CHARITY Or
CANNED is THE PLAN

Mexico is to have a permanent
charity organization if the plans pro-
posed at the Commercial Club lunch
con, Friday, develop. A committee
composed of w. L. Fowles, Sam Nor
ris. William Pollock, E. R. Locke and
Turner Williams was appointed to
meet with the City Coucil, Monday,
to make arrangements for such an
organization.
At the c~alaboose, Thursday night,
twenty-six men out of work spent the
night. Friday morning these men
had nothing to eat and were forced
to hit" back doors for food. The new
charity organization will be for the
purpose of looking after these men as
well as the worthy poor of Mexico.
Under the present plan of dispensing
charity many dead-beats "work" the
City and two or three churches be-
side numerous individuals before they
are found out. These means of living
without working will be done away
with an organized committee looking
after the charity.
A letter from Judge w. W. Bolts,
giving the plans for constructing the
extension Of the electric line was read
Judge Bolts said all of the money
from Santa Fe had not been subscrib-
ed but this deficit had been made up
by donations Of ties and tie timber
He stated it was the intention of the
railroad company to complete this ex-
tension by the middle of next summer
and he asked that the Mexico people
get busy and raise the remainder Of
their subscription, 1856. He said il
was easier to get credit for a part Of
, the material at present than it woult
, be under ordinary circumstances an'
| also to build more economically.
On motion made and seconded
was voted to have a meeting OF al
subscribers, the railroad committe
and citizens in the Police Court room
, of the City Hall, Tuesday evening
Dec. Is, at 1880 o'clock. If the re
mainder of the Mexico subscription
are made, Judge Bolts indicated
a his letter that it was the plan of tn
I company to complete the extension
E. R. Locke was chairman Of tn
meeting, Friday.
