ACCORDING to the Del Norte
Enquirer, Conejos politics need
probing as much as Denver. Cone
jos has large ignorant population
Just the stuff for political cor
ruption to feed upon. The ma
chine is composed Of the leaders
OF all parties which subsidies all
the newspapers in the county at
the county's expense. Referring
to the cesspool of corruption known
as the Conejos county gang, the
Enquirer says:
Last fall in one precinct in that
county nearly 100 votes were
polled before the polls had been
opened half an hour, and during
that time there were not to exceed
half dozen men in sight. In that
county the gang received a ma
jority of 1000 where less than
2,3O0 votes were cast. The work
ers" in that county have defied the
will of the people 80 long that
they have grown bold and boast of
their achievements in this line. 4
gang of political leeches have fas-
tened themselves at the head of
the county government and they
are prepared to turn out republi-
can majority, a democratic major
ity or populist majority, of from
400 to 1900 according to the ''in-
ducements" held out. This gang
though robbing the people and
piling up Indebtedness which the
present generation will never s-e
paid, cannot be removed on ac-
count Of their powerful machine.
Taxpayers are groaning under the
burden they must carry, but they
seem to he helpless. There is not
an intelligent man in the county
that does not recognise and admit
that this is true, but the machine
that boasts Of its ability to convict
and "cquit according to its pleas
ure, is 30 powerful that it means
Punishment to protest
Judge Holbrook might follow
the example Of Judge johnson,
and call grand jury to investi-
gate affairs in Conejos. The editor
OF the Enquirer will personally
guarantee to furnish something
for q grand jury to work upon"

The senate has debated the tariff
during the week. The house bill
was prepared by committee and
railroaded through tho lower
branch Of congress as soon a. It
was organized in extra session. No
amendments and no debate were
allowed by that body. When the
bill reached tho senate it went to
committee where it was discussed
for three months, and with several
hundred amendments recommend
ed, it is now before tho senate for
debate.
There is but little or no dispute
AZ to tho principle Of incidental
protection SO long a. our revenue
is raised by tariff. The Wilson
bill passed by the last democratic
congress recognized this principle.
The struggle now is over schedules
or, in other words, how can locRli-
ties or individuals or combinations
secure tho most protection or al
vantage over their fellows. The
republican party, or tho east, has
gone back on cattle and sheep aud
now demands free wool aud free
hides. The great west aud south
insist on some share of protection,
and are fighting Tor protection 70
