Mr.. Geo. c. Preston, assistant U. S.
district attorney, has returned from Fort
Wingate, near which place he accom-
panied Gen. Carr on bear hunt. They
had just comfortably located their camp
and enjoyed one days sport, when, upon
returning TO camp at night-fall, Mr.. Pres
ton was met by courier from Wingate
bearing dispatches to the effect that he had
been commissioned assistant U. S. district
attorney for New Mexico-but Mr.. Pres
ton had got his "bar," and so he was
doubly happy. He was accompanied on
the days hunt by Navajo Indian, and
jumping up black bruln they both fired
at the same instant. Both balls took ef-
feet in the ANIMALS head and he became
their meat" in short order. Mr.. Pres
ton says there is wonderful sport down
in that region for gunners, bear, deer and
wild turkeys being plentiful.

The columns of the NEW MEXICAN are
open to County Commissioner Wyllys
for response to the above pertinent in
terrogatorIes.
In this connection it may not be i'm
proper to quote the following extract,
section 1897, Compiled Laws of New
Mexico, 1884:
at shall be the duty of the collector to
make settlement semi-annually with
the board OF county commissioners, at
their first meetings in January and July !;
and he shall at such times furnish to the
board an itemized report of the transac-
tons of his office for the previous period
of six months. He shall also make to
the board detailed statement of all the
double, improper assessments and of the
uncollected taxes, setting forth the facts
and verified by his affidavit; and the
county comm issioners shall at such meet
lngs, or, as soon thereafter as possible,
pass upon such accounts allowing or
rejecting the same and enter an order of
record accordingly"
The following refers to the penalty"
provided by law, section 29l5, G. L. 1884,
in such cases:

or refuse to perform any of the duties i'm
posed upon him by the provisions of this
chapter at the time and in the manner
required by this chapter, shall be punish
ed by fine not exceeding 1000 or by

forth has not been complied with during
the past two years.

n, L. Cornell, representing the Denver
Republican, has been so nicely treated by
Santa Feans that he took in south side
real estate bargain to-day, Gust as a
flyer" Before the deeds passed another
Colorado man offered him $50 for his
bargain. 1t was declined, as Mr.. Cornell
has faith in Santa FEES future. He bought
the Jim Harris lots in the Irwin addition.
Gov. Prince returned from Socorro last
night. The contract for the construction
OF the foundation OF the laboratory of the
school of mines was awarded by the board
OF regents to r. P. Faddis & Co., of So
zorro, for $4,000. While at Socorro the
governor drove out to see A. D. Coon's
young orchard, where 1900 apple trees
are fourishing beautifully without irriga-
ton. Mr.. Coon expects this fall to add
500 ounce trees to his orchard.
Yesterday the sheriff paid over to the
treasurer 1882 IA delinquent taxes from
l6S5-6-7 and $oS366 delinquent taxes
from the year 1888, all of which, under
the law, goes into the general delinquent
fund to pay expenses of the county in
cured during 1889. To-day $1,000 was
paid in. OF this sum $500 is from mer-
chants license, and goes into the general
county fund OF 1890, and 500 for the
school fund, while 800 goes to the county
bonds fund.
Bishop Goodsell, OF the NJ. f. church,
departs to-day for his home in Fort
Worth, Texas, and, by the 30th he is to
be in Washington, D. c., where the
semi-annual meeting of the college OF
bishops is held. His presence and pres.
dency at the recent session of the En-
glish mission has been real benedic-
ton. He has made many friends and
greatly endeared himself to the people
not only of his own church, but the peo-
Pile generally. Seldom if ever have the
people of Santa Fe been favored with
addresses of so great sympathy and of so
practical nature, or such mastery and
sermon rs that delivered to q
full house on Sunday morning. The best
wishes of the people of Santa Fe follow
him. A most hearty welcome will be &C.
corded the eloquent and genial bishop on
his return in the future.

Mr.. HAGERMAN TALKS.
A BIT OF Railroad 4Sews Regarded as sig
nificant for All New Mexico.

Mr.. j. j. Hagerman, president OF the
Pecos Valley railroad, which is designed
to give New Mexico direct connection
with gulf tide-water by building a road
through the Pecos Valley to the north
west, is the man who built the Colorado
Midland, and he knows more about that
companys deal with the Santa Fe than
any other man in the west. This is evil
denced by the way he talks facts. All
doubts about the Santa Fe-Midland-
Western deal have been set at rest by
Mr.. Hagerman making a statement for
publication of which the following is the
substance: owe have agreed to turn
the Midland over to Santa Fe
early in November, when the
last payment for the stock is made.
A payment has already been made IN &C.
cordance with the contract, and the re-
mainder will be paid as agreed, when the
sense to suppose that the Santa Fe may
shut off the Rio Grande Junction road,
for the Midland owns one-half of that
loau anu has eXactly tne same Tlgnts over
it as the Denver d Rio Grande. There is
no disagreement between the two COM
pan-s III regard to II and there can not
be any. may also say that Mr.. Colbran
is going to remain in his present position.
This has been definitely settled by the
Santa te people"
The significance OF these utterances
here in New Mexico is that when the te-
COS Valley road is built northwest it will
not have any strained relations with
the Santa Fe, and just as sure as shoot
ing" there is to be line built from Tex
as through the breast of New Mexico that
will have Salt Lake and the northwest
for its destination-and that road will
come through the Cerrillos coal fields.
1t is not long time off either.
