city Council and board of Trade.


The new City Council with Mayor
Aver at its head assumed the reins Of
municipal power Wednesday night.
The bond OF the City Treasurer,
f. G. Blake, was approved. 1t was
signed by C. J. Lord, N. II. Gwings,
J. F. Convey, 7. NJ. Reed, F. r. Brown
and A. A. Phillips.
The committees for the ensuing
year are as followa:
Ways and Means-Byrne, Lane and
Meays.
Accounts and Current Expenses

Fire, Light and Water-Scofield,
Byrne and Van Epps.

The application of Delano Myers
for position as policeman also those
of f. l.. Northup and Frank Taylor
for the position of City Marshal, were
referred.
After some discussion on the ques.
ton of meeting night it was decided
to continue the same as last year for
a time at least.
Upon motion of Lane, the City At
torney was requested to report at the
next meeting when the collection Of
the delinquent personal property tax
of 1894 should be enforced.
Lane stated that he had reasons to
believe that parties had received pay
ment on city warrants who owed the
city for delinquent taxes. He believes
that when a person presents a war
rant for payment the Treasurer should
be certain that his account is square
before paying it. He moved that the
City Treasurer be instructed to in no
case to pay a warrant to parties having
delinquent tax due the city.
The motion carried and the Council
then adjourned.
After adjournment of the Council
the Board of Trade met, to recon-
mend the names of three delegates
to the immigration Convention,
which meets in Seattle next Monday.
The choice fell on Geo. b. Lane, M.
Harris and j. OBJ. Scobey.

Col. Owings thought our people

conceded with this belief.
Messrs. Chambers and Lane be-
lieved that there was no improperly
in asking for anything and every
thing that anybody else was asking
! for.
Col. Owings then said he was ready
to rustic for it, if that was the desire
and he moved that the President anC
Secretary be instructed to correspond
with the proper authorities with re
gard to that matter.
On motion, the Board endorsed Col
Owing's article on the "Fruit Re

view of securing its publication in thu

Pacific land department.
The Board then endorsed tn,

THE FRUIT CROP.

As previously observed in these col
umns, New Mexico, taking one year with
another, is the safest fruit growing Sec
ton in the west. From Texas the report
came two weeks ago that the fruit crop
was ruined by frosts, and now comes a
similar report from central and southern
California. Even the fruit in the famous
Santa Clara and San joaquin valleys is
lost. Halls forms have also done much
damage, and in many parts of the state
potatoes, tomatoes and other vegetables
have been badly damaged and "the grape
crop has been reduced fully one third"
This means that "fruit will be fruit" in
the Rocky mountain country this year.
Northern New Mexico in particular lie
promised an abundant crop, and it strikes
Us that this would be specially goo
season for the holding of territorial
horticultural fair at Santa Fe.

LOOK TO THIS, DEMOCRATS.

Somehow the impression has gone
abroad that somebody or other is actively
and quietly at work On project having
for it's object the framing of vague and
misleading resolutions with reference to
the free coinage proposition at the terri
torial Democratic convention in June.
The NEw MEXICAN iAnot aware that there
is any actual foundation for such report;
nevertheless 1t deems it wise to call atten.
tion to the rumor at this time in order to
admonish the true friends of straight
Democracy to be on the alert. Here is
principle that New Mexico Democrats
must 60 squarely on record for. No
equivocation; no beating around the
bush; no jogglery with words will answer.
We have only recently observed the dis
grace, the humiliation which came upon
New Mexico Republicans because of their
cowardice 10 dealing with this the chief
issue of the day throughout the country

WILL PRINCIPLE GOVERN.

Should principles govern, the Republi-
can Catronist ticket will not get one
fifth of the votes of New Mexico at the
election next November. The cowardice
of the Catronist crowd in studiously
syading a stand on the currency question
ia enough to condemn it in the eyes OF all
sincere citizens, and added to this Catron
will come forward this fall and ask for a
''vindicetion" of his course in congress.
Well, bell hardly get 1t at the hands OF
New Mexicans this year. They are not in
the "yindicatiug business" to that extent

more brazen trickery than any other

people of New Mexico. Thank heaven,
