FREIGHT BUSINESS.

T. Il. Purdy, local station agent for
the Santa Fe, states that while he
has not been here long enough to
perfectly familiarize himself with the
entire amount of business done dur
the past year, in actual figures, he
a say positively that the increase
in freight business to and from this
point has been much heavier during
the year 1905 than it has been for the
year 1904. A larger force of men are
now employed at the local freight de.
pot than ever before in the history
of this transfer point. Hundreds OF
cars of freight are handled annually,
through the local freight house, and.
altogether the freight business of the
Santa Fe at this place is enjoying
a season of prosperity much greater
than ever before in it's history.
l.. F. Mats is the chief clerk; II. ].
Fouts and Arthur Sherer are the eff
hcient ticket agents.
The passenger traffic through Albu.
qnerque, and to and from the city, has
also been exceedingly heavier than II
was in 1904. In addition, a Pullman
office has been established in this
city, with p. II. Rhodes as the local
manager in charge.

SYNOPSIS OF POSIOfFlCE AFFAIRS

Not only is albuquerque the chief
division point of the Santa Fe sys-
TEN, west of Topeka, Kan, but It is
also the chief mechanical point for
the entire western coast lines of this
road. Here are maintained the lar
gest shops between Kansas City and
Los Angeles, giving employment to
over 700 men and in addition to this,
the yards, local freight offices and
other offices swell the number of men
employed by the road at this point to
over 500, the pay roll monthly being
about $4,000.
In the year 1904, there was erected
in this city for that great captain of
hotel industry, Fred Harvey, one of
the finest hotel and depot buildings
combined, that the Santa Fe has on
its entire system. Costing over $125,-
900, built on the Mission plan, of rub
BILE concrete over a wire frame, 1t Is
at once one of the most odd. beau
tiful, and at the same time substan-
tial depot buildings, to be found in
the great west. The hotel, under the
local management of Col. w. H.
Cheatham, has n hundred rooms,
forty of which are equipped with
baths. The dining room has a floor
space of 70xS0 feet, and seats $50
people. In addition to this is a finely
equipped lunch counter. directly back
Of the dining room. Back of the lunch
counter comes the Indian building,
stored with all kinds of Indian and
Mexican %curios, some of them worth
fabulous sums, owing to their very
great age, and prehistoric value. The
two waiting rooms ticket office
United States mail room and bag
gage room, follow after the Indian
building, all being under one roof
Apart from the main depot building
is the Wells-Fargo Express company's
building at the southern ex
tremity of the main building. This is
built of the same material and on the
same architectural style as the depot
building, as is also the Santa Fe Of
fices and freight office, which is 10
Gated at the southwestern corner OF
the depot grounds.

T. e. McDonough, of Rociada, a
Miguel county, has been appointed as
special immigration agent of the
Santa Fe railway system, TO work in
Tennessee. with a view to inducing
farmers in that state TO immigrate
to New Mexico and settle in suitable
sections.
He will make a special effort to
bring settlers to Torrance, and to
Roosevelt counties. He will be sup
piled with literature descriptive OF
the territory and its resources, by
the bureau of immigration. This he
will distribute in Tennessee where it
will do the most good.
He Is ~sanguine that he will be able
10 do good work and induce a num-
Der of Tennessee farmers and stock

had members of the Farmers Al
lance with US that had not been to
such meetings in a long time past.
We are glad to see farmers take SO
much interest in our county meet
ings. We should endeavor to make
all our county Alliance meetings
profitable and entertaining to the
public. We notice that three subs
in this county are taking an inter
est in the "Aid Society,"" viz, God
win, Flea Hill and Wade subs. They
paid $4,000 to Mrs. Virginia @. Ne
Laurin, widow of John A.. McLaurin,
who was a member of Flea Hill sub
at his death, November 10, 1904. We
trust every member of our Order
will endeavor to attend all the meet
ings of their subs in the future. If
they had attended their sub meet
ings, [ am under the impression they
could have sold their cotton to bet

would have been better posted on the
