WE learn that George Gould is
expected soon to be in Ell Paso
and while there the people of that
city will strongly urge upon him
the completion of the Ell Paso &
White Oaks railroad. While it is
true that our El Paso friends will
exert every possible means to bring
about successful issue of our
hopes in this direction, would it
not be well for White Oaks to
show that she is alive by having a
a committee of our representative
citizens wait on Mr.. Gould, as well ?
Later-Since the above was
written, we understand that an ex-
haustive report of our resources
has been placed in the hands of
the Gould people and it is general
ly believed that favorable action
will soon be taken by them. There
is reason to hope for much cncour-
agcment from this source.

The Santa Fe and Rio Grande
railroads have their war togs on
and it will be a fight to a finish.
The round trip rate now offered
from Denver to Chicago is $4,000,
good until November 18th, and
the rate from Denver to Santa Fe
has tumbled to $500. Judging
from the great reductions made
this early in the game, it is safe to
predict that if the war continues
through the summer the roads will
be issuing tickets to Chicago gratis
and throw in chrome. 1t will
soon be cheaper to go to the
Worlds Fair than to stay at home.
But Mr.. Pullman and his porter
will they still continue business
without regard for our pocket
books?

ALBUQUERQUE is making a deter
mined effort to induce the Pecos
Valley railroad people to build
their railroad to that city instead
of Las Vegas, and hopes by means
of large bonus to bring the
change about. Viewed from a
White Oaks standpoint, the extern
sion of the Pecos Valley road from
Roswell to Albuquerque certainly
seems the most advisable as well as
practicable route, for thus it will
of necessity tap the vast coal and
iron fields of White Oaks and the
Salado, and the richest precious
mineral district in the West. This
route would also complete the link,
making through line from the
Gulf to the Pacific coast several
hundred miles shorter than any of
the other trans-continental lines
which, in itself is worthy the most
thoughtful consideration. The P
Y. would be of untold benefit tc
this section and White Oaks ought
to take some action to secure the
main line through here. Still, il
the original plans of the company
making Las Vegas the terminus
are carried out, it is barely posi-
bic that we will be favored witt
branch road, anyway.

NEW MEXICO INTERESTS.


From Santa Fe New Mexicau.l
Ex-Gov. Prince returned from Ogden
on Saturday afternoon, and reports that
the congress this year was superior in
numbers and influence to any which had
pre- ceded it. large number of senators,
governors and members of congress were
present, besides large representations OF
the mercantile and business communities
from the Mississippi to the Pacific. Colo
RADIO sent her governor and both mem
bers of congress, besides very large
delegation from all parts of the state.
Owing probably to the courts being in
session and almost everyone busy at this
season, no one went from New Mexico ex-
cept Gov. Prince, so that he had to look
after our interests alone. He succeeded,
however, in having all the resolutions
passed which effected this Territory.
The first strongly recommended our
immediate admission as a state. It was
very difficult to get it reported from the
committee on resolutions because they
wished to smother all resolutions as to
statehood in order to prevent contest
as to Utah. 1t was only by threatening
to bring the matter up in the congress
itself that Gov. Prince succeeded IN get
ting it reported In the congress it
passed without trouble, but led long
and heated debate on the admission of
Utah, as had been expected.
Our representative procured the pas
sage Of resolution asking the amend
ment of the "alien law so as to allow
foreigners to invest in mining property,
and the following resolution as to public
lands, which was important, as the
northwestern senators had opposed this
provision of the enabling act i'll Wash.
ingtOn last winter:
Resolved, That in making the usua
donations OF public land for educational
purposes to New Mexico on its admission
as a state, congress should take into con
sideration the fact that the Spanish
grants in that territory include all thu
best agricultural land, and that the long
delay IN her admission has caused al
the sections of value to be taken up un
der the q. S. land laws, so that the re
mainder of the public domain there il
comparatively worthless, and SHOULD
make the donations aforesaid proper
tlonately larger"
Gov. Prince introduced a resolution
asking for the designation of day a
the Columbian exposition to be know
as Silver Day, when addresses on tn,
silver question can be delivered and tin
day otherwise celebrated in an apprC
pirate manner This was adopted witt
great enthusiasm and comm ittee wa
appointed to carry out the plan. 1t i
believed that this Silver Day will b
made one of the most interesting feat
ues of the Worlds Fair, and it is hope
to have it fixed in September, near tn
days of Colorado and New Mexico.

Pecos Valley Oad.

FIom Rocky Mountain News.
The most important piece OF railway
destined to be constructed in the Trans
missouri country this season will be the
extension OF the Pecos Valley road from
Eddy, its present terminus, via Roswell
and White Oaks, to a junction with the
main line of the Santa Fc at Bernal, not
far from Las Vegas. While the FL Paso-
Denver short line has been talked Of, and
many other railway enterprises have con
sumed lots Of space in the newspapers,
Mcssrs Hagerman and Eddy have been
quietly at work and have secured the
s5,000,0O0 necessary for the extention
named.
The enterprise is an important one,
and destined to have large influence on
the growth Of Eastern New Mexico. The
Pecos valley road runs from Pecos City
on the Texas Pacific, to Eddy, now the
center Of one Of the most prosperous
/ agricultural sections in the whole West
THIS affords il an Eastern connection in
u very round about way. The proposed
extention will carry the road mp the rich
Pecos valley to Roswell, and thence west
ward and northward through the won
deriul mineral rehes Of the White Oaks
country to the contemplated junction
with the Sunte Fe. The increased facil
itics for travel and traffic with the out.
side world Is perhaps the least oi th'
advantages to be gained Ivy the Peco'
valley by the extention Of this line. Tn,
valley is now in need OF a local mark,
FOR it, grain, fruit, vegetables, alfalfa an,
other products. This il will find amor

ment will be stimulated 10y the cominJ

The public school meeting was fairly
well attended last Friday evening and
the several important features relating
to the new building were discussed at
length. The sentiment, however, of all
present, was to the effect that inasmuch
as an election, voting bonds to the
amount of $4,000 had been held, result
ing in favor of the bonds, the decision of
the majority should be abided by. A
resolution which was unanimously
passed, showing an expression of the
meeting, in substance was: "That, as
our board OF school directors was com
composed of competent and responsible
gentlemen, they proceed without further
delay with all the details necessary in
the sale OF bonds, location and building,

The Worlds Fair was opened
in 'blaze of glory last Monday.


Last Thursday evening the Odd Eel
lows goat, in some unaccountable man
ner, escaped from the lodge room and
strayed up town. Mr.. Goat hearing that
Joseph II. Whiteman was custodian of
the public reading room, and being per
sonally acquainted with Joseph, having
materially aided him iu his endeavor to
become true Odd Fellow, at once pro
ceeded upstairs to the reading room.
Not finding Joseph in, and being of lit
erary turn of mind, Bill set to devouring
such literature as he deemed best
adapted for his professional calling.
just as he had finished an OLD ABE
EAGLE, Joseph appeared on the scene.
The meeting of these two fraternal
brothers might have been disastrous
had Joseph not had the presence OF
mind and ability to pursuade Mr.. Goat
that his presence was not needed; and,
as he hit the bottom OF the stairs, his
goatship resolved to get even on the next
applicant for admission to his fraternal
organization.
