Grams OF the Spanish-Amerlcan war might
again be ordered into service. The north
part of the city, where the Frisco rail-
road proposes to build its track, was on
the firing line and the heretofore peace
able citizens were protecting their proper

the grading outfit of the aforesaid rail-
road company. For two days and nights
they held the railroad magnates at bay
and the company made a satisfactory SEX
Element In order to induce the 1-operty
holders to lay down their shooting irons.
THE Frisco and Santa Fe railroads are
both building into Blackwell. The former

the latter north and south. The roads VIII

adjoining the city on the west, and each

The aDy farm adioins the Peckham tract
on the south. The Santa Fe has paid
5000 for the right of way and terminal
facilities on this land, but would not be
able to use their purchase without cross
ing the Peckham farm.
After the Santa Fe had made their
purchase, the Frisco construction people
got an extra move on themselves and an
nounced that they would be running their
trains into the city within two weeks
They unloaded the steel and ties and con-
constructed a line across the Peckham
farm, so the Santa Fe VIII have to cross
their road. The Santa Fe people claim
this Is snap judgment and will have no
effect, as the half-mile of road across their
path lacks ten miles of being connected
with the other end OF the Frisco extern

The Santa Fe has large force Of men
