fro among the members from the
southwest, and it was evident that
there was something in the wind. 1t
developed in short time Chat the
representatives from that part of the
world had received memorials from
citizens asking that a law be passed
to prevent prize fighting in the ter
ritories and the district of Columbia.
Congressman Cockrell of Texas had
received such memorial from the
preachers and othere in FL Paso stat
ing that the fl int between Maher and
Fitzsimmons aud others would per-
haps take place i'll the near future in
New Mexico and asking that law be
passed to prevent it, Mr.. Cockrell at
work and took for It's form the recent
statue enacted by the legislature for
the prevention OF prize fighting. But
by the time the house met delegate
from the territory mentioned was on
hand with bill of his own concep-
ton. He said us delegate from that
section he had the right to introduce
the bill, and the right was accorded
him. The bill provides for the pun
ishment OF prize fighting or aiding or
aOetting III pilze fighting, at from five
to ten years in the penitentiary. The
committee on Judiciary hai been seen
to see what it would do ii there was
any objection to the consideration OF
the bill at once aud it was found that
said committee would in that event
present the bill and action could he
had upon it. Mr.. Catron, the delegate
from the territory OF New Mexico, in
troduced the bill just as soon ss the
house met. 1t did not receive unan-
imous consent so it was necessary to
send it to the Judiciary committee
and this was done. Mr.. Henderson,
the chairman, went around among
the members aud got an agreement
from them Tor an immediate report,
But some of the members objected to
the high penalty so this was changed
from five years TO one year in the pen
itcntiary. The bin was also amended
so rs to interdict bull fighting aud
other fights between men and animals.
Amos Cummings wanted to know if
this bill prevented cock fighting and
Henderson turned him to one side
without much satisfaction. The bill
was then passed, there being only a
lew negative votes.

WEDNESDAY EVENING. NOV. 4, 1896
THE OUT LOOK.

At this writing, it seems absolutely
assured hat FL. b. FERGUSON has been
elected delegate to congress, that the
entire union ticket for this county has
been eiecte d, and that Major Mckinley
will be the next president of the United
States. As 10 the political complexion
of congress, it is too early to form any
estimate.
One thing, however, is certain. The
silver sentiment of the country has
been so pronounced in its utterance,
that the incoming administration, and
the incoming congress, dare not ignore
it. If ignored, four years hence there
will be no doubt of the result. 1t
seems to THE OPTIC that the result Of
the preseni national campaign will be
favorable to silver and protection, the
combining of which cannot fail to
bring good times to New Mexico.
There can no longer be any doubt
that the silver sentiment, in the United
States, has shown an enormous growth
in the last four months, aud that it will
continue to grow in the next four
years. Utter disgust with democratic
iocompetency and rascality alone pre-
vented its triumph at the present time.
The majority OF the American people
are in favor of the free coinage of sill
yer and the protection of American in
dustries. These they could not have
under democratic rule. They had to
make choice between silver and free
trade, on the n hand, and protection,
with the demand for free silver, or the
other: and haliavino Tho iatte- -a-h;
nation to be preferable to the former,
the nation has SO decided.
Had there been only the question of
free silver, of the result, yesterday, no
doubt could be entertained. But of
free silver without protection, and of
protection, with the prospect of free
silver, the latter carried the day. The
result of the election, however, must
not be misread. 1t is by no means a
popular decision against silver, as the
victorious republicans will find, four
years hence, if they shall ignore or
neglect the popular sentiment in favor
