the term Of the treasurer. They
say nothing about an additional
bond being given for the moneys
coming into his hands by virtue of
his Office. Under the law it is very
plain that nothing could be done
which would oblige the treasurer
to produce the funds in his hands
until the expiration of his term Of
Office. The only thing which
could be done was done and that
was to require an additional bond.
The board Of County commission
ers which required this bond went
out of Office January 6, 1886 and
the new board, Of which DR.. Wood
was a member, came in. On jan
uary z, 1886, this board examined
the accounts Of Treasurer Eckles
and the funds which be then had
on hand were turned over to his
successor as soon as he was quail
fed. There is no record that any
demand whatever was made on the
bondsmen of the treasurer to pay
over the amount which was lost
by the County. AT the February
meeting of the board the addition
al bondsmen were released from
the bond and the bond was can
celled. There is not an iota OF
evidence to show that the addition
al bond was given for any partic-
ular portion of the liability of the
treasurer and it is only fair TO pre-
sumo that the board of County
commissioners which called foI
the bond were following the line
of action clearly indicated in the
opinion of Conway & Posey, and
intended that it should be an adj.
ditional protection to ecu the
County funds. These bondsmer
were released by the board Of
County commissioners, of which
DR.. Wood was a member, and the
other bondsmen we're never asked
TO make good the loss. What dc

Perry b. Lady was born in
Washington county, East Tennes-
see, in 1859. He attended the
public schools until he was 16
years Of age when he went to
Boone's Greek college, where, in
addition to the regular course, he
took a business course to prepare
himself for an active business life.
At the age of 20 he left his old
home in Tennessee and went to
Texas where he spent three years.
In 1888 he came to Silver City
where he has since resided.
During his residence of nine
years in Silver City, Mr.. Lady has
succeeded in building up a lucra-
tive business. He is in every
sense a self made man, his father
having died while he was yet an
infant, and necessarily has had a
wide experience which peculiarly
fits him for a legislator.
His character is above reproach
and he is honored and respected
by the wide circle of friends and
acquaintance which he has made
during his residence in Grant
County. As q property owner he
is opposed to- the wasteful expen-
diture of the public money in the
payment ofaexorbitant fees and, il
elected to the Legislature, may be
relied upon toprotect the interests
of the taxpayers of the Territory.

Now is the time for every dem
ocrat in every precinct and in
every county in New Mexico to do
his duty. With the presentation
of a solid front to the common en-
envy the victory is ours, not only
in this County but in the Terrific
~. There is but one danger and
that lies in the accommodating
nature of the average democratic
voter. When he is approached by
a republican who sings the old
sweet, seductive song that he
ought TO vote for this or that re-
publican because he is a good fel-
low or hat he is q particular
friend or because he needs the Of
fee, the good natured democrat
usually complies with the request.
This is the way republicans get
into office in Grant County.
Let every democrat who is APP
preached in this way tell his re-
publican friend that he has a par
%ticular friend on the ticket or that
there is some candidate on the
democratic side that needs the
Office and insist on getting a vote
in exchange and see how quickly
the republican will lose all inter
est in the matter.
Every democrat in Grant Coun-
ty ought TO go to the polls and
vote the straight democratic ticket
The entire ticket is worthy Of the
support Of the democrats of the
County, and a united effort vii
elect it without the loss of a can
didate. The democratic party
never was in better shape in THU
County than it is today, while the
republicans are demoralized an(
the candidates on the ticket are
ready TO trade of anything OF
the ticket for a vote. They
realize that there is no Othel
way for any Of them TO bC
elected than by getting democratic
votes. This is just what they
must not be permitted 10 do. LeI

support from the republicans o.

THE Enterprise makes a very
weak excuse for the action of DR..
Wood in taking money from one
fund and putting it in another
when the law expressly declares
that it shall not be done. The
laws relating to County commits
sioners are made for the commits
sioners to obey. The board of
county commissioners are not ex-
pected to make laws to suit them
selves. This sort of work has
been entirely too common in this
County and it must be stopped.
The way to do it is to elect CON-
missioners who have some respect
for the laws of the Territory as
laid down in the statutes. Vote
for the democratic candidates fol
commissioners.

TEN days ago the republicans of
this County were pretty confident
of their ability to elect A. B. Laird
to the office Of sheriff but now it is
only too apparent that they have
given up all hope. Mr.. Laird has
been losing ground very rapidly
during the past few days, particu-
larly in the eastern part of the
county where a report vas circu-
lated about two weeks ago that j.
n. Upton was connected with the
killing of a Mexican in George
town about three years ago. The
story was put in circulation to in
jure Mr.. Upton but the effect was
disastrous to Mr.. Laird and his
party. There are other republic
cans in Grant County who believe
themselves as capable of discharg-
ing the duties of the Office of sher-
if as Mr.. Laird and they T be-
ginning to wonder if he is gong
to be a perpetual candidate. Laird
has been elected once and he has
been defeated twice. He was de-
feated in 1884 and again in 1888.
He could not have been elected in
1856 had 1t not been for the support
of democrats to whom he made
promises which did not suit the
republicans of the County. This
was shown very plainly when he
was defeated at the election near
the close of his term. In 1896
the republicans deemed it uDwise
to nominate him but this year
they returned to the man who had
led them twice to defeat. Now
they are regretting their action
but it is rather late now for repen-
lance.

Or Thursday of last week Mr..

what excited and his language was
quite violent, but he did not sue
coed in obtaining a retraction in
either instance. Enterprise.
One of the gentlemen whom Mr..
Upton Scaled down" was George
o. Smith and Mr. Upton states
that Mr.. Smith told him that if he
had cut his taxes down he would
not have been here to work against
him. This will be interesting to
the small cattle owners of the
County and tax payers in general
If Mr.. Upton had consented to
cut down the taxes of Mr.. Smith
he would have been in Kansas now
and everything would have been
lovely. Other companies and
corporations in this County are
fighting Mr.. Upton on precisely
the same grounds. If he had con-
scented to allow the big cattle
companies to put in returns for
about half the stock which they
have on the ranges and, at the
same time, had insisted on the
small cattle owners paying taxes
ON all their cattle he would not
have been opposed by them.
