The railroads are setting up a
long, dismal howl over the re-
duction in many states of the
passenger rate from three to
two cents, claiming there will be
a disastrous financial loss. The
western lines have determined to
fight it out in the courts. If the
railroads could operate in their
early history at three cents,
when the business they trans
acted was a mere trile to what
they do now, they can make big
money at the new rate easy
enough in the settled, developed
states. In New Mexico and Ari-
IONA the rate could be reduced
from four to three cents in all
fairness to the roads.

There would be about as much
reason in the people having the

their lawyers, without qlalifca-

as important that the man who

The Reclamation Of Arid Lands
in New Mexico.

The appropriation of 81, 900, 900
by Congress to commence work
on the Engle Dam of the Elephant
Butte project, firmly establishes
the destiny of the Mesilla Valley
as the lcvliest and most fertile
garden spot in all the Southwest
and Las Cruces as its metropolis,
with a population of fifty thous-
and in a few decades. The Ma
tional Reclamation Act was the
wisest piece Of legislation and
the most profitable investment
thar the nation has ever made.
About $40, 900, 600 has accumulat-
ed under this act without increas-
ing the tax burden of the nation
at all, for it is derived from the
proceeds of the public lands in the
public land states. Almost $40,-
100000 has been appropriated
for the reclamation of 1900, 900
acres of soil that otherwise would
be barren. This is five times as
much land as New Mexico had
under cultivation in the census
year of 1900, when the value of
its agricultural products alone
exceeded ten million dollars or
mere than the product of all its
mines and all of its ranges taken
together. These 1,300,000 acres
will support 100000 families in
comfort or a population of 800, =
600; more than are to be found
today in New Mexico, Arizona,
Colorado, Wyoming and Utah
taken together. In time every
spring, every well, every arroyo,
every underground reservoir
and stream will receive the at
tention of the Reclamation Ser
vice and in that day New Mexi.
