Of 1887 are out of print entirely, and the

COMPILATION OF LAWS NEEDED.

In recent issue, the Las Vegas Ex-
aminer calls attention to the alleged fact
that the only newspapers in the territory
hungering for compilation of the laws
of New Mexico are the Santa Fe NEW
MEXICAN and the Albuquerque Citizen,
and then adds: "Does anybody need ask
why?"
Well, hardly. tt We aid seem to us that
in view of the numerous clear and logical
reasons set forth in defense of the much
needed compilation referred to above, the
question would be entirely superhuous.
We are reasoning now of course from the
assumption that the person or persons
to whom these reasons we're addressed,
have been gifted with ordinary intelli-
gence. For those who reckon themselves
outside of this classification, and by in
dulging in superhnous and silly query,
prove the reckoning correct, we are will
ing to reiterate the reasons which lead
Us to the conclusion that the laws of New
Mexico should be compiled.
The laws as they stand to-day on the
statute books are a hopeless muddle,
about as intelligible as Chinese puzzle.

DIRECTIVE SHIPS.

1t ia nbont time that American ship
builders and marine architects should
turn their attention to the problem of
making ships more seaworthy, with lit
tie less attention to the matter of speed.
The north Atlantic squadron, composed
of the very lower of the American navy,
ran into storm the other day off Hat
teras, and came very near being destroyed.
Four lives were lost, eight men were Sc.
riously injured, and all the ships were
more or less battered. We have no bet
ter ships than the New York, the Maine
and the Columbia. If they are not built
to stand little gale off the North Caro-
line coast, how is ii possible to class
them with our first class fighting stock.
The storm from all accounts was not Of
unusual severity, and did no great havoc
among merchantmen. As before stated,
in the construction of our ships of war,
the question of speed alone is made the
one essential requisite for passing the
government boards Of examination.
Given high rate of speed, and no qaes-
tions are asked. IL seems about time
that our ship should be made seaworthy
es we'll as swift,

PULLMAN COMPANY MATTERS.

Several bills are pending in the assem-
bly,, having for their object the regula-
ton of fares and charges by the Pullman
Palace Car company and compelling that
company to pay fair and equitable tax.
Heretofore, by underhand Vaccinations,
that com pany has escaped taxation and
as for the regulation of fares or charges,
the company has acknowledged no su-
perlor except its own sweet will and that
has been directed towards squeezing the
travelling public and towards making
the people pay all that the business would
stand. In Indiana, Pennsylvania, Mime
sofa and other states, legislation has been
enacted curbing the rapacious and shy.
lock spirit and will of the company,
compelling it to pay taxes and regulat-
ing the fares, charges, manner of doing
business and the like in the interest of
the public. The 32d legislative assem-
bly, of the territory, now in session, should
follow the example set it by many other
states in the Union and enact legislation
for the benefit of the people, restraining
the Pullman Car com pany from further
oppression anu making the company
bear fair share of the burdens of taxa
tion for the support of our territorial
and county governments

Gratis and Populists ia repUlsive 60 his
sense of harmony. He would keep Popu-
ism "untainted" with either Dem
or Republican influence. His protests,
however, will avail nothing, nor would
the objections of all the Populists lead
ers be effective in staying the strong cur
rent, which has set in toward the dark
sea of Democracy. The handwriting is
on the wall, and the line of demarkation
between Populism, and that which Il
western legislator recently termed "the
rampant free silver Democracy" is very
rapidly vanishing. 1t is the merging Of
the two congenial currents, the irresiati-
BILE dow of water that seeks its own level.
Unless a sudden and distinct change
should occur in present tendencies, which
is not at all likely, the two parties will
ere long be merged into one.
1t ia this tendency of the rank and file
that constitutes the potency in forming
party lines and not the protests or per-
sonal objections of few self-constituted
leaders. 1t will be disoordant party
even then, for there are more elements to
be considered than those mentioned above
elements which will always present a
broken and inharmonions front to the
solid ranks of the Republican party,
marching on to victory in perfect accord,
under leaders whose merits have been
tested upon many hard fought field.

