BUSINESS MEN AROUSED.

The business men and property owners
of Santa Fe, regardless of political differ
ences, are thoroughly in earnest in their
opposition to the effort now making in
congress to tack an amendment, yalidat-
ing the fraudulent Brice and Coler rail
road bonds, to the bill pending before
congress approving the proposed issue
of bonds for aiding territorial institu
tions. And Republicans as we'll as DEM
ocrats severely censure Delegate Catron
for his negligence, to express it in the
mildest possible form, in failing 80 fully
to advise the senate on the subject that
the Brice amendment would have been
contem ptuously kicked out of that body.
This feeling among Republicans is SO
strong that already serious movement
is on foot to substitute the name of L.
Bradford Prince for that of T. B. Catron
on the Republican ticket for delegate this
year. Under these circumstances the unani-
nous choice of ex Gov. Prince as chairman
of an avowed Mckinley delegation to the
approaching Republican territorial con
vention, when it is we'll known that Dele.
gate Catron is pledged to deliver the New
Mexico delegation to Gear Reed, is more
than ordinarily significant.

PRESS COMMENT.
CatrOn's Opportunity.

The senate committee on public lands
has decided not to recommend the passage
over the presidents veto of the Murphy
bill for the leasing Of the school lands of
Arizona, but in lieu thereof will report a
new bill, so framed as to overcome the
objections of the president and of the OPP
ponents of the bill in Arizona. While
there Is strong possibility that such
delay, incurred SO late in the session, may
prove fatal to the bill, it will! insure the
placing of such safeguards about the
method of leasing the lands that all op-
position will be disarmed.
What is OF greater moment to us in New
Mexico is that by the introduction of a
substitute for the original measure, there
no longer exists any possible reason why
Delegate Catron should fail to secure
eq ual recognition for our territory with
that already accorded Arizona.
For the public schools of the territory,
which in many districts are sadly ham
pered by lack of funds, we feel that this
is rare opportunity. With the addl-
tional funds to be derived from the leases
of the school lands the terms of our
schools in the country districts will be
almost doubled and the general efficiency
of the educational system of the territory
will be materially promoted. 1t is safe
to estimate that there would be an added
income of more that 100000 under the
provisions OF such law.
In order to impress upon Mr.. Catron
the necessity of prompt action, we feel
that the hopes and desires of. the people
of the territory in this direction should
be publicly expressed and that the result
of snch action should be promptly con-
veyed to our delegate in Washington
There exists no further obstacles to New
Mexico sharing in the benefits of the
Murphy bill. In the present status OF
that measure the coupling of the names
of New Mexico and Arizona should give
increased strength to the progress of the
measure, which must not be allowed to
suffer any neglect or delay if it will be-
come a law at this acknowledgements

MATTHEW'S PROPKESY.

Gov. Matthews, of Indiana, is one of
the most sagacious and far-sighted men
ever engaged in western politics. He is
a close, conscientious student of measures
and men at all times. He has never made
p political mistake, aud his own brilliant
political achievements show that he has
remarkable foresight Therefore, when
Matthews gives it ont as his matured
opinion that either Harrison or Allison
will be the Republican nominee for presi.
dent the lesser prophets may we'll halt
and ponder. Gov. Matthews reaches his
conclusions by logical reasoning and il
need not surprise anybody to find that
this same logic will yet again throw the
nomination to Gen. Harrison, or, per
chance, to the Iowa statesman.

manner in which the constitutional CON
vention shall be held and as to the pro.
ceedings preliminary to final admission
of the new state.
1t is this bill which the senate commit
tee on territories on yesterday ordered
favorably reported to the senate. This
Iowa stateman's bill in an ayowed free
coinage senate is thus taken up and
pushed energetically and in a business
like way, while the poor old make-shift
of q partisan measure offered by our own
delegate of "energy and brains" is still
silently slumbering in the Republican
goldbug house committee on territories,
"unhonored and unsung." That's where
the Catron bill is-it's sleeping! The
Gear bill has the call. God bless Iowa!

RANK DECEPTION.

How grossly senator Brice deceived the
senate into adopting the bond steal
amendment is indicated by the wording
of the Washington press dispatches deal
ing with the subject, wherein the bonds
are spoken of as having been ''issned by
New Mexico" whereas the bonds, fraudu-
lent from start to finish, are not terri
torial bonds at all, but county bonds of
Santa Fe and Grant counties. It makes
mighty sight of difference, and ere this,
Senator Brice, Coler and Catron have
doubtless twinged few because their sin
has found them out. 1t was the most
vicious piece of deception that any pub
lie mans name has been identified with
since the helcyon days of Blaine, Multi
gan, ct al.

