The Opera, Martha"

A large audience greeted the opera
Martha, last evening at the Auditor
ium, and it was greatly pleased au-
dience, too. The company is composed
of an able list of singers who sang
with a vlgor and a correctness CT tone
that was refreshing inthe extreme; and
the performance, aside from the stage
settings, was a finished one. The
company carries It's own orchestra of
five pieces, and they sustained the
singers splendfdly.
The cast as we'll as being good sing
ers, are first-rate lot Of actors which
of course lends much to Uhe charm OF
an opera.
The audience was enthusiastic
throughout, and called the singers be-
fore the curtain at one particularly
well-sung part.

ular session at the Superlntendents
office, High School Building last eve
ming Messrs. Andrews, Curtis, Dye,

ton he was instructed Ito do the work.

pipes to drain water from the radia-
tors in the Willard building, had been
done and the building would now be
more uniformly and better heated.

showed a total enrolment for January
of 1856, gain of 81 over the Decem-
Der enrolment. The per cent of pup
lis who have neither been absent nor

The resolution was adopted by a unan,
imous vote.
Mr.. Eyssen explained in detail the
"extras" on the Marion building, the

considering the size of the Job the bill
for extras is very small Mr.. Eysser
stated that Mr.. Dowiing's bill amount
ed to $17, ,43S.15, and with the furnish
ings and all the cost of the building
did not much exceed $4,000, which Is
somewhat less than was figured on II

An Emphatic Protest.

The people of New Mexico in eonven
ton assembled in Albuquerque on yes
terday placed themselves on record
strongly and unequivocally against the
enactment of the Stephens bill, which
would rob them of their rights and
privileges for the purpose of enriching
a few land grabbers, sharks and land
spectators in Ell Paso, Texas, and
Juarez. Mexico. The present congress
will heed this protest of the people of
this territory, and will not allow Mr..
Stephens nefarious, Ubiquitous and dis
honest scheme to become law. But
eternal vigilance is the price of liber-
.ty,' and the people must be watchful
and vigilant until the measure is killed
outright in the present congress. In
the. 57th congress, it is to be hoped New
Mexico will have a couple of Republic
can senators and a Republican repre-
sentative, and then the average Texas
Democratic congressman, who cares
not a fig for the rights of the people of
New Mexico. will not be as forward and
as brash with New Mexico interests as
he now is, when the territory has no
vote and no voice in the deliberations of
congress.

Why a Chanue For the Worse?

1t will be well not to forget, that I'M
der a Democratic county administra-
ton and under laws passed by Demo-
cratic legislative assemblies, Santa Fe
county was bankrupt and running con-
tinually into debt, while under a Re-
publican county administration and un-
der laws passed by a Republican legis-
lative assembly, this county is paying
dollar for dollar, and is being adj
ministered carefully, honestly ana eff
GENTLY. Why therefore a change from
an honest set of officials and honest
government to dishonest government
and bad officials? Where does the sense
of any such proceeding come in? Whom
would it benefit? Not the people, tax
payers and property owners surely, but
simply a lot of office seekers and poll
~ticians, who have no other means of
livelihood than to hold office and rob
the people.

Missouri Republicans gave three
cheers for President Mckinley at their
state convention yesterday. There are
no mugwumps among them, and they
will make another effort this year to re-
deem Missouri from it's Democratic
bosses and Democratic misrule. This is
a big undertaking. but then larger
Democratic majorities than there are in
Missouri have been overcome in other
states. New York has given Demo-
cratic majorities that raj up into the
hundred thousand, and still President
Mckinley carried it by a majority of
over 200, 900. There is hope for the Re-
publicans in Missouri, and as they are
undaunted and unterrified. the unex-
pected may happen this fall, as it does
once in awhile.

The bill placing the power to create
forest reserves and national parks in
the hands of congress is a good one. 1t
directly. and therefore is properly
placed in the hands of the representa-
tives of the people. While the president
of the United States or the secretary of
the interior would not knowingly do an
injustice to any portion of the country,
yet their Individual views may at times
be influenced by reasons which an open
discussion on the floor of a legislative
body would dispel.

Senator Jones has introduced a bill in
the senate to stop blacklisting by corpo-
rations. Blacklisting a man is nasty
business, but there is no law, and there
never will be a law, that can stop it al
together. In employing men for respon-
sible positions, the most natural ques-
ton will still be: What satisfaction did
he give his former employer?' A man
who is incompetent, careless and dis
honest is blacklisting himself by his
own actions, and through no power of
legislation will he be able to secur or
hold a job. The competent and indus
trious and honest workman does not
fear blacklisting.

