JIM ia MS.

Some weeks ago the Las Vegas Optic
published an article on the apportion
ment Of delegates to the convention
provided for in Mr.. Catron's bill now
before congress, for the admission of
New Mexico to st ,tehood In that
article the optic conceded the manifest
unfarn-ss and inequality of the appor.
tionment and suggested another to which
no one could object, but all fair men
would acknowledge its justness.
Since the publication of the article,
howovor, the Optic seems to have heard
from Catron and the result has been
that several issues of the paper have
been devoted to attempted explanations
as to why it could not defend the sug-
gestions it then made.
1t looks, to the EAGLE, like clear
case OF political jim jams and in the
melee the Optics legs have become
fearfully tangled, and If the so-calIed
explanations continue much longer the
friends of our contemporary will prob.
ably find it IN some other county.

BoLTING DEMOCRATS.

The nine Democrats. so-called, in the
Kentucky legislature who refuse to vote
for their party nominee, Blackburn, for
senator, are bolting this nominee solely
on the ground that he is a true Dem
ocrat and not in accord with Republican
views on the question of National finan-
ces. II these pretended Democrats who
are really Republicans, cared to be con
sistent they would go to the other side
OF the chamber and vote with the Re.
publicans for DR.. Hunter, who repre-
sents their sentiments on the leading
political issue 0f the day.

THE SILVER EORCES.

The advocates of the free coinage OF

parties, each working on its own hook
and in its own way pretending to pro

the promotion of the cause OF silver.
The Populsts are still i'll the field and
the Bimetallic League has complete
organization. These parties are all,
doubtless, honestly working to secure
the coinage of silver on equal terms with
gold, while large portion of the Dem
ocratic party as we'll as a considerable
number Of Republicans are favorable to
the same policy Of finance. Nothing can
be done towards the accomplishment of
this Object by such a division Of the
friends of silver. These forces must bo

SOUND AND TRUE.

Mr., Henry Lockhart, now Of Bland,
n. NJ, writes an excellent article for
the Southwest Illustrated Magazine,
which shows in detail the resources OF
the camp known as Cochiti. The oon.
cluding paragraph Of Mr. Lockharts'
article might bo read with profit by a
great many people in New Mexico who
appear to have nothing else to amuse
themselves with except TO wear out
their pocket knives in the destruction Of
dry goods boxes and complain that more
capital cannot be induced to come in o
the territory with which to develop her
resources. The paragraph alluded to
reads as follows:
New Mexico is always waiting for "outsids q
capital If it would put little of its own
cpaital into the means of turning its already
developed resources into nouey, wnsn it is
shown to be absolutely safe, it would very
soon have ''ample capital of its own" We
have been pra ying and beggiag for more
railroads" for years. Why not devote little
energy and money in convincing railroads
that there is something to come for by utiliz-
ing the means providence has placed ut our
disposal AID which will return us ten fold.
railroad or no railroad.
There can be little doubt that the
camp so ably represented by the pen oil
the writer, will furnish it's own capital
and take care of itself. Its mineral de-
posits are capital enough for any com,
munity.
Silver City, Hillsborough, Cooney, La
Bell, Cochiti and White Oaks are some
! OF the localities in New Mexico where
the only capital required is pluck,
muscle, perseverance and industry with
a little commoa sense, to main.
tain them AS steady, renumeiative
bullion producers. These camps have
all shown that they are capable of yield
| ing the capital for their own develop
ment. They need no funds from the
outside to place their mines on paying
basis These cries for capital do not
come from such localities nor from the
men who are ready to work and force a
success, but from the corner grocery
loafer, or from those who are always
waiting for something to turn up,
without effort on their part, in the ac-
complishment.
Capital is desirable and railroads are
beneficial to country, but neither
can make a country; it must possess
something which will make investment
of capital and railroads profitable. II
they are combined with resources oi
value they can all advance to high
order of success. If not, all must result
in failure. If country is worthless
without capital it will only demonstrate
its worthle-sness by the use Of none.

day. Men who went to the slaughter as
warriors in the lists against King Rainey
said they did not object to defeat in open,
honorable battle. but they protested
against the speed with which the machine
put through its slate. The many friends
of aged Peter McArdle, whose safety was
for time IN jeopardy, think there was no
excuse for the wanton insults that were
heaped upon his head when he attem mpted
to speak. Besides the catcalls and yells of
'Get onto yourself, old Whiskers,' it is
generally held that it was the basest of in
suits to gather the aged orator by the nape
of the neck and elsewhere and boost him
from the stage ere he had passed the first
mile post of his peroration.
Just as Mr.. McArdle had addressed an
apostrophe to liberty and entered upon an
appeal for purity be felt himself within
the clutch of the bouncer. He made a
mute appeal to the mob and was hurled
back 10 his seat. This insult his friends
resent. They say that it outdo oes the wild
est orgies ever seen south OF Market.
Besides the wide breach in the Junta, it
becomes daily more apparent that there is
not single point whereon the Junta and
the regular Buckley crowd can meet for a
moment. The gold element is now gener.
ally understood as indorsing Phelan, and
1t becomes more apparent every hour that
the friends of Bryan and the silver ticket
will not be driven to stultlfy themselves
by supporting man who believes, in his
heart tnat the masses of his Democratic
associates are anarchists, Populists and
enemies of the established order of things.
1t is believed that Phelan's views on
god are the same as those of ex-Mayor
L. b. Pond, and that the Junta's man for
the mayoralty would have gone to the In.

