THE NEW LINE or RAIL RoAp.

There ii a good deal OF talk on the
streets and among the business houses
about the new road, projected by
Messrs. Phelps-Dodgo Co, from the
Dawson coal fields TO q connection
with the III paso and Northwestern
road, There Is a feeling OF confidence
In the building Of the road which
Indicates both the faith OF our people
In the merits Of the road Itself and
also the ability OF the people behind
IL To carry forward promptly any pro.
position they undertake.
The confidence Las Vegas has In
the feasibility OF this connection was
shown by the manne In which they
came TO the support Of what was prac.
tically the same idea In 1892. II Is
useless at this time to discuss the
why's and whorefores as TO why that
well conceived idea was moi put into
actual operation. Time will demon.
strate the value OF such a line. For
Geography admits II, topography ia
vors 1t and the business Of the country
demands It,"

THE SCENIC HIGHWAY.

The question OF the location OF the
Scenic Highway. which was assuming
formidable proportions as a basis for
dissention and ~ill-feeling In this com.
munity, gives promise Of an amicable
and satisfactory adjustment. The
views expressed In The Optic last
evening by Superintendent Bursum
were entirely fair and reasonable and
the advice rendered the people by
Governor Otero was eminently sound.
The more roads the better for Las
Vegas and no sane person could doubt
that both the well-traveled roads lead
ing from the old and new towns TO the
Hot Springs will be improved and
made as tempting TO the public as IL
possible. Certain II Is that the road
on the west side which Is AS old as
the hills themselves, and which now
connects the beautiful Galllnas park
with Las Vegas will always BIO a ia.
yorite highway and should be placed
and kept In the best possible condition.
III most pressing need just now Is
for iii. table bridge connecting 1t
wit lot Springs and ways and
mel ..ould be devised for It's con-
stru.. ON at the earliest possible time.
II the county commissioners will
confine themselves to this proposition
which Is properly within their jurisdic-
ton and leave the rest to the build
ers OF the Scenic Road, everybody will
be happy. In this connection we might
add that there are other county roads
over which the commissioners have
entire control. to which they might
probably devote a little attention.
The Scenic Highway Is a splendid
thing for Las vegas-it Ii q thing o.
beauty and should be, q Joy forever
But rather than that it might becom,
q basis for strife and illfeeling be
tween the two communities Of La
Vegas just now when harmony he'll

II had never been projected. An
rather than permit Its construction a
this immediate end to further interfer
with the peace and prosperity OF La

A FEW FOUL TIPS.

"The Barons returned last night from Montgomery after a trip to Atlanta and Mont Somery. Luck was the main cause of the Barons losing two of the games out of the five lost, and nothing but the worst of luck could have caused the Barons to fall to win the tie game. Eight were played.
 Carlos Smith, a long fellow with good looking Baseball appearance, ar rived with the team last night, vice Murdock, who has departed to Charles ton in the South Atlantic.
 Some idea of the toughness of luck can be obtained from the accounts Of yesterday's game. With three men on bases Vaughan hit liner which look ed good for two bags and would have cleaned the bases. Shieback went into the air and pulled it down by the mer- est accident and good luck. With two men on bases Hafford hit hot one down third base line. good for cou- pie of bases and Brouthers slapped It down with one hand. Pure luck. It prevented two runs being made.
 Manager Vaughan said last night:
 " We played some fine ball and some bad ball. We had bad luck in several games. and we secured the worst end of the umpiring all around. Joe Burk threw 1t into us whenever he got a chance in Atlanta, and Bassett
