VISION OF THE CAPITAL.
Wonderful Foresight of Washington,
Jefferson and L'Enfant.

Wonderful Foresight of Washington,
Jefferson and L'Enfant.
Some time after the preliminary snr-
veys for the future site OF the city Of
Washington by L'Enfant, Washington
and Jefferson arrived in Georgetown,
staying for several days at the old
Suffers tavern. Each day, in company
with Major L'Enfant, they rode over
the country in order that every phase
Of the topography might be studied
with relation to the great work they
had in their minds. How splendid it
is to think that we had a Washington
and a Jefferson at such q moment!
With their great vision, their knowl-
edge of the past, their hope for the
future, they looked out upon the wide
Potomac and the woods and fields and
saw the future capital rise like a mi
rage before their eyes.
That hill. which was later to be
crowned by the dome of the capitol.
seemed to L'Enfant to be like "a
pedestal waiting for a monument"

wide plain sloped down to the Poto-
mac vas marked for the site of the
presidents palace" not only that it
would be distant from the halls of con-
gress nor yet that it might be ap-

avenue" to be called Pennsylvania.
but that, above ali, it might forever
look out over the broad expanse of the
Potomac, with the far hillside rising
as though to wall out the scene from

One day a bulky, tall. pale faced gen

did not ask him for his order, but i'm

consumed his lunch, the guest sat up
right in his chair for awhile, leaning
his hands on a heavy walking cane and
staring blankly at the opposite wall as

ELECTION RETURNS By SEARCH.

While Millions of people on cleo
tion night crowded about the bull

tion returns as they sped in over the
wire faster than light itself, another
crowd remote from newspaper Of
fees pecred out of farmhouse win
dows. stood in village roads and
streets and gazed toward Schenecta-
dy awaiting their returns from the
newspaper in the sky Early in the
evening, long before the returns
were made public in many of the
rural districts, the great white fing-
.er of a search light traced its mes
sage of Governor Whitmans cleo
ton by making circle of light in
the clear blue sky. The searchlight
was operated by engineers at the
General Electric Works, and the
election returns were translated by
IA code of signals published in a
newspaper of wide circulation the
day before.
From villages and towns fifty
miles away came reports of reading
the signals of the big searchlieht and
thus satisfied the engineers that
their signals were not misunderstood
The searchlight used had a five
foot reflector, the same size as one
used in a test a few months before
which was observed 90 miles away.

TO PREVENT MCDONALD
FROM HOLDING OVER
Republicans, Il is Reported, viii
Not Recognize His Authority in
Case dc Baca Fail to Qualify

Case dc Baca Fail to Qualify
Santa Fe. Dee. l5..-There is a
we'll founded rtmor here that the
new state legislature which will
meet on January 9 will refuse to
recognize Governor Mcdonald, in
the event Goverhor-elect de Daca
fails to qualify before that date.
Republican attorneys, it is stated,
are now seeking legal means to pre-
vent Governor Mcdonald holding
over in case the Inauguration Of
the governors is delayed.
Word received from Mr.. de Baca
is to the effect that his health has
considerably improved since his ar
rival in Los Angeles. He intimates,
however that on advice of his ply
sicians, he may delay his return to
New Mexico until after January t.
Considerable conjesture as to who
will be governor, il Mr.. dc Baca fails
TO qualify, is being INDUCED in by
politicians throughout the state. This
seems to be a point upon which le-
gal authorities disagree, and it may
be that somewhat of legal tangle
will result in case the goVernor-elect
is not inaugurated at the time pre-
scribed by law. Three possible sol
utions of the problem have been dis
cussed.
The first solution advanced is that
Governor Mcdonald would hold over
as governor The advocates Of this
solution base their arguments on Ar
ticle 20, Section ,, of the state con-
stitution, which says: Every OIL
: Ger. unless removed, shall hold his
Office until his successor qualities. -
Should de Baca not qualify, the Me
DOnalditcs claim, the present COVER
nor would, under the section quoted
above, remain governor until an
other election.
! he second argument is that Lind
Scy will be so.crnor. This is bas-
ed on the contention that the officers
elected at the November election
must qualify on January T. If Lind
Ssy qualities. ana de Baca does nc (
the contenders claim, there will be
a vacancy in the governors chair,
and Lindsey, as lieutenant COVER
nor They quote Article ), Section
Z, of the constitution, which says:
"In case of a vacancy in the Office
Of governor, the lieutenant governor
shall succeed TO that Office, and to
all the powers, duties and emolu-
menLs thereof
Another belief is that in case Gov
ernor-elect de Baca does not quail
fy. Holm o. Bursum, as the candi-
date receiving the next highest num-
Der of votes, would be governor
This argument is backed by the fact
that in the territorial days, old tim
ers say in the year 1886, there was
a race between one Fernando jim
enez and DR.. Skipwich for county
coroner, in San Miguel county. Mr.
Jimenez won the election by large
majority, buL for some unknown
reason, failed to qualify. DR.. Skip
