HUNING MERCANTILE COMPANY: A CASE STUDY OF MERCANTILE CONQUEST IN THE RIO ABAJO REGION OF NEW MEXICO, 1848–1880 By RICARDO “RICO” SANTOS GONZALES B.A., Philosophy, cum laude, University of New Mexico, 2009 M.A., History, University of New Mexico, 2017 ABSTRACT This master’s thesis is a case study of the L. & H. Huning Mercantile Company, a mercantile partnership in New Mexico during the territorial period. Louis and Henry Huning, a pair of brothers who immigrated to New Mexico from Germany in 1859, established wholesale and retail enterprises in the Arizona and New Mexico territories. Their main storehouse was founded in Los Lunas, New Mexico, in 1871 following the departure of Erhardt Franz to St. Louis. L. & H. Huning became a successful merchandising business in the Rio Abajo by establishing a mercantile monopoly in Los Lunas. The introduction of free-market exchanges, the extension of credit in traditional communities, and the creation of a market for locally grown crops—these factors contributed to their success over the Hispano merchants in the post–Civil War era. In addition, federal supply contracts entrenched L. & H. Huning in New Mexico, providing the store’s main source of cash flow. This component allowed the store to anchor its foundations in the community and structure the local economy. Through selling merchandise, providing a market for local crops, and extending credit to their customers, L. v & H. Huning was able to acquire its assets (wool and land) from store debtors in New Mexico and Arizona. The partnership ultimately made its fortune by selling wool to eastern industrialists. Merchants, such as the Huning brothers, wielded visible influence over the frontier economy through retailing, wholesaling, banking, importing and exporting, freighting merchandise, facilitating transactions, and receiving federal contracts. This thesis concludes with the dissolution of the L. & H. Huning partnership in 1888. The decline of the business was due to the end of the Indian Wars in 1886 (no more supply contracts), the closure of frontier posts, the decline of wool, and the importation of cheaper grains from Kansas via the railroad. In all, New Mexican merchant capitalists, such as the Huning brothers, established roots in their communities, earned fair reputations, adapted to New Mexican culture, provided economic services, and spawned multi-generational family businesses. Merchants replaced the Hispano patrons in the economic hierarchy, but created new social and economic dependencies in a changing capitalist landscape. vi Table of Contents List of Figures .......................................................................................................................... x Introduction ............................................................................................................................. 1 Chapter 1: From Competition to Monopoly: The Contest for Mercantile Supremacy in the Rio Abajo, 1848–1871 ......................................................................................... 36 Moses Sachs: The First Merchant of Los Lunas ......................................................... 38 The Impact of the California Gold Rush on the Hispanos of the Rio Abajo .............. 46 Erhardt Franz and the Relative Decline of Hispano Merchants ................................. 54 The Huning Family in New Mexico, 1848–1871: The Strength of Kinship Ties ...... 66 Conclusion .................................................................................................................. 81 Chapter 2: Quartermaster and Commissary Contracts as Cash-Flow: The Entrenchment of the L. & H.

Eddy County is currently experiencing a tremendous oil boom. New technology advances and discoveries have made land in this area part of the most attractive oil play in the world. For the first time since 1973, the United States has become the top oil producing nation in the world, driven by oil production in the Permian Basin.2 Recent assessments of oil and gas reserves in the Delaware Basin3 near Carlsbad, New Mexico have reported the largest continuous oil and gas resources ever discovered.4 These new discoveries and subsequent drilling have produced many benefits - increased employment, economic output, and government revenue. The purpose of this impact study is to attempt to quantify and estimate the impact of Eddy County’s petroleum industry on New Mexico from 2012-2018.

  • Renewing the Creative Economy of New Mexico
    Building on the Past, Facing the Future: Renewing the Creative Economy of New Mexico Jeffrey Mitchell And Gillian Joyce With Steven Hill And Ashley M. Hooper 2014 This report was commissioned by the New Mexico Department of Cultural Affairs and prepared by UNM’s Bureau of Business and Economic Research. As will be discussed in this report, we interviewed arts and culture workers and entrepreneurs across the state of New Mexico. We asked them for two words to describe New Mexico in general and for two words to describe how New Mexico has changed. We entered these data into a ’word cloud’ software program. The program visually represents the data so that the more often a word is mentioned, the larger it appears. The figure above is a representation of the words offered by members of the New Mexico creative economy when interviewed for this project. Acknowledgements We would like to thank Secretary Veronica Gonzales for her vision – without her, this project would not have been possible. Also, at the Department of Cultural Affairs we would like to thank Anne Green-Romig, Loie Fecteau and Paulius Narbutas for their support and patience. At the Department of Tourism, we would like to thank Jim Orr for his help with tourism data. We owe a debt of gratitude to the more than 200 arts and culture workers throughout the state who took time out of their days to offer their insights and experiences in the arts and culture industries of New Mexico. At UNM-BBER, we would like to thank Jessica Hitch for her intrepid data collection, Catherine A.
