In our reminiscent columns the
Tribune makes mention of the fact
that the bonded Indebtedness of Ote-
ro county during the first year OF
its existence was one and one-half
per cent OF the assessed valuation.
We have made some progress In
twenty years. AT the present time
the bonded Indebtedness OF Otero
county is $500 which is about seven
one-hundredths OF one per cent OF
the present assessed valuation Of
ss,3s5,576.

OFF the new county of Otero's share
OF the Indebtedness OF old Bent coun-

OF August of the present year. The
court house bond issue OF 81 800 was
issued in 1897 and two OF the $500
bonds lave been paid. reducing the
bonded Indebtedness to $500, which
amount represents the total bonded
Indebtedness OF Otero county at the
present time.

payment of the bonds has been going

when they were issued. AT the pres.

be utilized In taking up the present
outstanding warrants on the road
fund. and In building bridges and i'm.

ly one-half OF the available funds OF
the county are expended each year
on the roads and the road fund Is
always oyerdrawn. & saving would
be made on interest, as the registered
