the outside neighbors do not know of
the wonderful advantages you have,
much less the outside world. We do
not ask for one cent donation. True
we need money to carry on the work,
but the contributions must come vol
UNFAIRLY. We came here to get a de-
s~criptive article of Roswell and the
Pecos Valley. and we will give the
write-up in the Miner and M%anufactu-
rer If we do receive one cent.
I'm conclusion l will say that Mr..
Edwards is here and he will tell you
Of his publication. 1 will also say
that the meeting of the National IT.
rigation Congress at Ell Paso will be
of great benefit to Roswell. OF course.
Roswell is not large enough to enter
tain the Irrigation Congress at pres
ent, and it will task FL Paso to en-
~tertain the guests. but the Congress
will benefit Roswell. as excursions
will be run from Ell Paso to the Pc
cos Valley. and the numerous home
seekers will investigate this locality
with a view to locating in the Pecos
Valley"
At this point Chairman Reed intro
duced Editor H. l.. Edwards of the
Miner and Manufacturer. Mr.. Ed
wards explained the character of his
publication, and said in part: 1.-The
Miner and Manufactures is a metro
politan publication and is devoted to
industrial affairs We intend to get
out an issue with a descriptive arti-
Gle on the Pecos Valley and Roswell
for the Southwestern Irrigation Asso-
citation and we will issue fifteen thou
sand copies of the paper. The article
will not be fiowery and will give the
plain facts as they exist in the Pecos
Valley and this city. For the extra
edition of the paper we will only
charge for the actual cost of the pa
per and printing. The extra number
of the magazine will be about eight
hundred pounds of paper, which will
cost Z cents per pound, or about $50.
The composition will be about SIS.
There will be ninty thousand impress
sions and this will cost about $50
The folding and stapling will be a
considerable item and it will take one
man fifteen days to address the pa
| pers. The paper will be distributed
g~ratuitously and as many copies as
can be used to advantage will be sent
to this city.
This is my first trip to the Pecos
Valley and Roswell. and l am sur
prised at the wonderful advantages.
/ have the reputation of being moder
ately truthful and if l should tell of
the wonderful advantages and the
progress here without any exaggera-
ton | would be accused of lying"
