Ell Paso has hotels and business blocks
office buildings and apartment houses
galore. 1t can furnish the same class
Of hotel accommodations that the best
New York hotels supply, down to the
modest requirements Of q lean purse
The man. or woman who wants to
buy a lot or home, a palace or
bungalow, will be wei taken care Of
in the ordinary course Of business.
Beyond these ordinary phases two
things loom large on the horizon: To
provide work and to provide play. Ell
PasO should be made attractive for
those who would play; its bare spots
must be made beauty spots.
What Good Roads Do.
Good roads are a great help. Good
roads mean that we must have better
hotels and more Of them. Good roads
mean that the natural beauties and
attractions are made more accessible
and therefore more attractive.
It looks, however, as II recreation
would be the minor side Of the prob
lem during the next two years. In
vestment, business, work, are three
gO-betWeens for the thousands who
will come to make their homes.
81 PasO must help capital and labor
to work along the lines Of the least
resistance; must promote and foster
peculiar to this section; that viii create
and establish natural mOnopolles in
business and manufactures.
Then there is the soil. The people
OF FL PasO have a great work to do
here. To attract the most desira bic
classes, to start them in the right d.

rection, to help them to avoid mis-
takes, to lend every assistance posi-
Bile in making their coming ana stay
ing profitable both to themselves ana
to the southland.
And in this great work it is not
merely the DeoDIe Of Ell PasO, but OF
all the southwest that should take an
active part. Each section eacn grow
ing thriving community has some
thing to offer the newcomer that can
not be supplied elsewhere. All nope
and believe a proper proportion OF the
people who come here WITHIN the next
few years viii find the solution Of
their problems in the work and prizes
that the soil has to offer.
To Become Manufacturing City.
Ell Paso is destined, by reason Of
its immense and varied natural re-
sOurces-resOurces Of the empire OF
which it is the center-by reason OF
its railroads, the raw material at It's
doors, the cheap labor, TO become
great manufacturing city. Cheap fuel
is no longer a problem. The climate
gives an advantage over less favored
cities. A good beginning has already
been made, but only a beginning. A
mighty work is to be done here.

ceiVes its duties and mission Alright,

While continuing along well estab-

proved so much need and so success

room for the chamber to branch out.

its objects.
The functions Of this Industrial bu-

1Ows:
To make a careful Industrial survey
Of the city, and to determine specifi-
cally and accurately just what COM
mOdltles are being manufactured here,
and the character, quantity and quality
Of each.
To Investigate the needs Of concerns
already established here and to rem

ment and support
To persistently seek information re-
garding the contemplated removal OF
factories from other cities, and to pre-
sent the claims Of Los Angeles in con
nection Herewith.
To invite manufacturers to visit Los
Angeles and to place them in touch
with our business men.
To maintain files OF Information Gov

To publish and circulate literature
containing facts and figures concern

Thurman, of the city police department. who appeared at the hear ing yesterday and testified that he had seen Lopez give the red stuff to the Indian The Indian who procured the bottle from Lopez, also sWore that To- peg was the man from whom he had made the purchase.
 The bond was set at $200, and Lopez was placed in the county jail to await trial, the bond not being given.

4 SPECIAL FEATURE
 WILL BE BUFFALO BILL

Every once in a while Col. William r. Cody Buffalo Bib who is to ap- pear here Thursday April ,, with the combination of the Sells Floto circus and Buffalo Bill (himselD, tells a story. And usually that story, in ad- dition to being funny, is on himself. Such is the case-but here's the yarn. Ask any one of these Indians with the show. and he'll tell you that he has great respect for the United States regular soldier" said Col. Cody, recently However, l found out once that there's a difference between the respect for the regular and for the militia man.
 Tt was during :he War of the Messiah, of which moving pictures recently were made. I had been a scout in the Dakotas, but when l came back to Pine Ridge I occupied the position of brigadier general of the Nebraska militia. Naturally, l had on plenty of uniform, and the first Indian who saw me became in terested.
 You big general now, Pahaska?' ? he asked. and my chest rose with the compliment.
 Yep 1 said, I'm big general.
 Heap big general?'
 "'Oh, bigger than that. Heap heap big general
 Heap big general-like Bear Coat General Miles)%
 Yep, heap big general like Bear Coat
 Heap big general reglar army?'
 Heap big general, militia. Milish you know; milish.'
 And when I said that sentence, the Indian looked at me again, curled his lip and wiggled his fingers at his nose.
 Heap big shucks.' he said, and walked away"
 And now as the man in the side show would say passing on from these few remarks, there comes the information that Colonel Cody, Americas best beloved citizen will lead the great parade of the Sells Floto- Buffalo Bill combination as q special honor to this city, when it comes here April ?. In the perform ance he will present an entirely new spectacle, entitled "Warpath, which will present the progress of civiliza- ton from the frontier times to the present day And the price for the whole performance remains the same as it was in former years, p cents, with seats for 14,000 persons.

JURY CASES CALLED
 IN SUPERIOR COURT

The first of the jury cases in the new Superior Court calendar, will be called today. All of the new calendar are civil cases, and they will continue over to the latter part of April. A spe- cial veneer of twenty will be assembled by the sheriff this morning at the Court House, and the first twelve will be drawn
 There is a full calendar of civil suits to come before the court at this time They are set at sufficiently close inter- vals to fill the time from now till the last week in April, when the jury will be dismissed and the court will again take up cases which do not require a jury
 Following the close of that series of non jury cases. the court will set the next criminal calendar. By the time the criminal cases are ready for trial, there will be ample to keep the court busy for some weeks. There are at the present time in the county jail, a good number waiting trial. and there seems lately to be an ever increasing register book on Jeffs little desk
