THE COMMISSIONERS.
In Session, Considering Tax Rates
and Assessments.
AMOUNTS GREATLY INCREASED.

The Bernalillo county commission
ers were in session yesterday at tho
court house.
The principal business was that OF
considering tax rates and assessments
in this county. Assessor George F..
Albright, who has been busily engaged
the past couple of months in looking
up the records to see who paid enough
taxes and who didn't, presented the
commissioners a list of nearly 200
names with the amount of increase
that should be put on their property.
The commissioners have set June 15
as the day in which anyone dissatis-
fed may appear before them. The
clerk OF the board is today notifying
all persons of the change in their as
sessments for the year 1903.
The new assessment will foot up to
nearly $175,O00 more than the old one
No raise has as yet been made on
sheep or merchandise, but this will be
done later.
The Citizen will soon publish the
list of those who have been raised and
some surprises will be in store for
most of our readers.

AFTER CARPENTERS.
Contractor Harlan Wants Carpenters
for San MarCiaI Depot.
TALKS OF THE RIO GRANDE.

J. A. Harlan, VINO has the contract
to build the new depot for the Santa
Fe road at San Marcial, came in from
the south this morning and is here to-
day to secure half a dozen or more car
penters to go to work on the new de-
pot. Mr.. Harlan stated that the ma
terial, supposed to have been caught
in the floods and therefore indefinitely
delayed, got through all right and
reached San Marcial the other day;
hence there will be no further delay
in the erection of the new depot if he
can get a sufficient number of carpen-
ters TO work.
Yes, the river is pretty high" said
Mr. Harlan, lat certain low points
south of this city, hut there don't seem
to me TO he sufficient force in the rush
ing waters to stir up the quicksand to
any great extent, hence no damage
of any consequence has so far result
ed from the rise in the Rio Grande.
OF course, should the northern sec
tons be visited by heavy rains, caus-
ing the melting of the huge banks OF
snow, the Rio Grande would then be
a mighty stream, and. if not looked af-
ter, great damage would be the re-
suit.

granted to Mr.. Dunlap right of way
through that town for the railroad,
that Mr.. Dunlap. feeling so good over
the anxiety of the Bland people for a
new railroad, has given assurance

on paper but that it will be in reality a
railroad in operation in a very short
time.
Mr.. Dunlap is expected to return to
