SANTA COUNTY DEMOCRATS.

We commend to the serious considera-
tion of Santa Fe county Democrats the
following editorial utterance from the AL
buquerque Democrat
az We shall say, however, that
the rank and file of the Santa Fe Democ-
racy is making itself ridiculous in lend
ing itself to the purposes of the leaders
of either faction. 1t might be safe plan
to abandon for time all these self
seekers who are forever after personal
vindication at the hands of their party
and to leave them on the present occa
sion undisturbed and unmolested in the
discharge Of their official and domestic
duties, and to elect as delegates to Las
Vegas men of sterling Democracy who
value their party's principles above their
personal prejudices and animosities.
"As the head and front of the party, at
least in official sense, the Democrats of
the territory are inclined to respect the
Santa Fe contingent. but it Is growing
weary of the unaccountable antics that it
sees performed in that city and for which
the party atlarge has to bear the expense,
and the cost is fast becoming unbearable.
If they propose to continue their wrang-
ling in the hope of dragging the Las We
gas convention into taking part in their
petty affairs, they may meet with the ex-
perience of the two small boys in like
predicament, whose parents agreed on
each hand to administer the slipper to
their turbulent offspring and to put them
to bed, on the sound moral theory Of gem
eral principles"

Total delegates. .

The county central committees of the
respective counties are hereby req uested
to call county conventions to be held in
due time for the selection of the author
lied number of delegates to said terri
torial convention in accordance with the
rules and regulations, or the usages and
practices of the party in each county. 1t
is suggested that primaries be held in the
various counties not later than May 30,
and that the county conventions be held
not later than June 6, 1896.
In carrying out the orders of this COM
mittee at its said meeting, all Democrats
and all those who intend to act with tho
Democratic party are hereby invited to
participate in the primaries in the re-
spective counties.
In view of the great weight which the
Democratic delegation from this territory
had in the last national convention in the
selection of candidates for president and
vice president, and in view of the magni-
tude of the interests involved in the COM
ing national convention and of the re-
curing possibility for the exercise of po-
tent influence by New Mexico's delega-
tion, particularly in silver's cause, the
Democrats in all counties are urged to
make their voice heard in the primaries
and in the county conventions to the end
that our territorial convention may be
largely attended and representative
one, thus assuring the election of dele
tion to the national convention composed
of Dem ocracy's strongest and truest sons.
This is vital year for silver's cause and
it is the hope of this committee that New
Mexico Democrats will take vital part,
beginning down at the primaries.

CATRON'S SCHEME FAILS,

Utter and ignominous defeat came to
Delegate Catron in his we'll laid plans to
change the date of the meeting of the leg
islative assembly, the method of organi-
cation, and doing away with the use Of
Interpreters and translators. As has
heretofore been pointed out in these col
umns, the rankest sort of political DEM
agogism was the main inspiration of this
movement. 1t was of this amendment
that Senator Hill, of New York, said on
the floor of the senate:
"This is small, mean, contemplate
trick. 1t is provision sneaked into this
appropriation bill to force the approval
of the president"
But thanks to the vigilance of the Dem
o'rats Of New Mexico and the prompt &C.
tion of their friends in congress short
work of every political feature of the
scheme was cut out and out of it has
come good. The legislature will meet
January IS for sixty days session. 1t
will be organized as heretofore by the
territorial secretary swearing in those
legally qualified to serve, and it will have
among its subordinate officers an inter
prefer and translator. These latter Of
ficials Mr.. Catron tried to dispense with,
but the NEW MEXICAN came to the rescue
of the native people and insisted that
provision be made for such employees.
Gov. Thornton also telegraphed his
friends in congress calling their atten-
tion to the injustice that would be done
if interpreters and translators were not
provided for, and Delegate Catron's
plans were again upset. However Dele.
gate Catron and his organs and his par
tsan supporters may feel about it the
New MEXICAN feels that the majority of
the citizens of the territory will have
cause for earnest self-congratulatio
over the outcome of this affair.

the ST. LOUIS CALAMITY.

The words at the command of the peer
less poet, who beggared the English Ian
guage and the world of ideas, would be
wholly inadequate to the heartrending
task of describing the awful calamity that
befell st. Louis on night before last and
giving expression to the profound sym
pathy the people of the United States feel
for the sorely smitten and unspeakably
afflicted metropolis of the southwest.
Such dreadful disasters, involving such
immense sacrifices of human life and the
fruits of human toll and such walls of
anguish and tears of agony, avoidable by
no precaution or power at the command
of man, awaken strange and conflicting
emotions in the human breast. The ap.
palling Johnstown flood disaster, the
seventh anniversary of which will be
solemly observed at its scene on the COM
ing Sabbath, parallels the recent st. Louis
horror in some of its worst features. But
the Johnstown affair was clearly attri-
butable to the criminal negligence of
man, while st. Louis was the helpless
plaything of destructive and irresistible
forces set in motion by an unseen hand
and controllable only by that hand.
Doubtless the orthodox church people
can explain this and kindred visitations
from above on some theory satisfactory
to themselves; but, 80 far as we are con-
cerned, we are forced to the conclusion
that it is impertinent folly for finite
minds to undertake the solution of such
mysteries. Doubtless the cyclone and
the tornado are wise dispensations, doubt
less they answer some useful purpose in
the economy of the universe, doubtless
we are merely looking at the ugly aspects
of the pictures reverse side and have no
conception of the radiant beauties of the
other side, but in order to cling to such a
faith as this it is necessary for us to
avoid all theologians and theological
explanations.

THE YELLOWSTONE PARK.
Report Of Government Agent Upon Its
Condition.


In his report, recently received at the in
terror department, Captain Anderson says
that, although the season in the Yellow
stone park opened with promise of heavy
travel that promise has not been realized,
and this year there have been fewer visit
ors in the park than last season. This he
attributes partly to financial depression
and partly to the disturbances of polit-
teal campaign. He believes, however, that
the falling off In travel cannot be traced
solely to the above reasons for the Euro
pean steamers are crowded with Ameri-
cans, who go to spend their summers
abroad, and explains by assuming that the
travelling public Is not aware of what can
be seen at the park and with what ease
and comfort the trip can be made.
Captain Anderson calls attention to the
fact that Notwithstanding his urgent re-
quest, no improvement has been made in
the military post and asks for an appro-
priation for one set of new barracks and
one stable at the new post, because the
troops are so constantly in the field during
the summer that they need comfortable
quarters during the winter
He commends the management OF the
hotel, transportation company and the
Yellowstone Lake Boat company unquali-
fieClly and says that, with the exception of
the bison, game continues to increase. OF
bison he thinks there arc from % TO 90
head, but whether ho will be able to save
these remains problem, as he says, "the
forces of nature and the hands of man are
alike against them, and they seem to be
struggling against an almost certain fate. T"

There was sound of fdoors windows
