1.-THE MERCHANT OF VENICE"
Large Audience Sees Daniel Ryan in
 shakesperian Character.
ClhcoRPoRAIES1 OPP. THE TOWN PUMP

SnaKeSpef1hn CIaFaCLeF,
 Daniel Ryan and his company play ed Shakespeare Merchant of Venice be- fore a full house at the New Haven theater last evening. MT. Ryan took the part of shylock, and his portrayal of that avaricious Hebrew was a re- markably truthful one. His interpre- tation of the part was a reminder of that of the late Richard Mansfield. MT. Shylock as in no other part which MT. Ryan plays, he has an opportunity of showing his really great ability as an actor Without question he is one of the country's greatest actors.
 The company supporting Mir. Ryan is not quite as ggod as might be expect ed, but that is overshadowed by his really great acting power,
 Supporting MT. Ryan were w. J. Bowen who played the part of Antonio the Merchant of Venice, Alfred Sven, son as Bassanio, S. F. Cairus as Grat- iano, and F. Tidemarch as Lorenzo. J. B. Whitenan as Launcelot Gohbo Shylock's servant, was exceedingly clever. Miss Phyllis Gilmore, as Portia was very effective in the court scene, Miss Lorle Palmer as Jessica, played the part very acceptably
 MT. Ryan was given several curtain calls, and his work was appreciated by his audience, his every appearance or the stage being greeted by applause,
 This afternoon MT, Ryan and his company will repeat the Merchant ot Venice, and tonight Monte Cristo will be given.

About o'clock this evening all tho
 electric lights on the down commercial
 circuit went suddenly out. The proba- ble cause was the failure of down ktown transformer to work Superin- tendent Pierce and Lineman Cooper were called and were soon at work en- deavoring to find the cause of the. trouble. The lights in the hall where the Court p. R. Wallace bazar was being held went out with the rest and caused great disappointment to the
 people who were attending the affair. The stores were forced to resort to candles and other ancient forms of artificial light, as only very small
 portion of them are equipped with the gas service. The light swere turned
 on again at S:15 p. m,., much to the joy of many.

WHO WAS "N ~

Regardless of the fact that The
Optic has not been "in" on the pub
lie printing. it has every confidence
in the present legislature. That there
should be remedial Legislation affect.
ing the public printing is conceded
by everybody. The Office of public
printer should be abolished. A maxi
mum price for all work should be es-
tablished and the placing of contracts
could well be one by some Terrific
rial official without additional salary.
This legislature has already demon
strated hat it is destined to go down
into history as one of the most eco
nomical ever in the Territory, and
the people can rest assured that the
pruning knife will be used at every
opportunity.-Las Vegas Optic.
In the face of the fact that James
McNary. then editor of the Optic,
was made public printer by the form
e. governor and that Mr.. Frost, in
office Mr.. McNary had the
printing done, asserts that he has re-
allied no profits from it, it would
solve a mystery if the a who
knows would tell WHO WAS I'm"

RATES.

While the Morning Journal does
railway matters, it is firmly colvinc-
ed that the great Santa Fe system
stands much in it's own light by charg
ing the people of this territory freight
rates which are much higher than
they ought to be. This policy is We
ry wrong morally Inc commercially.
on that it is wrong for a highway
man to take your money because he
h a the drop on you, and it is al
so wrong commercially because it
is more than the traffic will bear"
without diminishing the traffic and pa
ralyzing the development of the coun-
try.
We have no sympathy with whatev-
er with the wild schemes which are
devised for the purpose of "ci1ching''
friendly to railways in general, be-
in our opinion, they are to the
state what the arteries are to the hui
man body, and we are especially
friendly to the Santa Fe road, be-
it is the only tie that binds our
section to the rest of the civilized
world. Though we ask nothing Of
the score of friendship, for we know
that business is business" but at the
same time we know it is not '1busi-
ness" in any sense of the word for
a o which runs through the coun-
try to charge rates high enough to
parafyze the development of the cou1
try. because its growth of business
must depend upon the growth of the
country.
This is a matter which the mer
chants of Albuquerque eel very keen
ly and we are fully convinced that
if the able men at the head of the
Santa Fe railway would give the mat
ter that consideration which its i'm
portance deserves, they would very
promptly order some radical changes
in the freight rates affecting this
section of the country. Among other
things they would learn that for a car
of freight loaded at a given point ami

