A Good Time to Refund Bonds.

Counties that need to borrow money
on bonds, and which have the legal
right, can never do so upon more liberal
terms than at present. The financial
standing of New Mexico is first class.
Bonds issued when interest rates were
high and the territory's credit weak can
now be refunded, where the time limit
permits, at low rates of interest. Every
county and town that has bonds out
| standing, with an option to pay them
now, should at once make arrangements
for refunding. They may now borrow
from Peter to pay Paul without robbine
| either, and can save money by swap,
ping. Every bond sold by city, county
or territory since the present admins
tration came into office has brough
more than par, but prior to the change
from Democratic to Republican man
agement, and from a Democratic to {
Republican majority in the territory
things were going from bad to worse
and the territory had to give a discoun
to get brokers and capitalists to accep
bonds for capitol building and othe,
purposes.

Comes Of the Top Perch.

All Democrats look alike to Colonel
Bryan now. A few weeks ago he could
not recognize a Democrat who voted
against him, and announced that none
such should help to make the party
platform next year. He even refused to
attend a banquet which was gotten up
by a gold-bug Democrat in New York,
on the ground that such Democrat was
without the pale of forgiveness. But as
the campaign approaches the candidate
begins to realize that the high and
lofty attitude will not go down with the
| party. SO he has changed front, and,
| with his eagle eye for crumbs upon the
electoral loaf of Kentucky, he has ad-
vised Democrats of that state that they
| should not hold it against Goebel that
he is the nominee Of those who went
back upon the party in 1896.
Here is the Bryan permission for the
stray lambs to return: 1--WE desire that
| all gold Democrats shall return provid-
ed they accept the Democratic platform
and support candidates pledged to thai
platform. We desire to have all golC
newspapers return to the party If we
can secure their return without surren.
dering party principles. 1t is not the
policy of the party to drive people away
from it, but rather to invite people into

safe, and the people and country unfit
to have the privilege of statehood. New
Mexico, in her worst days of Indians
and outlaws, never had hundreds of
men cunning for n another, as is the
case in Clay county, Kentucky. 1t is
not necessary when trials are in prog
ress here to have troops attend to pro-
tect the court and keep armed forces
from coming together. Riots are I'M
known to New Mexico, and there are
fewer serious crimes committed here
than in some cities having a population
as great as that of the territory. Take
San Francisco, for instance, which PROB
ably has about the same number of in
habitants as New Mexico, and it would
most likely be found that more persons
are killed there in a year than in New
Mexico. In proportion to population
the same ratio may exist between New
Mexico and New York City, as to homi-
cides.
The courts of this territory enforce
laws against crimes as effectively as in
any state in the Union. The detectives
of the great cities are not surer in APP
| pretending and arresting murderers
| than are the officers of New Mexico. Tn
murder of women by drunken or jealous
/ men, so common in eastern cities, Is
| crime almost unknown in this territory
| 1t is safer for a man to travel in the
most lonesome spot in this country thar
to go alone into the alleys or dens OF
an eastern metropolis.
But because of the crimes that ar
| committed in states, the people in gen
eral are not condemned. The great ma
jority are law abiding. The same is tru'
of New Mexico. The day when outlaws
sought refuge in the west has passed
They now hide in the cities. People il
New Mexico rarely go armed, as few
feel the need of doing so.
1t is not pretended that in a popula
ton of 300, 900 people there is not tn
average number of persons disposed t
commit crime. But the average Is no
greater than in the best sections of tn

As Kiplinq Sees Americans.

Rudyard Kipling's first visit to the
United States did not bring him into
touch with the people Of the country.
But later he learned to know them bet
ter. Coming to America when the ma
tional spirit was aroused, he found the
people glowing with patriotism that APP
pealed to him. Writing of the active
sense of duty and pride Of country that
prevails in all ranks in America, in
comparison with the Indifference of av-
erage Englishmen to the true impor-
lance and greatness of their govern
ment, this greatest Of modern British
authors writes:
But the men and women set us an
example in patriotism. They believe in
their land and its future, and it's honor,
and it's glory, and they are not ashamed
to say so. From the largest to the least
runs this same proud, passionate con-
viction, to which I take off my hat and
for which I love them. An average
country as an abstraction to supply him
with policemen and fire brigades. The
cockney cad cannot understand what
the word means. The bloomin' toff he
knows, and the law, and the soldiers
that supply him with a spectacle in the
parks; but he would laugh in your face
at the notion of any duty being owed
by himself to the land. Pick an Ameri-
can of the second generation anywhere
you ple~ase--from the cab rank, the por-
ter's room or the pillow tail-'specially
the ploy tail-and that man will make
you understand in five minutes what
manner of thing his republic Is. He
might laugh at a law that didn't sui
his convenience, draw your eyeteeth ir
a bargain and applaud cuteness on the
outer verge of swindling; but yor
should hear him stand up and sing:
My country, it's Of thee,
Sweet land of liberty,
OF thee I sing.
I have heard a few thousand of then
engaged in that employment. I respec
him."

It is rumored that the Santa Fe rail-
way has secured control of the Pecos
Valley and Northeastern railway from
Pecos City to Amarillo, and will assume
charge of the property August l, and
then build from some point on the line
where it crosses the New Mexico border
to Isleta, thus securing another and
shorter and better connection with the
Santa Fe Pacific. If this m proves
true, eastern New Mexico, and, indeed,
the entire territory, will be the gamer.
The more railroads in New Mexico the
better for all concerned. The territory
cannot have too many railroads.

Judge Parker has chosen three of the
best citizens of Grant county to select
jurors for the coming term of court for
that county, and it a be foretold to a
certainty that they will make up a list
of competent persons and leave GU men
whose occupations and habits unfit
them for jury service. The old lottery
method Of drawing promiscuous names
in a box and subsequently letting OIL
GERS pick up jurors by an easy method,
often in the interest of one side or the
other interested in court proceedings,
has been greatly improved upon by the
new law. The judges are making this
a success by judicious appointments OF
commissioners who select only good ma

New Mexico Compares F~avorably.

Kentucky has been a state many dec

two where prominent citizens engage
in wars, rally their friends and employ
others by hundreds to engage in gun

going on so long hat it is considered
only a matter Of course.

In 1890 the first United States census
was taken; the cost was only $50, 900. The
last census cost the country over Sill

full growth of the population and indus
tries, convincing the world that the
United States is destined to be the

the universe. But the coming census
will show even greater things.

FAIR.

The Territorial horticultural Society
will hold a successful fair in Santa Fe
the first week in October and lasting
three days. The dates are October 4, b
and 6. Governor Prince is the president
of the society and j. D. Sena secretary.
The citizens of Santa Fe will be asked
to contribute, and a liberal pre-
MUM list will be offered. The terrific
rial capital deserves great credit for
maintaining the horticultural fair, and
the whole territory should assist this
year in making the exhibition a credit
able one. Albuquerque can be counted
upon to do it's whole duty in helping to
make the fair a success.
