white PIN. County as a sheep Range.

The following communication is
from well-known sheep-raiser of
this county:
SALT LAKE CITY, Feb. Ii, 1901.
EDITOR WHITE PINE NEws-Dear
Sir: | want tn give you and your
readers my idea of White Pine county
as sheep range.
In 1873 there were only 1000 sheep
grazing within the borders of White
Pine county, while at the present time
there are $4,000 sheep grazing on its
ranges. And just as soon as a rail-
road strikes the county going west,
there will he 100000 sheep within the
county.
White Pine county is one of the
finest grazing counties west of the
Rocky Mountains for both summer
and winter ranges, for they join each
other.
MANY stoekmen in other sections
have To travel 100 to 200 miles from
their summer To their winter ranges,
which makes it bad for some of the
old stock and also for some of the
young. and this takes off good deal
of the profit in the business.
| was talking to some sheepmen,
who are now grazing their fiocks in
Eastern Nevada, aud they tell me they
have to drive their sheep to the Cen
trail Pacific Railroad in order to get
their wool to market aud save freight,
and some of them are going to drive
to Soda Springs, Idaho.
In three years out Of five, if a rail-
road were running through our
county. we could ship mutton to
market just as good as that fed in the
East. but, ms ii is, our sheep are not
mutton when drove to the railroad.
Mutton has never been been better
than at the present time on the range.
VIM. Gregory, one of the oldest
cattle men in our county, and who has
been a large owner, has sold his cattle
and gone into the sheep business in
Snake Valley.
| am holding over n large number
of thoroughbred rams for sale for the
coming season. Respectfully yours,
JAMES SAMPSON.

From Hades 20 Heaven

From the Walker Lake Bulletin is
learned the latest advices from the
Government exploration party in
Death Valley, which report all the
men in good health and the work
progressing satisfactorily. The great
est heat heretofore experienced has
been 81 deg. in the shade, with dis
agreeable north wind. The Inyo In
dependent says the party expects TO
finish up i'm Death Valley about the
latter part of next month, and then go
to Mount Whitney. The rise will be
the greatest possible in the territory
of the United States-Death Valley
being the lowest aud Mount Whit
ney the highest point.

THE BAR ASSOCIATION.
Special Session Probable to Considel
Notifications of the Land
Court Act.

The members of the executive COM
mittee of the New Mexico Bar association
have joined in request to President Halle
dine suggesting that special meeting
of the association be called to take place
here on the last day of the month for the
purpose of discussing the several weak
points in the land court act, and reaching
some conclusion whereby remedial para
graphs may be proposed to congress.
1t is of the utmost importance to the
welfare of the territory that many addi-
tons to this law as it now stands be made
at the forthcoming session of congress,
and in order that there should be a
unanimity of action between the land
court judges and the attorneys this
meeting has been suggested. The land
court will be in session here at, that time.
1t is possible also that committee will
be selected to go to Washington and urge
upon congress the necessity of prompt
action in the premises.

MAS0NS IN SESSION.
Opening Session of the Grand Lodge al
Albuquerque--Ma Masonic History
in New Mexico.

The Masonic Grand Lodge OF New Next
co met yesterday at 10 a. M, at Albuquer'
que, Grand Master G. H. Dane, presid-
ing.
This is TIE 14th annual communication
of the Grand Lodge. There is now eighteen
lodges on the register with membership
of 705 Master Masons.
The Grand Lodge was organized in
Santa Fe in September, 1877, with four
lodges, namely: Montezuma, at Santa
Fe; Chapman, at Las Vegas; Aztec, at
Lac Cruces, and Union, at Tiptonvllle.
There are now lodges at Santa Fe, Las
Vegas, Albuquerque, Socorro, San Mar
ciel, Chloride, Las Cruces, Deming, Silver
CITY, Georgetown, Kingston, Roswell,
White Oaks, CerriIlos, Watrous, Ration,
Chama and Pennington.
The first grand master was the late W.
w. Griffin, of this city, one of the best
citizens of New Mexico.
The other grand masters have been: W.
L. Rvnerson and S. B. Newcomb, of Las
Cruces; II. L. Waldo, Max. Frost, W. S.
Harroun, of Santa Fe; John B. Wootten,
of Las Vegas; Cornelius Bennett, of
Silver CITY; w. B. Chlders and F. H.
Kent, of Albuquerque.
The first grand secretary was the late
D. J. Miller, of Santa Fe. The present
grand secretary is A. A. Keen, of Albu-
querque, who has made very acceptable
and efficient officer and has held the office
Tor seven years.
Montezuma Lodge of this city is the old.
est lodge in what is now New Mexico,
Arizona Nevada, Utah, Colorado, south
ern California, western Kansas and
western Texas. Many eminent citizens and
pioneers of New Mexico were members
of it, among them Governor Carlos Bent,

A Word to Back-Cappers.


