There are Two
Large Cities and
Wholesale DISTRIBUTE
ing Points i'm the
Rocky Mountains
Denver, Colorado, with over 100000 population, and
Ell Paso, Texas, with about 100 600 population. The
richest part of the Rocky Mountains in natural re-
sources, farm lands, timber, minerals water power
climate and scenery lies about half way between Den
yer and Ell Paso
This rich country developing with all the rapidy
that the great surplus capital Of the o. S. make it.
Farmers are now taking up the farm lands miners are
developing the rich gold "copper" zinc, lead iron and
coal mines
This rich country half way between Denver and FL
Paso must have a convenient wholesale and manufac
turing city Santa Fe New Mexico "The Cultured
City of the Rocky Mountains" is the only logical point
for such city
Santa Fe is 335 miles by railroad north of Fl Paso
4SO miles by railroad south Of Denver GA miles by rail
road west Of Oklahoma City
Santa Fe is the only city in this section with more
than one railroad. Santa Fee is the junction Of
three railways, the New Mexico Central the Achson
Topeka & Santa Fe, and the Denver and Rio Grande
Santa Fe now has Approximately 10000 popula,
ton and will be as large Denver soon as men and
money can make it, because Santa Fe is surrounded by
richer natural resources, with climate that is drier
and cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter
AS example of the development around Santa
Fe, three million dollar company, composed of Phia-
delphia capitalists, damming UP the Rio Grande
river close to Santa Fe to make electricity by water
power Then Santa Fe will have electricity as cheap as
Niagara Falls. 1t is estimated that cheap electricity
has added one million to the population within 100
miles of Niagara Falls
SANTA FE IS THE CENTER OF THE WORLDS
MOST WONDERFUL 80 MILES SQUARE
WE ARE SELLING CHOICE LOTS IN THE
SOUTH PART OF SANTA FE, THE ONLY WAY
THE CITY CAN GROW These lots are surrounded
by nice homes and are within few blocks of the center
of Santa Fe's population.
