RAILROAD MAY BE BALkED
 IN PLAN
Farmers of Bonito District Protest Against Idea of Di- verting Water for Use of Locomotives in New Mexico.

ALBUQUERQUE. July 5.-The plan of the Fl Paso and Southwest ern railroad to divert the waters of the Bonito river and pipe the stream one hundred and seventy-fiye miles through the White mountains of the southwestern New Mexico, to supply water to it's engines. one of the big gest engineering enterprises ever at tempted in New Mexico and inyolV- ing a first cost of more than mil lion dollars, may be stopped as re suit of the protests of the farmers along the Bonito river in Lincoln county against the diversion of the stream. For some time the Fl PasO & Southwestern has been quietly ac- Quiring water rights along the Bonito and not until many of these rights had been acquired was the railroads great plan made public. Then peti- ton for permission to divert the Wa ters Of the stream was filed with Ter ritorial Engineer Vernol l.. Sullivan. as required by law. and notice given to those interested that they could ap- pear to protest against the plan if approval was not given it. The ap- proyal of the territorial engineer is required before the work can proceed
 Saturday attorneys for the Hondo River Water Users association and Lincoln county farmers appeared in Santa Fe to protest against the rail roads action. H. Hudspeth, H. B Hamilton. of Lincoln county and T B. Catron of Santa Fe, represent the Eovag and w. 4. Hawkins appears for the railroad The hearing was had be fore the irrigation engineer Saturday who has taken the matter under ad visement
 The plan of the Southwestern is one Of the most extensive ever at tempted by 8 railroad in an effort tC secure a water supply. The South western has had unlimited trouble with the alkali water which is en countered on the surface and at shal low depths along its line between E Paso and Tucumcari. It is to suppl! good water for this stretch of tracI that the ambi tious project was con ceived
 The feeling in Lincoln county as t' the project is shown in the following from the Capitan News:
 Farmers along the Bonito abovt and below Lincoln, held a meeting a Lincoln last Saturday for the purpost of inauguTating proceedings agains the railroad company which propost to divert a portion of the Bonito u the west side of the divide.
 The meeting raised funds and sen Attorney H. B. Hamilton to Santa Fe and he will appear before the terri torial engineer gave public notic that all who desire to protest agains the diversion of the waters of the BC nto must appear and file their pro tests.
 IL is a much mooted question wha the results of such diversion woul be. Some contend that such dive sion would jeopardiZe the interests C the farmers even as far down tn creek as Lincoln and further Other hold that the construction of a daI on South Fork will be instruments in raising a larger quantity of wate to the surface than usually flow down the stream, and that the amour of water actually diverted will nC appreciably diminish the flow of th stream.

A prominent business man of this city gave out the following inter- view relative to the good work that is being done by Rev. s. s. Hol- comb, the city missionary:
 As citizen and business man l have been a close observer, inquirer and investigator into the methods used in the distribution of funds and supplies of all kinds that have and are being given to Rev. 5. s Holcomb, city missionary of this city, and find that he has been con servative, jpdicious and careful.

HolcOmb being in that business, all are re ferred No him.
