Exhibits To Keep Open.
Pres't John Bordner announced
again Saturday morning that all eX-

of nearly all Of them that they will
do so.
The fair management will care
fully guard the grounds until every
exhibit is claimed by the owners The
public must necessarily be kept out
of the grounds Sunday and Monday
in order TO prevent confusion when

: Editor FL Paso Herald;
1 see from a brief report of an IN
terview with Mr. Morgan. the court
house constructor, published IN The
Herald. that il il expected the new
court house will be occupied early N
April.
I have had long in mind the idea
that the occasion of this removal OF
the courts and other public OFFICES INTO
this ma gnificent structure, so s1gges-
tive Of the progress or west texas.
would be suspicious for the promulga-
ton of some reforms in court decorurn.
I have waited for some member OF
the bench or bar whose voice might
carry more weight than mine 10 make
the suggestion; but 1 have not heard
the voice. il is by no means that 1 am
alone in approving the reforms Lfat
I have IN mind. for I know that many
members OF the bar entertain the same
opinion.
What I desire to suggest is that in
the new building new order Of
things shall obtain.
First-That no smoking be per-
mitted in a court room while court is
in session
second-That lawyers be required to
stand while addressing a court or ex-
aiming witnesses or Jurors
Third-That the tables and desks Of
the court rooms be used for their legti-
mate AM proper purposes, and not for
foot rests.
These sc thee things which occur
to me and doubtless there are others
which will occur TO the proper authori-
ties If the matter be taken up and
considered.
Nov that I am in IL, may I not go
a step further and make bold TO Sug
Sest that if the chief judge Of the
court OF civil appeals should request
= conference of all the judges OF all
the courts. they could then consider
these and any other matters and adopt
such rules and regulations as would
establish course OF conduct which
would be uniformly observed in all
the courts from the highest TO the low
est sincerely hope that the bar VII
not let me stand alone in this: but
that some will say what they think
about it. AS Tor myself, I have no ex-
act business in the courts but II
may live long enough to see the "old
order" somewhat changed, I shall be
glad.

RoAsTs THE SENATE DOZEN.

Douglas, AriZ-, March Z.
Editor FL Paso Herald:
II Is small wonder that president
wilson should have felt deeply cha
Grined after the defeat OF the armed
neutrality bill or that public opinion
or the country should be so scathing
IN its denunciation OF the treasona bic
recaicitrancy Of a bakers dozen OF
senators responsible for this most un-
precedented humiliation Of the ad-
mlnlStratlOn and the nation.
The specious plea that to grant the
president the power asked for would
he tantamount to a fatal partition Of q
power presumed to be exercised ex-
ciusively Of power presumed to be
exercised exclusively by the senate, is
sheerest mOOnshine. The constitution
IiXes rigid limitations upon the power
70 be exercised by the three coordinate
branches OF our government and the
president is as scrupulOus in his OBJ
seTNances Of them as any OF his nrede-
cessors- The claim set forth that the
president solicited a permanent sur
render of one of their pet prerogatives
IS simply a puerile absurdity The
gravity OF the situation precluded the
possibility Of the president aspiring TO
infringe upon the constitutional pow
ers Of that body.
Their action strongly suggests the
opinion that their patriotism is 80
microscopic in character that they
cannot distinguish between the rau-

THE SPIRIT OF MCKENZIE.

Arrey, N NJ. March S. 1917.
Editor FL Paso Herald:
I was born on Red river, so miles
south of Fort Sill. Okla, where my
father was stationed during the war
10 keep back the blood thirsty Co
manehes and one of the first things I
remember was the crossing of Gen
Mckenzie with a band OF Comanches
captured in west Texas II was this
same Mckenzie who broke the spirit
OF the COmsnches by capturing and
killing 800 head of their horses along
with a few Comanches on Horse Head
canyon on the plains OF Texas.
1t was this same Mckenzie who was
the first TO strike the Chevennes after
the Custer massacre and forced them
10 surrender.
It was this same mckenzie who
crossed the Rio Grande and followed
the Indians Of that section to their
hiding pacles in old Mexico, notwith-
stanuIng Mexican army was drawn
UP to stop him, but politely got out of
the way when he did not stop.
Mckenzie IS dead and it seems his
spirit died with him Let US hope it
may be born again in the breast OF
some nable scout, member of Anglo
glo-SaXon race.
Have we become q nation OF rabbits
70 make sport for Mexican bandits and
Mexican bullets?
Oh, for another Mckenzie. the white
mans friend May his spirit ever live
