COMING TOWARDS new MEXICO.
The Blackwell, Enid and Southwestern Railway Will Cut
Through Southeastern New Mexico.

A dispatch from Austin, Texas. in
the st. Louis Globe-D Democrat says:
It was stated here tcdcy BY Thomas
J. Holburn of Lubbock county, that a
party of engineers are at work in that
county running a survey for a pro-
posed extension Of the Blackwell, Enid
and Southwestern railroad toward Ell
Paso. This road was recently acquir-
ed by the st. Louis and San Francisco
interests and Is rapidly being extended
to Vernon, Tex, where connection with
the Fort Worth and Denver railroad Is
made. Mr.. Holburn says the engineer
in charge Of the surveying corps, now
running the route for the road through
his ranch in Lubbock county, informed
him that it is proposed to extend the
Blackwell, Enid and Southwestern
road to Ell Paso as fast as the con-
struction work can be carried on.
Lubbock is about $50 miles southwest
of Vernon. The preliminary survey
for the extension has already been
completed from Vernon to that place.
The route of the extension will be
through the southeastern corner of
New Mexico, leaving the Texas line
at some point in Yoakum county. The
distance between Vernon and Ell Paso
by the proposed route is about 450
miles.

To the Editor of New Mexican

| To the Editor of New Mexican:
We are on the eve of the nomina-
tions for the municipal offices for the
ensuing year. These nominations are
of more interest and importance to us
as city than il they Were those of the
president of the United States. Who
will be the men who will control the
ing year? Will they be men who will
see to it that every dollar expended
will be used to the greatest advantage
in promoting the interests of our city,
or will they be men who will squander
the money and sink our city deeper in
to debt?
Who are to be the men who will
control our educational work for the
next term? Will they be men of edu-
cation, culture, character and ability,
men who are interested in the school
for the sake Of the schools, and who
Will give their valuable time and SER
vices to the end that they may ad-
vance the interests of every child in
this municipality?
We have such nen, many of them,
who will be a credit to our town as it's
officers, and we ask that they be
sought out and be requested to give
their services to the city for the COM
ing year.
The entire complexion Of the school
board was changed last year. Let
such men be nominated and elected
this year and the time is not far dis
tant when Santa Fe will not only be
proud of her school trustees, but Of
her schools as we'll. Taxpayer.

TUSAYAN IS SUGGESTED.
A Denver Man Would Like TO Inflct Foreign Sounding
Name Upon New Mexico

Lewis p. Abel writes as follows in
the Denver Republican in regard to a
change of name for New Mexico when
the territory is admitted to statehood:
| 1T is also of prime importance that
the name New Mexico should be dis
continued, to avoid confusion with Old
Mexico, and for the further reason
that the. word New in this case is
certainly a misnomer, for it Is we'll
known fact that citizens of this COM
ing commonwealth always have and
always will point with pardonable
pride to the relics and traditions of the
earliest habitation of mankind as yet
discovered upon this continent. The
name Lincoln has been suggested,
and the bill Is so framed as to allow
the adoption of this name if the peo-
| pie of New Mexico so desire. Much as
| the name of Lincoln is revered in this
country and throughout the civilized
world, 1t is to be hoped that the blum
der of naming the present state Of
Washington will not be repeated In re-
naming New Mexico, and that we may
forever be spared the annoyance of al
ways being required to add to Lin
coin such qualifying tail words as
state or city in order to make our
selves understood. Even at this late
day probably nine people out of ten
still speak Of Washington Territory
ITO escape all this confusion and to
give the state a name worthy as we'll
of her future prominence as star Of
prime magnitude, as Of her ancient
civilization and associations, and also
in commemoration of the mighty en-
pire Of which she formed a part let
'Tusayan, the oil Spanish name of
the province out of which the territory
has in part If not wholly emerged, be
henceforth the name Of old New Mex
ico"
