The Conspiracy Cases.

The arrest OF T.. II. Bergman, late
superintendent of the penitentiary, and
his son, Henry Bergman, upon a
charge of conspiracy, was expected aft
er the previous arrest of O. l.. Merrill,
late assistant superintendent of the in
%stitution, upon a similar charge.
The New Mexican has, through Off
cial sources, long been aware that evil
dence to warrant arrests and charges
was being gathered, but for reasons of
public policy and to respect confidence
placed in it, the paper has published no
facts, except to mention the serving of
warrants. 1t vas desired not to inter-
fere with the work of the officers, nor
to iniame public opinion when an Off
cial investigation was being made.
The proceedings leading up to the
charge began with the making of a
written affidavit by an inmate of the
p~enitentiary hat various parties had
plotted to murder a number of other
citizens of prominence, and that he was
| the chosen instrument. The plot, in de-
tail, if true, was one of the most horri-
bic conspiracies of modern criminal his
tory. Therefore, investigation was be-
| gun by detectives and other officials
and continued for some months, with
the active assistance of Hon. Thomas
b. Catron, the alleged principal to the
murderous plot, who had been informed
by a convict of the revelation made to
officials.
The result was that when the self
| professed chosen instrument of death
for proposed victims ended his term OF
imprisonment, he was incarcerated in
the county Jail upon a charge of per-
jury in having made the previous writ
ten statement on oath. The prisoner
soon made a second affidavit, which led
to the arrest of persons now accused of
having conspired to have this convict
the parties whom he said engaged him
to commit murder.
The issue is now fairly made. The
whole truth and all falsehood should

charged with a conspiracy to accuse
others of intending to commit cowardly
crimes.
The interests of the public as well as
of the individuals affected are at stake
and although the charges are for judi
cial investigation now, the people have
a right to know all facts of the case.
The New Mexican will publish all OF
the developments without fear or favor
and with strict impartialityS and all ev.
idence submitted in court.

There has never been any doubt of
the sentiment of the vast majority of
the American people regarding the pol
icy of expansion. They have regarded
it as a settled fact. They have realized
that while the consequences of the war
could not betforeseen, they could not be
shirked or evaded whatever they might
be. If they were a~pathetic in going to
the record to this effect it was only be-
cause they did not deem it necessary to
do so. Comparatively speaking, the an
ti-eXpansionists, the opponents of the
policy of the government, and the re-
vilers of it at every successive step,
have been 50 small in numbers as to be
beneath contempt. But what they have
lacked in multiplicity they have made
up in noise, in venom, and in the vilest
kind of reason. They have prided
themselves on being educators of the
Masses while preaching a gospel of
despair. They have sought in every
manner of way to undermine the ad-
ministration and paralyze the patriot
ism of the nation.

Facts About Vaccination,

A modern fad, or an old prejudice
that existed when vaccination was in
augurated. has been revived by a long
period of exemption from smallpox in
most large cities of the world.
But long experience in all sections
where smallpox is indigenous or pre-
other diseases, proves that the only
safety lies in vaccination renewed ev-
cry few years. The opposition to it in
such localities exists only among such
natives as have little fear of the dis
ease and consider it only as they do any
other Illness against which they take no

Prosperity in New Mexico is attract
ing immigrants. Last week about forty
families from Indian territory ar
rived at Ration, and will reside in that
locality. There is room and work for
many more in the mountains and val
lies of the territory. Many of the Ra-
ton settlers have already found employ
ment in the lumber industry. Ration
has just decided to erect a $40, 900 school
house on a block donated by the Max
well grant company. The town now has
a population of 1000, and is growing
rapidly. Railway business there was
greatly enlarged during the last year.
The Maxwell Land Grant Company, by
advertising and enterprise, is helping
hat section. New Mexico is short on
laborers yet, and even a hobo can get
$1.50 per day if he will condescend to
work. The railway being built in Otero
county still calls for men at $1.75 per
day, and down in Grant county there is
a scarcity of laborers at mines and on
railway work.

The National Woman's Health Pro-
tective League in Cleveland has been
condemning kissing. But resolutions
passed by the women every hour in the
day would not Danish the custom. Some
form of af~fectionate greeting prevails
in all lands, and scarcely one of them
would meet the approval of American
women as a substitute for kissing.
Among the foreign customs may be
mentioned patting the arms, blowing
on the hands and rubbing noses, the
last of which is common among horses,
as well as with the Malays, Polyne-
slams and Greenlanders. Darwin ice
beheld the Malay salutation, and he
wrote of it: THE women sat crouching
with their faces turned upward. My
companion stood bowed over them, and
put his nose in a right angle against
theirs. whereupon he made a pressure
The act lasted a little longer than a
common handshake among u.s." AS
long as affection demands some greet
ing. so long will the kiss remain a to-
ken. The woman who advocates its
abandonment surely has no children tc
caress, nc husband to greet, no sweet
heart to welcome, or else she talks
through her spring millinery.

he might the American policy, that is.

EXPANSION ACCOMPLISHED.

The accomplished fact of expansion is
bound to raise great questions of state.
Just now the duty of this government
is strictly military, but the restoration
of peace at Luzon will be a beginning
of grave responsibilities which will put
American. craftsmanship to a severe
test. AS the army began where the
treaty of peace left off, accepting the
tinality of the steps already taken, SC
congress must begin with the Filipinos
acceptance of American sovereignty as
a changeless basis of legislation. Any
rebellion against this course on the par
of mistaken or reckless partisans may
cause trouble and apprehension, and
may reflect discredit upon this country
but the truth will remain that the fact
is accomplished, and sooner or later
must be Internationally accepted.

by the famous long-distance mil

Berlin in 1892, when an Austrian
hussar, Lieutenant Won Stahrem-

About the same time an English

hours on horse which had
undergone no special training.
But, leaving out of account the
feat of that hard-riding ruffiian,

reported feat of Sir Robert Carey,
who, starting from Charing Cross
