dentally support our institutions.
A little work done by an ener-
getic committee under the aus
pices perhaps Of our Board of
Trade, would accomplish the
whole. Our church could put up
Booths here and there, in which
would be offered the usual and
unusual articles sold to the un-
wary at bazaars. The Fraternal
organizations could have side
shows by day an d night and per-
haps professions that would re-
bound to their credit. The E.
2. & N. Il. band and orchestra
could do their separate work
and it goes without saying that
the Railway Club will be there
with the goods. Well advertis-
ed and the scheme would do a deal
of good. Strenuous, trumpet
tongued advertising, publicity
and energetic work in this direc-
tiOn will do something.
Sincerely
CHAS. J. FINGER.

THAT GAG LIBEL Law"
A Correct View Of the Law by
''UnCle Billy" in Ration Ran

- SSAASSS fASW " sA@S @S-S" ~
s'UnCle Billy" in Ration Ran
ge.
Uncle Billy" in the Ration
Range, puts the matter of the
"libcl law, y recently enacted by
the Thirty-sixth Legislative As
sembly by a nine-tenths' major
ity vote and signed by the Gov
ernor, very plainly and correctly
when he says:
THE only measure oflast week
that attracted much attention to
the solons at Santa Fe was the
passing of the libel act.
. 1t has been attacked as a
press gag law and as an attempt
to muzzle the press and shield
guilty officials.
"Inasmuch as the law simply
makes a newspaper keep within
the limits Of truth and decency
and say about people what they
know and can prove to be true,
can see no curtailing of the lib
critics of the press.
AS a matter Of fact the press
today takes quite too many lib
critics with peoples regulations.
It is practically blackmail in it's
lowest form. There are one or
two papers here in New Mexico
that have in the past said and
charged things about Governor
Otero, Senator Andrews and
others that were absolute lies
and without the shadow of foun-
dation, and they must have
known it when they wrote it.
These irresponsible individuals,
without a dollar in the world at
stake, without a reputation to
lose, deliberately tore mems
characters to pieces in mere
wantonness. They would have
not dared say what they traduc-
ed. But they used the power Of
the press to vilIify and black
guard in a way that should dis
gust every decent citizen.
There is little danger Of the
law injuring any man or paper.
They are merely placed on the
same plane with other citizens,
held responsible for what they
say
If certain papers in this Terri
tory that are now suffering with
softening of the head (not BRAIN
can be made to realize that com.
mon integrity and decency in .
newspaper make for its success
the law will have accomplished
wonders.

MILLIONS IN ASHES
New Orleans Stuyvssant Docks
and Illinois Central Terminals
Burned.

New Orleans, La, Feb. 26.-
Fire involving millions of dollars
of loss in physical property, and
that strikes a temporary blow to
the immense export trade Of New
Orleans, swept the river front
tonight and wiped out the vast
freight terminals Of the Illinois
Central Railway, known as the
Stuyvesant docks.
Nearly a dozen squares Of mod
ern wharves and freight sheds,
two magnificent grain elevators,
hundreds of loaded cars and vast
quantities of freight, including
10000 bales of cotton, were de-
stroyed, with q large number Of
small residences.
The fire was still raging fur
iously at midnight, at which
time it had almost reached the
upper end of the Illinois Central
property.
1t has not been determined
whether there has been any loss
of life.
The ocean-going shipping
seems to have escaped serious
damage.
A number of iremen and en-
ployes of the docks we're injured.
Actual estimates of the losses
are impossible tonight, though
they may exceed 5000, 10000.
At midnight more than nine
squares of the terminals had been
completely destroyed, and it
seemed unlikely that the fire
would be checked until it reach
ed Nopoleon avenue, which is a
very broad street.
During the fire a heavy wind
blew and the blaze was of indies.
cribable fury, carrying brands tc
great distances, moving back the
crowds of sightseers.
Immense pieces Of corrugated
iron, torn from the sides Of the
upper elevator, were carried
through the air as. if they were
feathers and, dropping in every
direction; constantly endanger.
ed the lives Of firemen and spec.
tators.
Aside from the tremendous
loss involved in the destruction
of property, the fire is calamity
to New Orleans in the temporary
abatement of the immense port
business of the Illinois Central
particularly in the matter d
grain shipments.

SIR
1t is now definitely known and
universally realized that Alamo
gordo is coming place, q city of
beauty, lasting worth and health.
1t is time to do something cal
culated to show the world that
we are more than doing we'll.
We must show ourselves as a city
with a community of interests.
/ will show what / mean.
To one who is interested in en-
tertainments and public events,
it is a matter Of surprise how
many displays are given by the
different associations in town
which always are well patroniz-
ed. I do not think that an en-
tertainment has been given by
church or Fraternal organization
within the past four months that
has not realized a considerable
sum of profit. More are announ-
ced and will likewise succeed.
But these entertainments are
really paid for by our citizens.
In this respect, we somewhat re.
semble the islanders who made
. good living BY taking III each
Others washing. Let Us solidify
and concentrate in a grand en-.
tertainment with the double
purpose Of setting forth the bene
fits Of our town and fostering
Interior motives upon the pockel
books 81 our neighbors.
The plan Is simple. We couIs
have grand Street Fair and ii
