DISTRICT MAGISTRATE WHITNEY
FINDS FOR DEFENDANT IN
MILLS VS.. AYRES.

Judge Whitney yesterday afternoon
in district court gave decision for de-
PENDANT in II. T. Mills VS.. H. M. Ayres.
Mills sued Ayres as being liable for
$132 alleged to be due Wall Nichols
for printing the Sunday Eagle in 1883,
which claim Mr.. Wall testified to sell
to Mills for So and other considerations.
Attorney Frank Thompson represent
ed Ayres and Mills handled his own
case. Mr. wall stated that Ayres had
paid dollar or two on account, which
was denied. The superscription on the
copies Of the Eagle produced showed
that II. NJ. Ayres and w. f. Sabn
had b9en joint editors and publishers
and, Sabin testified to the partnership
of equal profits. losses and labor.
Mills forgot himself in summing up,
saying it was not likely that "A re-
putable firm like Wall, Nichols would
come into court and misrepresent the
facts Attorney Thompson like a shot
remarked that he did not know that
Wall Nichols was bringing suit, Mills
having sworn i'm the complaint that he
had purchased the claim.
Judge Whitney decided that the suit
should not have been brought against
Ayres when Ayres and Sabin were
partners. Mills claimed that the part
nership had not been registered, but
the court found that the parties direct
ly concerned were well aware OF the
partnership existing when negotatings
were made for the printing of the pa
per Costs of So were assessed to
Mills.
Mr. Mills during the hearing, OBJ
served newspaper man making
sketches. At once assuming that he
was being sketched he threatened to
knock the head off the pencil pusher
should he dare publish a caricature Of
him.

At Carmel, N. Y, ain indian girl is
being tried for murder. She is Jen-
ME Burch, fourteen years of age, and
is charged with having poisoned the
two-year-od baby of Wilbur Winshp.
Her father is Philo Burch, half breed
descendant of a Mohawk chief, who
will spend his all to save the girl from
the electric chair. The child is typi-
cal of the aboriginal people whose
blood flows in her veins, being stoIlo
taciturn and Unconditional. A peach
filled with tsrychnine is supposed to
have been the vehicle of murder and a
strange part of the story is the love
borne by the child for the baby, whose
nurse she was. Murder was supposed
to have been done by the girl because
she faered her charge was to be taken
from her and insanity will be the de-
tense. Unusual sympathy has been
voiced for the little Indian girl be-
cause it is generally believed that she
committed the crime while under an
insane impulse.

In a small town politics, town gov

public improvement are so closely al
lied with individuals that the small
public mind cannot see the difference
between unfolding a principle of right
and attacking some prominent per-
son in the town. There is at
any time, enough of a kind to marshal
a contingent of public opinion to the
aid of the newspaper, though there
are always plenty of people to come
out and claim the victory after the
mas won it. The editor who
makes a battle for any question of
abstract right in a country own is
left to fight the battle alone. What q
little town wants is not editorials cal

to have its editor cater to the finan-
cial wants of its n OF two leading

the editor and is inclined to lake the
narrow personal view of his utter

find more profit and popularity in tell

The esteemed Artesia News is mis-
taken in asserting that the Daily Rec
ord is trying to line up with the new
governor. The Record stands just as
it stood during the Hagerman admin
istration, in favor of better and more
economical Territorial government.
In taking this stand we have wen in
CURED the bitter enmity of some Of
the Democratic county officials of our
own county-not that we had anything
against them personally, but because
we have pronounced the salaries paid
certain county officers beyond all rea-
son. If Curry stands for the interests
of all the taxpayers aid not merely
for the politicians n ~tax-eaters, then
he will have lined up with the Record.
As for the war dance held by the
"Old Settlers" Mr.. Curry probably
knows all the details better than the
Artesia News Or any other paper in
the Territory could tell him. That sim
ply has nothing to do with our posi-
ton on any question of politics, re-
ligion or government. We concede ev-
cry mdn Vne IfSnl 10 MS OWN opihioIS'
and presume that Curry will be gov
erned in all his administrative acts
by considerations of the general pub
lie good, and not by petty spites and
jealousies. His attitude toward the ed

sonally will not make the slightest
difference in the policy of the paper.

ment regardless of Individual men or
parties.
