Pro and Con.

The Times is out this morning with
an article on the bond election, the
first part of which tries to make the
merchants and mechanics believe that
they have made q mistake in not vot-
ing the bonds. If we have to vote
bonds to keep our me ;hanics employed
and our merchants in trade this winter
we would likely have to pursue the
same course every winter, and the
people who paY.the taxes are not like

The latter of the editorial we

endorsement "a:
been for the decislOn of the court OF
appe ais in q certain tag suit, the school

the case, then the.greater misfortune

schools can be kept open for the full

Tramp HeirOglyphics.

An Ell Paso housewife was wonder
ing the other day how it was that so
many Migrants came to her house for
food. She is of kind heart AID dis
position, and could no. resist the "pit-
eous appeals" of such suffering hui
manity." A FREUD came along pres
ently, and to him she confided the fact
that she was tired of feeding so many
trsmps. ''Do you know why they come
here so thick?" he asked. "No," she
replied. "Well, come here" he said
and took her out to the gate where
were scri billed 10 chalk, certain cabal-
isttc symbols. This chalk business, {"
veruacular. They have alaneuage all
of their own through which situations
as the expression is, from one
to another, and from gang to gang.
If a place is discovered to be
prime feeding ground, the fact
is chalked in tramp signs on the fence
or gateway, SO that others will profit
thereby, and that is the reason why
you are SO pestered with these fellows.
Had you refused them, different
symbol would have been chalked on
your gate; and if you had a savage dog,
the fact would also have been iudicat-
ed in vagsbond bierc glyphics. s'Now
see here" and he chslked large ring
around the cabalistic signs on the gate
post. NOW you watch and see what
comes of this"
Then the man went away. and the
housewife watched developments.
Several tramps came along presently;
stopped, studied the signs, and went
on. Others acted in a similar way I'M
til one man showed up who did venture
in rather timidly. He was sternly
refused, and on quitting the premi ses:
chalked q peculiar sign on the gate
| way. This appeared to be a clincher,
ard it is now rare thing for tramps
