DEMOCRATIC CLERKS ACTIVE.
Adviccs From Their Homes Are That
Bryan VIII He Elected.


Democratic clerks in the Government
service are making contributions TO the
Democratic campaign Nrd- This informa-
tion was given by an of. cial OF one OF the
executive departments today He said:
This is a situation which is especially
significant. In my service in this depart
ment have noted that this usually il not
invariably. means a Democratic year, and
sometimes a Democratic landslide. The
Democratic clerk under n Republican Ad-
ministratioD rarely contributes to a Re-
publican campaign fund. and he makes 10
contribution to his Own party unless he
becomes possessed OF a strong belief that
lis party is going to win at the polls.
Since the Convention at Kansas City
the clerks have been active. and by means
of messengers and friends have been send
ing voluntary contributions to the prcp-r
distributing points. Ii is very significant
have sometimes tried 10 reason this out
and am convinced that this belief which
stirs up the Democratic clerks is because of
adyices from their own homes and from
sources which they understand to be trust
worthy. For instance, one clerk gets a let
ter from his brother n-law, who may be a
Republican. He says, perhaps: L think
you fellows have little the best of Us
here this time Neighbor Smith. an old
time Republican. is going 10 vote your way
this fall, and Mr.. Jones. who keeps the tig
store, ard who worked for Mr.. Mckinley
last time. IS working the other way cow
Another clerk from another part of the
country perhaps gets a letter from his
brother Who is a clerk in the village store.
and he says Everything is Democratic in
this couaty this year and there isn't any
tight in the Republicans Another clerk
gets similar letter. and all the Demo-
cratic clerks talk il over among them
selves.
In this way they get great deal OF
inside information and the manner in
which they make their contributors indi-
Gates to me what the information is. Now.
in the last Bryan Mckinley campaign. il
was only the Democratic clerks from the
South and parts OF the West who made
contributions. and even these men were
not particularly active. In the campaign
two years ago. | think that the Demo-
cratic clerks in this department did not
contribute five dollars to the Democratic
campaign fund. But il Is different now.
The clerks from the South, East. and
West, l have positive information. are
sending wads Of their money to the cam
paign committees. This means that the
letters from their home districts contain
the news. things are Democratic here

PROFESSOR IN ERROR.
The Joke Was on the Professor and

A certain professor OF northern university
was reprosching his students with their tsrdiness
in arriving at his classroom in tho morning.

their laxity, 'the Roman youths swan three

This Awful Imperialism.

By October l there will be less than
1000 United States soldiers in Cuba.
There is expansion and imperialism for
you with a vengeance! What a tyrant
President Mckinley Is, anyway; mark
this and mark it well. One thousand
soldiers to overawe a million and a half
of people in Cuba and annex the pearl
of the Antilles to the United States, re-
CARELESS Of the wish and will of the Gu
bans. How those hundreds of thousands
OF Cubans u be ~tyrannized cVer
by these 1000 minions and "P%raetorian
Guards" of President Mckinley? Just
think of it; it must be awful, dreadful,
fearful to behold the iron heels of these
brutal soldiers and myrmidons of a Re-
publican president Upon the soft and
tender necks of the innocent, helpless
Great guns! Who, 1874 years
ago, would have thought it? Who would
have believed that such gigantic tyran-
and bloody imperialism, supported
by a large standing army, namely, one |
soldier for each 1000 population, would |
ever hold sway in this unhappy, down
trodden, shaking and paralyzed coun-
try? This must cease; the spectacle of
Imperialism, according to Bryan, Clark |
Montana, Croker ct AL, is too horri- |
Die and sorrowful a sight to behold.

The International Dam

There Is no enthusiasm throughout
New Mexico over the international dam
scheme at Ell Paso. While the advo-
Gates of the building Of the dam AVE
apparently decided to drop the clause
from the Stephens bill which was OBJ
~jectiOnable to New Mexico and Colo
RADIO. yet the men who are behind the
dam scheme are of such reputation
that they must be watched. Suppose
the Stephens bill does eliminate the
clause which interferes with the water
rights in New Mexico and Colorado, yet
there is no assurance that after the
dam Is built that appeals would not be
made to the United States courts to re-
strain the people along the Rio Grande
and its tributaries north of r, Paso
from erecting new irrigation works, on
the ground that they would interfere
with the rights Of the International
dam. New Mexico has no objection to
the United States government building
a dam at FL Paso, but 1t will not relin-
quish its fight on the Stephens bill un-
til in that bill is embodied a specific |
provision that non of the clauses of the
bill should ever be so constructed or
Interpreted as to interfere with the
of any new irrigation works on
he Rio Grande and its tributaries
1orth Of FL Paso. If such a clause Is in
New Mexico will withdraw its
but not before that. :

The SMALLPOX in Colorado,

DR.. G. e. Tyler, of the Colorado board
Of health, has returned to Denver from
Ldp through the state, during which
he found twenty cases of smallpox al
Parachute, three cases at Rocky Ford,
one case at Debeque, one case at Glen
wood Springs. Besides that, it is known
that cases exist at Denver, Pueblo, Col
orado Springs and other Colorado
towns. Now that is nothing to be
alarmed about, but it must be remem-
bered that DR.. Tyler threw himself into
a fit because several cases of smallpox
were reported to exist in New Mexico,
and he appealed to the authorities at
Washington to interfere in New Mexico
in behalf of the suppression of the dis
ease, unjustly charging the territorial
authorities with negligence in that re-
spect. Now, if New Mexico would want
to retaliate, it would make similar
charges and would order a quarantine
against Colorado, but fortunately for
Colorado, the New Mexico authorities
are not people who strain at gnats and
swallow camels.

Tie Alliance Ruuahoa.

Ths Democratic papers, having been
stun.ped on the silver, the imperial and
the trust questions, are again turning
their attention to the British alliance
%bugaboo. This is more absurd than all
the other bugaboos combined, for every
citizen knows that even if the secretary
of state had put his signature to any
treaty Of alliance between the two ma
tons it would not stand the test of a
trial, for the United States senate must
pass upon all treaties to make them
binding. Secretary of State Hay has
as little right to make a treaty of alli-
ance with Great Britain without the
of the senate, as would the
mayor of Toledo or the governor of
New Mexico.

the United States government, if the Ell
Paso people are shrewd enough to in
duce congress to make the necessary
appropriation. But they do most posi-
lively object to, and will most earnestly
work against the passage through con-
gress or the ratification by the senate
of any bill or treaty which carries with
it a provision so manifestly unjust as
that contained in the sixth clause of the
proposed treaty, and they also believe
that the rank injustice of such a provi-
sion is so plain and palpable and the
ruin which it would inevitably bring to
thousands of American citizens is so
clearly apparent that it needs only to
have the attention of congress called
to the matter to prevent the passage
through that body of any such measure.
