THE MESSiGE.

The annual message of the
President Of the United States is
u document that is always look
ed forward TO with a great deal
of anxiety as it generally forms
the nucleus Of legislation for the
session OF congress following it.
The message just sent TO con.
gress by President Mckinley
has none of the sensationalism
about ii that some such docu-
ments have had in the past, such
for instance Us the message of
President Cleveland when he de-
voted all ~ his time on one sub
ject, yet il is q very important
and creditable paper. Its
whole tenor reflects that eau.
tiousness that has characterized
all Of the Presidents career
He believes in taking one step
at n time and not confusing mat
tiers by attempting a second step
before the first one has been
completed. His utterances upon
the currency, no doubt, fall short
of the expectations of many but
they are emminently wise
They seek to prevent a re
currence Of past disasters while
permanent remedy is being
prepared The president advo

cause Of the present trouble by |
re issuing the greenbacks only |
in exchange for gold. He also |
clings TO the hope that sooner or |
later bimetaIlism will win out. |
although the efforts made |
during the past year failed
His reference to the financial |
plan proposed by Secretary Gage
is indicative Of tho fact that he
considers reforms in the currcn
cy necessary
The next important subject
discussed is the Cuban question
and ia The handling Of the qucs-
ton he has shown the wisdom
OF a conservative position His
utterances may be- disappointing
TO many Of the sympathetic
friends of Cuba but ihcpresident
evidently believes that the COY
ernment cannot be run on a sym
pathetic basis any more than can

S0ME REAS0NS WHY

/ Our contemporary across I'M

something about the position We
took in the game warden matter
last week and put his foo
in it at the out set by ad
hitting that il did not know
what it was talking about
Now in order that our esteemed
contemporary may know why
we spoke as we did we will OK.
plain our position in the matter.
We take exception to the state
ment that the game laws. as they
now stand. are all right Far
from il they are not only
unjust but they are frothy
three quarters froth, effer.
vescod from the desire Of a
few politicians to make show
regardless OF the utility of the
thing or the merits OF the
case As one instance we
cite the Bauman case in Crys.
tai Falls where a poor man went
out near his homestead, and
shot a partridge for his Thanks
giving dinner. The man was
arrested brought to Crystal
Falls and bound over to thenext
team Of the circuit court He
must pay a fine and costs a.
mounting TO about fifty dollars.
The prosecuting attorney and
justice have no discretion in the
matter and the best that the
Judge can do for him is 10 fine
him ten dollars and costs. This
man is not a law breaker. He
was ignorant of any offence when
he shot the bird and all the die
tates OF common sense and jus
ticc would say that the man
would have been taught a sulh- |
cient lesson had the law allowed !
.he justice to fine him q dollar !
Or SO and let him go We believe |
hat the legislature made a mis-
AXE when il took such cases
rom the Justices and threw them
nto the circuit court and the
mistake ought TO be corrected.
The trainers of the law say that
hey couldn't secure enough
convictions in the Justice court
md SO The matter is brought i'm
o tho higher court, They did

asses because there should be

| MORE TROUBLE FOR HUNTINGTON.
Within the last few days a new
feature has been added to the complex
litigation now claiming the attention
of Coils P. Huntington as a result of
the Houston and Texas Central rail-
road REORGANIZATION. A disgruntled
stockholder named McArd1e has
brought an action in the supreme court
of this county to wrest $50, 600, 600
| worth of Texas real estate from Mr.
Huntington and his associates in this
reorganization. The property includes
100000 acres of land now held by
President Olcott, of the Central Trust
company, in trust for the reor9anized
| Houston and Texas Central Railroad
company.
The Pintsch light is now used by
railroads the world over, and at pres
ent there are over $1,000 cars equipped
with the system in this country and
abroad. In order to fully supply the
| large number of cars with gas, over
| ration in various parts of the country,
extending from the Atlantic to the
Pacific oceans, and from the lakes to
the gulf, and new plants are being con-
structed as occasion requires.
According to the Trinidad Chronicle,
B. X. Jones, an Atchison brakeman
between La Junta and Ration, was at
tackled with delirium tremens, the
other day. The train crew became
frightened and telegraphed to Trinidad
for the authorities to arrest the man,
and Marshal Dunning and Policeman
Martin lodged him in the Jail up there,
where he is under medical treatment.
Complaints from stockholders have
led the Western railroad of France to
publish some curious facts about free
passes given to the press. Passes were
issued in 1896, which, if paid for, would
have added to the receipts OF the COM
pany 333 COO francs: to counterbalauce
this the newspapers printed free ad-
vertisements for the railroad, which
would have cost it /, $40, 900 francs.
Electricity has been applied, by the
third rail system, to the steam railroad
between Hartford and New Britain,
Conn, and passenger service will be-
early and late at intervals of twenty
minutes. and the fare is placed at 1Oc.,
reduction from 23c. The distance is
ten miles, and no intermediate stops
will be made.
1t is expected that new time card
will go into effect on the Santa Fe
railroad on Thursday, May %. 1t is
reported that a material change will
be made in the train service at that
time, the flyer going off the road and
two new daily trains added. thus Civ
ing much better service to the travel
ing public.
The recent order for over 81, 900 900
worth OF steel rails given to the Car
negle company by the Canadian Paci-
tic is OF more Importance than is mere
ly signitied by the amount. It is the

magnitude made by the company.

Today.

What the Firemen did in Thei + Meeting
Today.
The prade and concert and ball last
night were marked and successful
features of the convention season, and
drew out several thousand people. A
wind had sprung up early in the even
ing which threatened to mar the festi-
vities. but it died down ana it was per-
fectly calm after dark.
The bicycle parade was success
albeit there were hardly fifty wheels
in line. However, there were decor
alton in many ways, especiallyein the
way of lantern decorations which We're
decidedly unique and attractive. The
line of march was through the princi-
pal streets past the court house, up
Magoffin and down Myrtle avenues,
and back to the Sheldon block where
the parade terminated. The "Merry
Cyclers" executed numerous fancy fig
ures and mauouvres during the parade,
and the movements of the lanterns in
and out made one of the prettiest
sights imaginable.
The concert in front of the com
house was a fine one. The Fort Bliss
band was stationed on the veranda in
front of the county assessors office
and for two hours favored a large au-
dience with select program. This
included the overture of Morning,
Noon and Night, by Suppe, Visions of
Paradise, King Cotton March. Parson
Johnson's Chicken Brigade, and
The thoughtful committee had
placed the court room seats out on the
three northern approach walks so that
many people were able to sit down in
