In the examination of a juror, touch
ing his qualifications to serve in the
Tucker murder case, Thos. B. Catron,
attorney for the defendants, asked
whether the juror was a Republican
or a Democrat. 1t seems to us that
it is a matter of little Importance
whether a nan is a Republican or a
Democrat, a Catholic or a Methodist,
when it comes to serving on a jury
where he is sworn to try the case ac-
cording to the law and the evidence.
1t is time that the courts in New Mex
leo were conducted entirely without
reference to politics. There is no poll
tics in justice, and it is gratifying to
know that the tendency has been to
eliminate politics from the courts. 1t
is the duty of all good citizens to lend
heir assistance to this end, whether
they be members of the bar Dr. not.
1t is not necessary to determine a
mans politics in order to ascertain
whether he would make a good juror,

FAKE
From Albuquerque Advertiser.

From Albuquerque Advertiser.
Every now and then the merchants
of the town-or rather we ought to
say, some of the merchants of the
town-are taken in and done for by
fake advertising schemes, which are
worked by wandering adventurers.
Bar1um, the great Snowman, declared
that the american people like to be
h~umbugged," and he grew rich by
making use of his information. These
advertising fakirs make money in the
same way, by playing their game on
the unsophisticated. The mar who has
been sold once is hardly ever taken
in again by the same scheme, but the
fakirs know that, and are constantly
inyenting new schemes. And there
are also e dealers going into bust
ness all the time, and they serve to
keep up the stock of material to be
worked upon, AID as was remarked
a day or two ago by a gentleman who
is just now working a scheme which
is very attractive to the unwary,
There's never a total failure of the
sucker crop" But every sucker" who
is caught sends just hat much more
money out of the country, and thus
hurts by nat much his own business
as well as that of everyone else who
is doing business il the town. the
only proper thing to give h wander
ing advertising fakir, is the cold
shoulder.

The Record is informed that all the
artesian wells of the city tnat are
provided with fire hydrants- nave four
inch connections with the well, but
that for the use of the old hand en-
CINE reducers were put or every one
of the pipes so that the end of the
pipe to which the steamer now on
meets is only three inches in dame
ter. sA every schoolboy knows, the
ratio of a three-inch to a four-inch
pipe is 8 to 16-that is to say, a
three-inch pipe a only nine-six-
teenths the capacity of a four-ilcn
pipe. BY taking off these reducers so
that a four-inch connection can be
made with the steamer, the capacity
of every fire hydrant in h city can
be nearly doubled.

A speaker before the National Irri-
cation Congress at Sacramento made
this statement: Il would not attempt
to cultivate land outside of the arid
region. 1 feel certain that in no part
of the Ulited States can the staple
products of the soil be so cheaply
grown. In no other part of the coun-
try is the soil so rich, the climate so
agreeable and so well adapted to the
outdoor occupations of man." And the
man who said it was one of the best
known irrigation and farming experts
in the country. It is the gospel truth,
but it must sound queer to some east
erners with fixed opinions.-EI Paso

special order for Monday has to be
carried over on account of the house
not re-cOnvening until $50 in the al
ternOOn, and the second day will be
left free to clean up the calendar.
Wednesday morning the house will
return to the consideration of Gov
ernOr BrOward's message returning
without his approval the bill passed
toward the close of the last legiSla-
ture inStTucting the board of trustees
of the Internal Improvement Fund TO
turn over the moneys in their posses

urer, who is a member of the board.
The reason assigned in the governors

control or direction of the moneys of

legislature can abolish the board of
trustees. though what in that event
would become of the trust itself, is
a question, but there is division in
sentiment as to the respective rights

board of trustees at present, and this
will be the battle ground. But there

of the same day. Bradford states that
il was not given to him until April
Il. five days afterwards and that the
letter had Oeen torn open before Pratt
handed it to him At the same time
he was given another letter which
had been torn open, addressed TO
him by J. A Mansell, a compositOr,
on the New Orleans Picayune, mailed
in New Orleans on April 9 and con
tanning IS. This letter was evidently
delayed in its delivery like the one
from BradfOTd's sister. The sending
pOstmark is the only one on the en-
velOpe, although there should be the
receiving stamp Of the Mortimer Of
fee.
Bradford Free, Helps Partner.
When Bradford got away from the
Greer camp he came to Mobile, and
his first thought was to help Thayer
TO liberty. He obtained some more
money and enclosing S14 in currency
in an envelope addressed it to
Thayer. registering and mailing the
letter in this city on April 16. He
has the returned registry receipt now
in his possession, showing by the
Mortimer postmark that it reached
there on April 10, but it was not
given to Thayer until April 20, the
day he paid out. and it had been
opened before he received it. The
receipt returned to Mobile is signed
not by Thayer, but by j. S. Pratt.
1t is on account of the opening of
the registered mail that Bradford and
Thayer have included this charge in
the number that they will ask the
United States district attorney to
make to the grand jury in application
for indictments today.
Thayer made his appeal as a British
subject to Washington in a letter
from the Greer stOckade and he has
good reason 10 think that the letter
was destroyed This will also be
placed before the United States au-
thOrities and Thayer announces that
he will seek NiCe-COnsul Hunter in

before him.

The Mighty Fallen.
Whether there is any bad luck in
the mystic number %" or not. let
the magician say, the fact remains
that there are today just tWenty-thTee
times the number of counties in
Florida as there were when Andrew
Jackson. military governor, first and
only governor of Florida TO be eleva-
ted to the presidency of the United
States, had divided the territory of
Florida into two counties the part
lying west of the Suwannee river he
designated as EscambIa, the part
TO the east and south ST. Johns. How
are the mighty fallen, and the
weapons of war perIshed," For
while amongst the most important OF
the counties today in many ways, the
counties which today bear those
names are not among the largest in
area, and it so happens that all OF
the new counties which this legisIa-
tUre will be asked to create, will be
carved from counties which once had
