The Compilation Law.

The enactment of law providing for
a compilation Of territorial laws passed
by the last legislature, is meeting with
almost universal approval among the
people, who have come to realize that the
gent, and in the interest of an efficient
administration Of the statutes, not to be
longer delayed.
There was very little opposition to the
measure from any source, for its need
was apparent, and the people, almost to
man, were heartily tired and Disguised
with the old order of things, which con.
stituted standing barrier in the path of
efficient administration.
One or two newspapers, disgruntled be
cause of not being allowed hand in the
work, raised cry of extravaganza, while
practically admitting that compilation
would be good thing for all concerned.
This constituted all the opposition Of.
fered. People generally throughout the
territory favored it, and the Legislators
acted in concert to carry out the wishes
of their constituents. The bill developed
heavy majority in both branches, and
there were several votes to spare from
members who we're named in the meas
ure as officials to carry out it's provis-
ions.
The expense to the territory will be
less than $4,000, and in carrying its pro.
visions into execution, which will he
speedily done, condition will be RENE

patiently sought relief.-Eddy Argus.

THE FINANCIAL SITUATION.

The Weekly Financial Review again de-
votes considerable space to the U. s. Su-
preme court decision on the Transmits
souri, Freight association case, and the
general feeling Of Generalization grow
ing out of this unexpected opinion. Last
weeks Review stated that the attorneys
for the railroad associations were prepar-
ing an opinion as to the best thing to be
done under the circumstances.
The recommendation of these attorneys
was to the effect that no new arrange
ments be undertaken at present, but that
existing associations continue their pres
ent arrangements in force until decision
npon the appealed case is reached by the
Supreme court. This recommendation
continues the Review. drought about a
marked improvement of feeling in Wall
street.
1t was seen that the danger of rate cut
ting and of lepsing into violent competi-
ton pending possible period of chaos
had been reduced to minimum, and the
tone with which the advice of the counsel
was delivered was suggestive of some
considerable hope on their part, that the
Supreme court might find differences be-
tween the case of the Trans-missouri as
soclation and that of the Joint Traffic
association which would warrant favor
able decision in the latter case. This
possibility was considered all the strong
er from the fact that the Trans missouri
association decision was carried by a
majority of only one member of the
court, 30 that a change in the attitude OF
one member of the late majority might
tions existing under the Joint Traffic
association. -.
This chance is also strengthened by the
fact that the late decision has produced
such profound disturbance in the chief
source of investments in the country, and
that it has met with strong disapproval
among our most intelligent ard conserYa-
tive classes"
The Review says that the question of
the application of this antitrust law to
railroads is Il great complicated and diff
cult one, and that its final solution by
legal enactment can only be reached by
calm and more or less protected delibera-
ton. The Review is of the opinion that
it is highly desirable as first step in
congressional treatment of the question
should be to arrest the progress of pub
lie decentralization and the needless
sacrifice of investments, by the prompt
adoption of law exempting the anti
trust law from application to railroads.

Mr.. HALE'S OPPOSITION.

Senator Hale denies that Spanish pris-
ons are stuffed with Americans, and calls
Senator Morgan to account for daring to
make such an assertion on the floor of
the senate. Perhaps Mr.. Morgan's state
ment is slightly exaggerated, but there
can be no doubt that great many Amer
leans, and noncombatants at that, are
confined in Spanish prisons On trumped
up political charges. To deny this is to
charge Consul General Lee with falsifica-
ton, and to repudiate the statements of
dozens of newspaper correspondents and
resident Americans, who are in q position
to know the facts. That these prisoners
we're grossly neglected by the Cleveland
administration and left to work out their
own destiny with their heartless captors,
is equally undenlable. With the new ad-
ministration there has been disposition
to remedy as far as possible this dis
graceful condition of affairs, and it i'll
becomes Senator Hale or any other Amer
loan legislator to stand in the path of
reform. II Senator Morgan's statement
was slightly overdrawn when he said that
Spanish prisons we're stuffed with Amer
leans, Senator Hale's denial was palpably
false and misleading, for he sought to
convey the impression that there we're no
Americans in confinement on the island
of Cuba needing the immediate interven.
ton of the United States government.
1t would be impossible to state just how
many Americans are in Spanish prisons
on the island. To say that these prisons
are stuffed with Americans, is intended to
convey the impression that they are full
to overaowing, and this is evidently not a
fact, at least 80 far as the statement re-
lates to Americans. One thing is certain
our prisoners are receiving fairer treat
ment under Mr.. Mckinley than under
Mr.. Cleveland, and there is an evident in
tention on the part OF the administration
to establish and maintain policy under
which some degree Of mercy shall be
made to enter into Spanish dealing with
Americans on the island. II Senator Hale
has no disposition to assist In carrying
out this policy, too long deferred, he will
do we'll to hold his peace, and allow It to
90 on by virtue of ADLER and better men.
To oppose such policy lie almost Grim
inal, and opposition from any source at
this time should subject the obstruoti on
ist, whoever he may be, to the ostracism
of all true Americans.

