PERALTA CANON.
Some Description of the Mines in the
Kent City Region of COchiti
District.
A Regular Stage Line 1naugurated-
An Assayer Wanted-News Notes
from Mining Camps.

As result of five days reportorial in
spection of the Cochiti mining district the
New MEXICAN on Wednesday laid before
its readers an exhaustive article on the
mineral resources of Pine canon. To-day
the Peralta canon region is given atten-
ton, and in connection Herewith the
New MEXICAN is pleased to publish the
first map of the district.
pERALrA CANON.
To adequately describe the grandeur
and majestic beauty OF the scenery in
Peralta canon one must be possessed of
the poetic imagination of a Byron. Nature
must have been in an amusing mood
when she fashioned this canon, for surely
lovelier or more grotesque place is not
to be found in the west Beautiful be-
cause of its grand and sublime scenery,
it's splendid stream of pure water and its
magnificent timber. Grotesque because
of the curious formations contained with
in its confines. After riding over treeless
plains one is possessed of the idea that
he Is entering fairyland when first his
vision beholds the Peralta region. Many
Indian legends are connected with the
canon, but the lack of space forbids their
recital. Great pyramids Of sandy depos-
its arise out of the mountain sides, each
capped with huge boulder, some of
which weigh tons, giving them the ap-
pearance of stone giants standing guard
over the mountains.
The canon begins at the Pueblo de CO.
chit and extends north for distance of
twenty miles. Any quantity of the finest
timber is obtainable and splendid
stream of water flows through its entire
length.
THE MINERAL BELT
in this canon commences about two miles
above Kent City and is between three
and four miles wide. The same number
of veins are found here that are found in
Pine canon, which lies eight miles north
east, thus bearing out the theory that all
the veins cross the four canons. They
are not quite as strong and distinct as
those found in Pine, but nearly 80.
Neither are the quartz veins quite as
large. The width of the veins is from
six to twenty feet.
The formation is porphyry and white
quartz and similar to that of Pine canon.
Prospectors in this canon claim that not
only can the veins be followed from Pine
to Peralta, but also beyond the latter
canon to La lara, some five miles distant.
Peralta canon, however, is ahead of the
other canons In one respect. 1t is the
only canon in which good sale has been
successfully carried through. This is not
because there have not been offers, but
because the majority of the prospectors
very foolishly hold their claims at exor-
bitant prices. An interest was sold in
the Us H. by Richard Dryer to Nc

In the land court to-day Hon. j. D.
W. Veeder concluded his argument in the
San Miguel Ford grant and was followed
by U. s. Attorney Reynolds for thegov-
eminent and Mr.. Clancy for the Morton in
terest.
Pension Agent De Puton and Capt. VIM.
Burchert, interpreter, have returned to
the city from trip through San Miguel
and Mora counties. All the members of
the commission will assemble in Taos
about May 1.
In the coal land contest of Muller VS.
Coleman, involving the O'Mara bank, the
secretary will be urged to reopen the
case, Mr.. Coleman declaring that he was
not, at the time of making the entry, a
deputy U. S. surveyor. He says the rec
ords of the surveyor generals Office attest
this fact, and he will push the contest to
have the interior departments action re-
viewed in the light of this fact.
Criminal affairs at Las Vegas are still
demanding the earnest attention of the
governor, the court and the civil officers
of the county. There are at present
twenty eight prisoners confined in
the Las Vegas Jail, and almost the
whole term of the court may
be taken up in the trial of criminal cases.
Other arrests are to be made. A public
meeting has been called tonight for the
purpose, as the Optic puts it. "to give ex-
pressions of gratitude and commentator
to the officers, from governor to chief
justice down, who are succeeding 80 admir-
