Four bales Of cotton and several bags

bids fair TO be- a general conflagration.

serious but for the prompt action of
the employees of the electric light plant,
who turned on such n steady atream of
water that the flames were ex,lngulshed

Rock Island Coming This Way.

For some time the Rock Island man.
agement has been figuring onstriking off
from Liberal, Kans., and coming down
into New Mexico, through Union, Qua
dalupe, San Miguel and Lincoln counties
of this territory to connect with the Ell
Paso e. Northeastern road either in the
Salado country, or further north. A
few months ago, the Rock Island sent
an engineer over the line in blackboard,
and his report was e~videntably favor
able, for there are now further rumors
about the roads entering New Mexico.
Not a few railroad men believe that the
Rock Island will absorb the Ell Paso &
Northeastern, and that inside of two
years. the Rock Island will be running
into Ell Paso over its own line. Hereto
fore, entangling agreements with the
Santa Fe and Gould interests have pre-
vented the road from any active steps to
enter this territory.

Death Of Mrs. M. Seligman.

Hon. Bernard Seligman received the
sad intelligence today, that Mrs. NJ.
Seligman, mother of Bernard and Adolf
S%eligman, of this city, died at Gau-Al-
hesheim, Germany, January Is, 1899, at
the advanced age of 80. She left seven
children, two daughters and five sons,
all living, in England. Germany and the
United States. Mrs. Seligman vas a
remarkable woman in many ways, She
brought up her children to be honor
able and valuable citizens, as might be
inferred from the honored career of the
two sons who have for so long been es-
teemed members of this community, and
who are so widely respected throughout
New Mexico. Mrs. Seligman was a
m of rugged and sterling good
sense, and a just, atfectionate parent,
and the many friends of the Messrs.
Seligman in this territory will sympath-
lie with them in their loss.

Taos Troubles,

Later information from Taos relative
to the threatened troubles there. says
that a change of venue was taken in the
case of Messrs. Roberts and Pope,
charged with disturbance of the peace,
from Taos to Ranches precinct, and from
there there was another change to Cor
dova precinct, where the matter rests.
In the "a time there were some 20
shots exchanged on the Taos plaza the
other night, in the way of pleasantly:
but the craftsmanship vas very bad,
much to get things started there in a
wild and woolly sort of a way, but at
present adyices no act of a dangerous
nature has been committed,

A MOUNTAIN COUNTY W. NTED.

There is considerable agitation in the
press of the county and in the Legislature.
having for it's object the division of Col
fax county, the proposition being to dl-
vide it by an east and west line, Ration
to be the county seat of the northern,
and Springer the county seat OF the
southern county. 1t is shown that the
taxable wealth of the county is sufficient
for the maintenance of two counties.
and that the distances required to be
travelled in the transaction of public
business are too great for convenience
and make heavy expenses, which point
we think a strong one in favor OF divl-
sion. Other weighty reasons are given
in support of a division, all of which
seem good. But in regard to the man
ner of division, the proposition to divide
by an east and west line is a mistake.
and will never be carried into effect.
The natural division of the section OF
country comprising this county is to
separate the western, mountainous por-
ton from the eastern section. The
various mining camps and other settle
ments along this range should be
grouped into one county, as they have
common interests to unite them, and are
closely connected, geographically. This
will become an accomplished fact in the
near future, with the natural central
point, Elizabethtown, as the county
seat of the mountain county.-Elizabeth-
