RAILWAY FOR

THE SAN LUIS VALLEY G. SOUTH
ERIN RAILROAD COMPANY
INCORPORATED.
OPENS VAST TERRITORY
A GREAT PROJECT. WHICH IN.
cLUDEs COMPANIES CAPITAL
lied AT $4,000, 900.

Denver-The Republican Saturday
morning says: Articles Of incorpora-
tion of the San Luis Valley G South
ern Railroad Company, with a capitali-
cation of 100000, were filed with
the Secretary of State yesterday aft
ernoon. The object of the road Is to
open for agricultural purposes the
Great Costilla Grant and develop the
Labelle mining district. The officers
named in the articles of incorporation
are: Franklin e. Brooks, former con-
gresham, president; Gerald Hughes,
vice president and treasurer. and II.
Alexander Smith, secretary. Besides
the officers the company has among
the incorporators such men as Horace
q. Lunt of Colorado Springs; Senator
William Lorimer of Illinois; Congress-
man Weeks of Massachusetts,, and
former United States Indian Commits
sioner Leupp.
The railroad corporation is but one
of group of corporations formed to
exploit and develop the resources of
the famous Costilla Grant in Southern
Colorado and North New Mexico. en-
bracing, as 1t does, 100000 acres of
fertile agricultural land.

all capitalized, together with the rail-
road. for total of $1O,OO0,000, give an
idea of the vastness of the plans OF
the incorporators
Adjoining the Costilla grant is some
1000 additional acres of agricultural
land which will be developed by the
water and power of the corporations
named above, making 100000 acres of
agricultural land alone to be devel-
oped.
A few years ago the Labelle Min
ing district in Southern Colorado was
discovered and gave promise of being
a very rich district. But there were
absolutely no railroad facilities and
the discoveries could get no money
out Of the ground with which to make
further developments. But the San
Luis Railroad Company has acquired
the rights to this district. will run a
branch there and open mining opera
lions on large scale.
Contracts have already been let for
the construction Of part OF the road
from Blanca, near Fort Garland, to
point on the Costilla river. and as fast
as it is completed new sections of the
road will be placed under contract.
Extensive operations are now going
on throughout the Costilla grant In
the way of constructing irrigation
works. canals and reservoirs, and
power will be developed from the
abundant water supply for operating
the district thereabout. 1t might be
said to be investment on the depart
ment store plan. for the company be-
hind the various propositions will
have half a dozen ways of deriving
income from the company when the
works have been completed. Con
gresham Brooks was largely instru'
mental in planning and financing the
