Albuquerque, 80 named in honor OF
the Duke Of Albuquerque, q Spanish
nobleman, who was governor Of New
Mexico from 17O3 to ITO, was in 1881 "a

BERNALILLO COUNTY.

Bernalillo county is one of the largest
and richest counties in New Mexico. 1t
is the first county in point of population,
and has an area of 5,O24,136 acres. with
nearly 100000 acres subject to irriga-
ton. and about 100000 acres fit for
pasture.
The county is of irregular shape, being
about seventy. five miles from north to
south at its widest point and having an
extreme breadth from east to west Of
about 200 miles.

ly true that the reactionary forces of
boom growth have never been felt in
this city, aud under all there seems to
have been steady current OF develop
ment, and conservative expansion that
held the lines of wildcat speculation
and inflated values, and guided the city
on to sound basis.
In May, 1881, there we're ten good
frame and adobe houses in the town and
half dozen clusters Of the shanty class
of abodes, called by courtesy. houses.
A year before the first locomotive had
saluted the town with the signal of
progress and inaugural ed the new era of
modern development.
To-day there stands upon the site OF
this ''city of stakes" of 1881, a handsome
brick built and electric lighted city Of
$1,000 thrifty people, enjoying all the
comforts and cOnveniences OF the most
advanced American towns. Broad. we'll
shaded streets and avenues, solid brick
business blocks. splendid residences,
churches, schools and colleges every
thing, in fact, that goes to make up a
metropolitan city may be found here.
Albuquerque is centrally located at
the junction OF, two continental lines OF
railroad, running north and south and
east and west respectively, which alone
would insure commercial supremacy.
But the future of Albuquerque does not
rest upon it's railroad location. 1t rests
rather upon the fact that the city is
lorated in one of the most productive
valleys of the west, extending for many
miles north and south, and furnishing a
basis of future prosperity.
The country for miles around is rich
in minerals, with the development Of
which Albuquerque is certain to become
great smelling and reduction center.
1t has already machine shops, foundries,
mills and number Of factories, and is
destined to become at no distant day a
manufacturing center of great import
anca.
Tijeras canon, the only natural pass
through the Sandia and Manzano noun
tains, lies twenty miles east Of the town,

Great coal beds OF excellent bitumi-
nous quality are found in the Puerco
valley. 1t is 30 easily mined and han
died that it pays to team it with oxen to
Albuquerque and sell it as low as 81 per
ton. These coal measures extend
throughout the entire area of the valley.
and in the northern part, in the vicinity
Of Nacimiento and Copper City, the
veins are of unusual thickness. At one
point in the vicinity named vein has
been opened which shows twenty-five
feet OF clear coal, without particle of
"bone" or slate, and with solid roof.
From the Rio Puerco to the line of the
territory all the land in Bernalillo rounty,
as far as it has been prospected, is found
to be underlaid with coal in veins suffi-
GENTLY thick to pay for mining. Thi',
however, is lying useless for want OF
capital to provide for it's transportation
to market.
In agriculture this county is one Of
the foremost in NV Mexico. With IT.
rigation tho thrifty, attentive farmer be-
comes his own providence and is relieved
from the dangers of loss by drought or
flood. He is no longer Il hap hazard
creature of chance but has the same
surety OF return for his labor as the
manufacturer In this way the stability
and prosperity Of both are enhanced, as
they are mutual customers. In an irri-
gated country the population is denser
over the cultivated area. This is another
advantage. What has been eaid con-
corning special crops will give the far
mer general idea Of the farming re-
sources of this county; and it WILL suffice
to say here that every grain. vegetable
and fruit OF the temperate zone -four

most tender varieties will not be men,
aced by the action Of the climate.
The great extent of Bernalillo county
afforda diversified climate. In the Rio
Grande and Puerco valleys the weather
is very mild; the summers are long, with
genially warm days and cool nights, and
the winters never approach that severity
common in the humid region. The air
is dry, the elevation about 5000 feet, and

and forms the only feasible route for
railroads. This pass was used by
freighters from the time that trade was
opened between Mexico and the United
States. Albuquerque is also the gate
way to northern Arizona and the juno
ton Of the Atlantic and Pacific railroad
with the Atchison, Topeka 4 Santa Fe.
The New Mexico and Southern Pacific,
since incorporated into the Santa Fe
system, was the first railroad to reach
Albuquerque-April 10th, 1880, from
which date the history Of the modern
town begins. The old town, which ad-
joins it on the west, was at that time,
and many years before an important
central trading post in the territory. 1t
has population Of about 5000 souls,
half dozen stores and markets, and a
modern school system. 1t contains the
county court house and jail, costing
100000, the offices Of the Albuquerque
Street Railway company, the Territorial
Fair Grounds, and one of the oldest
church buildings on the continent. In
the summer of 1880, the Atlantic and
Pacific commenced construction work at
Albuquerque on the line running west,
and completed to Mojave, California, a
distance of 8O2 miles. In 1875 the town
was connected with the outside world
by a through telegraph service. The first
territorial fair was held in October, 1880,
and every year since fair has been held
on the same grounds.
The first street railroad company was
organized in 1880, and six months later
the line was in operation, connecting
the old with the new town. With many
improvements and several extensions it
has been operated continually for that
time.
The first gas works and electric light
plant in the territory were established
at Albuquerque, than which no city in
the west is better equipped.
The city is we'll supplied with daily
newspapers, and there are several week.

order Of merit. The Southwest H.

development Of the southwest, is

very favorable combination. The aver

spondingly lower. Indeed, taking Albu-
querque as center, the health.seeker
can choose the exact temperature for
comfort 1t may be warm in the city,
but within half days horseback or foot
journey it will be bracingly cool. The
person is hard to suit who finds fault
with such conditions.
These plateaux and plains afford the
very best grazing. They are covered
with gramma grass, and large areas Of
them could be irrigated by modern high
line bitches. The summers in these re-
gions are shorter and cooler than the
valleys. The rains are more frequent,
and the aggregate snowfall of the win
ter averages about as in southern Hi
nois or northern Kentucky. These
lands, are very fertile and suited to
the cultivation of the potato, apple and
cereal crops.
Climate is only matter of choice.
The immigrant can choose the warm
valleys or the cool plateaux. Another
thing is, that cyclone or blizzard is
unknown. The climate is a paradise for
invalids. Everything said concerning
climate in the general article on New
Mexico is applicable to this county.

diffuse the ekill that they have acquired
among others Of their tribes.
There is tailor shop. bakery, shoe
factory, carpenter shop, steam laun-
dry, and harness shop, for the boys,
and sewing and cooking school for girls.
The pupils manifest q high degree Of
interest in their work, and become, after
little patient instruction, readily prof.
Gent in the various lines Of work.
The pupils are allowed to pursue any
course for which they show the most
adaptability, an effort being made to de-

are best suited.
The present superintendent, Mr.. S. M.
McC owan, has had extensive experience
in matters pertaining to Indian educa-
ton, and seems thoroughly devoted to a
work which has absorbed the best years
Of his life.
