometimes
devoted to explanations and retorts which
are purely personal to the writer and in
which the public has little or no concern,
to the exclusion of matter Of interest to
readers and Importance to the locality
surrounding the Office of the publica-
ton.
In view of our inexperience may we not
inquire of the gentlemen of the press
who have served long and continuously
at the business az to whether or not we
entertain the correct theory on this sub
ject? We ask this because there appear
to be few of our exchanges which are al
most wholly devoted to personal matter
when they, in other respects, are in the
hands of able editors and could aid in
building up their country and become a
pleasure aud profit to their subscribers.
What do the readers of newspaper care
about the personal friends or enemies OF
the editor? 1t seems to us an lnfliction
on them to parade each week a recital of
the editors plques, likes, dislikes and
grievances. White Oaks Eagle.

The legislature of New Mexico appro-
priated funds for branch experimental
station in the Pecos valley. A choice
tract of 100 acres of land near Roswell
has been decided in trust by the people for
the purpose, and there are now in the
territorial treasury something like $4,000
in cash for the purpose of establishing
the new station. Naturally the press and
people of the thrifty Pecos country are
wondering why the enterprise is not 60
ing forward according to the spirit and
intent Of the law.

At, & S, r, REORGANIZATION.

The A., 7. & s. F. plan of reorganiza-
ton, hercuean task as it is, has now so
far advanced as to insure it's success.
That is welcome news which Director
Chas. s. Gleed announces from Topeka.
Inside of ninety days the sale on fore
closure provided for in the very COM
prehensive plan of reorganization will
have been declared by the court and if all
goes well the first of the year will see the
great enterprise ready for transfer from
the hands of the receivers.
It is interesting to note in this con-
nection that the holders of $16,OOO,OOO
Atlantic & Pacific first mortgage bonds
appear determined to press their suit fol
a severance of all relations with the A.,
T. & 8. +. The matter comes up again
in November before the courts, but iu
the event of sale of that property under
foreclosure and the A., r. & 8. F. is not
the successful bidder, as it is likely to be

BRIGGS ONE INTEREST.

Brice is frank, to say the least. 81 have
but one interest in the convention and
that ia to prevent the adoption of free
coinage PLATFORM" said he in New York
in speaking of the Ohio Democratic state
convention, in session to-day. Next to
Indiana, Ohio is the worst boss-ridden
state ia the Union. We shall see what we
shall see. But if Brice should succeed to-
day it will only add ignominy to his
name and increase the disgust felt for
him by all true Democrats ever since he
stood up in the U. 8. senate and knitted
of the sugar trust.

IT'S no small feather in the cap of this
administration that it should have so
successfully negotiated the settlement Of
the Mora claim of $l,500,000 by Spain
after so many years of tardy action by
former administrations. This is protec-
ton to the interests of American citizens
that counts for more than flying war
ships, bristlng bayonets and all the jim
goism imaginable. Now let the Waller
case have close attention.

if things go thus far, then the plan of re-
organization provides for fund of $780,
100000 to enable the A., I. & S. F. to
construct its own independent line to
the Pacific coast. For these and other
reasons the people of the southwest will
display great deal of concern in the
affairs of the Santa Fe company during
the coming few months.

As class, the stockmen of New Mexico
stand as the peers of any set of business
men In the west. They see what is com
ing, realize the value of winter feeding
and proper preparation of their beef SO
that it may be sent direct to the market
and we predict that the long expected
revolution in the cattle industry in New
Mexico is now very near at hand.

ADBANY FALLS BUDGET.

ALBANY FALLS, August 16.-When
the excursion train arrived on Sunday
last the Steamer Metaline was at her
wharf, and soon with a merry party
Of eXcursonists on board she was glid-
ing down our majestic river, returning
in the evening just in time to catch
the train for Spokane.
The past week has not been as
warm as one would naturally expect
for August-usually the warmest Pc
riod of the year-but it has been very
comfortable, the nights rather too
cold as in places the vines and potato
tops show effects of frost. Robins
have taken their homeward flight and
even the crows and ravens seem to
have disappeared. This looks some
thing like an early and long winter.
1t is great pity that this veXa-
tious suit as to section 20 was not al
lowed to be settled at the time set for
it's hearing, as it is believed that
plenty of capital stands ready to be
invested should the land be declared
mineral, and that would mean that
our settlers could get work at home
instead of having to 60 to the Palouse
or Big Bend countries. 1t looks as if
the matter would have to come to tri-
al con it's merits" as the law is plain
and explicit that no title to said land
can be given until passed upon by the
Mineral Commissioners, and any de-
Law in the matter is rank injustice to
the settlers of Northern Idaho. as it
tends to retard the development Of
the country. The honorable commits
sioner of the general land office is at
present responsible for this delay.
