PROPERTY OWNERS ON
TIJERAS AVENUE ASK
NEW PAVING HEARING

Property owners who are pro-
testing against the Tijeras avenue
lraving filed a motion for re-hear-
ling yesterday In the supreme court
at Sarfa Fe, through their attorney,
George 9. Taylor.
Three grounds are given as rea-
sons for the granting of a re-hear-
ing. The first ground is that the
court, in the former hearings, over
locked and diregarded the law of
1905, which the property owners
claim repea'ed the 1908 law under
which the paving was ordered by
the city commissioners. The petit
ton states that the point was
largued by the plaintiffs lawyers
LAT the previous hearing, but was
oyerruled by the court and by the
defendants attorneys, who errone-
ously assumed that the 1918 law
was involved.
The second ground for re-hear-
ling, the complaint states, is that
the court overlooked the fact that
Albuquerque was organized under
| tie 1919 commission form of gov
ernment Instead of the 1917 law.
The thl i ground stated by the
petition is that the court failed to
decide upon a United States con-
| stitutlcnal point involved.

CATTLE ARE FAT
ON RANCE LANDS
NEAR PRESCOTT

Cattle in the vicinity Of Prescott,
Ariz., are in fine condition, accord
ing to John D. Jones, assistant dis
triet forester, who returned yester-
day from a month in that section
of the national forest.
THE recent rains have put the
range in fine condition" Mr., Jones
stated yesterday. The grass is six
inches to foot high and the cattle
are getting fat. 1t is probable that
a number Of the cattle will be
shipped direct to the markets this
fall without having to be fattened
by stockmen in the feeder districts. :"
Arizona cattle from this section
of the state are unusually marketed
during October and November. Be
Inc able to ship fat cattle direct to
the markets will be a great saving
for stockmen as they will be able
70 get regular market prices. Cat
Ito are usually shipped to feeding
section and fattened before being
sold BY the feeder ranchers to the
market.
