winter ami would be used in the early
spring. He stated that the Bennington
Electric Railway Co., would be granted
the use of these tracks at reasonable
rental.
Mr.. Valentine appeared for the Ben.
nington Electric Railway Co., in op.
sition to the granting of the petition.
He stated that his company had been
granted the privilege of constructing
their tracks on the streets in question,
after the expiration of the time allowed
the other company by its charter to
cover these streets. Mr. Valentine be.
leved that his company having been
granted this privilege, no other com
pany should be allowed thereon. He
met Mr.. Martins statement that the
New York capitalists would not raise
the funds for their enterprise until the
tracks were extended to the depot, by
offering to guarantee that these tracks
would be laid at the earliest possible
time; that surveys for the general work
of the company were to begin at once
He further stated that Mr.. Martins
company could have the use of these
tracks to the depot at a rental that
would be cheaper than building by
them,--at rate less than the interest on
the money that would be required in the
construction. Mr.. Valentine also statt d
that the village would hardly care to
further damage these streets by double
tracks or by track on both River and
North to County, his company having
already been granted the use of these
streets, as would probably result should
the petition be granted
After Mr.. Martin had fully stated the
claims and promises of the Woodford
Electric Railway Co., as to the construc-
ton of it's road and the amount to be
expended the coming season estimated
by him at from Sl25,O00 to S25O.OOO. Mr..
Valentine rose and stated that had such
statements been offered by any other
person than Mr.. Martin he should be
much inclined to doubt and mistrust
them but that coming from gentleman
of his recognized reputation for truth

substance goes out of the territory for
such products. Why it is fact even that
many towns in New Mexico do not con-
sumo one-tenth as much New Mexico
fruit as they do of the California article.
There onght to be spirit of fair play,
reciprocity, if you please, among our
towns in this respect. One could buy of
the other and thus keep the cash at home

New Mexico products the preference.

In the next congress between twenty
five and thirty newspaper writer's and
owners will take their seats as members.
Among the more prominent may be men
toned Senator Hawley, of Connecticut,
and "Charlie" Russell, of the same state;
Representatives Boutelle and Dingley, of
Maine; Quigg, of New York; Barthold, of
Missouri; Scranton and Mutchler, OF
Pennsylvania; Perkins, OF Iowa, and Sen
ator Hansbrough, Of North Dakota.
Hendrix, of Brooklyn, and Conn, of In
diana, each declined reelection. 1t is a
curious fact that though many of the
newspaper men are brilliant writer's few
of them can speak. They are, however,
far-sighted and earnest workers, and in
the committee rooms and conferences
they contribute great influence.

A New Mexico Orchard.

Perhaps nothing in the Rio Grande val,
ley, and, for that matter, in the territory,
Is more deserving of mention than the Or
chard of A. D. Coon, about three-fouTths OF
a mile south of the postoffice in Socorro,
and within the city limits. Upon fifty
acres of land Mr.. Coon has nearly 5000
fruit trees, 1000 of which are apple trees,
800 of them being "Ben Davis" apples,
and 1900 of this variety are in one
group; 1900 plum trees, 500 ounces, 100
pear trees, 100 apricots, 100 cherry trees
and $50 peach trees. These trees are G
and years old and in full bearing. They
are of the finest selected varie les aud
not seeding among them. The trees
have been grown without irrigation! By
thorough cultivation of the soil and
being only six to eight feet above water
level, they have thrived as no other trees
in the valley have. Perfection in tree
growth comes nearer being realized in
this Socorro orchard than in any other
place the writer has ever seen, and he has
visited some of the finest orchards in
California. The trunks and limbs of the
trees appear as if vanished. The trees
are symmetrical, and not leaf is OF
color; all are of the rich dark green which
indicates plant life and health. The
plum trees are loaded with fruit like
clusters of grapes; apples, early and late
weight down the limbs of the trees with
all they can bear after many have been
picked to relieve them. Cherries and
apricots have been picked, and many
early peaches have been sent packed for
market. Mr.. Coon has peaches ripening
from the Goth of June until October. He
has already marketed over 5000 pounds
at from cents to 615 cents per pound
He estimates his entire crop of peaches
at $4,000 pounds from the $50 trees. His
apple crop is expected to yield $4,000
this year, and the yield of his orchard
will not be less than $4,000 for 1885,

Although there are a number of New

Regardless of politics) can only say. that
no state or territory has, or ever had, an
executive more ready to look after the
difficulties arising in every nook and cor
ner of the territory than is Gov. Thorn
ton. In several cases, to our knowledge,
he was there personally, not relying on
other officials wholly, but taking the
matter in his own hands and making him
self leader at the scene of trouble.
Prompt action in all difficult cases and

WOULD it not be good policy for the
Santa Fe city school board to ascertain
just where ITS finances are to come from
before it employs ten teachers at one fell
swoop? That's the business way to look
at it. 1t would be deplorable if, after
employing 80 many teachers, the discov-

PRESS COMMENT.
After Tax Dodgers.

An examination of the acts of the board
of county commissioners while sitting as
board of equalization on assessments
reveals an interesting state of affairs
which will be treated at length IN these
columns. 1t is found that owners of large
amounts of taxable property as rule
secured large reductions on the assessed
value of their property, while owners of
small amounts of taxable property, as a
rule, could not get any reductions. In
dealing with this matter the Reporter will
use only the official records. We expect
to prove that the people of this county
are being imposed upon by their county
commissioners on the plan of $40 him
that has more shall be given, but to him
that has not it shall be taken away from"