The latest thing in the trust line is q
farmers combine, organized for the pur-
pose of keeping up the price of bread
stuffs by putting only limited quantity
on the market from month to month.
The organization is reported as growing
rapidly in many states, but is very
doubtful if the scheme can be carried to
a successful consummatlon. The farmer
of today has departed from the standard
of economy of so years ego: The farmer
Of today is generally borrower instead
of a lender. His sons attend expensive
colleges and his daughters are taught to
use the latest fashions. Hence it is that
so many farmers are in debt, and SO
many farm houess decorated with the
shcriff's red flag. There will be farm
ers' trust in this country, when the farm
or returns to the thrifty conditions of SO
years ago, thing which is not at all
likely to happen.

The Curse
Of Mankind!.

The most horrible disease to which
the human family is subject is conta-
gious blood poison. 1t has always
baffled the doctors, for Notwithstanding
the progress made in some branches of
medicine, they have failed absolutely to
discover cure for it. Whether in the
form of powder, pill or liquid, the doc
tors prescription is always the same
potash or mercury.
Mr.. Otto H. Gilbert, who resides at the
corner of 22d Street, and Avenue ~,
Galveston, Texas, had severe expert
ence with this dreadful disease, and
under date of April 5th, 1896, writes:
"Several years ago was so unfortu-
nate as to contract contagious blood
poison, and was under treatment of the
best physicians continuously for four
years. As soon as l discovered that had
the disease, hastened to place myself
under the care Of one of the foremost
doctors in my State, and took his
treatment faithfully for several months.
It was very short time after he pro-
nounced me we'll, that the disease broke
out afresh. and I was in far worse con-
dition that at first, Large Jumps formed

Excellent and Valuable.

The Argus is in receipt of the souvenir
booklet issued by the NEW MEXICAN
Printing company captioned, "Sketches,
Thirty-second Legislative Assembly of
New Mexico" 1t contains portraits and
biographical sketches of every member
1t is a most excellent and valuable record
of the personnel of the but recently ad-
journed session, and is fitting and con-
venient way to preserve the individuality
of New Mexioo's prominent men. Typo
graphically, the work is of the best. The
NEW MEXICAN is resourceful in ideas
which rebound to the progressiveness OF
that journal, and the issuance of the pres
ent sketches is but along the line In
which it is accustomed to move.-Eddy

on my neck, my throat was filled with
sores, and horrible ulcer broke out on
my jaw. After being treated again with
no success, I became disguised and
changed doctors. was again given
the usual treatment of mercury, and
took enough to kill an ordinary man.
OF course, was pronounced cured half
a dozen times, the disease returning
each time, until my physician finally
admitted that he could do me no good.
I am sure that no one was ever
in worse fix than I-my hair had
fallen by the handful, my feet were so
swollen that could scarcely work, and
1 was in sad plight.
~ had seen S. S. S. advertised as q
cure for this disease, and determined to
try it, and before I had taken one bottle
1 felt much better. I continued to take
the remedy, and dozen bottles cured
me completely, SO that for five years I
have had no sign of the terrible disease.
S. s. S. is the greatest blood remedy of
the age, and is truly God-send to those
afflicted with contagious blood poison"
For fifty years S. SIS. has been curing
this terrible disease, even after all other
treatment failed. It is guaranteed

antitrust law ought to be excluded in its
application to railroads. This is quite
natural as Mr.. Olews is heavily interested
IN railway securities. The other mon
opolists of the country might with equal
reason offer argument against Its appli-
cation to the various lines of business in
which they happened to be engaged. No
doubt Mr. Rockefeller thinks that his oil
industry ought to be excluded from re-
strictive legislation also.
