ROCK ISLAND EXTENSION.
A Survey Is Now Being Made Between
White Oaks and LibAral. Kas.

Chief Engineer Sumner of the FL
Paso & Northeastern railway left White
Oaks last week with corps of men to
make blackboard survey from White
Oaks to Liberal, Kansas, a terminus of
the Rock Island railroad.
The proposed road will pass directly
through the very heart Of good cattle
country, which begins with the TX
ranges at Three Rivers, and on through
the Carzozo ranges at Carizozo where
thousands Of heads of graded cattle may
be seen grazing over millions of acres
of nutritious grasses ON either side of
the road. When White Oaks is reached
q mining belt is entered which has as
yet, outside of q few we'll improved
properties, been only partially prospec-
ted. Here are hills of gold ore and
valleys of placer, mountains of iron, and
marble; hundreds OF acres of very SD
perior sand stone, red and white, which
Is excellent In endurance and beauty.
The coal deposit is extensive, being on
three sides Of the town OF White Oaks.
besides these, are forests Of timber in
the adjacent mountains, and water
everywhere.
Beyond White Oaks, 8 to 20 miles, IL
the Jicarilla mining district containing
thousands OF acres of placer grounds, as
we'll as many varieties of lead minerals.
Iron and copper are abundant, and
capital is going into the district to de
velOp Its resources. Further northeast
Is the Gallina district, which Is one of
the most promising gold, silver, copper
and lead districts In New Mexico. Cop
per, lead and silver mines are now being
worked there, and with railroad 1t
will be one of the busiest camps on the
Northeastern route, as most II not all
the ores are refractory and will require
treatment by smelter. The district also
has valuable timber lands which will BE-
of great commercial profit when railroad
transportation is at hand.
Beyond this district the road will en-
ter the stock lands of the Pecos river,
which will also be valuable agricu'-
tural and horticultural district when
the attention of capital Is attracted to
1t, and 1t will or should be settled up by
class Of. energetic and Industrious
farmers similar to those In the vicini-
ties of Roswell and Carlsbad In Chaves
and Eddy counties. Crossing the Pecos
country the road will continue through
fine grazing country to the Kansas
line, few miles beyond which 1t will
connect at Liberal In southern Kansas
with the Rock Island railroad, making
through line Of quick freight and pas
senger traffic between all adjacent
points northeast and southwest.
This road will be fed by an immense
scope Of territory on either side, con.
tanning resources Of almost every char
acter, and will open upoa new country
from the southwestern to the north
eastern boundary of the territory OF
New Mexico. The road will not only
have an abundance Of coal at Salad0
and White Oaks, but ON both sides OF
the line for SO miles beyond the White
Oaks district. Coal can, besides the
market In southern United States and
Mexico, be moved In great quantities to
the country north OF White Oaks.
