that the books were delivered at

books.
Mr.. Elder does not tell about
the Board ordering all the tele-
phones out Of the Court House,
and not paying for the rentals
of the phones that we're kept a
month after they ordered them
out. However, the board did
condescend to pay for their own
long distance calls made by the
Board themselves. Phones are
a convenience to the public, and
especially so when the fact is
taken into consideration that the
Court House is located FIVE or
six blocks from town, and it was
for the convenience of the tax
payer and public in general mot
that the county officers wanted
them) were they put in-but
the Commissioners decided that
they could better pay the legal
rate (?) and the
SUM OF S1OO6. 95 TO MABRY
for printing the 1911 delinquent
tax list than to pay for tele-
phones for the convenience of
the public.
AS a further illustration of poor
economy they refuse to paw for
actual and much needed supplies
bought by the county officers to
to take care of public property.
Not only this but as a further IL
Illustration of their poor econo-

we need but to call your atten-
ton to the fact that this board

Inside Light on County Ex-
penditures.

ures prepared by one Of our
county officials. and given the
News for publication-gives
some interesting data on the
manner Of the expenditure of
public funds by the board Of
County Commissioners:
Mr.. Elder, Chairman of the
Board Of County Commissioners
tells the people through his little
besmirching machine" at St..
Yrain about the board of County
Commissioners turning down
bills in the sum Of $500 for SUP
plies bought by Mr.. Await. that
was ordered unbeknown and
without the authority of the
Board. \
Now, it is a well known fact
that all of the county officer. had
been buying such supplies as
they needed ever since they have
been in office, and the Commits
sioners had been paying and did
pay for everything purchased
with the exception of the ac-
counts turned down at the April
meeting.
Mr.. Elder does not tell you
that among the bills turned down
by them for essentials purchased
by Mr.. Await were something
like $500 worth. which were
bought upon the instructions and
orders of the Travelling Auditor,
and that it included a full set of
books for the District Court,
County Clerk, Probate Clerk and
Clerk to the Board of Commits
sioners; and that the 1912 state
legislature provided that the
Travelling Auditor prepare a uni
form set of books and accounts
for the county officers of the state
and that it also provided that the
County officers should install
these books as soon as forms
were furnished, and provided a
PENALTY for any county officer
failing to purchase and install
said books in his Office.
Among the items turned dowr
shat were purchased by Mr..
Await we note S192 worth Of
book shelving, Document Files
Jury Book, Jury Tickets, Etc.
bought for the use Of the Dis
trict Court. Evidently it is pre-
sumed that Mr.. Elder desire.
that the Clerk pile up the books
documents, files, ETC., of thu
District court in a corner of tn,
vault where they may be des
troyed, lost and mislaid that j
is his desire that deeds, patents
mortgages filed with the COUNTY
Clerk be filed and piled up OF
the floor in the vault and not re
corded as required by law, as i
seems that he docs not want t,
buy or pay for any books il
which to record instruments
1t might be well to remembe.
that among the accounts turned
down by the board were S153 81
worth, purchased by the County
Treasurer, some of which wa.
purchased as early as May 1912
but / presume they were no
paid at that time because tn
Board was saving up money t,

Sudden Death of Gaines
Otis Shocks Entire City

Durango people were shocked last
evening TO learn that Gaines Otis, one
of the city's most prominent and
promising young men, has passed
away, in California. At $3.50 in the
afternoon a message came from Palo
Alto, that he was very i'll. At $3.50
message saying he had passed away
followed. No details were given, but
according to press report, heart
failure was the cause of death
Gaines r. Otis was the eldest son
of James Otis of this city He was
born in Colorado Springs 27 years
ago. When he was two years of age
the family moved to Durango and
have since made this section and city
their home.
Gaines graduated from the local
high school in the class of 1906. Later
he attended Leland Stamford, taking
course in civil engineering. He did
not complete his course, however, but
returned home and was associated in
business with f. II. Burdick, under
the firm name Of Burdick and Otis
Last year he disposed of his interest
in the business to Allison Groeger and
returned to the university to com
plete his work. In order to finish at
an early date, he continued his stud
les during the summer months and
would have received his degree at
Christmas time.
The news of his untimely death was
a shock to all his friends--and every
body in Durango was his friend. All
sorts, kinds and conditions of people
shared his acquaintance and held
him in the highest respect. He was
boy who was not only credit to
his family, but one of whom the COM
munity at large was proud and just
ly so.
Less than four months ago, Mrs.
Otis, Gaines mother, passed away
after very brief illness. Now the
husband and father has had to give
up his first born without a moments
warning.
Yesterday Mr.. Otis went to Farm
ington to comfort his cousin, Mrs.
McHenry, whose husband had just

death came after the train had left
for Durango, so it was impossible
for him to return home until this
evening. Ben Otis, the only remain
ing son of the family, came down
from Silverton this morning to be
with the sisters, Jane and Anna, who
were at the family home in Durango
with their aunt, Mrs. Culver, when
the message of the death came.

George Connolly Killed
in Runaway Accident

George Connolly, well known
Florida mesa ranchman met death
sometime last evening when the team
he was driving ran away and threw
him under the wheels of the wagon,
injuring him about the head so SER
iously it is believed that the end
came instantly.
The accident occurred near the Car
bon Junction wagon bridge. The first
news of it was brought to the city
shortly before o'clock this morning
by Mexican who found the body in
the road but was unable to identify
it. Coroner Hood was Immediately
notified and motored out to the scene.
Fully mile before he reached the
body evidence of the runaway was
noted by the zig-zag wagon track in
the road.
A short distance from the bridge
the wagon seemed to have struck Il
rock and threw Connolly under the
wheels, cutting and crushing his
head. There was every thing to
indicate that he met instant death.
A little way further, the team had
failed to make the sharp turn down
to the bridge but had gone directly
over the bank down to the waters s
edge, the wagon was completely de-
molished and one horse was killed.
The other animal was found standing
beside his dead mate. All along the
trail of the runaway, groceries and
coal were strewn.
Mr.. Connolly delivered dairy pro-
ducts in the city yesterday and load
ed out with coal, groceries and sacks
for threshers. 1t is thought he left
town between and in the evening.
1t has happened on a number of oc-
casions before he has remained over
night in Durango without advising his
family of his intentions, so when he
failed to return last night, it did not
seem necessary to search for him.
After bringing the remains back to
the undertaking parlors, Mr. Hood
and Sheriff Fassbinder went to the
mesa and told Mrs. Connolly and
daughter Of the terrible accident.
Later Mr.. Hood motored to Allison to
break the news to the eldest unmar-
ried daughter, who is a teacher in the
schools there.
The Connellys are old time resi-
dents Of the mesa. Before engaging
in farming, Mr.. Connolly was a drug
fist. He was well educated man
with much native ability.
In addition to his wife he is sur.
vived by three daughters, the eldest
resident of Los Angeles. No fun.
eral arrangements will be made unit
a message is received from her.
