they were kept on duty all day and all

not Allowed In Mexico.

IL view Of the interest being taken
by Texas railroad men in the double
header question it is of interest to note
that the objectionable class OF trains
are not tolerated south of the Rio
Grande. In Mexico the government
has already done what Texas 10 asked
10 do aud has forbidden their use ex-
cept in occasional cases, as to help a
train up steep grade. When 5. X.
Comfort. now agent in this city, was
trainmaster some years ago, double
headers were used until the company
was notified that such practice must
cease

A FEW THINGS
That the Citizens OF Ell paso Should
Know,

That the only way to secure up-to-
date telephone service at reasonable
prices is through competition. The
experience of some five hundred cities
throughout the United States that
have been fortunate enough to secure
competition for the old company fully
demonstrates the truth of this state
ment.

The statement that w. H. Burgess,
the old com papy's attorney, is alleged
TO have made before the chamber OF
commerce, to the effect that the par
ties that are asking for a franchise to
put in new telephone system in Ell
Paso had organized some forty COM
panies and had sold out every one of
them, is not true, and no one can pro-
duce the slightest evidence to substan-
tiste such an assertion.
That the people that are fighting the
new ompauy,t that are not directly en-
ployed by the old company, are doing
so principally through their lack OF
knowledge of the many benefits
that invariably result through CON-
petition in the telephone business.
That the citizens will not have to
use two telephones as the old company
would have them to believe. Why
should they? The new company
has almost all of the old company 5
subscribers as we'll as lot of new
ones.
That even in cities where inexperi-
enced persons have started com petitive
exchange without first securing q
large mum Der of subscribers, it is we'll
known that the gu oscribers instead of
having to pay for two phones have had
the use of two for less than the old
company originally charged for ore.
Investigation will prove the foregoing
statement to be a fsct.
That no one can give any valid rea-
son why the new company should not
be granted franchise and be allowed
to compete with the old company. The
citizens of Ell Paso will have an OPP
portunity of sharing in the profits of
the new company.
That no other city or town that has
been asked for franchise by the
PssO for one has failed to grant them q
franchise.
That owing to the antitrust law
that has just gone into effect in Texas,
it will be i'm possible for the new COM
pany to either sell out or consolidate
with the old company.
That the old company would have
the public believe that the new COM
paoy does not amount to any thing,
| but at the same time is afraid to COM
| pete with the new company and is ask
| ing the city council to stand between
| it and the new company.
That the city of Little Rock, Ark,
which is very little larger than Ell
Paso, has in use 1865 modern tele-
phones, and as good service as is had
anywhere in the United States, and at
the rate of $3.50 for business houses
and 81 90 for residences, thanks to COM
petition only.

The Hopeless Wreck of Ocean Steam
ship.
Anyone who has stood on the crowd
ed wharves of a busy seaport and
watched the departure of the great
ocean steamship must have been
thrilled with a sense of resistless power
and strength, as the mighty craft turned
her bows from the shore and began her
seaward voyage. Who, watching such
a scene, would dream that a simple
flaw in the material of small bolt
would, when caught in the fury of a
storm, render entirely useless the ma
chinery that controlled the rudder of
the ship and leave her to drift, help
less wreck, at the mercy of the waves.
Yet this is what happened q few weeks
ago in a furious storm on the North
Atlantic.
Not only so, but there are parallel
cases occurring every day around US

flaw in the human mschinery-the dis
ordered stomach-may not harm them
so long as things run smoothly, but let

overwork or worry-an emergency in
business, or troubles in the household
when every energy is needed. and the
constitution which, il sound and well,
might have easily weathered the storm,

100000 DEATHS!
FROM CHOLERA DURING THE PAST

The Germs of This Fatal Disease Are Lurk-

Hundreds of thousands of dollars have

count of the devastation among the

American Poultry Mixture. This will
cure chickens in the last stage of chol-
era and rOup, and is excellent for
gapes. DO your fowls suffer from vio-
lent diarrhoea, dropping of the wings,
stupor or excessive thirst? These are
the first symptoms of cholera. Cholera

stop to experiment with unreliable or
untried remedies. Use this mixture at
once and the sanitary measures they
recommend in connection. Don't give
the fowls up. Cholera is terrible dis
ease but this remedy cures it every
time. 1t is also guaranteed for rOup,
which can be told by hoaIse breathing,
swelled eyes, discharge at the nostrils,
resembling catarrh Fifty dollars is
offered for any case the Mixture will
not cure. If some of your fowls are
diseased. it will prevent the rest from
catching it. Try it. 1t is cheap, reli-
able and effective; scientific prepare

as any other remedy; does more good
