Good l'lne to Kmlf rftte from.
A reporter of the Gazette called on
)r. J. V. Noel hist evening in his quar
ter t ih ? Grand View. The doctor wat
just in fmiH the couth, and apologized
for his app arance as ho was complete
tired out. lie had not recovered frou.
an eleven hours freezing hewas subject
ed to while riding on the stage from Ej
IW
As will he remembered he left foi
1 iuaynias (tome months auo as confidential
clerk to chief engineer MorLy, inchargt
of the construction of the A. T. k S. V.'t
line from Guaymas eastward through old
Mexico. But ho resigned early in Sep
tember and after stopping several weeks
at Ilcrniosillo lie went thence to Tucson
and then journeyed on to El Paso at easy
stag's.
:iWhy did you leave Guaymas, doc
tor?" was the abrupt question we ad
dressed to him, after he had described
his journeyings.
"On account of uiy health," he made
answer with a smile on his face.
''Then th. climate did not agree with
you ?"
"No nor L cannot see how it would
agree with anyone. Why, I compared
the average temperature, taken morning,
noon and night, with a tabular statement
of the averages at different points all
over the world, that I found in Scrib
iiers Monthly, and Guaymas was near
ly as high us the hLhest."
"What, as hot as Allabahad?" we
queried, taking as a standard the town
in India, which has como to be accep.ed
as a synonym for Tophet.
"I don't mean quite as hot, still the
average comes up very nearly to that."
Continuing he explained that the cli
mate is detestable, but no worse than the
living. The fare is of the coarsest, and
after the close of the oyster and veget
able seasons, which end about the first of
May, soup and milk are the only palat i
blc articles of diet. Canned peaches
that sell for 20 cents per can in the
states, there cost 01.20, without any
margin of profit being added. In their
season, oysters are secured of good quality
and abundantly and although not as large
as those found in eastern waters are yet
delicious; the same applies to vegeta
bles. 'What was the feeling towards the
Americans when you left ?"
"The native population regarded them
as interlopers. There was oj en hostility
exhibited and I think that it would not
take much to arouse them to commit
acts of violence. I have even seen this
advised in Mexican papers. To tell the
truth, it was just that, that convinced me
that Guaymas was a good place to emi
grate from. Sooner or later a conflict
will come, and some of the boys will have
to go under. But they will make a brave
resistance, however, as they have a large
building with walls three feet thick
which, Wv-re they to once get inside of,
they could hold a large force at bay for
a long time. Then there are the Vacqui
Indians who are employed on the rail
road, who will make trouble. They have
one of the richest valleys in Mexico
which the government covets, and pro'
poses to move them from their reserva
tion in much the manner adopted 'y our
government, I tell you, I fear trouble
trouble and thought it the wisest course
to get out of the country."
lie expressed himself as charmed with
Ilermosillo, which is in the midst of a
finu agricultural country. But most oi
all was he impressed of the great futun
in store for El Paso. "I don't go much
on any town on Mexican soil, but I d
think that El Paso, Texas, is the best
t nvn in the country to go to."
The doctor will remain in Las Vegas
for a few days recuperating and will thei
jiin his partner in El Paso, where li
will engage in business and practice hi
profession.

On 19 El Phio.
From Wm. A. Smith the following
ircms of interest concerning the building
of railroads in the southern purl of the
Territory arc learned.
The El Paso branch has been locate 1
and work will commence thereon inmie
diatly. It will be about ninety miles in
ength and will leave the main roa 1
about three miles north of Colorado,
near the southern portion of the Joma
do, where the road crosses the 11 io
Grande. The firist twenty miles of the
branch is over a very heavy grade, that
vill take at least ten weeks to complete
Work on the main lino is being pushed
rapidly forward; all the contractors hav
ing commenced to grade. Over 200
men compose the construction forj e, and
have been rushing the grading vigorously
for the last six weeks. This is proof
positive that the road will bo pu-hed on
through to Guaymas with dispatch. Con
ductors have commenced to grade as far
west as Fort Cummings and the track
layers have reached the famous Martini's
wells on the Jomado. This noted point,
about which so much has been writ en
in the past, has now become a railroad
point. The A., T. & S. F. company in
tend to bore three artesian wells on the
Jomado, and the first, located about
thirty miles south of San Martial, has
already been commenced.
The Southern Pacific road is now
within seventy-five miles of El Paso and
work is being pushed with energy. The
work on this road is almost entirely done
by Chinamen, not even horses and scrapers
being used, the Celestials doing all the
giading with shovels.

