The Court House Question,

The La Junta Times in referring to
the happy settlement of The court house
controversy says:
"The mutuality of agreement between
the various interests in Otero county
eliminates the question of The election OF
county commissioner from the cam
paign. The understanding arrived at
Wednesday is equivalent to Mr.. Wei
lands election. He now has behind him
practically all the influential men of ihe
county and bis election will be merely
formal conclusion of the compact"
"That tho utmost good faith will mark
ihe observance of the terms upon which
the favorable termination of the court
house controversy was reached, the
Times entertains not the slightest doubt.
Strict and binding assurances have been
given by both sides that Mr.. Weilapd
shall be loyalty supported by tbe people
of La Juntn; that i'll no event shall the
cost of building the court house exceed
$4,000 aud that the county shall hold an
undefeasable title deed to the site upon
which the building is situated. That
these terms shall be scrupulously COM
Piled with the honor of La Junta and