A SLEEPlMc BEAUTY.

We learn from the Ration Range that
Delegate Catron "had secured unani-
on his statehood bill" This is refreshing,
and lacks but one essential element to
give it Importance, that is, it isn't true.
The senate bill is not Mr.. Catron's at all.
1t was framed and introduced by Senator
Gear, of Iowa, at the earnest solicitation
of number of former Iowans who are
now good and worthy and progressive
citizens Of New Mexico. Besides, the sem
ate bill in many respects differs from the
Catrop bill. especially as regards the

AGAIN the New York Chamber of Com
merce appeals to "ell banks to exercise
their influence, as citizens, in their various
states, to select delegates to the present
political meetings in favor of the gold
standard" This is cheering for the cause OF
free coinage. Such open and ahove-board
acts as this will readily convince the plain
people of the country that the gold trust
now controls, and is wholly responsible
for the present deplorable state of busi.
ness. Such appeals merely serve to make
thinking men look calmly into the neces-
sities for change.

Ii Senator Gears New Mexico state
hood bill ever reaches the house unen-
cum bered with an amendment validating
the fraudulent Brice railroad bonds, Dele
gate Catron can be depended upon, as
the paid attorney for W. N. Collier, to see
that an amendment validating the equally
vicious Coler railroad bonds is hitched
to it. The fact that the United States
supreme court has solemnly pronounced
these two sets of bonds null and void
does not seem to weigh feathers weight
with either Brlce or Catron.

after leaving there, which he did quiet
", he went to Chicago and then came
TO New York. In both cities he has
wealthy friends who have promised to
back him with money in his big under
taking.
But the latestexplanation of the whole
matter, says the New York Journal, Ii
even more startling. Last winter Prof.
Dyche said to a reporter for a Kansas
City newspaper that he was secretly
planning for this summer a journey Of
arctic discovery, which, If it should
prove successful, would be one of the
greatest ventures of the century.
His programme was, he said, to go to
Alaska, and from there make trip
across the very northernmost bounda-
ries of North America, coming out
somewhere in Labrador. He would
gather on the way specimens of ami
mails, flora and geological formations
for the Kansas university, and, besides
all these, would bring back treasure
from the north that would startle the
scientific world.
Now, bearing in mind the declarations
he made before his departure about the
bringing of the meteorite and his in
disputable claim to the possession of il
the theory which his friends admit may
be the right one is that while he is jour.
neying across the continent from
Alaska, vessels equipped by his wealthy
New York and Chicago friends are to be
tnken to the north, that he and his party
are TO join them there and proceed tc
the site of the meteorite and stay right
by it at any cost.

ing idle. He is conscripting a party
and pushing the work of equipment for
ward with all the. haste consistent will

sail for the north some time in July.

GREATEST METEORITE.
It Lies Buried on the Shores of
Melville Bay.
Lieut.. Peary and Prof. Dyche Both Claim
1t and WIN Start shortly Toward
the North Pole to Get Pos
session of 1t.

Two men, both of whom know from
experience the perils of the ice-bound
oceans to the north, who have travelled
over the snow-covered wastes that keep
eternal watch and ward around the
pole, are racing thither, each deter
mined to bring back, if any power can
be found to raise and TO transport it,
the greatest meteorite that science has
any knowledge of.
This gigantic mass of solid iron,
weighing at the least estimate hun
dreds upon hundreds of tons, lies on the
shores of Melville bay. Explorer
Franklin was the first white man who
ever set eyes on the marvel. The ma
tives who showed it to him told him
that it had been there forever, and all
through those northern regions the
fame of il has lived among the tribes
from time immemorial. They call it
1.-The great iron stone"
How big this monster mass of soft
iron is not even the Esquimaux know,
for only a small portion of it protrudes
above the ground. 1t is, judged only
by what is visible, worth q fat fortune,
even in these days of billionaires.
The two men who have entered on
this swift race, with this huge iron
goal, are Lieut.. r. E. Peary, of Arctic
fame, and Prof. L. L. Dyche, of the
University of Kansas. There is a dis
pute between the two explorers as to
which is the real owner of the meteor
tie. Lieut.. Peary insists upon the
priority of his claim, but Prof. Dyche
says that When he went to Greenland
to bring Peary back from his Inflated
Arctic expedition, the natives showed
the wonder to them both, and both spoke
then of the feasibility of bringing it to
the United States.
Now Prof. Dyche has disappeared,
bound on some far, mysterious mission,
and the wise ones at the west say he
has gone to get the meteorite. From his
home in Kansas the word comes that
