ANOTHER S|GNtR OF LOWER SALARY PLEDGE
WANTS ALL THAT IS COMING TO HIM." TOO

1t now seems likely that the county
of Bernalillo's experiment with a COM
bination Democratic-GoO Govern
ment ticket will result in at least one
and possibly two expensive law suits,
with portion, at least, of the county
funds tied up.
Such Is the inference to be drawn
from the demands made by the late
assessor, Sig Grunsfeld. for four per
cent of the collections instead of two
per cent and by the attitude of the
late treasurer j. S. Beayen.
Yesterday Treasurer Edward Pin
rey said that Mr. Beayen had turn
I'd over the office to him but had not
placed him in possession OF a consid-
cradle portion of the county funds.
When a Citizen reporter visited the
treasTrer's Office today, Mr.. Pinney
said that Mr. Beaven had not yet
turned over the funds of the county
to him but he added that he mad re-
Ceived a telephone message from Mr.
Beaven stating that the eX-treasurer
would settle with him some time this
afternoon.
A short time later a representative
Of the Citizen met Mr.. Beaven on the
street and the eX-treasurer informed
him that he was then going to the
cou~y house to settle with the new
treasurer.
Mr.. Beaven said that he proposed
to hold out Of the funds in his pos
session enough to pay himself four
per cent Instead of the two per cent
allowed under the county salary law
enacted by the last legislature, and
despite the fact that Mr.. Beaven is
a Democrat, owed his election to the
Chice in all probability because his
name among others, appeared in the
Journal-Democrat as signers of a
pledge for lower county salaries.
Mr., Beaven was not reluctant to talk
about his attitude. He said in sub
stance:
IF the money I expect to hold out
is not coming to me under the law
do not want it but If the law, as / be-
lieve, Is not good, then l want what
is due me"
Mr.. Beaver made no mention of the
fact that his name appeared among
the signers of the election pledge,
along with that of Sig Grunsfeld and
other candidates, declaring emphatic
Albuquerque citizen. [volume] (Albuquerque, N.M.) 1907-1909, 1909-01-14

ally for lower county salaries and
good government" The pledge, which
caused the people to vote for Mr.
Beaven and his fellow candidates on d
citizens ticket into office. appears to
have been lost in the shuttle
Mn Beaven did not state whether
he intended to bring suit against the
county or the four per cent or wheth-
cr he intended to simply hold the
money and let the county sue him. So
far as the county is concerned it
amounts to the same thing
Mr. Beaver said he had talked by
long distance telephone with the ter
utorial auditor but did not say what
the conversation was about
1t is likely that the territorial audi
tor viii come to Bernalillo county il
Mr.. Beaven insists upon holding the
funds.
THE reason l did not turn the
money over within the ten days the
law gives me-" said Mr. Beaven, was
that l did not have my reports ready
and / was not going to turn over that
money until / knew how much to
turn over. The bank in which the
funds were deposited was ready to
turn lHth over 10 lhC new treasurer
hut | was not ready. 1 will turn over
all funds today, except what / believe
is coming To me and that | win re-
tain until the law reducing county
salaries has been tested in court"
1t looks now as though some very
interesting developments will result
from the action taken by the two
reform county officials, affected by
the lower county salary law" and
the chances appear to be in favor Of
some expensive legal work for the
county.
Gruusfeld has said that he will
bring suit against the county for the
four per cent which he claims and If
Mr.. Beayen does not do the same it
Win likely be necessary for the county
10 bring action against him, to secure
possession Of any funds he may re-
tain. The situation will probably
bring to light some very interesting
legal points and at all events it will
stand as a monument to good govern
ment pledges in Bernalilo county as
demonstrated by at least two of the
men elected on that issue alone.

CUT UP THE BODY
AND BURIED PIECES
A Stranger Who Visited His Farm
Was Shot as He Knocked at
the Door Girl Feared for
Her Life II She
Told.

York Pa, Jan. 14.-Harry Keener,
a York county farmer, confessed to
the officers today that the story told
by Miss Lorenza Tawser, aged 10, that
he had killed a man on his farm last
July was true Keener was arrested
following the disclosure by the girl
and will be held for the crime.
The girl accused Keener while lying
on what she believed to be her death
bed. Her reason for not telling of the
murder sooner was that Keener swore
her to secrecy and threatened to kill
her if she divulged the secret. She told
the officers that Keener shot through
a glass door and killed a stranger who
visited the farm last July.
The girl was a housekeeper for
Keener and says that on the day the
murder was committed she wd.> up
stairs when She heard someone knock
on the door and later heard a shot
fired. She came down and found
keener with the body of the stranger
He took the body to the orchard and
buried it, but later dug it up, dismem-
bered it and buried the pieces in va
rious places.
