arise from a proper tariff tax on
foreign wool. We assert our be-
lief that foreign wool is proper sub
ject of tariff taxation, and we so
interpret the following language
of the Chicago plataform: "We
hold that tariff duties should be
levied for the purpose of revenue,
such duties to be SO adjusted as to
operate equally throughout the
country and not discriminate be-
tween class or section and that tax
alton should be limited to the needs
of the government, honestly and
economically administered"
We declare that the present tar
ifi law, known as the DINGHY law,
discriminates unjustly against the
wool growers of New Mexico in
that it provides a tariff tax of 12
cents per pound upon foreign
woods which compete with woods
grown in the eastern states, nOtab
ly the state of Ohio, while the tar
iff tax upon foreign woods grown
in New Mexico is but 4 cents per
pound.
Thirl-We desire to unite in the
same organization all voters of this
territory who favor legislation by
congress abolishing the doctrine
of nonliabllity of employers for in
juries to employees occasioned by
negligence of fellow servant engag-
ed In the same common employment
and we assert our belief that it is
hopeless to expect to secure such
legislation from the territorial leg
islature so long as we have re-
publican governor.
We assert that such legislation
is demanded by every considera-
ton of humanity and justice.
Fourth--We desire also to unite
in the same organization all voters
of the territory of New Mexico
who oppose the repeal of the law
passed by the last legislature re-
ducing the compensation of. coun-
ty officers, which, by its terms is
to take effect January /, 1899,
and We hope to pledge all legisla-
tive candidates of the democratic
party against such repeal, and in
favor of such revision of the said
law as will give just compensation
to the officers of the small counties
without allowing excessive comper
sation to those of the larger coun
ties of the territory.
Fifth-We desire also to unite
in the same organization all voters
of the territory who favor the i'm
mediate admission of the territory
of New Mexico as one of the state,
of the Union, and we assert that
the republican party is responsible
for the failure of New Mexico tC
gain admission to statehood.
Sixth-We reassert the allegiance
of the democratic party of the ter
ritory of New Mexico to the prin
ciples of the democratic party o
the nation as enunciated in th,
Chicago platform in 1896.
While we make no appeal to an,
: voter TO sacrifice any principle t.
which he is committed, we yet be
; lieve that the democratic party il
the only party to whom the people
of this territory can look for th
= accomplishment of these result

staunch democrat, silver knight
and well liked throughout this coun-

heavy majority he received for his
present office over two very strong

to the interests of his county, and

Our state senator, Hon. tno. j.
Harris, left Wednesday for Denver
to lie In attendance at the session of
the State General Assembly. The
character of Senator Harris as man
of affairs, together with his many
sterling good qualities, make him
an ideal senator and prime favor
ite with the people here. While
following no one party to the ex-
tent of blind devotion, he is firm
friend of silver and of every other
measure which he believes to be to
the interest Of the people. Several
parties united to call him to his
present position. He has long been
identified with the business interests
of this county, and we look for much
good to come from his earnest sup
port of measures of direct import
ance to this county, which will come
up for consideration at this session

Although W. ]. Bryan is in many

Although w. J. Bryan is in many
ways the leader of the true demo
cratic party, he seems to be partly
on the wrong track Regarding the
Philippines, and We prefer to follow
in the lead Of that grand old states
man, the Hon. Henry NJ. Teller, in
this matter. We believe the U. s.
government should hold all terri
tory acquired by the spanish-Amer--
ican war. True it was not a war Of
expansion, but in as much as these
possessions are ours for the having,
why not keep them! It is a well
known fact that Spain has for years
maintained her government almost
entirely from the revenues obtained
from her colonial possessions. And
while 1t would require large stand
ing army to maintain order. yet
Spain has always had the same ex.
pense and with an improved govern
ment would come a great increase
In revenues. This question Of ex-
patisioA Is, SIMPLY an exact couhter-
part ofthe louisiana Purchase. All
who are familiar with history know
that the same arguments; i. G., dis
tante, expense and standing armies,
were Brought to Bear agaihSt that,
which are being Urged hgainst the
present question. fine has shown

why dot profit by Il Ia taking the

any complications which may arise,

THE FUTURE OF
THE SILVER STAR.
NOTES.