ONLY A

There are many people in Roswell,
no doubt. who sincerely and honestly
believe that the Record is wrong in
criticising the legislature, thinking
of the danger of the appropriation for
the Military Institute being cut off
But please remember hat it is by
just such threats as this that the old
machine has been maintained through
out the Territory. 1t has also threat
ened- to cut on the appropriation for
the University at Albuquerque, and
interested politicians there who were
downed by an independent citizens
movement last fall, are now using
this threat to work up sentiment ag
ainst the Albuquerque Journal and

Negroes Attend Nebraska Ball.

Alliance, Neb., Feb. 26.-Two ne,
groes, wearing costumes of Chinese
mandarin and Sunny Jim, attended
a white ball at Hyannis, a little town
sixty miles east of here, and their
discovery caused great excitement
which threatens a race war. The aft
air was given by the social elect of
Hyannis and all the dancers we're re-
quired to be masked. The negroes,
who were walters at a local hotel
were ~assiduous and courtly in their
attentions to the young ladies present
none of whom suspected their identi-
ty until the time for unmasking. Then
the blacks attempted to escape from
the hall, but were compelled to re-
move their disguise. Then came the
a and curses, followed by the
threats of lynching, but the intruders
succeeded in cutting their way out
with razors. A thorough search is be
ing made for the negroes and if they
are captured will probably be harsh
ly treated for their escapade.

was Friend of Roosevelt.

Washington, D. c., Feb. 26.-It has
developed that A. Oscar Smith, the
bareback rider who was killed during
the performance of a Wild Vest show
at San Antonio, Texas, was a friend
of President Roosevelt, having been
n OF the piai1smen who accompan-
led the President on his famous bear
hunt in Colorado. They boy became
a great favorite with the chief execu,
tive, who urged him to pay a visit at
the White HOUSE when he came to
Washington. The president was great
ly shocked at the tragic death of Mr..
Smith who was killed while perform
ing a daring feat on the back of a
diving horse, which plunged off a 40
foot platform into a tank of water.

to be fought some time, and fought
to a finish It is well begun, and
nothing will be gained by deserving
@ cause of good government at this
late hour. The facts should be pub
lished in full and as fairly as posi-
Bile. The people nave a right to know
what their representatives in the
legislature are doing. As for mere
opinions, every man is free to believe
our opinions or form his own opi1-
ions. The Record has r~e-published
some articles from other papers that
in their nature, and possibly such re-
publication W a ~illadvised. But the
Record itself has not INDUCED in any
mere personalities, except in play
full humor with Col. Frost. of the New
Mexican, who has we believe called
us every hard name that was ever
invented. He talks sometimes as tho
he were actually mad at the Record
we do not believe it. The
Colonel is after larger game. We al
so believe hat he would not do any
thing to actually i1jure the New
Mexico Military Institute if he could.
That he has beer and still is a pow
er in New Mexico politics must be
admitted-and certainly he is not
such a fool as to attempt the destruc-
ton of the Territory's leading educa-
tional institution for mere spite. He
is a wise enough politician to know
a boomerang when he sees it. He
also knows just what is the best
scarecrow to use on each community.

The interview of County Treasurer
Lea published Wednesday, Feb. 20,
in the Record, distinctly said: This

at Santa Fe, and l only give their
arguments to show the way they talk
about Roswell's young men who are
in such high positions at Santa Fe."
Mr.. Lea also said: There are nc
