The Oklahoma Boomers who de-
clared their intention of defying
the United States and holding to
the lands upon which they had
squatted, even if they had to do so
at the cost of their lives, have sur
rendered without a shot being fired.
This is just what the Atormons,
another law and order defying
class, will have to do-abide by

We confidently trust that the
Board of Supervisors of Apache Co.
will take the present occasion to
look after the necessities of bridge
across the Rio Puerco at Navajo
Station, on the A. d P. Railroad.
At all times the bridge is required
to make a safe transit. Now, while
the maddening waters are rushing
across the trcacherous quick sand
it is positively dangerous both to
life and to the loss Of the United
States mails that arc twice daily to
be crossed at this point. Come,
gentlemen of the Board, listen to
our cry. We shall ask for nothing
that is not for the public good, and
shall be slow to call for anything
that implies the expenditure of mo-
ncy unless the necessity is impera-
tive.