4AG Oily En- 6YAhs
The assertion that THE SILVER
STAR would soon be out of exist
ence has been given prominence by
some who, for personal reasons, de-
sired to have it quit, but it is not
going to quit and will continue to
do business at the old stand, Our
motto has always been and always
will be "the greatest good to the
greatest numbef," and, while we
believe we have done all We could
to carry out that motto, we have a
stronger belief that we can acconi-
plish more goda by following other
methods.
The results of the recent cam.
paign have made several facts plain
to those Who have cared to look.
While we have always been an ad-
mirer of the Honorable Henry NJ.
Teller and perhaps always will be,
and have founa it pleasure to fol.
low his lead, we are convinced that
SO far as the Republican party or
any branch of 1T Is concerned no
permanent relief for the distress Of
the people can be reached through
THAT channel, since it has been dem.
onstrated in this stdte that political
schemcrs can steal not only a party
emblem, but the party itselfand de-
liver the goods to the persons offer
ing the highest reward. Nearly all
Of the democratic candidates elected
in this state are known to be TRUE
silver men and the fact that the
democratic party is a true bimetallic
party has been clearly demonstrate
ed. Some of the former so-called
democratic officials Of this state have
at heart been straight republicans
and their actions have proven tho
TACT, but those recently elected show
a disposition ~ follow out demo:
cratic principles and we believe they
IRE sincere.

THE POLO GAME.

New Haven Wins the First Home
 Game After an Exciting Encounter
 A Big Crowd.
 The New Haven polo team, strength
 ened by the appearance of "Bill'' Whit
 ing in it's ranks, won the first of the
 series of home games from Tom Cot
 ters Hartford aggregation of crack
 and heavyweights last night. Long be-
 fore starting time the large rink was
 filled by most enthusiastic crowd of
 polo devotees, which augured well for
 the success of the game during the
 coming season. Cotter and his men
 were the first to appear and received q
 hearty welcome. They were followed
 closely by the home team, whom the
 crowd cheered en masse. The first
 period Of the game was very fast and
 the New Haven team showed their su-
 periority over the Hartfords in the
 manner in which they combined to-
 gether, the visitors depending more on
 the powerful driving of Cotter than on
 that of passing. Bone shone to advan-
 tag during this period and scored a I
 of the goals made-three in number.
 Leydon by fine piece of work scored the fourth goal after nearly seven min
 utes' play in the second period. After this Hartford combined better and scored four goals in rapid succession. three of which were very cleverly caged by Russell. No more scoring took place in the second period and the team started into the third with a credit of four goals each. Leydon again opened the scoring for New Ha- ven after two minutes playing time and his effort was roundly applauded. At this stage Hartford again resumed the r heavyweight tactics, Furbush being the worst of the team. His terrific drives resulted in adding two more goals to 1 Hartford's register and put them one ahead. But it was not for long, for = ter some beautiful passing by the New 1 Haven team, LeydOn beat Cusick l amidst the widest excitement. Forty l five seconds later the same player l again did the needful and the gong sounded with the entire crowd on their | feet cheering and New Haven winners l by one goal.
 The playing of Mooney Russell, Ev- erett and Cusick for Hartford is worthy
 
 1 the quartette played the game from a I scientific point of view. Their play was a decided contrast from that shown by I Cotter and Furbush. although the for mer at times showed some of his old time play in juggling the ball away | from his opponents. Regarding the home team, each and every man played | a sterling game of polo. Bone was ably backed up by Leydon in the front l line and the play of Farrell at center | could hardly have been improved upon 'Bill' Whiting made a splendid de l fense to Lations, who also put up 8 good game. The next game is on Fri l day, when the crack Providence team will appear. Summary and positions | follow:
