DR.. Joseph Mullen Thinks the
Captain Region Ideal For
COnsumptiVes.
THE STATES 70 HAVE SANITARIUNS
OlOudcrOf surpasses Anything That the
Eminent Traveller Ever Saw in
the Way of Summer
Resort.
Number 2

DR.. Joseph Mullen, oculst for the G. H.
& S. A. railway, with headquarters in
Houston, Texas, was in Captain Sun day
and paid this Office pleasant call.
The doctor talked freely of the inn
pressions he had formed with regard to
the country. He went to Cloudcroft,
and thinks that place surpasses any he
ever saw as summer resort, but says
the altitude is little too great for per-
sons suffering from consumption. From
Cloudcroft he came overland to Captain
by the way of the Mescalero agency,
Ruidoso and Fort Stanton, and his visit
was made for the purpose of investigat-
ing from medical standpoint the
adaptibilitY of the country, as regards
climate, altitude, ETC., for sanitarium
purposes for consumption and kindred
diseases, and the investigation was
made in the interest of the Southwest
ern Medical Review, to which DR.. Null
len is regular contributor.
The doctor says that his investiga-
tions have demonstrated that this Sec
tion is simply ideal for the purpose
named. and that it has no equal any
where He is immensely pleased with
what he has learned.
There is move on foot says the
doctor, 'though as yet no active steps
have been taken, for each state in the
Union to establish building for SANTA
rum purposes within the reserve, to
which the respective states will send
will be an immense undertaking, but l
have implicit faith that the plans will
be eventually carried out. The benef-
ciary societies are also interested in the
matter, and already several applications
have been filed with the marine service
by these societies, notable among which
are the A. 0. U. WIS, for land within
the reserve, on which to erect buildings
to be used as homes and hospitals for
their sick and aged"
Whatever is done toward the plans
outlined above will be of direct benefit
to Captain. The climate here, only six
miles distant from the Fort, is undoubt-
edly as healthy as that place. 1t is
only reasonable to suppose that as soon
as any definite move is made to carry
out these plans for public benefit, pri-
vate capital will take hand, and fine
private santariums be erected here.
With these sanitarium features in ad-
dition to her great natural resources of
coal and iron and precious metals, and
the surrounding stock and farming
country, which is unsurpassed any
where, the future of Captain is assured.
No other town in the territory can in
the least compare with our little city as
regards prospects for future growth and
advancement.-El Captain.

J. c. Dunn is Of the opinion that 0tero
county is ell right as an agricultural
section and that all that is required on
the plains is farmers who will expend
"elbow grease" in coaxing crops above
the surface.
When Mr.. Dunn started to work last
spring on his ranch two miles north OF
Alamogordo, he was told that ranching
could not be proftably prosecuted on
the plains, owing to lack of moisture.
His experience In California taught him
different, and disregarding dismal pre-
dictions that would have discouraged q
timid man, he began farming on practi-
cable principles. He now states that

faction, that there is plenty of moisture,
provided the ground is kept well broken.
At no time during the summer has the
plowed soil been too dry for cereals and
vegetables. He now has potato vines

this staple article will grow on the plains

The proposed changes In that great
railway line which traverses New Mexico
the entire length of the territory, the
Santa Fe, (which changes railway men be-
lieve, or profess to believe, will be made
within the next year, will create con-
sternation in some places and JOY in
others when the facts become generally
known. Nothing else could happen to so
thoroughly disturb the industrial status
of New Mexico for whole towns will be
practically wiped out, new towns and
cities created and the maps of nine of
the nineteen counties in the territory
will be changed.
The present road from the northern
line of the territory to the Rio Grande
river above Albuquerque abounds in
heavy grades and bad places which give
no end of trouble on account of wash
outs during the rainy season. 1t is now
proposed to run the line from the neigh
borhood of Dover switch, between Sprin-
ger and Maxwell City and pass through
by Sweetwater to the north of the Tur-
key mountains, thence near old Fort
Union and into Las Vegas. This route
will escape the heavy hills by Springer
and Wagon Mound and will leave both
OF those towns out in the cold. The
troublesome canon OF the Mora from
Shoemaker to Watrous will be avoided
and the distance into Las Vegas mater
tally shortened.
Now comes the most important change
of all. The distance from Las Vegas to
Santa Fe is now s5 miles and 1t is be-

be nominated for elector for the Fourth

workers, who is able to appreciate good,
honest work in another, l BEG space in
your columns to second all they have
said III Mr.. Beckwith's favor, and to add
that we plain working Democrats have
known b. C. Beckwith since his boyhood:
have seen him fight his way up unaided
to fine position at the bar as a lawyer,
and while working for his meat and bread
he was always ready to respond to any
demand made on him by the Democratic
party. We know. all of US, that cam
paign after campaign he has rendered
valuable service to the party We also
know that he has not asked for or re-
ceived any reward at the hands of the
party.
If good honest work in season and out
of season for marty success should ever
be considered in party councils or con-
ventions then, in our opinion, the time
has come to consider his work Without
Gispraging the merits OF other candidates
for the nomination, we think that not only
on account Of party service is Mr.. Beck
with entitled to receive the nomination.
but he has demonstrated on the stump
that he is the equal of any as a political
speaker. Those who heard his sCoeeches
in the late campaign are unanimous in
saying tkat no better vote winning
speeches were made in Wake county.
So let the convention nominate Mr.. Beck
