The democrats who have been assisting Hill substantially con concede - cede concede defeat, now that the false issues raised by Hill and company, for the purpose of robbing Senator-elect Sherwood and the dead Senator Deane, are to be decided in the courts. Hill strained every nerve, and stopped at no obstacle presented by law, justice or decency, to prevent the courts from having an opportunity to act. The judges whose integrity and authority he strove to evade are not republicans. They are democrats, and no doubt strong partisans, but they are honest men, animated by a sense of duty above their attachment to party. The Senate is nowsecure. The law as to the ballots thrown out in Dutchess county is as clear as as its violation was outrageous, and, as to Senator Sherwood's seat, should the technicality raised against him be adjudged to have a legal foundation, the new elec election - tion election would undoubtedly result in republican success. The senate is saved, and that means that the state of New York is saved; that one of the most desperate of political crimes has been balked in its object and that David B. Hill stands before the country stripped ot whatever dis disguise - guise disguise he possessed, of principle and political honesty, and held up to the nation as an example of that which is most despicable and dangerous in the political life of the nation.

In Memoriam. Dr. A. C. Walker, the subject of this brief notice died at his home in Socorro at 9 o'clock a. m. December 12th., 18Ó2, of pneu pneumonia, - monia, pneumonia, alter an illness of about four days. He was born in 1828, in Lancaster county, Pa., about twenty-five miles from Phiia Phiia-dclphia. - dclphia. Phiia-dclphia. After arriving at the age of manhood, he attended some of the medical schools in that city, and subsequently was a practicing physician there for many years, having an extensive practice not only among the wealthier class, but especially among the poor and needy. From Philadelphia he came to Socorro in the spring of 1882, with Mrs. Margaret k. Walker, his sor sorrowing - rowing sorrowing wife, who remains to mourn his loss. About that time he began to build the Walker House, which afterward was partly destroyed by floods; was subse subsequently - quently subsequently rebuilt, greatly improved and furnished, and was finally totally destroyed by fire in the spring of 1889, thus sweeping away in a single night all the property the owners had invested in Socorro. Since that time they have struggled under adverse cir circumstances - cumstances circumstances to save some part of the wreck, and if possible to re repair - pair repair some of the losses they had suffered, but as they had lost substantially all their means, this was difficult. There is no doubt but that the hardships, privations, struggles and disappointments endured in these efforts, were the direct cause of his death, and of the loss of health by his wife. They have literally sacrificed themselves in trying to save a remnant of their property to give themselves an honorable support in old age. Dr. Walker's family have always been known as orthodox Quakers and he died in that faith. His ancestors came to Pennsyl Pennsylvania - vania Pennsylvania in a very early day, being induced to settle in that state by their religious belief. He leaves to mourn him, besides his wife, two brothers, residents ot Christianna, Pa., where he was born, and also two married sisters. Owing to the serious illness of Mrs. Walker, he was buried from the residence of our townsman John W. Terry, where a funeral service was had, conducted by Rev. Dr. McKellar assisted by Dr. Harwood. Thence the mor mortal - tal mortal remains of our former neigh neighbor, - bor, neighbor, who had spent his money, labor and talents, and even life itself to build up our city, and make a prosperous community, were carried away with the last tjkensof respect and consigned

to his graver he final destiny of us all. On Monday last all the tele graph operators on the A. & P. road from Albuquerque toMojava went out on a strike. This prac practicably - ticably practicably closed the road, all trains were abandoned on Monday and on luesday none were running. On the S. P. road about the same state of affairs exist. The opera operators - tors operators are out from El Paso, Texas, to central California. This strike practicably closes the southern routes for travel. The trouble on the S. P. was caused on account of an obnoxious affidavit ordered to be signed by the men, stating that they were not members of any organization. The men sent the affidavit back and quit. The operators on that road are not peons. Un the A. & P. the men want better wages than they have been getting, and having made a schedule they are standing by it( With this issue we - insert the ad. of the Albuquerque Adademy This is its I2th. year, it is giving the best college preparatory course 01 any institution in tne southwest.
