To the Editor of the New Mexican.
Now that our city government has COM
menced operations, have suggestion
to make. 1t has been quito usual for the
mayors of eastern cities to establish q
Letter Box" in which all citizens wish,
ing to draw attention to any matter need
ing municipal action could deposit their
notices, and thus secure the desired end
without delay. Probably Mayor Thorn
ton will establish such an institution before
long, but it is particularly desirable now,
as many things have been neglected while
awaiting the inauguration of the new sys-
tenn and require immediate attention. No
doubt the argus-eyed mayor and the lynx
eyed aldermen and marshal will endeavor
to examine all parts Of the city every day
or two, but still many little things may
escape their observation unless they are
brought to their notice. | suggest, then,
that you establish department to be
called the Mayors Letter Box" in which
any matters requiring attention may be
briefly mentioned by correspondents, and
for convenience of reference it may be
well to number the items as they appear.
Enclosed are few to begin on, none of
them very important in itself, but all re-
quiring early attention:
l. Five of the wooden seats in the
plaza are broken down, and need to be
repaired or replaced.
2. There is bad hole in the bridge
over culvert in Johnson street near Mr..
Harvey's house.
3. There is a dangerous hole in cover
ing of culvert in the street leading from
Water street to the Guadalupe church.
4. About a dozen new pickets are
needed in the plaza fence.

County Bonds.

To the Editor of the New Mexican.
The recent action OF the board OF coun-
ty commissioners in declining to make a
levy for what are known as the Texas,
Santa Fe & Northern railroad bonds and
for the so called court house bonds meets
with the approval Of tax payers and
property owners throughout the county ;
the bonds in question have nothing to
stand on in court or out OF court; this
county can not pay them in their present
condition and at the present very exor-
bltant rate of interest The Texas, Santa
Fe & Northern, now the Santa Fe South
ern, even declines to pay taxes, just and
legal taxes, on very small valuation;
