How Much May Be Cut for the Use OF

Much doubt exists in the minds Of

Limitation of their privileges to the use
Of timber from public lands, says the
Santa Fe New Mexican. Special Agent
Max Pracht has had a wide range Of
correspondence bearing upon the sub
ject To condense the matter and pro-
vide an Official ruling which could be
easily understood. Mr.. PIscht submit
ted number of cases to the commits

the following letter has been received
from Commissioner Binger Hermann.
Mr.. Pracht asks the courtesy of the
New Mexican and other newspapers In
publishing this for general information:
81 have your letter of June o, 1899,
enclosing letter from Estevan Flores,
inquiring as to the law relating to the
cutting Of public timber.
"My letter of May 23, 1899, replying

A United States Senator Chare-

Service Law.
SENATOR GALLINGER THE MAN
Staid Concord. N. H., Is the
Scene of a Sensational
Proceeding.

CONCORD, N. H., July ll.-Repre-
sentatives of the United States Civil
Service bureau began their sitting here
today for the purpose of investigating
charges preferred against Senator
Jacob ii. Gallinger of Concord, by for
mer Republican governor, Charles A.
Busiel, alleging violations of the civil
service law during the last campaign
In this state.
The specific charge is that Senator
Gallinger, chairman of the Republican
state committee, distributed circulars
appealing to Republican Office holders
for contributions to the campaign
funds. The civil service commission
ers. j. b. Harlow and Mark s. Brewer,
who arrived here from Washington last

Give Pure Water.

For quenching thirst, nothing else
equals pure, cool water. For cleansing,
it has no rival. For promoting the
growth Of plants, it 10 indispensable.
The old geography said land without
water was desert. 1t is also true that
land with only half enough water is
semi-desert. The flowing streams have
always guided the steps OF the explorer
and pioneer.
The GslIinas river, with abundance
of water, was the eindex finger pointing
to beautiful valley. On its banks
has grown beautiful city. Who can
say that Las Vegas came without invi-
tation9 For many years as hostess,
this lively astream ran here and there,
serving "a)l who might come, and free
to ALL"
Alasl How changed is the appear
ance of that hostess today. Hindered,
dismembered, imprisoned, no longer
free, she loses her tranquility and
rushes at US in reyengeful mood; rolled,
soiled ,cursing ''all who might come and
refusing even for price the blessings
she once SO freely gave. In her turbid
waters there is disease and death; water
which holds in solution 9 perceptible
amount of organic matter becomes
pntrid and is deleterious co good health.
Bad water produces diarrtoea. and
propagates dysentery and typhoid and
typhus fevers.
Rescue the Gallinas from captivity,
break her fetters, restore her former
tranquility and usefulness, and avoid
the pestiIence now so imminent.

BOARD OF EDUCATION.
Held an Interesting and Important Meet
Ing Last Night.

An interesting meeting of the board
of education of the East Las Vegas
school district was held last evening
and considerable business was tran
sacted.
Applicants for positions were given
formal notification that salaries for the
ensuing year would not exceed $50 per
month. Only a few vacancies in the
corps of instructors exist.
1t was ordered that local dealers
be asked to submit bids for
the furnishing of fuel for
the ensuing year. Said fuel to con-
slst of either hard or soft coal or wood.
The board authorized the making of
needed repairs on the Douglas avenue
school building.
The tuition fees for non-residents
were placed at the same rate as last
year. Pupils attending grades one to
six, inclusive, will be required to pay
fee of 50 and those attending the
seventh and eighth grades a fee of
$3.50.
The Salt Lake college, which has sue
ceeded the Boston Congregational So
eiety jp the ownership of the academy
building on Douglas avenue, submitted
proposition to sell the building and
grounds to the board of education for
the sum of 81 500. The offer was re-
jected. It is understood to be the in
tention of the Salt Lake college people
to convert the academy building into
private residences if sale cannot be
made. The grounds have frontage
on Douglas avenue of l50 feet or more,
but whoever shall succeed to the owner
ship of the buildings will be required
to make alterations and repairs. This
is one of the reasons, it is stated, why
the local board of education refused to
consider the purchase of the property.
The judiciary committee was in
structed to interview District Attorney
Spiesa IN relation to the suit brought
against ex-County Collector Carlos
Gabaldon and his bondsmen for the re-
covery of $1,000 school money and
about $4,000 Of seity funds. For some
reason, 1t is stated, trial of the suit
in question has been delayed in the
courts aad the board of education de-
sires that proceedings be pushed instead
of delayed, as has been the caae. Ca
baIdon received the money in question
and has been unable to account for it
since leaving the oficeI in other words,
was short in bis accounts.
Nothing further coming before the
board, adjournment was taken.

THEY MEET TONIGHT.
Officials OF the Romero Hose Company
To Consider the Building PROPOSE
zion.

A joint meeting of the board of trus-
tees and the finance committee Of the
E. Romero hose company will be held
this evening st o'clock at the COM
pany headquarters to take action in the
matter of building an addition to the
present quarters The company has
been notified by the eastern manufac-
turers that the new apparatus is ready
for shipment and that on and after the
goth of the month storage charges will
accrue. The boys are anxious, there
fore, to have it forwarded without de-
lay and the present building will have
to be enlarged to accommodate it on its
arrival.
The Romero hose company is an in
company and has about ex-
hausted its treasury in paying for the
new apparatus. The meeting tonight
will therefore look after the finances
The sum Of about $500 will ,be needed
in order to secure requisite enlarge
ment of the building and loan will be
necessary but 1t is said that individual
members stand ready to advance the
amount.
There is some talk to the effect that
the hose company may meet with legal
difficulties in the way of enlarging the
building. An adjoining property own
er, who has second-story window that
will necessarily be closed up, threatens
to petition the courts for an injunction
to restrain the company from shutting
off his light. The threat is not taken
seriously, however, by the hose COM
pany members, who assert that they
are building on their own premises and
that the window in the property ad
joining was built at the owners risk.
