NOT FEIIERED BY LEADING STRINGS.

An eastern Photographer, whose know
ledge of the west was doubtless acquired
through a telescope poked little end
first out of his Office window, remarks
that there are hardly enough Democrats
in Colorado to hold a coroner's inquest,
Yet two of the nblest and most useful
executives Colorado ever had, Cows. j.
B. Grant and Alva Adams, were simon
pure Democrats, nominated by straight
out Democratic conventions and hand
somely elected several years before the
silver question became factor in the
politics of the state. II is true that the
party there was somewhat demoralized
by the ridiculous Waite fasco, but the
men who voted for Cows. Grant and
Adams have not moved ont of the state
and will gladly vote for such Democrats
again if afforded the opportunity to do

Albuquerque Enterprise.

It would be we'll FOR the people of
Santa Fe, Albuquerque and other New
Mexico towns to stir up statement in
favor of an extension of the Rio Grande
Into this territory. We make this sug-
gestion entirely on our own RESPONSE
bility and without being able to express
an opinion concerning what the Rio
Grande people intend to do. But it is
evident that the chances of their extend
ing the system into the interior of New
Mexico would be improved by the de-
velopment of strong sentiment showing
that the road will be welcome addition
to the railroad system of that part of the
southwest.-Denver Republican.
1t is difficult to imagine what more the
people OF this country could do to "stlr
up a sentiment in favor of an extension
of the Denver & Rio Grande into this
territory, than they have been doing for
the last ten years, and we are also at a
loss to know how the sentiment in favor
of such an extension could be better
than it is at present.
There is no enterprise that has ever
been talked about here that is more
unanimously and enthusiastically in
dorsed by our people, and none that they
more earnestly desire to see accomplished.
1t is not matter of sentiment with them,
but one of business, as they have already
demonstrated by placing their signature
to paper pledging $4,000 as sub
scription to the road. That, we know,
would not be heavy subscription for
city the size of Denver, but it is a gen
erous subscription for a town no larger
than Albuquerque, and states, much
palmer than any words could express it,
the interest that is felt by the people of
this community in the enterprise re.
ferred to.-Albuquerque Democrat.

"'Tis True Ills Pity, Pity 'Tis IT'S
True"

One often hears the remark that "the
papers tell all they know only when it
suits their convenience; they're afraid to-
This ia In measure true. However,
there are indeed few communities, indi-
vidually and collectively, that have not
reason, though 10th to acknowledge it, to
be thankful that the press doesn't give
prominence to all it knows. An exchange
truly says:
"a preacher once said that newspaper
that told the truth, and the whole truth,
could not be a pecuniary success. The
preacher who at all times and under all
circumstances tells the whole truth about
the members of his congregation, alive or
dead, might not occupy the pulpit more
than one Sunday, and in some cases might
find it convenient to leave town. The
press and the pulpit go hand in hand with
the whitewash brush and pleasant words,
magnifying little virtues into big ones.
1t is very seldom that the preacher or the
printer magnifies the crimes of the human
race; our sins are black enough without
exaggeration. The pulpit, the press and
the gravestone are the great saint making
triumvirate." Eddy Current.

cratic party pursues the wise course on
the silver question. No greater delusion
was ever INDUCED than that the bright
and brainy people of Colorado, or, for
the matter, of that of any other western
state or territory, are lot of hide-bound
political bigots, welded to mere histori-
cal names and governed by post mortem
prejudices. The really independent voter,
who fearlessly thinks and acts for him
self, is unquestionably more in evidence
in the far west than elsewhere in the
union. He is not fettered by leading
strings of any kind. His influence will
be felt in 1896.

The Santa Fe city authorities had best
look at once into the why's and wherefores
of certain big tax payers refusing to pay
the city public school tax. 1t seems that
some sharp lawyers have given it as their
opinion that tho tax is illegal. 1t isn't
pleasant to contemplate that some fatal
defect in the law may paralyze the public
school work in every corporate town In
the territory. Let's have light on this all
important subject.

