Having brought the Taft-Diaz
meeting and the International
celebration to a successful ter
mination, Ell Paso has taken a
hitch in it's belt and started in to
put the finishing touches to the
preparations for the Ell Paso fair
and Exposition which is to be held
November first to seventh.
AS important to the agricultural
mining and industrial resources
of the southwest as the Taft-Diaz
meeting was to the diplomatic
relations of the United and Mex
leo, the Ell Paso Fair is to be an
exhibition of the natural and ac-
quired resources of the section
West of the Pecos known as
the Great Southwest. Displays of
every variety of products of that
section will be on display at the
Fair, and the several acres OF
ground will be covered by these
exhibits. In addition to display of
natural resources, the El Paso
Fair offers the rancher, mining
man and cattle raiser an dnex-
celled opportunity to view and
inspect the latest improvements
in machinery and live stock breed
ing. The display of mining and
agricultural machinery at the
Fair will be from all parts of the
country, while the live stock ex-
hibit will include cattle, sheep
swine and horses of all breeds
Special rates on railroads have

CHILDREN MUST
| BE VA66lNATEO
County Superintendent Calls At
tention of Patrons to
the Law

This Office is in receipt of a
Circular letter from Territorial
Superintendent Clark calling our
attention to the law concerning
the vaccination of children in
attendance in the public schools
of the Territory.
Chapter 103 laws of 1907 and
Chapter II of the laws of 1901,
provides that all children of
school age in each county Of the
Territory shall be vaccinated
against small pox.'
Following is the substance of
Mr.. Clark's letter to county
superintendents, which in the
main quotes from the laws gov
erning vaccination.
] Each teacher of the public
school shall deny admittance to
the school of all children not so
vaccinated, each child shall have
a statement from some reputable
physician licensed to practice in
the Territory certifying that the
child has been properly protected
from small pox by vaccination.
The certificate must state spe
cifcally that the child has been
effectively vaccinated within the
last five years previous to the
date of entering school or, that
child has been vaccinated either
wit h or without pronounced
effect, within a period of twelve
months previous to entering
school.
1T is the duty of the teacher
to make a report to the County
Superintendent at the beginning
of the year giving the number
of children who have been vacci-
mated within the past year and
the number of children present
ing certificates showing success
full vaccination within a period
of five years. This list is to be
accompanied with list of par
ents or guardians who refuse or
fail to have their children vac
cinated.
''The fine imposed, upon con-
viction, for noncompliance with
this law is not less that $25 nor
more than $10O, or Imprisonment
as provided by law.
Vaccination may be performed
by any physician or by the coun-
ty health officer. The expense
of vaccination for INDECENT chill
dren is met as provided in Sec.
30 Chap. 1O3, laws of 1905.
I'VE, as school teachers and
superintendents should be the
ones to be on the alert for any,
thing tending to build up the
health of the community and it is
to us that is imposed the duty of
urging that this particular part
of the law be complied with.
The directors of the several dis
tricts are supposed to cooperate
with teachers and superinten-
dents in enforcing the law. |
am of the opinion that we will
have no trouble along this line if
we use a little tact in present
ing the necessity of vaccination
upon the people of our respective
districts. We do not want to
take anything to court.

Cutting SGrape

hearing before Justice Wasson,
in which Geo. A. Humberd is ac-
cused of assault with a deadly
weapon with intent to murder,
the alleged assault having been
upon the person Of ]. P. Dun
lazy. The case was called or
Monday afternoon, F. F. Jen
nings representing the defend
ant. and G. R. Easley the prose
cution. After taking the testi-
mony Of Mr.. Dunlavy and cross
examination, a message was re-
ceived from District Attorney
Abbott Of Santa Fe that he
would be down on the evening
train to represent the Territory
whereupon an adjournment was
taken until six o'clock. On ac-
count of the illness of the wife
of the Justice, a continuance
was taken until $50 Tuesday
morning. At the opening Of
court Tuesday morning, counsel
for the defense, asked permission
!
of the court to discontinue the
hearing, practically waving pre-
liminary examination, asking the
court to fix the amount Of bail
for his client to appear before
the Grand Jury. Bail was fixed
in the sum of $3.50.
1t appears that the trouble a.
rose over the water proposition
at Mountainair. Some years ago,
the Abo Land Company, owners
of the townsite of Mountainair,
had a we'll drilled on the town
site, something over three-hun-
dred feet deep, S. H. Pickens,
now Of this place doing the
work, Upon the coming of the
Santa Fe Railroad, arrangements
were made with the Abo Land
Company for the use of part OF
the water from the well, the
townsite company reserving a
portion thereof for the use of its
patrons It h ose who purchased
lots and made homes on the
townsite. For a time the water
was being used by anybody in
that part of the country, free of
any expense. The land company
decided that they could not
afford to furnish all with free
water, and through Mr., Dun
lavy as president. posted no
tice on the we'll, to the effect that
the water was free for stock
and domestic purposes to all
persons holding title from, the
Abo Land Company on the town
site of Mountainair. *** All
others desiring water see Mana
ger of the Abo Land Company
at store of w. M. Mccoy & Co. .
Notices stating the price to be
charged for water as twenty
cents per barrel or six barrels
for ole dollar, were also mailed
to a number of persons residing
on the townsite of Mountainair,
holding adverse possession there
to, who had been in the habit of
securing their water at this well.
On the first of October Mr.
Dunlavy and Mr.. Humberd met
at the well, the latter having re-
ceived one of the notices. He
asked Mr., Dunlavy to read the
notice to him, claiming he could
not. AS soon as the reading was
finished, Humberd proposed pay
ing Dunlavy at once, and struck
him with a blacksnake whip.
Dunlavy defended himself with
his fists, and apparently was
getting the better of the fray
when Humberd drew a knife
and cut Dunlavy in the left side,
the knife cutting through vest,
trousers, shirt, drawers and un-
dershirt, making an ugly wound
in the flesh. Dunlavy started at
once for DIR, Blacks office for
treatment.
This is the gist of Mr., Dun
laws testimony. Just what evil
