Buffalo Bits WDd West exhibition has
a great value by reason OF IT'S educating
influence. In the hurly-burly Of American
life. people are too apt to forget the his
tory or their own country They are apt
to forget the tolls and sacrifices OF those
who labored 10 redeem the great West
from barbarism and 20 make it con-
spicuous and creditable part OF the
American Commonwealth. IL is a thrill
ing story OF heroism throughout. the half
OF which will never be told. Those who
see the entertainment win learn more OF
the habits and tho characteristics Of the
Indians and scouts than they can posi-
blv learn from the perusal Of books The
show is especially interesting TO the un-
travelled and unread. II fixes facts in
the memory in such a way that they can
never be forgotten.
In all the worlds history such n series
Of receptions as was accorded to them in
Europe was never before known The
crowned heads OF every civilized country
saw them and united in the declaration
that they were the people. They gave
unioue entertainments on State occasions,
AT which kings acted as field marshals,
and everywhere they were treated with
the utmost consideration. u VIII be seen
here on October 10th.

AN OPINION.
The Sollcitor-General Renders One
to the City, ON the Bateman Law.

SANTA FE, N. M, August 9Th, 1897,
Hon, r. e. Olney, Mayor, city of Id,
Vegas, Las Vegas, ". M:
DEAR SIR:-I am in receipt Of your
letter, dated July 30th, accompanied
by u from Hon. q. v. Long, district
attorney, in both of which my Official
opinion is requested as to the proper
construction OF section 20 OF the Bate
man law, (being chapter 40 OF the
laws OF the thirty second legislative
assembly, While, under the law, it
is not my duty to give the advice you
request. the fact that nay doing SO
may. as you suggest, conducs to a
uniform course by parties concerned
throughout the Territory, leads me to
comply with your request.
Your inquiry is, whether the Bate
man act Is In force for the present
year, or whether, by reason OF the
fact that the current year, for the pur-
pose Of that act, runs from the first day
of January, the operation OF the act is
deferred until the first day OF January
next following its passage; that IS,
ihfd9difyy. l1ats 1898. Replying to this
opinion, the operation of the act, In
the respect to which you refer, began
Immediately upon It's passage. Not
only is this true because the act saws
so. (sections 10 and 23), but because
there Is nothing in the act to make it's
operation from the date of Its passage
a matter of impracticabiiity. While il
is true that the legislature could not
pass q law that would be retroactive in
its effect, so as to make that law in
force during that portion of the year,
from January LIST, 1897, to March 18th.
1897, the date of the passage OF the
act, it is difficult to see why the legis.
lature bad not the power to provide as
to the months in the year subsequent
to the passage OF the act. While the
law could not aft ct so much of the
year as had passed, prior to it's pas
sage, 1t could and did affect that por-
ton of the year subsequent to its
passage.
Considering the financial year pro-
vided for in the Bateman law, there.
fore, as ending on the last day of De.
cember of this year, (section 20 of
that act), the provisions Of that law
TO BE- observed and followed from
the date of its passage to the end of
the financial year thus provided for.
Very respectfully,
ALBERT B. FALL,
Solicitor General OF New Mexico.

FRIDAY EVENING, SEPT. 10. 1897.
ARE THEY DISHONESTY YES,

There is a class of people in every
community, Las Vegas not excepted,
who make the times hard for all. We
refer to those who are forever buying
on account and borrowing. with no idea
OF meeting their obligations.
The man who borrows a dollar from
you and promises to pay at such a
date and does not, from sheer indif-
ference of his debt, has done two
things to his injury. He has lost your
respect for him and weakened his own
character.
Nothing is more dispiriting to the
careful, Woodworking business man
nou VINO could pay If
they would. There are men in this
town with money in the bank who owe
small accounts to men to whom every
dollar means a great deal, and yet do
not pay up.
There are young men who begin life
in this happy-go-luoky amer They
swell around in fine clothes unpaid for,
and indulge in cocktails and HaYa mas
bought with money borrowed from
their comrades. Livery biJs, barber
bills, dry goods bills, board bills, laun-
dry bills and countless other bills meet
them at every corner without causing
the a single ~sleepless night or q
blush of shame. They have no pros
poets in life; the community suffers
from their presence and tramp life, and
the criminal courts, eventually become
their destiny.
They seem to think that the world
yves them a living. The world owes
no man a cent that he does not earn.
The man who spends the earnings Of
another is a dangerous citizen.
The man who early learns that every
cent must be the product Of his own
labor, and must be accounted for;
whose sense OF obligation il so keen
that he worries over every debt, or
learns to never contract such, becomes
a successful man and a safe, reliable
citizen. Il{Il Is Sc
Some guard should be provided
against these embezzlers of the COM
munity. We believe Imprisonment
might effect a cure. in many instances.
A lesson or two. we believe, would do
mo- harm.
While we have all charity for the
poor, honest man. who pays when he
can, we have none whatever for such
debfsin make no effort to pay Just
You call a man, who borrows from
you and does not pay, even while you
meet him daily in fine clothes and with
