The Indian Police, who have
been working in this section Of
the chickasaw Nation for the past
two weeks, under instructions from
the Interior Department aud IN

70 produce his receipt from the
United States Indian agent, he
was unable to do so. Tne police
took immediate possession OF the
cattle, and put them on the road.
They then proceeded to the
ranch of Noah Butler in the same
vicinity where the same perform
anee was gone through with. The
two herds we're combined and driv-
en- across the border into Oklaho-
ma.
Mr.. Kelsey says that both own
ers, when they became convinced
that the revenue officers and police
were in earnest, offered to pay the
full amount of tue tax as we'll as
the expenses of collection; but un-
der the recent rigid instructions
of The interior department he could
not accept it and was compelled
to remove the cattle.
The police have about ini she'd
their work in this vicinity and will
leave this afternoon for the Red
river country where more taxes
are to be collected and cattle re-
moved.

MEMORIAL DAY.
G. K. Warren Post No. z, Appoints
Committee of Arrangements.
PATRIOTIC PEOPLE WILL ASSIST.

Memorial day in Albuquerque is to
be observed in fitting manner, one
that will do justice to the progressive
city and to the memory OF the fallen
heroes.
Last evening G. X. Warren post No.
2, G. A. r., met and appointed the fol-
lowing committee of arrangements:
Post commander ]. w. Edwards, Com
rades 4. s. Slower, A. Harsch, Joseph
N. Warner, l.. Clark and David Den
ham. Attorney r. w. ID. Bryan has
been chosen speaker of the day. The
committee and the Womans Relief
Crops will meet soon and complete the
program. The citizens must do some
work attendant upon such an event, as
the old veterans are fast passing away.
The labor should not only be done from
a sense of duty, but out of loving re-
membrance and appreciation OF what
the noble dead have done to unite the
people, protect the homes and insure
the prosperity that we have so abund-
antly enjoyed. Should we regard the

think of father or brother who gave
his life? Instead it should impress us
With how little we can do toward COM
memorating the lives and deeds of the
departed comrades, who gave their
richest gift to the cause they loved.
Then again, how feeble is our patriot
ism compared with the grizzled yeter-
ans who faced shot and shell, sickness
and Imprisonment to preserve this
grand and glorious nation. Let every
one .at their shoulder to the wheel
and aid in perpetuating this occasion.
The Citizen will print from time to
time the arrangements that the COM
mittees are making, so that its readers
will know every detail that is to be
carried out on that day. Every patriot
ic man, woman and child should be up
and doing as the time is short,

Money was plenty. and so were
corpses. 1t wns nothing of note for q
cowboy to be killed In Holbrook I'm
the years between the advent OF the
railroad and 1888, and not such a great
event the several years following. In
June of the year 1888 the town, with
the exception of few buildings north
of the railroad, went up In smoke.
That fire was blow from which Hol-
brook never fully recovered. Part Of
the town was rebuilt, but not half of
what burned. Where there were ten
saloons before the fire, there is one
now. and the same ratio may be ap-
piled to the amount of money and peo-
pie to be found there then and now.
But Holbrook is still important. Il
will always be the source of supplying
the people of the country over which
1t now rules. And 1t may grow. The
petrified forest of Arizona, the great
est yet discovered, is best visited out
from Holbrook. Tourists are learning
this. Notwithstanding the people of
Holbrook have made no effort In this
line. 1t is seventeen miles to the for
est from Holbrook, that Is, the center
of attraction; the part of the scope Of
country over which the petrined wood
Is found. Almost entire trees Of pet
rified wood can be found within q mile
of the town.

years New Mexico will have thousands

run over
Down at Belen. the Citizen represen-
tative is informed. things are rushing
out along the new line. Five miles of
permanent track is laid east from the
river, and the grading to the noun

some work with the steam shovel is
still being done near the river. Out in
and the dirt and rock Is flying at a
great rate. The big cut, 100 feet deep,
Is getting well along toward compile
lion. Out at the Abo canyon there are
within a distance of three miles seven
big steel bridges of varying lengths.
The number of bridges necessary and
the immensty of the excavations
makes IL evident that the building of
the cut off is going to cost a great deal
of money.
Already fifty miles of track has been
laid on the Santa Fe Central, and the
track is past Progreso. In few days
General Manager Hopewell and capit-
alists from the east will arrive and in
spect the new road. The work is be-
ing pushed as rapidly as possible and
some work is being done from the Ken
nedy end OF the line. On the Albu-
querque Eastern eight miles of grading
has been completed out or Moriarity,
and the camps are to be moved furth-
er out from that town In few days.
The two grading camps that have been
maintained at Kennedy for some time
on bridges and surface work will be
moved shortly over to the eastern
grade. The town of Moriarity is get
ting there in a way that augurs well
for the future. 1t will be one of the
