OarQlnal Farley mas completely
conquered the New York Schools!
More than 1000 Of the papist teachers,
employed by the Board, and paid by the nom
Catholic tax payers, are to teach American
children every day the elevating tenets of the
religion of Hans Schmidt, Father Schade-
we'll, Assassin Gallaher, Joseph Tumulty, and
the masked ravshers of that Camden, New
Jersey, nun.
BY these thousands of papist teachers, paid
by non-papists, the Little Red School-house
will be turned into joss-shop where the
American children will be taught that priest
cannot sin, that a priest can forgive other
peoples SINS that priest can make God out
of piece Of bread, that the Italian kiss-my-
foot Pope is the equal of God, that one of the
greatest of Saints was the jack-leg Jewish
carpenter, Joseph; and that the Bible is
book which the common people ought not to
own and read.

BY the time the foregoing editorial had
been made ready for the press, the news came
that the warm heart of Carl Browne had
ceased to beat,
A sudden attack carried him off, almost
simultaneously, as he was passing along the
streets of Washington.
He was a big souled brother, overlooking

But he was always trying to do, and to say;

New Mill Contemplated

We are informed by c. S, Barnes
of Platoro that during the summer
he has discovered upon the Glacier
group body of ore that promises
large returns with reduction
plant at the mine. He has let n
contract for driving 100 feet of
tunnel and is now on his way to
Los Angeles to raise money to
continue development work on an
extensive scale as soon as possible
in the spring.
After sufficient tonnage is
blocked out arrangements will be
made for developing hydro-electric
power and installing large mill
to treat the ores of this property.
@. B. Stutsman has Just received
the new basket ball suits for the

the jerseys had to go through the

and white, were knit in the jerseys
in distinctive way which enables
a player to be instantly recognized
as member of the Monte team.
This is feature Coach Hunt ad-
vised. The basket ball team is
doing some good work in their
practice games and we hope to see
them come through the season
with as high honors as did the
football team. 1t is reported that
Alamosa and Del Norte will not
have any teams this year but we
hope this is mistake and that
both towns will get busy and put
up some excellent games this

SPLENDID ENTERTAINMENT

A Christmas cantata, "The An
gelic Choir" by Carrie b. Adams,
was admirably rendered at the
Christian church Sunday evening
by chorus of eight voices, with
piano and organ accompaniment.
This cantata is written in style
appropriate to the occasion for
which it is intended, and the cho-
ruses were well interpreted and
handled with excellent taste. Es-
peclally pleasing were the solo
parts, and these were well taken
and sung impressively, The sue
cess of the affair tokens the hard
work on the part of the singers,
accompanist and director. The
fact that such occasions are always
enjoyed and much appreciated was
evidenced by the large audience.

Mormon Fugitive Seized

Two hours after his description
had been wired to the El Paso
police, E. Fl. Christensen, formerly
of Manassa, Colo, was last Thurs
day morning booked at the city
jail on the charge of being a
fugitive from justice. The pris-
oner was picked up by Officer
Caplinger who found him in charge
of small fruit stand on Stanton
street He was travelling under
the name of Ernest Oversen.
Christensen readily admitted his
identity at the police station, but
declined to discuss his past life or
the charges that have been pre-
ferred against him in his former
home in the San Luis valley.
Christensen is charged with
grave financial irregularities in
volving some SIT, 600. In his
home town he was prominent
citizen, president of the Bank of
Romeo and president of the Nor
mon church. 1t is charged that
he mortgaged property and then
mortgaged it some more. Then
some of the leaves in the books of
the county recorder disappeared
and persons who thought instru-
ments were safely on record were
''stung."
The little bank at Romeo is said
to be in serious financial difficulty
as a result of the frenzied manipu-
lation of it's funds. Members of
the Mormon church were the chief
victims of the irregular operations
of the man they trusted.
Christensen arrived in Ell Paso
week ago and at once purchased
the fruit stand where he was found
by the officer
He was delivered the fore part
of this week into custody of an
officer from Conejos county and
brought back for trial.

Postofice Is Center
Of Big Holiday Rush

Not the least busy place in town
during the past week has been the
Monte Vista postoffice.
Thirty-eight sacks of mail were
dispatched from this Office Mon
day, tying the record day of last
year and marking the high water
line for this season. Tuesday
night the number was 30 sacks.
However, the crowds that visited
the office were given quick and
courteous service, and the usual
increase in business incident to
the holiday season was met with a
preparedness that betokened con-
siderable study. Each employee
filled the position assigned him
without encroaching upon the
labors of his fellow workers, and a
carefully worked out system of
team work prevented congestion
of mail at any point,
Clerks in the lobby weighed and
rated parcel post packages, allow
ing more space at the receiving
windows. Here there was always
someone to take your money. The
transaction of mailing parcels
ended with the payment of the
postage, which was affixed by
postal clerks by means of pre-
cancelled stamps.
Extra mailing clerks were in
structed in the making up of direct
sacks for the various states and
Colorado points, 30 that with clos
ing time, practically all parcels
were ready for the train.
The parcel post department has
proven a boon to the holiday shop
per. Many more packages can be
sent through the mails, on account
of the increase in weight allow
ances, and of course rate which
is much less than those previously
collected by the express companies
All this goes to create better ser
vice in the postoffice department
The increased patronage of the
government service and the advan-
tages offered by the parcels post
system, has caused many more
employees to be added to the post
Office department, and this enables
the department to handle much
more business during the holiday
season, which is the greatest in
any season.
