As we were listening 10 the county
commissioners on Tuesday afternoon
while they were passing on bills, etc.
the county attorney came rushing in,
nearly out of breath, and exclaimed,
Il We got letter from the Santa Fe
officials which says that they will take
the amount of their claim S532. 90,
without the costs, if settled at once. "
The Commissioners did not at first
know what the attorney was getting at,
but it was learned after questioning
him, that it was claim that the Santa
Fe road had brought against the county
in 1886 for levying too heavy a tax,
which the road had paid and sought to
recover through the courts.
