Freedom Not the Cause.

President Winston, of the Texas State
University, recently made a speech in
regard to the record of crimes in the
United States, which has attracted
much attention, because of the COM
parison made between the morals of the
negroes and the whites. He comes to
the conclusion that according to statis-
tics, there is considerably more crimi-
nality among the negroes than among
the white population, and the conclu.
sion which some people seem inclined to
draw from this is that freedom has not
done the negro much good. But statis-
tics are curious things, and they a be
made to lie with an ease and celebrity
which would surprise their best friends.
There are some other things to be taken
into account here besides freedom.
One is the convict lease system, which
prevails in many of the southern states.
Undsis this system during the last 30
years, for Instance three negro boys,
ono of them II years old, were SEN
iteneed to work in the coal mines,
underground. during the remain
der OF their lives. Their crime was
settling fire to an alley building, the

THE Socoorro Advertiser has this to
say on the burning question of the col
lection of taxes for the support of the
territorial. county and municipal gov
ernments:
The NEW MEXICAN very properly
urges the collection of the taxes levied
for the maintenance of the territorial
and county government, but probably
overlooks the fact that the largest pro-
portion of the uncollected taxes is due
from the owners of land grants, who are
unusually confirmed tax dodgers, and
that under the present law it is very
difficult to enforce the collection. The
way to enforce the collection of taxes
against the big grant holders is to enact
u law enabling the counties to cut the
grants into small tracts and sell sutti-
cient to satisfy the taxes.
The Advertiser does not sug-
gest the proper remedy as to the collection
of taxes due on land grants. No law OF
the kind as suggested is necessary. The
present law is strong enough and good
enough if enforced. Land grants can
not run away and taxes due on them can
easily be collected, If collectors and
boards Of county commissioners will but
do their duty.

small boy being detailed 10 watch for
policemen at,the entrance To the alley.
This case was brought into prominence
not long ago by the fact that the Young
est of the boys received a pardon for
good conduct, after serving - years.
during which time he never saw a ray
of light. When he returned to the up
per air he had forgotten how to talk
ANYTHING but the peculiar gibberish of
the mines. The other boys had died.
This may have been an extreme case.
but a case considerably short of the en-
treme would result in the total de-
moralization of the average boy, white
or black. The negro boy, when serving
"a jail sentence, is brought into assoc
citation with the most depraved and
vicious white men, and when he is let
out he is in a fair way to become ii
habitual criminal.
Another cause of great difference in
the moral bearings of the two races is
the inadequate accommodations of the
prisons and jails in some of the south
ern states resulting in young and old
criminals being herded together, al
though there is here and there Il reform
school for white boys, the reform school
for negro boys is almost an unknown
institution. Some of these prisons and
jails are academies of crime, and the
petty criminal confined in them for a
year or two becomes a halttual criminal
when he is let out. Not very long ago,
in a Washington court, a negro was
sent to the penitentiary for two years
on a charge of stabbing another negro.
Two days later a white man, arrested
on an almost precisely similar charge,
was fined $50. 1t would be idle to say
that white juries are invariably preju-
diced against negro criminals, but that
there is a certain amount of prejudice
which increases the negro population
of the jails and penitentiaries com
pared with the white population, il
would be equally idle to deny. And
anybody who has devoted a little time
to the study of human nature knows
that II man has two or three times AZ
good a chance to keep out of prison |.
he has never been there, as he ha.
after even ii short term for a %tritiins
offensc inside the walls of a Jail. These
things may have something to do will
the statistics which Mr.. Winston, o.
Texas, quotes with such remarkable
effect.

new MEXICO COMMISSIONERS
DELEGATION TO LOOK OVER THE
GROUNDS.
L. Bradford Prince Talks About the Re-
sources and Plans of the Territory for
a General Exhibit.
Omaha Bee.)

