time until the date of his death in 1868 he
represented Taos County in the territorial

To incite the greasers to rebellion against
the American Government, which they hated,

them to abandon the Catholic Church. which

his immortality To the circumstances of
Archbishop Lamy and other church digni-
taries, he returned insulting and arrogant re-
plies: and in 1854 he was communicated.
Barred from the church in which he had so
long ministered, he promptly formed an in
dependent organization Of his own, and was
followed by his parishioners almost to a man.
Several other renegade priests affiliated them
selves with Martinez, and for time it seemed
as if dangerous Schism in the Catholic Church
of the Southwest would result.
However, Martinez died in 1867, and, for
lack of competent leader, the organization
of which he was the head fell to pieces, and
its members soon returned to the ancient fold.
Nothing but the ruins of Martinez's church
remain at Taos; and his body lies in the
cemetery half mile away.

At times in the last ten years there have
been feverish futterings among the scattered
men, vague hope that the regiment might
be assembled once more. When the allies
were on their way to Picking, when their old
Colonel was responding the Monroe doc
trine to the Germans apropos of Venezuelan
troubles, and when Japan was strutting after
the San Francisco school and riot troubles,
there was talk of the Rough Riders taking the
field again: but now nearly ten good years
have gone by and the chance for fighting IS
not in sight. Men who were free to enlist in
'o8 have become encountered in the processes
of peace and could not go.
There was never another such body of men
under arms. Their opportunity came, and
they rose to it, and they stand ensconced in
the gilded pinnacle of fame; but they know
now, and admit it sadly among themselves,
in the little groups that still cling together
that the Rough Riders can never follow their
old Colonel again: They will mount and ride
no more. There is nothing left but to talk it
over. the last word marked by sigh for what
can never return.

Padre Martinez's Reign
THIS Feuda1 Empire of the Southwest has
had its Lords Spiritual. as well as its
Lords Temporal. Greatest of the former was
priest of Taos, already mentioned as the earliest
contestant of the land grant made to Beaubien
and Miranda. He set at defiance the thunders
of the church, waged war against the American
narrowest of margins, became a political leader
in New Mexico, and at his death was pro-
nounced by resolution of the territorial As.
sembly, an honor to his place and country"
Padre Martinez was born in 1898 IN Rio
Arriba County, Northern New Mexico, a son
his day and generation in the service of the
Kings of Spain. He and his brother, Don
Pascua1 Martinez, Captain of the Rurales,
were always regarded as superior beings by
the poems and poorer classes generally; and
when Antonio became priest of the Roman
Catholic Church his ascendancy was complete.
To the prestige given by the great wealth and
military glory of his family. and the sanctity
cast round his person by the church. were
bleness, and consideration that he always
showed the poor, needy, oppressed. and suffer-
ing. Little wonder that the native population
came to adore him, and that his commands
nullifed alike the laws of the land and the de-
crees of the church, when he saw fit to antag-
onize either church or government
The act of Padre Martinez that has made
him the object of the undying hatred of Ameri-
cans in the Southwest was the instigation of
the uprising of Mexicans and Indians, known
as the Revolution of 1847, which eliminated in
the Taos massacre. He was always bitterly
opposed to American rule, possibly because he
felt that the introduction of American ways
and institutions would bring to close the
virtual dictatorship, temporal as well as
sDiritua1 that he eniOVed in that part of the
Territory. 1t is not believed, however, that
he countenanced the massacre of Americans
which marked the climax of the rebellion. The
natives tasted blood; and then, like hounds,

GOOD GOVERNMENT
LEAGUE IN FIELD
Executive Committee TO Consid=
er Plans for Framing a
Complete Ticket

The first gun in the campaign of the
Good Government league for the COM
ing fall elections will be fired next
Thursday, when the executive commit
tee will meet and discuss plans for put
ting a complete Good Government ticket
in the field. At the meeting it is con-
sidered possible that five superior
judges viii be nominated by the league
and placed upon a ticket, and all the
league candidates may be chosen before
those Of any of the other parties.
1t is the present intention of the
league to introduce what is likely to
prove a startling innovation to some of
the old line politicians by securing a
record of every candidate for every
city, county and state Office, whether it
IS good or bad. and publishing it broad
cast for the information of the voters.
This is something that has never been
done on so thorough a plan in San
Francisco. Whether a similar course
VIII be pursued with regard to candi-
dates for the legislature has not yet
been settled, but indications are favor
able for its adoption.
At the meeting Thursday a campaign
committee of five members will be Sc
of the league during the campaign. A
full plan Of action viii be discussed at
the meeting. 1t has been proposed to
call upon the different political parties
TO appoint delegates on a conference
committee to meet with delegates from
the league and discuss the merits OF
respective candidates for superior
judge, and such a course will be seri-
ously considered before any Of these
candidates are indorsed by the league

LONDON SHOWS INTEREST

LONDON, July I0.-The London news
papers anticipate an interesting con-
test for the presidency of the United
States.
The Daily Chronicle regards Bryan s
policy as being the same as that of
President Roosevelt, and says il is a
question of which of the candidates
shall be entrusted with its execution.
The Daily Graphic says: There is
no serious political issue; IL will be ex-
ciusively a question of persons"
The Saturday Review suggests that
the Nebraskan may obtain support from
the Pacific slope by the adoption OF
Congressman Hobsons naval views.
The Times, in an editorial says:
Bryan never has had the opportunity
OF showing whether he possesses capa-
bility for constructive work, and his
speeches and writings seem to be
deficient in originality and statesman
