WISHES TO MOVE
PUMP FACTORY HERE

Proposition to Chamber
of Commerce.

The Ell Campo Machine company IS
DESTROYS of moving its factory for the
manufacture of irrigation pumps 10 FL
Paso and before a meeting of the man
ufacturing committee of the chamber
Of commerce Tuesday afternoon. r j.
Hardy. representing the company, put
IN a proposition to the FL Paso bust
ness institution whereby Fl Paso can
get the factory The main proposition
is that the city OF FL Paso furnish
building site for the factory situated
on one of the local railroads. no special
one being named by Mr. Hardy II
not this. the company is willing TO es-
tablish the factory here if FL Paso
firms will take a half interest in the
enterprise or a controlling interest. Nj
Hardy SAYS he is DESTROYS of establish
ing a factory here and If this cannot
be done. 10 have some one make the
pumps here and obtain sale for them
in this section
The pump itself is said to be stronger
than the usual irrigation pump OF the
same power required, and will pump at
a depth of 90 feet. and some OF the
pumps have averaged as high as S'OVV
gallons per day from wells.
Already there has been an outlay OF
$4,000 in the factory where It IS To-
Gated at FL Campo. Texas. but Fl Paso
is believed TO be a better location Tor
the enterprise.
Crawford Harvey. chairman of the
manufacturing committee, will have
demonstration of the pump made and
the matter of establishing the factory
in Fl Paso will not be decided until
later.

We must grow toward the house, and

JONATHAN TRUMBULL
August Fl, 1875.
By REV. THOMAS B. GREGORY.

IN the death of Jonathan Trumbuu.
127 years ago today-Aug. q. 1885
= our country lost one of the grand
est of the men who, in the times that
tried mems souls" stood ever true to
the cause of liberty
Born in Lebanon, Connecticut, in
171O. and graduated at Harvard in
1924, Trumbun began life thoroughly
equipped. physically, mentally and
morally, for the winning of the thing
men call success.
The sterling manhood. great good
sense and fearless industry of the
young man were not unappreciated by
his cOuntrymen. and the hOnors came
to him thick and fast. By turns, and
in rapid succession, Trumbull was
made judge. deputy governor and gov
ernor of Connecticut, and beyond a
doubt still higher honors in "a political
way would have come TO him but for
the breaking out OF the Revolutionary
war.
When the great struggle began
Trumbun entered into il heart and
soul, never deviating a hairs breadth
from the straight line of patriotic de-
votion. The British tried to buy him.
but he was not for sale There was
not gold enough in Eneland's strong
boxes to have bought him. They tried
to Brighten him, but he was proof
against the lOudest thunders Of their
wrath. He was neither to be scared
nor bribed into infidelity to the cause
that he loved with an individual al
lection.
There are men of thought and men
of action. Trumbul belonged in the
first category. He was man OF
thought. His common sense was uner-
ring. His judgment was ever true.
1t is a matter Of common knowledge
that Washington always placed the
greatest reliance in the Connecticut
man. He called him the first of pa
triots" and his confidence in his judg-
uenr was equal TO his admiration for
his patriotism.
As often as the Father of His Coun-
try was in doubt about the advisable
ity OF a thing he would If possible,

Our egoist gets a new job, only to
do it all over again if he can. This
kind of man seldom learns.
When he gets a job he soon begins
to correspond with rival firms for a
better one, with intent to take his
good will along. The blame should
go back to the first firm where he
