THE El Paso Times sill has the
idea that II is the oil inspection law
which forces the New Mexico citizens
20 pay more for kerosene than do the
users Of this article in FL Paso. Now
II the Times will explain why it was
that for Il long time previous TO the
passage of this law the New Mexicans
had to pay much more for oil than did
che El Pasoans 1t may be able to CON
vince It's readers that IL has got hold
OF the right handle. People who
bought oil in New Mexico a few years
ago know that then, as now, we had
- pay a big price for it, and they
know that whenever they tried to buy
in III Paso the freight rates were SO
manipulated that 5hey could not buy
at an advantage; they know that
practically all the oil marketed in
New Mexico is handled by the Conti-
MENTAL oil company, and that the oil
marketed in El Paso is handled by
the Waters Pierce company, aud they
know that these Two companies are
but another name for the Standard
oh company; they know that at
special times when the Waters Pierce
company was having fights on its
hands, and the freight rates could not
cover the difference between the New
Mexico price and the lei Paso price
that the Waters Pierce company
would refuse 10 sell 60 New Mexico
dealers; they know that the Standard
oil company and our "Uucle Coils"
have always stood in together, and
they had TO suffer; they know that
they will, IN all probability, continue
TO do so; they know that when it was
proposed TO pass this law through the
legislature the Coutipenta oil company
had It's agents at Santa Fe lobbying
against ITS passage; they know that
before the passage of this law IL was
not az infrequenL thing TO have poor
oil delivered, and they know that In
this section OF the territory there has
been but one batch Of poor oil de-
liyered since this law went into effect;
they know that the oil used Is safe,
and a great many OF the practical men
In the territory are satisfied 10 pay an
advance OF o cent a gallon ia order
20 have safe oil; they know that the
oil inspector travels 10 the uttermOst
part OF the territory when called on TO
inspect oil, they have seen him In
Lordsburg, inspecting oil shipped In
from California, and they are Informed
by the users of this oil that the in

THE SILVER ISSUE.

THE SILVER ISSUE.
II our free silver contemporaries viii
only be frank with themselves they will
have no difficulty in understanding what
their opponents mean when they say
FREQ silver is dead. They do not mean
20 say that there are not people I'm this
country, and many OF them. who still ad-
vocato what they call bimetallism il Is
not meant that tho Democratic party as
an organization has abandoned ftco sill
yer. for almost all of the State c0nvcn-
tons that have been held of late nave
passed the usual resolution reanrmins
the Chicago platform. But that the peo-
pie Of this country will ever again seri-
ously consider tho proposition 10 &C.
nounce the gold standard and to adopt
the reckless experiment Of free and un-
limited and Independent coinage of h.l-
yer is clearly an absurdlty. No man be-
lieves for one moment that II an election
were held tomorrow on this subject
free silver would begin to pol the vote
that it did in 1896
The only argument In favor OF free
silver is that the country cannot be
prosperous without it. We have just
passed through season OF great busi-
ness depression. reaching its culmina-
ton in the year 1896. and the condition
Of the people was 80 distressing that
they were willing to resort TO any sort
Of expedient that promised relief, holding,
os thousands Of them did. that tho situa-
ton could not DO worse, that the gold
standard people promised absolutely no
relief. while the free silver people prom
ised a general revival Of business II they
could get into power and increase tho
amount Of money IN circulation.
But It has been proven beyond a per-
adventure that there can be. that there
will be- nay, that there IS. prosperity
under the gold standard, and many OF
those free silver papers which two years
ago were the greatest calamity howlers
are now the greatest prosperity shouters
in the country. and are telling tho people
that the day Of adversely IS past and
that the country is now on the eve OF the
greatest prosperity It has ever known
We heartily concur in that sentiment
in that belief. We have faith AS we have
had from the beginning in the wonder
ful resources of this country. and we
have believed all the time that the only
