Tb ClnlleleN farmrr, A farmer had acven daughters, Anl but little else bo had; And the if Iris all huil good appetite. Anl times were very Imd. He brllied tbe country paper To nay In hln cellar's mold He hud hidden, being it miner, Seven kog of rel, red gold. He thought bo knew human nature. That farmer, and he smiled When down the seventh rope-ludder he Saw eliipe his seventh child. 1 But It In extremely doubtful If at the time, he foresaw Their return with his fourteen irrundehildren, And seven sons-in-law. Tli Attorney General. Governor Shelden must have been un informed as to (he statu of the Attor ney General's ofiiee, or lie would have hardly made an appointment at the present time. We do not believe it possible that the Governor desires to act in opposition to the decision of our high est court ; but that is what he really has done. The Supreme Court, at the Jan uary term of the present year, decided tliat the oilice was vacant and that the (Jovernorhad.no authority to fill the vacancy : and nothing has happened to change the condition of a flairs since that time. In the spring of 1878, a vacancy in the oilice occurred by resignation, and Gov, Axtcll appointed Judge Waldo Attor ney General, under Sec. 18i)8, of the U S. Revised Statutes, which reads as fol lows : "In any of the Territories, whenever "a vacancy happens from resignation "or death uunng the recess of the legis "lative council, in any office which, un tier the organic act 01 the lerntorv IS "to be tilled by appointment of the Gov "ernor, by and with the advice and eon "sent of the council, the Governor shal "lill such vacancy by granting a com "mission which shall expire at the end "of the next session of the legislative council. Before the expiration of the next ses sion of the council, Gov. Wallace nomi nated Mr. E. A. Fiske for the office, but Mr. Fiske was rejected by the council. After the council adjourned, Gov. Wal 1 nff- -i-v 1 . i.tce gave iur. risKe a commission as Attorney General. Under this eommis sion, Mr. Fiske endeavored to exercise I lie duties of Attorney General, but tiie courts in which he appeared refused to recognize him. Nothing can be urged in support of Governor Shelden' s re cent appointment of Col. Ureeden, which was not advanced in the Supreme Court in favor of the validity of Mr. Fiske" s commission. It was contended on behalf of Mr I.V . 1. . . 1 . .. . .1 . risKcinai me vacancy was ine same old vacancy created by the resignation of Judge Waldo's predecessor, and that the Governor had authority to appoint under Section I808, above referred to The court, however, held differently, and Judge Bristol says : i 111s construction ot the provisions "oi mat act cannot he upheld. . .'HI. 1 I II in 1 ne governor snail 1111 such vacancy ijy granting a commission, etc., is the "language of that act. "If the vacancy was so filled by the "appointment of Mr. Waldo, and he "was thereby.te .wrc as well as de facto "constituted an Attorney General, of "which there can be no doubt, then "there could be no further continuance "of that particular vacancy. "Under the circumstances, therefore, "this act of Congress conferred no au "thorityon the (iovcrnor to appoint Mr. "Fiske." The opinion then proceeds in the fol lowing strong language : "The appointment of Mr. Fiske being "without authority of law, and therefore "void, Mr. Waldo conies in and claims "title to the office. "If the appointment of Mr. Fiske was "without authority of law, as we be "lieve, then we believe Gov. Shelden "acted without authority of law in ap "pointing Col. Breeden. It is unnecessary to state here the grounds of Judge Waldo's claim, as it was quite different from the present case. Judge Bristol closes the opinion by saying that the Governor has "no authority to make recess appointments to offices of this description, except where vacancies occur by death or res ignation." "We all concur, therefore, in the "opinion that neither Mr. Waldo nor "Mr. Fiske is entitled to the office of "Attorney General, and that the office "is vacant." We trust that no one will imagine that we, in the slighest degree, question the litness of Gov. Shelden's appoint ee, for we do not believe that the Gov ernor could have made a better selec tion" Col. Breeden is both able and elo quent, and has had large experience as a prosecuting officer. His appointment "by and with the advise and consent of the legislative council," would givo universal satisfaction. WE M.1Y BE HAPPY YET. Hon. John Evans and the Denver & New Orleans railroad company have each sued the Tribute for $100,000. Both com plaints allege that the articles published in the Tribune of yesterday are false, malicious and detamatory, meant, intended and designed to injure Evans in his management of the Den ver & New Orleans railway, and to damage, hinder and embarrass the said railway. And both complaints further allege that upon information received, complainants believe that these articles referred to were published at the insti gation of the Denver éc Km Grande railway or some agent thereof because they desire to prevent the construction 01 tne Denver & Xsew Orleans road, tearing that it may become a 'rival Denver Tribune, ... ..- . There is a railroad war raging in Col orado. The article in.the Denver Tri bune alluded to, stated that ex-Governor Evans had sold out the stockholders of that road and is playing into the hands of Jay Gould. Nearly every paper in the State, so far as heard from, has ar rayed itself against the Tribune. Pop ular opinion is that the I). & R. G. K. K. has instigated the attack, that the Tri bune has fearlessly followed up by other articles equally positive and couched in even stronger terms. If the 1). & R. company desires to k ill another com peting line let it select the best route to the gulf, that is the best policy to pur sue, By building from its present ter minus at Elmoro to Las Vegas and then down the Pecos valley to Laredo; it can do this. It looks as though the D. & It. G., will be driven to adopt this course. If it does not, then the Den ver & New Orleans will build to Trini dad, and then on to Las Vegas and down the Pecos to a connection with the Texas & Pacitic R. R., placing Den ver in communication with New Or leans. We may be happy yet! Xollce in the Public. tor truit and ornamental trees, shrubs, bulbs and flowering plants of an Kinus, see it.
