MAY EXTEND
 TO HUACHUCAS
FL PAso AND SOUTHWESTERN MAKING MOVE OF THAT KIND
Right of Way Agent Was in Naco
 Monday Looking up Right of Way


 The extension of the Fl Paso and from Forest Siding to Naco and beyond, was given more standing last Monday by the presence ot George Hardiker, right of way agent for the company, at Naco on important business.
 Hardiker called upon number of property owners along Second street in Naco for the purpose of arranging with them for right of way for the road along that street. It is under stood that he met with sufficient en- couragment to insuire the road taking that course while entering Mexico.
 Several months ago the company had a party of surveyors map out a route from Forest Siding o Naco. The object of a cut of of this kind is to avoid the heavy grade between Doug las and Naco by way of Don Luis and Naco Junction.
 When the survey was made it was found that the new line would result ! in a big saving both in distance and heavy pulls. The per cent of incline was found to be even less than had been expected. The building of the roadbed will mean but little expense as the proposed route is over level territory.
 Last night Frank Abrams, manager of the Naco hotel, was called up over the telephone. and had the following to say about the construction of this road:
 [. q understand from good authority that the road will be built in few months. Information has reached me that indicates an inclination on the part of the company to bull the road to Naco, and not stop there. 4 'I am almost willing to say that the
 company is planning an extention oi the road west of this city to the Hua
 chuca mountains. which are becoming known as a rich mineral section oi
 this county. While no one is authority
 has made any statement of this kind things look that way to me" ? It Is certain that the Fl Paso and Southwestern company has made sev i. eral moves that might be interpreted
 to mean that they are planning some
 sort of an extension from Naco.

POST OFFICES
 AT TWO PLACES
GLANCE PETITION HAS BEEN FOR.
 WARDED TO WASHINGTON
Postmaster MccaSe Expects Agent
 Here in Short Time to Look Into

Postmaster McCabe stated yester- day afternoon that tine petition for postofice at Copper Glance went along with the one sent to Washington ask ing for a postofice at Don Luis. They will reach the postoffice department together. and probably be considered at the same time.
 q expect an agent of the department here before long to look into the pos tai needs of Don Luis and Glance" said Postmaster McCabe yegte.tiay. The department will make a thor ough investigation of the matter be fore deciding one way or another.
 ITO establish postoffices at these two places vii be help to the office in Bisbee. It will lessen our work here to some degree, and take a great deal of OUT hands that Is really un- necessary. The mail for these two places is now punched, and has to wait in the office until it is called for by some persons from there" Postmaster McCabe states that the needs of Glance and Don Luis are such that they are justified in asking for offices there. They will have suffi- cient mail matter to warrant the gov ernment giving them fourth-class off ces.
 | s. W. Clawson, who is interested in the Glance property, says that 1t will be a great convenience the mining ocmapny, as we'll as the large number of men employed in that section to have a postofice. Some of them do not get their mail for several days, whereas they would get 1t on time if there was a postmaster there.
 Mir. Beeh'er. who prepared the pc tition for the Don Luis office. is wait ing for an opportunity to show the agent of the postofiee department that his place is large enough in the matter of the amount of mail that would be handled to justify the government ir establishing postoffice there.
 Postmaster McCabe is lending the advocates of these two postofhces al the assistance possible, and expects tc see both of them be successful.
