A time may come In New Mexico when It tuny be fcasnblo mid Just to plnco this fund In the gonornl sohoolifnnd mid distribute it ns tho pending bill calls for, but III our estimation that tlmo has not nrrlved ns yet. Thero nro of course two sides to tho question, bnt while wo bollcvo tho distribu tion of tho fund as this bills friends would wish, would bo probably the cnuso of moro poor seboolB throughout tho Territory, It Would cnuso tho deterioration tf many good ones, nnd would not bo the cnuso of a slnnlc one being grndod higher. The Bantn Fo Sun, on recent udvltics from Washington, an nounces that "stntohood Is rcnlly dead for Ibis session of Congress." This Is unquestionably true. In ftiut thero has never been any real vitality in tho statehood move ment. The Ukadmuht lias been Insisting for tho past thrco years, that Now Mexico would not bo admitted till 1803. nor till tho Domoerntlo parly eamo ngiiin into control of tho Government, nnd that it would bo admitted then. All tho preieuso of Ilepubllenn congressmen and sonntors of fav oring the admission of this Terri tory, with few individual excep tions, has been a sham. More over, tho Territory has not been In n condition to warrant admis sion. Hut the Laud Court mid tho School Law, now in active operation, are preparing Now Mexico for a dlgiillled, rcspoct able, responsible statehood. Tho process of ndmleslon will bo prac tically complete nt the oud of this year 18U3. Thoro bus beon for several weeks a good deal of talk about tho removal of both tlio Territori al capital mid tho Petiltontlnry from Santa Uo by the prcsonl Legislature.

Vho transfer to tho War De partment wilt bo n very great gain. In tho first plnco. the ox potiso of these pensions Is a war expense.

An additional ndvnntngo to which moro weight la given in tho discussion Is tho possibility of gutting tho Tension system out of politics with an unity officer nt tho bond of tho bureau. This will dopoud very largely on who tlio nrmy ofllcor Is, for It is possible, oroourso, that tho bureau may convert him Into n politician in stead of bis converting tho bit roan away from politics. It is not to bo doubted however, that President Cleveland will be nblo to llud tho tight innii for the place, and it Is oortaln that tho right man will slop tho granting of nen- sloiis to wlu votes in (bo doubt fill states.
