Fight Between Ell PasOans
That's Where the Real Controversy
on Boundary Lies, Says z. t.
White; Little Interviews
G6TF NEW MEXICO is really en-

66TF NEW MEXICO is really en-
titled to the land that all this
controversy is about" said Zach
7. White, I'VE are willing that New
Mexico should have it But it is GO
ing to take a lot more evidence than
these aged MeXicans are able to give
TO prove where the river really was
Although the state of New Mexico is
bringing the fight to establish the
boundary line where it was in 1850,
the real fight is between Ell PasOans,
who claim rights by either Texas or
New Mexico grants to the same land.
This viii not come up though, until
after the supreme court decides the
case
'I am in favor of Intervention" says
Z. c. Wade, of Las Cruces, who is one
of the associate cOunSelS on the boun-
dairy dispute hearing. Il believe in
running the flag clear down to the
Panama canal, and then putting the
whole of that country under military
rule for % years. To my mind it is
manifestly to the interest CT everyone,
and particularly Mexico, to have Uncle
Sam step in and open that country to
civilization. Mexico can never do it
for itself, and it is only a foolish
pride that is keeping her from want
ing the United States TO take a hand
and manage things for her"
'T am happier than I ever was be-
fore in my life" declared Howard Fogg
today, when he came down from mis-
ranch at Berino for a days visit to
friends in the city. My hogs never
bother me with any union demands
and my cows and horses never kick
about the quality of the show. They
are always happy and so am I. Rails
ing alfalfa and apples and feeding
pigs, milking cows and pitching hay
certainly assure a man more peace Of
mind and fewer disturbed slumberS
than running a theater. 1 tried for u
years to run a theater and be happy
Then I bought my ranch and found
that I didn't have any idea of what
happiness and cOntentment really
were until I broke into the rural ex-
istence.'
''EI Paso would profit in keeping its
streets free of congestion If IL fol-
lowed the methods adopted in PhOe-
nix" said A. Z. Ryan over there,
they have policemen at all the busiest
corners to keep people from cutting
across except by regular crossings and
to hold automobile and vehicle traffic
in check when necessary for the pro-
lection of pedestrians. Nobody IS al
lowed to cut diagOnaly across a street
at the corner. and the patrolman holds
up the vehicle traffic on one street
while it crosses over the other one
and vice versa It is a good plan and
regulates the traffic perfectly

George F. Jackson. assistant freight
and passenger agent Tor the southern
Pacific in Mexico. q am on my way
to Cananea, Sonora, from San Antonio,
where I have been visiting my family.
I have made many trips here since 1890
and I have seen the good old Pass City
grow like a young girl budding into
beautiful womanhOod Ell PasO has
donned her magnificent garb of the
new fashions of cityhood and Justly
takes the lead among the prosperous
and progressive cities of the southwest
Conditions on the west coast of
Mexico are about the same as they
have been for several months past, with
everyone hoping patiently they viii re-
turn to normal"

plans are being drawn for our pro-
posed new church" says Rev. o. J.
Wade. pastor of the Calvary Houston
Square Baptist church. -Four or five
architects have been asked to submit
designs for the new edifice, which will
cost about sos, 600. We expect these
plans to be finished in two or three
weeks and a selection should be made
in about a month It has not been
definitely decided just where the
church will be built, but this question
should be settled in the next 10 days
