Communication From Grand

EDITORS BULLETIN:-It seems to
the writer that there is a great deal
of anxiety and interest being shown
and taken in regard to the present
financial condition of our country
at this time.
1t seems that sound money is
what we need, and since we are
one of the first among the civilized
nations of the earth, that We should
be content to work in concert with
them on such an important measure.
1t seems also that we are going
too far from home to find fault with
extravagant legislation. IT'S the
opinion of the writer were we to in
vestigate closely the fnancering of
our State, County and Corporate
authorities in proportion to the
amount of money they handle as
compared with the congress of
these United States, we would be
in a better position to correct and
demand of that body more econOmi-
cal expenditures of the public mon
ey. Lets encourage the cash sys-
TEN and quit paying 800 in the
fall for $50 worth of merchandise
we bought in the spring.
Lets raise commodities for our
table and dictate to the financial
world what it shall pay for the ne
cessities of life. Let us look to our
own resources, which are unques-
tionably the most inexhaustible of
any people on the habitable globe,
and show to the world that we are
an independent people and do not
look for parental aid from our
government, but rather show to that
government that we are self-sustain-
ing, loyal and proud of the flag of
our country.
Let us stop the abuse of our lead
ers. While some of us do not
agree with them all along the line,
yet we can certainly indorse them
more fully than we could those who
we have fought so bitterly for the
past thirty years.
!! The principles of our party will
live forever and with all her faults
she bears the palm away and is the
grandest of them ALL / am proud
that / was rocked in a democratic
cradle and hope to be buried in a
democratic grave.

.4th, the following language

oath, the following language
appears:
"Our highest officials are
endeavoring to persuade us
that it is the right policy to
destroy one-half of our sup
ply of money. Surely such
a policy could only spring
from insanity, imbecility or
villiany. No one will accuse
the gold schemers Of imbecil-
ity or insanity"
The inference is, according
to the above, that the men
who oppose the free and un-
limited coinage are Williams.
1t seems that the pale metal
worshippers' supply of argu-
ment has been entirely ex-
hausted, and that they are now
forced to indulge in abuse
and Misrepresentation to fire
the popular heart. If the
BULLETIN is not very much
mistaken, the advocates oil
sound money throughout
the United States stand
about as high in public esti-
nation as any class of men
we know of. This is the
first time we have ever heard
them classed as Williams.

THERE are some people who
believe that no silver bull
ion is being coined into dol
lars, but that is not true. The
monthly coinage statement
of the director of the mint
shows that during last month
$40, SOB dollars of silver was
coined and of the silver coin
age $50, $50 was in standard
dollars. So long as Cleve-
land is president, silver will
continue to be coined in such
quantities as the government
will be able to keep the two
metals on a parity.

SENATOR STUART was one

SENATOR STUART was one
of the senators who voted for
the bill in 1874 that repeal
ed the law authorizin g the
free coinage of silver, but
there is not a stronger advo-
cate now of free coinage in
all the land than he. When
the law was repealed, the
commercial value of Az 1-2
grains of silver was worth
about two or three cents
more than a dollar, hence
the profit was greater to the
owners of silver mines when
bullion was sold in it's crude
state than when coined. But
now that the price of silver
bullion has fallen to such an
extent that Alp 1-2 grains is
worth only about 81 cents,
the owners of silver mines
are very anxious for congress
to pass a free coinage law at
Is to / so that "a cents ofsil-
yer might pass for 81. 90. Of
course the silver mine own
ers would bitterly oppose the
coinage of the two metals at
40 to !, nor would there be
any silver coined at that rae
ito unless there is a further
decline in the price of silver
bullion, simply because it
would be to the interest of
the silver mine owners to dis
pose of their bullion in its I'M
coined state. If gold is I'M
dervalued, the same consider
alton would prevent the own
ers of gold mines from keep
ing their gold in this coun-
try if it would command a
better price elsewhere. This
is why bimetalism cannot be
maintained unless the bullion
value of the two metals are
kept on equality. To est .b>
lish bimetalism in any other
way is as much of an ilnpos-
sibility as for a merchant to
sell domestic at 10centsa yard
when another merchant adj
joining him offers the same
quality of goods for five
cents a yard. In order forboth
merchants to sell the same
qua ity of goods their prices
must be equal and in order
for gold and silver dollars to
circulate in the same country
their bullion value must be
the same. If not the cheap
er metal will drive out the
dearer just as certain as a
merchant who sells domestic
at 5 cents a yard would drive
out of business a merchant
of the same place who would
ask 10 cents a yard FOR the
same quality of goods. If the
people of France, Germany
or those Of any other nation
atty would take all the man.

HAIL, THE BEAUTIFUL.
The Snow King Reigns Throughout
New Mexico and Insures a Pros
porous Business Season.

