Interested in sunshine Sac

That the many people in ev-
cry section of the country and
Mexico are interested in the
Sunshine State is indicated by
the fact that the weekly bulletin
of the New Mexico bureau Of
immigration in the last issue
contained the names and address
ses of nearly 400 people who are
anxious for literature and other
descriptive matter of the Oppor-
tunities and resources to be
found in this state. The names
contained in the bulletin are of
people residing in other sections
who have written to the bureau
of immigration for literature.
Like other states, New Mexico
has established this bureau for
the purpose furnishing inform
alton to the outsiders with the
idea that it will assist in attract
ing people to the Sunshine state.
Thousands of inquiries are re-
ceived from month to month by
this bureau, the inquiries COM
ing from people in every state
Of the union and from Mexico,
all asking for information about
the state. Some inquire as to
the opportunities for farming.
others for mining, others for
manufacturing, others want in
formation about the free home
stead lands and many similar
questions are asked in the COM
munications. All of these are
answered by the bureau and as
a result New Mexico is being adj
vertised throughout the entire
country.
While the good work that the
bureau Of immigration has been
doing is generally known apdi
appreciated by the people of the
state many people are ignorant
of the thousands of inquiries that
are received from month to
month. With nearly four hum
bred names and addresses in the
last weekly issue Of the bureaus
bulletin it would indicate that
more than 1000 people in other
sections of the world make in
quiries every month about the
sunshine state.

AnOther New Railroad

announcer ANGW NAtAEuNN
From a press report, it is un.
derstood that the Altus, Lub-
book, Roswell and FL Paso Rail-
way Co., is to begin construct
ion soon. The dispatch reads:
Judge j. M. Elliott, attorney
here for the Altus, Lubbock,
Roswell and Eel PasO railroad,
says that construction work on
the line between Memphis and
Lubbock will begin on May Is,
next, is not being definitely de-
termined yet, however, whether
work will begin here or at Lub-
book this matter awaiting the
decision of officials of the con-
cerned road who are expected to
arrive in Memphis from Chicago
some time this week.
THE controlling Ed Kennedy
and the Texas Construction Co.,
interests of this road have re-
Gently been taken over by what
is known as the West Syndicate
a group of millionaires with
headquarters in Houston, Texas.
w. w. West, the active
member and agent of the syndi-
cate. has been in Chicago for
some time past arranging for
construction finances and will be
one of the officials arriving here
this week.
THE distance between Lub-
book and Memphis il one hun
dred and thirty-two miles, and
will have rails in Hall, Brisco,
Hale and Lubbock counties.
AS far as definitely planned,
the road will pass through or
near LOngview, Hall county,
thru Petersburg, Hale county,
and thence to Lubbock.
The line between Memphis
and Lubbock is expected To he
in full operation within two
years from the 18th of next May
the date of commencement of
construction work.
mo information is obtainable
in regard to extension from
either Memphis or Lubbock and
it is probable that such extern
sions will not be actively formu-
lated until the operating con-
struction of the line between
Memphis and Lubbock. There
will be a five hundred foot tun-
mel on the route in the Cap rock
region near Turkey the road
engineers reporting that this
tunnel will cost less than would
a sixty-eight foot cut, which
would otherwise be necessary,
the tunnel having the additional
advantage Of insuring the line
against snow blockade.
While this railroad will not
touch Clovis. still we are inter
ested as j tmeans an expenditure
of a good sum of money in the
state and will make railroad fac
ilities better here.

BALLENT|NE MUST
 HAVEFACTS FIRST Madison Jurist Will Then Decide Whether to Probe
 Alleged Frauds

Huntsville. April 5.-(SpeciaL)-In reply to Solicitor Drakes letter asking him 10 call special grand jury for the pur- pose of Investigating the alleged unlawful use of money at the polls in the demo- cratic primary election of Monday, Judge Ballentine of the law and equity court has written an open letter in which he in- inmates that he must be informed Of the character of evidence that has been col lected for the special grand jury should special grand jury be empaneled.
 Judge Ballentine intimates his belief that the hue and cry about corruption in the election election emanates from a band of politicians who were defeated. He suggests that the same results might be accomplished in simpler way by pre- senting the complaints to the inferior court and the county would be spared the expense of a special grand jury.
 Solicitor Drake has declared in an in- terview that he has a great deal of evil dence at hand relating to corruption at the polls last Monday.

Weather Conditions

Birmingham. April 5.-7 P. M)-The pressure over the eastern half of the country has fallen steadily during the past 24 hours and temperatures have risen slightly.
 An extensive depression of pressure overlies the northwest, extending south westward over the eastern slope of the Rockies. This disturbance has caused rain from western Texas to the Pacific, but clear weather prevails on it's eastern side in the Mississippi valley. Rain has fallen also fin the northern Rocky mountain re- zion and the Pacific northwest.
 Temperatures have risen slightly in all sections except throughout the Rocky mountain region and the intermonntain plateau.
 Cloudy weather prevailed throughout most of the cotton states and temper atures were moderate. In Birmingham the mean temperature for the past 24 hours was three degrees above normal. Condi- tions seem favorable for continued pleas ant weather Saturday with rather cloudy skies.