Ex-Governor l.. Bradford Prince of
Santa Fe. N. NJ. vice president of the
exposition for that state and a member
of the New Mexico exposition commits
sion, arrived in the city this morning as
the advance guard of Il committee dele
gated to come to Omaha and make az
engagements for space for an exhibit OF
the resources of that territory. The
other two members of the committee,
Major w. Fl. II. Llewellyn and j. j.
LeeSon. are expected to arrive in a few
days.
Governor Prince is IA most enthusiastic
supporter of the exposition and says he
hopes to- have his section represented in
Il manner commensurate with it's resOur-
ces. "We regard this exposition as the
opportunity of a lifetime for Il terri
tory, said he in a conversation this
morning. at is to be held in the very
heart of the section of country from
which we hope to draw Il large popula-
ton and we believe we can derive more
benefit from participation in this ex-'
position than from any exposition that
has Deen nelu III Jle country. Our ley
stature made but a small appropriation,
only 81, 300, and we will endeavor to
supplement this by private contribu-
tions, to enable "A good showing to be
made.
"We will make ii good showing on
agricultural products and will probably
surprise some people who have not
looked into II resources. At Chicago
we took the first prize in competition
with the world on wheat and were
awarded the prize for the best oats in
competition with all sections in Amer
lea. Horticulture is our strongest point,
however. We raise all the temperate
zone fruits, from apricots and plums to
winter apples. We will also make a
fine showing Oh sugar beets. l realize
that Nebraska is a sugar producing
state, but when / say that our bees
grade very high | am prepared to pro-
duce the proofs. On account of the
dryness of our climate and the amount
of sunshine our beets grade % per cent,
which is a very high percentage.
In minerals WI will make a fine
showing with the specimens from our
turqnois mines, the only ones in the
United States, and tho finest mines in
the world. We will also show gold, sill
yer, copper and lead and other CONNER
cial ores"

Prosperity Will Continue.

The business interests of the country
will not be troubled with unsettling
legislation regarding the currency dur
ing the present year, and there is that
much to be thankful to congress for.
The senate, by a vote of Al yeas to 25
nays, decided to take up the Teller res
olution. and next Thursday is the day
fixed upon for the final vote upon the
measure in that body. The resolution
is nothing new, being an exact copy of
the Stanley Matthews resolution which
passed both houses in 1878, and is there
fore the law of the land, without further
action. 1t provides that the govern
ment can pay it's debts in gold or silver
at It's option. On Saturday an amend
ment was offered. which reads: And
it is the duty of the United States gov
eminent under the existing laws to
maintain the parity in value of its gold
and silver money, so that a dollar of one
metal shall for all monetary purposes
be equal in value to a dollar of the other
metal The amendment will doubtless
be adopted. and the resolution as
amended will pass the senate. Its
force and effect will go no further.
The house will not pass it, and the
much talked about financial row in
congress will fail of accomplishment.
True. the senators and congressman
will be placed on record" but that
amounts to nothing; and will be forgot
ten in less than two months.
On the other hand, any measure mod
eled upon the plan Mr.. Gage has worked
out for the reform of the currency,
which may pass the house, and it is
highly improbable that an act of that
kind can succeed in that body, will meet
its death in the senate. Thus it APP
pears that the predictions made at the
opening of the second session of the
Fifty-tifth congress, that NJ legislation
on the currency question can be accom-
plished. will be fulfilled. Under exist
ing conditions it is better so. The gov
eminent is maintaining the parity of
gold and silver coin, the purchasing
power of the n being equal to that of
the other, and trade conditions will snf-
fer no setback from disastrous attempts
to change monetary standards. OF
course this will not please the free silver
men, neither will it suit the purposes Of
the so-called gold bugs, but it will prove
satisfactory to the great masses of the
people, and that after all Is the aim and
object of a republican form of govern
ment.
With the tariff and monetary systems
settled for three years to come, the bust
ness interests of the country will pros
per. Capitalists will have no fear Of
uncertainties; promoters and business
men will know on what ground they
stand, and the healthy prosperity which
began last summer will continue. In
the meantime the battle between the
white and yellow metals will continue,
not only in this country, but the world
over, and the laws Of supply and demand
will provide a solution of the money
question.
