In reply to letter from Hon. e. s.
Slower, of this city, Gov. Thornton writes
as follows:
Santa Fe, N. NJ, Aug. II, 1895.
Gov. E. S. Slower, Old Albuquerque, N. M:
Ny Dear GOVERNOR am in receipt Of
your favor of the 18th inst, and you can
depend upon me to use all my efforts and
influence to prevent any bull fight OCCUR
ring during the irrigation convention and
Albuquerque fair.
l am of the opinion that such an exhl-
bition would greatly tend to destroy the
moral influence and effect both OF the ralr
and the irrigation congress.
We live in an age of progress, and we
should undertake to impress this upon
the visitors, and not that we are a half
civilized people enjoying the sports that
have been abandoned by nearly every
civilized nation of the world.
Very respectfully,
W. T. THORNTON. Governor.
The people of Albuquerque will all join
with the Citizen in extending thanks and
heartfelt congratulations to Gov. Thorn
ton for the expression of the sentiments
in the foregoing letter and everyone who
has regard for the good name of the
country will rejoice to know that we can
depend upon the chief executive OF the
territory to prevent the reputation OF New
Mexico from being blackened by any OF
those "sports that have been abandoned
by nearly every civilized nation OF the
world. '-Albuquerque Citizen.

The st. Johnsbury Republican, pub
Iished in the town where lives the
wealthy gentleman who was recently
confined in the workhouse for selling
rum, does not take much stock in the
talk about a high license tidal wave
in the legislature next year. 1t re-
marks:
The prospect of any high rising tide
in opposition to the present prohib-
itory law is decidedly slim, and a
great deal of the talk that has been

opinion which the people of the state
have regarding that law as compared

In estimating the relative impor-
tance Of the home and foreign mar
kets to our agriculturists it needs only
be said that our corn crop alone nets
the farmer sum equal to our entire
exports of manufacturing, forests,
fisheries, mining and all other agri-
culture. Our corn crop in 1891
amount to 1896, 439, ,22S, our hay crop
in 1894 to S468, ,57s, ,321, our most val
liable cotton crop in 1892 to 5000, 1896,
500.
Seldom do our aggregate imports
and exports combined equal in value
these three crops alone. The entire
annual earnings of the industries of
the country may be estimated at fif-
teen billions of dollars annually, and
of this our aggregated imports and
exports form one-tenth. The other
nine teDths are the home market for
American products and American la
Dor.

A writer has been specializing as to
who are the six richest men in the
world. The result of his investigation
is Ii Hung Chang is the richest man
on earth with 100000, 900 to his cred
it. The second richest man is John
D. Rockefeller with $1S0,O0O, 900 and is
the wealthiest man in America. The
others, the Duke of Westminster and
Colonel North, Englishmen, and Cor
nelius Vanderbilt and the Chinese tea
merchant, Woh Qua, are each given
S1OO,OOO,OOO.
"Only two, Cornelius Vanderbilt and
the Duke of Westminster, inherited
their wealth. The rest made it. What
John D. Rockefeller and his associates
did with petroleum in the United
States, Woh Qua did with tea in China,
monopolized it. Colonel North, now
the close friend of the Prince of
Wales, could not read or write when
he was Il years old. He learned the
trade of boiler riveting and knocked
about the world. Finally he saw his
opportunity in a monopoly of the nj
trate fertilizing beds of Peru, and
made his hundred million easily.n

Vermonters in general have been
led to believe that the roads in their
native state are about as bad as they
make roads in this country but unless
one man is mistaken that impression is
decidedly wrong. There arrived in
Boston last Sunday evening young
man who left New Orleans March IA
to make tour of the coast and bor-
der line of the United States on BIZ
cycle. This means trip of p, 900
miles. Twelve thousand miles of the
journey have already been accom-
plished, the plucky bicyclist has
travelled from New Orleans to the
Pacific coast and from Seattle to Ban
gor and yet he states that the best
roads he has seen are in Vermont and
Maine.

Commander in Chief Walker, when
asked as to his intention of taking
measures toward the institution of a
test case to establish the claim that a
pension is vested right, said that he
would Go SO as early as possible.
"There is no question in my mind, y
he said "that the courts will hold that
a pension is vested right when the
matter is brought to their attention,
and it is my intention to proceed at
once toward the institution of test
case in order to secure a ruling. The
suit will be brought in the federal
courts as soon as possible. First, how
ever, I shall have to consult with
the council of administration,
and details of the suit must be settled
after they and [ have met This will
take some little time, but the matter
will be rushed as rapidly as can be.
II feel that it is due to old soldiers
and members of the Grand Army that
measures be taken to bring the mat
Ger to an issue, and that every means
possible be utilized to secure recogni-
ton of the courts. You can say posi-
lively the test case will be tested and
vigorously contested, even to the
highest court of judicature."

