economical lines and great saw
ing has been made. For this ad-
mirable state of affairs the county
commissioners are entitled to no
small share OF the credit. In every
department over which they have
control the expenses have been
decreased, even their own salaries
amounting to but half what they
were the preceding six months
We believe they have endeavored
to conduct the affairs of the county
on strictly business principles, and
as economically and expeditiously
as possible.
The people OF Otero county
have reason to congratulate them
selves on the very efficient corps
OF officials now in charge OF their
business affairs.

Geo. c. Burnett, of the firm of
Burnett g. Son, architects and
builders, has recently opened an
office in the Woodruff block, and
there we found him the other day.
Poor Richard once said, "Seest
thou a man diligent in his business,
he shall stand before kings" Mr..
Burnett, however, hasn't any time
to stand before kings, being busily
engaged at present in drawing
plans for new residences, a num-
Der OF which he gave US permission
to inspect. From the plans we
saw La Junta is to be graced with
some magnificent residences during
the present season.
n. s. Larsen will build COM
modious two story brick, which
will cost about 50, 200.
c. X. Buckley will build two
brick cottages on San Juan avenue,
which will cost 81, 600 each.
Robert Rowe will build a frame
cottage in Mountain View addition,
TO cost about 5000.
Prof. F. l.. Abbott will build a
neat frame cottage, the contract
price OF which will be about 5000.
Work was commenced this week
on c. L. Seeley's 81, 900 residence
in Mountain View addition.
Engineer Link Adams will also
build an $500 cottage in the same
addition.
w. A. Hart is figuring on an
$500 residence on his lots on
Ration avenue.
A number OF other residences
are being built IN various parts OF
town and the La unta building
boom is fairly inaugurated

Topeka physicians have a pa
tient who is victim OF what they
call peculiar physical phenome-
non." The patient goes TO bed at
night and wakes up in the morning
with swelled head, which stays
with him all day. That disease is
not uncommon in Colorado. If a
man chooses to have ''swelled
head" in this great commonwealth
no one presumes to deny him the
enjoyment OF the peculiar physi
cal phenomenon" 1t hurts no.

COUNTY FINANCES.

On another page OF this issue
will be found the semi annual state
ment OF the county clerk, showing
the receipts and expenditures OF
Otero county during the six months
ending June 80, 1898. Without
desiring to reflect upon any prev
ious administration, it is no more
than just and right to make a com
parison of the last statement with
the one Immediately preceding in
order to ascertain with what degree
OF fidelity the present county Off
cials have kept their promise to
keep the expenses of their respec-
tive Offices at the lowest possible
figure consistent with efficiency.
For the six months ending De-
cember 81, 1897, the county ordi-
nary expenses, which includes the
officials salary, deputy hire, etc.
were s2o,o7o. SO. For the SIX
months ending June 80, 1898, the
expenses were SI4, 224 II, showing
saving to the people of Otero
county of SO, 6,445.sS.
The fees in the county clerk S
Office have exceeded the expenses
S,SS. 20, which amount has been
turned over to the county. Hither-
to the expenses OF the Office and
the fees have about balanced each
other. The county treasurer has
conducted his Office at an expense
OF but $50 for deputy hire, while il
previous years deputy has beer
employed the year around at ar
expense OF 81, 500 per annum.