The northern tier Of New Mexico
counties are clamoring for more rail-
road facilities. San Juan county Is en-
tirely without a railroad, and yet 1t is
a section that even without a railroad
shows wonderful development and
great growth. Taos has q railroad along
its western border, but should have a
branch line to cut through the county.
Vast portions of Rio Arriba county are
practically dead to the world for lack
Of communication. A line from Clayton
to Springer would do wonders for that
section Of the territory through which
1t would pass. As 1t Is. Union county
seems to be less in New Mexico than 1t
is in Texas or Colorado.

Il Cuts Both Ways.

The Republican, who desires faction
al strife and dissent in Republican
ranks for the purpose of getting even
or because he thinks he is better than
his party, simply plays into the hands
Of the Democratic leaders and bosses Of
the territory, and works against his
W best interests. OF course, human
nature is perverse and some men may
do and M doubt r doing this, but If
they do, they will lose their places in
the party and will certainly not be rec
ogniEed al Republicans after the next
presidential election. This thing of
getting even in your W party. be-
cause forsooth everything does not suit
you. IL q double edged knife and likely
to cut both ways. A word to the wise.

Growth Of Cities.

The trend Of population to the cities
will again be verified by the census of
this year. OF the 1900, 900 inhabitants
in the country in 1890, only 1872, 900 lived
in places having more than 5000 popu-
lation. In 1890, out of a population of
63, 00O, 900, almost 30 per cent, or IS, O0O,-
900 lived in cities of 5000 and more in
habitants. No other country has
than one city having a population more
than a million inhabitants, not even
China, ac ,ording t. recent statistics.
The census this year will show that
New York has $500, 900 people, Chicago
almost 1000, 900. and Philadelphia 1900
900, while st. Louis, Baltimore and Bos-
ton will have passed the half million
mark. 1t is estimated that fully one
third Of the people of the United States
at the present day live in towns. The
tendency to gather in cities is just as
noticeable in the old world. That there
must and will be a change in this res
pect seems to be certain.
Better means of communication in
the country districts will help to bring
about a change. Civilization has ad-
vanced far into the backwoods and the
luxuries and conveniences Of city life
are no longer unknown in country vii
lagos. Luckily the United States has
plenty Of room for the expansion Of
cities into the country. New Mexico
alone could harbor half Of the popula-
ton Of the country without being as
crowded as is Belgium or some other
European countries. In Texas there Is
room for every man, woman and child
In the United States without 1t being
more thlckly populated than Rhode
Island or Massachusetts.

BURLINGTON ROUTE.
9necia1 Chanoee Time

On and after Sunday, April 20, the
Burlington's Chicago Special for Oma-
ha, Chicago, st. Joseph and st. Louis
will leave Denver at 4 p. m. in place of
$3.50 a. m. as heretofore.
The change Is made in response to Q
very general demand on the part of the
travelling public for a fast afternoon
train from Denver to the East.
The new hour of departure is better
than the old n in many ways. 1t
means that one can now make the 1000
mile journey from Denver to Chicago
or St. Louis with the loss Of but one
business day.
1t means, too, that one car leave prac-
tically any point in eastern Colorado at
a convenient hour and arrive at Denver
in plenty Of time to connect with the
Chicago Special.
OF the Chicago Special itself it is I'M
necessary to say more than that it has
no superior anywhere. Neither in speed,
comfort nor reliability Is 1t surpassed
by any other train on the continent.

The NEW CAPITOL.
Its Dedication Will Be An Interesting His.
toric Event.
CRocky Mountain News.)

Rocky Mountain News.)
An interesting historic event in New
Mexico will be the formal dedication of
the new territorial capitol building on
Monday, June 4. The first modern cap
itol was unfortunately destroyed ly fire
a few years ago, and another handsome
structure has been erected in it's place.
Ex-Governor Prince will be he orator
of the day, and the accompanying GER
emonies will be both appropriate and
imposing.
Santa Fe is the oldest capital ir the
United States. 1t is also the oldest city
in the United States which has main
tanned a continuous existence. st. Au-
gustine, in Florida, was located at an
earlier date, but abandoned for many
years. The first settlement at Santa Fe
was in 1851, and some traditions place
a date even prior to this. It's municipal
records begin in 1904, sixteen years be-
fore the landing of the pilgrims at Ply
mouth rock. From hat time, at least,
it has maintained a continuous exist
ence. 1t was the capital of the Span
ish province for more than two centur-
les. It's ancient palace" as the resi-
dence of the Spanish and later the Mex
lean viceroys was termed, is the mos
historic building in the United States
From it's roof, Brigadier General Kear-
ney, in 1S46, proclaimed New Mexico an
nexed to the United States, and guar
anteed to the people the rights of Am
erican citizenship. The building re-
manned the residence and official CAPT
tol of the American governors until a
new and modern building was erected
| a few years ago. The old palace" still
stands and should be carefully pre-
served for the many rare historical in,
| cidents associated with it. The new
capitol, however, marks an era of pro
| gress in the territory, on which the peo'
| pie of New Mexico are to be duly con
graduated. ...
