ence the intention constituted the
crime. The committee was so well sat
isied with the job that no further busi-
ness was attempted until 1881. The
good citizens Of Deming proper had
been, for quite q while, incensed at the
efforts of lot of adventurous to jump
the property in the park claimed by the
railroad companies. This attempt gave
the town its first set back in fact, ii
looked for a time as thouyl this was a
Knockout blow to our prosperity. /
was decided to oust the park jump
ers, and the executive committee got
together one evening to clean out the
park or have hot time. Some one on
the committee suggested that a confer
ence be had with Judge Bristol as to
the proposed proceeding and this wa
reluctantly agreed to. The judge lis
tened to the arguments of his visitors
and took a strictly legal view Of Il g
matter While admitting the necessi-
ty Of doing something to avert the ca
amity of incuring the displeasure of
the railroads, the proposed proceeding
was an extraordinary remedy not war
ranted by common law or thestatute and
Unfair in chancery, as the chances
were all against the accused. The
Judge did not say just this, bat did ID
wise that only legal measures bc, followed
and believed that in time the court
would settle the matter to the satisfac-
tion of our people and the railroads.
So the matter was dropped. The com
mittee disbanded and never reconvened.

nit of his remaining in idleness, any
length of time, and once more he
started into his CHOSEN occupation as
editor and publisher of the Deming
Tribune. At that time there We're two
other papers in the town, but it was
only matter Of Is months until the
Tribune absorbed the Democrat and
shortly afterward the Headlight was
bought by Mr.. Pennington and the two
consolidated under the name of the
Headlight, which he continued to pub
lish until 1889, at which time he sold
out and went to California for a visit,
remaining nearly year. On his re-
turn from California he was elected
secretary Of Deming Land & Water
Co., which position he held for some
years after which he was employed as
book keeper for the Lindauer Mercan-
tile Co., until, at the time Luna coun-
ty was formed, he was appointed by
Governor 0tero to the office:of assessor
for the new county and in January
last was elected on the republican
ticket, Justice of the Peace for the
town of Deming, which honorable po-
sition he now holds.

Business and Biographical Sxetches'

Closely allied with the growth Of the
county is the name of j. A. Mahoney,
who came to Deming in May 1882 and
three years later went into the grocery
business at the corner of Gold Avenue
and Spruce streets, the sight of his
present large establishment, Fourteen
years ago sold out his grocery business
and opened up hardware store and a
short time afterwards stock of furni-
ture was added. These two depart
ments of his business increased steadily
as the town grew in size until now his
place occupies the whole of the great
block and during the past year a
fine brick building was constructed in
the rear of the main building and fitted
up into an eleganc set of Undertaking
parlors entirely seperate from the main
store. In addition to these buildings
Mr.. Mahoney has erected block OF
brick store buildings on the opposite
side of Gold Avenue, and brick office
building on Spruce Street which is just
being finished and will be one of the
neatest and most comfortable in the
town and is beginning the construction
of a large warehouse to meet the de-
mands of his constantly growing trade
which now comprises heavy and light
hardware, pumps, all classes of sheet
iron work, and general furniture and
house furnishing supplies, Some years
ago Mr. Mahoney built a beautiful sub
urban residence which is surrounded by
fine grounds and shade trees and is one
Of the prettiest in this region. but it be-
ing out some distance from town he
felt that it was too far away from hi:
business, so it was sold to Mr.. AL Wat
kins some months ago and now Mr.. Ma
honey has plans for a new home where
1t will be more convenient to the
business part of town.
Edward Pennington was born in New
York City, where he lived until sever

wBs paralizing.. But western town
builders don't paralize for long, and
that night, just four weeks from the
birth of their town, they
Folded their tents like the Arabs,
And as silently stole away,
and by night of the following day,
about November Is, 1881, a city Of can
vas sprang into existence along the line
of the S. P. right of way, with its busi-
ness center about where now stands
the Office Of the FL Paso and Southwest
ern railway, and resembling in many
particulars as to architecture and lead
ing citizens the ex-town of New Chi
cago, b A new town was born and it
was christened Deming, in honor of
the family Of one of the promoters of
the great S. p. system. True, the
town of Deming proper was nearly a
quarter section south Of this point, but
western towns like to be in the smoke
of the locomotives; the A. T. e. S. F..
had not yet made the junction, and it
was yet case of "quien sabe" where
1t would make it, so the park land was
a safe ground for the time being.
Within very short time after the
S. P. had bui!- to and passed beyond this
point the A. T a. S. f. made the june
ton, and although its surveyors and
graders kept right on across the S. p.
tracks and into the west, all doubt as
to where the big town was to be was
set to rest. Soon an army of mechanics
was busy erecting round houses, station
houses, railway tenements, putting
down the big wells; switching yards
three miles long were laid out; soon the
handsome and commodious depot hotel
was in course of construction then
the finest railroad building between
Kansas City and San Francisco Dem
irg, the division point for both roads
lay-over station for all Pullman em-
ployes, train crews and express mes
sengers; everything indicated that here
the railroads would make the great
town Of the southwest, and it was
surely good to be here.
At the advent of the town the popu-
lation was of the usual well assorted
kind good, bad and not Indifferent -
for the Indifferent don't come until the
town is established. The men who start
town in the west are always one kind
or the other-good or bad. Here were

Introduction.

