he could not begin to stand the ply
steal and mental strain that ne IS
under continually. His latest attack

J peal to the voters of Ell PasO. 1T does

/ the kind of ticket it would If there
I were only a few and the leaders
/ Knew that there was no danger OF any
( candidates opposing them. L know OF
I nc move to select an opposition t1ckel
| and have nothing to do with one. Al
! I would like to see is for every Amer

"El Pasoans should make triI
| through the upper valley at least once
| each month" said Charles B. Stevens
I Sunday, after he had returned IRON
| his ranch in the upper valley. THE
| valley changes so rapidly and is be
! ing improved so much that I hardl,
know it when L make monthly trips L
my ranch. The rancheFs are cultivat
ing more land, trimming their tree
/ cleaning up the underbrush and max
ing their places attractive. It woul
1 be a good thing for the chamber o
commerce to have automobile or tran
excursions through the valleys ever
| few months to show the people her
] at home what is being done.
