AN INTERESTING
COINCIDENCE IN
LOCAL RECORDS

In Sundays issue of the Journal
there appeared an article on the
Santa Fe shops, in which it was
stated that when the project of
building additions to the shops was
completed they would be second to
none in the country in equipment,
and second largest on the system.
On Friday, April 23, there ap-
peared in the Kansas City Times
under the heading, kansas City
Forty Years Ago. the following
item: yesterday a great celebra-
ton took place at Albuquerque. n.
NJ, in honor of the completion of
the Santa Fe railway up to that
point. Kansas City and the Times
extend to Albuquerque hearty con-
gratulations upon this further in
dication of her prosperity
An interesting coincidence lies
in this notice of forty years previ-
Gus, bringing almost to date the
announcement of the Improvement
of the shops which at that time
, were the chief reason of being of
this city, and which are today the
important industrial feature of AL
buquerque.
Still more interesting is the state
ment made in Albuquerque papers
| of the same year and the follow
ing day. that is, April "a, 1880
when an account was given of the
great celebration which took place
in Albuquerque as a welcome to
| the roadbuilders of the Santa F'e.
The account follows in part:
by s o'clock the crowd began
to assemble From every direction
they came and almost every con-
ceivable conveyance. Marshals,
committeeman and officials dressed
out in sashes and badges of author
ity moved about the streets in the
discharge of their duties. A little
after ~ o'clock the train from
Santa Fe rolled in and was received
with long continued cheers"
Then began the exercises in
which all of the well known names
of that day took part, w. B. Child
ers, Don Santiago Baca, M. A
Otero, Judge w. C. Hazeldine. Don
Ambrosio Armijo, Hon. e. S. Stov-
er. Hon. Franz Huning, Don Nestor
Montoya and a host Of others. The
account continues.
"Iudge Prince was called out
on behalf of the people of Santa
Fe. esnecially the three hundred
excursionists who came down to
aid in the celebration, and de-
clared that no feeling of jealousy
existed between the cities, and de.
c'ared also that no s"ch jealousy
should be allowed to grow IN the
prosperity. progress ard Growth ri
o-a heinc for tho good of all. Dor
/ Tranouilino Luna and Father Gas
mari were also called out and ir

Scheme Said to be Backed
by Texans to Establish a
Power Site Would Affect
Irrigation in State.
BY j. NJ. Hawkins,

A letter in this issue published
on our editorial page was written
on the letterhead Of the "PoCUs
Valley Water Users Association o,
Texas" Vernon Sullivan being
chairman of the executive commit
mittee.
Mr.. Sullivan was formerly state
engineer of New Mexico and an
aDle official. He aided to establish
the practices and laws of thus staie
with regard to waters of streams
He helped to lock the doors against
those who would raid the rgntS
and retard the development OF oul
valleys and block future progress.
Gong later to an irrigation IN,
terprise at Fort Stockton, in Texas
he has become the head of q
movement to develop vast areas OF
land that Texas withheld from the
pool of the United States doman
ownership. Texas gave no land tt
our government when she wa,
adopted as a state. New Mexico
trustingly gave all-and cannot gel
it back--eXcept in small grants.

All of its water, in time will b,
needed in this state. Mr.. Sullivan
knows it. He knows that 10 rus.

not the initial step.
To appropriate New Mexico wa.
ters for irrigation requires that al
prior rights shall remain undis'

rights existing that date back lol
centuries.
Seeking Power Site.
But there is a law that make.
easy the acquisition of power

seeking-and the location IS II

been filed, perhaps by citizen oi

to the inevitable claim, when {

would incidentally prevent decrease
of the flow in Texas.
