THE NEW JUDICIAL PLAN
Recommendation of Gov. Thornton
as Expressed in His Annual
Report.

The governors annual report to the
secretary of the interior, which bears date
of Oct. Is, and copies of which we're re-
ceived from Washington yesterday, closes
with this paragraph bearing on subject
of much interest to New Mexicans at this
time:
II desire to call your attention to the
formation of our present supreme court,
which is composed entirely of district
judges. In my opinion it is bad policy
for the court of last resort to be CON-
posed of trial judges, for, while it is true
no judge sits in the supreme court upon
a case which he has tried below, II is GER
tainly fact, we'll established from ex-
perience in the past, that they too often
exert an influence upon their associates
on questions arising before them, and,
upon cases appealed from the various
districts, each Judge feels an inter
est in having his own decision af-
6rmed, which is an inducement for
each to sustain the other. This sys-
tenn has been in existence for many years
10 the different territories and has in the
past proved, in many cases, very vicious;
and 10 view of the further fact that the
trial judges Of the territory have now
more work than it is possible for them
to perfom, and are now in some districts
several years behind with their trial
docket, would respectfully recommend
the creation Of court Of last resort, to
be com posed Of three or Ave judges, to
act for the three remaining territories of
Oklahoma, New Mexico aud Arizona,
with the right Of appeal thereto from the
district courts of the several territories"

President Cleveland's message to con-

New MEXICAN was the talk of the town
last night, as it must have been the world
over. Nothing but commentator is
heard for the presidents stand. During
the evening Acting Governor Miller had a
telegraphic inquiry from W. R. Hearst's
great New York daily, asking for an ex-
preston on the biect as to the feeling
Of the people in New Mexico. He imme-
diately wired as follows:
w. R. Hearst, Editor New York Journal.
Santa Fe, N. NJ, Dec. 17.-In reply to
your inquiry will say, and, think, safely,
that public opinion in New Mexico heart
ily indorses President Cleveland's Vene-
zuela message.
While 60 per cent of New Mexico's
population is native, or Spanish speak
ing people, they, like the remainder OF
our people, are truly American IN spirit
and believe in the Monroe doctrine.

HEALER AT Aqua FRA.
Spent the Night There and Left Early
To-day for the Rio Grande--
Greeted by Crowds.

Schlatter, the healer, spent Yesterday in
the San Ildefonso neighborhood, and
about o'clock last evening showed UP
in lower Aqua Fria. Here he stopped
over night at the house of a relative Of
Joe Cortez, of this city. The people OF
the village were on the lookout for him
and news of his arrival quickly spread
bringing great crowd to greet the mys-
terious man. 1t was near midnight be-
fore the last seeker after light and CON-
fort left the house.
This morning early wore to the above
effect was brought to town and several
parties were preparing to go out to Aqua
Fria and interview the healer, when a
messenger arrived saying that Schlatter
had gone. He shook the crowd as soon
IA possible and pulled ont down the Pena
Blanca road, stopping probably at noon
at Hon. Nasario Gonzales home. 1t is
thought he will spend the night at Pena
Blanca, and thence continue his journey
slowly south tomorrow, passing through
the Bernalillo county valley settlements
in reaching Albuquerque.
Later-Mr. j ose Antonio Romero called
on the NEW MEXICAN this afternoon to
say that he and several hundred others
shook hands with the healer at Jose A,
Montoya's house, Aqua Fria, between
and 6 O'Clock last evening. Schlatter left at
Z O'Clock this morning, saying he did not
know where he was going, and, he said, uu-
til he ascertained his destination from
"the Father he desired to have boy ac-
company him. He took the upper road
leading to Cochiti, which also goes to
Pena Blanca. Simon Hernandez accom-
panied him.
