RECENT Geographic news from
Washington conveys the gratifying
information that the town of FL PasO,
Texas. may be in New Mexico. FL
Paso has but little in common with
Texas. rs it's business is almost alto
gether with New Mexico, Arizona and
Mexico. It's loss to Texas would
amount to but little while its gain to
New Mexico would be of the greatest
Importance The officials in the gen
cral land Office have been looking over
the records bearing on the Texas
boundary question, which, by the way,
has never been definitely settled, aud
have reached the conclusion that a
perfect survey of the line from new
Tooth meriCian at the intersection
with Red river around the northern
FL Paso. will show that Texas now
has in her immense borders cOnsid-
cradle area to which she is not en-
titled. This area amounts in the ag-
grcgate to something like 500 square
miles, which is said To belong to Okla
hOma and New Mexico. The land in
question is Il strip three miles wide
lying on the extreme northern boun
Diary of the state, south of Beaver
county, Oklahoma, amounting to about
40 square miles, and "a strip three
miles wide and 500 miles long on the
west side of the Panhandle and II
strip of $50 miles long on the northern
boundary of Loving and FL Paso
counties, Texas OF course Texas will
make a hard fight to retain every
inch at her ground, but she was
turned down once before, in No-Man's
Land, and lost many millions of acres
OF land. y special session of the Texas
legislature has been called to consider
the matter.

\ DISPATCH has recently been sent
out from Durango stating that the
promoters of the Clifton-D Durango rail
road have secured capital for the con-
struction of a standard guage railroad
from Durango to the Southern Pacific
system. and that construction will
BEGIN this year. The object Of build
ing such road is H. secure the coal
markets OF the copper camps III Ar
IONA which are consuming annually
ton Crossing a country 100 miles IN
extent, north and south, the proposed
road will pass through the coal fields
Of New Mexico in san Juan, Rio Ar
rita and Bernallllo counties, and viii
bring into better touch with the bal
anCe of the world some excellent agrl-
cultural sections on either side of :he
san Juan river. The road has been
twice surveye d, and Will enter Clifton
by the San Francis co river. The road
has not been surveyed further than
Clifton and will probably make this
place its terminus, reaching the other
copper camps of Arizona aud sonora
via the a. ~ y. NJ, FL Paso IL South
western and southern Pacific systems.
1t is likely that the laqui River rail
road will extend from C0chise station,
its starting point on the Southern
Pacific. to Clifton. The company has
announced its intention to this effect
and is now building from Cochise
south to connect at NacO with the
Cananea line which it has absorb

that the Chicago-Rock Islands branch
line from AlamagOrdo will pass
