SANTA FE COUNTY TO
ASSESS HOLDERS
Of BONDS
District Attorney Renders
opinion on Judgments as
Taxable Property.
COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
ENDORSE ASSESSOR
Special to The Evening Citizen.

Special to The Evening Citizen.
Santa Fe, N. M, June 21.-The
board of county commissioners for
Santa Fe county met in special ses-
sion today and approved of the ac-
ton of the county assessor, Marcel
ino Ortiz, in placing on the assess
ment rolls judgments rendered in
favor of eastern bond holders some
time ago on delinquent coupons of
Santa Fe county bonds refunded in
1922.
The judgments amount approx
mately to $250,000 and bear from
five to six per cent interest.
District Attorney r. c. Gortner has
advised the county commissioners
that the action of the assessor is well
within the law. The district attorney
bonds and coupons within the limits
of the county and territory and judg-
ments such as are held in this case,
are not in any manner exempt from
taxation.
If the courts uphold the district at
torney, this county will be greatly
benefited. Santa Fe county is heavily
in debt and the amount of indebted
ness as the result of compound in
terest is growing larger yearly.
Several of the best attorneys in the
territory have expressed the opinion
that the district attorneys views are
sound.
There remains no doubt, however,
that the persons and companies hold
ing these bonds will take the mat
ter into court, which will invalidate
their bonds during that time by plac-
ing blemish on their selling values.
Santa Fe county has made repeat
ed efforts to secure a settlement of
her debts without avail. 1t is abso-
lutely impossible under present con-
ditions for the county to make much
headway towards paying her indebt-
edness but should the district attor-
ney be upheld by the courts, the
county would have quite an income
from these sources where all is now
going out and nothing coming in.

Action Taken TO Suppress Dis
orders Which May Follow Joint
Proclamation by Social
Democrats and

st. Petersburg, June 21.-An inn
perial ukase has been issued to the
governors of practically all the prov
inces of Russia, where some form of
martial law has not already been
proclaimed, according them special
powers, empowering them to suspend
newspapers, disperse meetings, BAN
ish undesirable persons and to take
other measures for the maintenance
of the public security by the admin
istrative process without having to
resort to the courts, and to inflict
punishment up to three months inn
prisonment and $500 fine.
To Head on Disorders.
This step was taken to head off the
agrarian disorders. the possibility of
which is believed to be greatly in
creased by the determination of the
social democrats, the social revolu-
tionlsts and members of the Group
of Toll" to issue a Joint manifesto to
the nation, urging the people not to
accept the "aristocratic regime con-
law" but to defend the idea of pop
ular representation by force.
Unlimited Power.
The immense power that is thus
placed in the hands of the governors
of all Russian provinces is unequalled
in the history of the nation.
The rulers of the Russian people
have always had vast power, but the
administration of matters concerning
life and death has heretofore been
held in the hands II the ezar or q
few of his representatives. but now
the power Is practically extended tc
petty officials without number.
The conditions In the inland prov
inces could hardly be worse than In
the past, but 1t is believed that the
deprivation of the people of the right
to appeal to the courts, thus at leas
giving them a show of protection
will be the means of melting num-
berless riots.

GAS TROUBLES ARE
ENDED FOREvERMORE

The Albuquerque Gas Electric
Light and Power company is in a
better position today to give its local
patrons first class gas and light SER
vice than ii has ever been in the past.
The large gas compressor, usually
called a booster" which was INSTALL
ed in the gas plant recently, was
placed in operation last night and the
effect was noticed by the patrons i'm
mediately for the lights were brighter
and the how of gas stronger.
The booster manufactures l2O,-
600 cubic feet Of gas every twenty
four hours ana combined with the
water gas machine, which has a ca
p8city of 10000 cubic feet Of gas,
the local gas plant has the largest
capacity of any plant in the south

seven men during the last few
weeks, preparing the booster" ma
chine for operation.

to slice of the greater part of her
nose.
DR.. Bason, who lives nearby, i'm

believes 1t will eventually graft itself
properly and leave scarcely a scar,
as it was severed as evenly as If done

