COUNTY FINANCES.
Major Palen interviewed on the
Proposition to Scale Down
the Bonded Debt.

few weeks ago the county commits
sioners passed resolution looking to-
ward a scaling of the bonded indebted
ness of Santa Fe county. Mr.. Romero
the county clerk, in response to an in
quiry as to the present status of the
matter, referred the New MEXICAN repre-
sentative to Major R. J. Palen. Major
Palen talked very freely and as his views
will be of general interest to the public
and especially to the taxpayers of Santa
Fe county, they are reproduced:
81 was appointed" said he, sat recent
meeting of the board of county commits
sioners to make complete schedule OF
the indebtedness of Santa Fe county
This would be very great task in view
of the shape of the public records and
would more appropriately be done by
the county clerk, if he had the data on
record, as they should be. In view of the
fact that the work would involve very
much labor and would be entirely gratu-
itous and that my time is fully occupied
with the duties incident to other trusts in
my care, it is not my intention to comply
WIFI Gllo Etq ucSb VI VIC COuuUy UUdTUs
"I suppose" he continued, "that the
purpose of the board In requesting this
statement is to make it the foundation of
a request to the county bondholders for a
further scaling of the county indebted
ness. In view of the fact that the arrange
ments for substituting rate of interest
at per cent for one of six have only
lately been completed, hardly think this
an opportune time to make further
proposition on the sub ect to the county's
creditors.
SIN view of the present condition of
the county finances, have no doubt that
one of these days the bondholders will
have the alternative presented them of
taking our property and running it, at
the same time paying the expenses of
operation; or, on the other hand of taking
greatly reduced amount in satisfaction
of the indebtedness. The time when this
shall have become entirely clear has per-
haps not yet arrived, but that it is newt
able have no doubt" 2,

FORT MARCY.
The 10th Infantry to Go to Oklahoma
Strong Protests Against the
Possible Abandonment of
This Post.

It seems to be definitely settled as
stated in our dispatches yesterday that
the 10th infantry will 60 to Fort Sill and
Fort Reno, Oklahoma Territory. These
two posts are already regimental head
quarters, the first for the 18th infantry
and the second for the Sd cavalry. They
are situated in some of the leading agri-
cultural lands in that part of the country,
but with no neighboring towns. There
have been no official orders received at
Fort Marcy as to the change; SO that 1t is
uncertain to which of these posts the
headquarters of the 10th will 60. It is
also uncertain when the troops will leave,
but Col. Pearson thinks that, in the usual
course of such events, they will be here
from two weeks to month longer.
The only communication received by
the authorities here bearing on the orders
said to have been issued yesterday was
telegram received late yesterday by
Lieut.. Stottler, post quartermaster, from
the chief quartermaster at Denver, direct
ing him to stop all orders for supplies.
At headquarters this order is construed
as meaning either that Fort Marcy will be
permanently abandoned, or that there
will be delay of several weeks in assign
ing another command to this point. 1t is
needless to say that the citizens of Santa
Fe hope that the latter is true.
kilograms respecting the possibility
of Fort Marcy's abandonment we're yes
terday afternoon forwarded to Gov.
Thornton and Delegate Joseph at Las
Cruces and ere this they have doubtless
forwarded to the authorities at Washing
ton very urgent joint telegram pro-
testing against any action looking to
Fort Marcv's abandonment. Influential
citizens here are actively at work in the
premises. This forenoon ex-Gov. Prince
sent to Secretary Lamont in person
strong telegram urging delay in any &C.
tion looking to the wiping out of Fort
Marcy until the war department could
hear from Gen. McCook, Gov. Thornton
and Delegate Joseph.

was the order of the occasion and the in
terest and welfare of Democracy and
good government for New Mexico we're
uppermost in the minds of 95 per cent of
the delegates.
Soon after the receipt of the telegram
from Mr.. Manzauares the convention eff
fected temporary organization and Gov.
Thornton was called upon to address the
convention. He responded in few well
chosen words, urging that this was time
when all personal differences should be
sunk and only the good of all New Mex
leo given consideration, and saying that
this convention had practically within its
grasp the

to New Mexico and he hoped It's de-
alterations would be of such a character
as to indicate that the representatives of
the Democratic party appreciated the
dignity and responsibility of the occa-
sion and the circumstances. The gov
ernor's remarks were received with ap-
plause.

