Silver City, New Mexico, is a
town Of less political strife than
probably any incorporated COM
munity In the United States. .
Wouldn't Il be nice II such an ex-
issence Of political feeling pre-
vailed in ell other cities2-Spnng-
or Stoukman.
This is the universal comment
Of the press Of the Territory.
The Stockman might also truth
fully add that We also have the
cleaneat, best governed little city
in the southwest All this IL
made possible through the willing
ness Of our best men 20 serve The
municipality and guard It's inter-
ests impartially, without fear, fa-
vor OF hope Of pecuniary reward.
When IL is remembered that Hon.
}. w. Fleming has been chosen
mayor Of this city at ten cOnseC-
utive elections. almost without op-
position, and that the members Of
the council are slmost invariably
elected TO succeed themselves, is
not our plan approved and worthy
OF emulation2 This is our plan:
We have a general mass meeting,
select the best men In the town 10
fll the Offices and whenever a
crOaker or a political 'pie fiend"
sticks bis head up we down him.
II you want pure city government
just try our plan; its all right, and
works like magic.

Through q combination Of ig-
nOranOe, hatred and political in
trigue the Territory Of New Mex
leo, which is making such a bs.oic
effort TO gain admission to the
sislerhood Of states, Is sustaining
injuries, through the slanderous
press Of the east which Il will re-
quire years to surmOnnt The
following. clipped from Leslie's
Weekly, Of the Srd inst, is q fair
sample Of the manner in which
We arc being maligned;
"The bill for the admission Of
New Mexico as a state Of the
Union has been favorably report
cd in the senate, only one vote
being recorded against Il In the
senatorial committee. This mega
tive vote was that Of Senator Sew
ell. Of New Jersey, who opposes
the bill on the ground that the
American population is In q mi
nority in the Territory. The OBJ
lection strikes us as q sound one.
There is no conceivable iustifica-
ton Of q policy which would build
q state out Of the heterogeneous
alien elements which Il is pro-
posed by this bill 70 constitute as
as a distinct autonomy. The pop
ulation Of New Mexico is not only
mixed and without coherency Of
language, customs, or tastes, but
IL is ignorant and, TO a consider
able extent, actually pagan. Only
a Eaeagre minority of the people
are even approximately qualified
for the duties OF citizenship or the
responsibilities of government, and
no greater violence could be done
10 our republican system than 10
admit q territory thus populated,
with conditions 30 unfriendly, to
the exercise of sovereignty as &
state of the Union. Let New
Mexico wait until it can measure
up to the reasonable requirements
of statehood. We have already
enough-tOo many, in fact. Of
these petty states, which, having
neither any considerable popula-
tion nor any substantial interests
outside Of their mining industries,
are able by combining their votes
in the senate TO defeat measures
Of legislation demanded by the
business necessities of sixty mil
lions Of people, and to expose our
whole financial system to the peril
Of disintegration."

An anonymous correspondent,
in the New Mexican, over the
quizical nom de plume "R. y. o.

republican camp at this place last
week by announcing the slate
agreed upon for legislative and

binatiOn 6xsrs at the late republi-
can convention. Here is the slate:
w. II. Jack. council; r. II. Theil-
man. lower house; Richard Hud-
son, collector; Geo. o. Perrault,
sheriff; Ed. Moulton, assessor; B.
Y. McKeyes, clerk; Homer Tar
bill, 10 E. Sheridan, o. r. Smytho,
County commissioners. The cor
respondent also claimed that ID.
P. Carr, for the lower house; T.
N. Childers, for assessor; Thos.
Foster, for County commissioner
and Arthur GoOdell. for sheriff,
will demand recognition from the
convention which will assemble
for tho purpose Of rAtifying the
action Of the slate makers. OF
course this Is . republican row in
which the SOUTHWEST SENTINEL
has no interest beyond the fact
that through II will come success

RAcTs ARoUr FREE COINAGE.

