TO A HALT.

The electric railroad proposed for
Butte is a failure. as far as the board
Of county commissioners is concerned.
The gentlemen who organized the cor
poration believed that the line would

a source of profit tn themselves. All
the information the STANDARD can
gather indicates that the electric road
would have been welcomed by the pub
lie and that its existence would have
lone much to enhance the value of all
suburban property.
Thriving cities welcome enterprises
of this sort, provided always that fran
chises are granted with due regard to
the rights of the public. When the
franchise i'm question was under dis
cussiOn before the members of the city
council, h STANDARD repeatedly sug
gested that The new corporation he
carefully placed under every proper re-
straint and that rights be granted with
reference to Butte's present surround

growth. All these conditions appear
TO have been prudently imposed, yet
the whole venture is checked because

Capt: II f Grierson, foreign immi-
grafton agent of the A., I. 4 s. F. COM
pany, is at the Palace hotel to-day. He
says these are busy times for him. The
railroad company, recognizing that the
people of New Mexico are themselves eX-
hibiting spirit of enterprise, is making
ment OF the territory. At present the
company is preparing a new edition of its
atlas, which without doubt will be the
most expensive and beautiful railway adj
vertisement ever issued. 1t is inserting in
this atlas several pages OF information Oh
New Mexico; in fact, giving more space
to this territory than any other of the
states or territories tributary to the road.
1t is also issuing now special New Mex
leo folder, which will be widely distributed
throughout this and foreign countries.
Also the company has secured
the names OF 10000 farmers in the
northeastern and northwestern states
who desire to remove to better climate,
and each OF these is to receive specially

case. The Santa Fe company has adopt
ed the plan also OF advertising New Mex
leo largely in all the principal northern
agricultural publications.
The small beginning that has been
made has already resulted i'll very large
inquiry regarding the resources of New
Mexico, and there is every prospect that
these various methods Of disseminating
information will lead to large immigra-
ton during the coming summer and fall.

Indian school at Santa Fe. The com

this school because he thought the In
dams would be more content to send their
children here than further east, also be-
cause the conditions of soil and climate
here were such that an agricultural train
ing received here would be much more
advantageous than that offered by the
eastern institutions. 1t is the intention
of the department to make this q com
plete training school for the young In
dians; in fact the commissioner said he
hoped to expend here for the next few
years as much as $780, year in equip
ping this school for the most perfect work.

AN OUTLAW SURRENDERS.


This seems to be a bad year for would
be bad men in these parts. The Lee
White gang is scarcely behind the bars
before the formers San Miguel county
prototype, Porfrio Trujllo, finds justice
crowding him so closely that he has to
come in and surrender. Trujillo yester-
day appeared at Hon. Eugenio Romero's
ranch and gave himself up on condition
that that gentleman should protect him
from violence, and at about noon they
reported him to the district court. Trujillo
WAS arraigned on three indictments,
carrying deadly weapons, discharging
firearms and resisting an officer. To
these he pleaded not guilty, and was re-
leased on bonds in the sum Of 5000. He
claims that he has violated no law, and
that he would have given himself into
the hands of the county authorities long
ago had he not time and again been noti-
fed that the deputy sheiitts intended to
kill him.
TIujllo has been "in the woods" a
fugitive from justice for the past year
The most serious charge against HIM is
that he had hand in the murder Of
Lackey, Tessere and Trujillo, the
Rock creek sheep raisers, who were
killed in south Santa Fe county two years
ago. He was indicted for this on the
testimony Of man named Suebequer.
At that time Trujillo was serving years
sentence in the penitentiary on the
charge of horse stealing near Las Vegas
After his release from the penitentary he
was arrested and tried on one countin the
indictment, but at that trial Suebequer de-
MED his former statement, and as this was
all the evidence that could be had
against him he was discharged. On an
other count, however, for connection
with the Rock creek affair he still stands
under indictment. For the petty crimes
alleged against him in San Miguel county
he is to be arrsigned in court at Las We

for any captousness. If the friends OF
the movement will simply talk facts the
opponents can soon be convinced that
they are making mistake in combat
