A MOMENTOUS ISSUE.

Today the HERALD presents COM
prehensive account of the pending
questions With regard to the voting OF
5000 worth of bonds for school pur-
poses, with reasons therefor, objec.
tions, difficulties, sndithe views OF more
THAI score of representative citiz-
ems upon this most important matter.
Nothing that has come before the
people for long time has been 90 mo-
mentous rs the issue now presented.
Many people have thought that there
Was not the slightest doubt about
the success Of the school bond
issue. Heretofore there has
been no opposition TO issuing
bonds for increasing the school accom-
modations. But IL seems that those
who have been 60 sapguine are In
error, as the interviews published In
today's paper develop q decided OPP
position to the project on the part OF
some of our heaviest taxpayers.
In the local columns the Issue is
clearly stated, so that it will not be
necessary TO 60 further into the facts
of the matter at this time. But q dis
cussion o; the best policy to pursue Is
pertinent. The interviews with citl-
zens develop two things clearly: that
some citizens have made up their
minds most positively for or against
she bond issue, while others acknowl-
edge their ignorance Of the question or
sheir failure to make up their minds. In
view of this fact, IL is fair TO presume
that there will be . concerted move
ment when the bonds are voted upon
{, kill them, and further, that II the
bonds are TO be carried, il will have
70 be done through convincing the
doubtful ones OF their necessity and
By orRsnizink the forces In favor Of the
bonds.
The address to she taxpayers Of Ell
Paso, adopted by the school board last
hight and printed on another page, IL
concise and illuminating statement Of
the needs Of the schools. Every tax
payer should do himself the justice to
read the address carefully. II he does
mot then acknowledge the need, he will
al least have something more than
prejudice 10 ground his opinions on.
There are two ways to look at the
school question. One attitude is that
of the parent, who knows how neces-
sary good soho cling is for his children
and for lis neighbours children. The

other is that of the clear headed busi-
ness N So, who sees in good schools a
sure asset, with q cash val lie to the city,
and In inefficient schools IN element
of failure and improvideuce that oper-
ates to keep many. good people from
coming to the city to invest and re-
aide.
II is to both these classes that appeal
must be made In order TO carry the
bond issue.
After reading the address OF the
school board, it must be apparent to
any body that the amount asked for,
s75, 900, lie none too large. When IL is
considered that the average school
building of ten to twelve rooms In the
larger cities costs from thirty five to
fifty thousand dollars exclusive OF the
site, and that the high school IL 10 pro-
posed to erect will in all probability
be the best school building Ell Paso
will have for many years; further,
when all the needs of additions and fit
tings, heating and plumbing and other
modern improvements, together with
the desirsbility of buying good sites
now for future use-when all these
things are taken into account the
amount OF the bonds seems small
rather than large.

THEY are having all sorts OF trouble
In Virginia trying to decide upon the
best way 20 disfranchise the negro.
Some of the people desire to follow
the example Of Mississippi, Louisisns.
and the Carolinas, and boldly shut
the negroes ous of the polls. Some are
advocating q poll tax. The latter has
the support Of the Richmond Times,
which brings out the fact that IL the
poll tax were made payable long
enough before the election, say ) ear,
there would be practically no
chance for fraud, or the use of a slush
fund. No rarty would pay negroes
poll tax so long In advance, for tie
negro might move away or change his
mind long before election. The advo-
Gates OF the plan claim that this ar
rsnRement would make It impossible
to corral the negroes and vote them In
large numbers, and would thereby
eliminate the worst feature in elections
In she south. The matter lie one In
which We too are interested, and the
solution 10 worth considering.

Bryan was beaten before, San. Jones

have before me contains II versions:
Hungarian, Greek, Dutch, Bohemian,

So far as can judge they seem to be
faithful TRANSACTIONS, particularly the
English. But 1 should think 1t would
make Sen. Jones GROSS to be called
Bryan's ''przewodca," which may be
all RICH: In Polish, but looks bad to my
untutored eye. "Amministratore,"
"Directeur," and "Styrer," are net so
ominous looking. The Hebrew has .
queer appearance of being upside down,
the tndentations being on the wrong
eide. 1t isn's real Hebrew as q matter
of fact, but merely "Yiddish," which

The American Republics.