The prettiest sort of fight is now go

Quay and Mckinley are all on the de-

should succeed. The Democracy is not los

No Shadow Of Doubt,

We give this week the confession Of two
of the murderers of the ex-sheriff of Santa
Fe county, Francisco Chavez, on May 20,
1892, who are now lying in the Santa Fe
jail under sentence of death. This con-
fession leaves now no shadow of doubt
as to the right men paying the penalty
for such foul and cold-blooded murder.
The confession is lengthy and takes up
great deal of space; but notwithstanding
we print it thinking it will be read with
interest by our readers.-EddY Independ-

The Railroad Bonds.

There appears to be mistaken idea
that the recent ruling made by Judge
Bantz in passing upon the demurrer in
the railroad bond case was final decis-
ion and that the bonds are consequently
illegal. The fact of the matter is that
the litigation to test the legality of the
bonds is in its earliest stages and it is
certain to be some time before the matter
is finally determined. 1t 10 a good thing
all around that the case has been taken
into the courts, as final decision will re-
move all doubt upon the sub ect and give
the taxpayers definite knowledge as to
whether they are paying legal tax or
not.-Deming Headlight.

uWoman'' or "Lady?"

The title of lady, like any other title,
is of value only as it expresses personal
refinement or the privilege of an excep-
tional class. AS it is used among us at
present it means nothing. I noticed
during many years of service in coun-
ty prison that the prisoners called each
other ladies'" while another visitor and
myself enjoyed the transferable epithet
of @the other women"
"Will you hand this comb to the lady
in the next cell?" asked prisoner one
day, and the errand was executed with
all speed. Since that time I have not
been eager to claim the title of lady.
Once, looking out upon Fifth avenue,
New York, on a Sunay morning after
church, asked why every one walked
on one sidewalk, leaving theAther free
for the use of few rational folks.
''That used to be the fashionable side
of the avenue" said my companion, "but
now every one crowds onto that side
walk, and so the distinction no longer
exists"
All very amusing and very natural,
but it makes one long for some distin-
gushing code of behavior which shall
express refinement.
No one can have good manners, no
matter how sound her creed may be-,
who is anxious to attract notice or quick
to imagine affronts. Courtesy initiates
humanity. and only needs to be genuine
in it's 1nodesty and kindness to create a
noble behavior which is independent Of
external rivileges.-Emma Forbes Ca

Family Scrap Book.

1.-THE scrap book, as I had always I'M
derstood it, said a citizen, meant a
collection of various things, poetry, re-
ceipts, accounts of strange events, what
ever was novel and interesting in the
view Of the collector; or it meant a COL
lection of clippings preserved by the
writer of them; but have seen lately a
scrap book Of a somewhat different
character which was quite novel to me,
and certainly of great interest to those
whom it concerned. This was family
scrap book concerning whatever had ap-
peared in print about the members Of
the family, and extending back to a
time before the war. "'
Sometimes 1t is a simple death mo-
tice from among the advertisements, but
telling it's story perfectly to those who
know; or it may be an obituary-notice.
Perhaps it is paragraph telling of an
accident to some member of the family
or the illness of one, personal news con-
tanned in clippings from newspapers
from various parts Of the country, as the
family grew up; a sort of family record
that to those concerned increased in in
terest as the years went by"

/. land. .H

Z land. tf &
The only Liberal Home Secretary that
England has had Of recent years was Sic
William Harcourt, gentleman whose
conspicuous talents in debate observed
the humber virtues OF the administration.
He had to govern in troublous times
while the gospel Of dynamite was peal
ing through the air, joining In unholy
diapason with the sound Of cannon thtin-
der in Egypt and South Africa. Hence,
when Mr.. AsQuitb came to the Home
Office, everything combined to give him
a unique opportunity to make the change
for which the time was fully ripe. Yet
no onescould have impressed a great idea
upon the public mind with less of the
histrionic art. Indeed, Mr.. AsQulsn,ss
only art has been the art of concsaling
art, which, indeed, may be regarded az
the very essence and consnrnznatfon ct
art. He has been the first Home Mip-
lister to make the Home Office worthy OF
its name and designation. 1t has been
the Office Of the home. It has been done
