OUR highly esteemed and very able
contemporary, the Albuquerque Demo
crat, does not approve of the change in
the political complexion of the NEW
MEXICAN. We can not blame our afore-
said contemporary in the matter. 1t is a
well known fact that which ever side the
New MEXICAN is on, that side is benefited.
And greatly benefited. There we're good
reasons for the change, the strongest rea-
son being, that the combination of Dem
ocrats who purchased the controlling in
terest in the stock three years ago could
not. meet the Required payments, and
therefore had to give up to syndicate of
good and public spirited citizens, who
stood ready to purchase. This was as
much of business transaction, as when
Mr.. Grant, owner of our able and es-
teemed contemporary, purchased it, with
this difference, that, although Republic
can in politics, Mr.. Grant considered it
for his own interests to continue the
Democrat in the old rut, whereas, the
syndicate of citizens purchasing the
stock of the New MEXICAN, all being Re-
publicans, and all having the courage of
their convictions, naturally changed the
politics of the paper.

REPRESENTATIVE BATEMAN has in prep
aration bill looking towards the relief
of counties and municipalities and pro-
viding for the payment of present and
outstanding Indebtedness and putting a
stop to the present runous policy in
financial affairs obtaining in most of the
counties. The question under considera-
tion by Mr.. Bateman is one of the most
important now confronting the people of
New Mexico and If Mr.. Bateman can show
the people of the territory a way out of
their present difficulties in this respect he
will certainly be the man of the hour.

A Change will Come. However.

The principal source of income of New
Mexico and Arizona is the sheep and
wool product. This industry created the
only real prosperity known in the terri
tories for many years. The course pur-
sued by the present administration has
paralyzed it, and, day, the condition of
the farmer here is worse than IN any 9th
or portion of the Union. Wool, before
the Democrats came into power, sold for
IA and Is cents pound. Ii is now sell
ing for from to and cents a pound.
From the moment it became apparent
that free.trade policy would be pur-
sued, the price of wool dropped, and
dropped, until it reached,lts present rates.

THE Albuquerque Citizen INDUCES the
hope that Gov. Thornton will appoint
some Republicans to fat territorial places.
We can not indulge any such hope. The
governor, we think, where the law requires
non BIPARTISAN commissions or boards, will
name minority of Republicans, but the
the other idea--no indeed. Too much TO
expect, and the millennium has not yet
arrived in sunny New Mexico.

Compiling the Laws.

The laws of the territory have not been
compiled since the compilation of 1884.
Since that time five legislatures have met
and passed laws which have been printed
in separate volumes, making six in all,
which contains the laws of the territory.
This has caused great deal of confusion
and the present legislature will do we'll to
consider the matter of new compilation
of the laws. The compilation of 1884 has
been ont of print for years and copies
now command An almost prohibitive
price.--Sllver City Eagle.

Regulating Tax Levy.


1t is an indisputsble fact that the
present method of conducting the affairs
of our counties, on credit basic, incurs
a large loss, or rather unnecessary ex-
pense, to the tax payer. Under the present
| system, the county commissioners are re-
stricted to levy of mills for the coun-
ty general expense fund. This levy falls
| short of meeting necessary demands, and
consequently the man having an account
against the county receives only an ap-
proved account until finds are at hand
with which to pay. These approved ac-
counts not being negotiable at par, ne
cessitate all doing business with the
county, to make an addition to the selling
price of any merchandise, ETC., sold to the
county. This can be avoided by so ar
ranging matters that the business of the
county be transacted on cash basis. If
the legislature would increase the power
of commissioners to make levy for the
general expense fund, if necessary, say of
mills, instead of mills, as at present,
this would bring about the desired result,
and the fact of any transaction with the
county being on cash basis would ma
terially decrease the expense, and in time
the levy would naturally decrease. The
benefits of such manner of conducting
business are apparent, and the common
sense of it should recommend it to the
legislature.-Rin Weekly.
***
Clerks Fees.
The office of district court clerk ia one
of the most important appointments in
New Mexico. To fill it properly requires
man Of ample ability and some legal
attachments. Any man who is qualified
for the place can easily make more than
the proposed salary in the practice of his
profession. Then, too, in the 4th judicial
district, and we suppose it is true of the
others, the business of the office eau not
be we'll carried on without two competent
deputy clerks. Good salaries must be
paid In order to secure competent men
for the places. Besides these facts, the
district is an immense one, and courts are
held from four to six weeks at time.
The clerk or deputy must go to the dis
tant courts, spend great deal of money
in travelling to and from the county seats
and be at very considerable expense for
accommodations while attending upon
court sessions at distance.
Thus, it will be seen that while the per-
quisites of the office may be large, the
necessary expenses connected with the
filling of the office are necessarily large,
also.
Of course, many men, who have been
failures at all else, will be willing to take
the Office and pretend to discharge its
duties at any salary. But the question is,
do the people want such incompetent Of
ficers? Is it not better to pay liberal
compensation, SO that the position will be
an object of desire to men best qualified,
and through whom we will get the best
discharge of important duties?
This much is said by the Optic, not
withstanding the olerkship in this judicial
district is already promised, in the event
certain anxious applicant gets the
judgeship.--Las Vegas Optic.
