BREACH OF FAITH

FL PasU Times Gives Up the
Struggle and Publishes Story
on Authority From ST.
Louis.

While this city, in common with
other parts Of the southwest. has
learned by experience there's many
slip tween the cup and the lip, still on
the sanitarium matter, there is every
reason to believe that it's all over
but the shouting, and that the shout.
ing will begin next Wednesday even.
Ing. There seems TO be no doubt but
Las Vegas has been definitely chosen
beyond possibility of consideration for
the location of the fraternal city.
A number of papers, claiming inside
information have announced positively
that the city to be named at the ban
Quet tomorrow evening is Las Vegas.
Not much dependence, however. is to
be placed in an article, accompanied
by large illustration of The Monte
yuma which appeared on the front
page of Sundays Globe-Democrat
1t is possible that the sanitarium
managers in ST. Louis may have an
thorized the use of the article. but 1t
is more likely that it was published
In violation of every rule of newspaper
etiquette.
The Globe Democrats article, which
was sent from Las Vegas, was a part
of syndicate story which was to
have heen held in confidence until
after the formal announcement had
been made. The willingness of a met
ropolitan newspaper TO break faith
with its correspondents for the pur-
pose of getting scoop. goes to show
that the sanitarium. is held as of great
Importance. A big newspaper cam
paign had been started with the ap-
proval of the sanitarium managers.
and from Las Vegas and st. Louis, as
soon as the announcement is made,
II is the intention to release to the
morning papers in every part of the
United States. an illustrated story
prepared in advance. covering not
only the facts concerning the sanitar-
ium, which were pirated by the Globe,

all was quiet within. A good sized
crowd assembled at the station to see
the president off, but no demonstra-
tion was made when 1t became known
the president was sleeping. Preceding
the presidents special by ten minutes
went pilot train consisting of an
engine and one coach. This pilot train
will lead the special to Julesburg,
when another pilot win take its place
and run to Omaha. Track walkers
and inspectors were ordered out at
daylight all along this division of the
Union Pacific and every precaution
was taken to insure the presidents
safety on the eastward journey.

speak with authority
The big sanitarium for The care OF
consumptives 10 be quilt and maintain
ed by the National Fraternal associa'
ton will be located at Las Vegas.
This announcement comes from st,
Louis. The committee which has
twice visited the southwest and in
yestigated conditions and carefully
weighed the advantages Offered by the
different places bidding for this inst,.
tuition having arrived at their decis-
ion, are now arranging for a big ban
ouet In St. Louis on the 10th, to which
eight hundred invitations have been
sent out and at which time the formal
announcement of the selection Of Las
Vegas will be announced.
The fight for the location of this
great institution has been rather in.
teresting between Las Vegas, Deming
and AlamogordO. between which three
places the contest finally narrowed
down. In the beginning there were
some five or six other cities In this
vicinity bidding for the institution.
among them Ell Paso. which later on
withdrew from the contest.
Las Vegas, the successful city, has
donated a million dollars worth Of
property to the association and this,
while not controlling factor, Is
thought to have much to do with the
selection.
The announcement that Las Vegas
has won will be received with much
chagrin. to say nothing Of disappoint-
ment. by the people OF Deming and
Alamogordo. as both of these cities
were very hopeful and had looked up
on Las Vegas as being practically out
of the race. In the fight that Deming
and Alamogordo made against Las We
gas, they called attention to its ex-
treme high altitude and cold climate
in the winter. When the sanitarium
committee was here little over
week ago, one of the members in
speaking of the contest between Las
Vegas, Deming and Alamogordo, said
that the fact that Las Vegas stood
ready to donate million dollars
worth of property would cut no i'm
portant figure in the matter of decid-
ing upon climatic advantages of the
different places.
The people of Deming and Alamo
gordo have worked hard and almost
ceaselessly in their efforts to secure
the sanitarium. Deming thought that
her limitless supply of pure water
and her sunshine aid pure. dry air
made that place the best Of all loca-
tions in the southwest for sanitar-
ium for the cure of consumptives.
The people of Alamogordo offered
site in La Luz canyon. located near
that town on the road to Clondcroft,
which was certainly an excellent spot
for sanitarium, the climate being
ideal the year around. Like the Dem
ing people, the AlamOgordians had
worked hard and felt almost certain
that they had the fight won.
