Those Lincoln county parties who
swore to false aflidavits may rest as
sured that the matter will not be
allowed to rest. Trouble is brewing
for them, and it is only matter of
time until their cases will be at
tended to- Rio Grande Republican.
We know of ''somo Lincoln county
! parties" who made aflidavits and
! forwarded them to Washington.
Their address is Lincoln, New Mex
leo.
The herd of cattle which VIM.

deliver on contract to gentleman
from Missouri were not turned over,
owing to the failure of the feeder to
come to time, but the cattle were
an excellent lot, and on arrival at
Springer found ready sale to Mr..
Howard NJ. Holden, of Kansas City,

G. r. Biederman, had business
with the probate clerk Wednesday,.
Mr.. Biederman is the patentee of the
autographic press, used by the gov
ernment at the present time for
issuing orders of every discri ption,
He sold the right to Wheeler &
Wilson, the sewing machine men, in
St. Louis, in 1878, just after their pat
ents were out on their machine. The
patent on this press to-day would be
worth thousands Of dollars, but Mr..
Biederman, like the majority Of pat
entees, did not get much for his in
vention.
Ed Ball, the cowboy preacher,
preached at the school house in this
place Monday evening, to small
audience. Inasmuch as he pays
his own expenses, furnishes his own
lights, etc, we believe him to be
what he represents, can humble
follower of the Lord'' trying to do
good. He says that he is raw "re-
cruit without training for the work"
but that herelies solely on the "Giver
of all good things" and he is certain
that "He will carry one through" )"
He has no enemies to punish, no
mines to sell, no cattlemen to fight,
neither has he horse to loan to a
cattle thief. He is scaled to the
work" and his mission is love.
Manuel Ortiz and Mrs. Maria
Mills were married Friday evening
at Justice Lujan's Office. While the
knot was being tied that makes them
share their joys and sorrows together,
one Antonio CARA broke into their
bridal chamber and robbed it of
nearly all it's carriable articles. He
probably got frightened, as lie left
his cane behind in his escape.
Shortly after the young married
couple returned to their future home,
this Antonio came to the door and
inquired for the cane. Deputy Lea
was called over to work the matter
up. He found the stolen articles and
Antonio was lodged in the cooler to
await the action of the grand jury.
AR. Dunn and Mr.. Cause, the
latter liveryman at Socorro,and the
former the owner of the big freight
ontft, made this Office social call,
Saturday morning. Mr.. Dunn
brought over from Socorro the first
freight hauled over the new road,
several thousand pounds for the
government from Browne & Man
zanares Co. This is new enter
prise on the part of the Socorro
merchants, and they are working
hard to have all freight for the
government hauled from there
instead of Lava Station. Mr.. Dunn
informed us that 5000 pounds could
be easily hauled with six-mulc teams,
without doubling-up but at ono
place-the steep hill at Nal Pals.
He thinks that place could be fixed
for one hundred dollars. The roads
: are splendid and water at short dis
