VEEDER

AS

A

REGENT

ATTORNEY GENERAL EXPLAINS WHY HE HAS A RIGHT TO

RE-MAIN WITH NORMAL

Though rejected by the senate after having been appointed as a member

of the board of regents of the New .Mexico Normal University and later failing of confirmation as a member

ie state water board, when Govei-iio- r

McDonald had tried to aceomplisn

the double stunt of removinghim from connection withthe Normal and at the same time keep kim pacified by ap-pointing; him to the other state job,

John D. W. _{Veeder, although the} chief

executive selected Edward H. Titt-iua-n

to lie his successor, has a logal

right to serve a

a

regent of the big

educational institution located

at

Las

Vegas. At least

that

is the opinion

of Attorney General Clancy. Mr. Veeder never appears tobecome

incensed at arebuff. When the senate refused to confirm him as a Normal' regent, he did not appear to be mad

at

the senato, but cheerfully began his duties, apparently

just

as happy as though the entire state was delightel to aee him in such a position. When

the governor showed that he thought

it

wise to get Veeder off the board

of _regents, and appointed him to

an-other job, Mr. _{Veeder didn't get sore.}

Now that he has failed of

appoint-ment as water commissioner, Mr.

Veeder likely cheerfully will continue his duties as a regent, In _spite of the fact that he probably realizes by this

time that nobody appreciates his

ser-vices but himself. He doesn't seem

to realize that he would dc the

gov-ernor a service by resigning. Truly thisIs _{an u.igrateful} world. Mr.

Veed-er la not appreciated. Mr. Clancy's

loiter Is as f'"lows:

April 15th, 1913.

!. V. Browne, Secretary,

loardof Regents, New Mexico

Nor-ma _{University, East Las} Vegas,

i Dear Sir: Your

letter

of the 12th

iiiat., was received on Sunday, in hich you ask me wether John D. W.

eeder is a member of your board of

regents at the present time, and re

-ailing to my mind

that

he was

ap-pointed by the governor as successor

to P. II. Pierce, whose term had

al-ready expired, in February, 1012,

that

appointment being submitted to the senate at the first session of the state legislature and then rejected. You

further say

that

no other appointment

wa3 made until the second session of

the state legislature, when the nam'--.

of B. D. Tittman was sent to the

sen-ate by the governor and was rejected.

While it _{had entirely} escaped my memory, until I received your letter, I find that on _April 27, 1912, I wrote

you a letter on

this

same subject and

after

gome

further

examination I do

not find any reason to change the opinion expressed In that letter, nor

do I believe

that

anything which has happened since has, in _any way,

changed the situation.

The view which I then took was

that

Mr. Veeder was _properly

ap-pointed under section 3 _{of article} XX

of the constitution, which _providesfor

the filling of vacancies which occur

while the senate is not in session in

any office the incumbent of which is

appointed by the governor, by and

with the advice and consent of the senate, authorizing the _governor to

"appoint some tiualified person to fill

the same until the next session of the senate."

Section 2 _{of the same ar'icle} of the constitution provides, "every officer,

unless removed, shall hold his office

until his successor is duly qualified," I understand

that

Mr. Pierce's term of office _{expired February} 22, 1912,

and that he died two days later, whereupon the governor appointed Mr.

Veeder to fill

the

vacancy caused by V... Pierce's death,

it

being clear

that

T. _{Pierce, under the section last}

noted, would hold his office until his Fiucegsor should be duly qualified.

During the recess of the senate the only power to appoint to such office Ik with _{the governor, but he cannot}

exeiciss that power unless there is a

in the office, and the action of ihe senate _in

refusing to confirm

Mr. Veeder as the suceuMtor of Mr.

J"e cc, or Mr. Tittman as the sne.ee.,--to.- of Mr. _{Veeder, riintiot operate to}

to any proceeding as' to such roads,

in view of the broad, although ill de-fined powers given the county roaas

it would be well, wherever harmony

and can be had, for the

county commissioners and the county road board to act together.

Yours truly,

FRANK W. CLANCY,

Attorney General. Purity Congress Delegates.

Governor McDonald _yesterday ap-pointed the following persons as

dele-gatesto the seventh international

pur-ity congress, to be held

at

Minneap-oliS- j

Minnesota, on November 7: A. T. Evans, Elida; W. M _McCoy, Moun-

-tainair; Mrs. J. W. Mayes, Santa Fe;

Mrs W. _{J. Fugate, Las Vegas;} H. D.

Nichols, Tucumcari.

Addition _{to State Library.}

A _{valuable addition to the state}

li-brary has been made in _{the purchase} from J. W. Mayes of some 400 vol-umes which will _{complete the state's}

records of En"lish common law and

chancery proceedings.

Williams _May Go _{to Washington.}

Hugh H. Williams, chairman of the corporation commission, may go to

Washington with Sam Cowan, the counsel who has been retained by

the commission to _{take up rate mat}

ters with the interstate commission. His mission will be

that

of trying to induce one of the commissioners of

the national body to come to New Mexico _{and hear evidence, and} be come _{acquainted, by personal obser} vation, with the condition of affairs

of _shippers in this

state

before

that

body meets in June.

It

is _generally the custom of the

interstate

commis sion to send merely an examiner to look over matters. The situation

here in New Mexico, is considered

vital _enough by the

state

commission to warrant Mr _{Williams going to the}

seat of the national government and laying the matter before the national

body. He will also be accompanied by B. F. _{Seggerson, the rate clerk} of

the corporation commission, who has

so _{ably prepared the extensive brief} in the care. Mr.Williams was disap-pointed

that

there. was not

a

larger turnout

at

the Albuquerque mooting.

