BOARD GOING AHEAD WITH ADDITION ID

In spite of the industrial pursuits and the old age and mothers pension laws, the board of control yesterday voted to advertise for bids on a contract to build the new addition to the Pioneers home at Prescott.

The board would be acting merely as the agent of the executors of the Parsons estate, and not in it's official capacity as state board. MT.

BALDWIN OWNS NEW GAR

Baldwin was one of the pur- chasers of the recent carload of Ford cars and Saturday afternoon essayed to purchase he had erected splendidly equipped garage and had taken care to lay solid foundation and to install thereon heavy timbers so that the building would be a strong structure against storms or attack by Mexico. A number of years ago Mir. Baldwin mast cred the intricacies of the motorcycle but the manipulating of the lever of q Ford was a new thing. He had the machine placed in his bark yard and things began to happen thick and fast Among the first objects of his attack were the fruit trees which he had set out and nursed through their infantile diseases until they had become strong He rode. over them with abandon lcav- ing destruction in his wake. The chicken pens came next-fancy struc- lures in which were housed his pure bred White Rock fowls. were demol- ished. By the time he had made the third or fourth circuit of the family back lot large number of the neigh bors Were out witnessing the a la Bar ne. Oldfield death defying stunt but no one was brave enough to attempt to call out the latest approved method of stopping a Ford car. The third lap was about completed the garage in some manner had located itself squarely in the path of destruction. There was a tremor-the breathless calm before the bursting of the storm-and the crittel reared on it's hind wheels and made for the garage. Visions of carnation pill lows and floral anchors with hands folded across the breast were seen above the spinning wheels and a hatless rider sitting..sin. an automobile seat shaking hands with an old man with a -seytie. Then there was a crash and the garage came to earth but in the collision the car had been stopped The damages have been repaired with the assistance of.a roll of stoicking plaster a bundle of explanations. few cigars and new garage.

MESA NEWS NOTES
TAX PAYING EXTENSION
 IS EXPECTING SCHOOLS
Semi Annual Taxpaying Period Also
 Oisturbs Arrangement of School Funs

The recent session of the legislature .las thrown the school funds of the state into a somewhat chaotic condi- tion and as a result 1t is more than likely that funds will have to be se- cured in some manner not provided in the statutes to pay the salaries Of teachers and the regular running eX- penses of the schools throughout the state On account of the passage of the measure extending the time of pay ment of taxes which were due Decem- Der 13 of last year. the Alma schools1in all probability will be cut short at least one month. While the Mesa schools are somewhat affected by the measure it is believed that arrangements can be made whereby the schools will continue until the end of the nine months as previously arranged. Some legal points will be involved in the event that the school systems find themselves without funds with relation to the payment of teachers salaries. The teachers are us ually employed for a term of eight months or more and in some instances for nine months. In the event that schools of the state closing at the end of the eight months period may find themselves liable for the extra monh in the event that the teachers holding nine months contracts care to recover.
 However, there is another feature entering into the measure passed by the last legislature providing for two tax paying periods, one in June and the other in December. Under the present arrangements, in case adjustment is not made the schools will find them selves six months in arrears at all times The matter is to be taken up with the governor and it is believed that plans can be perfected whereby the school fund will be kept intact uis.il such time that a fund may be created so that there can be retained balance equal to six months running expenses of schools. This will mean that the school fund will always be on the safe side of the ledger and will be ample to care for the needs of the public insti- tuition. The fiscal school year com menees July-l and ends June 30 of each year. Under the present plan the school fund is used by the end of the fiscal year. If the tax paying period is advanced to June, it will mean that the funds will not be available until July
 which will be insufficient to continue the work until the first of the year. the next period at which taxes for the maintenance of the schools would be available. However, it is believed that the matter can be adjusted in so far as the school fund is concerned.

