can secure free grazing on
the lawns Of FL Paso house
holders will find themselves in the

pay pound charges to get them out.
Inc day has passed when cattle can
roam at will over the territory Of the
city. FL Paso as a free cattle range
IS a thing Of the past. The lawns OF
Il PasOans constitute one Of the beauty
sights Of the city and the police will,
when notified. round up every stray
found pasturing on a lawn The round
up will differ from those Of the early
days. There will be no cut backs in
the city roundup"

Mexican race an injustice when they
advocated the principle Of leaving that
race without representation in the ad-
ministration Of county affairs" said
Domingo MOntoya. The population Of
FL Paso is largely made up Of Next
cans and many Of those are property

The torefathers Of some OF US lived in
this country years and years before
the Americans took up their quarters

city Of FL Paso. the county and the
state, and until IT is proved otherwise,

allowed US. think that is only fair"