The bright sun came up at the ap-
pointed hour this morning, accompanied
by two of the prettiest little sun-dogs-a
rarity in these parts-and when it's genial
rays had penetrated the frost-ladened
air the average citizen breathed sigh of
relief. Three days without sunshine
seldom come to Santa Fe. The storm
resulted in covering the Santa Fe valley
with ID $40 inches of snow.
On the headwaters of the Rio Hondo
and the Chimiso about three feet is the
depth of the snow. On the. Los Alamos
grant, at Delgado's ranch, it is two feet;
south and east of Lamy, according to
parties who reached the city this morn
ing, snow is nearly three feet deep on the
level, and there is some suffering among
young stock.
Twenty miles east in the Santa Fe
mountains 1t ls from four to ten feet in
depth and the canons and ravines, ma
lures own storage reservoirs, are packed
in places for a depth of twenty feet.
Throughout the Cochiti district there is
three to fourAeet of snow. At Las Vegas
and all over northeastern New Mexico
the fall is from seven to ten inches. At
Albuquerque snow reached the unusual
depth of six inches. At Silver City it is
five inches deep. In fact, every section
of New Mexico appears to have been sin
it" and the business benefits are beyond
all computation.

The Pharmacists.

The territorial board of pharmacy
seems to have had right smart business
before it's recent OF ecutive session. Among
other things, sundry charges were fled
against Charles M. Dreamer for violating
the territorial pharmacy law in that. it
was alleged that drugs had been at one
time dispensed from his store in Santa
Fe by person not authorized to do SO.
The charges were made by A. 9. Ireland,
jr., Adolph j. Fischer and G. NJ. Norton,
the latter being the person who professed
to have unlawfully dispensed the drugs.
After careful hearing of the persons in
terested and examination of the evidence
in the case, the charges we're laid on the
table and Mr.. Dreamer was unanimously
exonorated from blame in the premises.
Mr.. Creamer was not present when this
action was taken.

The House.
THIS roRENooN's SESSION.


Upon the conclusion of the reading of
the journal, Mr.. Martin entered an ap-
peal from the decision of the chair, made
Yesterday to the effect that it required a
two-thirds vote of the whole house to
pass bill over the governors veto and
he argued forcibly in favor of the appeal,
calling attention to the rules prevailing
in the national congress.
Mr.. Christy thought as reversal of
the chairs ruling was in effect passage
of the bill over the governors veto, it
should require a two-thirds vote to sus-
tain an appeal from the decision of the
chair.
The speaker cited in support of his pO-
sition section 1912 of the organic act,
which makes it necessary to secure a
two thirds vote of each house in order to
override veto. He said that in the
opinion of able lawyers the legal men,
bership of the house was twenty-four, so
that it requires vote of sixteen to pass
the resolution over the veto.
The chair was reversed by a vote of
to 10, Messrs. V. G. de Baca, Carr, Clan
cey, Christy, Hinkle, Locke, Mora and
Thompson voting in favor of sustaining
the chair.
sDoes this pass the resolution over the
governors veto" inquired Mr.. Carr.
SIT Does" said Mr.. Speaker. "What
effect it will have on the constitutiopality
of the resolution is another question"
Mr.. Martin here presented communi-
cation from the territorial employees of
II 81 nj IN "a
of their employment, the difficulties sur
rounding the attainment of their CON-
pensation, at the same time thanking
their friends for the assistance rendered
them in the matter. The communication
ends by rendering their designations to
! take effect upon their payment in full to
date. The signatures Of all the employees
except House Committee Clerk j. @.
Sears is appended.
Mr.. Martin thought that immediate &C.
ton should be taken in the matter, stat
ing, however, that he hoped not single
mpleye would resign.
MIR. Sanchez was also heartily in favor
of taking action.
Mr.. Carr said that he was in favor of
the payment in full of all employees. He
! thought, however, that there we're too
many employees and that the unnecessary
ones should be discharged. Mr.. Carr
moved the reference of the communica-
tion to the committee on rules that they
might take appropriate action.
| Mr.. Martin said that Mr.. Carr was very
inconsistent in that he favored the pay
ment of employees at the same time that
he considered such payment unconstitu-
tional. He also attacked the governors
veto and concluded by request to with
draw the memorial from the employees,
presumably to arrange for more prompt
action in their behalf than could be Sc
cured by the reference to a committee of
the matter.
Mr.. Pine spoke earnestly in favor of
the employees.
Mr.. Martin then moved that the me-
mortal be spread upon the minutes of
the house which was ordered without OBJ
| lection.
Mr.. Martin moved that the resignation
of the employees be not accepted.
Mr.. Christy raised the point of order
that the designations we're not to take
effect until the employees had been paid
