and it was one of the most en-
thusiastic, earnest meetings of mer-
chants and taxpayers ever held in the

discussion on the important subject of
county division was INDUCED in by a
number present, a telegram being read
from Senator Thos, Hughes. saying "if
the people of Albuquerque wan the
county divided he will be glad to lead
the movement" This meeting result
cd in the unanimous endorsement of
the following series of resolutions:
Resolved, That in the opinion of this
board and the citizens of Albuquerque
the sentiment of the citizens of the
city Of Albuquerque, irrespective of
politics, Is practically unanimous in
favor of a division of the county, sub
stantially as proposed in the bill re-
Gently introduced into the legislature
for the creation of the county of San
doval, and that the details of such divi-
sion are not of great Importance TO the
people of Albuquerque.
Resolved, That 1t is the sentiment
of said meeting that the business in
terests of the city Of Albuquerque
would best be subserved by having as
small and compact a county as posi-
BILE, and to that end, the meeting IA
| vors the lines of the proposed county
as contained in the original bill and
would be satisfied with even a smaller
county.
Resolved, That all that the people OF
| Albuquerque desire as to the appor.
tionment of the public debt between
the two counties, is thai it should be
made upon a fair and equitable basis,
and this meeting adheres to its recon-
mendation concerning such apportion.
nent, which was made at its meeting
OH Friday. February 10, 1908, to which
no objection has been made by any
| one.
Resolved, That the division of repre-
sentation in the legislature for the
three counties of B~ernalillo, Mckinley
and Sandoval, is of minor importance
so long as the total representation il
not diminished.
Resolved, That while the citizens o
Albuquerque would undoubtedly pre-
fer that the new county should com
into existence at an early day, yet tn
proposition that that county shall nc
begin until January 1st, 1905, as sc
out in said bill pending before the les
islature is not so Objectionable tina
citizens of Albuquerque oppose tn
. bill on hat account.
Resolved, That copies of these resc
%lutions be sent to the members of bot
Legislative houses and that the men
bers from Bernalillo county be il
~structed to carry out the wishes of thi
Injecting as expressed in these resolr
tions.

Brief Resume of the Big Mass Meetings

sDay before yesterday The Citizen
announced that it had received several
Communications on the county divis.

ID the writer's used words that would
not look pleasant or decent in public

WSince then The Citizen has been re
chested, verbally and by letters, to re.
phblish the proceedings of meetings

Territorial council proceedings of last
Saturday, to find that Councilman Geo.

tSwns without the voters of the latter
hAyingsa voice in the matter. The
Albuquerque voters. in the past, voted
down the proposition to annex Bare
las, and the reason for bringing tn'
annexation question W in the legisla
ture is a scheme which the people here
do NOT relish. The people of Old Al
buQuerque are to be commended fol
taking prompt action in opposing this
scheme
