"Simply as a matter of informa

have quite a e that we have
never, to our knowledge, been
"slew." "hip and thigh," with
"the jaw-bone cf an ass;" and had
never' realized until our esteemed
contemporary "saved the country''
in its last issue that we were in
such close proximity to such a
blood-curdling . painful and un
happy demise. Never before
bad we leen "cast out into outer
daikties;" and we have never
been in "pardise," whatever that
niav be. nor set fiie to any
"straw-piles" in that Klvsian,
supposedly happy and highly
interesting region; and we are not

look like a "dirty deuce in a new
deck;" and we don't own
"Calamity Ann's" burio, nor
"Guyer edits it" goat; and we
never gave í 1 75 for anything be
cause we never had $175 til at

any "refutation over opposition,"

"Stop Thief." because a thief
wouldn't stop if we did; and we
don't know anything about the

during the late unpleasantness)
Moabites, Peiezites and 'Hightite-by-proxv';"
and "Turkey-in the

neither fiddle nor dance ; and we
haven't advocated one thing with
our talk and pen and industrious

been so good and obliging as to
furnish it, it is only right to ac
knowledge the favor The Citizen,

defiuite and satisfactory, and we

is said this lovely condition is to
be brought about through the
enactment of oodles of wholesome
legislation. Wliere's that Austra

contemporary has evidently over

interested to page two, column

Thursday's mail bought us a
beautiful little communication from
Santa Fe. tearing the heart
rending information that "The
problem of determining the salaries
to- be paid county officials is
worriyng the legislators." We
don't believe it, because you can't
worry anything or anyone that is
minus a conscience. VV'e suspect
Johnny Conway, superintendent
of (schools of Santa Fe county,
and who is said to have a btate
oflice bee in his lonnet. as being
the author of the above mentioned
tearful epistle, as it registers a
vigorous kick against the alleged
intention of the hard-hearted
legislators to give the grapes to
the bherifTs, clerks and treasurers,
and put school superintendents ou
a section baud wage scale. We
a&rce, Johnny, that it is a dirty
shame, but we fril to see how any
thing better can be expected from
a legislative majority that has no
regard for the rights of the peo

Aim High,
It's ell right to "hitch vnur waon

it is also a'pretty good plan to see
that the end gate is in before you

In other words aim high but be
careful. The young man without an

The most practical aim in life is to