From the Baltimore American.
The United States has been formal
~ invited by the Mexican government
to take part In an international Amer
ican congress, TO assemble At she Mex
loan capital In October, 1901. IL WAS

the American republics In . CONNER
cisl union, for the promotion of trade
Of all these countries, rs we'll as their
general Advancement. he had faith
in she ability of this country to con-
vice. the southern republics that we
had no political designs on them, but
sought their friendship, in order 90
establish closer commercial relations.
Il was thoroughly American
scheme, and worthy of Q great states-
man, but Mr.. Blaine did mot live to see
any part OF this scheme put into prac-
tice. The drst steps demonstrated the
deep rooted prejudices OF the South
Americans, as we'll IS their stubborn
jealousies toward one another. Since
then, some progress has been made.
The wisdom aud statesmsn-hip of Diaz
have greatly modified the intense
prejudices of the Mexicans, and were
Disz to live long enough, there would
be reason for hoping that they would
be removed altogether.
IL Is gratifying to note that the con-
gress will be held in she Cityof Mexico.
Had the first been held there, instead
Of In Washington, the movement for an
would be much farther
advanced. The preponderating innu-
snoe of the United States is too much
for the little republics when they
meet In this country. They must
get used to their great northern neigh
Dor before they can be expected
to act without embarrassment
ON the coil of the Uuited States. In
Mexico they will feel at their ease and
can enter upon the discussion of ques-
tions relating to their mutual welfare
as perfectly Independent states. It 10
cot supposed that very much of q prsc-
ticsl character will be accomplish at
the congress. but the way will be paved
for q better understanding and q more
honest consideration of each other. and
that In itself will be considerable

Il ts most unfortunate that this vital
question lie complicated by the ipjec-
ton of the waterworks business into
It. The confusion 1, likely 70 prevent
confederation of either case on Its
inertia. Taxpayers must endeavor to
get to the bottom of the question, and
be ready to vote intelligenily when the
day comes.
The herald is uncompromisingl ely
In favor of municipal waterworks.
There is no valid argument against
them. It has been found In practice
that even governmental corruption,
which 10 the rule in American cities
rather than she exception, does not
Offset the great advantages OF water
works owned and Administered by the
people and their direct represents
tives. But In this case the HERALD
considers that the agitation of the
waterworks question In such . way a.
TO endsnger the schools is Ill advised.
The issue OF the school bonds would
1T most defer the other project but .
few years. Al the rate the city 10
growing IL ought nos take long 70 add
the million or million and bali dollars
Of taxable values 70 the assessment
basis. When that Is done she bond
issue car be increased by another $500
900 or more.
As for the fact, upon which 30 much
stress Is laid, that the contract with
the water company runs out next
year, there IL nothing to compel the
city to make another long term coz
tract and tie itself up for an indefinite
period. With the competition that is
threatened from several quarters IL is
probable that the water company
would be glad to make . better deal
for the city than that now existing.
And finally, there would certainly be
strong opposition on the part of many
citizens and taxpayers to giving the
present city administration or another
like IL authority to spend the proceeds
OF 5000 900 bond issue in acquiring or
building wsterworks. The people
know these fellows too we'll, and when
such Q bond issue should come to
Q vote it would be fiercely
fought by opponents OF the
ring administration. No such objection
can be brought against the school
bonds, as the safeguards against job
berry are greater, and the elements OF
manipulation of stocks, bonds, and
contracts are largely eliminated or at
lesst reduced in potency.
Under the circumstances theHERALD
urges the taxpayers of the city of Ell
Paso to vote for the SO, 600 bond issue
for school purposes. and take mp the
