DISTRICT ATTORNEYS OPINION:
OFFICE OF DISTRICT ATTORNEY,
Santa Fe, NM, July 7, 1890.

OFFICE OF DISTRICT ATTORNEY,
Santa Fe, NM, July 7, 1905
70 the Honorable Board of County Commission
ers Santa Fe County, n. M.
Gentlemen: have your request to-
gether with proposition to fund Texas,
Santa Fe & Northern Railroad bonds, and
while the time is very brief in which to
give you an opinion upon so important a
matter, still my opinion relative to the
matter of funding" Of any sort or kind
whatever, has been very pronounced since
the case of Coler vs.. Board of County
Commissioners was decided in the district
court. | mean by the above that We had
best let the courts decide as to the legality
OF the New Mexico & Southern Pacific
bonds before your honorable body goes
into any funding" business.
Upward of year ago, at the request of
your chairman, | stated in writing, my
opinion that the celebrated funding act"
was mandatory in its terms and required
the board to fund certain forms Of illegal
Indebtedness" therein described, but that
opinion was limited, of course, to cases of
acknowledged legal outstanding indebted
ness. Subsequently, however, the dis
trict court of this district, through Judge
Whiteman, distinctly held that the act is
permissive, and not mandatory.
II the bonds issued in aid of the con-
struction Of the T., S. f. 4 N. r. r. are
legal obligations OF the county, the ques-
ton whether or not they ought to be ex-
changed for new bonds, bearing a lower
rate Of interests, is purely a matter of adj
ministrative discretion, with which, l
have, perhaps, no official connection in
my capacity as district attorney. The two
opinions pronounced by Judge Whiteman
in the mandamus proceedings against the
board of county commissioners on the re-
lation Of VIM. N. Coler, jr., are so une.
quivocal and emphatic in their terms that
you can no longer have any doubt respect
ing the discretionary character of the
power conferred upon you by the fund
ing" act.
Confirming myself to the question more
appropriately submitted to me OF the va
lidity of the bonds now sought to be fund
ed, l feel compelled to say that in respect
of the T., S. F.. & n. RAILROAD aid bonds
| entertain the same doubt as entertain
in respect to the N. M. & S. P, Railroad
aid bonds, namely, whether or not it is
competent for the county to set up de-
tense of over-iesue in contradiction of re.
citals appearing on the face Of the bonds.
The last assessment for taxation prior
to the voting Of the T., S. F. & N. Railroad
aid bonds shows that the taxable prop
erty of the county amounted to 50 1856 1913.
The total amount of such bonds voted
for and issued was $150,00O, and that
amount is largely in excess of 5 per cent

sharp. Important business,
John Hampei has been awarded the

Midnight vandals have begun an attack
upon the new benches in the plaza. Sew
eral of them have been pulled up by the
roots, as it were, and one has been bro.

nights that such shame-faced deviltry is
not stopped?
With an abundance of water for irriga-
ton purposes Santa Fe can be easily made
the most attractive city in the southwest.
The water is here, and the people will
gladly pay for it, provided the supply is
increased and made in every respect re-
liable.

Seward, OF Santa Fe. Mr.. Carr states
that the company has in view some i'm
provements of the water service, but he
doesn't say as to how long it will be be-
fore they are inaugurated
F. &. Smith, the piano tuner, hired a
livery rig on Saturday and went out for
a few hours ride in the mountains. He
lost his way near Tesuque after dark, and
finally wound up at Bouquets. On Sun
day he returned, but not until his alb.
sence had set the livery men to wonder
ing What had become of their rig. Mr..
Smith says his delay in returning was
purely accidental, and he feels no little
chagrin that his absence should have
caused any alarm. He's paid his livery
bill in full.
Jay T, Adams, of Denver, the real es-
tate man who recently visited Santa Fe
and opened negotiations with Capt. John
Gray for several pieces OF south side real
estate, to-day wired the Second National
bank that he had deposited the cash nee
essary to make the last payments. He
takes thirty-six lots belonging to Geo. W.
Knaebel and sixteen lots owned by Digneo
Bros, all on Don Gaspar avenue, and also
six acres owned by J. d. Allan and located
near Galisteo street. As to whether he
will take the Berardinelli tract, near the
capitol, is not yet determined, but the
chances are that he will.

