w. A. LEONARD HERE
He Stuck Type On the Herald Near.
Iv Twenty Years AGO.

w. A. Leonard who established the
Silver City Enterprise and a few years
ago was one of the best known news
paper men in New Mexico and Arizona
arrived in FL Paso this morning from
Angleton. Texas. where he has been
living for some years past. Herald
reporter asked him what he thought of
Ell Paso. Why" said he. lit is a
marvel. FL Paso is today by all odds
the best town in the state and the
people generally recognize it as such.
In ten years il will push Houston and
San Antonio for first place. 1t is de-
cidedly the most enterprising town in
the state. and this fact is generally
recognized. And your newspapers
seem to lead in enterprise.
Il was connected with The Herald in
1881 when il was run by McKie &
DeaIy. II was a long primer paper and
i set all the type and run the paper
on on a hand press. Great changes
have since occurred. The paper was
printed in a little box house. the
ground of which is now occupied by a
modern three-story brick building. At
that time there were but very few
brick buildings in town.
p The development of your city has
been so rapid that very few of the old
land marks remain. FL Paso is a Won
der-a marvel-and The Herald with
its telegraph service. linotype machines
and fast presses is up at the head of
the procession"
Mr.. Leonard saved his plant out of
the wreck of the storm which recent
1y swept the gulf coast and is now in
search of location for the newspaper
business. He will locate in Arizona
or New Mexico and the press gang will
give him a royal welcome.
