ABSOLUTELY PURE
County Affairs,

The old board of county commits
sioners at their final meeting this week
transacted several matters of interest.
One of them was the approval Of tho
bond of the new assessor, Frank Con
zales y Baca. The bond he gave was in
the sum of $4,000. The probate clerks
report showed licenses issued for No
vember and December amounting to
$l,468.50. Andy Horne, the COchiti
stage man, made an application through
his attorney, Mr.. George Knaebel, for an
apportlonment of the taxes on the prop
erty he has bought from Mrs. Nolan for
the erection of stable. This applica-
tion was granted. Mr.. Frank W. CLANCY
applied to the commissioners for re-
ductinn of tha nssssssnent made by
Sheriff Cunningham on his mill at
Dolores. The sheriff in the absence of a
return by Mr.. CLANCY assessed it at
$4,000, and the commissioners after hear
ing evidence reduced this to $1,000, at
the same time ordering the payment Of
the sheriff's fees for his trouble in the
matter. The board then adjourned sine
die. Messrs. A. L. Kendall and Victor
Ortega retire from the public service
with the dissolution of the old board.
Mr.. G. W. Dudrow, who holds over, will in
company with Messrs. W. G. Rogers and
Pedro Lujan, direct county affairs for
the next two years.

that inasmuch as the transaction involves
