4 mammoth irrigating enterprise
has been undertaken at Deming, y. VI.
a company has been organized at Santa
Pc, consisting Of New Mexico and east
crn capitalists, whose purpose is to re-
claim over 100, 900 acres OF desert land
near Deming. This is one of the most
important irrigation schemes ever I'M
dertaken in the territory, and the con-
tract for the necessary canals and
reservoirs, which has been let TO this
company by the New Mexico irrigation
commission, is the first that commits
sion has awarded. It is believed that
the new company is sufficiently strong
financially TO accomplish the under
taking, and that the work which Is
soon to begin will be rapidly pushed to
completion. Congress in 1898 APP
propriated 500 900 acres OF the
public domain in New Mexico
to promote irrigation, and 100000
dIito " lILitooD bhN AAC" VI 'e-NNt
in the Rio Grande. An irrigation COM
mission was created by the territorial
legislature and this commission is
authorized to make contracts with
companies and individuals for con-
struction OF canals and reservoirs upon
satisfying the commission OF their
ability TO accomplish the same. The
company which has just secured a con-
tract for such a work At Deming is
strong one, and unquestionable means
business. 1t has six months within
which to begin the work and three
years to complete the plant aud convey
water to the entire tract. The land
lies between Deming and Silver City,
in Grant and Luna counties, and it is
said there is no finer land in the terri
tory. The irrigation commission has
under consideration several other
propositions of like nature and it is
probable that other contracts will be
let soon.

ArizOna's Pioneers.

The old timers are fast passing and
like the members of the Grand Army
of the Republic the Arizona pioneers
will soon be memory only.
In the hurry and turmoil OF the busy
life of man, but little is thought of the
days long since passed.; the men of e
years ago; the men who stood in the
breach in Arizona when courage and
sterling manhood was the territOry's
only capital; when the sun rose in
doubt and often set in despair; when
the few had to contend with the many,
and such many.
We have no desire to stop the wheels
OF industry and go back to the stirring
times of the past, but we do like occas-
ionally to this day Of commercial hurry
and contention, to refer to the old fell
lows who accomplished so much to-
wards making onr present happy homes.
We like to pick rose from the present
era of good will and prosperity and lay
it in the lap OF the gray haired man
who gave the best years of his life that
such a flower might bloom and blossom
in this beautiful vale of ours.
1t is the ripened fruit of the ancient
tree that is most precious; it is the
dear old head that is bleached by time
and early struggles that appeals to the
best there is in son. So we ask our
readers indulgence in referring to
these men and women of early Arizona
and ask that they not be overlooked
and forgotten in the mad rush for COM
mercial gain. The hope and the well
come of our territory is in the hands
OF our youth; its past history is ro-
nance, it was made by years of danger
and strict fidelity to public duty, it was
handed down to us through the smoke
and battle and rifles deadly aim, It is
as priceless as the honor OF our country
and we want our youths to realize that
Arizona today, the territory they now
live in. came to them through the fiery
furnace of frontier warfare, a heritage
that is as priceless and holy and was
bought at the sacrifice of thousands of
noble men and women. Think well of
the purchase and treasure well the
honor OF the men who made it.-Gazette.
The Santa Fe will increase the wages
of all its skilled employees in the me-
chanical departments from Chicago to
Albuquerque. The International Ma
chinists association held conference
at Topeka with the railroad officials
and this agreement was reached.
There was no discord manifested at the
meeting, but the company recognized
that the requests of the machinists
were reasonable and granted them.
The advance gives to men who former
ly received under s. per day an adj
vance of - cents, and to those who re-
ceived So per day an increase of 10
cents. Gang bosses receive an increase
of % cents per day. The request for
shorter hours was not granted.
