The Art Preservative

In this paper Saturday the interest
ing and instructive contents of the new
prospectus of the Black Range Rail-
way Company were considered at some
length, but modesty forbid discussion
of the beautiful mechanical execution
of the fifty-four page pamphlet in the
general article. The unvarnished truth
is that the pamphlet was printed and
bound in the New Mexican establish
ment, and the New Mexican is justly
proud of it. Mechanically it is as near
faultless as the very best modern IA
~cilities and the most skillful printers
could make it. It's cover, unique in de-
sign, and, handsomely printed in gold
ink on an olive-green background, pre-
sents a most attractive appearance. The
letter press is clear and perfect. Com
petent and impartial critics pronounce
it as fine a specimen of the art pre-
sentative of all arts" as can be pro-
duced in any book printing office in the
country.