THE GUNS sNORTED.
Some "Wind Shots" From the Dyna-
mite Battery Fired for General
Miles.

General Miles was at the dynamite bat
terry on the bluff above the fort yesterday
and some "wind shots" were fred for his
edifcation.
The test was one of the mechanisms OF
the guns only, and no shells were used,
but the force of the discharge was easily
seen by the way it cut the tops of the
young trees which are growing up in front
of the guns to mask" the battery.
The sound of the discharge could be
plainly heard for about mile and half.

to it. 1t is very like the sound which
might issue from an overworked exhaust
pipe, and 1T has not even body enough to
echo from the hills across the strait. IT
is at the other end of the range, however.
that the dynamite gun does business. and
this feature was not shown to the general
yesterday. His attention might have been
drawn to some big holes in the bluffs
across the water made when the guns were
really loaded, however, as proof that thew

Judge. The name of Frank LawIer was
substituted, but for some reason was not
voted on.
Charles Schaffer was suggested as q
nominee for Supervis or from the Sixth
Ward and Robert Munich as Surveyor.
The report of the committee on investi-
CATION stating that all suggestions of
names of nominees must be in by tonight
was read, and Stephen r. O'Keefe was
placed forward for Police Judge. Ballot
ing for four Superior Judges was then
begnn.
Amid loud reclamation it was announced
that total OF 104 votes were cast, which
stood as follows: A. A. Sanderson 29 f.
ii. Dunno 70; II. W. Phlbrook %, Robert
Ferrai 100. Joseph Leggett 95, w. &.
Burke 90, +. Murasky l6, Rhodes Borden
IL. Dunno, Leggett, Ferral and Burke,
receiving a majority over all, were de-
clared the nominees of the Peoples party.
Balloting was then had for Supervisor
from the Twelfth Ward. The name of 7.
q. Parker, Mayor Sutro's only opponent,
! was withdrawn by Attorney Haskell ac-
cording to Parker's wish, and Sutro's
/ nomination was made unanimous for
Supervisor from the Twelfth Ward. Loud
cheering followed.
There were two candidates from the
Eleventh Ward-J. A. Anthony (P.) and
d. d. Todd (D). Todd received 66 votes
to Anthony's 80 and was declared the
| nominee.
| The vote for the candidates from the
Tenth Ward was: For Charles Gildea ID. J.,
43; for William Fahey (D.), 4S, and for DR..
Rottanzi, z. No one was declared the
nominee, as no candidate received a
majority over all. A reballot resulted in
Fahey receiving 81 and Gildea 40. Fahey
was declared the nominee.

the Ninth Ward it was found necessary to

that the little bee OF am bition sung to him
the song that made him long to be at the
head of the municipality.
But the dissension does not end here,
for there are local issues that promise to
cause much more confusion, pickering
and bitterness.
There is not more persevering friend
of the new charter in San Francisco than
the Junta's kid-glove candidate. On the
other hand, Dimond is bitterly opposed to
the charter and stands ready to lead an
active fight against it. 1t is said that such
men as President Fletcher and others of
the improvement clubs seriously object to
having the clubs indorse Phelan, who is
president of the associated clubs. They
say they are not organized. for political
purposes, and that they will under no cir
cumstances be put in the position of an
auxiliary campaign committee of Sam
Rainey's Junta. 1t is more than probable
that the row over the attempt to have
Pheian indorsed by the clubs Will grow
much warmer, and that many of the mem
bers will fall in line and vote for Colonel
Charles L. Taylor.
Another element that greatly adds to
the Democratic confusion is the growing
strength of the Buckley crowd and the
determined opposition of the Populists to
the gold ideas of Mr.. Phelan. Many
Popocrats abolutely refuse to iudorse OF
appear to give countenance to a man
whose views are in opposition to the
main sentiment of the campaign, as seer
from Democratic viewpoint.
1t was quite plainly decided yesterday
that RaineY will name his own Super
visors. This means that the young mil,
lionaire's attempt 10 clean the Augear
stables of the Democracy will fail. Ii
consequence it is possible that still widel
confusion will result by the refusal O
Phelan to accept the Juntas nomination
So altogether the Democoats are sorely
pressed and few know where they stanc
and none have hopes of victory.

Cheers, shouts, stamping of feet. yells,

the demonstrations that in large part sup
planted the regular programme of the
Populists in convention to make nomina-
tions at Scottish Hall last night.
The body had hardly been called to or
d er and the investigation committee re-
ported favorably on the names of nominees
suggested ct the previous session, with the
single exception of Judge Hebbard, when
a small riot was precipited by a favora bl e
ruling of the chair as regards the possibiI-
ity of Judge Hebbard as a nominee for
Superior Judge.
Preliminary to this ruling it was de-
cided that four Superior Judges should be
voted for by each delegation, and that
after their names, when written on q
blackboard, should be placed a letter
showing if the candidates were also the
nominees of other parties. 1t was further
settled that any delegation casting more
votes than it was entitled TO should he
debarred from voting any more for the
evening. This rule was afterward re-
peatediy violated, but in each case the
delegation was permitted to correct its
vote.
