ANOTHER wICKEDEsT CITY.
from Austin CTexasJ' Statesman.

From Austin (TexasJ, Statesman.
Says The FL Paso Herald:
"a prohibitionist is quoted as refer
ring to Ell Paso as the wickedest city
in Texas because his cause has never
made much Roadway in this city. This
is one Of the greatest mistakes he ever
made FL Paso may not favor prohibit
ton, but FL Paso is not the wickedest
city in the state and will not even
take fifth rank in that category, al
though that is her place OF importance,
according to the census report
We are very much interested to
know that FL Paso has also been called
the wickedest city In Texas We be-
lfeve that completes the list. Every
city in the state has now been referred
to by some anti-salOon orator or other
worker for the moral uplift as the
wickedest city in texas.
It recalls to our mind a very clever
little game played upon the people re-
Gently by Joseph f. Howard At each
civ where the musical comedy COM

for which he wrote the mussc. stopped
he would come forth with piece Of

He sang it. and it was very nice
song. and each Audience felt very much

audience any harm and it did HOWARD
A great deal Of good.
The prohibition orator is in very
much the same situation. Like great
many other orators and near-oratOrs

the people shall discover that he is

VERY REMARKABLE DOCUMENT

New Orleans, Nov. G.-An inter-

which grew out of the acquisition
by the United States of the canal
zone is contained in an official docu-
ment of the Colombian government,
= copy o. which YVES received here

instructions of the Department of
Boyaca, declares that former Presi-
dent Roosevelt was the soul of the
conspiracy" which resulted in
Wrestling Panama from the repuJ-

The decree gives the language in
which the history of the Panama
rebellion shall be taught in all pub
lie schools and colleges of the de-
partment. After giving the names
of the leaders of the rebellion, all
of whom, il is declared, were "su-

JUDGE wHiTTLEsEys ATTITUDE.

In letteBthat appears Ill another col ump, Judge Whittlesey makes clear 0 point that seemed to need clarifying for the understanding of some who failed to comprehend the significance of the petition for a call for vote on the H- cense question in the official warming for the town election. That point is, that the signing of such petition, by voter, is not necessarily to be interpreted as all indication of the signer's attitude on the question of license. It indicates his willingness to have the matter brought up to be acted upon by the voters as they see fit. Judge Whittlesey, who signed the petition to bring the license matter before the people, is an uncompromising No License man and makes no secret of his intention to vote against license, which the "warning" for the town meeting gives him the opportunity of doing by virtue of the official call result ing from the petition. However strongly he is opposed to license, he rec ognizes the legal right of it's advocates to have a chance to vote on it and his letter makes it plain that the signing of 8 petition for a license clause in the warning is by no means declaration in favor of license.
