August for short time but after using
a few more bottles of the Remedy, she
soon got well, and her father tells me to-
day he thinks she is entirely well.

After all medicine failed, she used your
Remedy, and says she is entirely cured.

RAPAeITY.

The lower house of the New
Mexico legislature had barely per
fected its organization when
contests against three of the Demo
cratic members were acted on and
the Democrats unseated. Pablo
Truiillo Of Soeorro, ]. r. Guyer of
Union and Celso Baca Of Guada-
Iupe, Republicans, were substituted.
The Democrats turned down were
Benjamin H. Sanchez, Or, John
G. Slack and Crecenciano Gallegos.
With the unseating of these three
Democrats there is left only two
Democrats in the house, namely,
]. E. Wharton and T. D. Lieb.
There were no contests in the
upper house, aud the Republican
Albuquerque Citizen is candid
enough in explaining why. There
Is no contest in the council, it
says, the Republicans fearing no
obstruction from the two Demo

Add the two Democrats in the
council to the two in the house,
and the total population of Demo
Gratis in the thirty-third assembly is
four, showing an average Demo
cratic population throughout the
territory Of about oo.oo per square
mile.
While the g, o. p. is entitled tc
ail praise for its magnanimity in
allowing two horrid Democrats
in each body to retain their seats
it is feared that the Republican
leaders are inclined to underestimate
the power of a pair Of Democrats ir

So fer as Tx INDEx can estimate II.
the needs and wishes Of the people Of
this county for legislation at the hands
Of the thirty-third general assembly may
be summed UP as follows;
First. The repsal Of the present in.
adequate road law and tho enactment
Of a statute providing for efficient road
supervisors or overseers in each pre-
cinct, with a compensation sufficient to
secure the services OF acceptable and
intelligent persons, and n rigid penalty
for failure to devote tho amount OF
work or ito equivalent required from
each citizen for road purposes.
Second. An appropriation for the
maintenance and support Of the 0gricul-
tural experiment sub station established
at Aztec in 1893. and appropriations for
which have been withdrawn by the
general government
Third. An Increase in the salaries Of
certain county officials reduced by the
lsat legislature, to = reasonable and
sensible amount that will justify eomps-
tent and upright men in their acceptance
Of the duties and responsibilities Of the
said offices. The two eents-a- mile allow
ancs to the sheriff for riding the county
in quest of witnesses and jurors is one
of the cases in point.
Fourth. The arranging Of a better
and fairer system Of lsvying and collect
ing taxes, to the end that the heavy
property owners in the great shsep and
cattle growing counties shall pay theiI
just proportion Of the tax burdens Of the
territory.
We de not contend that these ideaI
are acceptable to or their enactment de
sired by all the people of the county, mol
that they include all the reforms or new
statutes that could be desired. bui
we believe the vast majority will endors'
every proposition herein set forth. Tht
prospects for these projects Of Legislation
are not bad. it is yet too early in th'
session for a definite prediction as t
the results, but some Of the mensuro
above outlined are already receiving ia
vorable consideration from the Law
makers and the territorial press,
