present at the meeting J. H. Vaughan

Hoskins of Las Vegas, j. Ortiz y Pin
of Galisteo, and General C. F. Easle!
secretary. Superintendent j. "
Reynolds presented his report cover
ing the affairs of the institution TO
the year 1909. The commissioner
expressed great establishment at tn
very gratifying results as shown b,
the report and took occasion to highl
commend Superintendent Raynold
because Of his efficiency. Despite thu
great handicap of insufficient funds
the superintendent through eXcellen
management has been able to SHOW
a credit balance of nearly $4,000. The
following is a summary of the repor
and speaks for itself:
New Mexicon Penitentiary,
Santa Fe, N. NJ, Dec. 3, 1909.
To the Honorable Board of Peniten
tiary COMMISSIONS:
Gentlemen: All members of the
board are aware of the fact that the
financial outlook for this institution
was decidedly gloomy during the early
part of the year, and that when the
present management was inauguarted
on June 1st, prospects were even less
encouraging. In brief, the situation
may be summarized as follows: Of
the annual appropriation of $4,000
for maintenance there remained but
s2,400, to which should be added the
appropriation for maintenance de-
ficiency" amounting to $4,000, or a
total of $1S,400. Against this how
ever, there were unpaid bills which
aggregated $4,000, and as soon as
these bills were paid there was Gre
ated an apparent Deficiency in the
maintenance fund of nearly $4,000
for the remainder of the fiscal year.
But one source of revenue appeared
through which this deficiency could be
met and that was convicts earnings.
Steps were taken at once, therefore,
to call in every dollar that was col
due this fund and every energy was
also applied to Development of that
particular source of income, the re-
suit being that the average revenue
per month was raised to more than
$4,000, or a total of $25,S7S.3S for the
six months just closed. These in
creased earnings and collections,
coupled with the strictest economy in
expenditures, enables me to report an
actual credit balance of SIS, ,65767 at
the close of the fiscal year, result so
gratifying as to warrant all members
Of the commission and management in
themselves upon the
final outcome:
Financial Summary.
Bills payable Nov. 80. for fuel and
s7.5S9.95.
Supplies on hand Nov. 80, fuel and

of S35, and the average cost per man,

GRAND JURY TAKES UP
CASE OF YOUNG OsREAR.

Socorro, n. NJ, Marcn 23.-The So
zorro county grand jury, which com
n work yesterday morning, to-
day tool up the case of Ernest O'Rear
who is in Jail in Socorro, charged
with having brutally murdered his mo-
Their. Mrs. II. c. O'Rear, in Kelly. on
Sunday morning. O'Rear was not
given a preliminary hearing, his case
being turned directly over to the
grand jury for consideration. A large
number of witnesses from Kelly were
examined by the grand jury today and
much testimony was evidently given
but no inkling Of waat went on in
side the jury found its way to
the outside. It was rumored about the
court house late this evening that 9TH
ers may be connected with the affair
and mat several persons may be ar
rested this morning charged with be-
ing accomplices of O'Rear.
O'Rear maintained unbroken silence
in jail today and refused to make any
comment on the case.
The excitement incident TO the
murder has not yet subsidized in Kelly
and Magdalena, where the O'Rear
family was we'll known. Further re-
ports from Kelly r. to the effect that
Mrs. O'Rear was SO badly beaten with
a shovel, or similar instrument, that
it was with difficulty she was identi-
fed by her closest friends.
There are many people in Kelly
and Magdalena VINO are firm in the
opinion that young O'Rear is the VIC
tim of circumstances and that he nei-
ther killed his mother nor had any
hand in dong 1t. The crime is OF
|suca an inhlInan nature That O'Rear's
friends believe it is impossible that
he did snch a thing, and will refuse to
believe him guilty until he makes the
admission himself.

It has remained for a Republican
newspaper to carry the Democratic
emblem in it's columns, followed by

name would do that. A Republican
paper did. How do you like 1t Dem

And yet this article in the "Strad
der" would lead u3 to believe that
the receipts from the sale of the stun
that wrecks he manhood of men, de
bauches women, and puts children in
rags. is constantly on the increase.
Here are the exact figures of the in
.ernal revenue receipts for the asst
three years from the tax on all kinds
of liquors:

1905 =. - = =. -. 1S9,966.424

What do these figures mean? They
snow beyond any question that the
sale Of loqiror is diminishing yearly on
account of the No-License victories
over The country, and especially in
the Democratic South. These figures
are not merely the totals received
from internal revenue taxes of al
kinds, as in the "Straddler," but the
sums received from the tax on Ii.
quors and nothing else. And they are
growing smaller every year.
The argument made by the "Strad
der" nan is that the government
cannot afford to get along without
this tax. II the government OF the
United states will go broke on &C.
