TO. FOLLOW F oLD GRADE.
Course to Be Pursued BY the New
Mexico and Southwestern
Railway.

A. B. Renehan, Esq, who has just
returned from Rio Arriba County
states that the grade of the line of the
New Mexico & Southwestern Railway,
from the timber country around Ell
Bado, has been completed within five
miles OF Lumberton, its northern ter.
minus. The engineer corps in charge
has been directed to extend.its opera
tions southwark toward Chamita, fol-
lowing the so.called old grade, which
was built many years ago. This will
bring the line down by Gallina, Coyo-
tie, Abiquiu and sthe Chama River set
Elements southwark.
1t is rumored that this is plan to
avoid the high hill at Embudo, and to
give an almost direct line from Duran
go, but without any purpose to aban-
don the present line from Antonito to
Chamita, which serves to supply the
Taos County points.

The ordinance will be fully enforced,

SENATOR QUAY HAS
new STATEHOOD PLAN
Statesman From Pennsylvania
Would Consolidate New Mex
leo and Arizona.

A special from Washington says:
United States Senator Matthew
Stanley Quay, of Pennsylvania, is con-
vinced that the country is not ready
for the admission of four territories
with eight votes in the United States
senate, and is preparing compromise.
1t will provide for the admission of
Arizona and New Mexico as one state
and Oklahoma and Indian Territory as
another.
The first combination would be Re-
publican and the second doubtful. If
the Indian Territory and Oklahoma are
admitted as one state, he desires, it is
said that it shall be stipulated and
agreed that one of the United States
senators shall be a full blooded Indian
and that one the Indian chief Quannah
Parker. Senator Quay has gone to the
Indian Territory to promote the plan.
