A telegram in the Denver News from
Philadelphia says:
Announcement was made today by
Edward B. Smith & Co., of this city,

Francis T. Gowan. president of the

In a position to talk in detail on the
subject. He said the transfer would
mean a revolution in the management
of the road, but in what way he could
not say. When asked IL the Pennsyl.

Announcement of the sale was made
after the stock exchange had closed

the last six months rumors have con

Fee railway, the Missourui Pacific rail
way, the st. Louis e San francisco
railroad and the Rock Island railroad,
There is a strong belief that the last

belief is strengthened by the fact that

BERNALllLO COUNTY.
Hon. {. A. Miera Talks on the Fl
nances of This County.
IN EXCELLENT CONDITION.

Hon. L. A. Miera. chairman of the
board of county commissioners of the
county of Bernalillo, is in the capital
on a visit to his mother and to his sis
ters residing there. To a representative
of the New Mexican Mr.. Miera stated
that the financial condition of the vi
ty of Bernalillo was steadily improving
and that at the meeting of the board of
commissioners on Monday last the
county paid all the obligations dollar
for dollar and that such had been the
case for some time; that the county
expenses are being kept down by the
county commissioners as low as posi-
BILE and every effort is being made for
Just. honest assessment and energetic
collection of taxes. He thought that
the county would be able to pay cash
for all its expenses right along. He is
nov serving his fourth year as chair
man of the board and his term does not
expire until January 1, 1905.
Mr.. Miera speaks in very high terms
of Judge Baker and says that it is be-
ing demonstrated that the judge is a
learned and able jurist, hard working
fair and impartial. The people of the
district become more satisfied with the
judges official action the better they
know him and the more business they
do in his court. Personally, the Judge
is a very courteous and agreeable gen.
tleman and makes friends rapidly.
Mr.. Miera Is one of the largest tax
payers and property owners of the
county. He is a sheep raiser, owning
many of the fieecy animals, conducts a
sawmill and a grist mill in the Naci-
miento mountains, and in the western
part Of the county owns several stores
at which general trading Is done and
from which he supplies his many en-
ployees with food, clothing and the
necessities and luxuries of life. Politi-
cally, Mr.. Miera is a power in the
county. Although quite a young man,
he is certainly one of the leading men
and citizens of his section. His home
is in Cuba, about 100 miles from the
town of Albuquerque, and he repre-
sents the first district of the county
on the board of county commissioners.
The range in western Bernalillo
county is fair, and while there is not
as much water as he should like to see,
still he is of the opinion that the com
ing lambing and shearing season will
be good and that the losses of young
lambs Will be small. He goes from
here to grants OF the Santa Fe Pacific
railway INT will be busy for the next
six weeks experimenting the lambing
and shearing of his sheep herds. He
is active, energetic, and full of life and
attends to many of the details of his
business in person and that is likely
n reason for the success he is achiev
ing.

other places equally distant. The lake
is somewhat round in shape, and per-
haps a quarter of a mile in diameter.
The water, which attains a depth OF
some three feet or more in places, is a
supersaturated solution of solium
chloride.
On the surface of the lake float thin
particles or scales of salt, and from
the top of the basin, the bottom COW
cred with snow. At the bottom OF the
lake is a thick deposit of pure crystal
line salt, the cubical crystals being
very large and well preserved. The salt
is secured by driving well out into the
lake and loading the wagon from the
rich deposits on the lake bottom.

Notes of a Geological Reconnaissance
in Valencia County. N. M.

Notes OF a Geological Reconnaissance
in Valencia County, N. M.
in the February number of the Amer
lean Geologist occurs a long article on
the geological features of eastern Val
encia county, by Douglas w. Johnson,
formerly a student at the University
o New Mexico. Following are extracts
from the article:
Southeast of Albuquerque, N. M, and
east OF the Manzano mountains lies a
region of low plains bounded on the
west by the wooded foothills of the
Manzanos, and on the east by a low
and barren ridge terminating at the
north in the hills of Pedernal and at
the south In the Animas hills. The alb
rupt exposure of the Jemanez mesa
bounds this broad valley on the south,
while on the north the plains continue
almost unbroken to the San Pedro and
Ortiz mountains and the rough country
east of these groups. The whole south
ern portion of this valley is comprised
in what is known as the Antonio San
doval grant" and is especially noted
for the salt and alkali basins which
occupy its central portion.
The low ridge referred to as mark
ing the eastern limit of the southern
portion of this valley is not a well de-
fined boundary line, but merely q gen.
tie rise above the general level of the
valley, east of which the plains stretch
unbroken by any prominent landmark
to the horizon. In two localities on
these plains east of the dividing ridge
are found basins more or less alkaline
and saline; the first near the Mexican
village of Pinos Wells. southeast of the
Animas hills some twelve OF fifteen
miles; the second northeast of the vii
lage about fifteen miles. During the
summer these different basins were
visited by the writer in company with
Harry n. Herrick, in the interest OF
the university geological survey.
The geological conditions are ex
tremely simple. There is a constant
dip to the east, or possibly a little
south of east. quite marked along the
western border of the valley, but be-
coming less noticeable as one passes
further east and away from the axis
of the carboniferous uplift. which pro
duced the Sandia, ManZano and more
southern ranges, until ii is almost II
not quite imperceptible at the expos
ures about the most eastern of the sa'
line basins. A few miles northwest OF
Berrendo springs there are several i'm,
perfect exposures alternating lime and
one of the low rises and looked down
into the basin, with it's level floor GOV
cred with snow, while saljstretchine
far away to the south, did we realize
that we were in the vicinity of the
lakes. The lake bottom is usually
from some 80 TO so feet below plair
level. or from so TO 100 feet below the
TOP of the surrounding ridge.
AS we journeyed further southwark
we passed beyond the limits of the
territory affected by the storms, and
reached the ~so-called Salinas. This /!
evidently the great salt lake of the
whole basin. and furnishes the salt fol
the ranches within the radius OF lO'
miles or more. The almost pure pro
duct is hauled in wagon loads to Albu
querque, Santa Fe, White Oaks ant
