Must Tolerate Vice.

Every practical man knows that the
saloons in this town are nearly all kept
closed on Sunday, and that the Sunday
closing law is enforced as we'll as it
can be. Substantially the same is true
of gambling If man has a strong
thirst. he viii hunt till he finds a
means for satisfying it. The same is
true of a craving for gambling. There
could be no enforcement of law strict
enough to stamp cut gambling and
Sunday drinking.
Every PRACTICAL man knows, too,
that there is a class of resorts which
must be tolerated. Situated as it is in
the center Of a great mining region.
whence scores and hundreds of miners
and other rough men flock into town,
its streets would not be safe for re-
spectacle women If there were not dis
tricts where resorts We're tolerated.
That is a phase of the question that
every public official must consider.
i think that the recommendation by
the committee that an ordinance be
passed to keep messenger boys away
from the resorts is a good one. No
minor should be allowed in the vicin-
lty of such places on any pretext. The
effect upon messenger boys or other
youths of being brought into contact
with such conditions is simply ruinous.

Under the administration of Gen
Sam Houston and his ad Sisers Texas
wa enabled to maintain a somewhat
pre- arious existence for nine years
when its petition to be taken into the
American Union was granted and its
troubles brought to an end. Although
1t hss heen less than fifty years since
South Canon was in Texan territory
and only sixty-seven years since the
site 1t occupies was in Mexico, IL is
doubtful whether there is anybody
living in Fremont county that can
remember when the country on the
south side of the river was anything
else than American property.
During the brief period OF the inde-
pendence OF Texas it made \ brave
showing from 4 territorial standpoint.

Central American states and any one
Of half score OF German duchies, il
never cut much Of figure in interna-
tional affairs and It is extremely doubt
ful whether Il would have been capable
of maintaining its integrity had there
been any considerable effort made to
subvert II; certain it is that its citizens
knew but little OF that narrow strip
belonging to the republic which ran
northwards from Salida to the 4S de-
gree of north latitude, nor did they
care for it for that matter.
When the Republic OF Texas merged
its identity into the American Union
the object Of its founders was accom-
plished and the protection of its people
assured; condition that could hardly
have been upheld under an autonomy
its own. The western line OF Texas
during the regime we have been trying
to describe included the major part OF
the territory of New Mexico Santa Fe
and Albuquerque being well within the
confines OF the republic.

Not Closed Down.

The report that the Comstock mine,
belonging to the Rito Alta Copper
Company at Altarito, had closed down
indefinitely, is without foundation of
any kind. A letter from Superintend-
ent Comstock few days ago says that
il has been the custom there for the
last five years to lay off the surface
men during the winter months. and
that the rumor about closing down
probably grew out Of the fact that the
surface men were laid off on the list
inst. till next spring. The company
has had forty-four men on its pay rolls
all summer, twenty-five Of whom are
now working. The Comstock mine has
been running for five years, during
which the company has never lost
shifts work and never missed pay
day. The company is in fiourishing
and is increasing the scope
of its operations as rapidly as circum-
stances will permit.

ls45, the Republic of Texas exercised

The history Of Texas as an indepen-
