The following is from the Albnquer
que Democrat:
“Yesterday C. O’Connor Roberts,
who was commissioned by the execu-
tive committee < t the Southwest Silver
convention to c <ufer with the Atlantic
& Pacific railri, id officials to secure
favorable rates, waited on Mr. H. S.
Van Slyck, general freight and passen-
ger agent That accommodating offi-
cial very willing granted a round trip
rate for a one way fare. Tickets will
be sold a sufficient time in advance to
permit delegates to arrive in El Paso
on the morning of the 4th so as to at-
tend the oauonsing on the evening be-
fore the opening of the convention.
Mr. Van Slyck stated that he would is-
sue instructions to agents at once con-
cerning the special rate and that the
same will be posted up at every station
and published in the newspapers.
This is another evidence of the fact
that the Atlantic & Pacilio railroad is
never behind in granting concessions
whenever the interests of the South-
west are concerned.
It is believed that Albuquerque will
send as large a delegation as last year,
and that a formidable contingent will
come in from the various mining camps
on the line of the A. & P. road.”
That enterprising and public spirited
citizens like Chas. u’Connor Roberts
all over the southwest are actively en-
gaged in promoting the interests of the
coming convention bodes well for the
silver cause. Mr. Roberts will be among
those^who will attend the convention.
He has already earned the gratitude of
silver miners.
A half dozen residences were en tere
President "Executive Committee
Southwest Silver Convention, El Paso.
Texas.
I am in heart and sympathy with you
and hope that your convention will
leave no stone unturned that will ad-
vance the interest of silver, the poor
man’s money. Your cause is a just one
and I believe that it will win. I think
that you should make it a part of your
business to urge the admission of Ariz-
ona and New Mexico as states which
would be a great help to our cause. I
think that the masses of the American
people are beginning to realize the fol-
ly as well as the injustice of degrading
silver and at the same time retarding
the development of the West and our
mines, and robbing the miners of
what is justly due them. The present
conditions prevent the production of
a large amount of gold for the reason
that a large percent of the gold pro-
duced is produced from silver ores that
would not pay to mine for the gold
alone. While Wyoming is not a silver
producing state, yet we know that she
has hundreds of square miles that con-
tain rich silver and gold bearing ores
and all that is necessary to develop
them is capital, and this we will get
when there is just and proper silver
legislation. At this election the peo-
ple defeated the Republican ring that
has been doing everything it could to
degrade silver. It is a very strange
thing that men would have the cheek
to oppose legislation that is for the
benefit of the masses of the people and
especially for the benefit of the west.
Command me if I can do anything to
help you out.
Yours Respectfully,
M. N. Grant.
entered by a bold thief or thieves Thurs-
day night. The description of the thief
in two Instances point to it being the
same man, and one could not help but
having an admiration for the cool im-
pudence and fearlessness the rogue
displayed.
The residence of Dr. W. N. Vilas on
North Stanton street was the first place
visited. The thief entered through
the parlor window, turned out the gas
burning below, and going up lit the
gas in the ft mt hall. He secured a
diamond stu < I from the front of the
doctor’s shit i and $7.50 in money be-
fore being discovered. The police was
telephoned for, but the man walked
cooly down stairs and passed out.
This was about 1:30. .
Mr. II. J. Roche on North El Paso
left the key on the inside of his front
door and the burglar used nippers to
turn the key. lie found Mr. Roche
asleep in a chair and left.
In attempting to enter the residence
of Mr. W. A. Irvin on North Stanton
at two o’clock the window was allowed
to fall. The noise frightened the thief
and he made olf.
Mr. Morgan Baker who lives on the
corner of Missouri and Stanton streets
was awakened at ±30 o’clock by his
dog. He saw the men leaving when
he arose. He lighted a lamp expecting
their return. They did return and
effected an entrance by the kitchen
door in the same manner as at Mr.
Roche’s. Mr. Baker was still awake
and calling to a Mr. Watson who
sleeps at the house he thus frightened
them off.
Mrs. Lane’s on Chihuahua and
Second streets was visited. The in-
truder raised a window in the room of
Miss Alice and passed through to a
room occupied by Mr. J. B. Badger.
The latter awoke and sat up In bed just
as the man picked up his pants. A
lamp was burning at the time. Mr.
Badger was suffering from an injured
hand and the thief walked cooly out of
the room without being concerned as
to whether Mr. Badger followed him or
not.
Mr. and Mrs. W, L. Culber-
son of North Staunton street,
awoke at a late hour to find
the house had beeu ransacked.
A ladies’ gold watch and a child’s bank
containing small change were missed.
The family suppose chloroform had
been used to prevent their awakening.
A good many suspicious characters
are held by the police, but they are not
the least positive of having the right
parties.

Special Correspondence.
Dkmino, N. M.,Nov. 18.—The Head-
light, issued tomorrow, will have the
following to say editorially in refer-
ence to the coming Silver Convention
at El Paso:
“The movers in the El Paso Silver
Convention that is to meet at that city
in December next, acted wisely in
postponing it to the date set, till after
the presidential election. It will, if
discrete in its conclusions, prove an
important gathering. Now that the
quadrennial election is over, people
will be inclined, and will find time, to
give this important subject much
more careful consideration than was
possible during the campaign just
closed. Let that convention act with
dignity and intelligence-formulate a
campaign for free silver, free from the
crudities of quacks and cranks, and
make ready for an onset upon the
next congress, now assuredly Demo-
cratic, and they can rest assured that
free silver will win.”
For several days past nothing has
been heard of the movements of “Kid”
and his baud of renegads and the
troops, which at last accounts, were in
close pursuit. The chances are that
the Indians will be wiped out of exist-
ence before a great while. When last
seen both parties were heading for the
Sierra Msdres, about 100 miles soutb-
west.
Major Adna R Caffee, Ninth cavalry,
acting inspector general of the depart
ment, will shortly visit and inspect
property, etc., at Fort Bayard, this
county.
A pension office will shortly be es-
tablished here for the convenience of
the people as to examination. Dr. R.
F. Stovall has been recommended by
Governor Prince for the appointment
as medical examiner.
It is reported that Colonel J. P.
McGrorty of Doming will be a candi-
date for the office of internal revenue
collector of New Mexico He was col-
lector under Cleveland before and has
a magnificent record in that office.
The Board of World’s fair commis-
sioners of New Mexico have united with
Arizona and Oklahoma in the erection
of a Territorial Exposition building at
Chicago. In view of the dissensions
among the members of the Board, it
was undoubtedly the best course to
pursue.
While eating supper in the restaurant
last evening, Frauk McCliuchy, the
expressman, was suddenly seized with
severe cramps, and occasioned quite a
little excitement for a time* owing to
the rumor that he had been poisoned.
Medical attendance brought him
around all right.
Expenses must be reduced in Grant
county. The indusiries of the county
are not in condition to admit of exorbi
tant fees and charges. The coming
Legislature must reduce the expences
of the county government. Let the
will of the people be heeded.
Prof. Woods, the blind violinist will
