Mounted Police Bill Appears

The council held a short session
yesterday morning in which several
measures suggested by the cattle
sanitary board were introduced.
Some OF them we're the bills requir-
Ing meat pedders to carry with them
the hide OF the animal and fixing a
penalty for not obeying, and the bill
prohibiting the running lof unreg-
istered brands.
Mr.. Greer then introduced the bill
providing the formation, duties and
| maintenance OF the mounted police
force for New Mexico. In practically
all points the bill is copy OF the
Arizona Ranger law, except that In
the New Mexico bill the force is
| much smaller, II provides for one
captain at s125 month. one sergeant
at $75 a month, and not TO exceed
eight men at $55 month. these men
to provide their own horses and arms,
ammunition and provisions being furn-
ished by the territory when the men
are In action, and replacing all horses
killed while the rangers are on duty.
A general levy Of one.half Of one
mi1l Is provided 10 meet the expense
which Mr.. Greer says will not exceed
$4,000 year. The bill will probably
be somewhat amended In committee.
