THE oovEsson's MESSAGE.

Gov. McGraw's biennial message to the
legislature is considered a strong and
timely document by all parties. He
strongly recommends retrenchment ard
economy In all state departments and
appropriations. He shows that the in
debtedness OF the state is now over a
million and half dollars. and the reve-
nues greatly reduced on account OF the
hard times. Altogether 1T Is a timely
message. and one that the lawmakers
would do well to heed. Stevenson Pio-
neer.
The message OF Gov. McGraw to the leg
isIature was read before that body In
joint session last Monday. The document
Is OF unusual length and covers great
many pertinent subjects. His suggestions
are wise and timely. and IL acted upon by
our lawmakers by proper and iudiclous
legislation. great benefits will result to
the people OF the state. In his message
the governor stands for retrencament and
reform in all branches Of state and mu-
nicipal government. dwelling forclbIy
upon the needs OF radical amendments to
laws regulating court procedure In civn
and criminal actions. The ends Of jus
tice, he declares. too often miscarry on
account Of cumbersome statutes and III
applied practice. making the cost OF ll,i-
CATION so great that the poor are WITH
ally barred from seeking relief through
the courts. The governor also suggests
sensible reforms In cur revenue laws,
a1vocstes biennial assessments OF prop
erty. the looping OF OF many state ex-
ps1aituves. the abolition OF superfiuous
funds and the turning OF such idle moneys
iato the general fund for the redemption
OF current warrants. stringent banking
law, revision OF our road iaw. reduction
Of transportation rates and fares. and
many other pertinent suggestions which
every oae will approve to the letter who

Of the gold rsssrye. He asks authority

body successfully.
The Republican press and party will
with uuanimity take issue with the
president IN MS diagnosis Of the real
trouble and the remedy proposed. He
alleges That It u lack Of confidence

pay It's obligations fn gold and Gays that
tho only way left open to the gov

sue and sale OF bonds. such loss OF
confidence as exists Is not in the ability
OF the government TO meet Its obliga-
lions, but In the ability or disposition
Of the Democratic party to adopt means
wherewith to provide sufficient revenue.
Were the revenue sufficient to pay
current obligations mo loss OF conf
dence would have been noted or have
existed. To the persistent attack upon
the industries of the country and the
depreciation OF the revenues consequent
thereon IL mainly attributable such lack
Of confidence as may exist In respect
Of the ability OF the government to
pay its debts.
An issue Of bonds b not ''the only
way left open" for procuring gold. The
first and better way would be to take
immediate steps to increase the reve-
nue. BY at FEAST 800. ooo, 900 annually.

status OF the Cattle and sheep
Market at Chicago.

Chicago, Aug. S.-Matured cattle are
especially scarce, and there is lively de-
mand for feeding cattle in this market,
but good feeders suitable for early finish
ing are few and far between. Fat natives
are good enough to sell above IS, and
are selling readily at better prices
than those of last week, some sales show
ing an advance of zoe per 100 pounds.
Western rangers are unusually fat and
sell briskly at remarkably good prices.
Dressed-beef men are buying most of
these cattle, but eastern shippers are
taking few of them. Common rangers
are weakening, but desirable lots are
strengthened by the great scarcity of
good native corn-fed cattle, and sales
have been made in the last few days as
high as $4.s5 O. $40 In few instances.
The Texas cattle receipts last week
reached about 1000 head, an increase of
1000 over the previous week, and a de.
crease of 5,4OO as compared with the cor-
responding week of 1894.
About $4,000 sheep were received last
week against 66,538 for the previous
week, salable at $3.50 @ 4.25, according
to quality, and lambs we're held at 50 @
$50 for poor to the best. Exporters have
taken few sheep at $3 q 4.

The frequency of disasters from floods
in New Mexico of late has proved the
wisdom of the races which inhabited this
portion of the country before its settle
ment by Europeans' in building their
towns in elevated places out of the reach
of floods. People who have had the
curiosity to examine the ruins of these
villages have noticed that they are in
variably located in high places entirely
out of the way of flood. Had the practice
of the people been followed by the build

disasters which have overtaken these
places could not have occurred. Silver
