GaIIup's Latest
Pipe Dream

A million tons of coal for the
Navy.
The Santa Fe will be compelled
to double track their coast lines,
to handle the 100000 tons of
coal from Trinidad, Colorado, to
the coast. There will be 1000
trains of 25 cars to each train.
This will mean great things for
New Mexico and especially Gal
lup as it will double the force of
railroad employees in our town.
1t will take many thousands
of men several years to double
track the coast lines, but by
working a large force of men
the could soon double track the
heavy grades SO as to be able to
handle this large coal contract
with there other business. Gal

LincoIn's Face on Pennies

No more is the face OF the Amer
lean Indian to decorate the cop
per pennies turned out by the
mints. The President has ap-
proved a design of the head of
Lincoln, so we are in for an in
novation of a decided character.
We DO not suppose that there
will be any great amount OF
grumbling, and yet it does seem
as if the change were advisable.
The Indian penny has been time
honored institution. 1t carries
us back to the days when the red
men were the owners OF this
great country. 1t is connecting
link between the past and the
present. The custom has never
been to imprint the heads OF
great leaders upon the coins and
there is no good reason why we
should disturb the old method.
Besides Abraham Lincoln was
never a One Cent Man.