The late republican convention, held
in the State of New York last week,
did itself credit by putting into it's
platform plank which declared, ,prac-
tically, for the American Sabbath and
Sunday closing OF the saloons in New
York. To do this might seem to be
an easy thing. but when it is known
that it will array against the party the
great liquor powers, all the drinking
men, all the criminal classes and the
friends of Satan himself, it will be
seen that it is liable to result in the
defeat of the party at the polls. It is
always best and wisest to do right and
let the consequences take care of
themselves, but politicians are made
of pretty good stuff when they have
the courage to ALLEVIATE great voting
power and voting class that they may
put plank into their platform which.
though right, invites defeat. The is
sue comes before the two parties on
account of the enforcement of the
Sunday closing laws in the City of
New York. The law was made by a
democratic legislature, with no tho,t
that it would ever be executed: but
when the great overturn took place
and new men took hold of affairs. the

A GRAND ARMY ENCAMPMENT.

An unexpected number of veterans
| gathered last week at the national
encanlpment of the Grand Army at
| Louisville. On Tuesday, the first show
day, it was thought that there were
more than 100000 in the city, regis
tered IN camps, school houses, hotels
and private houses. The event of the
day was an annual reunion and parade
of the x-sailors. Eclat was given to
the turnout by the co operation of the
ex- prisoners of war and the survivors
of the celebrated Mississippi river
ram feet, which took part in the Miss
issippi, Yazoo, and Red rivers, as
well as in the great naval battle be-
fore Memphis.
Wednesday was the day Of the grand
parade of the veterans and $4,000 of
them marched through the streets
while 40, 900 spectators looked on, ad-
mired, and cheered. The New Eng
land delegations, the Vermonters
among them, marched in the third di-
vision. Four sturdy New Hampshire
veterans carried cage containing
the department mascot, an immense
white eagle which had been in cap
tivity for several years.
The pleasuse of the day was greatly
marred by an accident to the Louis
vile Legion, which, in the morning,
was taking a gun to Phoenix hill to fire
salute during the parade. The am
munition in the caission exploded,
killing four men and wounding sever
al others.
The address of welcome from Col.
Watterson of the Courier Journal and
an confederate was received with
vociferous applause. So overcome
was the speaker that at the close he
broke into tears.
General I. III. Walker of Indianapo-
lis .zl elected Commander-in- chief,
and Gen. E. H.Hobson of Greensburg,
KY, senior vice commander. The
next place of meeting will be st. Paul,
Mimi.
The total membership at the pres
ent time, according to the report, is
110,774, or total gain of 35, ,696 mem
bers over last year. The amount ex-
pended in relief is $64,9 1863. The total
amount expended during the year, in
Guiding relief and current expenses,
was $1Ss, 1929, while the total amount
of relief furnished since its organiza-
tiO11 is 81 21O 500

In reply to the demands of the SPIN
ners in New Bedford for an increase
in wages, the cloth manufacturers say
that they can not assent to any in
crease until the market price for the
finished cloth has advanced in some
thing like the same proportion as the
prices of the raw material of which it
is made have advanced. Here is a
reason which invites the candid exam
ination of the spinners. It is based
on facts which they can readily prove
or disprove, as the truth may be.
Will they meet it like men and wo
men of intelligence, or merely like

law was put in force and the saloons
were closed on Sunday. Senator Hill
has taken position, as he might be
expected to, against the enforcement
of the law and his party will follow.
The next campaign will be heated
one. 1t will be Hill, democracy and
the rum power against all the better
elements of the State. 1t is devoutly
hoped that the right will prevail.

break off these and race under con-

There is a curious story that comes
from Italy to the effect that there is a
proposition on foot for that kingdom
to set apart a small district with a
seaport, to be sold to the Catholic
church for a temporal dominion for
the Pope, under a protective guaran-
ty by Italy and that the church thro'-
out the world shall contribute one
thousand million dollars to pay for it,
the result being to restore the tempor
al power of the papacy and at the
same time lift Italy out of bankrupt
cy. This looks like a pretty round
ransom for the church to pay to re
deem it's head, but it may possibly, be
carried out. But will the church ever
be content with any other capital
than Rome? If so, can it any longer
be called the Roman Catholic church?
