Inconsistent Consistency.

What a %paradoXical conglomeration
Of political %curiosities the Democratic
party of the present time is. The
things demanded by the members of the
organization one year are vehemently
and regularity repeated the next, and
there is no suiting them, no matter
what is done. The only explanation of
the fact that free trade has been clung
to so long by the Democrats is, they
imagine if protection could be over
thrown that groceries and clothing and
house rent could be procured without
money and without price. The main
desire of the party as a whole is to Sc
cure something for half price, and for
nothing if possible.
Before wal was declared the Demo-
Gratis in congress and the Democratic
papers wanted blood equally as bad as
did Governor Waite of bloody brides
fame. and for some time they made
claims that the Democrats compelled
the administration to go to war to
avenge insults offered the nation. They
were in favor of taking everything in
sight, and more too. If it could be found.
All this happened less than six months
ago. No inc had peace come than
the whole outfit went back on every
word that had been said, and an effort
was made to make national expansion
an issue for election purposes. 1t was
declared by the previous land grabbers
that to retain the islands captured was
to invite national destruction to enter
and work havoc with the republic.
just what the next flow will be is
watched with considerable interest by
the country, with the hopes that some
question may be found that will serve
the purpose of an issue for the political
granny to keep company with until
after the election is over The expan-
sion play to the galleries was u fat fail
nre on the opening night and it had to
be abandoned.
1t requires considerable inconsistency
to be inconsistent all the time, and of
that name of consistency the Demo.
cratic party has a large stock on hand,
but at this time there seems to be moth
ing more in sight to be inconsistent
over. The old party is in a rough row
of stumps for campaign thunder and
election time is drawing neal. Friends
of the infirm will confer a favor by send
ing suggestions to Senator Jones, of
Arkansas. They are badly needed, and
that right now.

nocent and prosecuted individual. He
now explains why he resisted the Off
GERS, unto death (of one of the oi1icers)
and refuses to surrender and answer to
the charge of murder. The reason he
gives is because Sheriff Pat Carrot is an
intidcl, believing rot in christianity,
religion, nor the hereafter, that owing
to his lack of belief an oath has no
binding effect upon him, and that if he,
Lee, became CARROTS prisoner, Carrot
would in all probability murder him.
Lee promises that next January, if a
new sheriff is elected in Dona Ana
ty, he will surrender. 1t is presumed
that the new sheriff must be a christian,
and probably of the same denomination
as Lee. Lee promises to remain at
home in Dona Ana county until the
new officer takes charge of affairs.
This is a little the richest thing the
Liberal ever did run across in New Mex
leo politics.

The Poor Man in Office.

The retirement of Secretary Day from
| the cabinet for the reason, as he frank
ly states, that the salary is not large
enough to meet the expenses incident to
the position, is sufficient to put the peo-
pie of the country thinking what a
declaration of that kind really means.
Secretary Day is not the first man who
has held a position of great responsibility
in the service of the government to make
that statement, but he has the courage
to leave a place of honor rather than
to become burdened with debt, and for
that reason he has sent his resignation
to the president.
A salary OF $1,000 Il year seems to be
large enough to live upon, but the social
requirements of the position necessitate
the expenditure of large sums of money
in entertaining the representatives of
the other governments at the capital,
the maintenance of an expensive estab-
lishment, and entails many expenses
unknown to the ordinary man. Rich
men like Blaine, Olney, Sherman and
others who have been cabinet officers
have been able to live within their in
come for the eason that they could add
a large private income to the salary,
but for a man not possessed Of wealth,
to attempt to keep up with the pace set
by the fashionable society of Washing
ton city on the salary of $4,000 is i'm
possible. The natural conclusions OF
the situation, therefore, are that only rich
men can hope to hold offices which poor
men are often better qualified to fill.
There is a political party in the u
try which is constantly harping about
the power of money in politics, that a
poor man can not hold the higher Of
fees, and that an aristocracy of money,
not brains, is governing the people.
| Still, at the same time, let anyone hint
at the ACCESSIBILITY of raising salaries to
a point where a poor man can afford to
take a cabinet position, or a similar Of
fee under the government, and a howl
goes up about expenses and Doodle that
makes the mountains ring with its echo.
1t is folly to claim that q man should
have strength of character enough to
live within his means. In u position
| where the United States is represented
in the person of the secretary or min
lister or consul, the dignity and social
standing of the country must be upheld.
There seems to be only one or two
ways to arrange matters whereby a poor
man can hope to hold one of the i'm
portant positions in the government
service: either increase the salaries or
change the social customs of the day. 1t
is altogether prob able that t will be an
easier matter to accomplish the former
than it will be to bring about the latter.
1t is un-American, dangerous and mig
gardly for a nation possessed of the
wealth of the United States to debar
the talented but poor MAI from reach
ing the station in life to which he is en-
titled. because tho salarias paid alu not
sufficient for him to pay his expenses
while in office.

That Germany felt nom too friendly
toward the United States during the
wal with Spain is pretty thoroughly un-
derstood on this side of the water, and
many have been the theories offered in
explanation of the attitude of that
country. None, however, have been sat
isfactory. A gentleman who has spent
a number of years at Leipzig, in a letter
to a friend in this city, in speaking on
the subject, said: "a friend says, You
have given u military system a slap in
the face. Your raw militia has COM
pletely defeated the Spanish regulars;
we supposed you could do nothing

fact that they (the Germans) hate q re-

Whereby Mrs. Crosby Was Led to Make
II Wrong Judgment.
Mrs. Crosby was in the full tide of her
spring hous~ecloaning and had just ex-
pressed the hope that no one would call
that day when the doorbell rang and a
moment later the maid came up stairs
bringing a card said to be in"good form"
by the editor of The Ladies' Guide to Eli
quette. On the card was printed: Miss
Do Forrest"
"Miss De Forrest" said Mrs. Crosby
reflectively. 81 wonder If it cal DO ONE
one of the De Forests I met at Mrs. War
ner's party. Perhaps it Is, and such &
sight as l am to receive such swell people
as they are. Here, Jane, go down and say
that III be down in a few minutes.
Come right back and help me dress, Jane.
Dear! dear! to think that one Of the De
FORESTS should have called and found me
looking like this!"
Half an hour Of "fying around effort
made Mrs. Crosby p%resentable, and she
hurried down to the parlor, saying:
II am SO sorry to have kept you wait
ing, but l was unavoidably detained"
"That's all right, ma'am. Sorry to have
interrupted you when you were busy, but
/ am introducing e little article here I
thought you'd be sure to want, particular
ly in housecleaning timo. 1t is called the
Death Dealing Vermin Exterminator,'
and 1T Is sure death to moths, carpet bugs,
cockroanhes or any pests of that sort,

lady next door, and the lady across the
street bought a bottle, and you'll never
regret 1t If you buy a bottle. A few drops
of it sprinkled on your winter things
when you pack them away will''-
The upshot Of it all was that when Miss
De Forrest departed she left a bottle of the
death dealing compound in Mrs. Crosby's
hands while rs cents of Mrs. Crosby's
money was in Miss De Forests purse.
"And to think that l should have left
my work and dressed up in my best house
dress for this!' said Mrs. Crosby as she
climbed the stairs with Miss De Forrest
