Whit Is the matter with the
gentleman who formerly wrote the
editorials on the bond question, for
the Eagle and Sentinel2 Oh, Alb,
yes. be has gone east; that is the
reason, we hear no more about
paying the bords.-Enterprise.
The stupidity which prompted
the Enterprise in publishing its
ridiculous theory in regard to the
legality Of the a. 4. & s. Fe rail-
road bonds, Of which much has
been said in the press of this
county, has also given birth to the
expression contained in the above
paragraph. We want to empha-
size, right here, that every line
that has appeared IN the columns
of the SOUTHWEST SENTINEL, on
the railroad bond question, was
written in this Office by the people
connected with the same. Whether
those articles contained the senti-
ment of consistency and honesty
we leave for our readers to decide,
but certain it is that the credit or
%censure, as the case may be,
belongs to none other than those
associated with thispaper.
AS 10 the reason why you hear
no more con the bond question"
we viii say that from a standpoint
of intelligent argument we have
said all hat could be said; we have
satisfactorily answered all sensible
questions asked by our esteemed
contemporary. We have not, how.
ever, taken cognizance of tn,
trihing ill-natured filings contained
in the Enterprise over this matter
from the fact that they were un
journalistic aud beneath a news
paper devoted to the interest OF
the people.
As to our duty in the bond mat
ter we are not only confronted
with an obligation OF honor but
the courts will decide that it is
also a debt Of justice and law.

SHORT TALKS on ADVERTISING.

The first insertion Of an adver-
tisement very seldom pays. That
is to say-if you have never adj
vertised before in a certain paper
it will take some little time for its
readers to get acquainted with
you, and until you do, don't expect
much return. There are occasion
al exceptions, of course, but they
are few and far between. 1t is
the systematic, persistent effort
that pays in advertising as in
everything else. In taking medi-
cine the regularity of the dose is
almost as important as the drug
itself.
For that reason the columns of
the newspaper offer the very best
medium for business announce
ments. For that reason, programs
and wall hangers and schemes of
all sorts, from an industrial write
up of the town to q picture card,
are never effective. 1t may be
well enough to indulge in q pretty
novelty occasionally, if you are
using all the space you need in the
papers.

grammes and of other schemes

in my whole experience on both

known or heard of a single adver-

The local newspaper goes into
the house bristling with lntelli-
gence, brimful of the news of the
world, sparkling with the daily
doings of the community. If it,

HUpSON HOT SPRINGS.

From the following, clipped
from the Ell Paso Times, our read
ers viii see that the hotel and san
itarium projected sor1e time ago
at Hudson Hot Springs, in this
County, is now being put in con-
dition to take on material form.
Read it:
"a. R. Graham, president of the
Hudson Hot Springs Sanitarium
company, is in the city to have the
Ell Paso contractors bid on a large
hotel and bath house to be erected
at Hudson Hot Springs at once.
Mr.. Graham showed a Times re-
ported the plans aud specifications
of the new building. The hotel
viii be a three wing building 40
x180 with a hundred foot court in
side. The hotel will be large
enough to accommodate 100 guests,
and will have 20 rooms. Com
pleted and furnished the hotel
will cost S25, 900. 1t will be heat
ed with hot water from the springs.
A twelve foot veranda will extend
all around the building on the
outside, and there will be an in
side s foot veranda overlooking
the court. The building will be
equipped with all modern appli-
ances for comfort and pleasure.
The bath house will be 30x50 and
a pretty piece Of architecture.
MI. Graham says his company
will not spare any expense in
identifying the grounds and equip
ping them with everything that
could add to the comfort, pleasure
and amusement of the public.
Nice grounds for athletic sports
will be provided.
Cool spring water from the
mountains will be piped down ia
the hotel from a distance of a
quarter of q mile in the mountains
at an elevation of 20 feet above

NORMAL SCHOOL FINANCES.


As a means of correctly inform
ing our readers in regard to the
true financial status Of the Normal
School at this place, we requested
the Hon. Geo. w. Miles, secretary
treasurer Of the board of regents,
to prepare for us such data as
would be interesting to the friends
of the institution. From a peru
sal of the following letter it will
be clearly understood that the in
stitution is suffering slight embar-
rassment for want of ready funds,
with which to discharge an accu-
mutation of obligations. 1t must
not be inferred from the following
exhibit that this condition is the
result of indiscreet action or ex-
travagance on the part of the
board Of regents, or that it is at
all liable to be permanent. Had
the bonds authorized by the last
Legislature been ratified before the
close of the last congress, as it
was fair to presume they would be,
the board of regents would have
had plenty of funds with which
to pay every dollar they owed and
the building would have been COM
pleted without delay. AS the
matter now stands a petition will
perhaps be circulated among our
business men in a few days for
the purpose of raising enough
money to go forward with the
work.
SILVER CRY, N. NJ, June 10, 1895.
Ed. SOUTHWEST SENTINEL:
In response to your request concern.
ing the financial condition OF the Nor.
NAL School at Silver City, I 1 beg leave to
make the following statement:
When the building, now in proc ess oil
, erection, Is completed as per items Of
present contract with Laizure & Grade
wiz, building finished outside includ.
ing doors and windows, with three rooms
on first floor ready for use next fall the
school will owe about four thousand
dollars, viz: $500 to teachers and Incl.
dentals, and 5000 to Laizure & Grade
contractors. We expect about that
amount Of money to come in in July and
August, when taxes are collected. But
how will the building be furnished and
how will the board OF regents pay in
stallments to contractors from time "a
time so as to keep the work on the build
ing moyingY The building should be-.
ready for use by September LIST, next.
which is impossible unless the money il
on hand 10 pay these in%stallments as
specified in contract with builders
$500 cash would meet this demand and
$50 apiece paid by each Of fifty men il
Silver City would furnish the necessary
funds. The board of regents cannoI
legally assume obligations beyond the
extent Of the taxes levied and collected
but when the bonds authorized by th'
last Legislature shall have been places
/, and money raised on them, the board o
regents can indemnify those parties (
the extent that they have helped thI
school in time Of need. We must havl
} the school ready for use next fall b.
September 1st. Win fifty representa-
? tive men Of Silver City come FORWARD
and offer $50 each to raise the neoessarl
funds for carrying on the noble work 81
we'll begunS We believe they will. Lett
} hear from some n else.
Yours truly,

than a convention, for there is no
fixed basis Of representation, and
it is not held under the authority
of any political organization. The
promoters Of the conference say
that this spontaneous manifesto
ton of a strong and growing pub
lie sentiment may be traced di-
rectly to the convention of May

the guest Of honor.
Delegates arrived on every train

called to order at 2 o'clock this

but certain arrangements we're not

and saluted the delegates as the
advance guards of the mighty
army to overthrow a power more
reckless and rapacious and more
