himself any better than people who
had had any such experience.
TIE people who accept you as men,
who do not puff themselves up with
-condescension in pretending to help
you quit you old way but give you
a chance to work, and do not call up
the past against you, are the only
people you can depend upon except
yourselves. Every man has t o make
or find his own means of earning a
living in the world, and most of the
men who have been engaged in gam
bling in Roswell are capable of sue
ceeding in other lines of business.
Give work a fair shuttle, and you will
get a square deal.

THE REFERENDUM CLAUSE.

NIOh1 . N<IA6t
Senator Morgan of Alabama. holds
that the referring of the jo~inture
question to the people of the two ter
ritories as a condition precedent to
the life or death of the Arizona-New
Mexico section of the statehood bill
is unconstitutional, holding that con-
gress has no authority to delegate
it's power on this subject. This is
the position the Sta has always Ia
ken. There is but one course or way
to be pursued in the making of a fed
that is, it must pass both houses and
be approved by the president, it may
be passed over his approval by a
two-thirds vote of 10Th houses.
The element of the referendum
does not enter into u federal law
making power. Some of the states
have adopted the initiative and ref
erendum principle as part of its law
making power, but this e not OBJ
tain under our federal constitution
or congress.
This may prove to be a very nice
point in the disposition of the Ari.
zona-New Mexico section of the joint
statehood bill.

KEEP 1T IN MIND.
Albuquerque Journal.

Albuquerque Journal.
Do not permit the statehood cam
paign to cause you to lose sight of
the fact that the good name of New
Mexico, whether state or territory,
~imperatively demands that we should
choose a Legislature this fall vastly
different from the one we chose at
the last election. If statehood fails
we can continue to live under the
territorial form of government. We
can't live as American citizens ought
to live, but we can live. On the other
hand, however, if we repeat for a
ago, and select legislatures like the
last, which devoted itself almost ex-
clusively to the aus of organized
plumber for the benefit of the gang,
we shall soon have a form of govern
ment which no se~lf-respecting man
can live under. A very few more ad-
ditions to the tax levy would ender
our property worthless, because the
taxes with the very smallest allow
ance for insurance and repairs, would
absorb the entire income, and leave
his money. Whenever that point is
reached business stagnation follows,
and people move away. And we are
mucn nearer that point now than
most people are aware of. We are
so near it that we can't afford to take
any more chances.
Fortunately we have a governor
who has the interest of the public at
heart, and will earnestly strive in
favor of such measures as will serve
to promote the development and pros
perity of the territory, but it is well
known that plans are already being
laid by the old gang to thwart his
purposes at every point. All they
want is a bare majority of the legis-
lature. Given that, they will then In
seat, without any shadow of right,
enough of the friends of reform to
give them a majority OF two-thirds.
by which to override the executive
veto. and then the gang will be in
the saddle again. These are facts of
vital ~interes to all the people of the
territory. and they should not be for
a moment lost sight of. We can not
AFFORD to let any other issue obscure
them.

IL the "Parson" didn't smoke a
to bet a box of cigars that Bryan will
be the next President of the United
States-but seriously. the Parson
doesn't gamble on his political pro-
phecies any more than he does on
his religious opinions. There is al
ways a possibility of betting on the
wrong morse, even though a man be
from Kentucky and know all about
the critters. AS Col. George Slaugh-
ter was recently heard to remark.
There never was but one man on
earth who never made any mistakes
and you know what they did to him."
1t is trite and commonplace to say
that h Parson has nothing against
the gamblers as men. But the state
ment happens to be true in this case,
even though it may have bee used
by hypocrites from time immemorial.
Some Of the dearest boyhood friends
of the Parson have gone the gambling
route-yea, one at least in sad mem
DRY followed the ruin of his soul
by a pistol shot that sank the wreck
without hope in the sea of eternity.
But we shall not dwell upon this. 1t
is mentioned only to illustrate the
possibility of being prejudiced ag-
ainst gambling n at the same time
sympathizing with the erring boys
who have been gradually dragged in
TO it until they ave lost all power
of resistance. and do not realize the
approach of their own doom