INTRODUCTION.
The increased interest which is being
exhibited by eastern people in thesouth
west and the numerous inquiries that
are constantly be ng received throughout
our territory as to the inducements
offered to settlers by this region we are
fully convinced that it will be Of great
benefit to our community to have a
thorough and accurate description of
our county written up and illustrated at
this time so that 1t can be distributed
through the east where these inquiries
originate.
1t is our intention to have these
articles written by people who are
thoroughly posted on the various sub
jects and have them give the exact con-
condition as they see them without ex-
aggeration so that should any one be
led by them to come here and investi-
gate they would find conditions as re-
presented and not be disappointed.
1t is with this object in view, and
for the sole purpose of bringing the ad-
vantages of Luna county before the
people who are looking for location
that we have undertaken this work.
History Of County by Edw. Pennington
In the early IA / of 1881, eager eyes
were anxiously turned toward southern
New Mexico watching the progress of
railroad building and guessing where
would be the junction of the two great
trans-continental railways which were
building toward the Golden Gate Of the
Pacific. In October Of that year some
one got a private tip and shared
the scoop with few of the select. The
Southern Pacific buimors reached a
point Just east of the Mimbres river
three miles west of the present site of
Deming, made short halt for some
reason; the knowing ones took the hint,
and in day or two, or three at most,
the roaring western town of New Chi
cago" was a reality, with realty soar
ing skyward, though no title worth
mentioning was shown in the abstract.
Title is a consideration that troubles
boom town b iilders but little, a d it did
not these. Title was an after consider
alton to be tackled by the lawyers and
the future. The boomers ran their
street lines, set their lot stakes and
had Colt and Winchester documents to
hold the stakes in place. A city of
tents sprang up like magic, and nearly
every "house" had for a door plate
Lodging, Beds" "Dance Hall
Club Room," Saloon" principally
the latter. Business was booming and
the citizens Of New Chicago were sure
lit is good to be here. "
But change came over the spirit OF
their dreams. The A. 7. 4 S. F.
railway had passed the east point Of the
Cooks Peaks mountains and taken q
dip to the west that looked suspicious,
when, by all accounts it should have
kept on directly south to the New Chi
cago. A delegation of the leading citi
zens went little west to investigate
and only three miles west t theirprom
ising little town with the glorious fu
ture found men with transits and levels
sticks like BARRIERS poles and little
flags net made for guidons, very busy
A town was being laid out and they

DIR. S. D. Swope is having rock haul
ed for the foundation of fine brick
building at the corner os Gold avenue,
fronting on the railway. The building
will have thirteen rooms and is being
built with a special view to use either
as a lodging house or, in case he should
find that there is a demand for it hos
pital and sanitarium. This building
will be an ornament to our town and is
only one of many which are now in
process of construction or planned for
the near future in our town.

suffering intensely, he refused to lie

DAILY NEws-DEMoCRAT.
When Doctors Dis agree.

The inevitable controversy over the
administered to the pope in his last
illness, brings forcibly to mind the
fact that few men of Importance have
died in recent years, without a similaJ
controversy having followed their de-
mise. In such cases the desire to pro-
vide the best skill and advice that ii
is possible to procure is very natural,
but the wisdom Of calling too num-
erous body of medical advisers is opes
to question. Most every man of wealth
and station has family physician of
skill and reputation who has beeu
familiar with his physical peculiarities
for years, and who is in better position
ordinarily, to diagnose his illness than
anyone else. In the pope's case, Do.
Lapponi was undoubtedly in the posi-
tion to known the patients peculiar
weakness, a circumstance which at
least raises presumption in favor of
his competency and of the correctness
of his treatment.
When too many doctors are sum.
moned to the bedside of the sick it is
naturally to be expected that there will,
be some difference of opinion. The
Judgment of mankind is fallibe, and
not all physicians hold the same ideas
of no nh foto
who sees his patient for the first tint
professionally may easily and excus.
ably be misled by symptoms which
are perfectly clear to another who by
long experience is familiar with the
physical makeup of the man and IL
may be with the history of the very
disease itself. From disagreement
comes compromise, or perhaps yield
ing to the majority opinion. In such
cases it would seem doubtful If the
patient does so well as he would ID
yield himself unreservedly to the best
judgment of one competent man, and
that preferably, the man who by long
familiarity knows best his peculiar
weakness and needs. 1t by no means
follows that man should never change
his physician. In such matters results
furnish the supreme test as in other
branches of daily experience. But too
great variety or too numerous body
of medical advisers is at least Of
doubtful advantage. To fight a sue
cessful battle. whether it be against
an army or against disease, some oni
man should be given the supreme COM
mand.
The Stark County Democrat. [volume] (Canton, Ohio) 1833-1912, 1903-07-31

While the civil war was in progress
Artemus Ward announced mis- willing
ness to sacrifice all his wife's relatives
If necessary to put down the rebellion.
About the same degree of self-abnega-
tion is manifested by the Minneapolis
millers and eastern manufacturers in
the matter of Canadian reciprocity,
says the Iowa Register They are will
ing to sacrifice the interests of Amer
lean farmers by removing the rs cents
per bushel tarln on canadian wheat.
This would enable the millers to get
their wheat cheaply by importing the
Canadian product and bringing it into
competition with that grown in this
country At the same time they would
be enabled to extend the market for
their -four into Canada. The manufac-
turers in the east want reciprocity as
means of getting their goods free
into Canadian territory. 1t is a beauti-
ful scheme, but the farmers of the
United States will probably have some
thing to say about 1t before 1t is put
into effect.
