BOND FINDS JOKER
IN STARR CONTRACT
City Attorney Says White
water River Covers the
Ground in Question.

A real joker was found by City At
torney Bond in a contract which was
submitted by the Starr Piano company
relative to the use of ground below the
light plant on the river. The negOtiO-
tions for the contract were entered
into early this year before the floods.
The situation is unique in that the
ground in question was washed away
by the flood and the Starr Piano com
pany land now forms part of the bed
of the river. The original purpose of
the company in entering into the con-
tract, it is said, was to prevent the
city from extending Johnson street
from The light plant to the river, over
the & lpany's grounds. The city would
have signed it to secure other privi-
leges from the company. One OF the
concessions of the company was the
granting of a privilege to run a sewer
across the ground.
In the contract is a clause which
gives this permission. Following this
is another clause which prevents the
city from emptying any sewage on
the property.

have been to make it appear that the
road overseers and the county com
missioners neglected their legal duty
Now let us point out some interest
ing things about this statement of
the travelling auditor things which
go directly to the competency Of that
official: First: The law Of 1907, in
section 6 Of chapter So, the same
chapter from which the travelling aud
itor quotes so nimbly, provides. This
act shall take effect and be in force
from and after January j, 1908 The
travelling auditor nimbly skips this
section In order to make it appear
that our county commissioners and
road overseers violated the law in
1907, also. AS a matter of fact no
reports were due from the road over
seerss under the law, until December,
1908 That is what the law provides
and anyone who doubts this state
ment can read the law for himself.
The general public will understand it
even if the travelling auditor didn't.
"A representative Of The Optic has
personally examined the files in the
office Of the county clerk and the
record Of the proceedings Of the
board Of county commissioners and
this is what he found:
That for the years 1908 to 1872

seers of san Miguel county filed with
the board of county commissioners

SUCCESS

Mexico City, Nov. 14-Confidence
in the early accomplishment of the
aims of the United States toward
Mexico was expressed today by Mel
son O'Shaughnessy, American charge
d'affaires. The oyertures made by
the Mexican minister Of the interior,
Manuel Cara Aldape, yesterday are
taken as evidence that Huerta is
ready to recede from the stand he
had previously taken.
Although Mr. o'Shaughnessy was
uncommunicative on the subject and
refused information as to any phases
Of the latest developments, it was I'M
derstood that he expected to have a
further conference with senor Aldape
late today
AT this conference it is expected
that the ideas Of Washington as to
the wisdom Of John Lind, the per
sonal representative of President viii
son, returning from Vera Cruz to the
federal capital, or receiving a com
nittee representing Provisional Presi-
dent Huerta, will be made known to
the representative of the provisional
president.
Dispatches from washington pub
lished here today Indicating the prob
ability Of a settlement Of the Mexican
question without resort to arms, which
during the past week appeared here
to be a forlorn hope, created an at
mosphere Of optimism and greatly re-
lived the tension.

The lawr0f this state, section 4,
chapter So, laws of 1907, provide that

reports to the board of county com
missioners at its December meeting
in each year. The reports so re-
quired to be made should contain a
list of all persons in each road dis
trict subject to the road tax; the
names of all persons who have per-
formed work in lieu of paying the
tax: the amount OF money collected
and paid into the county treasury by
each overseer; the amount Of orders
issued in payment for labor, tools, ma
teriaIs, supplies and repairs in CON
nection with the work on roads IN
each district: the purpose for which
such orders were issued; the number
of days each overseer actually served
