OF the notable events last week in

Die Territorial auditoT:

In THE house a bill has been
passed approving the acts of our
Territorial Legislature in authoriz-
ing several issues Of bonds sggre-
eating $4,000. This includes,
among other items, the appropriA-
ton Of $4,000 of bonds for the
Normal School here, $4,000 for
the secondary Normal School at
Las Vegas, and$ SIC, 900 for the Ag-
ricultural College at Las Cruces.
BY the terms of the Harrison act
the Territory cannot create an
Indebtedness exceeding l per
cent Of its taxable value without
the sanction Of congress. The
Normal School in Silver City is
now a strictly professional one.
The standard of the grades has
been raised and the preparatory
class has been dropped. Pupils
entering the school are required to
give a pledge that their intention
is TO qualify as teachers. Some
splendid work has been done SC
far this year and the pupils in che
graduating class will be carried
SO far that they will be prepared
to enter any college. The college
preparatory class commenced Ci.
cero's Orations, practical physics
and chemistry yesterday. Their,
are six pupils in the graduating
class, and they viii all, in all prob
ability, HGisA their work at The
school thfs year. The discipline
in the school is excellent. A nom
inal fee Of $40 a year is nov
charged for tuition.

UTAH ADMITTED TO STATEHOOD.
The constitution Of the State Of
Utah having been approved by
the encouragement of the United
States, the President by his proc
lamation declares the admission Of
the territory Of Utah as a state Of
the Union. It will be the 45th
star in our National galaxy. It
will now depend upon the people
of the new state to make good it's
guarantees, and carry out the
spirit of its new constitution while
observing its letter. The declar-
alton of rights in the Utah con-
stitution is especially emphatic on
the subject of religious liberty
and the rights of conscience. It
says that these rights 'shaIl never
be infringed"; that no law shall
be made respecting an establish
ment Of religion or prohibiting
the free exercise thereof; that
there shall be no religious test as
q qualification for voting or hold
ing Office; that no person shall be
incompetent as a witness or juror
ION account of religious belief or
the absence thereof; that there
shall be no union Of church and
state, 'nor shall any church domi-
nate the state or interfere with
the functions thereof" and that
no public money or property shall
be appropriated for or applied to
any religious worship, exercise
or instruction, or for the support
of any ecclesiastical establish
ment." The constitution of
the new state also contains
what is called an "ordi-
nance which is declared to be "ir-
revocable without the consent of
, the United States and the people
. Of this state" This ordinance de-
: clares that perfect federation Of

believe that no party can hope for en-

long as il advocates a single gold stand

financial policy would be especially dan
gerous to a party which, like the demo

from those who may without reproach
be called the Common people; and we
point TO the overwhelming defeat OF the
party IN 1894, To the opposition aroused
