The Ell Paso fire department is some
| thing to be proud of" said a stranger
standing in front of the city hall this
| morning. ''There are many cities in
the United States of over 100000 popu-
latiOn that do not make as good show
| as the Ell Paso department.. The ap-
paratuS is neat and clean, the paid men
tidy and active, and the horses as well
trained as anywhere in the union. The
whole department is in first class
shape, and when the state firemen meet
here in May. they will be agreeably
surprised at what they see in a town of
this size, and 1 am fully satisfied that
state return to their homes they will
pattern many of their improvements on
what they see here. am told that the
volunteer men are just as active and
take as much pride in the department
as the paid men, and if that is true l
am willing to assert that there is no
city the size of FL Paso in the union
that has as good fire department.

THE machine is gaining ground back

said an independent this morning.
Every day brings more losses of vot-
ers to their ranks and voters whom
they counted on as sure things
The machine is working finger and
nails off in trying to corral the Mex
lean vote, but they find that there are
several Mexicans who have the man.

fl and the Almighty dollar does not
always 60"
The machine went to work this
morning and there were number of
voters present studying over the rules
of the bosses in regard to the Austria
liam ballot. That ballot is "soaker"
and many 'guarache" will get
tangled up in the iutricacies of study
| ing out just who they will vote for.
Now that Jim Dwyer has pulled down
and out of the race for the chieftaiu-
ship of the police, probably 1. E. Ar

has no love for O'Keeffe because the
latter did not endorse the action of Po-
liceman Archer in putting several pis-
toll bullets in the back of an inoffensive
truckster who was bringing sack full
of vegetables into town to sell one
morning last summer.
The machine ticket is said to be in
sad straghts for want of money. The
county officials are not coming up with

healer is wrinkled thereat.

In Judge Magoffiu's pronunciamento

There seems to be Il bug under the

franchise" said an independent voter
this morning. The head of the ma
chine ticket straddled the issue on the
franchise and it is now said that the Ell
Paso Southern railway company is
backing up the machine ticket with all
their might. 1t is we'll known fact
that George Look stands in with the

this that caused Judge Magoffin to in-

Magoff1n, as mayor, would do anything
to di5honor himself or the city says
the Times. No and the Times could go
further and say that no republican, in
dependent democrat or laboring man
have ever made any such oh arge against
Judge Ma coffin. The public older on
certain points of public policy and on
that point the campaign will be fought
out. a man may be honest. but not pro-
gressive: he may be honorable, but still
Il moss back on public Improvements:
he may be proud OF FL Paso, but still
love old adobe land marks better than
three story bricks.
The republicans are sticking close to-
gether in this election and there is no
fights within the ranks. but each are
working for the success of the ticket.
How different are conditions in the
democratic ranks. y large number of
democrats, who the machine thought
would surely flock to the support of the
ticket have slumped away and will
vote the repub1i an ticket. Only yes
terday District Clerk Esca jeda and AL
dereta, two OF the machine : main ward
workers, We're seeking quarters where
they could open up headquarters on
their own hook, as they were opposed
to the methods adopted by the ma
der Charley Patterson Since Park
Pittman has taken charge OF the ma
chimes campaign it remains to be seen
whether the two above mentioned ward
makers will do any bstter under Pitt
man than they did under Patterson.
There is great jealousy among the
ward heelers, and some of them are
sulking and refusing to get out and
rustic.
James NJ. Dwyer is out in a card in
the Times acknowledo cling that he re-
cognized picture of himself in a car
toon in the HERALD yesterday, and
says he is not candidate for the Office
of chief of police. Judge Magoffin says
he will not appoint Dwyer as his chief.
AS an election is always uncertain until
all the votes are in it was unnecessary
for Judge Magoffin or Mr.. Dryer to
show undue haste, but the public will
undoubtedly breathe easier now that
the announcement is made. There :
many a slip" etc.
There seems to be a long shortage in
the pockets of both campaign commit
tees, which has caused the faces of sew
eral ward heelers. and would be ward
heelers, to grow quite lengthy and
gives them an.unusuaIly vinegary ap-
pearance.
Many of the old democratic war
horses who have always been fghting
in the front ranks of their party at
every election are now sulking in their
tents and refused to be c1nSOled he
cause they have been cast aside by the
machine and a lot of untred stripplings
of ward heelers put at the head and
front of the party. Verify, the demo-
Gratis are full of discord.

Work Being Gradually Resumed at
Many Points.


Many Points.
WAsHINGToN, Sept. 21.-M. D. Ratch-
ford, president of the United Mine
Workers of America, who is here to
attend special meeting of the officers
of the Federation of Labor, gives the
following statement to the Associated
Press today:
''Today will see about rs, 900 miners
resume work in the bituminous coal
fields of the Central states. The strike
generally ends today. The mining situa-
ton is not likely to become disturbed
again until the beginning of next year,
at which time we hope to be able to
settle the wage differences amicably and
without the necessity of striking.
''Of course the victory is not altogether
one of the miners. While they have
done the striking, the trades unions and
organized bodies have supplied the
necessaries, without which the miners
could not have possibly succeeded. 1t
Is victory for organized labor and not
tor any particular trade, and we want
our friends who have helped us to feel
that It's their victory as we'll as ours.'
