courage, and the feeling that
Alamogordo was the ideal place
for camping, and that the cour-
tesy of the citizens was all that
could be desired.
There were eleven preachers
and about seventyfive delegates
and members present a t tn e
meeting, and about twenty tents
were in use.
Elder Giddings remains in
Alamogordo holding meetings
nightly at the Seventh Day Ad-
ventists chapel, on the corner of

to w. r. Edison for the use of
the park, and to NJ. Fl. Fisher
for the use of the electric lights,
Mr.. Nc. Rae for the lumber,
George Carl for the ice, and to

ally to the local pastors for cour-

of the Water Power company

Three THOUSAND LIVES ARE LOST
Storm and Flood in Mexico the
WOrDv in History.

The most terrible storm and
flood in the history of the country
was that which struck Montery,
Mexiao, last Saturday morning.
The property loss has reached
$50, 900, 600, and the worst is yet
unknown.
It's estimated that the death
list will reach two thausand or
more. Eight hundred bodies
have been recovered, and there
are missing enough to put the
list up to or above the figures
mentioned.
The town of Monterey has been
cut off from the outside world
since Saturday night, and most
of the accounts of the disaster
have been more or less guess
work on the part of the daily
papers, but the last accounts are
authentic and place loss of lives
and property far beyond the fig
ures of the most sensational of
these papers.

Every man who has had oc-
casion to give the subject of the
incorporation of Alamogordo any
thought, has without doubt made
a mental note of the advantages
to be gained.
What is needed is to create,
by a plain statement of facts, a
sufficient amount of interest to
make real these advantages.
1t is not particularly subject
upon which we can make the
"eagle scream" so to speak.
The matter of patriotism is not
involved, nor the matter of poll
tics; democrats, republicans and
even socialists can unite when
it comes to Incorporation.
And then again, it is matter
that vitality concerns all classes.
The working man and his inter
ests are involved. The profes-
sional man and the business man
and their interests are involved,
Why? simplest thing in the world
to answer: Because incorpora-
ton makes for the good of every
man, woman and child. 1t will

COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
APPROVE SCENIC HIGHWAY
Work of Gross SeCtiOning to be
Commenced at 0nce-H. La
Sale in Charge of Work

The County Commissioners met
last Monday, and conducted the
regular routine of business.
The tax rolls for 1909 were ap-
proved. The taxable valuation
of the county is now 50, 400, 900,
and the amount of taxes to pc
paid this year is $97, ,OS7.OO
The most important matter to
come before the board was the
road to Oloudcroft, to be known
as the "Scenc Highway.
This road is of vast importance
to the people of the coun ty, as.it
reduces t h e distance from
Alamogordo to Cloudcrott at least
eight miles, besides the differ.
ence betaeen afirst class road
and the one now in use.
The new higway is to cost
about seventeen thousand doll
ars, and will be eighteen miller
in length.
The work of cross sectioning is
to begin at once, and will be in
charge of Fl. La Sale, who made
the preliminary Survey, and who
is also to have charge of the con-
struction of the road.
The location work is to be com
pleted by Oct. 1st., when the ac-
tual construction will begin.
The work is to be let by con-
tract, and each mile separately
and Independently.
This will be, when completed,
0neUf the most interesting high
ways in the country, traversing
as it does four cafions of a natur-
al beauty nol surpassed in the
Southwest. In the famous Box
canon, where the most difficult
part of the work will be done,
the road will wind around solid
walls of rock, with the bed of
the canon in plain view in places
a distance of four hundred feet
below. One man was heard to
say that that when the road is
completed it will save its cost in
''cussing'' in a year." Persons
that are now compelled to use
the present road will probably
endorse his statment.
