LEGAL POINT.
Some Question as to Whether Elks
Can Secure Lot From Board
Of Education.

There is some doubt as to whether
the Board of Education can legally sell
to the local lodge of Elks the lot in
the Fort Marcy Addition upon which
the fire station is now located, to be
used as an opera house site. Several
attorneys who have taken an interest
in the matter give it as their opinion
that it will be necessary for the Board
OF Education to secure the sanction OF
the territorial legislature. The lot in
question was given to the Board OF
Education by the Territory of New
Mexico for school purposes and the
Board of Education, the attorneys de.
clare, has not the power to sell the
lot or dispose of it in any manner. The
clause upon which the attorneys base
their argument is found in chapter 81,
section 6, laws of 1903, enacted by the
35th Legislative Assembly. 1t reads
as follows:
There is hereby donated and grant
ed in fee simple, to the Board of Edu-
cation of the City of Santa Fe, Terri
tory of New Mexico, (lot as describ.
ed in order that it may be used as a
school house site for the building in
this act provided to be erected, if ii
should be suitable therefor"
The text OF the entire section above
mentioned is not altogether clear, as
regards the power of the Board Of
Education. The attorneys say that in
no part does it give the board the
power to sell the lot or use it other
than for school purposes above speci
fed Members of the Board of Educa
ton are divided in opinion as to the
extent of the boards powers.
Those who have taken the matter
up, say that they are in favor of Civ
ing the lot to the Elks and believe
that 1t would be an ideal place for the
proposed opera house. If it proves
eventually that the Board of Educa
ton cannot give a good title to the
land, the Ells will have but little diff
ficulty in securing the passage of
bill by the legislature, giving them a
good deed to the lot
