ADVERTISING RATES,
Tne custom among newspapers of printing
•ne rate and accepting another is fast disup-
PT?he ^iME8 has been a one-price organ since
1886. We find it pays.
Uniform rates are necessary for the satis-
faction of the advertiser and the success of
the newspaper, .
No Discounts, except those published on
this rale sheet are allowed to anybody.
The AdvehtiSing Agent can pay our rate-
and retail the space to buyers at our figures
with profit to himself. For instance; he buys
a hall column, 9 Inches, for one year for $189;
if he retails each inch at $42 a year his profit is
100 per cent, We sell at the same figure to
everybody.

The Las Vegas Optic announces that
Antonio Joseph will again be a candi-
date for delegate to represent New
Mexico in congress. It is said that his
Republican opponent will probably bo
Mr. J. B. Catron.
. The Santa Fe New Mexican has been
studying the question of railrpad build-
ing and agricultural developments and
thus sums up the situation:
Give the farmers of the Rocky moun-
tain valleys a direct railway outlet to
the gulf ports of Texas, and no farming
community in the west can compete
with them in producing breadstuffs for
the export trade.
Running along up through the moun-
tains, between the Arkansas river on
the north and the Pecos on the south,
are a succession of spacious, fertile
valleys, which, when they shall have
been li iked one to another by rail, will
comprise the granery of the whole
southwest. By reference to the map
it will be seen that, beginning at Pue-
blo, Colo., and moving south toward
the Gulf of Mexico harbors, we encoun-
ter the Arkansas, Wet mountain, St.
Louis, upper Rio Grande, Taos, Santa
Cruz. Pojoaque, Tesuque, Santa Fe,
Galisteo, Manzano, Bonito and tile Pe-
cos valleys. All these are not only
well settled at present with a thrifty
population, but they have such facili-
ties in point of fertility of soil, abun-
dance of water for irrigation purposes,
a superior climate, and already posses
an exceptionably good home market.
Skirting these several valleys are
mountains containing all the precious
and useful minerals; gold, silver,
copper, lead, coal, iron, petroleum,
salt, soda, gypsum, building stone,
marble and mica. Again thousands of
acies of virgin forests yielding the
best of lumber are near at hand, cover-
ing the several approaches to these
valleys, while last, but by no means
least, is the range, live stock industry
which flourishes from one end to the
other of this region, and yields busi-
ness for transport not only in the way
of beef and mutton, but hides, pelts
and wool in quantities not to be over-
looked.
Here is a combination of natural re-
sources that no other region of country
on the continent can boast of. Open
it With a north and south line of rail-
way from Pueblo to El Paso and Eddy,
via Creede, Santa Fe, Cerrillos and
White Oaks, and its prosperity would
be instantaneous and everlasting. A
great deal is being said just at present
about a north and south line of road
through New Mexico aud southern Co-
lorado at this time, but if any such
road is built it will probably be over
the route above indicated.
THE MEMPHIS BRIDGE.

The opening yesterday of the Childs-
Drexel home at Denver was an event of
of more than ordinary import. It is
not only a monument to the generosity
of two American citizens, but is a tri-
bute to the worth and nobility of a
guild of American workmen.
The Age of Steel, speaking of the
great Mississippi river bridge at Mem-
phis, which was formally opened yes-
terday, says:
“The structure itself is au added
triumph to modern engineering skill.
It has cost 82,500,000, and from its in-
ception to its completion has engaged
the energy, ambition and indomitable
persistence of patriotic citizens for
just 30 years. The scheme has been
repeatedly obstructed and postponed,
and has had the usual experience of all
such progressive ideas, but as it stands
today in its massive wealth and strength
of masonry and steel it is a fitting se-
quel to the foresight and patriotism
exhibited in securing its accomplish-
ment. The exact length of the bHdge
is 15,636,685 feet, lacking 105 feet of
three miles. The east approach is
2,641.47 feet in length. Then comes
three spans of 28.23 feet, making 84.69
feet. The anchorage span is 225.83
feet; from span 1 to span 2 790.42 feet;
2 to 3, 621.06; 3 to 4, 621.06, and from 4
to 5, 338.75 feet, making the bridge it-
self 2,681.81 feet between the extreme
piers, which is about the width of the
river at the average stage. The west
approach consists of high trestling,
which runs far out into the Arkansas
forests to an incline. The west ap-
proach viaduct is 2,290.625 feet. As
the only bridge of the kind between St.
Louis and the gulf, it will afford com-
peting facilities for any and all trans-
Mississippi business and cannot fail to
be an additional stimulus both to the
commerce aud development not only of
the Mississippi valley, but of the vast
domain as yet unutilized in t* e magni-
ficent areas of the south.
