Charlie Moore Turns Fighter

Editor Charles Moore, Of the Blue
Grass Blade, has changed his role and
intends that people shall understand
that he is no longer posing as non-
combatant. Ex-Mayor j. Hull DAY.
idson, of Lexington, took umbrage
at paragraph in Moore's paper and
proceeded to do him up OH tuesday
last. Davidson made an assault on
Moore, and was not little surprised
when the 'infdep met him in 80 Wig
orous a manner that the ex-Mayor
was fain to have recourse to his pls.ol.
Moore invited Davidson to put up his
weapon and he would give him a good
thrashing.
At call from the crowd that had
been drawn together, by the melee,
Davidson pat up his; gun. and Moore
was proceeding to give him good
drubbing, when they were separated.
Davidson was released on bond, but
Moore, although. thel attacked party,
spent the night in jail rather.than give
bond.
This is the paragraph at which
Davidson took umbrage Il
"But when a heightened Christian
gentleman steals $l4.7l366 out of the
treasury of the city of Lexington, it's
thought to be a smart trick; the man
who is suspected is never brought TO
trial, and he is just as popularsand re-
spectacle as ever. "

Wonderful Twins.

Two Crescent Hill young ladies
twins, are known far and wide for
he wonderful similarity of their ap.
pearance. Many tales are told of the
wonderful complications that arise
from the resemblance, but the best was
told me yesterday by young lady
friend of theirs. "When Mamie and
Minnie were babies" she said, 'the
only way they could be distinguished
was by tying a red ribbon on Ma
mics arm and blue ribbon on Min
ME, and then the mother was some
times driven to distraction when she
forgot the meaning of the colors.
Their father cannot tell them apart
even now, and when he wishes to adj
dress one he always calls both names
But the funniest thing of all is that
the girls cannot tell themselves apart,
and when either OF them look in the
mirror she is unable to tell whether
she is herself or her sister" -Louis-

The DANE BANKS.

The Silver City Enterprise is on the
right track. 1t wants action on the Dane
banks receivershlp, a matter the New
MEXICAN has frequently alluded to during
the past year. The Enterprise desires
Delegate Catron to drop around and "call
the attention of the comptroller to the
manner in which the recelvership of the
national banks of Deming and Silver City
is conducted. For two years past two
men have been steadily employed (f) I'M
der salary, scarcely collecting enough
during that time to pay the salary. Num-
erous expensive lawsuits have been in
stltuted against insolvent debtors, ap-
parently as pretext 10 continue the re-
ceivers in place, until these suits had
dragged through the courts. In most
suits brought by the receiver the costs
accruing and expenses of receiver have
been greater than the amount recovered.
In other cases where cases should have
been compromised, to the benefit of the
banks, the compromise has been refused
and the whole amount at stake has been
lost to the creditors. The apparent in
tent of the receiver is solely to prolong
his term of office regardless of the inter
ests of the creditors of these banks"

about perfected scheme "for the pur-
pose of assisting the cattle raisers in
Nebraska to carry their stock through
bad seasons without being compelled to
sell at disadvantage on account of the
lack of ready money or the scarcity of
feed" This is cool. 1t simply means
that the beef combine is moving right
into the range country to fasten its ten
tacles upon the live stock industry-and

courage, in his annual report, to utter
word against the growing power of this

that only "natural born citizens" are

commissioners in the negotiations, viii
also be ON hand.
Mr.. Kurino has not yet received any

Japanese representative. The minister
