ADVENTURES IN
ALBUQUERQUE

Justice w. w. Mcclellan yes
terday afternoon dismissed the
assault charge against Patrolmar
Charles Mainz, with the consent
of the complainants, R. E. Chap.
man and A. A. Shelton, both OF
Estancia, when the officer ex.
pressed regret for having
tapped" them.
Chapman, who was first wit
ness, said he and Shelton drove
here from Estancia, intending to
go to Seligman, Arizona, to en-
gage in trapping and hunting
for ranchers. Mainz stopped
them at First street and Gold
avenue the night of October 20
when they were on their way to
the Santa Fe Station and wanted
to know where they were going.
Chapman said they told him.
Mainz then struck him with his
night stick and afterward hit
Shelton, he testified.
Upon cross. examination by
City Attorney John C. Lewis,
who appeared for Mainz, Chap
man said he had attempted to
get the grand jury to investigate.
He was advised to make a COM
plant before Justice Mcclellan
by District Attorney M. U. Vigil,
he said.
Shelton's testimony was identi-
cal to Chapman's upon the chief
points. He said that they told
Mainz to take them to Jail, but
that he walked off. They went
to the station then and reported
the incident to A. J. McKew, at
that time station master. An
swering a question by Harry B.
Cornell, their attorney, Shelton
said that while he was not
dressed in Sunday duds,' he
was we'll dressed.
Mainz upon the stand said the
chief had issued orders to clean
the city of suspicious characters
and that he had mistaken Shell
ton and Chapman for hoboes.
He said they refused to answe
his questions at first.
Chapman started to swing at
him, Mainz said, and he pre-
sumed he did tap him. He said
he tapped Shelton and Chapman
once. When he started toward
the station with them they
began to explain and he allowed
them to go because of the fact
that they had already bought
tickets, he Albuquerque

THE CEMETERY
is NEGLECTED.

During the high winds of the
past few weeks the fence around
the cemetery has been blown
down and stock has been tres
passing on the ground. Ever
since the fence was built a few
individuals have been keeping it
in repair. This is written to call
attention of the public to the ne
cessity of some concerted action
being taken for the purpose of
seeing after the cemetery.
Several years ago r H. Max.
we'll drilled well for the bene-
fit of the cemetery, with the un.
derstanding that the public
would put up a windmill. The
windmill has not been put up,
but the reason may be on account
of someone having put rock in
the well. The rock should be re.
moved, the windmill erected and
the fence repaired. This should
be done before Memorial Day
which will be here soon.
Suppose we have a meeting tC
talk the matter over.

THE HIGH SCHOOL
QUESTION

The agitation Of the count.
high school matterhas progressed
to a stage where the partisans o.
Willard are arguing that the
Willard district is the only one Of
the three asking for the location
of a county high school that Is
really we'll fixed to build anc
equip a building for that purpose
An article published in the
Record last week stated that the
Willard district has greater
assessed valuation and more
money in the treasury at the
present time than either Noun
tainair or Estancia, Estancia be-
ing in fact, according to the ar
ticle, third in this regard.
1t is doubtless true that the
Willard district has the greater
assessed valuation, due to the
fact that the two lines of railroad
cross there and the district has a
very large railroad valuation
within it's limits. Estancia dis
trict has by far the greater val
uation in other forms of property,
and owing to the fact that the N.
M. C. railroad has never as yet
paid any taxes, its treasury is
not at the present time as
plethoric as that of Willard.
However, all this is entirely
beside the question, except as to
the people within the districts
mentioned. The taxpayers of
the Estancia district or the other
two districts are of course direct
ly concerned as to how much of
a load the building of a high
school will be, but that is wholly
immaterial to the taxpayers of
all the balance of the county.
The only question to be consid-
cred by the taxpayers outside of
the districts which propose to
build high schools, is as to the
convenience of the bulk of the
population that will take advant-
age of county high school.
We think there is no doubt
that Estancia is nearest the cen
ter of such population, and will
be most convenient for a large
majority of those who will desire
to attend a county high school
If such school is located at Es-
tancia, it will be up to the Estan-
cia district to build the school,
and the taxpayers outside of the
district will not be called upon to
contribute and will have no need
to worry about the cost.
If it were only question of
school district valuations, there
are other districts ia the county
that are well fixed, notably Lucia
and Duran.
But the real question is as
above stated-the center of pop
ulation and the convenience Of
those desiring to attend a high
school.
