THE I'KKSIOKNI'S MKSSAUE.
In <>ur yesterday's Issue of the Timks
we gav« our readers the annual message
of the president to the tongress com-
plete with a few unimportant excep-
tions. It Is rather a prolix document
and covers the ground to he discussed
pretty completely. There is touch to
commend it, and some ot his suggestions
will no doubt carry considerable weight
willi this congress, although on other
subjects again there 's a wide diversity
of opinion between the chief magistrate
and the people's representatives.
One of those irrepressible differences
of opinion is on the subject of silver,
President Cleveland ten mono-roetnlist,
a 80-cnlleil "go|il-bng." lie Is In favor
of a single i"(ld standard, and opposed
to the further coinage of sil ver. Even
before he entered upon the functions of
his office, lie entered actively in the lists
of the anti-silver crusaders He re-
news in his present message the recom-
mendation made by lilm before,that the
Coinage of the silver dollar cease. It is
safe to predict that neither the Forty
ninth nor the fi ftieth congress will pay
any attention to this advice. The great
west and the new south are overwhelm-
ingly in favor of a double standard of
value,and the perfect equalityof gold and
Silver. Without the lower house of con-
gress, the direct representatives of the
great toiling masses, the president and
the moneyed aristocrats of the east are
powerless.
However, these are only a few of the
more prominent spots on the sun. There
is much to praise and commend in the
message, and on many Important sub-
jects drover Cleveland's ideas are emi-
nently sound.
In that portion of the message devo-
ted to foreign relations lie devotes con-
siderable space to our intercourse with
Mexico, lie speaks of the necessity anil
advisability of cultivating continued
friendly relations with our sister repub-
lic and the importance of a comprehen-
sive commercial reciprocity treaty, but
in touching tlie notorious Cutting mat-
ter, he never mentions Indemnity once,
and mtrelvsays that to acknowledge ex-
tra territorial jurisdiction on the pait of
Mexico would be unjust and dangerous
to our citizens, and that he will insist
on the obnoxious section IMS of the Mex-
ican Criminal Code to lie modified.
in speaking of our relations with Chi-
na, the president Intimate* very broadly
that he don't chime In with the Califor-
nia sentiment of "the Chinese must go."
He is, however, very guarded In dealing
With this subject.
The president refers to the necessity
of surveying and defining the boundary
line between Alaska and lirltish Colum-
bia, a line which runs through an icy
desert of hieak snow hills and frown
morass, but he neglects to point to the
necessity of at once settling for good the
boundary question between us and
Mexico—a question that will very short-
ly give ns unending trouble all along the
Bio Grande.
One rood suggestion made in the mes-
**.!?•' i" that the pay of American consuls
In foreign countries should be Investigat-
ed. ichungwi mid where necessary en-
larged. lie expresses some sound Ideas
on the Mibjcci, The pay of an Ameri-
can consul in I'aso del Norte for Instance

THPCASE OK *11. AKXFJIURIZ.
It will bo seen by reference to the
proceedings of the connty commission-
ers' court in veiterdav'a issue of the
Timks that that body refused to allow
an interpreter at its proceedings for the
benefit of Commissioner Aruiendariz,
t lie only one of the court who does not
speak English. That is; the court does
good faith toward# alt parties. We authorise
not object to mii interpreter, but it does company to use this certificate, with fae-
, , , 'ImllMofonr signatures attached , in |t«»dver-
'<t' fj.rnriti Ir la nam' an 11 - _ » _
uot wnnt lo pay for one. It is very ev-
ident that our county legislature has
entered on a very comprehensive and
sweeping system of retrenchment in the
public expenditures. It has apparently
made up its mind Unit Ihe old indebted-
ness shall be paid oil', no new ones con-
tracted, and that county scrip, if any of
It remains outstanding, shall be quoted
at par. Tills cleansing of the Augean
stable is a truly Herculean tnsk, but If
perseverance and 11 sincere devotion to
the public Interests can accomplish It.
our present board of county commis-
sioners will do It, In the Aruiendariz
matter, however, it seems to us that the
American commissioners have been a
little too severe, and in endeavoring to
tie saving and economical, have failed
to he just and fair. Some portions of
our county are settled by a
Mexican population almost exclusively.
They are not intruders, but
have been here for three hundred years,
long before the United States were
thought of. They are a law-abiding and
Industrious race, and have u right to be
represented in our public councils by
their peers. Mr. Artnendsrl/. R the re-
presentative man of his district in every
sense of the word, lie is a man of sense,
ile is a friend of Americans and particu-
larly of K1 Paso. If It had not, been for
Mr. Aruiendariz, there would, for In-
stance, have been no court-house Inves-
tigation. There were many thousands
of dollars saved to the county through
his instrumentality. Now it looks rath-
er small lo deny him an Interpreter when
lint expense would lie a mere trillle. in
all olher sections of the county where
the American and Mexican races are
commingled, it is the practice, the un-
written law of the land, to employ Intel*
prefers In courts and official assemblies.
l.et us be economical and saving, but at
the same time let us be just.
