One year Six month $2 tin 1 (XI OFFICIAL PAPER OF SOCORRO COUHTY. SATURDAY, JULY :. I'M)". "PROGRESS AND DECENCY." "1K(m;ki:ss and decency" was the slogan of the late defunct reform administration. What virtue entitled that administra tion to so high sounding a battle cry? "Progress ami decency!" Let us see. II. J. Ilagerman was the head of the administration re ferred to. One of (Governor Ilagerman's lir-.t official acts was to dismiss one of the leading officials of the territory from of fice without assigned cause and then to institute a so-called in vestigation of his accounts, at which investigation the dismiss ed official was absolutely refused a hearinir. The manner of con ducting the investigation and making its results known made manifest a high handed and reck less determination to ruin the dismissed official in his personal, political, and business relations for purely selfish purposes. And this was the first step in the di rection of "progress and deceit cy." The thirty-seventh legislative assembly convened and Governor Ilagerman found himself sadly in neeil of legislative support. He was openly accused of trad ing appointments to public office for such support as he could se cure by that means, and the ao cusation has never been denied "Progress and decency!" Charges were died against lovernor Ilagerman. " He was called into the presence of Presi dent Roosevelt, who took the bov governor by the metaphorical ear, accused him of being an un satisfactory governor, of having consummated a crooked deal in public lands for the sake of dem ocratu influence, and of having bartered public offices for legis lative support, and then cast him into outer darkness. Tli president evidently understood what the Ilagerman adherents meant iiv progress ami lecen- cy." And evidence of "progress and decency" on part of the Ilager man administration continues to accumulate. It has been pretty well established that the late governor was more than willing to barter with the democrats for the overthrow of those unfriend ly to him in his own party. Hi sent large numlx-rs of private telegrams at public expense When he left the executive office, he left in such a hurrv that he "inadvertently mixed" Kx-n-rt McMahon's report with his pri vate papers and did not discover this fact until while he was on ' fishing trip up on the headwaters of the Pecos river. lie spent me executive s contingent ex pense fund, heaven and I lager man only know how. and both refuse to tell. Hut Captain Trelford, the pris on experf imported from Kansas, surely he knew what was meant by "progress and decency." Yes; he was dismissed from the supcrintendency of the territor ial prison on a charge of inhu man and brutal treatment of con victs. He spent Í2H,(MK) of the ' annual maintenance fund in seven months, leaving only $7,000 for the remaining five months and making a large de ficit probable. lie said there was $7,000 worth of coal on hand, while careful seach reveals less than a third of that amount. He left a fine brick plant prac tically useless as a source of revenue. lie lut he lias pone back to Kansas. And those beef contracts! () "progress and decency," what hypocrisy has been prac ticed, what rascality has been committed, in thy name! Is there any reason why the adherents of the late Ilagerman maladministration who are still occupying offices of a political character should not be dismiss ed and their places tilled by friends of the republican terri torial organization? It is a mighty good rule of practical politics to reward your friends and let your enemies look out for themselves. Ilagerman and his followers adopted that rule with alacrity and were so much gratified with first results that they evidently determined to make the rule sweeping in its ap plication and would have done so if their inglorious career had not !een cut short. There is no good reason why a Ilagerman follower should continue in a lu crative office in New Mexico. vich one ol them should be re placed bv a competent friend of the republican organization. In case ol the purely honorary po sitions it is well to let fitness be the sole consideration, as has leen done heretofore. Other wise, turn the rascals out. Tin; wisdom of the action of the board of count) commission ers in borrowing money to put the court house in good repair can not be questioned. Any- hod y who cares to visit the court house and examine the improve ments that have been made and those still in progress will have to acknowledge that the results speak unanswerably in their own l-chalf. It cannot Ik denied that New Mexico ts blessed with her full share of the prevailing prosper! ty. In fact, it is becoming quite evident that in this regard the Sunshine Territory is especially favored bv Providence and the republican party. Socorro county is all right. Her chronic kickers are her only people out of business. The Doctor Away from Home When Most Needed.

All the Difference. Attorney General Hadley of Missouri condemned in an ad dress at Topeka before the State liar association, certain trust methods. "I am sure," he said, "that we all want to see laws en acted that will give a square deal to everyl-odv. We want, all over the world, as little as pos sible of that thing which is ex emplified in the anecdote of the Syracuse widow. She lost every cent she possesses through the x-culations of some dishonest bank officials. In discussing the matter with her, a minister said, soothingly: 'The thieves will be punished, maybe. They're committed for trial.' 'Yes,' said the widow, 'they're committed for trial, it is true: and my child and I are condemned to hard la I -or for life.' " The Britiah National Color. Oliver Cromwell, when for the first time he put the Knglish soldier in a red coat, probably did as much as St. George to monopolize red as the national color. CAVE THEM FAIR WARN'.MG. Congregation Apprised of th ot- Urmatic election Box." A negro preacher, whose sup ply of bacon and hominy was running low, decided to take rad ical steps to impress upon his flock the necessity for contrib uting liberally to the church ex chequer, says a writer in Human Life. Accordingly, at the close of the sermon he made an im pressive pause, and then proceed ed as follows: "I hab found it necessary, on account ob de astrinency ob de hard times an' d gineral defic iency ob de circulatid mejum in connection wid dis chu'eh t' in- terduce ma new ottermatic c'lec tion box. It is so arranged dat a half dollah or quatah falls on a red plush cushion widout noise; nickel will ring a small lell distinctually heard by de congre gation, an' a suspendah button, ma fellow-inawtels, will tiah ofi pistol; so you will gov'n yo- selves according)'.

"I find Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy to be the best Remedy in the world," says Mr. C. L. Carter of Skirum, Ala. "I am subject to colic and diarrhoea. Last spring it seemed as though I would die, and I think I would if I hadn't taken Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. I haven't been ' troubled with it since until .this week, when I had a very severe attack and took half a bottle of the twenty- five cent size Chamlerlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy, and this morning I feel like a new man."

As an or ganizer among a people with whom organization is almost im possible, and as a master of the treacherous statecraft of his race, he probably surpassed them all. As soon as his death was known, the French governor at St. Louis sent for his body and buried it with full martial hou ors near the fort." "For a mauso leum," Parkman finely says, great citv has arisen above the forest hero; and the race whom he hated with such burning ran cor, trampled with unceasing footsteps over his forgotten grave."

Holland's canals are famous, but the canal system of China is far more marvelous and its value to the enormous empire is simp- y incalculable. No country in the world has more 'navigable rivers and canals than China. The net-work of waterways, natural and artificial, so covers the empire that almost as many people live upon the water as on the land. The Great canal, that wonder of the world, runs north and south from Canton to the ex tremity of the empire, and by this route the wares of all na tions are carried to Peking, a distance of S25 nines. This can al is SO , feet wide; it passes through, or near, 41 larga cities, it has 75 large sluices to keep up the water, and is spanned by thousands of bridges. An Illiterate Peeress. The late Lord Craulley mar ried the daughter of an island fisherman. His widow, a beau tiful but totally illiterate woman, although she had become by her marriage an Knglish peeress of the realm, survived her husband for nearly twenty years without ever leaving the island of Capri, retaining her peasant dress hal- its and living happily and con' tented among her kinsfolk.
