PROPOSED FOREST RESERVATION.
Over Half Million Acres In Lincoln
nnnntv Involved,

Adyices received from Lincoln coun-
ty, confirm the fact that has thus far
only been surmised that w. H. Buntain,
superintendent of United States forest
reserves in New Mexico and Arizona,
who recently spent two weeks in the
CAPTAIN mountains, and around White
Oaks, Lincoln and Nogal, has picked out
~ townships which he will recommend
be set aside as forest reserve. Mr.
Buntain left the east Thursday, pre-
sumably to urge the authorities at
Washington to withdraw the land from
settlement.
The proposed reserve adjoins the Mes
calero indian reservation and takes in
the headwaters of the Rio Bonito, Rio
Ruidoso and Eagle creek. On the re-
serve as proposed are situated the cOun-
ty seat Of Lincoln and the settlement 81
Nogal. The Salado coal fields would
also fall within the reservation as would
the Captain mountains with their rich
mineral prospects. OF course, the for
nation Of the reservation would not
stop mineral development, but would
seriously handicap its growth In other
ways and therefore the Inhabitants of
that region will lodge a most emphatic
protest.
The opponents of the reservation
argue that closing over 100000 acres
to, settlers will forever stop all growth
and progress of that part of Lincoln
| county, which is at present showing
signs OF wonderful development. They
assert that only small part OF that
tract is covered with forests; that the
rainfall in that section Is much larger
than In any other part of the territory;
that the timber is needed for the devel-
opment of the country, and cutting it
has no influence upon the water supply.
The excellent farms Of that mountain
region, where potatoes and other crops
grow without irrigation, have been made
by clearing off the timber.
There is good timbered land upon the
/ MescalerO reservation and, 1t Is under
stood, that the forest supervisor Will
favor opening the reservation in order
to have the Indian timber lands in
cluded in the desired forest reserva-
tion.
There are rich mineral fields on the
reservation and fine agricultural lands
along the water courses. The Indian
authorities will, however, vigorously op-
pose the opening, 1t is said.
About year or two ago an effort was
made to have the Sacramento noun
tains set aside as q forest reserve, but
the project for some reason or other
never went through.

Argentine Seeking Immigrants.

Chicago, September 2.-Jose Faber, of
Buenos Ayres, is in this city on his way
to confer with DR.. Martin Garcia Me-
rou, minister of the Argentine republic
at Washington, relative to inducements
offered to Bohemians to leave this coun-
try to take up their abode in southern
parts of the Argentine republic.
Faber has chosen three Bohemian
newspaper men and priest, who will
explore the promised land at the ex-
pense of the Argentine republic, with
a view to inducing countrymen to leave
the United States. The Argentine gov
ernment, according to the statement Of
Faber, will offer each settler 500 acres
in the state of Chubut for small con-
sideration.

BIG ENTERPRISES.
The Cerrillos Smelter Sold In This
City Yesterday to A. W. Ten
nant and Others.
ANOTHER MILL FOR COCHITI
Plans for Big Power Plant to Run Gus
tom Mills and to Operate an Electric
Railway From Bland to Santa Fe
and Madrid.

A. w. Tenant, of this city, who is
rapidly earning the title of Mining
King of New Mexico" is a man of sur
prises. Whenever he makes a trip to
New York or Chicago there is sure to be
some deal in the wind which results in
bringing thousands or millions of dol
lars into New Mexico. 1t is not so long
ers the Bragaw-Potter mines at Han
over, Grant county, which are now a
veritable bonanza that Mr.. Tenant
says he would not trade even for the
Santa Rita group, for which the Stand
ard Oil people this year paid $1,000, 900.
1t was the acquisition of the Bragaw-
Potter mines that led to the latest deal
Of Mr.. Tenant, the purchase yesterday
of the smelter at Cerrillos.
The Bragaw- Potter mines at present
ship 200 tons of ore every day, on every
ton of which there is a handsome profit,
not only on the copper it contains but
also on the iron. The idea occurred to
Mr.. Tenant to make some Of the smell
ter profits himself, and also to do some
thing for his adopted county Of Santa
Fe. The smelter at Cerrillos is new;
that is, for certain well-known reasons,
has never been used Some weeks ago
it was purchased at public sale by H. c.
Wisner, of Detroit. YesterdayyMr. Ten
nant bought the plant for himself and
his associates. Its location in coal dis
trict Is excellent. The smelter at present
has one stack of sixty tons capacity a
day, but the machinery, power, etc, is
arranged for two stacks, and Mr.. Ten
nant will at once double the smelter's s
capacity to 120 tons day. Mr.. Tenant
will have the smelter started within
fifteen days, running on ore from his
Hanover mine. This will give employ
ment to quite a number of men, add
ing greatly to the prosperity of Ger
rillOs.
Another deal which Mr.. Tenant ne
gotiated on his trip east, from which he
has returned, was the sale of III. B.
Cartwright's option on the Crown Point
mines at Bland for $4,000. But the bust
ness does not end with that. The pur-
chasers, ex-senator Warner Miller and
w. e. Speir, two well-known million
aires Of New York City, have author
zed Mr.. Tenant to place a fifty or 100
ton mill at the Crown Point mines, and
he is now negotiating with Chicago
firm to build the mill, which will prob
ably be completed in the fall.
Mr.. Tenant said the Crown Point
deal was the quickest he ever made. He
met Mr.. Speir in Chicago, told him Of
the Crown Point property, spoke with
him an hour or 50, and Mr.. Speir at
once took the next train for New York
to tell ex-senator Miller Of the chance.
Mr. Tenant followed the next day, the
papers were signed, and the deal was
closed that will quadruple the value of
mining property at Bland within the
next few months.
Mr.. Tenant also interested eX-Sena-
tor Miller and Mr.. Speir in another
project that will be of great value to
this city if she proves to be alive to op-
portunities. This contemplated enter
prise is nothing less than the building of

10o0-ton custom mill on the Rio
Grande to treat the ore from the Cochi-
ii district. An expert engineer will ar
rive here within a few days to look over
the ground and to make an elaborate
report on the feasibility of the project.
large electric power station Is to be
built at the same time to furnish power
to the Bland mines, as well as to any,
body else within radius of thirty-five
miles who may desire it. Such a plant,
Mr. Tenant says, could furnish power
to an electric railway from Bland to
Santa Fe, as we'll as an extension of
such railway to San Pedro and Ger
rillos.
When these improvements are made,
and it is very likely that most of them
will be With iha next twelve months,
Santa Fe will ue in an enviable position,
that is, if the people Of this city are
wide awake to their opportunities. The
city Is known the world over as a eli
matte resort 1t is the center of min
ing district bounded on the west by
Bland, which is growing in Importance
with giant strides; with the coal fields
of Madrid at the very door almost; with
Cerrillos and its active smelter within
easy reach, and the San Pedro, Golden
and Ortiz copper and gold mines near
by being rapidly developed.
1t is the seat of the territorial gov
ernment, with all the business advan-
tages resulting, and the center of feder-
al activity in New Mexico. There are
excellent railway facilities by two lines,
a rich valley to grow produce for large
mountain sections near we'll
and other advantages.
Only inexplicable lethargy or stu
pidty can prevent Santa Fe from not
only being the capital but also the
metropolis of the southwest.
