THIRTY NEW RIGS BY 1911.
Cortez Journal.

Cortez Journal.
Mr.. A. l.. Raplee came up from
Bluff this week and testified to the
constantly increasing activity in the
oil fields. New companies are con
stantly forming and getting in readi
ness for work Contracts are now out
that will bring thirty new rigs into
that field by the first of the year.
This fact will serve to bring to our
minds how near the "big rush" is to
that place. To our mind, by the first
of November there will be different
state of things all around that coun-
try, extending up as far as McElmo
canon. Oil men who have passed
back and forth say that the indications
in McElmo canon are the best, and
we would not be surprised to see
that producing oil field within year
In fact, from present indications, there
are both an oil and mineral boom
due that gulch.
The matter of transportation is
grave one. and one of vital import.

as far as Cortez, much will be lost to

Southern is still running between Do
lores and Mancos on the old light
rails used from the start, and the sen
sibie thing for them to do is to bring
the road from these places around by
CoItez and save this freight that other
wise will go to Gallup. We have it
rom many oil men that whenever this
is done and the road from the Utah
line to Bluff is fixed, that the freight
ard passenger traffic will come this
way. 1t is the ID. & r. G.'s move.

of Vhiva considered himself an In.
dependent authority until Khiva was
finally conquered in 1872, as narrated
in yesterdays letter, when the pre-.
tense was abandoned
The flocks and nerds of the Kirkhiz
form their only wealth and are the
so;-rce of large incomes. They are
the best breeders of cattle, sheep and
camels in Asia, and the necessary
search for fresh pasture is the cause
OF their migrations over the steppes.
Like the Bedouins of Arabia. they do
not wander Unfortunately, however,
but have settled quarters for the diff.
ferent seasons of the year, with many
fixed villages of mud huts and large
cultivated areas. Agricultural pursuits
are looked down upon by the naughty
horsemen, but are SO profitable as to
counterbalance the contempt that
those who pillow the ground are obliged
to submit to. Most of the Kirghiz
warriors devote themselves entirely to
breeding animals. leaving all the other
work to be done by the women.
They are tireless rough riders and
occupy the saddle for days at time
without showing the slightest fatigue
They are hospitable, generous and
amiable to those whom they consider
friendly, but their promises are not TO
be depended on. They never fulfill
a contract unless 1t is for their In.
terest to do SO. Their unreliability
and untruthfulness, however, are due
to indifference and laziness rather
than to vicious disposition They
are light-hearted, tickle, easily influ.
enced and affectionate, and one of
their best traits is their respect for
age and authority and their chivalry
toward women.
Eugene Schuyler, who spent much
time among them, says: 1.-THE Kirg.
hiz, owing 70 the simplicity of their
lives, ale far more children of nature
than other Asiatics, and have all the
faults and virtues of children. Prob.
ably the first acquaintance with them
will be found disagreeable, and Ger.
tainly the side the casual traveller sees
Is their worse, but, upon knowing
them more intimately, one cannot help
liking and even respecting them. and
1t is the verdict of every one who
has lived in Central Asia that the Kirg.
hiz are superior to all other races"
In religion they are Mohammedans
although they have no knowledge OF
religious doctrines or principles, no
settled priests and few of them can
read or write. They rarely pray. they
neglect all of the injunctions of the
Koran. as they do every other moral
principle, but would resent an insinua.
ton that they are not good Mussel.
