October 31, 1909: The work on the new courthouse is progressing very rapidly and G.M. Lyon of the firm of Lyon & Axtel, who have the building contract, states that the county officials will be occupying the building not later than Feb. 1. It has not yet been decided whether the outside of the building will be tinted a slate color or buff.
Sten Lund returned yesterday from an automobile trip to Albuquerque on which he broke some time records. He went to Moriarity via Stanley in his Buick in three hours and from Moriarity via Tijeras Pass to Albuquerque in three hours, and returned yesterday forenoon via San Pedro, Golden and Cerrillos.
October 31, 1984: Gov. Toney Anaya, citing growing public anguish as his motivation, on Tuesday stayed the execution of condemned killer Richard Reynaldo Garcia. The executive order to suspend Garcia's execution by lethal injection will remain in effect through midnight of Dec. 31, 1986, when Anaya's term in office ends. Garcia has been on death row since 1981 for killing prison guard Louis Jewett Jr. during the prison riot in 1981.