There will be a meeting of the above
lodge on Friday evening, November Md
at 7:H0 sharp. All members in good
standing are cordially invited to attend
as business of the utmost importance is
tj be transacted.
By order of tho W. C. T.
Eliot Ryder is in t. e city on hi.
way back to the cast where he will
write a book "New Mexico in 1881
will) Glimpses of its Past Condition."
It was his intention to go on to the
City of Mexico and write of Old
.Mexico as he will of our terrilory,
but . the demand for a fepeedy puhdea
tion of the book being urgen i, he ha
postponed his nip lor the present
The book will be gotten u i p' p Oar
f riii and will deal with i-uud fuel and
figures ami a pl.nl n statement of our
resources. It will do more good than
toe ordinary books, writieu in Soplo -itioric
style, and will have more o
-ay .of sheep and mines than -'snow
clad hills" etc. The book will be pub
lished by the old rel able linn of
James 11. Osgood & Co., of 5otoii,
which is a sufficient guarantee that i'
will be of value to us. Mr. Il d r has
received considerable encouragement
i rom t lie territorial and government
itficials, who appreciate the good to
result from t he publication of Mich a
work, as he intends writing.
Ii has been suggested that it
would be a wise procedure tor our
m rchauts to close their stores every
veiling except Saturday evening at 7
o eloek. It ihls were done, there
vould he more t-oeiety in Vegas, is
or business meu would have morj
usure time to themselves and could
.mirouizti eniertaintne t-, and nn ro
ncouragemcnt he given those who
.mike tin effort to interest the public.
Verea ueti i m S'arted, wo doubt n t
out what it would secure ihcsigiin
ures of our priucipól business men,
f not all the merchants in general.
There 1 comparatively a sin 1
uno int of busincFS transacted in the
evening, but as it is now, all places of
business aro néccssariiy kept open in
elf defence.

Not. to be regarded as too cri'ir-il,
we beg leave to suggest that it would
reflect more credit upon our people if the
demonstrations of appr val on the part
of some of the audience at tho Mitch -11
entertainment were more moderate. Such
boisterous stamping as was indulged in
on last evening is decidedly un
pleasant, to say the least, as it raises a
dust.
As regards the statement in yester
day's Optic concerning th non-departure
of the Las Vegas mail yesterday, the
post-office clerks say that they had the
mail ready to be sent whenever called
for and that it is the mail messenger's
business to keep himself posted is to the
arrival and departure of the trains and to
see that tho mails are properly delivered.
The intimation that the failure of taking
the mails from tho office here was t :e
fault of tho clerks is un rue.
The delay in tho trains is primarily
causad by lack of motive power on the
Santa Fe road. The reason why no ad
ditional rolling stock is secured is said to
bo that whin tho junction of tho road is
made with the, Southern Pacific It. R.
the Santa Fc road will come into pos
session of cars and locomotives in abund
ance, which would make any outlay n w,
although very convenient, still excecd-
.' I . .
ingiy expensive, considcrins the short
I im that it would hit absolutely needed.
The train from the s juth a'.th -ii:h
on tune brought no mail, as there was
vo mail agent aboard. Wc live in lio
h that delegate Luna will secure the
appointment of several additional postal
j agents if the trouble is not remedied be
lore he has a voice in the mutter.
