age of the indicator, and the exper.
fence of the editor, makes this de.

the facts: 1--WE stated that leaving
out the colored people the
democrats have a majority OF the
white voters of the county. We
based our statement upon statistics.
Take the registered vote OF the
county. In the last Presidential
election, when party lines were as
closely drawn as ever before, we sup
pose, Mckinley got 1926 votes,
Bryan got 1852 votes. McKinley's
majority 943. There are 1,O08 negro
votes. Take off the negro vote from
McKinley's majority, and you can
see how it stands. Mckinley would
have lacked 155 votes of CARRYING
the county. There were 235 votes
thrown out. Palmer received 8, ard
lowering 8. Not one of this seven.
teen were colored voters, we don't
suppose. or the 235 thrown out ut

So this being true the facts will not
be altered. However, count two.

colored, and count them for McKin.

into error and Misrepresentation. He
makes assertions that he cannot sustain
and asserts as facts, things that are not
true. When did the gentleman become
SO well informed that he feels authorized

that Col. Pendleton's opportunities
for knowing all the facts as to the
use Of money in elections i'm both
parties are superior to ours, as he
has had considerable experince
with both parties. Two years and
better ago, our statement that the
Republicans used money i'm the
"Ninth distsict and in Tazewell

have been cheercd by him with
mighty voice. There are good
people in the Ninth district, who
have heard him mako this
charge when he was cham.

Buchanan and Col. III. G. Morrison.
But it may be that new light has
come, and we are all wrong in our
statement, that money controls
the Heating vote of Tazewell, and
II new light has come let us have
it. The indicator, in n plain,
manly way, admits the charge to
be true. Who is correct, the Vim

for many years, while the editor of
the Republican is something of a

The editor says that the facts
show that "the Republicans of
Tazewell have large majority of
the white vote, and mentions

he not mention this, and the Clear

APPLES IN NEW MEXICO.

The crop report for November, issued
by the United states department of agri-
culture, contains some statistics regard
ing the apple crop of the country which
cannot fail to impress the orchardist
with the superiority of New Mexico over
any other state or territory in the Union
as an apple producing country.
The great apple state of the extreme
east is New York, and New York apples
are noted the whole country over for
their excellent quality and flavor. But
80 far as quality goes, the palm must
be awarded to the apples raised in this
territory. The statistics published in the
report mentioned show that the yield of
the past year, as compared with full
crop, is only 35 per cent; in New Mexico
the yield as compared with full crop,
for the same reason, was lib per cent.
In Illinois the yield was SO per cent. Mis-
souri,, Sc per cent; Michigan, 10 per cent;
Colorado, 81 per cent; California, 10C per
cent.
To make long story short, New Mex
leo leads the procession in the production
of the fruit, both in quantity and quality.
The territory also leads in the per cent
of production in pears. There can be
said but very little more in regard to New
Mexico as fruit section. The high alti'
tude of the most of the territory renders
dangers from insect pests less than in
other sections, while the irrigation sys-
tenn insures full crop or more every
year. In this connection, it can also be
said that there are thousands O. acres of
land suitable to fruit raising that only
need water placed upon them to make the
growing CT fruit of all kinds profitable
and certain. New Mexico is rapidly
coming to the front as an horticultural
country and the day is not far distant
when these lands will be valuable.

alton on Cuban affairs, which have long
been serious source of disquiet, was
eminently satisfactorily to men of re-
sponsibility and thought. On the cur
rency question he takes the side of pro-
gressive reform, and his whole message,
if open to criticism at certain points,
breathes the spirit of peace and con-
ciliation. What is equally important,
congress- is in less irritable mood than
formerly; and is likely to give more at
tention to pressing home questions than
to disquieting international affairs. The
presidential election is behind us, and
the tariff question has been settled; 80
there is, happily, less occasion for bonn
lltioal effect than year ago. Currency,
bankruptcy and railroad legislation are
likely to occupy more effective attention
than Cuba or Hawaii; for which, if re-
suits are accomplished, the nation will
devoutly return thanks. The promised
freedom from disturbing political agita'

FIX Governor Prince is in receipt of
etter from President Wattles, OF the
Transmlssissippi exposition, giving as.
surances that New Mexico will be given
all the space necessary in which to make
a creditable display at the exposition
next year.
Acting upon these assurances ex Gov
ernor Prince has called meeting of the
exposition commission for December Il,
to be held in Albuquerque, at which time
and place committees for the different
counties will be appointed, and active
preparations for sending fine exhibit
to Omaha will begin. 1t is to be hoped
tina. every county in the territory will
take an interest in this matter and aid
the members of the commission in every
way possible. The exposition opens on
May l, 1898, and it is desired to haye the
greater part of the display installed on
that date. To do that no time can be
lost in determining the extent and nature
of the exhibit, and preparing ii for ship
ment.
