$4,000 per annum. How $4,000
is to be paid out Of 5000 Is a
problem that would overtax the
ability Of the shrewdest 6nancier
that ever lived. The only way
that the County's current Expense
income can be increased is by leg
Islative enactment and the legis-
lature does not meet till next year.
During 1895 the fund received
some 5000 from the Berg bonds
men, so that Grant County only
owes about three months bills for
last year; but how is she going to
carry on her ordinary business this
year when no such extra help can
be expected?

Richard Hudson. Silver City. N. NJ.
Dear Sir:-I have to inform
you that 1 have this day, in pur-
suance Of the authority in me
vested, removed you from the po-
sitiOn of commissioner on the
board of penitentiRry commission
ers for this Territory. / am con-
strained to do this by reason Of
the following facts: The law cre-
ating the board, provides that the
members shall receive a salary of
$500 per year and their actual and
necessary travelling expenses in
CURED in attending the meetings
Of the board.
+ / find, upon examination at the
auditors Office, that you have pre-
sented vouchers, eight in number,
for transportation, each in the
sum of $29.10, dated respectively,
March 5, April l, May q, July 8,
September 8, October /, Novem-
Der 6, 1896, and January 3, 1896,
no portion Of which, except your
return tip in 1896, has been
paid.
1t has been stated to me, and
also to others. among Thorn Messrs.
LOOMS and Moore, that you have
been travelling upon a pass; by the
presentation Of these false vouch-
ers you have obtained money
from the Territory-money which
not owe you, and you are
therefore indebted to the Terrific
ry, in the>sum you have received.
Another and further reason that
leads me to act at this time is the
effort which you, in connection
with others, have made to remove
the superintendent of the Terrific
rial penitentiary, it having come
to me that you have visited that
institution and talked with the
convicts confined there, asking
them if they knew anything det-
rimental to the character Of the
said superintendent, and in one
instance, offering 10 recommend a
man Tor pardon, and to procure a
petition for his pardon from Silver
City, il he would watch out and
get information against Supt
Bergmann, and 60 before Che
board of penitentisry commission
ers at their next meeting and pre-.
sent such information, as will
more fully appear by the attached
copy of affidavit of j. M. Rey.
nolds, who has served his full
term.
1 do not believe it possible tC
maintain order aud discipline, and
keep the territorial penitentiaTy in
its present excellent condition, il
the commissioners create the ides
among the prisoners that they
want information injurious TO che
reputation of the superintendent
ia charge. Such conduct can only
result in destroying all discipline
and tend TO make discord in ths
prison management

cessity which causes me to TAXI

To the democrats Of the United States:
WASHINGTON, Mar. Ave the under
signed democrats, present for your con-
sideration the following statement; We
believe that the establishment OF gold
ne The only monetary standard and the
elimination Of silver ne a full legal tend.
or money will increase the purchasing
power OF each dollar, and 80 the burden
Of all debts, decrease The market value
OF ali other forms Of property and con.
tinue and increase She business depres-
sion and finally reduce the majority Of
the people TO financial bondage. We
believe that no party can hope for en-
during success in the United States 80
long rs Il advocates a single gold stand
ard, and that the advocacy Of such a
financial policy would be especially dan
gerous to a party which, like the demo
cratic party, derives its voting strength
from those who may without reproach
be called the commbn people; and we
point to the overwhelming defoat OF the
party IN 1894, 70 the opposition aroused
by the veto Of the seigniorage bill and TO
the still more unanimous protest against
The issue OF gold bonds as proof that the
democratic party q not be brought TO
the support Of the gold standard pol
ICY.
We believe that the money question
will be the paramount issue in 1896, and
will 80 remain until it is settled by the
intelligence and patriotism Of the Amer
ican voters.
We believe that a majority Of the
democrats OF the United States favor
bimetallism and realize that it a be
secured only by the restoration Of the
free and unlimited coinage Of gold and
silver at the present ratio, and we assert
that the majority has and should ex-
ercise the right 70 control the policy of
the party and retain the party name.
We believe Il is the duty Of the ma
joTity and within their power TO take
charge Of the party organization and
make the democratic party an effective
instrument in the Accomplishment Of
edsdFSforms.
IL not necessary that democrats
eurrender their convictions on

in the settlAment Of the ques-

SOME people are blind because
they will not zee. Among this
class must DO placed the gold
standard men. When they wish
ed TO demonetize silver they pre-
dicted that if the double standard
were maintained silver would be
the only metal left in the country
because gold would flow Outi and
that if gold were the only coin
metal and standard Of value it
would remain here. Welt we
are practically on a gold basis to-
day, but instead of the gold re-
naming in the country it is going
out so fast that extraordinary eff
forts have to be made to get
enough back to keep the country
from financial ruin. The evil
predicted has come about after
the country has practically adopt
cd what they demanded as a pre-
ventive measure. It has come
largely because OF this measure,
but if you show them this they
shut their eyes and say they do
not see tit is not so. There
are none so blind as those who