till they are too strong to be bro
ken"
The Parson will not denounce gam
blers as men; neither will he gush
over the occasional displays of good
-heartedness by individual gamblers in
their periodical reactionary frames
of mind. We simply say that the pro
fessional gambler is not much worse
han his patrons-hardly as bad as
those who license the business.
Neither is he any better than peo-
pie who earn their bread by the
sweat of their brows, and do not risk
on games of chance what they owe
to their wives and children and to
the butcher, the grocer n other
people. The Parson a never re-
garded the ~unprodigal son as a mere
lay figure to set off the story of re-
joicing at the return of the Prodigal.
The whole community is to blame
for gambling having been licensed
heretofore in Roswell, and the bust
ness has been legal, if not honest
and legitimate morally. The Parson
is a good enough Democrat to say
that if the majority of people in the
community were in favor of licensed
gambling-so be it. But only until a
majority could be aroused against
the vice. Just because he believes
in majority rule, the Parson is now
opposed to the city council repeating
the anti-gambling ordinance. Not
what a majority of the council wants,
but what a majority of the people
want in the proper thing. The Demo
cratic city convention declared itself
on the gambling question, and it is
the duty of the party's representatives
to carry out that policy until such
time as the party in convention shall
declare it's further purpose in the
matter.
The Parson believes the anti-gam-
| bling ordinance will not be repealed,
and that this present week is the
last week of licensed gambling in
Roswell. If any person tries to con-
tinue gambling in defiance of the law
he will no longer have the defense
that it is legal-he will be an outlaw
and subject to punishment as other
criminals.
The fellows running the games
have not been turned out on the
highway without warning, and the
Parson is pleased to observe that
some of them have already made ar
engagements for getting into better
business. The Parson is not asking
any of them to repent and be bap-
tised at once. He is enough of a Me-
thodist to believe in a few months
probation But 1t is up to the gam
blers to quit the business in Roswell,
and they have been given plenty of
time to get ready for the change.
They will have to buckle down and
work like the rest of us if they have
not laid up more money than, gam
blers usually do.
Speaking of joining the church, the
Parson once knew a Baptist evangel-
list who was a reformed gambler
he was converted in a revival and
stayed converted, n kept growing
and leading other to the source of
life. The reason the Parson believes
that man was truly converted was
because he never boosted of how
mean he used to be. He would not
talk abo mis- own past except occa-
sionauy to an intimate friend OF one
who already knew his history. He
left it behind him and did not go
about posing as a reformed gam
bier" He tried to do the best he
could with what there was left OF life
for him to live. and did not consider

WE'LL POSTED.


 An interesting story that bears on the prodigality of Robert w. Cham bers' literary output was narrated in a New York club the other day.
 Our literary page comes out on Fri day" said the night editor of a news paper, land on Thursday night, long after the literary editor had gone home, the makeup man pushed up to me and said:
 Look here, there's about an inch to be filled in the literary page, and no book stuff set up. What shall I dol?
 "Our literary editor was very partic- ular that no miscellany ever should ap- pear on his page. He insisted on it's always being a book page purely. So, in this dilemma, the makeup man and I. stood and racked our brains, trying to think of some three-line literary item to add to the department.
 ''In the midst of our trouble, a young compositor turned from the keyboard of his clicking machine.
 Look here, sir, he said, you won't make any mistake if you run in some thing about another absorbing novel from the pen of Robert w, Chambers rapidly nearing completion, and to be put on the market in two weeks"- | Washington Post.

WHAT IRVING DID FOR HIS PRO-
 FESSION.

In one respect Sir Henry Irving was especially remarkable-he was such a singular combination of artistic and practical ability. But that comes very far short of describing what he was. Besides being an artist and 8 man of business, he was a consumate man of the world, a diplomatist and man of great intellectual ability. He was, fur thermore, very kindhearted man. He had kindness not often to be met with in one at the head of large enter prises, who must of necessity say No many times for once he can say Yes" With the force and decision of char acter of a man of action, he combined a great deal of tact and address-qual- ities, no doubt, all the more effective by reason of his kindness of heart.
 To Irving more than any other man is due the change that has taken place in London in recent years in the social position of actors-a change which has come within my own memory. When first went to London in 1870 there were no actors in society. When I came back in 1877 there were good many of them to be seen about. There was growing up society which was com posed fo successful artists, the new rich people and the professional class, with a sprinkling of such of the older so- ciety as had a fancy for art and the theater In that society the actors had not only a good, but distinguished place.
 Irving had high idea of the dignity of his own profession, and he illustrat- cd in himself what he thought the DO sition and the manners of an actor should be. He had not in the least what has always been supposed to be the off -the-stage manner of an actor He thought an actor should be just like anybody else. fancy that is not ar easy thing to do. The actor must be indeed a gentleman who can preserve in private life the simple and quiet be- havior of one. A gentleman should bt himself-that is, a sine qua non of the character-and, as rule, he should not have any keen anxiety upon the question of what you think of him An actors business, on the other hand is to be somebody else.-E. s.
