Indiaps nnd Ci,,,,zation.

A notable instance OF the whitening
effect upon the western Indians of the
kind Of civilization with which they
come in contact is in the case of the
Rogue River Indians Of Oregon. In 1852,
when the first white men appeared
among them, there were 800 members
Of the tribe. In November, 1854, one
fourth Of them had died, and their mum.
bers have gradually decreased until, ac-.
cording to ths last census made by the
Indian agent year ago. there were but
"a members of the tribe living Thio
tribe showed no liking for civilized
ways and could not be brought to adopt
them, although the government evident
ly has done all in its power for them
along these lines. New York Srn.

1T WON'T Do.

1t will not do for Juryman Myers, one
of the twelve men who sat in judgment
on the four men charged with the assas-
sination of ex Sheriff Chavez, to come in
at this late day with an affidavit setting
forth that there was error in the handling
of the jury grave enough to affect the
case as it at present stands. IT there was
wrong, as the affidavit alleges, why did
not Juryman Myers come forward before
the verdict was rendered or at the time it
was announced, and unfold his tale Of
woe9 That was his time to speak. He
was sworn to perform solemn duty and
under such oath he as a juror united and
subscribed to the verdict declaring the
accused men guilty as charged" He can
not now, at this late day, come into court
and undertake by such an affidavit, ap-
parently cooked up for the occasion by
parties interested in evad:ng justice
through the instrumentality of bubbles
and Aimsy technicallties, and impeach his
action as juror sworn to do equal and
exact justice. It won't do.

Colorado to fully participate in these
obvious benefits is the construction of
competing lines of railroad to Calves
ton. This suggests the Importance OF
the early extension of the Denver & Rio
Grande system from Santa Fe southwark
to Cerrlllos. thence to Albuquerque aud
down the Rio Grande, and finally forming
an independent connection with Calves
ton.
The building of the line down the Rio
Grande, as its name plainly implies, was
questionably contemplated by Gen.
Palmer, Gov. Hunt and the other origi-
nal promoters of the road, but compiled
tions growing out of the desperate con
test with the Santa Fe over the right of
way through the Grand canon of the Ar
kansas and other causes resulted in the
abandonment of the southern line at Es-
pamela, and Denver's direct connection
with Santa Fe was only secured by the
construction of the Texas, Santa Fe d
|
Northern road, chiefly through local en-
terprise, from this city to Espanola.
The recent purchase of the latter road
by the Denver g. Rio Grande people, the
manifest feasibility and desirability of
the extension of the line southwark from
this city, and the we'll known enterprise
and energy of Denver in reaching out for
new business, together with the fact that
President Jeffrey is known to be in Eu-
rope negotiating bonds for the construc-
tion of new lines, afford rather substan-
| tial foundation for the belief that the
Denver & Rio Grande will soon actively
enter the New Mexico field and ultimately
| form a trunk line connection with the
! gulf

ORIGINAL ma Canahlp,

The man, James A. Reavis, who origin
ated and worked up the Peralta land
grant scheme, is certainly one of the most
remarkable men this country ever pro-
duced. The conception of so gigantic a
fraud; the careful, pains-taking, intelli-
gent manner in which link after link in
the claim was forged and welded into a
continuous chain of plausible but ficti-
tious occurrences, carrying conviction to
many of even the best legal minds; the
persistence, patience, perseverance, with
which the purpose has been pursued,
through untold difficulties and enormous
expenses-all these and many other
characteristics which Reavis has dis
played, and that too in high degree of
each quality, mark his as one of the most
original and capable minds this genera
tion has produced.-L Vegas Optic.
