The Coal situation.

Just at present the coal situation
at Corrillus seems a little mixed
20 far ~ concerns the present nper-
ators-or At least a majority OF
them. The land on which these
shippers have located claims ana
developed producing coal mines. T.
mostly covered by the Juana Lo-
pez grant, the elaiments Of which
and the owners Of the Ortiz grsnt
adjoining, organized the Cerrilio-
Coal and Iron Company. Up o.
the present no decided interference
10 the operators WORK has been
manifest, aud considerable money
has been put into the fields as well
as taken out, and a very fair trade
established for the coal. which T.
Of highly superior quality. In
the past week however the dor
mant Coal and Iron Company ap-
pears 20 have suddenly awakened
into life, elected new officers and
gotten ready for business. The
first move by the new superlnten-
dent was 10 visit Ctrrillos and
serve operators with notices, OF
which the following Is a copy:
"Onice OF the Cerrillos Coal and
Iron Company,
Santa Fe, N. NJ, Oct. s, 1891.
SIR: You are hereby wAfned
against trespassing or using the
property Of the Cerrlllos Coal land
Iron Company, and against dig
ging, mining, taking OF. removing
coal its product or any other prop
erty belonging 10 the Cerrillos Coal
and Iron Company, unless author
ized by said Company or its uuly
appointed agents.
The Description Of the landr of
the Cerrillos Coat and Iron Conn
pany il NJ follows: All that part
of the Mesita de- Juana Lopez grant
lying south Of the Gali-teo river,
and all that part of the New Mexi

said grant and west of the line one
mile east of the Mesita de Juana
Lopez grant, and north Of the
southern boundary OF the Mesita
de JuAna Lopez grant.

What attention these notices will
receive from the mine workers l.
as yet uncertain. Similar do
mands have been made before md
unheeded, but the opinion now
prevails that the issue will be
forced to Il finish, and the situation
presents the following phases IL
the present operators lease, they
acknowledge the rights, possession
aad ownership Of the grant title TO
the claims they have developed
and improved. Ii they refuse to
lease, the chances are their mines
may be closed by irjuncilon, wait
ing an indefinite time for settle
ment by tho courts. This gives
the coal outlook n rather gloomy
appearance for the present, though
its final settlement can but result
in benefit to Uerrillos. 1t i said
that the Cerrillos Coal and Iron
Company hrs made Arrangements
to work the conl fields to their linn
II next season, that railroad spur
will he built to different sections,
and these famous authraciie aud
bituminous Goals will be mat keted
~ extensively as they deserve. il
IL to he hoped however, that the
present operators-the men who
developed these fine Goals, estab'
lished market for them and have
been compelled 90 work under such
peculiar isadvantnges as to make
little or no money-wiIl not be
made TO suffer the entire loss OF
improvements.

ALL ONE WAY.
An Almost Unanimous Vote In Favor OF
Electric Lights.

The day appointed for holding the
election upon the proposition to bond
the town Of Audubon in the sum OF
$500 for the purpose of putting in an
electric light plant was one of the most
severe of the winter, and hence a small
vote was polled $50. OF this number
49, were in favor of and forty.three
against it. 1t was expected that per-
haps one, fourth would oppose il, but
1t is shown that that vote was little
overestimated. 1t is q gratifying Sc
quence, and one characteristic of An.
dubon, that since the measure carried
so strongly, very nearly all are in favor
of it, and viii 90 all in their power to
make the enterprise n success, IL is
another demonstration of the enter
prislng and progressive spirit of the
town. II was realized that electricity
is the popular light of the age, and that
all live towns will have il sooner or later;
so Audubon steps in near the head Of
the column Of progress,

LIberal and Cheerful Giving,

PUBLICAN, the Methodist church society
nas undertaken the project of building
new edIlce. Already they have Sc.
cured subscriptions for more than ST.

Of raising the entire sum of $4,000 be-
.ore the day of dedication. The Pres.
byterian plan Of buying u parsonage
came to focus this week. One good
lady in the organization subscribed
$500, and inside of two days the aggre-
gate subscriptions were above $1,000.
IL Is proposed to buy the Frick property
on Church street for $4,000. j, A,
Nash, who owns the property adjoin.
ing on the south, offers $500 for tho
south twenty-five feet Of the parsonage
lot, leaving the cost to the society $500.
1t Is assured that this amount win
be easily raised aud the place secured.
IL Is q handsome home residence, finely
situated, convenient and commodlous.
The ease and rapidity with which
these amounts are being raised Is a llue
testimonial to the public spirit and lih>
crafty OF our people. Tho usefulness
too, of wealthy citizens Is well demon
strated, as those who are members OF
neither denomination, have sot very
snug sum opposite their names ON
either Hat. There is great amount of
push and public spirit in Audubon. It
may be remarked In passing that Au-
dubon also voted last Monday by d
towering majority to put in electric
lights but then, that was expected.

increased beyond proportion of in

The company that has undertaken the

the success attained and the assuring
promise that tho Eclipse will take a
standard place among the indispensable

The Jewell-Bonweli Nuptials,

the presence of the family only, after
which a sumptuous wedding supper
was served, and the couple departed on
tho $50 Rock Island train for Chicago

The bride is one OF the most esteem-
cd and accomplished of the young la.
dies of Audubon county. She grew To
young womanhood in Viola township,
and graduated from the Audubon High
School two years ago, After complct.
ing her education ut Ames, she has
since been successfully engaged in
teaching She has been deseryedly pop
rilar whe ever known, and we doubt
not the good people of Viola win gladly
welcome her return as permanent res
ldent.
The groom has been successfully en-
gagged in the practice OF medicine at
Viola Center for four years, and has
ueen favored by u constantly increas-
ing business. His prosperity has been
won by u thorough preparation for the
practice of his profession and close at
tention to its eYactments.
The union is in all respects happy
one and the hosts Of friends extend
heartiest congratulations to the happy
couple, and THE REPUBLICAN sincerely
joins in the messages Of good
will. They will return to Viola
Center in about ten days to settle
among the people they have known SO
long and well. In the early spring II
handsome new home will be erected for
them, in which we all hope long future
years may find them happily ensconced.
