To Make Gold Standard Stick,

Senator Teller says that as American
bonds bring a higher premium than
those of any other country, and Ameri-
can credit is excellent, there is no need
to have a statute fix gold as the stand
ard Of the country. If it were certain
that no president might ever secure Of
fee upon some other issue than the
money question, and then proceed to es-
tablish a silver standard by a mere or
der to his secretary Of the treasury, as
Colonel Bryan said he would do, to pay
obligations In silver when holders wish
only gold, then the legislation upon this
subject would be superfluous. The Re-
publicans have a good opportunity to
make 1t impossible for any nv mar to
reverse the system which i'm 1896 the
people approved. SO the gold standard
is to be braced by a statute. When the
people get ready to recede from this sys-
tenn they can do so b~SBelecting a con-
gress and president fof the purpose. The
law may then be repealed, and the mat
ter left open for action by the president
or by contrary enactment by congress.
The Republican administration and
congress were chosen for a purpose, and
they propose to accomplish 1t in a way
that will last until the people vote for
a different policy.

Land Court for the Islands.

The New Mexican some months ago
expressed an opinion that it would be
necessary for this government to au=
thorize some competent tribunal to set
tie titles to lands in Porto Rico and 9TH
er territory acquired from Spain, and
that the experience and special quail
fications of the court of private land
claims, which has made a study of the
Spanish land laws and done excellent
work in New Mexico and Arizona, is
well qualified for the work. In the an
nual report of Attorney General Griggs
to the senate and house of representa-
tives, which has just been issued from
the government printing office, that Off
cial states thai the necessity of such a
court to consider land matters after
awhile in the Philippines can scarcely
be questioned, and that it will certainly
be needed at an early date for Porto
Rico.

The Republicans who assembled at
the capital last Saturday were all earn
est in their determination to push the
party interests during the coming year,
so that the majority to be scored at the
next election will be double thai of the
last campaign. There Is no ~disaffection
in the party with reference to indorsing
the policy of the national administra-
tion in all particulars. The administra-
ton has done we'll, and the Republicans
of New Mexico do not hesitate to say so.
They said so two years age with their
votes, approving of the Republican tar
if and sound honey policy and elect
ing by a handsome majority the candi-
date for delegate to congress nominated
upon a platform in line with Republican
ideas, and retiring a delegate who won
in the days when the people were mis-
takenly indorsing free silver coinage.

lust Plain Republicans.

This year it will not be fashionable
with Republicans to prefix adjectiyes
to show what sort of Republicans they
are, and the word silver will become OBJ
solete SO far as members of that party
are concerned. Just plain Republicans,
that is what nearly all of them will be
hereafter. Those who fought earnestly
to secure silver legislation must nov ad-
nit that the country is getting along all
right without measures to boost the
white metal, and that nothing is wrong
with the currency system after all.
What was needed was a restoration of
confidence upon the part of the world,
including the people of this country,
that nothing was to be done to disturb
the financial system, which Is now SIM
liar to that of all great nations, and
builded upon a rock, as it We're. When
this confidence was established by the
elevation Of President Mckinley and a
Republican congress, and-the tariff sys-
TEN was restored under which the
try had before seen it's greatest activ-
ity, things industrial began to hum, and
now the money of the country is all
working, and a great many millions
have been sent over from Europe which
were withdrawn from America during
the Bryanic scare

4 Money discussing Enterprise

The coal company mining in the Cap
itan field in Lincoln county now en-
ploys 800 miners, although the mines
are only in the development stage, and
until a few days ago no chamber was
turned out. Yet the production has
reached fifteen cars daily, Nearly every
one of the miners was brought from
eastern states for this work, as no sur
plus labor could be found in the terri
tory. The coal industry. like gold min
ing, completes with nc other enterprise,
and the cost Of production is almost
entirely for labor. A community re-
ceives much of the circulating medium
as a result of the mining. Lincoln coun-
ty is fortunate in having such
and also in having them in possession
of an energetic company which converts
the coal into money as rapidly as posi-

Senator Warren of Wyoming h

Senator Warren of Wyoming has an
nounced his opposition to the proposed
treaty with the Argentine republic be-
cause it would place the wool of that
country in competition with the product
of the United States in the home mar
ket. The Wyoming senator declares the
proposition originates with manufac-
turers of WOODEN goods and with buyers
who have secured the fleece of the
southern republic for shipment into this
country. The Argentine woods would
certainly undersell the American prod
uct at present prices, and make the
industry again improbable, thereby de-
~stroying the prosperity enjoyed In the
west Of late, to a very great extent.

