First Of December

people-El paso Ought To Be a
Boot and Shoe Manufacturing
Center

The HERALD has the pleasure of be-
ing the first to announce the esta bl1sh-
ment in this city of large new manu-
featuring plant. The cry is always for
many to be the secret of permRnence
in our prosperity. Hence it is with
peculiar qualification that we learn
that Charles Rokahr, the we'll known
and popular boot and shoe maker, has
succeeded in organizing stock COM
pany, and on the first of December will
EN- bark in the wholesale manufacture
of boots for the trade.
Mr.. Rokshr has long been noted for
the excellency of his cowboy boots.
No other maker in this part of the
country has been able to compete with
him in the production of these articles.
1t Is understood that one of his much
pleased customers has provided un-
limited financial backing for the new
company. and will be associated with
Mr.. Rokahr in the new enter
prise.
The company will he incorporated
capital of S25, 1000. Much new ma
chinery will be put in, and the
factory will at first employ between
fifteen and twenty-five persons. The
business will at fret consist principal
ly of making cowboy boots for the re-
tail trade, but other branches will be
later.
Mr.. Rokahr says he had enough of
the east upon his last trip, and he
feels certain that his new enterprise
will pay we'll from the start. He can
see no reason why this city should not
become center for the manufacture
Of boots and shoes. Leather and labor
are both cheap and easily obtained,
and the markets are close at hand.
Ell Paso congratulates Mr.. Rokahr
and wishes him every success.

NApOLEON'S BOOTS
Sold At Auction In AlsaCe-LO-
rdine


Talking of boots, the pair worn BY
Napoleon at his corona alton were sold
the other day near Alskirch, in Alsace,
| for % marks. David has left US . care
| fully-painted image of them in his
painting of that function. They were
| made by an Alsatiap named Moll, ac-
cOrding to a design he furnished, with
| the other articles of the imperial suit
! The leather was of that kind OF moroc-
CO which is used in cream-colored
babouches of the Moors-the incest
leather OF any to sensitive foot.
Then David was not easily satisfied,
and made the shoemaker discard two
pairs on which he tried Ills hand be-
fore he made the third, which were in
all respects just what he wanted. The
bill for the boots was e40. Napoleon
thought it impudent robbery, but he
calmed down when Moll offered to ask
nothing if he gave him back the boots
Emperor though he was, he took the
shoemaker at his word.
This tradesman in 1904 was at the
top of the wheel, and had the business
of the court and higher members of
the armies of Napoleon. Josephine
was his best customer. But the glories
of the first empire only lasted ten
years. Moll found himself out in the
cold when the Bourbons returned. His
son gam bled away ct the PslaiS Royal
the fortune made in business.
The old man, poor and broken
hearted, went back to Alsace with
nothing but the pair of coronation
boots. But they served him in good
stead. The place was anti-Bourbonian,
and gave him a pension. He left the
boots to the commune in sign of graft
tude. They were kept in glazed case
at the mayoralty. But Sedan and the
fall of Strasbure cured the communal
councillors of Bonapartism, and the
historical relics were thrown out. A
villager picked them up and carefully
preserved them. When he died thew
were, with his other chattels, brought
to the hammer.-London Truth.

A BIG SHIPMENT OF SCOTCH OATS.

Oh. Lawrence, the enterprising Ell

of their products, and Mr.. Lawrence
buys all his goods in large quantities
and is therefore enabled to sell to his
customers at wholesale prices. Those

Are the islands worth it? Twenty

heads bowed In grief, are not alone

friends of every Kausas boy pierced
by an insurgent bullet are not the
only ones who believe not. Every
man and woman who reads daily the
list Of dead cabled from Manila, a
list in which Kansas contributes free
ly OF its most gallant blood, is set to
thinking. They see the reckless and
appalling expenditure of life and
treasure in an attempt to bestow
liberty and enlightenment on an in.
ferior, alien race that neither wants
such blessings nor is capable OF &C.
cepting them. They see this done
for the advancement OF the "com-
mercial interests" of the country.

of small group of millionaires.
Considering these things they arrive
at the inevitable conclusion that

best thing for the government to do
is to devote its energy and wealth to-
ward making the United States of

To the Public,

1t is with regret that l feel com.
PEELED to refer to the sudden depart
ure from the state, of Lyman Naugle
late editor and proprietor of the
VOICE. His action has resulted in
serious trouble in his family and
caused his wife to take action in Tire
courts to protect her interests. Mrs.
Naugle has sued for alimOny, but not
divorce. While | have suffered by
his actions still my losses are nuthing
10 comparison to the sorrow that has
stricken his wife, and | take this
opportunity to extend my sympathy
in this hour Of trial.
Why Naugle left, is unknown to
me, and while his conduct is most
reprehensible and injurious to ME l
have nU criticism to offer. His friends
throughout the county are more
numerous, and they are more com
petent TO pass an opinion than |.
These unfortunate circumstances
have thrown on my shoulders the full
management of the VOICE, and it is
with a deep sense Of the weight of
the responsibility that l undertake
1t. AS heretofore, the VOICE will be
paper ''of the people, with the peo-
pie and for the people" 1t intends
to undertake more ambitious tasks.
to strike out boldly and fearleSsly for
what it believes to be the right. 1t

punish, its policy is to cham pion
measures not men. A man wearing
the mantle of party may not rest
confident Of being championed by the
VOICE unless he can prove individual
worth as well as his right to wear the
garb that should only shield honest
men.
The VOICE is first, last and all the
time, fatty and unQaifedly for the
Interests of its patrons, the taxpay
ers of Sumner county; for good roads
and economical government, and a
capable administration of the coun-
ty'S affairs. The love | have for
those principles and journalism, will
be my incentive in making the paper
more interesting than before. take
this opportunity for thanking the
many subscribers who have hasteued
to assure me OF their continued sup
port since this trouble arose. | am
indebted to them, one and all, and by
hustle, fair and honest work, will
endeavOr to show my appreciation.
ln conclusion l would say that
Naugle's greatest sin is toward his
wife and family; but far be it from
me to Judge him. can only say that
In my heart | wish that he might see
the error of his way, that he would
come back to his home, that this un-
happy trouble would be smoothed
over, and the mother, son and father
be reunited. Respectfully yours,
