themselves plainly manifest.
Only Il month after gambling was
closed came the Christmas season.
Many of the business men had dreaded q
general falling off, due to interference
with the false prosperity that open
gambling had engendered. On Nov.
II, 1904, 40 gambling resorts were op-
Grating openly in Ell Paso in defiance of
the law. When they were closed, Ell
Paso lost probably $50 of her population,
both men and women, including gambl-
ers. prostitutes and hangers-on. But
that year the Christmas trade in all
lines exceeded the trade of the pre-
ceding two years, Merchants reported
that there were not only more buyers,
but that more people paid cash over the
counter. Bills were collected up better
than ever before. Hundreds of small
deposit. accounts were opened at the
banks within sixty days after gambling
was closed
FROM El Paso the movement spread
all over Texas, New Mexico and Arizona
and one: tsSsh after another followed Ell
Paso's example greatly to their material
and moral betterment. -"
Since gambling was closed Ell Paso's
population has increased 80 per cent and
the assessed valuation has increased
more than 100 per cent, (from $12, OOO,-
900 to $25, 900, OOO)." - T..

DOES GAMBLING HELP A TOWN?

We often hear the remark that
gambling helps town. For this
reason, business men refuse to aid III
the efforts to abolish gambling in
Nevada. That there is nothing in that
argument is plainly shown i'll the follow
ing article written by Fl. D. Slater
editor of the FL P;so (Tcxas) Herald
We commend it TO the careful peruSal
of ElkOs business men and to every
citizen of Nevada.
conditions here up to the close of
gambling in November, 1904. were dis
graceful and disgusting to an extent
that would hardly be believed by people
not personally familiar with the facts,
and they can hardly he recalled to mind
today, owing to the tremendous change
that has taken place in the three years
since the gamblers were driven out
During 10 months of 1904 in this
city, then having less than 81, 600 in
habitants, there were II suicides, II
homicides, 81 shortages, frauds and
embellishments; which became public
and matters of court record, and 13
shootings and murtlerous assaults. A
very large proportion of. these crimes
could be traced quite directly to open
gambling. Statistics for years proceed
ing the closing of gambling show that
on basis of per 1000 population, Eel
Paso had more than four times as many
suicides and "a times us many homicides
aus the city of st. Paul; they show that
FL Paso had seven times as many kill
ings per unit of population us the city
of New York.
ut took long years of education to
bring the people of this city and especi-
ally the business community up to u
point where they recognized that the
system of licensed gambling was not
merely morally degrading and destruc-
tive, but ruinous III a business wav.
One thousand columns, or approxi-
mately Il million WORDS of editorial
matter, bearing on the subject in all it's
phases, appeared i'll the Herald during
the seven or eight years of the cam
paign of education.
The business men of Eel Paso at last
realized that wide open licensed gamb-
ling did not pay and during the fight
the dollars and cents argument was
nsed with tremendous force. OF
course, back of this there was the
Knowledge that there was going on a
Fearful sacrifice of our young men.
Another fundamental argument was
that OF respect for law. Besides being
trlghttully demoralizing to the indvid-
ual public gambling is demoralizing to
the community.

To clear up the title to the Gila Mon- ster No. and No. ? mining claims, suit was filed yesterday by the Live Oak Copper Mining & Smelling com pany against F.. P. Warrington.
 It is set forth in the complaint that the claims in question were staked out in 1905 by the defendant and later transferred to the company. The deed was never recorded and the defendant, it is alleged, still asserts claim to the property.
 The plaintiff company asks that any title Worthington may have be quieted and that they be adiadged the sole own CTS of the property.

PART C|TY THREE FEET 0FF
 IF LINE
SUTHERLAND STREET MAY BE CUT DOWN TO SETTLE DIS
 PUTES OVER PROPERTY.
MISTAKE WAS MADE YEARS AGO
PROPER ALLOWANCE NOT MADE FOR HIILY NATURE or
 CONTOUR.

Recent surveys which have been made to establish the grade on Mes quite street disclose the fact that all property in the city, east of Sutherland street, is more than three feet of the correct line, being that much too far west.
 The discrepancy is due to an incor- rect survey, made when this part of the city was laid out. To remedy tbe defect without causing the loss of thousands of dollars to property own CTS, Sutherland street will probably be narrowed. sufficiently to allow street and property lines to remain where they are.s
 This part of the city was plated in 1881 by Pendleton and Wallace. The proper allowance was not made for tne hilly nature of the land, and when an iron hub was set in the ground from which surveys could be made, and oth- CT similar marks placed at other points along Sutherland street, they were To- cated something over three feet too far west.
 Surveys which have been made since that time were often found to be in. accurate and recently the cause of the trouble was ascertained.
 The matter was called to the atten, tion of >the city council by Dr. R. G Fox. He held that the matter should be strengthened out at once, to settle disputes regarding property lines which have arisen on account of the erroi in the original survey, and the matter was discussed at length.
 It was held that Sutherland, sixty foot street, will not suffer by reason of the fact that three feet will be deduct ed from it's width. and the counci will probably order this done.
