The valuation of the G. unity in
1885. WIS $4,000, 600, an increase
of 200 per cent. in 3 years. San
Miguel County, containing the
important city of Las Vegas, and
more than four times the popula-
ton oi our county, was the only
que which exceeded Lincoln in
wealth last year. Total taxation
for all purposes is but $1.3O per

Our people are refined, cultivat-

No one coming To- cast his lot with

Strangers are welcomc, mere than
welcome, if they come to settle
among us.
The county has an efficient Pub
lie School system. managed by a
County Superintendent, and the
Directors of twenty-five school dis

1885, and the number will be great

There are no "land grants" in

Fergus County argus., 1886-09-30

The authorities of the war depart
ment have decided that the only charge
upon which Geronimo, the renegade
Apache can he tried before a military
commission is the violation Of his
parole. The supreme court has de-
cided that these Indian outbreaks are
not wars, and it is held that the
Apaches were placed on the San Carlos
reservation under control Of the mill
tary, with certain privileges. They
were never restored To the control of
the interior department., and leaving
the reservation they simply violated
an implied parole granted when priv
ileges were accorded them. Nothing
definite will be done until the cabinet
has considered the case, but it is the
general belief that the band will b,
sent to the Dry Tortugas. lnasmucf
as Geronimo cannot he hung or shot, thu
government should buy him AN Orange
grove and grant him IL yearly pension
