TO ADVERTISE FOR
BIDS ON NEW BUILDING.

AT the meeting of the Board of Re-
gents of the New Mexico Military
Institute yesterday it was decided to
advertise at once for bids for the
erection of the new building that is
to be put up this summer at the Ia
stitute. The bids will be opened May
IL and the work will be started i'm
mediately after the close of school.
l.. H Rapp, of Trinidad, Colo. of the
firm Rapp Bros, who drew the plans
for the new structure, was at the
meeting, and he predicts that it will
take six months to complete the
work. AS Record readers will most
of them remember, the new building
is to be a barracks of ~ rooms, with
bath, furnace heat and closet for
each. Before adjournment the Board
made all final plans for h new
building and arranged details as to
the letting of contract, etc. w. A.

noon and organized with h follow
ing officers: Col. Wilson, PRESIDENT;

by any person or association of per-
sons to give this lot, although the
would be a valuable asset for

ing.

DEMocRAIc TICKET
WINS AT ARTESlA.

Special to the Daily Record.
Artesia, April 8.-The city election
here yesterday resulted in the cleo
ton of the entire Democratic ticket
by majorities averaging about twenty.
The Citizens ticket put up a fight,
but had no chance to win, because it
was simply Republican in disguise.
The candidates of both sides were
pledged to carry out the wishes of
the voters as recently expressed on
prohibition of saloons. There was
some excitement last night when
some of the judges refused to u
the votes on the ground that there
had been Illegal voting, but the trou-
BILE was finally averted when they
were finally induced to make the
count. J. F. Highsmith, j. R. Creath,
H. H. Hess, E.. B. Kemp and John
Majors were elected councilmen, and
from their number they will select a
mayor, or rather chairman of town
board, and clerk. VIM. Benson was
elected treasurer. G. E. Fatheree and
s.. w. Gilbert were elected members
of tn school board.
DIR. Graham came the closest to
election of n ma on the Citizens
ticket, being but two votes below the
lowest man on the Democratic ticket
running for councilman.
