Editor, THE OASIS
 Tn fifteen years Fl Paso has been transformed from more or less crude frontier outpost to cosmo- politan up-to-date city. Some ten trunk lines, $5,000,000 bank de- posits. $4,OO0,O0O school property, and wideawake population of some thirty odd thousand people tells the story.
 Perhaps as good a way as any to guage a community and it's true temper is it's capacity for dealing with conventions of assembled strangers. It requires public spirit and earnest efforts to secure these; it takes a double pull and pull together to see to it that when the convention is finally there that it's members return home, agreed: that our late hosts were all and more than we expected therefor we will go again to the very next convention that said city, III this case, Fl Paso, may hold at any time in the future" Chicago of twenty-five years ago knew the secret of holding successful conven- tions and it paid her very we'll in- deed. Los Angeles is profting by the old example of Chicago, and now El Paso, for her size, means to become the Los Angeles conven- tion city of the interior Southwest. This is exactly a case where all parties to the occasion are equally benefited, It is good for the hosts; it Is decidedly good for the guests.
 Because of this El Paso is now already we'll under way with the preparation for a Mining Con- gress" to supplement the Irrigation Congress so successfully conducted in her midst. It is earnestly to be hoped that this Mining convention will arouse the many intelligent and capable men residents of the International border line, who, strangely enough, did not seem to perceive that their own pursuit of mining could be and will be great ly facilitated by the development of irrigation possibilities in their respective localities.
 But happily in this case our en- terprising fellow citizens of Fl Paso are not willing to sit quietly down and await the arrival of the miners on either side of the great mining

 II was the very great privilege of lhe writer Co address lbe Chamber loi Commerce of El Paso in modest attempt to outline the present status and the future outlook for the mining industry of the border line, with some specific emphasis, perhaps, on Sonora. Such infor- nation as was at our disposal was accompanied with maps. This was supplemented with a discriminate ing distribution of 200 copies of the Hermosillo folder and some POO copies of the Land of Navarit' published by the Chamber of Mines of Nogales, both edited ond issued under the able auspices oI THE OASIS editorial sanctum. This was on November 23rd, just one week after the close of the Irriga- ton Congress. The writer knew that the Mining Congress was a year ahead but concluded it was none to early to make a bid as il we're for attention to our own min eral kingdom. That | did moi underrate the intelligence nor the enterprise of my audience will be apparent from the following. In a two column report furnished by l the El Paso HeraId December 7tl of an enthusiastic meeting of the 1 Chamber of Commerce on that l date, 1t Is stated that by as much as El Paso has the secured for its ] guest the United States Mining \ Congress the ensuing fall season il is high time for Fl Paso business men to see that we become person ally acquainted, at the earliest possible with the many mining ] localities constituting as 1t were our next door neighhors and some 1 what neglected An excursion tt 1 these neighbors was definitely de
 cided upon. On motion of MT. J
 A. Smith, president of the Cham
 Der of Commerce, a special com
 mittee of prominent business mer
 to make all detail arrangements
 was appointed. The excursion il
 expected to start January eighth
 It definitely includes among othe places Nogales, Tombstone, Herm

 It is respectfully submitted to al
 concerned that this appears like al
 opportunity worthy of being i'm
 proved on all along the line. Tn
 Chamber of Mines, in Nogales; tn varied mining and business inter ests respectively in Magdalena Hermosillo and 1uaymas could, s , it would appear to your subscriber make use of this occasion to opresen their respective merits. It is no

 to be visited by an aggregation C / some sixty odd up-to date bushes men. That is the number indicat } cd in the report above referred tc

A "White" Representative.

Holly News; s. L. White. Re
publican candidate for representa-.
tive of this district, received the
unanimous nomination OF the con
vention down at Trididad last
week. The district is known as IL
''fOat" and was created by the
Democratic gerrymander which
attempted to so form every dis.
trict i'll the state to make them
safely Democratic. The district is
composed OF Prowers, Baca and
Las Animas counties. The inten.
ton of the deal was to overcome
the Republican majnries in the
agricultural 81 clions by cutting up
such territory and attaching it to
the large Democratic counties.
The results have not been salts
factory to anybody. People would
not stand tor such infamy and in
justice and there has been re
volt OF the voters resulting in de
feat to the Democratic nominees
in most instances.
Mr.. Wine. the nominee, is well
and favoral'ly known in the Ark
ansas valley. lie is known as one
'ot the solid business men of east
4rn Colorado. He personally CON
ducts a large mercantile establish
ment at Holly, and has been one
of the chief promoters of the
towns interests, having been one
OF the first citizens of the town and
Holly's first mayor. He has knowl-
edge of law and the gift of speech.
He has given the needs OF the dis
trict considerable study and has
the courage of his convictions.
His reputation for integrity is Of
the best, and so far no one, re-
gardless of partv, has been able TO
present any valid objections to
him. Mr.. White would make an
able, conscientious representative
and render his constituents elf
cient and satisfactory service, and
we commend him to the people Of
Las Animas and Baca counties as
well as to the people Of our own
county.

HIS DEATH BLOW PAID TO FAL LSIFY
Governor Chairman Odells
Committee Sends Out
Agents to Falsely
Accuse Parker.

ES0PUS, Oct 3, 1904:--It was learn
ed yesterday through a report from
Charles NJ Preston, president OF the
Ulster County Democratic Committee,
that Governer-C Chairman Odell's commit
tee is using dastarily campaign methods
to injure Judge Parker. Mr.. Preston
called upon the Democratic candidate
and in the course of his visit told him
that travelling agents, abundantly sup
piled with money, have been circulating
through the towns and villages employing
men to disseminate scandal, rumors and
stsoriess about Mr.. Parker. One OF the
agents in Ulster County last week is
said to have displayed $500, which, he
said. was an advance he had received
for his services.
Wheneveh possible a member is Sc
cured in every labor organization,
grange, lodge, church, benevolent asso-
citation and the like, who is instructed
to circulate rumoreds scandal by word
of mouth.
In labor organiza tions the false re-
port circulated was that Mr.. Parker is
against the eight-hour law and decided
against it as judge.
Among farmers the story was that
Judge Parker is the friend of the trusts.
To farm laborers the tale was that Judge
Parker said dollar a day is enough
for any laborer. In church circles
scandals of another nature are circu-
lated.
That there could be such an organized
effort seemed at first incredible. These
stories are so absurd that the Republi-
can paper even prints them. Judge Par
kers decisions in the Court of Errors and
Appeals are just the opposite OF what
these stories say. He upheld the eight
hour law. and in the sweil-known Blue
stone case he decided strongly against
trusts. He pays the best wages on his
farm that are paid in Ulster County.
If these rumors and scandals We're
made publicly in manner that they
could be answered it would be easy to
demolish them. But they are spread,
not by printed text, but by word of
mouth. Already they have been heard
as far as Buffalo.
Judge Parker returned this morning
to his headquarters at the Seville in
New York,
