PICK CENTER Of
VALLEY FOR ROAD
County Commissioners De
eide Upon Route, Provided
RightsOfway Are Secured.

Because they believed it preferable
the county commissioners chose a route
through the center of the valley, in
stead Of up to the foothills for the new
north loop road. This road is to begin
at the five mile bridge in the lower
valley and swing around to Fabens
All rights of way and promises Of grad
ing have not been made and if they
should fail in this, it is possible that
TIE other route may have to be chosen
in its stead. But owners of property
in the center of the valley expressed
the opinion that all details would lie
properly arranged, so the road can be
built as suggested
County judge A S. J. Eylar reported
that ne and mayor Kelly had received
assurances in Austin that the state viii
fully protect its interests in the bonn
Diary suit which New Mexico has
brought to secure such a change in the
FL PasO valley would be given to New
Mexico.
Expenditures for February.
County auditor r D. Barnum le-s
ported the expenditures Of the county
for the month OF February amounted
to SIG 1888, which leaves approx
mately S15,90O in the budget fund.
J. NJ. beavers appointment to act IS
county judge while judge Eylar IS alb
sent and engaged IN road work was
commissioners.
A problem which the commissioners
faced was the selection Of judges for
county school trustees election to be
held the first Saturday in April These
elections as a rule are an unnecessary
expense, because nobody ever wants TO
run for such job. There IS no re
Enumeration and even the judges ap-
pointed to act at the elections receive
no pay. Hence it is difficult to secure
judges and some times impossible
Nevertheless the county is compelled to
go to the expense Of preparing station
cry and sending the ballot boxes and
election material to polling places and
returning them to the courthouse.
Five Extra Deputies
The commissioners allowed the ap-
pOintment Of five extra deputy snerIIts
80 act during the cattlemen's conven-
lion.
County treasurer J. D. Ponder de-
posted Sos, 100 in the State National
bank, the county depository for this
year. OF this SSS,4O0 was transferred
from the old depository, the First Ma
tiOnaI bank and the balance 100000 just
received by the collector on account
Of the road and bridge fund.
The monthly report OF county health
officer Hugh S White showed SO pa
tients entered the hospital during Feb
ruary; 80 left and 40 remained at the
end Of the month Seventy-tWO were
treated in the hospital, 343 were seen IN
the clinic and 569 consultations were
held there The collections amounted
to Sass. Of which $685. was paid the
nurse and 81 was paid out for cleaning
leaving SO, paid over to the county.
I G. Gaal. superintendent of the
poor farm. reported the expenses % 81
cents a patient for the month Of Feb
ruary The expenses amounted to
S753.63. The patients in all depart
ments during the month numbered 1O9,
of whom y remain, 81 having left or
died.
