A CITY sHA1GED

Fl Paso, the thriving city the Mexican border, has been branded with shame by it's own inhabitants
 At the present time there is heated contest the election of school trustees the chief issue being the matter of sectarian teachings in its schools
 Fl Paso boasts of having made great strides toward civic advancement during recent years but apparently is devoid of the basic principle which govern ment founded to push itself forward in the ranks
 AI the advancement of which El Paso can boast has been bettled by the n-Amercan conflict that is in the limelight of the Pass Cty's affairs.
 School affairs and church affairs like oil and ter but Fl Paso factions have dsgaced their city by their ignorance in trying to make the two mix.

HIGHWAY IGNORANCE

Editor w. G. Damon, of the Kngman, Ariz., Mine, makes startling disclosure of what he knows about high is so absurd in its entirety, to be totally unworthy Note what little Bro. Damon knows of South ern Arizona's progressiveness in road building:
 Just listen to this from the publicity man of the Tombstone Epitaph The past week has brought much good news ill the way of construction on the all-season, always travelable highway from Fl Paso to San Diego via the Old Spanish trail We find the lucky tourist who chose Fl PasO as his gateway go- ing west over the Old Spanish Trail with not son to halt, excepting to the wonderful sights along this highway and that ill the face of five-nc snowstorm last Sunday That poor booster fellow is real card. He leads the poor tourist to imply that there is real road across southern Arizona known the Old Spanish Trail, when in fact there is a disconnected dsjonted, misfit of a road with here and there few miles of indstinct trail that Indian trailer might lose if taking up cold scent But just think of what body roadbed would be with five inches of melting 1t, and the poor boob who writes this fairy tale of southern roads poets someone to believe him. So far it is believed by few that it makes little difference, but let of those few, who diverted from the main high ways of the north get their hands the writer of this fiction and it will not be well for him. It is true that the south part of the state has wonderful chance for roadbuilding, this industry not having been overdone in that part of the country. There roads west of Tucson what is known the Old Spanish Trails and practically east of that point. Any tourist who goes over the route to Tue son takes route leading into Phoenix, thence to Parker and joins the National Old Trails the On the other hand the National Old Trails has road that is travelabe practically all the year. there being only bad strip between Ash Fork and Seligman which is under construction. When this and few spots in Navajo and Apache is completed this route will be the only recognized route ill the state It has the only attractions in the southwest the grea pine forest the Grand Canyon; the Petrified Forest the Painted Desert; Montezuina's We'll and Castle; the Indian villages, and many other important and interesting places such the Ice Caves, the Cliff Dwellings, etc. On the southern route what have they9 Only few old runs such Tombstone, ardo fQyyo nth nf fho UhOcff fOvpD Inc southwest, and these crying out from the grave yards of the past to the present day progressive towns of the state to connect them with part of Heaven that they may get out of the mud and mre and other things of the halfway place and into Gods sunlight"
 Solely through professional ethics and shame at tn ignorance of brother editor apologize to the citizen of Tucson and Tombstone, these ruins and ghost towm and express sincere regrets that their noble work their homes and highways should be the vie tim of such unjust assault by the journalistic ackas of Kingman.
