  • The End of the Trail: The Far West from New Mexico to British Columbia

    by Edward Alexander Powell ...
    “Isn’t this invigorating?” said a passenger on the Sunset Limited to a lounger on a station platform as he inhaled delightedly the crisp, clear air of New Mexico. “No, sir,” replied the man, who happened to be a native filled with civic pride; “this is Deming.” The story may be true, of course; but if it isn’t it ought to be, for it is wholly typical of the attitude of the citizens of the youngest ...
