A POPULAR HOTEL.

Councilmen Thomas Hughes, 7. A. Fini-
cal, W. E. Martin, A. B. Fall, j. D. Garcia,
enrolling and eugrossing clerk; A. B. Holt,
chief clerk.
Under the efficient management of Mr..
s. B. Shelby, this popular hostelry is en-
joying large and constantly increasing
patronage. II is sometimes said by per-
sons not thoroughly acquainted with the
facts, that the danger of fire is greater at
the Palace than at some of the smaller
hotels in the city. In this connection it
should be known that competent and
trusty watchman is on duty through the
night, making his rounds of the entire
building every hour, so that it would be
next to impossible for fire to gain head
way at anytime.

A co ERECTION.
The Grab sample Assays Are Not
Fraudulent, But Somewhat
Unfair.

To the Editor of the New Mexican:
Santa Fe, Jan. 26.-Dear Sir: In yes
terday's issue of your paper, under the
head of "Smelting LeaG Ores" l am re-
ported to have used such expressions as
''bsll-faced frauds" and fraudulent meth
ods in assaying, in reference to grading
ores; beg to say that I used no such
language, but contended the method OF
sampling foreign ores was unfair only,
and was to the hurt of domestic produc-
ers. Be kind enough to make the cor
rection; do not question the integrity
of the officers at the port of entry.
Very truly,