RIO OR RANDE'S RAPID
RISE CAUSES
ALARM
Deputy Sheriff Patrols Old
BarelaS Bridge Watching
Its Battle With Flood.
STRUCTURE MAY GO
AT ANY MOMENT

The Rio Grande is on the worst
tear of the season and is rising stead
lily. Portions of two supporting piers
of the Barelas bridge have been
washed away and a deputy sheriff on
horseback is now patroling the bridge
keeping a watchful eye on its con-
dition.
The bridge is believed to be more
unsafe than usual and no one is al
lowed to cross it at more than a
snail's pace.
So far the river has not done great
damage except to the farm lands
lying in very low portions of the val
ley. These lands are covered by wa
ter and the crops theron will be lost.
The low land on both sides of the
river is flooded.
River Shows Big Rise.
According to the records kept at
the office of County Surveyor Pitt
Ross, by his deputy, Mr.. Collins, the
big river has risen six and one half
feet within the last AS hours and is
still going up.
If the river continues to rise as it
has been doing as the result of the
recent heavy rains, the Barelas
bridge may have hard work to with
stand the force of the water.
Farms Flooded.
Northwest of the bridge on the
west, or Atrisco side, are a number
of fine fields of alfalfa and wheat
and these have been protected here
tofore from high water by dykes
made of rocks, brush and dirt, but
for the past two days the water has
flowed over the dykes and flooded the
farms. Part of the protecting dykes
have been washed away.
on the Barelas or east side of the
river, to the earth wall, north of Ba-
relas, the district is flooued but no
danger is apprehended, as the wall is
sufficiently high to protect the town.
The river is as treacherous as usual.
Yesterday its main channel followed
the center of the river bed, passing
under the middle of the Barelas
bridge. Today the channel is on the
west bank, eating into the Atrisco
sands. A large amount of drift, logs
and brush has accumulated along
the banks.
Railroad Bridge Safe.
While the water is only a few feet
from the floor of the Santa Fe rail-
road bridge south of the city, the
bridge is protected by stone and ce-
ment dykes, which prevent any dan
ger there.
Because of the height of the river
and the drowning of three of their
number last Sunday in an overturned
ferry, the Isleta Indians have aban-
dOned all attempts to cross the
stream.
The cause Of the rapid rise is at
tributed to local rains and melting
snow in the mountains of Colorado.

TtL[GRAPHERS OUT
IN SAN FRANCISCO

San Francisco, Cal. June 21.-The
telegraph operators in the employ of
the Western Union and Postal COM
panies in San Francisco and Oakland
will probably strike today.
The strike will be purely local, and
will not effect the eastern offices.
President Smell, of the Commercial
Telegraphers' union, said the calling
of the strike depends on the treat
ment accorded a union committee by
the telegraph officials here.
II the companies will give the men
a satisfactory statement, or agree to
arbitrate, there will be no strike. II
they decline to receive the committee,
the men will walk out

WHY AOKI IS TO HOLD
HIS OFFICIAL
POSITION
Japanese Foreign Minister
Has Notified Department
TO That Effect.
BACKED BY BOTH
POLITICAL PARTIES

New York, June 21.-The formal
announcement by Viscount Hayashi,
the japanese minister of foreign af-
fairs, in a Toxic dispatch published
today, that Ambassador Aoki is to be
retained at Washington, is regarded
here as a clearly established evidence
that the present Japanese ministry,
headed by Marquis Saionji, has as
sured itself of the support of both
the Unionists and Conservative par
ties in its present attitude toward
America.
VIII Remain Here.
The announcement of Aokis recall
had been made public in japanese
papers, as well as in American, but
the foreign minister now denies that
any such action was ever taken, and
insists that Aokis course in handling
the San Francisco matter has met
with the governments approval at all
times.
That Aoki is to remain in this
country as Japan's accredited repre-
sentative is the announcement con-
tanned in an official notice received
by the state department.
