OTERO COUNTY APPOINTMENTS.
(Tularosa Democracy
The Sacramento Chief, in it's last is
sue, says:
I'VE are sorry that Governor Otero
failed to recognize the mountain sec
ton of the county in the appointment
of county officials. Here is located a
majority of the taxpayers of the coun-
ty, and they are all good, honest peo-
pie, and most all able to fill any official
position, and they are recognized only
to the extent of one county commission
err and the county surveyor. If Gov
ernor Otero desired to build up his par
ty and himself in Otero county he has
certainly failed
If we remember rightly the editor of
the Chief was instrumental in calling
a mass meeting of the Republicans of
Otero county to discuss the matter of
slate was made up and approved by
the meeting, to be recommended to the
governor when he came to AlamOgordo.
The appointments were afterwards
made by Governor Otero substantially
as agreed upon at that meeting, except
that meeting, or the leaders thereof,
were opposed to the appointment of
any Democrat. Last week the Demo-
crat indorsed every appointment made
by the governor, and it now re-indorses
them. Geographically speaking, we
think hat they might have been a lit
tie more regularly distributed over the
county. We agree with the Chief that
the people of the mountain section of
the county are honest and capable of
filling most any official position, and for
that reason we believe that Governor
Otero will have the Endorsement of all
those people in the appointments re-
Gently made. We think that Governor
Otero, in making those appointments,
sought to build up" the Republican
party of Otero county as much as posi-
BILE, and was no doubt fully advised of
the fact that the mountain country Is
almost solidly Democratic, and COM
posed of such Democrats as his party
could hope to gain nc assistance from,
hence his political wisdom in going
elsewhere in making a majority of his
appointments.

New York, March Roland b. Mol
ineux was today indicted by the grand
iury for murder in the first degree in
causing the death of Mrs Katherine J.
Adams. The finding Of the indictment
does away with a hearing before the
coroner, and there will be small chance
for Molineux's counsel to take any
steps in his behalf until the case ac-
tually comes to tilal.
The case of Molneux was placed on
the calendar for pleading, and he will
be arraigned before Recorder Goff to-
morrow. He will, probably then
be remanded to the Tombs without
bail.
