THE action of the chief of police, In
issuing orders to the police to keep
out OF saloons, gambling houses, and
bawdy houses, unless called in on Off
cial business, and to keep sober while
on duty-even though this action was
forced upon" the chief by others and
does not proceed from his own sense OF
the fitness Of things-must commend it.
self to every decent citizen.
The actions of certain policemen
during the last few months, while they
were under the influence OF liquor,
have disgraced the whole force. In
issuing this rule It Is not intended that
all should suffer for the sins Of few,
but rather that all should behave them
selves ss becomes their office. The
citizens will uphold the mayor and the
chief for this action. Now IL the may
or would issue orders to himself to
keep away from gambling houses and
saloons perhaps his good example
might do more than official orders
to reform his subordinates.

THE action of the council in order
ing that the sidewalk on Mesa avenue
between Texas and st. Louis street be
fixed at once is in line with a sugges-
ton in this column a short time ago
that owners Of property who persistent
ly refused to repair their sidewalks
might be arrested and fined for main
tanning q public nuisance. AS the de-
linquent owners are in most cases COM
psratively large owners the multiplied
tion OF these fines would shortly prove
irksome. and the offenders would find IL
cheaper to fix their sidewalks. 1t is
to be hoped that the action OF the coun-
Gil in this case is only the beginning.
IL seems to US that 1t does not need any
special action by the council. The
street commissioner and the police
ought to be able to do the work.

A MAN named Bsrris, living near
Beaver Falls, Pa, was an ardent free
silverite during the last presidential
campaign. During a street gathering
he opened his mouth to shout little
louder for Bryan. AS he did so some
thing cracked, and he has had no voice
since. The only difference between
him and others who opened up wide to
yell for Bryan is that most Of the lat
ter were cracked already before they
came to the shouting.

The building of the new saw mill at
Alamogordo is progressing rapidly.
and the machinery is being put in place
as last as it arrives. A switch has been
unloaded directly into the building.
But few people realize the size of this

ed in the enterprise. The mill will

| lumber per hour and as it ia the inten-
ton OF the management to run it twen-
ty-two hours out of every twenty-four,
more than 100, 900 feet of lumber will
be turned out every day, All the waste
will be run through the "hog'' and
| then mixed with the saw dust and used
as fuel. A railroad is being built from
| the mill at Alamogordo to the Sacra-
mento mountains, distance of twenty
four miles, for the sole purpose of sup
plying it with logs, and thousands of
