AFTER the Tax Dodgers.

The district attorney has called my at
tention to an inquiry, that it Is we'll for
you all to consider. 1t is very certain
that there is great neglect, on the part OF
citizens, to perform the obligation to help
support their county and territory, by the
payment of the Legitimate assessment
upon their property, called taxes; and
there il every reason to believe that cltl-
zens, in their desire to escape this liablll-
tv, suppress the possession of property,
of pereonal character. 1t is not prac-
ticabIe, of course, as yon know for the as
SCISSOR to ascertain the extent Of the pos
sessions, of personal character, of any
citizen; and yet, that citizen frequently
does not hesitate to make false report
of his ownership, and desire you to IN
ouire into this condition, and ascertain,
if possible, whether false returns have
been made, by Taxpayers, and If they
have, confer with your district attorney,
who will refer you to the statute covering
such cases.
You are here, now, under the vigilant
REQ uirement of the law, and its careful
enforcement by the court, as taxpayers.
You would not, iu the opinion of the
court, be eligible to your present capacity,
if you had ignored your obligations to
the territory in the payment of your dues
for the support Of the government OF
your county and the government of your
territory, and therefore you can readily
understand that it must be incumbent
upon you to hold all citizens up to their
obligation Of this character, and hope
you will take great pleasure in ascertain
ing if other people Of the county have
been less worthy than you and less honor
able in returning their property for as
sessment and paying their dues upon it,
Chief Justice Smiths instructions to the
grand jury.

PRESS COMMENT.
A Republican Revolt.

"The Republicans of New Mexico have
promised to define their position on the
silver question at the coming Republican
to nominate candidate to
congress. The action of the Republican
friends of silver in New Mexico will be
watched with great deal of INTEREST,"
Silver City Eagle.
Correct you are, they will be watched.
The next policy move to be made by the
Republican golden calf worshipers OF
New Mexico will be "to define their posi-
ton on the silver question" and while
they are performing this piece of Jug
glery they will proceed to pack the terri
torial convention in favor of Goidbug
Catron, twin political brother of Godbug
Elkins, first political cousin of Goldbug
Mckinley, sired by Goldbng John sher-
man.--Chloride Black Range, Republi-

The bicyclists of this country have be-
come numerically strong enough to Sc
oure almost any kind of legislation they
may want. This being the case, there is
likely to be some bicycle legislation OF
the formation of new party composed
of people who are devotees of the wheel
Such party would be formidable party
even now, and its strength would rapidly
increase from year to year. 1t looks very
much as If the bicyclsts were destined
hereafter to cut considerable figure
elsewhere than upon the road.

SINCE the time of his arrest Holmes,
the Philadelphia murderer, has made some
fifty confessions, each of which contra
dicted every former one, and each OF
which was pronounced by the murderer
to be the only true one. Holmes is sem
fenced to be executed on May 7. He has
still almost a month left, which gives
every enterprising paper in the country
ample time to secure from him confess
sion as exclusive as it is high-priced.
Holmes, besides being the most fiendish
murderer, is also the most circumstantial
liar of the century.

Amendment of CatrOn's sons.

Mr.. Catron evidently intends to make
a family matter of the crumbs OF patron
age that fall to him from governmental
tables.
A grosser or more desplcable exhibit
ton of nepotism has seldom been seen In
this country, and it deserves the repro
baton and contempt of the people every
where. 1t far surpasses everything that
has heretofore been done in this way at
Washington, notorious as are the cases
where senators have appointed relatives
to clerkships and other positions in CON-
gress. Those appointments are repre-
hensible enough, but they are at the best
tenn porary and expire with the term OF
the donor. But here are appointments
for life, where the government is saddled
with the education of these boys and
with ali their future maintenance.
The people of New Mexico should pay
some little attention to Mr.. Catron and
see to it that he has no other chance to
make the public patronage family af-
fair. 1t was not for that they sent him
to Washington.--Ch Times-Herald,
Republican.

AN Omaha district judge has ruled that
it is unlawful to insert in any note or
contract the words "payablein gold com"
or the words ''to pay in gold coin or its
equivalent" holding that in either form
the rote would be illegal, being in viola
tion of the legal tender law and contrary
to public policy. That's both good sense
and good law.

which was largely attended. At it's con-
clusion they marched, singing, TO the
church.
In the evening the conference Epworth
League held a successful meeting. Toward
the close fully sixty persons knelt, weep
ing, at the mourners' bench, and there
were about thirty conversions. As one
said:
The spirit of the Lord seemed to de-
scend on the unconverted in the audience
and drive them TO the mercy seat"
Afterward there was feast of rejoicing
and xperience-telling. At IL o clock to-
night lights in church windows told that
it was still going on. Evangelists a. c..
Bane and ID. Osborne, who are attending
the conference, said this evening that this
is the most spiritual conference they have
attended in years.

is also a large and beautiful opera-house,
complete in all of its appointments.
The proximity of Pasadena to Los An

in that city to make their homes in
Pasadena OH account OF its climate,
schools, social advantages and freedom
from the usual drawbacks of life in city.
In fact, Pasadena com Dines all the ad-
vantages of an ideal home, having all the
conveniences of city and the quiet and
restful character of life in the country,
combined with ample opportunity for
social enjoyment of high order.
These advantages have attracted TO Pas

The expansion of business during the

an increasing demand by the people who
buy homes.
The high class of houses, both in point
OF cost and artistic effect and beautiful
grounds, compare favorablv with the best
suburbs of Boston or New York.
The city has two residence sections, the
east and west side. So close are the
competing advantages that property of
the same grade is very nearly the same in
price, while North Pasadena is improv-

which is largely due to the building of the
electric road through that section up to
Altadera. a suburb at the foot of the
mountains, where many luxurious homes
have been erected in very extensive
grounds.
From here the Mount Low Railroad ex.
tends as far as Alpine Tavern. This road
is one of the most celebrated mountain
railroads in the world. 1t runs from Alta
