Conference is Opened.
Alamogordo, n. NJ, Oct. "a num-
I Der of the members of the AIamogordo
/ Commercial club met at the club rooms
and had an informal conference in
/ which Dr.. s NJ Johnson, OF Roswell,
VINO reviewed the recent work that
has been done on the Southern Ma
ConaI railway, but his especial inter
est was in the route from this city to
Roswell All portions of this route,
which is part of the Southern high
way, are IN splendid condition except
a. portion through the MeseaIero in
dlan reservation, and this needs to be
/ but into condition for the winter on
account of the excessive snow that
abounds in the canyons.
The particular portion is that
through what is known as Dark can
yon, and it is the intention to have
the road built on the sides of the can
yon and thus avoid the snow that usu-
ally collects in the bottom during the
winter. This portion of the road is in
1 Otero county and it is very probable
that local people will take the matter
up towards remedying the condition for
the fall and winter travel
