THE CAkDlCAGY OF W. j. MILLS FOR CHIEF
JUSTICE

"The Santa Fe New MEXICAN is advIs d
from q source deemed reliable, that the
appointment of Mr.. W. j. Mills, formerly
OF Las Vegas, recently q resident of New
Haven, Conn, has been determined upon.
Mr.. Mills is to succeed Chief Justice
Thomas Smith, whose commission ex-
pred about three weeks ago. II is un
derstood that Mr.. Mills has been indorsed
by Governor Otero for the position
named aud has strong Connectlcut back
ing, also some New Mexico influence be.
hind him."
The above item has been going the
rounds of the territorial press and seems
to be conceded as an accomplished fact
except Issuing the commission. The
completion of the scheme will give this
judicial district Democratic judge,
Dem ocratic court officials and make the
court machinery power of strength for
the Democratic party. All this Repub-
licans are supposed to tolerate and ex-
pected to indorse. If our people can
swallow such treatment without murmur-
ing they must expect villification from
the bosses.-Raton Range.
The New MEXICAN does not agree with
the Range in its progn ostications.
Mr.. Mills was resident and practicing
attorney of Las Vegas for about nine
years and is we'll known IN northern New
Mex ios and in Santa Fe as good lawyer,
an exemplary Citizen and a gentleman;
he enjoys an excellent reputation for
probity and honor. While here, for
time he affiliated with the Democratic
party, but was always sound money
man. He was the chairman of the Dem.
ocratic national committee of Connec-
ticut during the last campaign and
worked and voted for the election of
VIM. Mckinley for president, doing great
work toward obtaining the tremendous
majority the state of Connecticut gave
Mr.. Mckinley and the Republican ticket
last November. Since election he has
repeatedly declared that all his sym
pathies and principles were more in
accord with those of the Republican
party than any other, and that hence
forth he would affiliate with that party.
If appointed chief justice of the terri
toria, Supreme court, he will, of course,
adhere to Republican principles, and Re-
publicans will be named as court officers
wherever he has the appointment.
The New MEXICAN understands that Mr..
Mills is strongly Endorsed for the appoint
ment by prominent Connecticut Rspubli-
cans and by some leading New Mexico Re-
publicans. There is no good reason why
New Mexico Republican should not in
dorse Mr.. Mills, if he is of the opinion
that the appointment would be conducive
to the best interests of the territory,
would bring about proper and fair ad-
ministration of justice in the Fourth dis
trict and be benefit to the Republican
party. Why suoh Republican should be
called boss is not exactly clear.
Governor Otero has deemed II right
and proper to indorse Mr.. Mills for the
position. This is matter of personal
Judgment; he believes Mr.. Mills to be
proper subject for appointment and he
has said so. Other prominent Repub-
licans have done likewise. 1t was their
privilege so TO do.
The New MRxtoAN has Endorsed ex

named material will be much employed
for blouses, which have not yet abandoned
the field by any means, and it is also used
for trimming gowns Of velvet or faille
Gallons of gold, steel and silver and
cords and braids of mingled colors are fa-
vored for embroidering elegant jackets
They form trefoils, squares, lozenges or
simulate b6lero, belt or yoke, or serve to-
cover the seams. demonstrations Of light
satin, embroidered, are also very pretty
Since the diminution Of sleeves many
less capes are seen, but nevertheless this
style of wrap is by no means abandoned.

the decolletagc being square and cut to
fall off the shoulders. The bertha consists
of ruffle of white lace, embroidered with
gold, headed by narrow band Of black
feather trimming. The straps over the
shoulders are of steel, gold and pearl. The
sleeves consist Of small puffs Of satin.

Santa Fe, for a position on the
Territorial Supreme bench, and firmly
believes that his appointment would be
highly acceptable and very proper, either
as chief or associate justice, but that
does not prevent it from being fair and
reasonable in the premises and it pro-
poses to give Mr.. Mills his just dues and
certainly will respect the right of free
expression of preferences in such mat
tiers at all times and in all directions.

He Thought He Had The Rabbit, but Luck
Was Against Him.
Wash, as he was called for short (his
full name was George Washington Fair
fax Ball, and he had been a servant in
our family ever since could recollect)
started out one bright autumn morning
as happy as lark at the prospect Of a
days holiday, the loan Of Mr.. Georges
gun and hunt all by himself.
The only part he had ever taken in
the sport before was to "tote" home the
birds and rabbits Mr.. George used to
kill, but now he'll show 'em, he told
Nancy, his wife, "thet he wuz jest as
good er shot ez any of 'em. "
All day long he and the dog had
roamed the fields and forest, and many
coyey of birds they scared up and
many poor rabbit they frightened al
most to death, but nary a one of either
did they kill Or catch, and as the sun
went down over the hill, torn by the
briers SO that both he and the dog are
limping and tired Of life, they turn
their faces homeward with only one
loaded shell left in the gun and no
game in the bag. Wash at this point
remarked to the dog that thar mus
be sump'en ther mattah with you and
this heah gun. ~
They had gone but short distance
on their way back to the cabin when
they came suddenly upon what seemed
to be 'godsend, a trap in which was
caught live rabbit.
The dog forgot his sore feet and
barked with delight, and Wash actually
beamed as he addressed himself to the
rabbit to the effect that "I'ze a-gwine
ter kill you anyhow, Mr.. Cottontail "
Not satisfied with the ordinary meth
cd Of breaking his neck by stroke OF
the hand, he determined to bag his
game in more sportsmanlike manner.
He took the rabbit from the trap, and
to make assurance doubly sure" at
tached string to one Of his legs and
tied him to q tree, backed off o few
PAGES, took dead aim, blazed away,
missed the game cut the string and as
he watched the fleeing rabbit howled at
the top Of his voice: That's right,
run, On you'll Use a-gwine home my

The Supreme Court of California
has rendered an important decision
in case where man married his
mistress and, fearing trouble in the
future, put his property out of his
hands before marrying her. He
afterward deserted her and she
sued for a divorce, which she OBJ
tanned, together with $25 a month
alimony. The lower court held
that this judgment should be lien
upon the defendants property. and
that, although the parties were not
married at the time the conveyance
was made, it was done with the
idea to defraud her of her rights as
wife. The judgment of the court
below was therefore affirmed.
