M Tucson (Ariz.) Citizen.

From tucson (Arlz-) Cltlzen-
FL Paso does well to begin the sum
mer season by an organized effort 70
extend the trade territory of the pass"
city. The trade excursion into west
Texas and eastern New Mexico should
be followed by one that would include
Arizona If The FL Paso Herald's con-
tention be sound that the merchants Of
that city can quote prices as attractive
as those quoted by Dallas, San An
tonic, Kansas City. st. Louis or Denver,
no time should be lost in going after
the trade done by these cities with
Arizona and New Mexico. But, as The
Herald remarks:
zone of the first things for us to do
if we want the trade Of these people
is to offer them a market for their
products in FL Paso, in western New
Mexico and in the towns and mining
camps Of Arizona and northern Mex
leo. We must make this their market.
before we can hope to sell them any
great proportion of the goods they
need; but, for many of their products,
this is the logical market. We depend
too much on California now, and on
Kansas City and Colorado. There is
no reason why we should not buy from
our own immediate neighbors, in
preference to sending our money lit
orally by the millions to distant cities
for food stuffs-money that never
comes back into our bailiwfck again,
but is steadily drained away TO enrich
other communities in other states.
Arizona and California should buy
their fat stock from the Pecos valley
this is the legitimate market and
gateway for livestock traffic. from the
easterly part of our trade circle into
the west, and the present eastwardly
movement of livestock, poultry. eggs
and creamery products from the PecoS
basin and west Texas, including the
panhandle, is unecononlic, and 1t IS oul
business TO bring about a wholesome
change in the direction of commercial
| intercourse"
Certainly a country so geographically
| similar as west Texas, New Mexico
and Arizona should develop closer trade
relations than now exist

HALI.N

From Alamagordo IN. Nj News.
A field representative Of one of the
biggest lyeeum agencies in America
went to Cloudcroft this week to try to
interest the people in a Chautauqus
for this season. It was decided at
the conference that it would not be
advisable to try to hold a Chautauqua
this season.
One of the reasons for deciding not
to try the venture this summer was
that the only attractions which We're
available had only one open date, July
% TO 80. inclusive. That date was not
far enough distant TO allow sufficient
time for the required advertising.
Another difficulty which could not be
overcome was. the fact that there was
no building Of adequate accommoda-
tions available to hold Chautauqua
or other public meeting. Cloudcroft
needs an assembly hall. and needs il
badly. If one is to be in readiness fol-
next season the time to begin work
on the plans and arrangements neces.