FACTS AbOUT FbEB COhNAGEs
Silver was demonetized by the
United Stetes in 1873, by a bill
which has since become famous
for what it did not contain; q bill
which was innocently called "A
Codihcation Of the Mint Laws"
and which provided for ell the
coins now in use, except the
standard silver dollar. This bin
was prepared by experts ia the
treasury department. and after
being introduced several times in
each house Of congress was passed
by both houses and signed by
President Grant While it can
hardly be believed that the "ex
perts in the treasury department"
or the men who took charge of
the bill in congress, we're ignorant
of the contents of the bill,o rath-
er it's nOn-contents, yet many Of
the men who voted for the meas
ure have repeatedly declared that
when they voted therefor, they
did not believe and did not know
they were voting to drop the coin
age of the silver dollar; the most
important measure ever passed in
the American congress. Gold
monometalists now assert, that the
bill was debated during several
sessions of congress and that the
record of those debates occupies
more than fifty pages Of the Con
gressional Record. Yet that record
in no place, where this measure
was being considered, bears a sin
gle statement in favor of the drop
ping Of the silver dollar. Nor is
there a word in favor Of destroy
ing one of the money metals of
the nation. President Grant has
left his statement upon record,
that when he approved the meas
ure and gave it his signature he
knew not that the bill made any
serious change in the CONS of the
country. But suppose that not
only the President but the sena-
tors and representatives knew what
was intended by the bill; the
American people outside of con-
gress knew nothing Of it. 1t was
never called by any political
party, by any state or body of cit
izens in any quarter Of the coun.
try. No petition asking for the
destruction Of the silver dollar
was ever sent TO the house or the
senate. The sOvereigns-the peO.
ple-knew not what Was going on
they we're not consulted and were
not allowed a hearing. The inter.
ests Of the. toiling millions surely
we're not consulted nor considered
and from the day when silver wa
struck from the coinage laws the
interest which secured that aci
has succeeded in preventing the
American people from expressing
an opinion on such act And
when the fact that silver wss more
valuable in the markets Of Oul
country than gold the aforesaiS
act becomes more heinous and 4
by many rightly called q 'crime.

cans could obtain one ounce o.

dia cotton have almost ruined our
agricultural interests. Silver pur-
chases wheat aud cotton today at
almost the same prices in Asia as
thirty years ago, and as the Euro
pean buyer Of Asiatic agricultur-
al products can buy our silver for
half what he could in the sixties
80 can he buy his food and cloth
ing for half the price before the
successful war on silver. When
Baron Rothschild at the late Brus-
sells International Conference said
that he thought it"more of a bles-
sing than q curse" to have wheat
worth so cents instead Of $1.20;he
spoke as an Englishman represent

was not considering Americans

can farmers received one dollar
per bushel for their wheat the sill

times by restoring silver to its

FATAL KICK OF A HORSE
Joseph Bell, COlored, Dead From
His Injuries.
Animal Belonged TO Michael Shea y
Stable and Had Been Con-
sidered Gentle.

Joseph Bel, colored, living at No. 21
Queens alley, between L and NJ and
Eighteenth and Nineteenth streets north
west, was kicked TO death 10y a horse
yesterday afternoon about O'Clock, at
Michael Shea's stables.
Bell, who is about fifty-eight years old,
was a general help at the stables, which
are also located in Queens alley. He
had been there for more than a year, and
IT is said. had often worked around the
horse which caused his death yesterday s.
The horse is considered gentle and no cause
is assigned for his show o. iI.-:emper yes
terdaY.
At Bells house, last night, il was stated
that as soon as IL was learned that he
had been injured, DIR. Ford Thompson
was summoned, but that Bell had expired
before he arrived. In the meantime the
Emergency ambulance had been called, but
finding Bell corpse he was not removed.
Bells wife stated that it could not have
been more than twenty minutes from the
time her husband was kicked until he died.
When brought TO the house, which is only
about twenty-five yards from the stable,
he was unconscious, and he died without
regaining CONSCIOUSNESS.
No one who saw the death blow given
was seen last night, but one of Belts
sons said he was told ii was a terrific
one. T he horse planted both heels in
Bells side with such force as to throw
him several feet out of the stable door.
Bell was an Union soldier and DIRE W
a pension OF SS a month He leaves a
Wife, daughter and five sons.
