so broadly made. must be received as
having something more than passing
importance. Says Holland:
About a year ago il was reported in
this correspondence that American
capital. most of it raised in New York
city. was seeking railway communica-
ton from Ell Paso, Texas, to the fine
harbor at Tobolobampo in Mexico.
Ii was at Tobolobampo that a few
years ago a fraternal colony was estab-
lished with view to exploiting indus
trial socialism. This harbor on the
west coast of Mexico is without a SUI
perior anywhere from Cape Horn to
Alaska The country itself back for
miles from the sea is fertile, the eli
mate salubrious and there was every
thing in the situation that nature
could furnish to tempt those who had
faith in the success of industrial So
cialism. But the experiment was a
failure and it seemed as though this
fine harbor might. perhaps. be hereaf-
ter neglected. especially if the Near

ultimately the completion of the line

This project had been carefully con-

us the Philippines. and before Hawaii
became territory of the United States.
Those two events FASTENED the purpos-
es of these capitalists. They had not
thought of completing the line to To-
bolobampo for some years to come. But
when the Philippines became ours and
Hawaii as well and IL was certain that
there would be at an early day Il vast
development of trade between the
United States and the orient, the To-

THE SMALL MINER
CAN NOW DO BUSINESS WITH THE
A & N. N. ROAD.
Development OF the Country Bet
ween Lordsburg:and MorenCi.-
FL paso's Opportunity.

George NJ. Jacocks. president of the
Federal Copper company. returned this
morning from trip to the Clifton and
Morenci country. He says that it is
the richest mineral section in the west
and will some day have an enormous
population.
THAT is the country Ell Paso must
look to- said Mr.. Jacocks, for it is
the richest in the country. Conditions
are changing there now and very soon
most of the trade will be coming here.
Heretofore the Arizona and New Mex
leo railroad company has held to the
policy of the English stockholders and
kept the country from developing. The
company charged such high freight
rates that small mining companies
could not ship over the line at all and
none of the many hundreds of small
miners have done anything.
THAT entire country from the line
of Arizona to the mines at Morenci is a
bulk of ore and it is all taken up by
men of small means. They are able to
work on a small scale but cannot open
the mines extensively and operate
smelters like the big companies. so
have been handicapped.
THE Phelps-Dodge company, whose
mines are at Morenci. had a great deal
of trouble getting rates from the A &
n. NJ. road and at one time threatened
to build their own line from Clifton to
Deming paralleling the other road.
This brought the road to its senses
and it made a reduction in rates.
Now the small fellows can operate
their mines and ship their product to
Ell Paso. They are at work and getting
out thousands of tons of ore every
week and will soon be doing even bet
ter"
Mr.. Jacocks says he is sure road
will be beuilt in here from Lordsburs
by either the Phelps-Dodge people of

the A & N NJ, road for the must Of
necessity get their supplies here and it
wuold be bad business to give it all to
the Southern Pacific. He thinks that
this road would be the most important
enterprise this city has ever considered
and no time should be lost in persuad-
ing them to build.
lei Paso is destined to be the most
important mining center in the west"
continued Mr.. Jacocks. land it is al
ready becoming that. There will be
other smelters here and the one here
will be increased regularly from time
to time The railroads centering here
will bring everything else the city
needs. The big mining companies
must have railroad competition and
they are coming to Ell Paso for it.

tween that port. Hawaii. the Philip

The expectation doubtless is that the
greater part of the traffic. especially of

to- the orient. may be induced to take
this route in view of the fact that. sail
ing on the great circle. there is con-
siderable saving in time. For instance
from Tobolobampo to the Philippine
islands the distance on the great circle
is 1900 miles shorter than from any
other port upon the Pacific coast. and
il. is expected that by means of the
new railroad traffic between Kansas
City and Tobolobampo may be accom-
plished in forty-eight hours.
Ii is possible that this proposed
steamship line may be Included in the
combination of Atlantic and Pacific
steamship corporations of which there
is so much talk Just now. talk which
seems to have some basis. The I'M
derstanding here is that the Pacific
Mail. the Atlantic Transport line. and
perhaps the Red Star line. whose YES

combination. and it is thought posi-

When General Manager Ramsey of

declined. Mr.. Ramsey said that he
knew absolutely nothing about the al
legged plans of the stockholders of the
company in New York. and that he
had nothing to conceal because he had
no more information on the subject
than was conveyed to him by the re-
porter.
Mr.. Ramsey admits that the result of
the national election may so far react
upon the country traversed by the
present road as to cause a forward
movement on the part of the company.

speculation. Mr.. Ramsey declines to
have a word to say.
The impression that has been gained
from private sources is that no extern

plated. But it is barely possible that
