FACING THE FACTS.

The New Mexican, is usual, mis-
quotes the Record in saying that we
are crying for a government for the
white people," But let it go at that,
since the purpose of the m~isquotation
goes to prove that the New Mexican's
only hope is to arouse race prejudice
in the men who have heretofore been
bought and sold, voted and used to
carry out the schemes of the old gang
of grafters. But we also are crying
for good government for Mexicans,
negroes and Indians as we'll as White
men. Intelligent, educated and hon
est Mexicans, too. are crying for good
government, and for the release of
their illiterate and simpler brethren
from slavery and fear of the blacklist
gang of political freebooters thai ever
terroriZed any state or territory of
the Union. The worst enemies of the
Mexican population are the men who
take advantage OF their simplicity to
corrupt the government of the Terri
tory Let us face the facts. There is

are bought and sold like sheep-but
it is not these men we blame for bad
government. 1t is the men who, in
stead of teaching the natives the du-
ties and responsibilities of American
citizenship. keep them in ignorance
and terror so that the grafters may
continue in control. Until the natives
are freed from the influence of such
men and taught to use their power
for good government, New Mexico
will never be given statehood, nor
does she deserve it. The Ulited
States is somewhat more important
than the Territory of New Mexico,
and the people of this Territory must
bring themselves up nearer to Ameri-
can ideals before they can expect to
be entrusted with a fair share in the
heritage of American freedom and
independence.

Something Will Happen.

Almost every paper in the territory
is making a strong n persistent fight
for a law for the suppression of gamb-
ling. The fac hat the territory has
and does grant licenses to carry on
this most useless. and vicious of all
callings, is a blight on our civilization
New Mexico has an ~up-to-date set of
people n if this law is o passed
something will happen to the set of
solons who are now holding down the
jobs at Santa Fe.-Urtol Record.

A CHANGE

1t is popular belief, founded upon
more or less sound reason that the
Legislators are sent to the capitol once
in a while to do the will of the PEG
pie il the enactment # laws. If this
belief can with any justice be held n
corning the present legislature of the
territory, that body will not hesitate
in the matter of passing some law
that will insure the placing of compe-
tent educators in the office of county
schools superintendent. The people
realize the crying absurdity of permit
ting this important office to be filled
by men of all grades of intelligence
and of all trades and professions. 1t
may be said, We'll. the people have
the power of electing superintendent,
why don't they elect the right kind of
men for the place" 1t is very well
known that many of the counties of
the territory are so fully dominated
by political machines that the people
have very little voice in the nomina-
ton of candidates. States are fixed
by a few leaders before any convention
is held and the man who has the poll
tical pull gets the Office. Some of the
counties. it is true elect good men for
superintendent, n in such cases
the progress of the public schools
has been decidedly marked. There
can be no doubt but it is a waste of
money to fill the Office with men who
know nO+hiuo Of nuhIio school work
The only way to insure good men is
to enact legislation fixing the qualifi-
cations of the official.

A QUESTION OE WORK.

All useful work is honorable. But
for some reason which nobody but a
woman can understand, many girls
who really need the money they might
earn absolutely refuse to do house
work, and prefer TO crowd men out
of their jobs at something else. Re

a kindness to offer one of them a
place in his household to assist his
daughter in her work. The man of
the tent was absent, doing some kind
of teaming or other common labor at
which he makes probably forty dollars
a month. The mother of the girls,
however, brew up her hands in hor-
ror, and asserted that her husband
would never let one of his daugh-
tiers work out" None of the girls APP
peared to be very well dressed-in
fact they were described as ragged"
and the probability is that they knew
very little about housekeeping or
cookery. 1t might have been of great
advantage to any one of them to be
taken into a comfortable home where

The lower house of h legislature
has voted to exclude the correspondent
of the Albuquerque Journal from the
floor and galleries, for criticising that

presume that the Record correspon-

shall continue to publish the news
from the capital just the same, aid
no doubt the Journal will also be a
warmer publication than before. We
cannot do justice to the subject today.

As a Democrat, the Record editor
believes in high license and strict
regulation of saloons-but if there
is anything that would colver him
temporarily into a Prohibitionist, it
would be an effort of the saloon men
to dominate political affairs and pur-
chase legislation in favor of licensed
gambling. Get the people once thor
oughly aroused against the plan of
the liquor dealers to defeat the anti
gambling bill. and they will not stop
until the saloons also are wiped out.

sentiment may be in other portions
of the Territory. but this is a Texas

they try to dictate Legislation in the

Maine News Notes.

Four men cracked the safe in the
Brownville post Office early Tuesday
morning, and carried off about 500 in
money and 5000 in stamps. The first
reports of the affair which were sent out
stated that the act was witnessed by
half dozen citizens, some of whom
were armed; but according to the officers
it was only some badly scared women
who saw them.
William D. Blethen, proprietor of the
Blethen House at Dover, and one of the
best known hotel men in Maine, was
found on the shore of stream in bis
pasture Monday. He had gone there to
fish the day before, and as he did not
return searching party was organized.
Death was evidently due to apOplexy,
and no inquest was considered necessary.
Mr.. Bethen was 10 years of age.
CDR" and Mrs. Paul Castor were
found guilty of completely In the famous
Cashier jewel robbery In Portland Tues
day. The doctor, who Is serving SEN
tence in state prison on another charge,
was brought from Thomaston for the
trial. The principals In the case, who
claim to have acted at Castor's instiga-
ton, told very straight story of the
affair on he stand. Castor was sem
fenced to FIVE years in state prison and
Mrs. Castor to four years.

at top about five inches, with much
larger bottom. 1t looks as II it might