A GREAT CHANGE.

US. LABOR CONN WRIGHT has just
issued very interesting report on the
employment of men and women in in
dustrial establishments, especially touch
ing upon the relative efficiency of the en-
ployes, wages paid, etc. The report COW
ers g great number of establishments,
distributed throughout thirty states, and
so may be considered representative of
the whole country. From this report it
appears that the number of women en-
ployed has increased in greater percent
age than the number of male employees,
and there are many employments in
which women are preferred. In such en-
Payments it is asserted that females are
neater, more temperate, less difficult of
control and that they learn more readily.
1t is beyond question that the entrance
of a great number of women into indus
trial occupations in competition with
men will work great change in its bear
ing upon the future of this country. The
change is entirely due to the women them
selves, who have demanded emancipation.
This is demand which in justice should be
granted, though it is not probable that the
final result will improve their condition.
Few American girls, a generation ago,
were obliged to give serious thought to
making living. Men earned money
enough to support their families without
the necessity of sending their wives out
to add to the family income. But all that
has changed, and, as before stated, the
change is due to the woman themselves.
The result must be less of the pleasures
of home life for them and harder work
than before this industrial revolution.

THE RHODES INVESTIGATION.

Cecil Rhodes has arrived in England
and signifies his readiness for searching
examination into his connection with
the Jameson raid of something over a
year ago. This will entail an inquiry
into the affairs of the British South
African company, of which Rhodes was
the creator, and of which he has always
been the controller, and its attitude
toward the South African republic. This
will be the scope of the nvestigatton, as
outlined in recent press dispatches,
and this means that thorough over
hauling of the whole British policy in
South Africa will be made. At first sight
it does not seem reasonable to suppose
that the British investigating themselves
will bring to light any glaring defects
of policy or anything of sensational
nature in the relations between the two
people. This very thing, however, has
happened on more than one occasion.
1t happened in the case of Warren
Hastings, which case presents many
similar points to that of Cecil Rhodes.
Both were ambitious adventures at the
head of great commercial companies
doing business in South Africa. Both
enjoyed immense concessions from the
two governments and both abused their
privileges in quest of wealth. Hastings
was pulled down from his high position
and dishonored before his country and
the world for high crimes and mis-
demeanors. 1t remains to be seen what
the outcome of the Rhodes investigation
will be. England always finds it con-
venient to repudiate the acts of her
adventurous subjects abroad when they
are unsuccessful. The question naturally
suggests itself, what would have been
the result had Rhodes succeeded in
adding greatly to British territory? Had
he been successful, would he now be in
England waiting to be investigated by a
commission of his countrymen9 "Nothing
succeeds like success" and this holds
good with nations as we'll as with indi-
viduals.

ers should be cut down and a saving of a
couple of thousand dollars per year eff

dent of the penitentiary should be made

AS To Insurance Companies.

House bill No. 81, compelling insur
ance companies doing business in this
territory, to make deposit of $4,000
with the treasurer of the territory to be
held for the security Of policy holders is
a good measure. The only fault we find
with it 10 that it does not make the de-
posts 100000. The insurance compan-
les are q constant drain to community
without giving anything in return. They
pay no taxes and generally do all their
business through small agency kept by
half-paid employees. The policy holder
is entirely OF the mercy of the company.
If the company refuses to pay a policy
there is no way to compel them, az they
have no property subject to execution,
and even should the claimant 60 to the

sound sense in Chaves County.

There are not two dozen men in the
town of Roswell or possibly Chaves
county who would not be glad of the
opportunity to get a beet sugar factory
if their votes in favor of exempting it
from taxation for six years would ac-
oomplish the desired end. Roswell and
Ohaves county is the DEM crstic strong
hold of New Mexico but the people there
are willing to lay aside the principles of
Democracy long enough to build up the
town by inducing sugar factory even
by exemption from taxation for six
years. There is not another community
in the United States SO fortunate as Eddy.
Hundreds of towns of ten times the size
of Eddy have offered exemption from
taxation for sugar factories and even
given bonuses but failed to secure the
factories Eddy Current.
