THING EVER,

organized during the carnival.
Each of the many secret lodges in r.
aso, numbering about fifteen, had of
ten invited their fellow members in
all the surrounding country to meet
here with them and enjoy a specially
prepared program but none of them
nave ever accepted. The carnival has
accomplished what they have failed
to do and every lodge in the city has
arranged a special program for the
carnival week that will bring many
people here hat would not be attract
ed by the other features.
The railroads and the hotels of the
city have advertised this wonderful
climate for many years but the carni
va has arranged to bring thousands
OF people here to see what the climate
is and when they return home three
times that number will heal of Ell
Paso's climate and know something
of the boundless u Of this greet
and grand section.
These things have been made posi-
BILE by cooperation and those who first
took up the matter hav themselves
been agreeably surprised at the great
results. The executive committee
took up the matter when all was new
and asked the merchants and business
men to furnish money to carry out
their plans.
Without asking a word every man
in the city and eve the people of
Juarez responded. contributed their
money and in not n case did any
man ask what would be done with
his money. Implicit confidence was
placed in the committee from the be-
ginning and all the committee feel
proud of the fact that they have sue
cessfully managed the affair and the
appropriation of the money without
the least molestation from any contrib
utter. In no case has the action of the
committee met every proposition and
disposed of i tin an agreeable way.
What the results of the carnival will
be in the future is beyond safe esti-
mate, but some of the results can al
ready be seen. The mining
ton will result in a permanently or
ganized mining exchange. a thing that
Ell Paso has needed for many years.
1t will effect the organization of an
annual live stock exhibit that will be
lasting in its results 1t will start i'm
migration this way in a way never
BEFORE seen besides form a trade al
lance with the business men of Mex
ice tn result of which can only be |
wildly estimated.
Many thousands of dollars are being
spent OF the carnival but ii will come
back a hundred fold and h prestage
gained in this big show will be felt
for years to come.

A CHRISTMAS

The F. & P. employees at this place
are greatly cheered by a greeting from
l.. S. Thorne. the third vice-president
and general nag of the road. 1t is
as follows:
All the officers of this company
join me in wishing each and every en-
ploye OF his ompaLy n their fam
lilies a pleasant and enjoyable Christ
mas. Personally. i wish to ack-
nowledgo the loyal and faithful SER
vice rendered the company and man
agement by the employs of every
grade. l. S. Thorne"
An employe of the road said today
that it being a rare thing for an Of
fetal of Mr.. Thorne's standing to treat
the employees OF the road with such
courtesy. the effect was naturally
leating and inspiring to the employees.
1t is a little thing in appearance and
it SENS hat every manager of a rail-
road hould not fail to as kindly re-
membe their employees once a year,
but it isn't many of them that do,
hence the weight Mr.. Themes greet
ing has with his employees.
