Nj doubtedly prove a big sue
l. 4 cess" said NJ P. Carlock.
The large department and other stores
in the city will be glad of the oppOr-
tunity to display products grown and
made in FL PasO and the valleys of the
Rio Grande. There are many Ell Pa
scans who have no idea Of the large
number of things that are made in the
city and this will give every one an
opportunity to see just what FL PasO
is doing in manufacturing and farm
ing way. 1t will also give the manu-
facturers an opportunity TO exhibit the
products they are manufacturing. EX-
hibits of this kind have proved very
! successful in other cities where they
have become an annual event De-
troit, Mich, Waco, Texas, and scores Of
other cities are now having these
shows annually. 1t also gives the Wis
itor and tourist an opportunity to see
| what the city is doing in a manufac-
turing way"
',El Paso is enjoying more prosper
| ity than any other city of a similar
population in the east" said Price Nc
J Kinney, Of Cleveland. Il have been
I coming to FL PasO for several years
and this fall upon my arrival I was
surprised to see the city in such a
/ prosperous condition in the face of the
European and Mexican trouble. The
| city is certainly destined to become one
/ shipping and mining centers of the
I entire west"
In my business I come in contact
| with many travelling men. who are the
| real barOmeters Of financial conditions,
! in the country" said alderman Ben
| Levy They are unanimously Of the
! opinion that FL Paso is in far better
/ financial condition than any other city,
whether large or small, in the country.
| Whereas, business concerns in other
| cities have been countermanding or
/ ders for goods, FL Paso merchants are
| increasing them. Travelling men are
skipping neighboring cities and states
to get to FL Paso, where they are sure
to receive good orders"

| What has truck me most fOrcibly
/ in the football games have seen this
/ season. said judge Ballard COldwel1
\ lis the fact that there is so little punt
/ ing done Back in the days when I
/ played the game we always kicked on
/ the last down If we had any distance to
/ 70, and If our kicker could outdistance
/ the man who was doing the punting
/ Tor our opponents we frequently re-
/ sorted to kicking game. We won
I many games in this way. Nowadays,
| however, the forward pass appears to
/ have superseded kicking excepting
when team has the ball very close to
their own goal line"
/ Considerable disappointment was
/ felt throughout California as a result
/ of the defeat Of the boxing BILL said
/ C. w Steffens. "Of course the anti
/ prize fight agitatOrs were in the ma
/ jority and won out in the election, but
/ there IS a feeling Of regret in San
| Francisco and Los Angeles over the
| passage of the law. All of the fighters
/ IN those two boxing cities will 20 east
I within a short time and the promoters
Z will be swamped with material with
/ which to put on shows. Juarez and
/ New Orleans will Of course, come in
for large part Of these. sam Lang
I ford will head this way within short
time according to the coast papers,
! Cattle around PecOs is in fine
? shape" said sheriff c. f. Harrison, OF
| Reeves county All this season we
/ have had excellent rains and the range
4 is in better condition than I have ever
: seen il. Conditions regarding the mar
4 l5eting Of the cattle are about the same
/ as in other parts Of the west but the
! Cattlemen are all hopeful that there
| viii be a decided betterment by the
| first Of the year and that large ship
ments will then be made The cattle
are all healthy and there has been no
! indications Of any kind Of an epidemic,
such as that which has necessitated
! the quarantine in the east"
"EI PasOans with children know the
pleasure that a toy gives child" said
! Mrs. T. ". Lanier There are any
NUMBER OF little children, American
I families, too, in Ell PasO who will be
I without toys of any kind at Christmas
! time In every family where there are
| children there must be some discarded
| or damaged toys which no longer in
terest the children. If these toys
would be sent to the Charity associa-
/ ton they could be repaired and would
give delight at Christmas time to little
children who otherwise would have no
Christmas pleasure"

reading OF the plan to form a suffrage
league among the women of Ell Paso,"
said Mrs. Erma p. linden. st hone that
