FRIDAY. DECEMBER 18. Heavy enow this winter in the mountains will be the sure harbin ger of a gi od season next year. The Albuquerque Journal nsks "Who crucified Christ?" Let's see We believe the Santa Fe New Mexi can charges the crime to Governor Ross. The war over tho question of attor ney general and district attorney seems to havo quieted down, and but little is said in the papers.

Colonel Ureeden is supposed to be engaged in still hunt after Governor Ross' scalp in Washington, but thus far nothing has transpired to ehow his handiwork. If that is Breeder's pur pose, and his plans should not ma terialize in preventing the confirma tion of Ross, the laughter will, begin to show in the corner) of his mouth, downward instead of upward. One trouble with the Colonel is that he don't fully realize tb.e difference iu being on the side of the outs, instead of the ins. A peculiarity of New Mexico, and in fact of all this high mountain country is the lack of that particular elasticity of the atmosphere which produces echoes, possibly produced by rarity and dryness. With the mountain ranges and perpendicular walls of canons and barrancas at a low altitude the reflection of sound as heard in an echo would be numerous and continuous.

But here, except on a dry day, the report of a gun dies in the sound and is not repeated from peak to peak and canon wall to plain. In itsextreme drynesB the air seems to lark the power of reflection and no reverberation is heard. It is expected that the meeting of range men called to assemble in Denver, January 27, 1886, for the purpose of organizing an International Range Cattle and Horse Growers' association will be attended by 300 delegates representing 15,000,000 head of cattle. In making the basis of representation in this convention one delegate for every 50,000 head of cattle represented in the local association, the managers have -essayed to start upon a solid, substantial foundation. The recent cattle conventions where promiscuous representation has been the rule have been practically barren of other results than possibly "a good time." Bv a properly equalized delegate representation the interests of all parties will be subserved and only those directly interested and in a strictly business way, will have a voice and vote in determining the policy of the proposed organization.

The two main points to be considered are of vital importance to range men, namely the question of reducing the cost of sales on commission, and to regulate shipments of cattle so that the eastern markets may not be overcrowded at some seasons of the year, as has often been the case of late, to the great pecuniary loss of the shippers. The Denver convention Beems tohaye been properly conceived, and as properly carried out cannot but inure to the benefit of the vast interests there to be represented. TERRITORIAL NEWS. Misa Murv Mnnrft And flenrv Miles, of Albuquerque, will be mar- rieu ounaay. A.

G. Hood, former manager of the L.as vegas telephone system, is now a telegraph operator at Silver City. Graveyard ghouls deface the mon uments in tne Katon cemetery. A reward of $30 has been offered for the couviction of the miscreants. Frank Unruh, a Colfax county ranchman, was fatally shot at his home Monday by Theodore Baker.

The trouble grew out of a land dim-culty. Baker, who was wounded, claims to have acted in self defense and will give himself up to the sheriff. Unruh leaves a wife and child. The Tueblo smelting company will commence the construction of large sampling works at Heming soon. The present facilities are not sufficient to meet the demand aad more convenient and capacious works will be built where the large quantities or ore purchased by this company can be handled.

Mattie Lee Hancock, eight years old, with a head twenty-four inches in circumference, has been on exhib-itioRat Albuquerque. She told a Democrat reporter that her pother had refused an offer of $150 a month from travelling snowmen. The girl's body is diminutive. 'ower limbs re useless, bhe has been taken to where she has relations. Thompson, the Luna Valley murderer, and Anderson, the negro charged with murder, came near sawing their way out of the Socorro jail Tuesday.

They had three saws zaad from araior, a knife and a boot springy Steel. An Iron bar baa teen sawed partially tnrgush and then covered with tallow to prevent discovery, but bheriff Russell was too sharp for theru. James Case baa just made fur fc'colt Moore and William Farr a hat rack composed of highly Texas cow norns, that takes the blue ribbon for artistic workmanship, ornamentally and usefulness. A board about four feet loug-and one foot wide, neatly upholstered with various colored silk -velvet, chenille and gold Ornaments is set with six pairs of i orna, three being veiy large iccupy-ng the top, bottom and center, and three smaller sets filling the vacant spaces between. The board hangs agiinst the wall in a perpendicular position, and the whole thing is beautiful, bevond pencil description.

The present is for Warner the block Grower, at Las Vegas. Albuquerque Democrat. A scout named Roberts lias discovered a very rich mine near Doubtful Canon. The mine is located six miles from Stein's Pa8, Grant county, and two and one half miles from the The ore runs $12,000 to the ton and crops out on the surface, ihe indications are that there is a larare body of ore and as it is near the railroad and can be shipped without trouble it is likely to prove a very valuable mine. Headlight.

A special tram consisting of two coaches and rive box cars, came in over the Atlantic Tacific Wednes day morning loaded with soldiers and a complete field "outfit. The train was in charce of Capt. J. B. Kern and Lieut.

Kingsbury, and was made up of troop of the bixtb cavalry, fifty-two men strong and four Navajo Bcouts. They are bound for Stein's pass where the Indian trail leads out of the Florida mountains into Old Mexico, and where for months a regular scouting post has been established. A number of the boys of the Sixth cavalry en route to the front during the few hours lay-over scattered over the town to have a time. About a dozen got comfortable full, and four or five became staggering drunk. Having on belts and pistols, Marshal Marsh notified them that it was against the law and dignity of the city.

He requested them to lay their arms aide, and in the majority of cases it was done. Eight or -ten of the men refused to comply and the marshal with the assistance of Officer McGuiietook their guns away. A great howl went up of course, and Lieutenant Kingsbury seemed to stand by the soldiers. He said to Marsh during one of his tirades "Why damn it," do you know what you will do if keep his thing up? You'll have the entire United States army down on top of you." vine marshal looked him over critically and smilingly for a few seconds, and replied, "lhat wouldn't scare tthe police of Albuquerque muchjudging from the way you fellows fight Apache Indians." Uapt.Kern, in command ol the de tachment, said that the marshal was right and should disarm every soldier he saw in his cups. Ihe train left at 2 o'clock', and the pistols were turned over just as it pulled out.
