Fl PASO WANTS
 JUAREz TRACK
Citizens of Texas City, as a Rule, Favor Continuation of Racing Sport Across Border in Mexico


 Much local interest is felt. over the lSeported attempt of H. Brolaski to SC Icura abolition of racing at Jaurez Brolaski was formerly owner of the Tia Juana race track in Mexlco, closed through influence brought to. bear by California citizens. on ac- count of it's bad moral effect. It is a case of sauce for the goose and for the gander as well in Brolaski's opiu- ion and for that reason he is making every endeayor to secure the inter- vention of this government A re- quest from the United States would doubtless terminate, as in Brolaski's case in the revocation of the oonces- sion.
 In view of this fact 1t Sould un- doubtedly be interesting to Bisbee people to learn the view of the racing public and the effort of a number Of Fl Pasoans to secure the apolItion of the track, as held by a prominent Fl Paso citizen recently in B.sbee.
 w. L Hamilton, chief clerk of the Fl Paso and Southwestern who was in this city recently stated that the majority of Fl Paso citizens want the track in Juarez
 There is, of course, an element in Fl Paso who want the track done away with I believe however, thar the majority of the people are glad that it Is there and they can saYe amusement wherever they wish. The races are straight and clean, there are the finest horses there as per formers which can be found in the centre country The sport is good.
 '''The track, the grandsrand of which alone cost nearly S300,000 Is as fine as can be found on any circuit, not excepting the New York circuit. So far as I know there is no crooked work whatever.
 There is only one drawback to tht track which is the way the altitude affects the horses upon arrival. Sew eral very fine animals have died since the opening of the meet from pneu- monia The speedy animals are grad ually becoming more acclimated, how ever.
 q think it safe to say thar except for a minority the sentiment in Fl Paso is favorable to the racing game. In view of this expression. granting that it voices the sentiment of the ma ority of the residents of the Pass City redoub.ed interest will doubtless be felt locally in the outcome of the at tempts of the disgruntled Brolash to secure the abolition of racing in Cuidad Jaure.

 Quietly. and with practically no an nouncement of his plans, Dr Pearson, displaying a remarkable faith in a but little developed country. has in vested millions of dollars in cash in Mexico in the construction of rail roads and the building of giant saw mills and in other investments. With him are associated some of the big gest men of England.

PEARSON PLANS MEXICAN
 ROAD
seszns Wofk on Line Leading From MiRica to Gulf of Cal aoFnia that Promises Great uauss

M. RAsa. 4sxss. Dec. 15.-Dr. Frazk 6. Pesrsoa. whose big finan- eias sssssses sa Mexico have made his aa~s . nsssehoid one in the iu- yestmsHs and development world on the AmericaR continent. last night stated that work had commenced on the sea miles of road west from Mi naca Co she Gulf of California which is to give Fl Paso an outlet to the Pacific coast through the richest min eral and agricultural region of the sister republic.
 Dr. Pearson, when seen by a Times reporter in his private ear Mayflower. last night said:
 The work of making the prelim- mary survey for this road has already been begun. The geographical situa- ton of the country is such that many difficult problems in civil engineering will have to be solved, and 1t is i'm possible to tell at the present time 
 just how long 1t will be before the road is completed through to the Gulf of California The work, however, will be rushed and it win be done thor oughly, the best of material being used in its construction.
 "One of orr chief aims will be to promote agriculture We are expert menting in irrigation projects and win undoubtedly construct several large reservoirs along the road we are Anow building through the Casas Grandes district. It is our intention to make all Of this land desirable for farming purposes so that it will be taken up and tiled"
 Following is the route of the Pear, son line when completed to the Gulf of California:
 Over the Rio Grande. Sierra Madre and Pacific to Terrazas, where 134 miles of the road is being built to Madeira to connect with the Sierra Madre and Pacific The Sierra Madre and Pacific will be followed to Te mosachis. where the Chihuahua and Pacific will be followed to La Junta where a short branch connects with Minaca- The completed railroads and branches between here and Minaca are now owned in their entirety by Dr. Pearson and the interests he rep resents. The road which will connect them with the Gulf of California in the neighbour pod of the mouth of the Rio Mayo will be 300 miles in length It will connect with the branch road running from La Junta to Minaca and will give the Pearsons direct route from Juarez to the Pacific coast ot Mexico. The road is expected to re suit adVantageously to Fl Paso as much shipping in and out of Mexico will be done over it.
 Speaking of the commercial ad vantages of the road last night, Dr Pearson said:
 T believe that both Fl Paso ana Chihuahua N.a be greatly benefited from a business standpoint with tht completion of the road. Agreat min eral distrfct will be opened up ant much mining machinery will be pur chased from El Paso. The smelter will help Chihuahua"
 Dr. Pearson is typical BritisheI He is conservative and unassumine and unlike the majority of America
