Special to the Gazette.
Ell PAso, TEX, Feb. 23 -Captsiu
Thscker, Wells-Fargo detective, arrived
here to-day aud gave the following &c
count Of the train robbery 10 New NJ
leo: Last night at o'clock So the west
bound train pulled into STEMS pass, two
ordinary looking men were seen 10 board
the train. They were taken for tramps,
as they stole On the car, and nothing
more wss thought of them till
the train suddenly stopped q mile
and half cut Of STEMS
pass, when the astonishing discovery
was made that the train wss minus
locomotive, baggage, mail and express
CARS. Il then dawned upon the passen-
gers that the train had been held up. One
OF the two men who had boarded the car
appeared on the tender of the engine,
when three miles out OF STEMS Pass, and
with cooked revolvers compelled
the engineer TO stop the train,
bis confederate having alresdy IN
coupled the passenger psrt o. the
rain and notified brakeman to break up
the train, which he ium ediately did. AS
soon as the engine stopped, the wo men
at once went to Wells, Fargo & Co.'s car
and demanded the messenger to open the
door or they would blow him snd the car
into atoms. The car door was opened
when one Of the robbers entered while
the other stood out in the dark On guard.
The partner meanwhile systematically
going through the express car.
After he had secured everything Of value
that the car contained he and his partner
left, going southwark.
Thscher is OF the opinion that more
Than two men wers concerned In the
robbery, and that although none but the
two were seen 10 board the train at
STEMS Pass, there were confederaees at
the point where the engineer was com
PEELED to stop the trSin. He says the rob-
oers made clean swe'p, and made no at
tempt to rob the mail or baggage car.

Newspaper and Party Work.

IL is n little strange when we think
of it that the publisher of newspa
per is willing to do so much party
work for nothing. The expense of
setting up u political article is no wise
less than that paid for other work. A
political advertisement column long
is given free insertion and best place.
The thousand and one notices that
are published in the course of year
lin the interest Of the party" cost a
good many dollars, and brings in not
as many mills. In an enterprising
city about as many persons of one
kind of politics take party paper as
of the other.
Justice TO readers and certainly
justice to the publisher dictate indie
pendence and emancipation from irk-
some political tasks. The persons
who comparatively contribute the
least to the success of a party have
conferred upon them in most cases its
largest favors. Those who do the
most get the least. The very scars
they have earned in the cause are OBJ
jected to because of their disfgure.