Bryan and his New England

Colonel Bryan and his New England
followers have held a love feast among
themselves and given it out cold that
histrip into that part of the country
has worked wonders. Colonel Bryan Is
a hopeful cuss, or he would long ago
have given up the ghost. The fire of his
own eloquence warns his imagination,
and when he has delivered himself of a
speech, he is as delighted with the as
surance which his own mind gives him
of ultimate success as a southern dar-
key who goes into a trance at a revi-
val, is that he is already in sight of the
pearly gates.

II Miqht Have Been TAYLOR.

Whatever sympathy may be felt for
the slaughtered Democratic claimant Of
the governorship of Kentucky, let it not
be forgotten that he was not elected to
the office. Outside of Kentucky no
newspaper has recently asserted that
he was entitled to the office, and only
extremely partisan journals in that
state have upheld him in his claim.
Probably Goebel himself did not believe
that he was elected, ALTHOUGH he
thought he should have been. He and
his stalwarts proposed to take the office
any way, by getting a partisan legisla-
ture to declare him elected after the
Democratic election commission had
certified that Governor Taylor was
elected. Threats Of violence and polit-
ical death were freely made by the Goe-
bel element against the election COM
m~issloners, and later against members
Of. the legislature who should oppose
him. That violence was feared by Gov
ernor Taylor and his friends is shown
by the fact that a considerable guard
Of volunteer citizens from the noun
tains went to Frankfort and camped in
the building where the executive offices
are located, and Governor Taylor DEEM
ed it prudent to remain almost con-
stantly in this building within reach Of
these defenders. That one of them,
whether Republican or anti-Goebel
Democrat, opposed to the stealing Of
the office by the tyrant of the Demo-
cratic party, ~overstepped the bounds of
moderation, lost his head and commit
ted murder is regretted and condemned
by all good men, but the individual vio-
lence might very easily have been on
the other side of the house had Gov.
Taylor not kept off the street, where he
would have encountered the swagger-
ing partisans Of Goebel.

ROBBED THE GRAVE.

A startling incident, of which Mr..
John Oliver, Of Philadelphia, was the
subject, Is narrated by him as follows:
Il was In a most dreadful condition. My
skin was almost yellow, eyes sunken,
tongue coated, pain continually in back
and sides, no appetite-gradually grow
ing weaker day by day. Three physi-
clans had given me up. Fortunately, a
friend advised trying Electric Bitters';
and to my great Joy and surprise, the
first bottle made a decided improve
ment. I continued their use for three
weeks, and am now a we'll man. I know
they saved my life, and robbed the
grave of another VICTIM" No one should
fall to try them. Only 50 cts, guaran-
teed, at Fischer & Co.'s drug store.

The dispensaries or saloons

ed by the state of South Carolina re-
ceived in the year 1899 from the sale of
liquors 81, 15S, 081. SO. The net profit was
$414, ISL. "a. The money went for the
most part to the school fund of the state
and to the counties and cities. South
Carolina has not a very large nor very
rich population, yet the people evidently
do their duty toward the state by pa
trondzing the public bar, and the gov
rho has no occasion to repeat the his
torica1 remark once made to the gov
ernor of North Carolina.

SHOULD BE BETTER PAID.

(Dona Ana County Republican,
The salary of the governor of New
Mexico is only $4,000 per annum, and
that of each of the judges Of the su-
preme court $4,000. The Silver City En-
terprise and the New Mexican, in COM
menting on these items, call attention
to the fact that they are entirely too
small, and the former journal, in men,
tioning a bill which has been introduced
into both houses of congress to increase
the salaries of the supreme court judges.
suggests that the chief justice should
receive $500, the associate Judges $1,000
and the governor also $4,000. The sug-
gestions are good ones, and will meet
with the approval of every fair-minded
citizen.
