 It Is expected that the Governor Will make the appointment in the early part of next week.
 It Is learned authoritativeiy that no charges had been made against Sherin J. M. Reeves and none was impendlng at the time of his resignation. No question involving his honesty has been raised. ills books and the records of ms once are said to be in excellent shape.
 It will be recalled that the announce ment was made that the sherin's bonds men intended to retire from his bond. The next day the sheriff and his bonds men came to Montgomery On that day Sheriff Reeves submitted his resignation to the Governor.
 It Is said that the duties Of the office were not congenial to MT. Reeves. He did not feel, it is said an active interest in his official duties and to this lack of interest Is attributed his resignation.

 ''oh, Hobthon! Hobthon: Kith me Hobthon," cried Commodore weakly. Then with a last gasp his breath left him.
 Officers at the deathbed were moved to tears. Ever since one summers day in 1893. when he flew into the window from no one knows where, Commodore 8 eloquence had won for him the affection of all The silence now at the mess table at the head of which Commodore presided three times day, Is terrible. Not an officer has attempted to joke for the last three days, because Commodore Is not there to say "That'll be erbout all. " The atmosphere around Commodore s vacant cage has lost it's bluish tint.
 During the Spanish American war Com modore was excessively patriotic. Damn the Spaniards" was his favorite excla- nation, and he liked 1t to his dying day. He also took pleasure in screaming: "Rah for Bryan!" 'Hoch der Kaiser!! and 'Shafter the Lobster"

D. /. EGGER WANTS
TO BE SHERIFF

The other day The Herald contain
de notice to the effect that d. l.. Egg
ger Of Pagosa Springs spent the night
in Durango enroute 10 Denver The
cause of his visit is apparent from a
story in the Denver Post. Egger
wants Orman to appoint him sheriff
before retiring from office because he
claims the present sheriff is not a
resident OF Archuleta county, and on
the same ground wants a commission
er appointed in place Of y. NJ Biggs,
which will make the board Democrat
ic. In the first place there has been
no official announcement that part OF
Archuleta county is in New Mexico
and until such declaration is made no
appointments OF Governor Orm IN
will be legal, and will only tend 10
make matters worse. Here is TIE
Denver Post story:
Is A. Bradt who was elected sheriff
of Archuleta county year ago, sheriff
OF the county or merely citizen OF
New Mexico?
This is the question that is looming
up ominously before the Republican
citizens of that county since the
United States survey OF last summer
which some claim in establishing the
boundary line between Colorado and
New Mexico, give the latter about six
six miles the best of it.
Bradt lives n the town of Edith,
which is apparently now six miles
away from the Colorado line in New
Mexico. At the time of the election
however, Edith was a Colorado town.
and it was this precinct which gave
Bradt the shrieyalty, as he received
21S votes in Edith. against for his
opponent, d. L, Egger Of Pagosa
Springs. the Democratic candidate.
AS Bradts majority over his Oppou.
ent was only $50. Egger has come to
Denver to see Governor Ormau and
claim the Office which he believes
rightfuly belongs to him
There is no getting around one
thing, said Esger, as he sat In the
ST James hotel ycsterdaE chat OUT
side of the Edith precinct carried
my county far and away and 1 think
that | am now rightfully elected sher.
if of Archuleta county. and am go.
ing to make a strong fight for it,"
Here is the case right here take
away the 2lS votes Bradt received in
Edith from his 150 majority and that
puts me sixty-eight votes ahead OF
him. can see no reason why my ap.
pointment is not certain, and I will be
