Some more comedians have de-
veloPed in La Junta since our last
issue, and the small boy who
stepped against hot stove seems
to be entirely responsible for the
epidemic During the past week
we have received no less than six
more effusiohs of sympathy for the
youngster who had the misfortune
to back up against hot stove,
and we are beginning to nurse the
fond hope that the. aforesaid
youngste. will eventually back up
against the bottomless pit, fall
overheard, and be heard OF "never-
more" sThis would be rather
tough on the small boy, unless he
happened TO have bottle of pain
balm IN his inside pocket. IL is
rather doubtful whether his Sa-
tanic Majesty has yet heard of the
virtues OF tins famous remedy, and
il he has he probably makes every

he did he might lose his job, for

sioners, while in session last We'd
nesday, passed resolution by
which they ihtend to effect "A set
tlement OF the Santa Fe taxes for
the year 1901, aud by which they
agreed to accept the tender OF
$40, 900 made by the railroad com
pany for receipt in full Tor the
taxes for that year. The resolu-
ton reads as follows:
Whereas, grave question has
arisen as to the amount OF taxes
due the county from said company
for the year 1901, and
Whereas. said company has duly
filed its petition with the board Tor
a rebate OF portion OF the taxes
appearing due, and
Whereas, II appears to be for
the best interests OF all parties
concerned that compromise set
tlement be made; now, therefore.
be IT.
Resolved, that the proposition
OF said company for compromise
and settlement OF said taxes due
for said year be and the same is
hereby accepted and that a rebate
of S32. $500 be granted them ac-
cording 10 the prayer OF their petit
ton; and be it further
Resolved, that the county treas
urer OF this county be and hereby
is authorized and directed TO ac-
cept the sum OF $50, in full
settlement of all such taxes, and
he is hereby directed to issue the
usual receipt therefor; and be it
further
Resolved, that the proportionate
amount OF the foregoing tax to be
paid by said railway company be
accepted as a payment on account
of state tax, and in full thereof. so
far as the county commissioners
as collecting agent OF said tax are
authorized and empowered by law
to settle and compromise the same
without rendering the county
liable to the state for any portion
OF said tax and without liability
either official or personal of said
county commissioners or OF the
county treasurer.
The question of issuing a receipt
in full is now up to the county
treasurer. but whether he will do
so or not is extremely doubtful.
The total tax OF the Santa Fe for
the year 1901, due Otero county,
is sos. 335 81. This includes state,
school, municipal and county
taxes. The county commissioners
have authorized aud directed the
county treasurer to accept the sum
of s36, 900 in full settlement of all
taxes, except as to state taxes"
thereby granting them a rebate OF
s31.335,64 according to the prayer
OF their petition.
County Treasurer Beerbohm has
secured a written legal opinion |
from his attorney advising HIM not
to issue the receipt in full as "au-
thorized and directed" by the
county commissioners, for the rea-
son that the county commissioners
have no more power to abate
school and municipal taxes than
they have to abate state taxes
They have the power to abate |
taxes levied for county purposes,
but that is the limit. The legal
question involved covers the right |
of the commissioners to abate
school and municipal taxes Coun-
ty Attorney Dameron advised the
board that IL had NO power to
abate taxes fog either school, n,u-
nicipaI a. state purposes, asd that
the counsy treasurer would be
