or. Before Judge Cantrill ait George
town Tomorrow the Democrats will
bring a suit asking for an injunction
restraining Governor Taylor from ex-
erclsing the functions OF the office OF
governor. 1t is expected a temporary
injunction will be granted. In case the
Republican executive disregaris the ac-
tdon of the court the Democrats will not
press the proceedings for contempt, but
will take the case to the court Of an.

the result Of this suit and the case be-

CONGRESSIONAL.
THE HOUSE.

washington, February 13.-The house
comnMttee ON Interstate and foreign
commerce to-day decided by a vote Of
s to- 5 to report Pacific cable bill along
the LINES of the Sherman bill, defeating
by 5 to 5 the Cbrliss proposition for gov
ernment ownership.
The house adjourned early, as a mark
of respect to the Latte Representative
Chickering.
THE SENATE.
THE financial bill WAS laid before THE
senate to-day. Mr.. Allison of iowa. the
ranking Republican member Of the
finance committee, addressed the sen
alte He said HE did not propose to enitel
upon GENERAL discussion of the flnan-
clal question, that had BEEN more or LESS
considered for the past twenty five
YEARS. In the pending measure 1T was
proposed ito deal with the currency
question i'm a large, general way Mr..
Allison referred ito the senate substitute
for THE house bill and said There was no
proposition to change tine existing cur
rency-gold, silver certificates, green
backs, treasury notes and national bank
notes. Mr.. Allison said from 1892 to
1873 this country had "a double standard
of value. He said since the enactment
Of the law Of 1873 there had not passed
current single dollar of any kind in
United States money THAT was mot abso-
lutely alt parity with gold dollar. The
passage Of this bill would practically
re-enact the provisions of the law of
1873.

ANOTHER new SHELTER.
Fifty-Ton Custom smelter to Be Estab
lished Near Magdalena,

Within couple Of months. New Mex
leo will have another smelter to add to
the list and in all probability it will be
supplied with sufficient ore to admit OF
it's constant operation. The company
was organized few weeks ago by a
party of capitalists Of Minnesota, and
they have decided on erecting 50-ton
custom smelter a quarter of a mile
southwest Of the Graphic smelter, near
Magdalena. It will occupy the old Ea-
ton mill site. Plans and specifications
for the new structure are being pre-
pared, and will be completed IN a few
days. By the inauguration Of this smell
ter the mining industry Of that section
will be greatly enhanced, as 1t Is well
known fact that there are numerous
prospects and mines near by which con-
tain large amount Of low grade ore
that will not bear shipment to distant
points. BY the establishment of this
smelter the mine owners will have the
opportunity OF disposing Of their ores
at a reasonable figure, and chance to
develop their mines. 1t Is understood
that Prof. J. P. Owen, Of this city, Is
largely interested in the enterprise, and
will devote the greater portion of his at
tention to that business.

well, as said before, those people don't

The values in the veins here are more

said we have no high grade ore here;
let me refer you to the Aztec, with
depth of 300 feet, which has produced

THE B0ER SITUATION
Cecil Rhodes Will Have to Double the
Indemnity for the Jameson Raid
When Captured.
HIS FRIENDS ARE ANXIOUS
They Ask How Much Rhodes Will Be
Held For and They Are Told An
Amount Away Up In the
Millions.

London, February 13.-The WAR offic'

that Kimberley was bombardet
throughout Thursday, February g. Dur
ing THE morning of February 9 a small
infantry engagement lasting two hour.
occurred ait Alexand dersfonuedn. The sit
uation is otherwise unchanged.
The friends of Cecil Rhodes are be.
coming alarmed ait his possible fate, arlG
have sent an emissary to see DR.. Leyds
diplomatic agent Of THE Beers in Eu-
rope, In regard to the probable course
the Boers would pursue in the event OF
his capture. DR.. Leyds assured the in
termedtahies that the Beers did mot in
tend Ito kiln Rhodes, but HE added THAT
they would ceh1tainly hold him as a
hostage until Indemnity for the Jamie
SON raid was paid. In view Of develop
ments since the raid, the Beers have
also decided Ito double the amount of
the indemnity demanded, 80 Rhodes
friends will have to hand over $40, 900, :
definitely THAT DR.. Jameson Is still at
LadysmlIth, In spite Of all conflicting
reports
The British prepara tlons for a move
from the Modder river are progressing,
and Important events can be anltlcipat-
ed Within few days. A dispatch from
the Modder river announces the arrival
there of $4,000 refugees from Barkley,
west district, who had BEEN ordered
away by THE Beers because they re
fused to Join THE republicans. The refu-
gees reached the Modder river via Koo-
doosberg.
1t Is learned THAT 200 Beers were killed
or Wounded during General MacDon-
ald's reconnaissance.
There is no continuation reported of
a sortie by British troops from Lady
smith NOR of a Boer outflanking move
ment.
A report comes from Durham that the
British artillery forced THE Beers to
evactlalte camp on Blamgwanla hill,
south of Colentso 1t would be ain impor-
tant advantage if the British we're able
to occupy THE position.
The absence of General French from
the Rensberg dlstrict appears to have
given the Beers am opport unity for re-
newed activity. They are meeting with
minoas. success, and having considerable
moral effect ON THE Boer col'onists The
Boer invasion of Zululand is causing
keen anxiety. Apart from the fact that
IT threatens Buller's supplies, 1T Ia diff

The NEW TAX LAW.
It Works Well and the Counties Benefit
Thereby.
tSpringer StOckman.

When Treasurer Burnam published
the delinquent tax list 1t was said by
some that the county would never get
enough out Of 1t to pay expenses; but
happily such doubters were mistaken.
The county has already collected sew
eral times what the publication cost and
the selling has but fairly begun. Here
tofore the collection OF taxes has been
very lax and some became delinquent for
several years. Now, as fast as people
find out that they must pay or lose their
property they rustic up the money. All
expenses are paid by the delinquent 50
that in the end the delinquencies will
all be paid without cost to the county.
