Takes Name From Mountain Of Same
Name
From Topeka journal


From Topeka Journal
The town OF Tucumcari derived its
name from the mountain of that name
that forms the setting I'm the back
ground against which the town rs seen
by the passengers who pass through
the place on the train
Mt Tucumcari is peculiarly shaped
peak standing clear and distinct. quite
alone and separate from the other
mountains of the series Mt rucum.
carl Is not wonderful because Of it's
height for Il Is not tall peak. bur it's
distinction comes from the fact that IL
stands alone and the formation OF the
peak is so evenly regular Il TIA al.
most perfectly round, and the sides
form q gradual slope until they nearly
reach the top. whore plateau seems
20 be surmounted by another mountain
peak Of nearly the same shape as the
base. The second peak has the same
clear and regular features as the bot
tom part The top OF the peak Is per-
fectly level and embraces an area OF
perhaps seven acres The top IS stud
dod with pine trees and other timber.
The mountain peak can be clearly
seen from the trains
The town Is a thriving little place Of
II Is the supply center now for the vast
sheep and cattle country surrounding
the town. The railroad invading that
section has done away with the neces-
! sity of froiEhting goods and provisions

wholesale house Is doing a lucrative
business. lumber yard. hotel. and
/ large Wholesale and retail outftting
store and wool storage warehouse. to-
gether with the many saloons and few
little stores comprise the business sec
ton Of the town. II Is a noticeable fact
that although Tucumcari Is a younger
, city than several other towns along
/ the line and that It is regarded as the
toughest town along the line IL has
moro painted surface In evidence In
proportion TO It's size than any OF the
I other frontier towns.

I thirty acres

drink and smoke while listening 10 the
songs and watching the 1erpsichoreau

II Is wide open town as are all
of the frontier towns Of this western
country. Gambling is the principal
amusement and occupation of the Idle
/ portion OF the population of the town
and the cowboys.
| The people of the little city have
great hopes Of II becoming a large bus

Is certain that the town has bright
