cities on the Pacific slODe-TacOma, once
the rival of Seattle, and, according to
the Tacoma papers, tomorrow the rival

Tacoma is situated on one of the many
vermiform appendices of Puget sound.
Its feet are buried in the mud flats,
which are sold periodically to eastern in

slope until the tourist gives it up in de-
spair and goes home to soak his tendon
of Achilles in arnica.
Tacoma Is also situated on three great
transcOntinental railroad lines and all
trains stop there Most of them not only
stop there but disintegrate and 90 no
further. Steamships from a hundred
ports loot their way up the sound to
Tacoma and every year a whole pine
forest comes down to the city and IS
shinned for foreign parts.
Tacoma was first thought of in 1888,

Counting the Years
By Walt Mason

The years shouldn't count when we're
stating our age, for some men are young
when they're gray, and others are old ere
they've jOurneyed a stage IN this world
and its wonderful way. / know an old
graybeard who ought to be dead If years
laid a man by the heels; he cheerily
sings as he stands on his head: "A mans
Just as old as he feels" The years do
not age us so badly, In truth; it's worry
that makes the blood cold; the man who
Is blessed with the spirit of youth IS
young when a hundred years old; the
graybeard l wOt of, he laughs and he
yells, and dances Virginia reels, and al
ways and ever his roundelay swells: "A
mans Just as old as he feels" No man
should admit that his days are near told,
or talk of the past with a sob; no man
should admit that he's growing too old
to eat summer corn from the cob; the
graybeard L speak of. he's slcker than
grease, he cheers up the world with his
splels; he says land his words suggest
comfort and peacel: "A mans Just as
old as ne feels" I know a young man
who IS thirty or less, in years, but he's
old as the hills; he goes around looking
Tor grief and distress, and talks BY the
day Of his ills. The graybeard. God bless
him, is younger than that He ne'er at
the wailing place kneels; he chOrtles,
while kicking a hole through his hat:

MILITARY AND CIVIL AUTHORITY.

MILITARY AND CIVIL AUTHORITY.
Editor FL Paso Herald:
Several weeks ago the soldiers sta
toned here at Candelaria, Texas,
seized two boxes of ammunition as
they were being carried into our store
and afterwards came into the store
and seized three other boxes. D. D.
fitzpatrick recently filed a claim in the
courts for this ammunition and the
court issued papers of sequestration
for same. The soldiers, however. de-
fled the courts order and laughed at
the officers attempt to execute it, re-
sisting him by force of numbers.
We begged for the soldiers to come
among US to protect US from bandits
thieves and robbers across the river.
But so unjust and high handed have
been some of their acts, we now pray
our father which art in" the white
house to protect us from the soldiers.
How long, o, cOnscript fathers. shall
your patience endure" this new Cata-
line? Shall we suffer him under our
very eyes to come here and defy our
civil laws2 Are we going to permit,
by inactiOn and SerVile submission. the
unwarrantable and domineering ac-
lions of this blue coat along our Dor
der to be the beginning of the ascen-
dancy of the soldier over the citi-
zen?
In the distance we hear the voice
of many answering these questions.
This voice is not now that of crashing
thunder, but it contains an ominOus
warning, for never shall this great
land of ours become a Germanized mill
itary aristOcracy and the naughty war
lord now strutting up and down our
border would better beware of Un-
claiming the tiger Of civil supremacy.

II De- LIow.

Editor FL PasO Herald:
As the item appearing in WedneS-
days issue of The Herald, relative to
FL PasOans being entitled TO S1,0OO,OOO
in rebates from the insurance compa-
MES, is misleading, we deem 1t adyisa-
BILE, in order that the people Of this
city may be properly informed to make
the following statement On the subject:
On September 20, 1912, the state in
surance board promulgated an order u
the effect that When a statement
showing the loss ratio for a city or town
for the three calendar years preced-
ing its filing with the state insurance
board by the mayor Of the city or town,
and such statement has been approved
by the state insurance board, the fol-
lowing credits will be allowed: For
each percent or fraction thereof, less
than SO percent loss ratio for three cal
endar years next preceding, 3 percent
the maximum credit to be allowed, 10
percent"
As you will note, the basis ratio is
for the aggregate of three years next
preceding and not for each individual
year Moreover, in the event that the
city of FL PasO should file the state
ment referred to, and the state insur-
ance board approves the same and al
allows the necessary credit based on
these figures, any rebates then due
would not be retroactive in effect, but
would apply only from the date of the
boards order approving same, and In
that case, only on policies written on
and after such date. Section Is, Of the
state insurance board law, specifically
provides for this. So that, assuming
that the premium income received by

The heavy fall of snow, a good foot

WAS IDEAL DAY
WITH SNOW A FOOT DEEP ON
GROUND AND p. M. MILES a
SANTA FOR EVERYBODY.

1t was an ideal Christmas day,
with a foot of SNOW and a tempera-
ture only little above the freezing
point. There were the usual Sunday
school festivals to mark the observ-
ance of the greatest of all days in
the Christian calendar and the usual
happy family reunions in the homes,
with a general suspension of business,
excepting at the postofice, where the
presiding officer of that institution.
Mr.. Miles, was the acknowledged
Santa Claus Of everybody.
If in the whole realm of Uncle
Sans domain there is a more accom-
modating or obliging postmaster than
Miles, who stood at his post of duty
for about IS hours a day for the past
week, the Journal would like to shake
his hand. And the Journal wants to
commend also and publicly thank his
assistant. Mrs. Falligan, for her part
in asserting the mails at this exact

packages than in past years before
the parcels post system became in
use. Tt is certainly g popular means
