of santa Fe County
Are Doing.

Mayor W. T. Thornton. president of
the New Mexico Worlds Columbian eX-
position managers, will call special meet
ing of that organization shortly, TO be
held at Albuquerque, the object of which
is to arrange for meetings OF these mana
gers at most OF the county seats in the
territory.
Secretary W. H. II. Llewelyn says
these meetings are to he held with view
to stimulating the local interest in this
important work. San Juan, beng so far
distant and inaccessible, no meeting will
be held at the county seat there, nor is
one deemed necessary, for the people OF
that region are thoroughly wide awake on
the subject and G. II. McHenry, the
boards local representative, is abundantly
able to carry on the work there. AT
Eddy the meeting will include delegates
from the counties of Lincoln, Chaves and
Eddy and become lower Pecos valley
district affair This meeting will take
place early in May. Great zeal is dis
played by the people i'll all parts OF the
territory in pushing this work, and the
board OF managers feel that their efforts
to make complete showing in behalf of
New Mexico's resources have already the
hearty sympathy and cooperation Of the
people.
The trunks of the forest trees for the
national colorado have been shipped to
| Chicago. These represent the timber in
dustry in New Mexico and will be Crna-
mened with a copper plate inscribed
with the number OF feet Uf snch timber

Maj Or Llewelyn and Commissioner f.
V, Chavez have been named as COM
mittee to contract with Mrs. Albright for
large Photographic views of all public
buildings in the territory, schools, etc,
and also a large general view OF each
town and city.
Major Llewellyn says that all told the
work is in very satisfactory shape the
original amount of $25 900, voted by the
territorial legislature, Is as yet practically
in tact, and the aid from the several coun-
ties thus far obtained indicates that still
further liberal appropriations will be
made for exclusive local work before the
year is out.
