terprise contemplated by J. @. Elliott.
of Weed who has been here this week
The mill is practically built and the
track and connection with Roswell
will be established before long, accord
ing to the statement of the man be
hind the enterprise. If this mill and
its outlet are carried on along the
lines now contemplated by Mr.. Elliott
it means a big thing for Roswell, for
it will mean lumber at about half the
price it is now sold for in this city.
The high price of lumber is one of
the main things that are holding back
h town.
Mr.. Elliott was here this week dis
posing of the well-drilling machinery
he has been operating in the valley
for the past two years. He came here
from Los Angeles and has been in
the numbering business in California
a number of years and is a practical
man on these lines. He located at Ar
tesla two years ago and a made a
wide acquaintance in the well drill.
ing business in that part of the Val
ley.
To a Record reporter Mr.. Elliott
gave his plans. He said lie had about
completed a lumber mill that is To-
Gated in the Sacramento mountains,
seven miles west of Weed, 80 miles
west of Artesia and 100 miles south
west of Roswell. The mill is equipped
with a steam engine and will have
a capacity of 10000 feet of lumber per
day. He has a pond, Oh tank" as
it is called by lumber men, 100 by
so feet in size, in which to foat the
logs against the big saw. In this he
can loaf $4,000 feet of lumber, in the
log, and this will be a great advan-
tage in the work. Mr.. Elliott showed
the reporter photographs of his mill
and pond and also of the surrounding
country, which is very wild and we'll
supplied with pine. The mill will turn
out pine lumber for the most part.
The pictures showed the tank both be
fore and after being filed with water.
Mr.. Elliott already has 200, 900 feet
of lumber in logs at his mill and
about $4,000 feet of lumber cut.
The track to Roswell will be a sub
sta1tial one and will be made smooth

tine camp and thus Roswell and Ar
tesla can be reached BY wire. The
traction engine and the four steel
cars that 1t will pull will cost $4,000.
Each car will carry 1880 feet OF lum-
Der and the engine will make 8 miles
an hour with its load. The engine
will De of 10 horse power.
Until the traction engine is estab-
lisaed Mr.. Elliott intends to haul
his lumber to Roswell with teams. He
hopes to have some of his lumber
on the market before long.

The Helena correspondent of the

way Senator Clark's withdrawal from
the senatorial race narrowed up the
souls of the unterrified at Helena:
There were weeping, wailing and
swearing in this metropolitan political
center on Thursday when the an
nouncement of w. A. Clarks with
drawal from the senatorial contest
was made. Had Mount Helena sunk
into mother earth and become a pros
rect hole the surprise could not have
caused such CONSERVATION. On every
street corner little groups of Demo-
Gratis collected and mingled their tears
and lamentations. Had the saloons
doubled the price of Bourbon whisky
the party leaders could not have wept
more bitterly or "cursed" with more
feeling and volubility. The scene beg.
