Into the SaCramentoS.

A trip into the Sacramento noun
tains over the III Paso and Northeast
ern railway il the correct thing for
every Ell Pasoau 10 make in order to
become familiar with the natural
wealth and beauty that now lies so
near our doors. When you 60 abroad
people expect you to know all about
the resources OF your own section of
the country and will not excuse ignor-
ance.
Through the courtesy of Mr.. A. s.
Greig, the general superintendent OF
the FL Paso and Northeastern railroad
more generally known as the White
Oaks road, left FL Psso on the morn
ing of Sept. Sd for Alamogordo and be-
You'd. noting in my journey many
things of interest to those looking for
to Alamogordo the road
gently ascends, passing along
a broad plain lying be-
tween the Organ range of mountains
on the west, and the Sacramentos on
the east, the valley showing it's fertil-
ity by its luxuriant native grasses and
fat cattle.
ALAMOGORDO.
Here I found a new live town full of
business activity and destined to be
the distributing and receiving point
for many miles around. 1t is temper
ance town, probably the only one in
the territory. The site is a desirable
one, located on the east side of the
track at au altitude of 1900 feet, the
land slopiug gently to the base of the
Sacramento mountains, about y miles
away. A plat consisting OF 80 acres
has here been subdivided into business
and residence lots, and five acre fruit
t..k hi at
reasonable figures. The saw mill now
being constructed here has a capacity
of 100000 feet per day, and will be
completed in about six weeks. The
machinery is of the latest and most i'm
proved kind a, d will be managed by
skillful and experienced parties from
the east.
WATER.
The water supply for domestic pur-
poses is piped from springs in the
mountains about four miles away. 1t
is unsurpassed for purity and softness.
For irrigation purposes the water is
brought from the canon near La Luz,
about six miles away. In short time
this water too, will be piped to prevent
waste. There seems to be no possibili-
ty of the supply ever failing. The in
corporators of the town are the sole
owners of this wate- right and the
lands covering the same.
BEYOND ALAMOGORDO.
OHere a branch of the road follows
along the base of the mountain north
to near La Luz, about five miles be-
yond: thence to the east up a canon to
the present terminus. When complet-
ed this branch will reach the summit
of the mountain, the grade rapidly ris-
ing from 1900 feet to al altitude of
about 5000 feet. The soil along the
mountain base is rich deep, fertile,
chocolate loan formed by the washings
of countless ages. The prospect here
for successful fruit raising seems very
encours cling, but, "a elsewhere, must
be under intelligent management to
procure the most desirable results.
With sufficient cultivation the almond,
peach and prune might be grown with
out irrigation.
UP THE CANON
Here the beauties of nature exhibit
themselves, wild and grand, at every
turn. About ten miles up, at an alti-
tude Of $500 feet. there is one OF the

A Joke on Joe.

At Eldred Col. Stone unexpectedly
encountered Joe Sibly, who is making
a stiff fight against Chas. Stone for
Congress. The greeting was very
warm and Sibley's salutation was:
"Well, Stone, we can't wish each other
success but we are friends for all
that"
Gen. r. J. Stewart, one of Col. Stones
speakers was standing by and this re-
mark of Sibley's gave him an oppor-
tunity of making one of his inimitable
speeches.
"Why, Sibley," he said, ''why can't
you wish each other success? You
know the story of the two lrishmen?
If not, I will tell you 1t was in a
quarry and on warm day. One OF
the Irishmen, wiping his brow, eX-
claimed, ''Be jabers Pat it is a warm
day, | could drink a whole kettle of
beer 'Ah, Nike said the other re-
proachfully, 'shure, ye wouldn't be
thinkin' ay drinkin' the whole of it
yerself and not offer me half? In
dade, then, [ think l would We'll,
We might as well offer me half, seein' as
how ye are not going to get any of it, ,
retorted the other"
To this Sibley laughed heartily and
good naturedly and turning to the by
standers, said: "The moral is applied
to me. Mexican Miner.
