the POSTMASTER GENERAL.

James Albert Gary, who has been Sc
lected for postmaster general under the
new administration, has been prominent
for many years in Maryland, where he has
resided since boyhood. Mr.. Gary was
born in Connecticut in 1888, from which
state his father removed to Maryland a
few years later, taking with him his
family.
Young Gary had his frat schooling in
the public schools OF Ellioott City, Md,
and afterward became student at Ale
ghany college, Meadville, Pa. President
William Mckinley was also student of
this institution at that time, and it was
here that fast friendship was formed
which has survived the intervening years.
During the war Mr.. Gary was loyal to the
Union. He has always been strong Re-
publican, and prominently identified with
the interests of his party. His father
was heavy manufacturer of cotton duck,

concern being located at Baltimore.
In 1861 the subject Of this sketch was
admitted to partnership in the firm, and
the business after the above mentioned
wear was conducted under the title of
James s. Gary & Son. The active intiu-
ence of the new member was soon felt,
and the growth and prosperity of the
company from the date of his member.
ship, was marked. In 1862, upon his
advice branch house was established in
st. Louis, which gave the firm a footing
in the west, and proved a most profitable
venture.
In 1870 james A. Gary succeeded his
father in business, and during the 20
years that have elapsed since he assumed
control, it has continued to prosper.
For several years Mr.. Gary was presi-
dent of the Merchants Manufacturers as.
ISOLATION. He is now vice president of
the Consolidated Gas company, and vice
president of the Citizens National bank.
He also holds dictatorship 10 the Savings
Bank OF Baltimore, the Warehouse COM
pany, the American Insurance company,
the Merchants & Manufacturers Insurance
company and the Baltimore, Trust &
Guaranty company.
His greatest prominence has been
achieved in the political field. In 1870
the Republicans nominated him for con-
gress in the Fifth district. The entire
state of Maryland waa strongly Demo
cratic and he was defeated.
When nominated for governor in 1879
he was overcome by the same Democratic
vote, which at this time precluded the
possibility of electing Republican to
any Office.
Mr.. Gary has been delegate to every
national convention since 1879, and from
1880 to 1896 he represented Maryland on
the Republican national committee. In
1856 he was married to Miss Lsvina Cor
RE, a Baltimore lady, and seven daugh-
ters and one son, have been the fruits Of
this happy union.

THE COMPILATION BILL.

Inc compilation bill yesterday passed
the council by vote of Six to -four, or 40.
curably speaking, eight to four, as two
members, Finical and Fall, while speak
ing in support of the measure, asked to
be excused from voting, for the reason
that they are named in the bill as MEM
bers of the compilation commission.
They would have voted had it been nec-
essary for the success of this measure de-
manded by a majority of the taxpayers
of the territory. The ablest speeches
that have been heard this session,
went on record yesterday in support
of the compilation bill, speeches
full of clear cut logic, voiclng
the sentiment of the better element
throughout all sections of New Mexico
and putting to rest the absurd cry of
''steal" raised by few disgruntled hand
organs through motives of a childish and
silly jealousy.
The efforts of Councilmen Spiess, Finical
and Fall in behalf of the measure, were
especially noticeable, as logical and con-
vincing arguments. Judge Fall said for
example that he had thoroughly investi-
gated the situation, and that he was salts
fed of an urgent need for compilation
of the laws. Further that he was con-
WINGED that the bill under discussion was
all right, perfectly fair and just in all its
provisions, and acceptable to the people
of the territory at large. He then went
on to state that the legislature two years
ago, had been obliged to pay $40 per vol
ume for four volumes of the Compiled
Laws of 18S4-and that the session laws
of 1SS7.1SS9 were worth from 81 to $40
per volume, and extremely difficult to pro-
cure.
Councilman Spiess spoke IN the
same strain. He too had examined
the provisions of this bill, and was
convinced that the measure was proper
and just, and that majority of the tax.
payers of the territory demanded it's en-
actment into law. The need of a compi.
lation was apparent enough to any one,
who would take the trouble to become
con versant with existing conditions.
Ia the face of such arguments as are
outlined above, it is absurd to suppose
that the bill contemplates anything but a
common good to the people of the terri
tory, who as matter of fact are solely
responsible for its enactment
Their representatives simply respond
ed to demand which had become gen.
eral in its tone, and the gentlemen who
supported it are to be commended for
the prompt manner in which they re-
sponded to the voice of their constitu-
ents.

through under the cover of darkness. 1t
has been under discussion for several
weeks, and has been duly considered
throughout all sections of the territory.
Every newspaper in New Mexico has had
something to say on the subject, either
pro or con. The people were asked for
verdict through their Representatives
now in session at the capital, and that
verdict was rendered yesterday.

other members. It hns been a sharp fgh,
and there has been no little feeling arous

Agent Negotiating tor the Purchase
of Unsecured Right of Wny-Pre-
diction That Engines VIII Re"ch
There by March.

Lewiston. Idaho, Dec. l6.-The report
from Boise, that the Northern Pacific had
in view the immediate extension OF the
Palouse branch to this city, has been
the cause of great excitement here ana
the subject has been one OF general dis
cussion. The report has been substantl-
ally eorroborated by the appearance here
of n. c. Relf of Tacoma Northern Pacific
representative, who Immediately opened
negotiations with property owners east
of the city for the purchase of unsecured
right of way. When the railroad was
working on the extension in 1890 the
right of way from the reservation to the
city was purchased except small strips In
an orchard east of this. This will cost
about $4,000, and when the representative
completes negotiations with owners it IS
understood he will ask the citizens to ad-
vance that amount as subsidy. only
u small amount Of grading between this
point and Juliaetta is to be done, and If
this subsidy is raised it is stated the first
engine will reach Lewiston in late March.

IDAHO SHEEP LAW VOID.
Two sections in Conflict With the
Federal Constitution.

Boise, Sept 10. - The supreme court
held yesterday unconstitutional those
sections of the sheep inspection law rela-
tive to sheep being driven into the state.
They are found to conflict with section 2,
article 4. and section 8, article /, of the
federal constitution. The case was that
of the state VS. James Duckworth, con-
victed in Oneida county of violation of
the act. The sections invalidated are g
and Ia of the act of 1895, as amended by
the law of 1897 The court says:
Under the guise of inspection and
quarantine, said sections place unneces-
sary burdens and restrictions upon bring
ing sheep into this state for any purpose
whatever, or transporting them through
the state to the markets of the east, and
make unnecessary and prejudicial dis
examinations against sheep whose owners
may desire to bring them into the state,
and are repugnant to the provisions of
the federal constitution"

SALARIES WERE CUT OFF.
Kansas Legislature Made "a Mistake
Affecting Probate Courts.

Topeka, Kan Dec l3-A condition
confronts so of the los probable judges
of Kansas which is anything but pleasant
and consoling. It has just been discov
cred that big blunder was made by the
legislature last winter, which, after Jan-
uary |, will cut off the salaries of these
officials, In its efforts to retrench and
reform the populist Legislature passed Il
general fee and salary bill which will leave
the probate judges in the western half
of the state practically without compen-
sation Heretofore these officers receiv-
ed salary of $500 a year and all fees
of the Office. The new law gives them
half of the fees and, in repeating the old
law, failed to provide for Il salary. The
new law. compels the probate judge to
keep his office open six days in the week.
In 80 of the counties of Kansas the an
nual fees will not average 500 year.
