Many Improvements Made And
To Be Completed For LOrdsburg
New Carage..Ownby Ranch SOAArs Stevens PusHsss Sold

Another new garage for Lon dsburg,
making the third to be erected within
a years time was begun this week by
Contractor Jack Heather for J. H
Fitzpatrick, proprietor of the Lords
burg Auto company.
The new garage will be located on
Railroad avenue opposite the Ownby
Bottling works on the corner lot for
merly owned by Mrs. Rita GerS ais.
1t is one of the best locations in town
for an automobile business being at
the entrance of the Borderland High
wav into Lordsburg.
The building will be strictly fire
proof being built of adobe and cement
1t will be 50x100 feet in dimension
and one story high. The building will
be equipped with the latest and best
automobile machinery. Contractor
Heather expected to have the work
completed by October 1st.
Since coming to Lordsburg two
years ago Mr. Fitzpatrick's business
has grown to such extent that his pres
ent quarters do not afford him nearly
enough room for storage and repair
work hence the expansion into a big
ger and better garage.

Much Mining Activity
In This Section

JAS. BARCLAY VISITING MINES.
James Barclay, well known capital
ist and prominent stakeholder of the
85 Mining company, is here for a
short time visiting the mines and
viewing the construction of the flo
tation mill by the company. Mr.. Bar
clay was one of the first capitalists
to be come interested in the famous S5
Mine. He personally supervised much
of the development work that even.
tually put the mine on its paying
basis and meant much to the
growth of Lordsburg. A large num-
Der of people in Lordsburg remember
the strenuous efforts put forth by Mr.
Barclay in staying with the work at
the mine day and night until an eX-
cellent body of ore was blocked out
The camp at the 85 Mine was known
under the name of Barclay for some
time past and only recently the gov
ernment christened the camp "Vale-
dom"
Mr.. Barclay has always been at
true friend of Lordsburg and has re-
ceived a warm welcome upon his re-
turn here. His home is in Nashville.

Hugh Williams Here
investigating Rates

Hugh H. Williams, chairman of the
State Corporation commission of New
Mexico, was a visitor in LOrdsburg
the last of the week. Those who
recognizing the man above named
will recall him by the name of "Our
Hughie", he having spent some of the
best years of his life Che admits it
himself) in Lordsburg.
Mr.. Williams was here investigating
the increase in rates of the Lordsburg
Telephone Company which were put
into effect the first Of September. He
states that the increase is a most
logical one as it is in keeping with
the other rates now being charged
throughout the state by larger syndi-
Gates. Mr.. Williams carried with him
letters from a large number of local
merchants and telephone subscribers
approving the increase of rates as o
necessary revenue at this time owing
to the rising costs of labor and ma
terials. There has been brought be-
fore him, the question of better serv-
ice from the local company, who it is
stated, allege that the Mountain
States Telephone Company do not
give them the service required, and
which is objected to locally. Mr.. Will
liams suggested that the local tele
phone users get together with off
cials of the Lordsburg Telephone
Company and the Mountain States
Company to discuss the matter and
find where the fault really lies.
While in Lordsburg, "Our Hughie"
called on friends old and new and was
generally welcomed as prodigal
son who has strayed from the fold
and is now corraled in Santa Fe
Speaking Of the increase in the
freight rates of Is cents per ton on
coal in New Mexico, Mr.. Williams
said that he would use his best influ-
ence in having this increase stopped
and seeing that New Mexico rates
were held down. 81 believe all rates
at present are high enough in New
Mexico and l intend to see that the
public is not imposed upon" said
Hughie. And those who know him
know also that he means to bring
about a change for the better.