In his _speech In

_that

_{city before the}

chamber of commerce Sam Cowan asked them plainly what was the

mat-ter with the business men of

Albu-querque, and whether they were afraid to enter into this contest with

the railroads. He assured them that theywould notlose the railroad shops by so doing, and

that

Albuquerque was sure to be abig shipping point.

State Appeals Firemen's Case.

The

state

has appealed In the case

of Thomas Delgado against the state auditor

to

compel him topay amounts

claimed to be _{appropriated for}

volun-teer firemen in the various towns of

the state. The app Is made from

Judge Abbott's decision to the

su-preme court.

It

was a

test

case

brought by Thomas Delgado as

treas-urer of

the

Santa Fe fire department tor the recovery of$1,200 due the fire

department under

the

act passed by the legislature of 1909, and involved

the payment of some fl6,000 to the

various volunteer organizations in the state

that

are organized ror protec-tion against fire. The case is based

on a technical point. In 1912 the leg.

islature passed1 an act transferring

in-surance monies to the salary fund

and the

state

auditor contended

that

he had no authority to use money from

that

fund to pay the volunteer firemen. Judge Abbott ruled

that

the auditor had such

'right

and ordered'

the payment asked by Delgado. The

attorney, on behalf of the state, now appeals the case to

the

supreme court.

SAYS PRACTICALLY EVERYBODY WANTS HIM FOR UNITED

STATES MARSHAL

Santa Fe, N. M., April 19. More in terest was manifested throughout the

city today in _{the name of the prob} able successor of United States Mar

shal Secundino Romero than in the confirmation of the .reports

that

the marshal had tendered his _resignation.

"It will be A. H. _{Hudspeth," said} more than one politician. A _reporter called _up Mr. _{Hudspeth over the long}

distance. He was athis home

at

White

Oaks.

"Have you heard that 'Sec'

resign-ed?" was asked.

"Yes, I have," replied the chairman

of the democratic central committen. "Are you going to get the _job."

queried the reporter.

"I haven't heard yet," chuckledHud

speth.

"Well, they're all for _you

_aren't

they?" said the reporter.

"No, I have not been endorsed unanimously', " he replied.

"But the leaders of _{your party} or most of 'em, are back of you like a

stone _{wall, aren't they?"}

Mr. _{Hudspeth replied that he be} lieved _{he did have the support of most} of the leaders.

The White Oaks attorney added

that

there are many other candidates for the post of United States marshal of

New Mexico, but he.did not give their names.

While Mr. _Hudspeth was most fre quently mentioned today by people discussing Mr. Romero's _{probable suc}

cessor, several other well known New Mexicans were spoken of

as

"possib-ilities."

Governor McDonald was called up

and asked if he wished to make any comment on _{the "impending appoint}

ment" of a United States marshal. He replied

that

he had nothing to say just now.

SCHNORR PLEADS GUILTY

Albuquerque, N. M., _April 19.

When Edward M. _{Schnorr, a piano}

tuner, indicted for assaulting his wife, as arraigned before _{Judge Raynolds} in _{the district court yesterday} after-noon he pleaded guilty. Through

his _{attorney, W.itsi' Heacock,} he

with-drew a plea of not _guilty made

at

the time of

a

preliminary hearing.

Schnorr was arrested six week ago after his wife bad appealed to the

police for protection.

Manuel Acunio _{pleaded guilty to a}

charge of _{assault with intent to rob,}

Immediately after Schnorr had plead

ed guilty. Manuel was not a

_stranger

to the court room. On seven differ ent occasions he has been tried for various charges in the court room in which today he _{pleaded guilty.} On

each of the seven occasions Acunio always managed to get by the jury. He was never convicted. _{This time,}

however, Manuel felt that any Jury

would "have it on him," for a month

ago Acunio entered Maharan's store,

51G West Central,

at

9 o'clock one Saturday night, and attempted to pull

off _{a genuine} wild west hold-up-. _A

Santa Fe machinist In the store put

Acunio out of business and took bis

gun away from him.

It

is said that Acunio's failure to

successfully execute the Maha-a-n

robbery has been a bloW to _{his pride,}

and

that

he _{is willing to go o} the penitentiary, or i.ny place else, when.) lie can hide his shame.

Regarding County Roads, Etc.

The following

letter

from _Attorney

General Clancy will beof interest and serve as a guide in similar cases to county road boards throughout New Mexico:

April 16, 1913. Mr. Eugene Ketnpenieh, Chairman

Board of County Commissioners, Peralta, N.M.

Dear Sir: I think

it

would be

pre-ferable if we could hold that the

pow-er

conferred upon the board of

coun-ty

commissioners by chapter 124 of

the

laws of 1905, with _regard

to

the establishment of roads and the

con-demnation of land when _any is taken from private owners against

their

will, was now vested in the county road board, as

it

is likely to lead to confusion _{and difficulty to have}

pow-ers as to road matters divided

be-tween two different boards, but I am

unable to find anything in

the

lan-guage of the chapter 54 _{of the laws} of 1912, _{by which the county boards}

were created, to justify the belief

that

the new boards can _{exercise any} i;ower or authority vestedin the

coun-ty commissioners by the act of 1905.

After a road has been established by the county commissioners and

de-clared to be a public road,

then

it seems clear, by section 8of the

act

of

1912, that work on

that

road should be done by

the

county road board and, under section 7, _{the expenditure}

of all funds for such a road

are

to be under the supervision and

direc-tion of _{the county road board.} You speak of there being

a

num-ber ofroads in the county which have never been declared public roads, but

If they have been actually used by

the public for as much as ten years

there

would be no need of

condemn-ing the land or paycondemn-ing anythcondemn-ing for it, as the

statute

of limitations would

operate to

prevent

the owner now

making claim for compensation. Prob-ably in most cases, even if the use has been less than ten years, the owners of the land would be willing
