noon appoint Frank Lopez, coal oil in
spector. to succeed MalaQuias Marti-
nez for the three months that the job
will still be in existence. 1t is also
understood that he will issue definite
orders in regard to the proposed prize

Frank Lopez, who qualified as coal
oil inspector today, is Rio ArrlDa
county Democrat who lives at Park
view where he has large stock inter-
ests. Governor Mcdonald late this
afternoon said he enjoyed his visit to
the teachers institute at Belen yester-
day, very much. He addressed the
teachers In regard to the prize light
at Las Vegas he had no definite an
nouncement to make as yet, except as
to what had been stated prior to this
by him. He regrets very much that
the people of Las Vegas went into the
affair He is looking up a number OF
points now and the impression is that
in a few days he will announce def
nitely whether he will take any eX-
traordinary measures to prevent the
fight.
The appointment of Lopez for coal
oil inspector like that Of Martinez, is
Il recess appointment, and the ap-
l,ointment is only until the law abro-
eating the position goes into effect in
September The assertion is made
that this bill had the emergency clause
but if it did, it never reached the
governor in that form, and therefore
the law does not go into effect until
ninety days have expired.
