that The senate at least Is willing to do

RAILROADS. IN Nrw MnNIco

New Mexico. ColOrsdOs neighbor on
tine south. will probably see the CON
struction this year OF certain lines OF
railroad that are greatly needed and
which should have been built long ago.
says the Denver Republican. 1t is prob
able that the southeastern part Of the
territory viii be- opened by the con-
struction OF one or two lines that VIII
traverse H. and chat a road VIII be
built to the promising mining district
Of Cochiti.
New Mexico's development has been
retarded by hack u railroad connection
between It's mining camps and b
great ore markets. II has In the At
Gibson. Topeka n santa Fe a good main
line, but there are comparatively few
branches. Unlike Colorado, which, ex-
cept In it's northwestern quarter, Is
gridironed with railroads, Sew Mexico
has but few roads other than the main
line OF the Santa Fe. The Santa Fe
runs through the heart OF the territory,
but 1t touches no mining district. and
with few exceptions the latter are 10
remote that 1t Is -impractlcable to trans
port the ore produced to market.
The Cochitl district IL a mining local
ity that would almost certainly have
obtained a railroad IL II had beer In
Colorado. Although Its distance from
the main line OF the Santa Fe Is great
enough to make the transportation OF
ore by wagon impracticable. II is short
considered In connection with railroad
construction. The Rio Grande would
have covered that distance long ago
II Cochlti had been in this state and
80 close to It's main line.
In case these and other needed lines
are built In the rear future, New Mex
leo viii experience its long delayed
mineral development. 1t undoubtedly
possesses great wealth In both gold and
copper. but capital will not venture
upon the development or mining claims
when II Is known hat the product OF
| the mines which might be opened cam
not be shipped with profit. The on
| structiOn of mills near the mines Is also
checked because u IL impracticable In
the absence OF a railroad to transport
coal at a sufficiently low cost. It Is
hoped that these obstacles will soon
be overcome.