PERMANENT ORGANIZATION

was affected by the election of Hon.
Henry L. Warren, of Albuquerque, as
president, and Mr.. Adolph P. Hill, of
Santa Fe, as secretary.
The several committees were appoint
ed and the convention took recess till 8
a. m. to-day. During the interim the con-
test involving the San Miguel county
delegation, whether the Martinez Union
party delegates or the Democratic-In-
dependent party delegates, or parts of
both, should be admitted to seats in the
convention occupied great deal of time.
The question was finally settled by the
admission of both delegations from San
Miguel, allowing each ten and half votes
in the convention.

The Advocate in Error.

MEssRs. EDIToRs-You were in error in
stating last week that the statement Of West
minister's receipts and expenditures issued
by Mayor Brooks was the first detailed state
ment ever issued by the city. Mayor Herr
issued several, though | am not certain they
were as full as Mayor Brooks. But your
error was excusable. Statements are issued
in circular form, and everybody does not see
them. They should be published in the city
press: then all people could see them
Whether the statement was the first detailed
one or not. is not q matter of much conse-
quence. What the people are most interested
in, or should be, is in having competent and
careful men to manage city affairs. As
Mayor, Mr.. Brooks has measured up to pub
lie expectation, and should be continued.
He has inaugurated system of doing bust
ness that is resulting benefcially. The papers
and books have been gotten together, the
records are better kept, the back taxes are
being collected, sinking fund is being accu-
mulated, and public improvements are being
done. The interest on the city debt is
promptly met aud all bills are paid when pre-
scented. Who else has done the same amount
of work for the city? Who else would give
the city the same attention? Who else is
better qualified to be Mayor? Who is as
competent who has been mentioned for the
place?
With debt of over $50, 900 and an annual
income of over S., 900, the tax payers should
be careful in selecting city officials. This is
no time for experimenting. Mayor Brooks
has shown his ability and has expressed a
willingness to serve longer. Let the tax-pay-
ers look to their own interest and see that he
is re elected by big majority next Monday

A TARIFF AGREEMENT.
Senator German Believes that Vote
Can Be Taken on the Measure
at an Early Day.

WASHINGTON, May 3.-Thirty eight Demo-
cratic senators met in caucus this afternoon
and, with only one exception, adopted a res
olution agreeing to support the tariff bill OF
the finance committee, including the com.
promise amendments that have been agreed
upon by the many conferences Of Demo
cratic senators during the past two weeks.
The action of the caucus, it is confidently
asserted by senators tonight, will result IN
speedy action upon the tariff bill. Senator
German is credited with saying to the caucus
that little difficulty would be experienced IN
obtaining an agreement with the Republicans
to take a vote at an early day. Senator
Aldrich, the Republican leader, was invited
into conference with several of the Demo-
Gratis this afternoon, and was asked, II is
said, what sort of proposition the minority
would consider to set time for vote. de
was assured that the Democrats are united
and would insist upon night sessions if neces-
sary in order to end the discussion. Mr..
Aldrich is credited with saying if the Demo-
Gratis can muster forty-three senators ready
to vote for the bill, the Republicans will agree
to fair time for discussion and will do moth
ing f;frther to cause unnecessary delay. These
forty-three votes the Democrats now have,
and the proposition to limit debate will proba
bly be made as soon as the amendments have
been submitted 10 the Senate. There are a
few of the Republicans who will doubtless be
in favor of filibustering, but the others be-
lieve nothing can be gained by such course
if the Democrats are really united.
SENATOR GORMAN's STATEMENT.
In presenting the resolution and stating
the object of the caucus Senator German
made conciliatory speech. He said it was
necessary to make concessions in order to
secure the united support of the party, and
he further asserted that it Ronld need a
Democratic majority to pass the bill. He
stated that concessions had been made on all
sides, and it was believed that the measure,
aith the proposed amendments, would now
meet with the support which was absolutely
necessary to pass Democratic tariff bill.
