WATER USERS PROTEST AT
DIVERSION OF A RIVER

Santa Fe, N. M, June 29.-The Rio
Ho1do and Rio Bonito Water Users
associations have filed a protest VITA

S. Sullivan, against the Ell Paso and
Southwestern railway company diver
ing the Bonito river, a tributary of the
Holdo, from the eastern slope of the
from there to be piped IT'S miles to
furnish engine water to the railroad,
which at present eNpends half a mil
lion dollars a year in treating alkali
water for it's engines and engine re
pairs for damage caused by poor wa
ter.
AS the federal government has com
pleted a reservoir on the Hondo it
will intervene against the railroad Co.
to prevent the diversion of the Bonito
The railroad company intends to
spend over a million dollars to divert
the river and has bought most of the
water rights along it.
1t was the purpose of the railroad
company, with its new water supply,
to furnish every station along its line
with the same. This water is to he
taken from the south fork of the b.
nito river, well up in the mountains,
and piped to what is known as Wat
sons lake, on the divide, above Nogal
which will serve as a natural S
voir at the desired elevation. 1t is the
expectation that about all the points
desired can then be supplied with wa
ter by gravitation. To say litigation
and delay the company has arranged
for the purchase of about all the land
from the forks of the stream to Fort
Stanton, expending yer 100000 the
refor. The surveyors have been in
the field for over two weeks finding
levels and preparing for the pipe lay

Some ia the road is trying to an

Despite numerous mis6ortunes and the
competition Of the Kaiser's Cup race,
the Grand Prix mas maintained its
place as the worlds foremost motor
ing event, as was evidenced by the i'm
mense concourse of spectators from
to $4,000 received from entries, local
authorities in towns along the line
have donated over $4,000 toward the
race making it the costliets event ev-
er attempted by an automobile club.
The Dieppe course is triangular, the
angles being at Dieppe, Eu aad Lond-
inieTes. One side of the triangle, Eu
to Dieppe, is comparatively close to
the sea- From Dieppe to Londinieres
the ace passes through Everman.
The exact distance is e~ignty-four kilo
meters. Ten laps will be made bring
ers, or about 500 miles. The rules
for today's event differ radically from
those previously IN use.
Thirty-eight machines started in the
race, seventeen makes of cars and five
nations being represented. Lancia, a
hero of two Vanderbilt cup races, was
the first away. Walter Christie the
only American entra1t, was the twelf-
tn to start. Immediately in front of
Christie is LIE Blon, while back of him
follows Jenatzy, both having been Van
denbilt competitors.
Sisz. who won last years Grand
Prix with a Renault, is again a com
petitor and is most feared of all the
entrants. Edmund and Richez, botn
expert drivers, are entered by the
Renault concern, which evidently has
the best chance of winning the tro-
ply.
According to the revised rules, fuel
consumption during the race is limit
ed to sc gallons per 62.1 miles. There
is no weight limit or other restriction.
All work on competing machines must
be done by drivers and mechanics
riding with them.
Walter Christie, the sole defender
of the motoring honors of America,
expressed himself as confident of win
ming a good place in the contest of
speed that will be waged through the
day. His machine is a 100 ~horse-pow
er, with a four cylinder gasoline en-
CINE driving direct into the hubs of
the forward wheels. In general de-
sign it resembles Ia ear Christie
drove in the Vanderbilt Cup race
trials, although many improvements
have been made in details of construc
ton.

GONE FOREVER.

The American Press.
Ten years ago a farmer put his mi
tials on a dollar bill. The next day ne
went to the nearest town and spent
it with a merchant. Before the year
was out he got the dollar back. -Four
times in six ears the dollar came
back to him for produce n three
times he heard Of it in the pocket OF
mis- leigilbors-
The last time ne got it back -four
years ago. He sent it to a mail order
house. He never has seen that dol
lar bill since and never will. That
dollar bill will never pay IN more
school or road tax for him, will never
build or brighten any of the homes OF
the community. He sent it entirely
out of the circle of usefulness to him
self and his n~eiglbors.

The Railroad and the Festival.

From Artesia Advocate.
The unexpected change of schedule
for the n~orthbound passenger which
was announced on the opening day
of the festival has done more to irri-
tate the people up and down the Val
ley than anything that occurred in a
long time. The change OF time for the
soutnbound local was made with lit
tie more warning and disappointed

visitors.

standard time.
This -necessitated early rising on
the part of the people of Carlsbad
who wished to travel northward, and
folks there who were about to leave
had to hustle to get to the train il
time and could not be expected to
hover around the depot al hour before
train time. Hence when the train left
everybody was left. People were also
left at Dayton and Lakewood. Even
the postmssters along the route were
not warned until after the train mad
left Carlsbad. The roads action in
regard to the local from the north
was very similar. Day before the fes-
tival information "a received that
the local would leave Roswell two
hours before schedule time. 1t was too
late to effectively advertise the change
up the line. More than two hundred
Roswellites who had prepared to at
tend the barbecue were disappointed.
Everybody was also left at Orchard

INSPECTOR MAKES GOOD HAUL.

The Mexican inspector made a good
haul yesterday in the Mexican Central
station when they confiscated SNUG
gled goods to the value of about $50
from three women, a mother and two
daughters. The goods consisted of
laces, silks and wearing apparel.
The three women whose names
could not be learned, came to Juarez
on the Central yesterday morning from
Ell Paso. Apparently they mad no
goods with them, as they carried no
thing but a grip and it contained no
dutiable articles. The quick y of
the inspector, however, noticed that
the three were unusually large in dia-
meter at places n ordered an in
spection. They were taken into the
inspection booth and the lady inspec-
tor was sent to investigate.
When she came out twenty minutes
later she brought with her enough dry
goods and millinery to fill a merchan-
disc counter. In the lot were silks
and laces, ha~ndkerchiefs, underwear,
waists and even socks. The women
were crying.
The materials were found wrapped
AROUND the waists, padded over the
shoulders and wrapped and tied even
about the limbs of the women. Some
of the smaller articles, such as hand
kerchiefs and socks were pinned to
the inside of their dresses.
The goods were turned over to the
government storage room and the wo-
men were more comfortably clad for
a 100 degree temperature.-E Paso

Fred Vandegrift, the great political
descriptive and advertising writer,
who is engaged in a study of South
western conditions generally, and who
has written some of the most con
vincing literature ever issued by the
Santa Fe Railway, said to the Record
editor last night: 1T is farming by
irrigation that will make New Mexi-
co a great state. Colorado is a great
mining state, but within the past few
years the figures show that her farm
products far exceed in value the out
put of all her mines. 1t was irriga-
ton that revealed riches on the sur
face of the valleys and plains great
er than all the coal, iron, gold and
silver in the mountains. Colorado now
manufactures more beet sugar than
all the balance of the United States.
New Mexico has more land, better
soil, and more available water for ir-
rigation than Colorado. Then she has
a better climate. Her mining Te-
sources, too, are undoubtedly rich
but / repeat that agriculture is the
state-maker, the home-maker, the
foundation of prosperity and good
government"
