NATIONAL PARK
FOR GLOR|ETA
Marking Site of Fa-
NOUS Battle
field
TO MEMORABLE CONGRESS
To Set Aside One Square
Mile Which Was Scene
of Bloody Strife.

At the annual reunion of the New
Mexico Department of the Grand
Army OF the Republic last week in
Las Vegas it was decided to have a
memorial presented to Congress pray
ing to have the battle field of Glori-
eta converted into a national park as
has been done with other famous bat
tie fields of the Civil War. A reso-
luton was also adopted with the end
in view of having the next Legislative
Assembly make an appropriation to
cover the expense of printing in
pamphlet form list of the volunteer
soldiers who served in the Civil War
and the various Indian campaigns
from the Sunshine Territory.
Captain Smith H. Simpson of Taos
who is one of the Oldest living Anglo
Saxon settlers of the great Southwest
and veteran Indian fighter, is
deeply interested in both of these pro.
jects. Especially is he in favor of
the plan to have the scene of the
bloody strife on Pigeons ranch com
memorated by making it federal re-
serve. He is of the opinion that the
battle fought there in which the Con
federates were routed was one of the
most decisive as to results in the en-
tire war and some of the historians
have recognized this fact in their mar
ratives of the fierce struggles be-
tween the North and South.
Saved the West to the Union.
But for the disastrous repulse
which the Texan troops received at
this place upon their invasion OF New
Mexico Captain Simpson believes that
the southern soldiers would have
easily conquered the entire west as
there were many southern synlpathiz.
ers in Colorado and this would have
been staggering blow to the Union
cause. However the Confederate ex-
pedition was put to rOut in the first
real engagement and retreated in dis
order back into the Lone Star State.
This ill-fated expedition put stop to
any further invasion Of New Mexico.
Relative to the publishing of the
names of the volunteer soldiers of
New Mexico from the days when the
hostile Indians were terrorizing the
country two muster rolls have dis
appeared in an unaccountable man
ner. An effort is now being made to
find these missing muster rolls so as
to have the records complete. The
others are intact in the office of the
adjutant general of the Territory. 1t
is proposed to have these muster rolls
incorporated into a pamphlet as a
matter of history, and to be distrib-
uted among the survivors or their
families.
Committee Of Three Named.
Captain Simpson is one of a com
mittee of three appointed to look after
the proposition of having national
park made of the battle field of Glori-
eta. The other two are Ex-Governor
Z. S. Strover of Albuquerque, and
Jefferson Reynolds of Las Vegas. 1t
is proposed to have this federal park
a mile square. Delegate w. H. An
drews will be called upon to present
the memorial to the Sixtieth Congress
when that body reconvenes.
Captain Simpson left for his home
this morning via the Denver & Rio
Grande Railroad.
