Kentucky May Remain Republican.

Kentucky has had a Republican gov
ernor for four years, and the people
have not suffered as much as they used
to imagine they would should that party
be in control Of the affairs of the state.
And now they are to have another Re
publican governor and a set of Repub-
lican state officials for fou years. If
the legislature We're only Republican by
a working majority the repeal of the
Goebel election law, which threatened
to deprive the people Of civil liberty,
would be repealed, and the state would
become so pleased with the new order
of political conditions that the Repub-
lican party might have even chances for
future control without Democratic
quarrels being necessary for. the cleo
ton of such men as Governor Taylor.
Kentucky has been more Independent.
than other southern states in political
matters ever since the day when she
declined to go into the southern Confed-
eracy, and followed this evidence of 10y
atty by sending 80, 900 Of her citizens in
10 lne war TOT the purpose OF pTeSerN-
ing the union, and ranked mex to Mis-
souri, in the proportion of volunteers
furnished from a slave state. Even in
1852, long prior to the war, Kentucky
was one Of the four states which pre-
ferred to give her electoral vote for the
Wings against the Democratic candi
date, and again was one of the three
states which voted for the Unionist can
didate in 1860. Kentucky seems to be
naturally other than a Democratic
state, and only the negro question ar
rayed it against the Republican party.
But as this matter is becoming less and
less Of an issue, the colored vote being
much divided, and fear no longer exists
of domination from that source, Ken
lucky, as in 1896, may hereafter be
counted on the Republican side in ma
tional elections and independent in
state elections, with the courage to re-
buke attempted dishonesty in political
matters,

~Consumptives Who Should Stay al Home.

The Sisters of st. Mary in St. Louis
be used in establishing a s%anitarium ii,
that city for consumptives, as the reg
ular hospitals do not care to receive pa
tients suffering from this disease for
fear of contagion, or because of the pop
ular belief that the disease is contag-
iOus. h plan of the association under
suburbs of the city and build cottages
in which the patients may be isolated.
The work is certainly deserving of sup
port. While cures can scarcely be eff
feCted in that climate, if the hospital
shall be the ~forerunner of others in the
centers of population, which will detain
of patients who are too weak to recover
their health in the dry mountain region
to which too many Of them come only
to die, the maintenance of such sani-
tariums will be d blessing to the pa
tients n the country at large. They
will serve to keep many people from
leaving their families when it is too late
for them to receive substantial benefit.
And the SanitariumS must after awhile
encourage those for whom relief may
be had to come west for cure, combining
their own operations to those who
should not be sent way

the west for the use of great amounts
Of capital in putting water on land.
Strange as 1t may seem the failures,
other thar those of schemes defective
in themselves, have come from a dearth
of farmers to buy the land and use the
water, for the most magnificent scheme
of irrigation is useless unless the water
is made to produce crops. If farmers

HOW BIG LEASERS WORK.

carlsbad ArguS.)
About 800 small cattlemen in the
North Park district of Colorado hay
sent a communication to the state land
board protesting against any lease OF
large tracts in that region to cattle cor
porations that may be trying TO secure
control of the valuable range over there.
It is intimated that the North Park
Cattle Company is negotiating to get
this range, and the small growers are
protesting in advance. The range is at
present government land, but the LANE
board may be asked to select it for the
benefit of the company, which, by the
way, is said to be controlled by large
beef men of Chicago.
The packers and big meat dealers of
eastern cities would very easily secure
control of immense cattle companies,
and these companies having control of
innumerable miles of grazing territory,
the whole scheme and plan would be
worked out and operated from a Chica-
go office. To what end, think you, of the
man of moderate means, who at the
present time is deriving a living and
support for his family ON these acres o"
grass in question?
The enactment of Il national lease law
portends serious disaster to the live
stock interests of New Mexico. The peo-
pie of the territory are counseled to
give the question most careful thought.

THE PROPOSED LEASE LAW.