Speaking OF water competition here, it
may be we'll to touch upon the subject OF
the possible damage to be done
a community by that class OF croakers
and back-cappers that has we'll nigh
ruined this city in the past and who even
now, to-day, seem to be using every effort
to work additional injury.
This habit of certain persons to decry
every enterprise in which they are not
personally interested, which promises to
benefit the community can not be sutfic-
iently mathematical.
u, pessimist ever did either himself or
his town any good, and the very best
thing that can happen to his town is for
him to become so disguised with it that
he will seek new locality.
The news to the outside world that
there is home opposition to such an ap-
parently beneficial project as that OF the
Irrigation company, Is very likely to
cause much damage to the enterprise and
to the city.
WHY is it that this long suffering pnb-
lie can not learn the lesson taught by the
prosperity of Denver, Pueblo and even
Albuquerque? Let any project, the
consummation of which promises the de-.
yelopment of new resources, be suggested
in any of these towns and helping hand
is extended from all sides. But here,
alas, every conceivable opposition Is
shown to everything in the nature OF
progress, except by the city council by a
bare majority passed an ordinance giving
the company franchise in which our
progressive mayor, after suggesting few
alterations, fully agreed.
Should a visitor OF heavenly mien arrive
in chariot of fire direct from the skies
and propose to turn our city into new
garder of Eden with hundred thousand
Adams and Ewes and Abels and fruit
trees, leaving the Gains and serpents in
Las Vegas, and Albuquerque, some sage
brush politician would insist on guaran-
tee from the visitor that sale working
majority for tariff reform or something
else should be promised from the new
district before said sagebrush politician
would give his consent to the proposed
transformation. Let it cease.
Respecting the prospects OF beginning
early construction work telegram from
Engineer Gaynor was received to-day
saying that every thing depends upon
holding the franchise granted by the city.
If that franchise should be molested it
will prove sorry day for the people OF
this CITY,

THE SUPERINTENDENT OF THE PEN.


The board of penitentiary managers
will meet on Friday to select superinten-
dent for that institution to fill the vacancy
caused by Col. ]. Frank Chaves' resigna-
ton. Up to date there are six applicants
for the place. These are Col. Henry
Burgman, OF Cimarron, the present assist.
ant superintendent; Hon. John R. De-
Mler, one of the board of managers from
Las Cruces; Hilario Romero, of Las
Vegas; Major ]. D. Sena, of Santa Fe;
Mr.. Al Clouthier, of Springer, and Col. E.
W. Eaton, of Socorro. One of the mem.
bers Of the board said to-day he antici-
pated that there would be several other
applicants in the race before Friday and
he thought the race would be very spir-
tied one. The suggestion of several terri
torial newspapers that the prison had best
be abolished and the convlcts "sent back
to Kansas because there they could be
kept at 10 cents day" was also referred
to as rather joke. ''It costs at present
about 1625 cents per day per man to keep
the convicts here" said the commits
sioner.

SOME THINGS TO WORK FOR.
Santa Fe's Bright Prospects-Unity of
Action and What 1t will Bring
the Capital City.

The immediate future never looked 30
bright for Santa Fe as at present. The
people of the capital city have often been
callen upon to "cast their bread upon the
waters" as it were, when there was little
prospect for its return, but change for
the better has now come, and things are
coming our way at a very satisfactory
pace. Indeed, SO satisfactory is the situa-
ton that it ought to inspire the citizens to
work in unison now as never before
This is no time for petty strife, nor per-
sonal jealousies-it ID time for har-
monious, Concerted action. Look at the
prospects:
Through the influence of the American
Health Resort association and the Indiana
editors Santa Fe is being widely adver-
Used as regards its climatic advantages
and its capabilities as q fruit producing
region. This will cause hundreds OF
people to look toward the Santa Fe valley
lOr homes.
The excellent progress now making to-
wardsettllng the coal land complications
indicates early success. This means the
employment of 200 laborers, the putting
in Of extensive machinery, and the build
ing of one, perhaps two. railroads, that
will connect Santa Fe with San Pedro.
The city councils admirable action in
granting frauchise-not exclusive, how
ever--to the Santa Fe Irrigation company,
means competition between the two COM
panies in developing bountiful water
supply, and the cultivation OF at least
1000 ten-acre fruit and alfalfa farms ada
cent to the city, to say nothing of the ex-
pendture of $l50,OUO among the city's
laboring men next spring.
Then there is the proposed sanitarium,
which has passed the stage OF possibility,
and is now most probable. This will
cause an expenditure of at least $500, 900
here, mostly for labor and building ma
terials.
In addition to these things also is the
certainty that Fort Marcy is to again be
OCCUPIED by troops-what else would
cause the war department to resume con-
troll of the post?
Finally there is the Pecos national park,
the establishment CT which will make |
the Santa Fe canon, Monument rock and |
that whole picturesque region east and
north OF Santa Fe veritabls mecca for
health and pleasure tourists.

Does it Contain Ammonia ?

The charge is being made that the Royal Baking
Powder contains ammonia We would have supposed that
the emphatic condemnation of ammonia baking powders
by the eminent physicians throughout the land and
the fact of the three leading chemists of Minnesota max
ing their report to Committee recently showing
that bread baked with the "Royal" contained ammonia
and the hostility being manifested by the public
against all ammonia and alum baking powders would have
driven them permanently from the market
In view of the fact that Baking Powder has become
an indispensable article in every Kitchen it is gratifying
to know that there brands in the market which
suspicion of any kind has attached. DR.. Prices
