A new INDUSTRY.

A new company has just been incor-

known as the Rock Island Plaster
Company, the purpose of the organiz-
alton being to exploit the immense de-
posits Of gypsum in New Mexico, as a
building material.
These deposits occur at several points
along the Rock Island line and in great
quantity at Ancho, a point near the
Jicarilla mountains in Lincoln county.
At that point plant will be establish
ed for the manufacture of stucco and
ply of gypsum is said to be practically
inexhaustible. The new company eX-
poets to be able to supply the products
named to southwestern markets at a
reduction of at least 40 per cent of the
present price, thus considerably cheap
ening the cost of building. Stucco can
be used for the entire construction of
buildings, as demonstrated by many
buildings in Albuquerque, as we'll as
for ordinary plastering. The Rock Is

Of cure" Since the construction camps

been started in the county and several
been satrted in the county and several
thousand men are employed in them, it
is thought that trouble may arise at
any time. A great deal of lawlessness
has characterized the railroad con-
structioH in the southwest, but the
sheriff of Dona Ana county has ap-
pointed special deputy sheriff whose
jurisdiction extends over these camps,
and who will be on the ground at all
times to stop anything out of the way
that starts. William Rynerson has
