MAXWELL WAS REAL KING OF U. S. SECTION Ruled Absolute Over Two Million Acres New Mexico Land. BUILT UP AN EMPIRE By rKBDEBIC J. HASKIS. CIMARRON, N. M., SepUlO,—This little mountain town of a few hundred lnniMtanta wa* once the headquarters of ono of the greatest estates that ever belonged to one man la America—the famous- Maxwell ranch —and the remains of the baronial dwelling from which It was administered, still stands here. In old books you can find facts about the Maxwell ranch, and from old-timers hereabouts you can learn a good deal more. Indeed, there are few persons in this ricinlty who can not tell you something either from hearsay or from firsthand knowledge about Maxwell and hie

doings. But to the world at large he and his J great estate are forgotten. And this Is to be regretted, for It would be bard to find a more significant and dramatic passage In early southwestern history than the story of this bit of land. Maxwell was really an absolute monarch, ruling oxer a domain larger than many of the states of the union, and several times as large as some European states that hare flags and crowns. Puthemore, he was evidently a born ! ruler and organiser. He was one of the Arst men to gather and hold land In the great southwestern wilderness, to organize and to make other men work for his profit. In a word he was one of the first American capitalists In the west. The establishment of his little kingdom marked the beginning of the transition from the pioneer days, when everytlung was free to everybody, to the system of private ownership upon which industrial America was built. That whole transition was fought out bloodily on this bit of soil. MISSOURI ‘•SHOWED** ’EM. Maxwell was a penniless and adventurous young man from Missouri who Joined the Fremont expedition to the west. He was discharged and paid off at Taos, New Mexico, together with a number of others, one of whom was Kit Carson, the famous scout and Indian fighter^ Maxwell and Carson were friends as long as they both lived. In Taos. lived some old Spanish families who owned wide lands Vranted them by the Spanish king. They did little or nothing with these lands and had only the vaguest Idea how much they owned. In addition to their lands these Mexican dons had large families, Including beautiful daughters. Nearly all of the discharged members of the Fremont expedition, Carson and Maxwell among them, promptly fell In love with senorltas. and both of these young adventurers were soon married. Here the difference between them asserted itself. Carson, a born fighter and wanderer, deposited his wife and family in an adobe house and left- them there, while he went out to male a place for himself In history as an Indian fighter and explorer. He never gathered enough property to hamper his movements. But Maxwell took his bride, who was I.uz Baubiea before he married her, went across the mountains, and settled here on the Cimarron, which was within the Baublen and Miranda grant Tbs Spanish owners had done little with this great piece of land. It was a rugged wilderness filled with wild Indians; they preferred to stay In Taos. But their Yankee son in-law from Mis sonrl proceeded to do much with it. He built a house, he brought In sheep and cattle, he planted corn and wheat. He did not heroically fight the savages, either; he made friends with them. Thus he displayed one of the first principles of capitalism, which is never to compete when you can co-operate. A STROKE OF GENIUS. His greatest stroke of commercial genius came later when New Mexico was being surveyed by a government sur-veyor-general. The deputy surveyo-a were paid by the mile of line they ran. It was therefore to their* advantage to survey as many miles as possible. The boundaries of the Baubien and Miranda grant, of which Maxwell had now by purchase and inheritance become sole owner, were vaguely defined by natural landmarks. The surveyors were easily persuaded to choose landmarks which allowed for a very liberal grant, in fact, astonishingly libera) Most of the Spinlsh grants were about 100.000 acres each, and there seems to have been some Spanish law limiting them to that extent. Maxwell managed to have included within the boundaries of his grant about -.000.000 acres, and his right to this enormous territory was confirmed by congress Thus he came info possession of an estate about sixty miles long and thirty miles wide, including some of the best cattle rang>e in the state, several fine arable valleys, and a section of high mountain range where were gold, coni and other minerals, and fine forests of pine and sprue*. Gams abounded, and the streams swarmed with trout. Here, truly, was a domain worth owning. Maxwell was at the height of his glory s a land baron about the year 1807. He had a great house which must have contained about forty rooms, for less than half of ft stands now. and that part contains nineteen rooms And this was no crude pioneer dwelling. The walls were tastefully papered, and it ia said, elaborately furnished. Maxwell had 800 men working for him. He had thousands of aheep, cattle and horaea, a flour mill and a sawmill. He was Indian agent for several tribes, and thia gave him the right to have a troop of cavalry on hi a place, so that he may be said to have had a standing army MONET TO BURN. He kept a free dining room where anyone might come and eat, hut none was allowed to pay. Ip fact, he dispensed a practically unlimited hospitality. Once a young Englishman passing through the country inquired of a man sitting on the front porch of the ranch house whose he would find Maxwell, so that he might pay tor hts breakfast, Thia aan was a yough-looktng fallow, dreeeed In dirty breeches and riding boots and a bright red shirt which was open at the neck to display a flourishing growth of coal black hair, of which its owner was evidently very proud. The man had long black mustaches aud smoked a short cuddy pipe. This uncouth Individual responded, to the amazement of the visitor, that he was Maxwell, but that no one paid him for meals. The young Englishman insisted on paying, and Maxwell steadily refused. Finally, howler, he yielded to th# in* purl unities of the stranger and said that the peloe of the breakfast was S2B. Kew the Englishman backed water. Ha would pay no such price for a meal. Maxwell let a whoop and a large redhaired cowboy, about six feet four inches tall, appeared on the scene. "Rope this eon-of-a-gun and choke ] him till he gives up twenty-five bucks, ordered the King of Cimarron. The next moment the young Englishman felt a strand of rawhide close about hi# neck and at the same rim* he dived into -Ms packet and brought forth the

desired amount In MBs, which he chokingly tendered to Ms host. With a gestaro of In compare Me grandeur, Maxwell touched a mafich te the money and lit his pipe at the flames, then tossed the charred remains aivay. Theincident was closed. Such was one of America** earliest plutocrat*. St. Joe T. B. Hospital Is Approved by U. S. Special to The Time*.