rived at White House,
l.s So.mso JOURNAL SPECIAL ls.s,O WISH

Washington, Jan 1S.--The first day
In tie White House Of President VIII
sons first grandson, the child OF Mr..
and Mrs. Francis r. Sayre, born sun
day. was marked by the arrival OF
thousands OF congratulatory tele-
grams and many presents and the
turning of the president into one Of
the happiest men in the nation.
The grave look Mr. Wilson has
worn since his wife's death. was sup
planted by broad smile and his
callers today emerged from his pri-
vate office laughing sympathetically.
He talked Of little but the new ar
rival, throughout the day.
DR.. G. T, Grayson. the White
House physician, reported tonight
that both Mrs sayre and the baby
were progressing favorably. Mrs.
Sayre is occupying southeast room
on the second floor Of the White
House, Mr. Sayre will remain at the
White House for several days.
The baby is said to be- perfectly
with blue eyes and light
hair. and closely 10 resemble his
father. His lusty crying during the
day brought smiles TO the faces OF
White House employees who have not
seen a baby in the White House since
President Cleveland's administration.
Major Ebert NJ. Bacon, of Hous-
ton. Tex, who was haptlsed by the
late Mrs Wilson's grandfather, was
one of the first to congratulate the

PHOTOS OF INTERIOR
OF STATE BUILDING AT
SAN DIEGO RECEIVED

Santa Fe, Jan. 1S.--The first pho
tographs of the interiors of the New
Mexico building at San Diego were
received today by Col. Ralph e.
Twitchell. The glimpse they give of
the installations are convincing. The
mineral exhibits are artistically ar
ranged and well placed by President
F. A. Jones of the School of Mines.
The models of the landmarks, es-
pecially thosc of the Pueblos of
Cuarai and Pecos have a setting that
brings out their massiveness, unique
beauty and interest, while the models
Of the Maxwell mansion and Bent's
Fort loom UP impressively. The great
auditorium looks most inviting and
the pictures by New Mexico artists on
the walls proclaim to the world that
New Mexico is state of high ideals
and culture. Very cosy and beautiful
are the ladies' sitting and writing
room, the various offices and cosy
corners
The forestry exhibit is a wonder
and at the same time of the most
practical nature. The views to be had
from porticos, verandas and roof are
sublime, while the landscape garden
ing and immediate surroundings of
the building are shown to be most at
tractive. The photographs are on
large scale and well finished and will
give commissioners and legislators a
clear idea of what has been accom-
plished for the state.

FOR
LIBEL AMENDMENT
IS VERY STRONG
Many Would Go Even Further
Than Recommendations of
State Press Association in
This Respect.

Santa Fe, Jan. 1S.-Voiees are be-
ing raised in favor Of making the
libel statute of the state even more
liberal than the State Press associa-
tion has suggested II is argued that
an editor should have the same inn
munity from prosecution for his ut
terances as the members of the leg
islature on the floor, or the lawyer
in court, If such utterances are made
in good faith, with the provision how
ever, that where any statement Is
proven to be false that the offending
editor shall retract and apologize or
else be subject to prosecution as at
present. II is urged that an editor
owes duty to the public to,voice his
views untrammeled by fears of pros
ecution, just as the legislator is ex-
pected to speak out without fear or
favor.
There will be, much opposition TO
the opposition 10 levy S per cent tax
levy on the output of all mines, in
Guiding metal mines and stone quar-
ries. Still greater will be the oppo-
sltion to tax the gross output. New
Mexico's net mineral output last year
reached the sum of $4,000. 900 and a
per cent tax on this sum would yield
an income Of almost million dollars.
Want Auto Tax Reduced.
Automohilists favor q reduction In
the license tax and urge that the Ii
censc fee he one dollar for each ma
chine, no matter what its make or
horsepower. They argue that their
automobiles are taxed in the general
assessment returns and that the au-
tomobilists do more for the develop
ment of the state than any other class
of people and that there is no more
justice in burdening them with
heavy license fee than there would be
in compelling owners to take out a
license for every goat, COW, horse or
eve that they own.
Rigid food inspection, Including
products of the dairy, is to be provid-
ed in bill that is also to include the
recommendation of the state phar-
macy board for chemical laboratory
and drug inspectors.
