consumed practically the whole day
today in the case Of w. p. Walker, on
trial in the Superior Court charged
with embezxlement of county funds.
Introduction Of the documentary
evidence with George Brown, the
states chief expert witness on the
stand, however, was not allowed by
the court under objection from the
defense until County Attorney J. F.
Ross avowed he would prove conclu-
sively by the items in question which
were in the defendants handwriting,
establishing his direct connection
with the shortages, amounting to 49,
4O6.23 during the period Of Angus.
18th to the 31st, 1919, totalling As
items.
The introduction of the evidence
was allowed by the court as he later
instructed the jury to show the con-
troll of the defendant over the ONCE
records and his knowledge Of the at
fairs of the Office in connection with
the alleged shortages.
The testimony was then taken up,
item by item. which the witness
traced through the back tax book and
producing the receipts and stubs COW
ering each item, he testified not one
Of the IS items in question ever were
posted in the cash BOOKS, although
during that period some so other
transactions were entered by the de-
PENDANT.
The method used. the witness said
was to mark the item paid in the
back tax book, issue the receipt to
|
the taxpayer in full, but no date
would be placed on the stub, which
~as filed away in the Office. This
was to preclude any possibility, he
said, of discovery as no definite time
could be fixed when the taxes were
paid unless the receipt gwen the tax
payer was located. Some 400 of these
have been located by the county at
torney and will be introduced as evil
dence in the present case for the
same purpose as those submitted to-
day.
Out OF the 4S items alleged short
by the state, the smallest was for 80
cents and the largest for ssss.72.
The defense entered a general OBJ
lection to all questions and a motion
to strike all testimony offered on the
items in question, which were over
ruled and denied by the court.
| Tomorrow an entirely different line
of testimony will be offered by the
state. the nature of which the state
did not disclose today.
The defense is offering practically
no cross examination up to the pres
ent time, although they reserved the
right to recall state witnesses for
cross examination at any time before
the state rests it's case.
According to present calculations
County Attorney Ross figures it will
take all Of next week for the state to
complete it's case. n VIII probably
4 take the better part of 10 days for the
defense side of the case, it is figured,
as large number of witnesses have
been subpoenaed by the defense.

WRITER in he Spanish La vauuuarlia asscrts that SPANS de,
a cadence 5 shown BY the faet Thar the staple food in that nn6on
Beans. this writer says. are easy to cook. lie seems TO think
that an the cook has to do Is TO put them in a pot Of water aud let
natural laws operate. lie concludes frora this that the persistent
adherence Of Spaniaros 10 bean diet proves mental laziness in avoid
ing the ezertion required to figure out a more varied fare.
This conclusion is rough ON Spain. II is roueher ON the bean.
which Is or should be, one Of the principal farm products Of New
Mexico; and no doubt would be hut for the fact That beans grown in
China can be delivered in Chicago cheaper than they can be shipped
from Estsnsia valley.
The conclusion tina, a diet Of beans indicates decadence is at var.
lance with the conclusions Of American food experts who have assert
ed repeatedly that beans contain vast quantities Of vitamines, and
other things that sound strengthening aud no doubt are as claimed.
This writer's contention that beans are easy TO cook, is also at
variance with the testimony Of perfectly reliable cooks whose ac-
quaintance we enjoy. These latter, when baking beans, for instance,
take al day a. u and produce a complicated, beautifully colored and
utterly delightful dh that would fascinate an emperor, II such an
animal existed. Beans easy TO cook. indeed They may be easy to
spoil. but to cook them properly calls for an artistry that puts to sson
a charge Of mental laxiness.
Moreover the Spaniard1s persistent consumption Of beans may.
be and probably is due to conditions other than mental doth. I'm
doubtedly he likes beams So do BostoniansL No one would dare
charge a Bostonian with mental hzincss. Also il Is possible that
beans are plentiful in Spain ief now. when wheat Is not.
