Speaker peaks
His Opinion.
The Many Good Laws Enacted by the Legislature Which Will Meet with
the Unqualified Approval Of the People.

Major Maximiliano Luna, speaker of
the house of representatives, is justly
elated over the superb work done by
both branches of the Legislature during
the session just closed. The major is
fully ware that many laws were enact
ed of great importance and benefit to
the masses, and that the best interests
of the taxpayers We're fully subserved.
To The New Mexican representative he
said:
In the first place, there is no doubt
in my mind but what the course of the
SD legislative assembly was marked by
the unanimous desire on the part of all
of it's members to do the very best that
they could in the short time allotted to
them by law. The greatest good feeling
Santa Fe new Mexican. [volume] (Santa Fe, N.M.) 1898-1951, 1899-03-22

prevailed throughout the session, and
there was never at any time any polit-
ical division. In reference to the minor
ity of the house of representatives, L
voiced the unanimous sentiment of the
majority in saying that they deserved
and fully obtained our unqualified re-
spect for their gentlemanly conduct
throughout the session. | do not think
that | eXaggerate in stating that the
same sentiment is entertained by the
minority for the majority. OF course,
differences arose, but they We're not po-
litical differences, and party lines We're
not drawn on any question that | can
now recall, and, Furthermore, the differ
ences We're honest differences.
I'm my humble opinion, and so far as
I am able to judge, no vicious legisla-
ton was enacted. We have been criti-
cised in some quarters on account of
raising the salaries of different county
officials, but my one acquainted with
the history of the 32d legislative assem-
bly, must certainly realize that the bill
providing for cutting down salaries at
that time was a drastic. vicious piece of
legislation, and radical in the extreme,
as was admitted by all parties in the
present assembly. I am confident in the
assertion that, if the matter were put to
the test, that the very men who criticise
us most would be the last ones to accept
the offices at the rate fixed by the for
mer Legislature.

If the invention of the destructive
machinery of war continues with the
present rapidity of development the
time will not be far distant when war
among civilized nations will cease be-
cause Of the terrible destructiveness
and humiliation powers of the machin-
cry of war. The latest instance of what
is in progress at present is a new 1S-inch
gun; the war department is at work up
on, which, it is claimed, will throw a
gun-cotton shell nine miles without diff
ticulty, and at thai distance destroy the
greatest ~battle-ship a1oat. This will
make it impossible for battle-ships to
attack seacoaSt cities where this MUIR
derous weapon is mounted. The expert
made so far with the gun are said
to be wonderful,

There seems to be another rod in
pickle for Commissary General Eagan,
and a Washington correspondent as
serts that he will yet be compelled to
face another court-martial in order to
explain more fully his conduct in the
purchase of beef. 1t is alleged that a
contractor sought to sell the govern
ment army beef on the hoof for delivery
in Cuba and Puerto Rico, when Eagan
shut him off by saying that he had to
give the contract to a western firm, the
same being a big packing concern. The
friends of General Miles are well salts
fled with the evidence being offered be-
fore the commission of inquiry, and
claim that all the general has charged
has been established.

There are over 100, 900 residents at
penitentiaries and jails in the United
States who are being governed without
their consent. There is a choice variety
of anarchists, nihilists, communists, So
cialists and woman agitators found
from Cape Cod bay to Puget sound who
are not being asked about their consent
when it comes to administering the law.
There are 5000, 900 Democrats, all the
way from Texas to Maine, without
whose consent one William Mckinley
is president of the nation. There are
LOCO, 900 children in our schools, the
greater number without their consent,
but by compulsion of their parents. The
government with the consent Of the
governed platform of the Democrats
is. therefore, very inclusive, and if APP
piled without distinction, Partially or
reason, would throw this country into
the hands of anarchy and barbarism.

Relative to other legislation, if l
We're to mention all of the measures
passed that meet with my approval and
endorsement l would be forced to give
you a complete list of the new laws
added to the statutes. Perhaps the
most important measures We're the
Duncan bill for remodeling taxation,
BurSum revenue and deficit bills, and,
above all, the bill providing for the Sc
%gregation and disposition of public
lands under the Ferguson act. The pub
lie is already quite we'll acquainted with
the provisions of the first mentioned
bills, but as to the last named I desire
to say hat ever the most vivid mag
ination would fail to overestimate the
amount of good to be derived from the
Santa Fe new Mexican. [volume] (Santa Fe, N.M.) 1898-1951, 1899-03-22

successful carrying out of the plan as
provided by that measure. 1t gives evil
dence that the people of New Mexico
are on the alert and ready to avail
themselves of the magnificent gift of
congress. AS to the results, | venture
the prediction that within a short time,
and without any aid whatsoever from
the taxpayers, our educational institu-
lions will be more than supported from
the income derived from these lands,
and will be placed IN a par with similar
institutions of any other state or terri
tory in the Union.
In conclusion, 1 desire to thank the
press of New Mexico for it's uniform ap-
probation of the labors of the legisla-
ture.'
Major Luna is certainly in a position
to know whereof he speaks, for no
member of the assembly kept closer
watch of the measures introduced or
worked more faithfully and ardently in
behalf of the best interests of the grand
old party. The taxpayers. of New Mex
leo will certainly remember this valiant
young warrior, who fought so gallantly
in the legislative halls in behalf of their
interests and of the sublime principle of
clean and concise republicanism. May
his footsteps ever continue to echo in
places where the public welfare is at
stake.

Aguinaldo, the rebel with the gold
whistle, is treating his "peace-at-any-
price" advisers in a very summary
manner He simply orders them decapi-
tated. The 'peace-at-any-price" pa
triots should sing a TIE Deum because
Aguinaldo is not dictator of the United
States. If he were our friend Colonel
William Jennings Bryan n his cul
tured adherents in Boston would by this
time have an uncanny feeling in the re-
gion of the medulla oblongata.
