Gals Oh course, anybody VINO knows |
anything about politics, especially in 4
New Mexico, knows that the fiattery, |
the soft SOAP" the seemingly full
some editorials and the like which \
appear in New Mexico Democratic
papers concerning Republicans, be
they officials or private citizens, are
balderdash, not containing an iota
of true and sincere meaning and sim
ply written and published for SIMS
ter n selfish Democratic party pur-
poses. With the New Mexican and
other Republican papers in New
Mexico, this paper is gratifed to say
it is different.
For instance, right here, this pa
per is perfectly willing to admit that
Harvey B. Ferguson, while a Demo
cratic delegate to congress-, made a
very good record. This paper also
admits and also states freely that
the same can justly be said of the
services of Antonio Joseph while
delegate to congress-. In fact, it has
said so quite a number of times when
occasion arose. Today when it is
well known and established that Del
egate w. H. Andrews has performed
yeoman, valuable, efficient and ener-
getic service in the first session of
the 59th Congress for the people Of
the Sunshine Territory, no Demo
cratic paper has had the courage, the
decency and the fairness so far to
fact-Santa Fe New Mexican.
The Record thought the New Mex
notices of Democratic officials in
Chaves county, and re-published it's
comments with approval. We are sor-
ry indeed if the New Mexican has
been misunderstood and really did
not mean what it said and was only
feeding our friends on "soft soap"
The Record has even been accus-
ed of Republican leanings by some
ing complimentary things about Re
publicans,-especially about Cover
-, Il L-- -o-ra -;-o-
of honesty and the intention to give
the Territory a business administra-
ton. The Record a lots of faith
in Republican Delegate Rodey, too
but must draw the line at Andrews,
and charitably drop the veil over
Otero who is no more, politically
speaking. AT any rate, if the Record
sal anything nice about Andrews,
it would be only 'fulsome f1attery,"
according to the New Mexican. So.
WHAT'S the USE?
But the New Mexican asserts that
it is honest in what it says-while
all Democratic papers are liars.
Strange, isn't it, hat the good
things the Democratic papers say
about Governor Hagerman should
create strife in the Republican par
ty.' There must be somebody in the
Republican party fighting the COVER
/ nor, and opposed to having anything
| complimentary said abou MIN. Won
der why it makes the New Mexican,
Mr.. Bursum and other members of
the old gang mad to have the peo-
| pie express approval of the governor.
Lacking sincerity and fairness it
self, the New Mexican of course
thinks everybody else guilty of
| trickery and deception. Candor.
frankness and simple honesty-with-
out secret whisperings and petty
| scheming or bluff and bluster-the
| old Republican gang cannot compre-
bend. To be ignored where once he
| was the whole court is too much for
the editor of the New Mexican, and
so he relieves his distress by cussing
| the Democratic papers.

RAILROAD IN HIGHLAND.

