The FL Paso Herald seems to think
that the editor of the LIBERAL had
eyes in the toes of his amputated foot.
Incorrect, it was just an ordinary foot.
In commenting On an item in the last
Liberal telling Of the effects Of Tom
Wade's variety troupe on the New
-AIeXico legislature it says: 'It was
thought that the loss Of a leg in El
Paso was enough to keep the editor OF
the Lordsburg Liberal from knowing
whether the variety actresses Of El
Paso were pretty or not, but the fol
lowing from that paper shows other
wise"

Just after the editor Of this papel
returned from the hospital where hC
had his leg cut of, he sent bills to al
the subscribers who were owing or
the paper, with the intention Of start
ing a wooden leg fund, being now il
need Of such an article. Many Of tn,
subscribers failed to respond. Som,
came to the front with the money ow
ing to the paper. One man wrote a
follows: "As a matter Of experience,
know that a a who is fairly homes.
In the ordinary transactions Of life anC
who would scOrn any reflection on hi
personal integrity, who will pay tn,
butcher, the baker, the candle.sticl
maker without a murmer or dispute
Will lie like a pirate about his newr
paper bills, and deliberately plan Il
get the best of the printer and pub
Usher. 1 enclose you check, ETC..
