PRESS. COMMENTS.
Promise of the recOs.

General Manager Jeff N. Miller, of the
Pecos Valley railway, returned Wednes-
day from an overland trip from near the
headwaters of the Pecos, He reports the
storm of Friday, last week, near Puerta
de Luna, where his party tarried, as
something terrible and from all accounts
more severe than at Eddy. Mr.. Miller
has great hopes of the early construction
of the line between Roswell and Wash
burn and is of the opinion the engineers
will have the survey finished in about
thirty-fve days. Work is progressing on
a wagon road between Roswell and the
White Oaks country, toward the con-
struction of which Mr.. Hagerman donated
$1,000 and other members of the com
pany considerable amounts. This road
will make the hauling of produce from
the mountain country to Roswell an easy
matter, for it is all down hill grade.
When the railroad is finished to Wash
burn the whole cattle trade of southeast
New Mexico and northern Texas will have
thirty hour shorter route to Kansas
City, which will insure the shipment of a
hundred cars of stock from Eddy to one
at present. Besides this the new line
will bring in hundreds of immigrants to
one at present and will also reduce freight
rates from Kansas City and Chicago
Eddy Current.
