proach among the people and it will
not be supported now or hereafter, d

It will take $500 or $4,000 to do the

raised at once by q committee appoint

funds of the chamber proper cannot be
used for any such purpose rs this, they
being set aside for running expenses
exclusively. and matters OF permsn-
emit nature. Every business man In the
city understands perfectly that he Is
expected to contribute his share to-
ward the entertainment of any great
convention that may come here. But
some of the rulers of the chamber OF

against the manifest interests Of the
city of Ell Paso, and they should be
shown their duty and urged to do ii

Money is wanted, in large amounts.
Plans for this thing have been going
on for six for seven months. The whole
town has been fully cognizant OF all the
arrangements through the public
press. There is no excuse for ignor-
ance.

ia liberal on occasion. But there is .
limit beyond which our people cannot
go in putting up money for such pur-
poses as this. Now comes along a

The chamber of com MERGE aud the
city are entirely and irrevocably COM
mitted to this thing. Great quantities
of printed matter have been circulated
all over the state, in Mexico. and New
Mexico, under authority from the
chamber. Large promises have been
made, to break which would give Ell
Paso such a black eye all over the
Southwest that We might as we'll give
up all i'd ca of getting any more con-
ventioas. We must do about twice as
much as we have promised to do, In
order to show our entirs good faith.
But it will take money to do it, and the
time is very short in which to act.
The chamber of commerce was or
ganized partly for just such work. To
it the people look for leadership In all
things making for the public good. It's
policy must be broad and liberal, rs far
as may be without running the cham =
Der into debt, which is never a good
plan. Senseless auibbling over trivial
matters, suchas has char acterized some
recent meetings of the board OF
control. ought to give way to discussion
that really has for lite end the good Of
the city and all it's people.
There is no other organization that
can take care of these things, and an

not be half SO effective. The cham Der

Only twelve days remain before the
seven hundred Texas teachers and the
twice seven hundred of their friends
will begin to pour into the city. 1t is
time that all petty wrsne ling about per-
sonal matters and questions OF mere
detail of administration we're stopped.
1t is most disheartenipg to one who
really has the welfare of Ell Paso at
heart to notice the hippant and alto
gether unworthy way in which a few OF
our business men sregard the whole
matter. 1t would be perhaps chart
table to ascribe their Indifference to
an inability to realize the enormity of
the problem which we have to meet.
For many months, years In fact, Ell
Paso has been working to get some
sort of . crowd here. There have been
propositions for carnivals, great cele-
brations, and meetings of various
sorts. Most of these have come to
naught. But At last. through the ef-
forts of Superintendent Putnam OF the
city schools, and the cooperation OF the
school board and the city council, FL
Paso secured the annual convention OF
the Texas State Teachers association.
Here we have the crowd coming.
They are knocking at the door already.
There will be thousands of them. The
teachers themselves will form but .
small part of the whole number of
visitors. We have the crowd we have
been working for SO long. And now
what do the people of Ell Paso propose
to do with it?
Plans have been prepared for an
elaborate series of entertainments.
The presence of such large number
of orderly pleasure seekers will be OF
the greatest benefit to the city, espe-
cially at q time of year when the
natural tendency Of business is to fsll
off. The cut rate war of the railroads
Is one of the greatest things that could
have happened TO Ell Paso. With q
fat rate of five dollars all over Texas,
there ia no telling what an enormous
crowd will come here TO turn around
and see the sights.

Says TayIOr>Put Up The Money

Refuses to Deal With Negroes,
But Demanded a White r1an
To DO The Killing.

Georgetown, KY, Aug. A SEN
sational statement, signed and cor
rected by Henry E, Youtsey, is in
the possession of the attorneys for
the prosecution. In it he makes a
clean breast of his connection with
the Goebel murder, admits having
offered 81 200 for the murder ol
Goebel, and says that when he
went to Taylor for $500 more to get
Hockersmith to commit the crime
Taylor said: I'LL BE DAMNED
IF l WILL AGREE TO BIND
MYSELF TO NEGROES. F."
Later on Taylor said that if any
one was to kill Goebel it would have
to be a white man, before he be-
came a party to the scheme.
This statement has been in the
possession of the prosecution for
weeks and the lawyers now divulge
it on account of an agreement
which they claim has been made
between the attorneys for Powers
and the counsel for Youtsey.

COMING TO TERMS.
Chinese Offer to Deliver the
Ministers At Tein Ssin.
Conflicting Stories From Pekin,
But No Recent News From
The Invasion.

Washington, Aug. 6.-According
to an imperial edict, issued August
2, China has come to the terms
laid down by the United States.
Free communication with the Min
listers has been ordered, and they
have been invited to leave Pekin
for Tien Tsin at their pleasure.
Gen. Yung Lu has been assigned to
command picked escort and is to
be held personally responsible for
their safety. This much comes from
and press reports, and the
Ministers are not heard from di-
rect. In striking contrast with this
news also comes press and consul
lar reports that the Chinese have
begun fortifying in front of the Brit
ish legation; that the transmission
of food to the legationers has been
stopped that Gen. Iii Ping
Heng, who commands the hostile
troops, besides ordering the execu-
tion of numerous pro-foreign Chi
nese, has impeached Ii Hung
Chang and Liu Kun Yu, Viceroy of
Nankin, for maintaining communi-
cation with the Boxers. The adj
vance of the relief column from
Tien Tsin began last Thursday,
but there is no news of its progress.

Wooten Voos was his name and he
was waiter in one of thea Dawson
hotels. He had been to a c1ke walk
and had walked in female costume.
He became intoxicated later in the
night, and went to sleep on the
railroad track and was struck by a
train.

Deboe Knew About 1t.

Youtsey said that he then became
disconsolate, but met United States
Senator Deboe that night and told
him of the arrangement he had
made to have Goebel assassinated.
"That will not be necessary, y
was Deboe's reply, according to
Youtsey. 81 think l have fixed it
so that Berry will be seated in the
Legislature. When that is done
the backbone of the opposition will
be broken. Goebel cannot hope to
win with Van Meter out of the way.

morning of Friday, January 25.
The shot was to be fired from the
Office of the Secretary of State and
the murderers were to escape
