ing the same name, is far from be-
ing one and the same thing. And
the people in all these countries
are far from having the same as
pirations and views. In this re-
spect the people Of the United
States and Latin America r as
widely separated as are the peo-
pie of the United States and Rus
sia. There is no similarity what
ever in their institutions OF their
methods, or their aspirations.
And, IL the truth must be told,
there is practically very little SYM
pathy. The Americans are not
liked in Latin America; they are
considered to be arrogant and
overreaching, always claiming IA
vors and immunities, and quick to
take an unfair advantage. This is
the general feeling, and how far
IT is due 70 their peculiar methods
of pushing trade, and how far to
the circumstance that they have
been represented by Adventures
rather than by trained commercial
men, we leave our readers to con-
clude for themselves.
There is no similarity whatever
between these countries and the
United States They are not our
natural allies in trade" Their
language, laws, customs, needs,
aspirations, and social institutions
are widely different. They (the
Latin Americans) look to Europe
for everything they require, and
when they go abroad it is toward
Europe that their faces are turn
ed. The foreign merchants in
their cities are chiefly Euro.
peans; their mines and rail-
ways, and public companies
are operated chiefly by Europeans
and with European capital; their
loans are taken in Europe, their
fashions come from Paris, their
money from London, and their
military stores and ships from
Germany, England and France.
Their independence was won with
the assistance of English officers,
and thus far they have received
more help and encouragement
from Europe in their political de-
velopment than from the United
States. It is only natural, then,
that their sympathies should really
go to Europe, and all the more SO
in view Of the steady flow of i'm
migration to these countries from
Italy, Spain, Portugal, Germany
France, and Austria. In 1885,
the feeling here was so bitter
against the United States, because
of the CHILEAN quarrel, that q
Latin American union against the
arrogant Saxon republic" was
widely discussed, and was even ia.

BULL

In the neighborhood of 5000
Americans attended the bull fights
in Juarez on Sunday afternoon
and fully that number of people
were Disguised with the sport.
Not because the bulls or fighters
were bad, but because four inno-
cent and helpless horses were
butchered. And it would be a
good thing if the Americans would
positively refuse to patronize a
bull fight where horses were al
lowed in the arena. The horses
could be eliminated without de-
tracing from the sport and if the
Americans will refuse to attend
where horses are butchered horses
will at once disappear from the
bull ring in Juarez.
There is no sport in seeing q
helpless horse gored to death; anC
the horse feature was what the
American spectators objected Il

Governor done this his railroad
fare account alone would have
been S79-six trips at $40 each.
The fact that the six trips were
made at an average cost Of S11.668
per trip clearly shows how the
Chieftain when sent in search Of
facts Of official record is capable
of resorting to wilful falsehood in
its desperation to make out its
case.
Now the fact is that the several
meetings Of the School Of Mines
board we're held on August IA,
1891; January IL, 1892; January
26. 1892; April 10, 1892, and April
%, 1892.
The items Of expense for each
of the four trips from Santa Fe to
Socorro were: sleeping car fare,
"a; two days hotel bill, Sc; hack
fare at Santa Fe and Socorro,
S1.50; total for the four trips, $40
The expense of the two trips made
from Las Cruces to Socorro on
School of Mines duties was: sleep
er, 81; two days hotel bill, S.;
hack hire in Las Cruces and So
coro, 81; total for the two trips,
S1S.
AT the time these two last men,
toned trips we're made Governor
Thornton was personally engaged
in operating his mines at Organ,
twenty miles east of Las Cruces,
and he was legally entitled to col
lect from the School Of Mines the
cost of his buggy hire to and from
Organ and Las Cruces on these
two trips, but he paid that out of
his own pocket and made no charge
Of it against the Territory.
Here we have a charge against
the School of Mines of $64 for the
six trips. Now we come to Windy
Williams mares nest--the item
Of railroad fare.
On Jan. II, Governor Thornton,
being also a member of the Terri
torial board engaged in gathering
an exhibit for the Worlds fair,
had not yet received the pass
which the Atchison, Topeka &
Santa Fe had volunteered to give
the members of that board in or
der to aid them in making a cred
table display for New Mexico at
the great exposition, and hPving
no pass and going also to extend
his trip to Las Cruces on Worlds
fair duty, Governor Thornton
purchased a railroad ticket through
to the latter point, stopping off al
Socorro on School of Mines bust
ness. The cost of the ticket was
Sl1.85. OF this amount Sc was
charged 10 the School of Mines
and the remainder, $685., was
charged to the Worlds fair board
Hence we have the items in the
above referred to bill--four trips
fcom Santa Fe to Socorro, SAG
two trips from Las Cruces to So.
