TIE CHURCHES OF ALBUQUERQUE.
Some eastern people imagine that if
they should come as far west as New
Mexico they would get entirely beyond
the pale of civilization and christianity.
1t will probably be surprise to such per-
SONS to learn that in the city of Albuqner-
que, only little over ten years old, there
are already eleven churches, viz Congre-
gational, Presbyterian, Episcopal, Bap-
fist, German Lutheran, two Catholic
and four Methodist churches, and all
of these societies, except the Baptists
and Lutherans have good houses of wor-
ship, many of which are commodious
and elegant. The Congregatonaists,
Methodists and Catholics all maintain
excellent schools, whose curriculums in
clude not only everything taught in the
common schools, but many OF the higher
branches,

The DAILY CITIZEN.
A Factor in the Duke City's Prosperity
"A Live Newspaper and
its Makers.

The Albuquerque Daily Citizen is not
only credit to New Mexico journalism,
but is powerful factor in Albuquerque's
growth and prosperity. The editor and
proprietor, Hon. Thos. Hughes, is a
thorough newspaper man whose long
head has ever lent its energies to everv
enterprise Of local moment without stint.
considering only the good of the commu-
nifty. The associate editor, Mr.. w. s,
Burke, is,one OF the pioneer journalists Of
the southwest, ready writer and man
who has made study of the practical
side OF life in this valley until he is rec
ognized as a walking encyclopedia and
all authority on all matters pertaining to
New Mexico, past, present and future.
Mr.. Burke is also secretary of the Albu.
querque Commercial club, and no man
does more than he to impress upon the
visitor there the beauties and advantages
OF the city. OF W. T. McCreight, the
popular and energetic news editor of the
Citizen well, Mack, as everybody knows
him, precisely fills the bill as one of the
best all around newspaper men in the
west. After thorough training in the
newspaper establishments at various
points in his native state, Kentucky,
Mr.. McCreight located at Albuquerque in
1880, and he has since been continuously
identified with every movement calculat-
ed to build up the best interests of Albu-
querque and the entire Rio Grande re-
gion. Ever on the alert, active, popular
with all classes, Mr.. McCreight possesses
qualities which combine to make him
typical western journalist. He is the
Oldest active printer in the territory and
organized Albuquerque's first typograph-
ical union. 1t is evident that the citi-
zens heartily appreciate the Daily Citizen
and its makers.

aud specifications are being drawn.
Among these may be Noted; The N. T.
Armio business block, three stores,
covering ground space lOOxl42 feet,
fronting on Railroad avenue, to cost $50
900; Gen. Williamson's business block,
Arizona red sand stone, $4,000; j. f.
Luthy block, 1000, four public school
buildings, $50, 900; also large mercantile
establishments by Mandell Bros. & Co.
Lowenthal & Myers, Ferguson q Ander-
son, to cost not less than $4,000 each,
and number of new residences,
among them one for Hon. M. S. Otero
to cost about SIP 900; i'll all requiring an
expenditure of at least $500, 900. These
are conservative figures gathered after a
careful canvass of the field. There are
some fifteen or twenty contractors and
builders doing business in Albuquerque and
not one of them but who has from va, 900
to $50 900 worth of work in hand at the
present time. Indeed taking the above
figures and adding to them the amount
thus far and yet to be expended this year
in municipal improvements, noted more
fully elsewhere, and it requires no mathe-
NAUTICAL genius to figure out the amount
that the live city of Albuquerque will ex-
pend in new buildings and other i'm
provements during the year 1891.
1t amounts to cool million dollars

Calvin Whiting Block, Albuquerque, N. NJ.

In the line of internal public improve
ments the city is making great Roadway.
A sewerage system costing nearly $780,
900 has just been completed for the city
by the well known firm of S. E. Rose &
Bro; some $4,000 will be expended in
grading streets before the year is out,
work on several thoroughfares being now
in progress, and under the operation of
late city ordinances the present year will
see about six miles of new sidewalks add
ed to Albuquerque's already large supply
of such walks. Over two miles of
these walks are to be laid, in fact, are now
being laid daily, within the limits of the
business center of the town. These
walks are of concrete made from import
ed Portland cement; they are twelve feet
in width, laid to correspond with the Off
cial street grade and cost the property
owners twenty-three cents per square
foot-two cents cheaper than at Washing
ton city-or about $4,000 per mile.
The city council last spring granted a
charter to the Albuquerque Electric hail

ment as long as two centuries ago, and is
source Of supply for Santa Fee and the
north central New Mexico rs well
as for Antonito, Alamosa and even
Denver tothe north, because the spring sea-
son in the valley of the Rio Grande below
Embudo is Il full month earlier than at any
other part of the Denver & Rio Grande rail
way system.
Crossing the Rio Grande by a bridge near
La Joya the railway, following the route
above skctchcd would reach Santa Fe
through rich and fertile country already
well settled, but which has ample facilities
| for supporting more than treble its present
population, and this by route from twelve
to fifteen miles shorter than the present line
through Espanola. Add to this the business
coming to the new line by tapping Santa Fe
and the rich fruit growing and farming re-
gion adjacent to the city, and some idea may
be had of the agriculture and mercantile re-
sources of the projected road SO far as con-
Germs its northern half.
MINERAL AND COAL TRAFFIC.
AS to the traffic assured to such line run
ming between Santa Fe and Albuquerque via
Cerrilos and San Pedro the coal and miner
al fields Of south Santa Fe and northern Ber-
nalillo county would constitute the chief
supply. Here abound the quartz and placer
gold, silver, "copper" lead, iron. zinc, fire clay
and coal the latter underlying, an area of
thousands Of acres and Of both the blum |
nous and anthracite varieties. In the trans |
portation of this anthracite coal both to
Colorado and New Mexico points and the |
opening of the vast fields of lead carbonate
and iron ores, required by smelters for tlux-
ing purposes, such 4 road would be assured
of most important and profitable traffic
from the very start, to say nothing of the
demands which the commercial and other
industrial interests of Cerrillos and San Pc
dao would make upon the new line. Inthat
region at the present time are six plants for
treatment of ores in operation and three
more building. From Cerrillos to San Pc
lro and thence to Albuquerque, distance
IF about so miles, is one vast store house of
nent, while the freight and passenger traffic
at Albuquerque is in itself and
light now a sufficient guarantee, were there
10 other resources along every mile of the
