CATRON AND ELKINS.
Proof Conclusive That Both or the
WOrthtes Named Are Systematic
Tax Dodgers.

The "gang" howl up at Santa Fe about
the payment of their just debts and make
much ado about Hon. 7. B. Catron. The
fact is the railroads are the biggest tax
payers in Santa Fe county. Next comes
Hon. Stephen B. Elkins and then comes
Hon. T. B. Catron, and We are proud to
say that Hon. T. B. Catron is not q re-
pudiator.-socorro- Chieftain. .,----,----
Tie records in the Office of the collec-
tor of taxes for Santa Fe county show
that the total taxes levied against Dele
gate T. B. Catron for the year 1893
amounted to $2,36S 81; that $841.35 of
this sum was levied on account of inter-
est on the county bond issues of 1882,
1884. 1890, 1891 and 1892, which include
the Brice, Coler and court house bonds;
that, on February II, 1894, Mr.. Catron
paid 1858 go on account Of the Sl,526 II
levied against him for other than bond
purposes, and expressly repudiated pay
ments on account of the bonds; that ne
has not since paid dollar of taxes In
this county except in the form of fail
promises.
As to Mr.. Elkins, the records show thai
he has not deigned to pay a dollar or
account of the taxes levied against hin
in Cerrilos since and including 1892, ant
suits are now pending in the distric
court for the collection of accrued taxe'
against the New Mexico Mining company
of which Mr.. Elkins is a large stockboldel
and managing director. So it appear
that the West Virginia statesman take'
even higher rank as a tax repudiator thar
his New Mexico partner, for he seem
disposed to dodge not only his taxes OF
account of bonds, but ell other taxe
levied against him in this county, where HI
lail the foundation for his present colcs
sal fortune.
1t may be mentioned in this connection
that suits for the objection Of aelinquen
taxes in this county are also pending il
the district court against Mr. Catron.

water for IRRIGATION.

The continued chilly weather has had
the effect of keeping the snow banks in
the mountain canons intact, and as re-
suit very little water is flowing through
the irrigation bitches. This when taken
in connection with the dry weather dur
ing the past forty days has caused some
embarrassment to the valley farmers, as
the ground should be we'll irrigated be-
fore blowing and planting are commenced.
Some of the farmers are quite alarmed
already over the outlook, and are urging
the mayordomos to call on the water com
pany and see if some plan can not be de-
vised whereby water from the reservoir
can be turned into the bitches. There
seems to be plenty of snow IN the noun
tains, and as coon as warm weather comes
there will be ample water for all interests,
but the farmers say that should April
continue to be cold above the average
the season may be delayed till it ia too
late to do much with the earlier grain
crops, particularly oats and wheat.

COLUMBUS OUTCOME.
Captain Andrews Log Reads Like To
Dance of the Sea


pnance of the Sea-
In little book entitled "Colum-
bus Outdone" Captain William 4.
Andrews, who has acquired fame by
crossing the Atlantic in small boats,
tells Of his adventures in the little
IA foot boat Sapolio, In which he
crossed from Atlantic City to Palos,
Spain, in 1892. The voyage occupied
90 days, including q stop at the
Azores islands.
During oil Of his four voyages he
never tasted warm food. His
stores" consisted mainly of canned
beef, condensed milk, ship biscuits,
beef extract and canned beans. Near
~ all his meals wero eaten while no
had one hand on the boats tillcr.
Alono on the ocean for weeks at a
time, without sighting a vessel, he
sailed day after day. Columbus him
self would scarcely have ventured
ON such trip. America g discoverer
had three good sized vessels, $50
men, tho best equipments of tho
times, and in addition the blessing of
the church. Captain Andrews had
nothing but coffin shaped boat IA
feet long, a little store of provisions,
IN old Quadrant, q compass and n
chart But through all his dangers
Spd lonely hours Captain Andrews
cAecrfulncss never deserted him.

smile, and rs | blilt hcr myself

One week after leaving port, when
the little old tub was leaking badly
and death stared Captain Andrews
in the face this entry was made in
tho log:
mo mail today Can'tunderstand
why my best girl don't drop me

Another entry describes n bath the
captain took and comments on the
fact that when you're travelling
this way no bathing suit OF bathtub
IS necessary.
