LOOKING FOR HOMES.
Railroad Travel Is Expected to Be heavy
Next Month.

Travel Is light just at present, but
the railroad men say they look for
large tourist and home-seeker vista
ton when the grain harvest in the CEN
trail western states Is harvested. Good
times in those states makes more home
seekers for the valleys and foothills Of
the Rocky mountain region, for 1t Is
fact that it isn't the new immigrant
from abroad nor the New England or
eastern states farmer that moves west
ward at one jump. The people who
come out here in search of new homes
and business locations are the people
who have moved west by degrees and
their western born sons and daughters.
One railroad man, speaking OF this
western movement, put it thus:
"There are large number Of farm
ers in Iowa, Minnesota, Wisconsin, ILL
nois and Indiana who saved up little
money and are looking about for places
to buy homes Of their own. The farm
ers' national congress at Denver, to be
held on August 81, Is the object that
we are working on, and we propose to
get lot Of those people out here and
let them see the big crops. The limit of
return tickets will be October 81, and
that will give them ample time to look
around and make selections for homes

IMPORTANT ACEQUIA CASE.
Judge McFie Handed Down a Decision in
the Las Truchas Case.

Judge McFie handed down an impor-
tant decision yesterday in the quo war
ranto case of the Territory ex rel Ortiz
ct al. VS.. Martinez. in Rio Arriba coun-
ty, in which the court takes occasion to
pass in strong and unequivocal terms
on the duties Of the officers Of acequia
corporations under the laws Of New
Mexico. The respondents. being the
commissioners of an acequia, and ex-
offlcio the election Judges thereof. for
the purpose of perpetuating themselves
In office and extending their terms, con-
cealed themselves on the day of cleo
tlon fixed by law, and failed to hold the
election. A portion of the voters and
owners Of water rights assembled In
mass meeting. and finally selecting
emergency officers, held an election, In
which a minority of the community
participated. The court upholds this
election, and GUSTS the negligent COM
missioners from office, holding that
they cannot violate their trust and the
statute to their own benefit. District
Attorney Gortner represented the sue
cessful relators. and Hon. T. B. Catron
the respondents. 1t Is understood that
an appeal will be taken.

ALFALFA FEEDING.
The Great Ranch Owners in Western Texas
Have an Eye on New Mexico.

Cattle all through the great plains
country We're never in better condition
than they are right now" said Pan
handle stockman visiting Eddy county
recently. 1.-THE Pecos Valley road will
catch great many shipments Of cattle
from that country in the future that
have been going to market over the
Fort Worth & Denver and other roads.
The reason for this is that the owners
of the big pastures bordering on that
road have positively forbidden the fur
ther driving of cattle through their in
closures. So the only outlet will be for
them to come to the Pecos Valley road.
There are great many owners Of fine
cattle all over the Panhandle country
who are looking to New Mexico as a
place in which to winter and feed their
stock. l believe that If the right effort
were made company could be formed
over there to buy large tract of Pecos
valley irrigable land and grow alfalfa
young stock could be driven over and
fed for the winter and returned to pas
lures in the spring. The stockmen over
there are the best fixed and most inde-
pendent lot of men I ever saw. THEY
have graded up their herds until now
there is hardly scrub to be found
anywhere, and large per cent of the
stock is full blood. The cattlemen all
over that section have money In bank,
and they will not sell their stock unless
they get fair price. But the winter
feeding question Is serious one for
them, and they naturally look this way
for solution, as they can see what
others are doing in different parts of
the valley"

HON. c. r. EASLEY RETURNS.
He Is Pleased with the Result of the Kan
sas City Convention.

Hon. Charles F. Easley, chairman of
the New Mexico Democratic committee,
returned home last night from Kansas
City and other points in,M -.ssoufi. Nat
urally, he Is pleased with the result OF
the national convention, and he says no
matter what the press reports say, Da-
vid B. Hills behavior at Kansas City
stamps him as great man and Dem
ocrat of the purest ray serene. Hill, he
says, Is to open the Bryan-Stevenson
campaign in Virginia at an early day.
The report that Delegate Davidson, of
Pinos Altos, cast the vote for Towne Is
an error Mr.. Easley states that the
five voted for Stevenson, and E. G. de
Baca, of Las Vegas, was the one who
cast a complimentary vote for Towne.
but changed and made the New Mexico
vote solid for Stevenson.
He also says the manner In which
Kansas City handled the crowd OF 1OO,-
200 visitors on July was an eye-opener
for the eastern people present. Espe-
cially the Tammany delegates. most OF
whom had never been west of the Mis-
sissippi, expressed the greatest surprise
and admiration on this subject.

Forty Citizens of the Mining Camp Secure
an Injunction EnjOining the Election
Board from Holding Municipal
Election on July 10.

Last night about 9 o'clock. Harry
Baldridge, the 16-year- -old son Of Mr..
and Mrs. ]. C. Baldridge, was acci-
dentally drowned at Goodwin's natato-
rum, at Albuquerque Harry, In
company with several companions,
went up to the pool last night about Z
o'clock to attend a private bathing par
ty. He had been taking swimming les
sons. and was just learning to master
the crafty art, consequently the pleas
ure Of plunge in the cool waters was
rendered all the more enjoyable. He
was noticed by the other bathers up
until o'clock, when he was seen on the
trapeze which hangs over the middle of
the pool. After that time no one seems
to have seen him, and at length his
companions, noticing his long absence
made inquiry Of the proprietor as to
whether he had gone home or not Up
on being assured that he had not they
looked for him outside the building. Not
finding him there they suspicious were
aroused, and upon looking in his lock-
menced series of divlngs by the terri
fled boys. Not thinking that he could
drown in the middle Of the pool, where
the water Is only s or 6 feet deep, they
started in at the back corners, where
depth of 10 feet is attained. Their
search proved fruitless, and finally Jo-
seph Tierney made a plunge into the
middle and came up bearing the white.
lifeless body of the boy.

The ORGANS.
Their Geological Structure Work That
Has Been Done on Mines.


OF the new mining district in the Or
gan mountains of Dona Ana county,
the Mining Reporter states that the
upheaval of the Organ and San An
dreas mountains produced extensive
fracturing and a widespread disturb
ance of the sedimentary rocks.
Along the line of fracture metamor-
phism, decomposition and ore deposit
tions have taken place. The predomi-
mating ores on the west slope are cop
per, lead, silver and zinc, while on the
east of the range gold and silver with
copper and lead are found"
In a sense the district is not new
one. Since silver and lead ores have
been mined in a desultory manner for
the past forty years, the district,
though, has but recently come into no
tice as a copper producer through the
operations of the Torpedo Mining Com
pany, an association of Chicago capt.
talists who have secured a group Of the
most promising claims In the district.
A railroad from Las Cruces to Organ
the seat of the sfe,, mine, thence via
San Augustine taha 20 connect with
the Pecos Valley & Northeastern, is in
contemplation.
Some gold and silver mining has been
done on the eastern slope of the Organs.
A small mill has been erected in Texas
canon, twelve miles southeast Of Organ.

which the people of Bland get their wa

creek. and at one time were piled up
on the banks to the depth of foot or
more. compelling the people to dig
springs on the hillsides for the domestic
water supply. A heavy rain storm
which occurred several days ago caused