SERVING MEALS IN WASHINGTON.
A Delightful State of Affairs for House



Bag baskets like clothes baskets are
used as receptacles, one basket being
filled for each house that is to be served.
In the bottom of the basket is laid q
white cloth, SO as to hang over the sides.
On this are placed thed dishes. and on top
Of them are inverted tin pans. These tin
pans as we'll as the plates, &C., are made
very hot before being put in, and finally
over all are laid cloths, tucked in, SO that
the heat does not easily find any way of
escaping. Tho baskets thus prepared are
loaded into covered wagons, with doors
that close at the back, u are rapidly
conveyed to their destinations.
We are able in this wayoto supply meals
that are sufficiently hot upon arrival any
where within a radius of ten blocks,
though we do not like to try IL any fur
tier. The driver of the wagon-we en-
ploy foul such c~onveyances - delivers
each basket in the house it is intended for
and leaves it there. 1t only remains for
the family to put the things on the table.
An hour or SO later the wagon returns
and takes away the basket with the
dishes. We provide everything that is
needed for the meals. except table linen.
silverware, sugar and milk. OF bread
and butter we always send plenty, and
we do not think it good policy to sklmp
desserts. Washington Star.

withal to buy false hair.
Every morning, in the populous
streets, you can see the wives of artf-
sans, of small shopkcepers and of
workmen, also servant girls and shop
girls, in tattered garments and with
shoes often in holes, but all OF them
have on their heads mountains,
peaks, Jung Fraus, Alhambras, edi-
fees of false hair, shining, adorned
with gewgaws, constructed by the
hand of a special architect, and for
this indulgence in luxury the money
is always forthcoming, as they must
sail along with the tide of fashion,
cost what it may.

Hair for Ladies"2
---
Do the Majority Advocate 1T?
Mr.. Labuuchere thinks the members
of the Women,s Liberal Federation
who tried to make equal suffrage a
plank of the platform were ill-advised,
inasmuch as if they had succeeded the
majority of members would have
withdrawn. He adds
MY own belief is that there are not
1 1000 women in the country who have
the slightest desire to be given votes.
There are a certain number of ladies
who have masculine intellects, and
who are women by accident, just as
amongst children there are a certain
number of infant prodigies, and
amongst men a certain number of
males who take a delight in doing
worsted work. These ladies have a
perfect mania for holding forth
on platforms. A few-a very few
of them-are good speakers. The
majority of them are very much the
reverse. And it really is to crafty
this spirit for spouting that the whole
question has been sprung upon us.
A Liberal lady once came to the CON
clusion that she could worm out of
Lord Beaconsfield some indication Of
his contemplated course of action.
She sat by him at a party. She talked
politics, and little by little she APP
preached the matter. Lord Beacons-
field raised his eyes, and, pressing her
hand, observed, pretty darling"
This is the answer which every rea-
sonable man should make to any lady
bent upon proving to him that the
rule Of the Amazons (who. by the way,
wore swords and armor) is preferable
to the present state of things.

sermon by the Rev. II. A. Buttz. of Drew
Seminary.

Sermon by tho Rev. IL. A. BUTTE, of Drew
Seminary.
The Rev. II. A. Buttz. d. D., president
Of the Drew Theological Seminary,
preached to a large congregation in the
Simpson M. L. Church last evening. His
text was from Matt. Xxx, 26-2S, his sub
ject being "Christ's Standard of Great
ness"
All men had either inherited, acquired
or incidental capacity for greatness, the
preacher said. Every man does not come
into the world with the same abilities. In
the United States Senate there are Sen
ator5 who differ materially in point of
ability. When II man speaks the house
is empty, while when another occupies
the floor the galleries are crowded. Per-
sons of ordinary abilities, however.
through development of their powers
may become extraordinary in points of
usefulness. The men who have achieved
the greatest results in life have as a rule
been men of ordinary capacity but of I'M
usual industry. It is very rare that men
of the higher order of genius have been
entrusted with the most responsible posi-
tons of trust, such places beng usually
occupied by hard-workinR men possess
ing a good degree of common sense
Incidental capacities for greatness are
such advantages as wealth and social posi-
tiOn to which men are born, n which
come to them without their own efforts.
These advantages are not to be despised
yet they are only of Importance when
good use is made of them. These advan-
tages become especially valuable as aid
to inherited or acquired abilities. The
three together constitute the capital with
which we start in life.
Inherited acquired or incidental capa-
city never becomes great except in use.
No matter what a mans ability may be,
it will be dormant and lever recognized
by the world if not used. In the eyes of
the Master, men are not great until they
put their faculties and powers in use.
