According to the weather reports of
the past few days from the middle
states and the northwest. also from Cal
%ifornia, Santa Fe had only the flag end
of the storm that ragged through the
country during the past week. 1t was
bad enough here, but just imagine how
much worse it vas elsewhere.
1t is reported around town that Henry
Essinger, the Las Vegas liquor mer-
chant, during his last visit here was
trying to circulate a petition praying
that Governor Otero should not be re.
appointed. The New Mexican does not
vouch for the truth of this report. 1t
may be so and it may not. If it is so,
certainly there were not many sigma
natures obtained in Santa Fe.
Electric street railroads are all right,
but in the meantime the city authori-
ties ought to pay some attention to the
dilapidated and dangerous sidewalks
in many parts of the city.
There is a great deal of money due
the couNty from delinquent tax payers.
1t is understood that the tax suits now
pending will be taken up by District
Attorney Gortner next week. The
sooner the better.
Inc territorial supreme court meets
ON the third Monday in January in this

New Mexican Printing company has
the best facilities in the territory to
turn out brief and record work neatly,
correctly, quickly, and at lowest pos
sible figures. Bring your work here
and satisfaction is guaranteed.
These days when the sun sets early,
the electric light Scurrent should be
turned on at four O'clock. Many bust
ness men desire this, and have called al
the New Mexican office to say this.
Manager Sparks, who is always will
ing to oblige the patrons and the pub
lie, will no doubt look into this matter,
and if possible will comply with the de-
sires of the business community.
