Dear Friend:

Thought would say hello from

ed around but have not seen Willie,
the Kaiser, as yet. This is very
nice country, and am glad to be at
my old home once more, but Uncle
Sam is good enough for me, and
so tar New Mexico suits me little
better than what have seen. The
weather here is very changeable;
rain, snow, cold and sunshine all
in twenty-four hours.
notice since l was here last
that the country has progressed
some, but they are behind us in
nearly everything, and it is mainly
to be attributed to their smallness,
and what l would term old foggish-
ness. American money is not
counterfeit here. 1t looks good to
the tradesman and all of them.
You may tell my Tucumcari
friends and patrons not to forget

rain any more in New Mexico, but
the very first time he is caught
without the coat the rain came in

WILL SCHOOL DIREC.
TORS HOLD OVER?

Quite blunder was made in the
new educational law and it is too
late to remedy it now. Under a
section of the law recently passed
the election of school directors
takes place on the first Monday of
April of each year. That day falls
next Monday and it is impracticable
to inform boards of school direc-
tors and county superintendents
of the change, hence it is presumed
that the boards of district school
directors now in office and elected
June last, will remain in the po-
sition until new elections can be
had on the first Monday in April,
1908. This is not right but there
seems to be no way out of it

TITLE LAW AGAIN
BEFORE COURT
New Test Case to Deter
mine the Proper Workings
of the McEnerney Act
OTHER SUITS WAIT

Another important legal action to
determine the proper workings Of the
McEnerney act has gone before the
Supreme Court in the form of petit
ton for a writ Of mandamus requir-
ing Judge Murasky to enter judgment
in the suit Of Robert o. Hosmann for
the restoration of title to certain prop
erty in San Francisco. Hosmann con-
formed "a all the requirements of the
act but failed TO swear that he had
made an effort to find rival claimants,
a necessity suggested by the Supreme
Court in its recent decision Affirming
the validity Of the McEnerney act. If
the writ be denied, about 500 suits for
restoration Of title virtually Will be
thrown out Of court.
In giving its decision in support of
the legality Of the McEnerney act, the
Supreme Court went out of its way
to state that a claimant to a piece of
property should make affidavit to the
effect that he had made due effort to
find other claimants. AS the act does
not specify such a condition, numerous
suits filed previous TO the decision Of
the Supreme Court did not conform to
it, and it is for the purpose of forever
setting the matter at rest that the Su-
preme Court was asked to make its
decision more definite in this. regard.
Hosmanns attorneys, Sullivan &
Sullivan and Theo. J. Roche, presented
10 the Supreme Court in connection
with the petition for a writ OF man
date a brief giving their arguments
against the necessity of claimants
hunting for rivals where affidavit had
been made that none such could le-
gally exist. 1t was argued by them
that a man who knew that no other
person had a claim on his property
would be at sea regarding any effort
that would be required Of him to deter
mine the existence of an impossible
rival
1t is quite certain that the Supreme
Court viii issue an alternative writ of
mandate, requiring the case to be ar
gued before the court
Cases for the restoration of title
now pending in the Superior Court
probably will be delayed until the
present issue shall have been decided

ToRRENs ACT FAVORED
Real Estate Men Urge Its Use I'm the
Transfer of Property

At a meeting of the Real Estate
Board held yesterday, at which ]. r.
Howell presided, the report of a spe-
cial committee was received and adopt
ed, urging the use of the Torrens act
in the transfer of real estate. The COM
mittee reported that the methods at
present employed in San Francisco
were costly and time-consuming The
Torrens act is now before the Supreme
Court on test case and the real es-
tate men pledged the necessary sum
to press the issue.
The special committee was composed
Of f. ID. Hoag (chairman). O. o. Bald
win. David Rich. /. II. Mooser and J.
H Speck tt reported that the sys-
tenn now in vogue, requiring the en-
ployment Of experts to search titles,
and involving delay and annoyance,
was unnecessarily cumbersome. In
this connection the report said:
In short. the system now II vogue in San
Francisco and throughout the state In register
ing and transferring land title is not by any
means what il should be. II Is cumbersome,
costly. uncertain and the cause Of untold annoy
ance. 1t must and viii be replaced by a more
modern, up-todate system. In San Francisco,
particularly. II is impossible The public rec
Ords having been destroyed abstracts Of them
property in the city is established under the
McEnerney act, or otherwise, il viii be but a
short time before the abstracts viii again be-
come large. tt IS therefore necessary that a
change be made and we recommend that the so
called Torrens act be earnestly and seriously
considered.
The Torrens act was passed by the
Legislature in 1897 under the title, can
act for the certifcation of land titles
and the simplifcation Of the transfer
Of real estate" Although the act has
been on the statute books for ten
years. it has never been utilized.
According to its provisions, suit may
be begun in much the same manner as
under the McEnerney act. AS soon as
judgment is rendered. title may oe
obtained. This will obviate the long
and tedious method of digging through
innumerable abstracts and Will elm
mate the technicaliies which delay
proceedings under the present system
The Torrens system prevails in Aus
tralia and in several Of the Eastern
States, where, it is said, II has proved
highly satisfactory.