Albuquerque Journal-Democrat.)
A very large portion of the best beef
that now goes to market from the graz.
ing sections of the west is produced by
the settlers and the natives Of the coun-
try, who have made little homes in the
valleys, where q few acres can be cult
waited, and then piece out their incomes
with small punches of cattle, usually
from twenty-five to a hundred head,
which a be turned out to Craze upon
the adjoining public lands. AS these
people have not the means to lease and
fence the range required for their ami
mails, they would be forced at once to
give up the business, and the whole cat
tie interest of the country would imme-
diately pass into h hands of the trust.
Such a result would not only be dis
astrous to all this section of the coun-
try where cattle raising and wool grow
ing are the principal industries of the
people, but it would be almost equally
unfortunate for the people of the coun-
try at large, because it would put the
production of the meat supply from all
the vast grazing sections of the west
absolutely in the hands of a trust that
would be able to fix prices at it's pleas
ure.

FIRED OUT BODILY.
Citizens Of Phoenix Indignant Over
the Charges ExaCted For Water.

A gentleman arrived last night from
Phoenix, Arizona, who stated that an
exciting time was had recently at a
mass meeting held by the leading citi-
zens OF that city over the question of
| voting for bonds to establish municipal
ownership of a water works system.
1t seems that the main issue in the
last city election was the question of
the city owning it's own water works.
1t appears also that the city cour Gil
men elected were pledged to carry out
that purpose but have proved them
selves recreant; that is to say a major
ity of them have.
At the meeting referred to above the
water company and it's friends were
fred bodily out of the meetings held in
the opera house, which was densely
packed with indignant citizens who
were aroused to the demonstration
over the extortionase rates exacted by
the water monopoly.
Inc citizens were successful in their
efforts, as the mayor has consented to
issue an election proclamation for the
issuance of the bonds in terms accord
ing with the demands of the citizens.

AN OLD TIME CARD
A Curious Relic OF Early Railroad
ing Preserved BY an Enqineer

Engineer John Snyder, of Newton
kas., has dug up the first time card is
sued TO MIN by the Santa Fe when he
entered it's employ over twenty-one
years ago, says the Kansas City Jour
nal. IL is No. Is, dated May II, 1878
and is quite a curiosity now. It is
doubtful If there is another copy In
existence outside of the general Offices
at Topeka 1t bears the % print of the
old Topeka Commonwealth publishing
house.
1t is a system card, covering every
mile OF track operatei by the road, and
has all the rules and regulations for
she government OF employees. Il has
only four pages, about the size of those
of the cards now in use. The present
system card has fifty pages of sche-
dulles, while only the division cards
have the twenCy-sight pages of rules
low In force. he card went into effect
at 800 q. M, where all cards now 60
into effect at 11:O5 a. NJ. G. F. Morse
was general superintendent at that
time, with two division superin tend
EMS, w. Il. Pettibone and J. D.
Dunn.
The mileage of the road was then
1S5 miles. yet there were seven "divis-
ions" Atchisou division, from Atchi-
son TO Topeka; Kansas City, from
Kansas City to Emporia junction.:
Cotton wood Valley, from Emporia to
Wichita; Arkansas Valley, from New
ton 80 Lskin; Colorado, from Lakiu to
Pueblo: Walnut Valley, from Florence
30 Eldorado; and Pleasant Hill, from
Pleasant Hill to DeSoto Junction.
The last two were simply branches of
twenty-nine and forsy-four miles in
length, with only one train day each
way. r. j. Parker, of this city, super
intsndent of the Middle division, now
has Sol miles of track in his charge.
The trains were mbered in q
peculiar manner, for example: The
train out of Atchison was No. 1: on the
next division it WAS No. IL, then No.
Il, ten being added to the number on
each division. Pueblo was ther the
western terminus of the .road.
Railroaders will note with curiosity
the form" in the movement of the |
srslns. Rule 81 on the old card reads: |
West bound trains will wait for de-
'ayed east bound trains of the same !
class until thirty minutes after having |
time OF west bound trains and will then |
allowing five minutes for |
variation of watches, keeping thirty
i've minutes behind their card time at
zach succeeding station until the ex-
Decsed train Is met'and passed" The !
same rule applied TO east bound trains
With the exception that the time was
i've minutes instead of thirty-five
Inferior trains had no rights at all and !
we're little better than haudcsrs when
passenger train was il sight. T.
