GETTING SCARED.

The rabidly Democratic Carls-
bad Current is very much fright
ened over the splendid gains
made by the Republicans in the
Pecos Valley on Tuesday of last
week from the vote on the Dele
gate to Congress down to the
vote on surveyor, and it says
editorially; THE gains made by
the Republican ticket in Eddy
county this year, indicate that
the Democrats will have to look
a little out from now on. For
the next election the Republicans
are undoubtedly making prepa-
rationS for a better showing and
with the prestige given them by
the gain, whether it be pelma-
nent or transitory from the ma
ture of this lately passed con-
test, they will enter the next
fight with better heart than ever
before. The history of Republic
canism shows that they never
lay down nor ever cease every
effort to gain control wherever
there is a ghost of a show. >"
Well may the PecoS Valley Dem
ocratS whimper, for under the
leadership of Chairman Bursum
and National Committeeman Sol
ONION Luna and with a Delegate
in Congress who does things"
the Republican party is more
strongly intrenched in public
favor than ever before. ,

REVISION Of THE LAWS.

The time for a thorough re.
vision of the laws of New Mexi-
co has arrived and the 9th Leg
iSlative ASSEMBLY should pro-
vide for such revision. 1t is very
necessary to enable citizens gen.
orally to know what duties ale
required of them. New Mexi-
lean.
Commenting upon this the
Lordsburg Liberal remarks:
The New Mexican suggests
that the next legislature APP
point a committee of men wise
in the law to revise the statutes
of the Territory. The present
compilation of laws contains
many contradictions, many laws
that are practically dead, anC
are so mixed up that often the
lawyers and the judges cannot
decide just what is the law il
certain particulars. If the vol
ume should be properly revised
the dead matter struck out, thu
contradictory matter made con.
sistent, and new laws suggested
to fill certain vacancies, it woulC
be much easier for the people t
know what is law, and what i.
not. 1t certainly is a duty tina
the Legislature owes to thu
people.
