Admiral Camara's feet are provided
with a very mysterious, but wonderful
and fearful explosive, that will blow
American armor clads into smithereens,

M0rm0nism in New Mexico.

Recently, in a lecture delivered before
the Congregational Home Missionary
society at its annual meeting in Cleveland,
O., Eugene Young a grandson of Brigham
Young, declared that the conflict with
Mormonism in this county, in place of
being ended by the suppression of
polygamy, had really only begun.
Polygamy, he declared, was the least
consequential feature of M%ormonism;
the real danger of the institution lies in
the political ambition of the leaders OF
Latter Day Saints, which is, he says, las
broad as the world, and as deep as sim
pie faith ITSELF"
Mr.. Young briefly sketched the
growth of the Mormon church in political
power, pointing out that the two United
States senators from Utah were Nor
mons, and hat in that state all elections
were determined, not by votes, but by
the dictation of the leaders of the
church, and further said: "Already
Wyoming politicians have found it con-
venient at times to call for the arbitra-
ment of the church in senatorial con-
tests. Colorado is feeling the first faint
STRINGS of the new force. Arizona and
New Mexico = future states - have
learned to respect" the power of the
great Mormon hierarchy. Mr.. Young,
by virtue of being the grandson of tt.
| greatest of Mormon -icIs, may be
| credited vim some knowledge of the
| workings of the church, but he allows
his fears of phantoms and improbable
ties to run away with his better judg-
ment and actual knowledge of condi-
tions. No doubt the dangers which
menace the free institutions of the re-
public from the Mormon church are
more feared in the east, where distance
lends greater Importance to matters
western, than they are in the west.
In the territory of New Mexico, in
a total population of about 200, 200 there
are less than 500 Mormons, and yet Mr..
| Young asserts that the territory has
learned to respect the political power
of that number of people. That asser'
ton will prove an amusing piece OF in
formation to the politicians of the ter
| ritory. The fact of the matter is that
the Mormons in New Mexico never mix
in matters political and are never heard
of except as a %peaceable, industrious
element of the population. To imagine
that less than 500 votes scattered from
one end of the territory to the othel
could exert any influence on the cleo
ton of county officers or of members OF
the legislature demonstrates very clear
ly that Brigham's grandson is talking
| to hear the sound of his w voice, and
incidentally rake in Il few eastern dol
lars by telling a gullible people how
wicked the church of his grandfather
would be If it only had the opportunity

Senator Stewards Indignation.

Senator Stewart, of Nevada, is very
much incensed over the bond issue, re-
Gently made to provide funds for the coun-
try while in a state of war with a foreign
power, and pretends to imagine a crime
has been committed against the country
by the Republican party. In thunder
tones of denunciation he says:
The Republican party is the party of
bonds. 1t is the only party which votes
to authorize them. Every bond is a
shackle on the industries of the country
and a mortgage on future generations.
The Republican party and bonds are the
enemies of the human race.
In making that statement Mr.. Stew
art has found it convenient to forget
the actions of a Democratic president
and administration in the past few
years. In the time of peace at home
and abroad President Cleveland and his
advisors, with the full appreciation of the
Democratic party, issued 1864 200, 900 in
bonds, not to defend the country from
invasion or to wage war against a for
eign foe, but to pay the running expenses
of the government and this was made nee
essary by the failure of Democratic legis-
lation to supply the required funds for
that purpose. Knowing that by the
means of bonds issued at a low rate OF
interest this country can carry on the
wal without imposing any great burden
on the people, over and above the in
creased internal tax, Mr.. Stewart would
rather have had some manner of legis-
lation which would have arbitrarily
fixed the price of silver at $1.29 an
ounce, in face of the standing that metal
has among the nations of the world, and
thereby reduce values of all kinds of
property in the United States one-half.
The superstition that an issue of $780,
900, 600 in bonds will prove "a shackle
on the industries of the country and a
mortgage on future generations" is an
absurdity on its face. When compared
with the wealth of the United States,
5000, 600, 900 is but a drop in the bucket.
Taxes will not be increased l mill on
the 500 dollars valuation, and the tax
payers will never know bonds were is
sued in 1898, except when some blather-
skite politicians or sensational news
papers call attention to the fact for the
purpose of making questionable political
capital out Of it.
Perhaps some reason for the senator's
indignation may be found in the fact
that he has been largely interested in
the Comstock mine, one of the largest
silver properties in the world, and which
in past years made him a multi-million-
aire. He was elected to the senate from
Nevada in 1887 by the Republicans, and
reelected by the same party in 1898;
when his mining ventures failed to bring

Governor Otero has named 30 repre-
sentative citizens as delegates to the
International Mining congress to be
held in Salt Lake City next month. 1t
is to be hoped that there will be a full
attendance of miners and delegates
from New Mexico at the congress. The
mineral industry Of the territory is very
important and everything that a pos
sibly be done to foster it should be done.
1t is the aim of the congress to aid the
mineral development of the entire west.

Volunteers May Retain Their Civil
Offices.
New York journal. J

The attorney general has rendered an
opinion of great interest to state Off
cials and others who have accepted
commissions in the volunteer army. He
holds that section 2 ,222 of the Revised
Statutes, which prohibits army commits
sions. applies only to officers of the
regular army.
He is of opinion it would be unfair to
construe the statutes as affecting Off
GERS in the volunteers, because many OF
them accepted these positions believing
that the war with Spain would be OF
brief duration, and therefore preferred
not to %relinquish the compensation OF
the civil offices they held.

MOVING THE HOMES,

II am not in favor of giving up

soldiers" in speaking of the pro-
posed change of the soldiers
home from Monte Vista to tie re-
glon Of Denver. "The future of
the boys ought to be considered,
and it is absolutely necessary for
the boys to have profitable work
to do. This is necessary in order
to keep them out of mischief and
also TO assist in maintaining the
institution. We have fifteen COWS
at the home and the boys are car
rying forward nearly MI the work
of n large farm. | do rot believe
the opportunity for farm work on
such large scale exists at Monte
Vista, and | do not think it will be n
good idea to place the boys at that
distant point. Let the old soldiers
come to Denver, bnt make some
other provtion for their accommo-
tion. The boys are getting along
very well and many of them nre
developing into self-sustaining cit
lzens who will be credit to the
state. My advice is TO let well
enough alone"
From the above 1t is evident
there will be trouble in making
the proposed change. Both homes
want TO be MS near Denver as pos
s.b!e. Monte Vista, however, can