An engineer corps has been in High
land county for some months looking
for line from w. Va. eastward. The
auspices under which they were sent
out seems not to be known. They are
supposed to be sent ont by the Davis
and Elk inc interests, and this may be
true. Last week Mr.. Henry &. Davis.
Mr.. r q. Kerens and Col. John J..
McGraw took horses, so the dispatchts
say, and rode from Webster Springs
up Elk river into P0cahontas county,
reaching the railroad at Glover Lick.
This for a mau in his eighties, IS MIR.
Davis is, would seem as if he had
something 10 view. A line from Gas
saway on Elk to connection with the
g. & O.. at Sitlington, or Glover Lick,
or Marlinton, is not by half so gigan
tic a PROPOSE ion as the road from Par
SOILS up Black water to Hendricks.
which was the fl st road Mr. Davis
ever built, nor indeed over the Ale
ghaDy mountain to Back Greek in
Highland county. But trouble begins
at the top of Allegheny mountain and
from there into the Valley of Virginia
the line is one of difficulty and great
cost. We worked that out fully when
with the Chesapeake W estern Rail
way. We have heard that MIR. EikinS
sent engineers into Highland county
four years ago to survey line from
the head of Greenbrier river in Poca-
hOntas county across the Allegheny
into Highland by Monterey east to
HarTisonbuIg. and gave them no limI
tatiOn save that they must keep within
a certain grade. His engineer worked
faithfully and went over and over
every iuch of ground, aud when he had
been over it told Mr.. Elklns that such
line was possible, but that it was
much like digging the Panama canal.
This OF course ended matters for a
while, but this is the day of railway
building. Over 20 600 miles of new
road are now under construction in
the United States, and this means much
more. There is ali open way through
II Highland for railroad. Lying as it
does about midway between the T. go.
and b. u D. there is ample room for
through line equal in possibilities to
either, but the mountains are high,
the tunnels will be long, and the cuts
and fills in some places enormous, Yet
it should come. 1t has always been
our belief, however, as we said of P0
cahontas county. that the first line to
be built will be Il NORTH ana south llUe.
We believe Highland county will be
first developed by line from Romney
to CovingtOn, which is easy, feasible.
and inviting. 1t would give ample
facilities 10 the County anu do more
for it. we think, than any cross line
could. Highland should always Work
for this, and let an east and west line
go for the time being.

this should be accomplished MIR. Harri-

Judge Tbayer Melvin of the 1st w.
Va. District, while holding court at
Wellsburg. w. Va. last week, was
paralysed and died shortly thereafter
There are some persons in Steunton
who remember to have seen Judge
Melvin in Staunton on one occasion.

Rangers made midnight raid into
Cum be Rand, Md, ard captured two
Yankee generals, Geuerals Crook and
Kelly, ard also a staff flicer of one Of
there These WHO remember their BIZ

that news OF this remarkable capture
had reached Staunton during the day
before their arrival. In he afternoon
belonging to the celebrated James A..
Trotter Who is feueIn bpred by most
everyb body Of that day as The 'presi-
dent" OF various stage lines running
in and cut of ,Stauntop, came rolling
down Augusta street. o.. top of 1t
were some Confederate soldiers who
were guards, within were three gen
tlemen IN blue. The stage balted in
front of what we Then knew as the
Bleds0e store building at the entrance
of what is now Johnson street, then
Irish Alley. In this building was Gen.
Jnbal A. EaIlyis headquarters. The
soldiers Oil top of the stage bad some
Union flags which had been captured
at the same time and these they had
unfurled and they waved them as the
stage passed down the street. The
whole occasion WAS enc of intense in
terest. A crowd OF Confederate officers
and citizens gathered about the stage
and witnessed the alightirg and pass
ing into Gen. Earl, s headquarters of
the gentlemen in blue aid their escort.
The most imposing Of the three was a
tall young sidewbiskered staff officer,
whose natty dress and stately bearing
led many to believe be was one of the
generals. This was the late Judge
Melvin. He was, as we found out af-
ward. as splendid man as mis- ap-
pearance then indicated. After the
war be Was elected time and again to
the Office Of Judge of the Wheeling
circuit, the opposing party not even
putting up a candidate against him.
so popular was be with both parties.
1t may be Of some interest to recall
that Gems Crook and Kelly were in
command of forces at Cumberland.
Md. LIZ the night some OF Men eei's
Rangers who were familiar with the
town and the houses where they were
quartered, went into their apartm ente
in disguise, made them and Judge Mel
win prisoners, brought them out,
mounted them on horses and carried
them into the Confederate lines. No
more daring feat was accomplished
during the war and no men were more
chagrinned than were these generals
at their sudden and ignominious down
fall, and their commands were like
wise so by reason of their stupidity in
not detecting the ruse before its pur
pose was accomplished The next
morning found the two Divisions
without commanders, and two Division
commanders within the lines of the
enemy, prisoners Of war. This was the
only visit Judge Melvin ever paid
