CONNECT AT WHITE OAKS.
Rio G,ande officials Think it Expedient to
Join Issues With the FL PasO &
Northeastern.

The Santa Fe correspondent for
the Rocky Mountain News is au-
thority for the statement that the
Rio Grande railway proposes to
make connection with the FL Paso
& Northeastern at White Oaks.
This will make an important
southern connection and place
Otcro county in complete touch
with the world. The correpond-
ent says
"Santa Fe is destined to awake
from its lethargy and to become
the leading town between Pueblo
and El Paso." Such were the
words of Il high Denver & Rio
Grande rail road official who has
Just returned from White Oaks
"The Denver & Rio Grande,
which has long been seeking an
outlet to the gulf, bas made ar
engagements with the El Paso &
Northeastern railroad to connect
with it at White Oaks by building
a line next summer from Santa Fe
to that place. The La Neta Pass
improvements and the recent re
building of all trestlings and
bridges between Antonito and San
Ia Fc and making them wide
enough for the standard guage
have that object in Wow"
The indications are that the
words of the official will become
true, for it is known among the
initiated that negotiations for the
above purposes have been going
on for some time. -AlamogordC
