AS TO HAsKIN's LETTERS.

FL Paso. Texas, Jan. s. 1910.
Editor FL Paso Herald:
1 have followed Frederick J. Has
kin's articles with interest all along:
but he has a tendency to put on "ap-
pearances." ii seems They read with a
tone of detailed accuracy that inspires
confidence; but my confidence has been
shaken by several little errors that have
appeared from time to time. I have
passed them over as petty errors of
more or less careless statement on his
part or mistakes of the printer; bu+
they are growing suSpiciOusly numer-
Gus.
Yesterdays article speaks of the
Nicara guanS as Icing a "counteroar.
of Hannibal selling public places
in Rome while yet without its
walls" Possibly hannibal did this:
but the story OF this real estate deal at
Rome is the other way round. Hannibal

travelling all the time. And think of
sum,noning an indicted editor to any

whether they will make those 500 lock

WHAT is HIS COMPLAINT.

Editor Ell Paso Herald:
1 would like to know why it is that
the government allows its employees to
disturb peaceable citizens. l should
think ii was high time for them 10 take
measures TO stop their soldiers from
annoying people. For years l have
been bothered pretty near to death by
negroes, and some high officials. who
were white men stationed at Fort Bliss.
and just cannot stand it any longer
1 wish TO make this statement in one
of our daily papers. so that the proper
authorities may see it. and I would like
them to give their attention 70 the mat
ter as soon as possible. Yours respect
fully, Vincent Del Bueno
All South Stanton Street.
The writer fails to state how he has
been bothered by these men. There have
been no negro soldiers at Fort Bliss
for several years
