LABOR MAKES RESPONSE.

The 5O-cent dollar theory which the
McHannas and their goldbug Democratic
helpers HAYS pratsd so much about OF
late, received severe blow in New York
the other day. President Monash, of the
Denver board of public works, relates the
incident. The Denver man was on a
New York street car, and, as with most
western men, had both his eyes and his
ears open. In walked pompous Brook
lyn manufactures and offered the con-
ductor a Mexican dollar in payment of
his fare. He was told that 1t could only
BIZ accepted for so cents. AS he paid a
nickel, the manufacturer said: my man,
you will be paid 10 50-csnt dollars when
Bryan 10 elected and will receive just
half what you do now"
"How do you knowi" was the inquiry
"Why, employ 500 men," exclaimed
the passenger, "and know it will be So
"Well," replied the conductor, "if you
could pay wages in 50.oent dollars, I be.
lisve you would be in for that kind Of
money yourself"
This sally was regarded - a "olinoher'
by the people in the car and the manu-
factursr was given the laugh.

The people of Colfax, Union and Mora
will joir in holding district fair at
Springer, commencing on Wednesday
next. In view of all that has been said
throughout New England and under the
golden shadows of Wall street, with ref
erence to "those undesirable western
states" we call attention to the fact that
one of the rules of this fair association
provides that no into1icants Of any ma
ture can be sold on the premises. Pretty
good, we think, for wild and woolly
western community!

and
Whereas, The date of the holding of

each 100 votes cast for Antonio Joseph in
each of said counties at the last general
election and one additional delegate for
each fraction of 100 votes 80 cast amount
ing to fifty or more,
Now, therefore, by virtue of the author
ity in us so vested, a convention of the
Democratic party of New Mexico is here
by proclaimed to be held in the city of

on the Goth day of September, A. d. 1896,

The county central committees of the
various counties are requested to call
county conventions for the election Of the
designated number of delegates, accord
ing to the rules and regulations govern
ing party practice, in the respective coun-
ties, and it is suggested that such conven-
tons and preliminary primaries be held
at such times as are convenient to the
party in the respective counties.
In those counties in which party inter-
ests have advised the holding Of county
conventions prior to this call the dele
gates there selected to represent such
county in the proclaimed convention will
undoubtedly be held to have been duly
elected, according to the purpose of this
call.
In carrying ont the instructions OF the
committee, at its said meeting, all Dem.
ocrats, and all those who intend to act with
the Democratic party on the leading
principles enunciated in its Chicago
platform, and especially on the great
declaration in favor of the free and un-
limited coinage of silver, are hereby in
vited to participate in the primaries, in
the respective counties, and In the pro.
ppsou UoTEibOTlhl COuVoutiOuS u bO ~ Uc
that they are chosen as representatives
at county conventions.
In view of the great issues involved in
the national campaign, now on, and Of
the high and advanced ground taken by
the Democratic party In favor of the
restoration Of the money of the common
people to its constitutional place in the
financial policy of the nation; and, in
view, further, of the utter failure of the
Republican party to give the terri
tory an influential and useful delegate
in congress from New Mexico, it is
the hope of this committee that the
convention hereby called may be fully
attended and memorable gathering OF
representative Democrats from every
county in the territory. To this end all
citizens of this territory, within the pur.
view of this call, are urged to take an
active interest in the preliminary steps
TO constitute said convention and In the
important work of the same.

Could, Not Make Tibet.

Mr.. WI lson relates an amusing story
OF an officer who determined to enter
Chinese Tibet by stratagem. This Off :
Ger managed to cross the frontier at
night, and SO escaped the frontier guard.
Next day, however, while he was jour
neying deeper into Tibet the Tibetan
soldiers overlook him and informed him
that as the country was unsafe, because
Of robbers, they would go with him in
order to protect him, to which arrange
ment the traveller was. compelled to
agree. In a few hours they came to a
river, which was crossed by rope
bridge. The Tibetans passed over first,
in order to show that the bridge was
safe, and then the officer got into the
basket and was pulled along by the lib
etans Suddenly, however, they ceased
pulling and left the Englishman hang
Ing IN midair above the rushing torrent.
In vain the traveller shouted to the
Tibetans to pull. They merely smoked
and nodded their heads The hours pass
cd, and still the officer hung above the
torrent. At last the Tibetans agreed to
pull him back if he would promise to
leave Tibet Immediately. j; This Of
course he was compelled to do and took
his departure from the forbidden land.

WILD FLOWERS.

Oh, beautiful blossoms, pure and sweet,
--Agleam with dew from the country ways
To me, at work in city street,
You bring fair visions of by gone days
Glad days. when hid in a mist Of green
To watch spring s delicate buds unfold,
And all the riches cared to CLEAN
We're daisy silver and buttercup gold.
Ills true You come Of a lowly race,
Nursud by the sunshine, fed by the showers
And yet you are heirs to q nameless grace
Which I fail to find in my dollhouse flowers,
And you breathe on me with your honeyed
lips, PSI $- KS
Till in thought stand on the wind swept
fells. aSs@ sS$
Where the brown bees hum o 'er the ferny dips
Or ring faint peals on the heather bells.
1close my eyes on the crowded street,
! shut my ears to the city's roar,
And am out in the open with flying feet
OFF, off to your emerald haunts once morel
But the harsh wheels CRATE on the stones be-
low,
And sparrow chirps at the murky pane,
And my bright dreams fade in an overflow
OF passionate longing and tender pain.

be that this disposition on his part was
in the spirit Of the stoics and in def.
