IRRIGATION PROJECT
IN TAOS VALLEY
Blair BurweII, Expert Engineer, Tells
Of Plan to Reclaim $4,000 Acres
in That Section

Blair Burwell, an irrigation and min.
ing engineer Of long experience and
fine reputation in his profession whose
residence is at Durango. Colorado
where he has lived twenty eight years
is in the city gathering official informa.
tion concerning lands in Taos county
flow of streams and the like for the
Taos Valley Land company of which
he is consulting and constructing Ell
gineer, and OF which company A. r
Manly, one Of the leading citizens and
largest land holders of Taos, is general
manager.
1t will be remembered that applica.
Itions for the use of the waters of the
never failing HondO Seco and Lucero
rivers were made recently by the said
company before Territorial Engineer
Vernon L. Sullivan These applications
were approved and appeals having
been taken by some interested parties
to the territorial board of water COM
|missioners upon the favorable decision
'of Territorial Engineer Vernon l.. Sui
livan. the board confirmed his decision
at its recent session in this city. Under
these decisions the company has secur-
ed ample water supply for the irriga-
tion of at least thirty thousand acres
and the supply, if carefully managed
and husbanded, will sufficiently irri.
gate $4,000 acres of as fine land as the
sun shines upon anywhere.
Mr.. Burwell is very enthusiastic and
feels sure OF the success Of the project
He says the climate, atmosphere, fer
tility of the soil, large supply of wa.
ter available, grand scenery and
valuable mineral resources OF
the Taos Valley as we'll as the
peaceable and respectable character Of
the people combined, will make the
Taos valley thickly settled section.
People who once visit the valley usual
ly like it so we'll that they become per-
manent residents.
The fruit and agricultural products
raised there have no superior any
where and are the very best that are
produced on Gods green earth. This
year. despite the early frost, there will
be good crop of apples and peaches
and large harvest Of cereals such as
oats, wheat corn, etc. Alfalfa Is doing
first rate, cattle and sheep are in good
condition and the ranges are in first
class shape.
The construction Of the reservoirs
and bitches of the Taos Valley Land
company's extensive irrigation system
will prove of great value, as many
thousand acres of fine agricultural
lands will be brought under cultivation
and as result profitable crops will be
raised there. The company proposes to
sell water and land in lots OF forty
acres or more with contracts for SUI
ficient and permanent water supply.
Mr.. Manly, the general manager, is a
man of high intelligence, fine educa'
ton. great business ability and much
energy. Actual work on construction
of the reservoirs and bitches will COM
mence at an early date.

ty held their convention here
last evening and nominated
three delegates to represent
them at the territorial conven-
tion at Santa Fe on August IS,
which will nominate Republi-
can candidate for delegate to
the Sixty-first, Congress. The
convention was a very har-
monious one and proved that
the Republican party in Nc
Kinley county is in a good,
healthy condition and that it Is
managed by men who know
how to handle politics. The Re-
publicans here have wide
awake, progressive fighting or
ganization, which will put up
campaign here this fall that
BODIES no good for Democratic
hopes.
The convention passed strong
resolutions, endorsing Delegate
w. H. Andrews and instructed
it's delegates to vote for his re-
nomination. The sentiment ex-
pressed during the convention
showed that Mckinley county
Is practically solid for Andrews
4 to succeed himself as delegate
in Congress.
The delegates to the conven-
ton are Gregory Page, s. E.
Aldrich and G. N. Cotton; alter
mates, Gus Mulholland, John
Jennings and E. F. Kenny. s.

Texico, N. NJ Aug. S.-Thusday af
ternoon the Democratic candidate fol
delegate to the Sixty-first Congress, O
ia. LarraZolo, addressed about thirty
or forty people at Tafiinder hall in the
interest of his candidacy. He had some
Republicans among his hearers al
though he did not impress them as the
wonderful speaker he had been repre-
sented to be. He said that he ough

heard him could not help but believe
that many of his own race were i'm
plicated in the steal if there was any

press upon his hearers that the whole
Republican party was on the steal
Your correspondent has no knowledge
of when the Democratic party was
leansed-certainly not since the
Peerless Bryan has been trying to
break into the White House-because
the Populists of Texas were making it
rocky for the purified Democracy. 1t
is we'll remembered how some of the
boards of county commissioners would
appoint as corrupt men as one ever
saw as election officers Of the diff
ferent voting precincts, when there
were plenty of good men to be had for
the asking. Why? The echo answers
why, and man had to be of very
strong conviction and of great moral
courage to stand up against this mob.
Yes, Mr.. Larrazolo would like to have
the people believe in the Democracy's S
moral purity.
Then the "blue blooded Spaniard'
told his hearers that Delegate w. H.
Andrews had done only two things in
the last Congress for New Mexico
namely secured appropriations for the
cities Of Roswell and Albuquerque for
federal buildings and that he should
be given no credit for hunting up the
old soldiers who deserved and needed
pensions. Then he charged the Repub.

Report Of Publicity Committee.
Santa Fe, New Mexico,
august 7, 1907.
"To the Officers and Members of the
Santa Fe Board of Trade:
"Your committee on publicity re-.
ports with pleasure at the end of a
business year of the board, that in no
year before this has the city of Santa
Fe had as much valuable advertising
and publicity as in the year just ended
and to which work your committee
contributed no small part. In addition
to four distinct pamphlets and fold
ers, prepared and published by your
committee the past twelve months.
there have been scores of magazine
and syndicate articles in leading maya
zines and newspapers, illustrated and
otherwise, dwelling upon the attrac-
tions of Santa Fe. The railroad COM
panies have been induced to give the
city more extensive and better adver-
tising than ever before and 1t is true
today that Santa Fe is the best and
most widely advertised town in the
United States and that the results are
to be manifested by the in
crease of tourist visitors and the set
tlement here of persons coming to
make this their home.
"Your committee herewith presents
the latest pamphlet descriptive of San
taS Fe prepared by it and which has
been published by the New Mexican
Printing company free Of cost to the
board in a first edition of 5000 copies.
In this connection 1t must be said that
no paper and no agency have given
Santa Fe more valuable advertising,
and that free of cost, than the New
Mexican Printing company and its vet
eran editor, Colonel Max. Frost.
"Your committee has also described
and posted large map of the Pajarito
Cliff Dwellers' region which should
prove a great aid to tourists desiring
to visit that wonderful prehistoric Sec
ton just west of Santa Fe and which
will, in years to come, attract tourists
by the hundreds If not thousands, each
year.
