The Timki la the only daily psjmr published
In Kl Paso with the Associated Press dispatches.
The el taso times—the rep-
resentative paper of western
Texas.
The Times implicitly believes
in a great future for El Paso. We
will be there to see oor hopes
verified.
It would not be a bad thing to
have in tins city a society for the
prevention 6f cruelty to animals
Horses—for instance.
The Times gives its readers
daily the latest obtainable telegra-
phic news. The expense is heavy,
but a city like EI Paso must have
the press dispatches.
By the bomb-throwing in Chi-
cago, sixty-six policemen were hit,
live were killed outright, fifty one
are still in a critical condition,and
ten have'returned to duty.
Both the Greek and Turkish
armies are mutually surrendering
the prisoners and posi ions they
respectively captured during the
frontier lighting of the last few
davs-
Sl'NDAV is said to be a good day
for fishing and for going to
church. As the river is too high
for fishing, let's all go to church.
It can't 1)8 denied that the
weather gets a little warm these
days in this neighborhood, but the
nights remain deliciously cool and
pleasant.
El Paso is prosperous and so
is the Times—thank you. The city
and the paper go together hand
in hand towards prosperity and
greatness.
The month of May is drawing
to a dose, and it has been a pros-
perous one for El Paso. The
Times also is growing in prosper-
ity and influence constantly.
David Davis said once that a
newspaper gives, free gratis and
for nothing to the benefit of the
community in which it is priuted,
what costs it from $1,000 to $5,000
per year, aud Davis told the truth.
The Times gives its readers the
latest Associated Press dis-
patches—quite a boon to a push-
ing and enterprising community.
In this section of the country the
expense of telegraphic service is
Jieavyybut the Times is ready to
contribute its full share to the
growth and prosperity of Hi Paso.
A prominent Arizoniau, in
speaking of the offer of for
Geronimo's head, says: "Any and
every means which can be used to
»top their rapine and murder
should be adopted. Gcronitno is
worse than a Bengal tiger, and his
death is more to be desired than
one. of the wild beasts of the for-
ests, for he has greater power of
destruction. The secretary of
war must not try to carry on a
war of refinement with these
Apache devils, if he would accom-
plish any result."
The Marfa New Era speaks
hopefully of the mining outlook in
Presidio county. It says: "News
from the Ohinati district continues
to be of the most encouraging
character. It will not be long be-
fore Marfa will be shipping more
silver bullion than any point, in the
southwestern silver district. There
is a vast amount of capital in the
cast ftiat would jump at such op-
portunities for investment as are
offered in the mineral districts of
Presidio county, and when ourrich
resources become known to the
ontside world, we will have an in-
flux of money and people that will
surprise some of us. Such au
event will mean prosperity and
wealth for Marfa."
On July 7th the fortieth anni-
versary of the annexation of the
territory of California to the Uni-
ted States will bo celebrated at
Monterey. In 1842 Commodore
Jones landed at Monterey and
formally took possession of the
country in the name of the United
States. A little later he had to
haul the flag down and apologize
to Mexico; but four years later,
July 7,1845, Commodore Sloat ar-
rived at Monterey, scarcely two
hoars in advance of an English
vessel, and raised the stars and
stripes over the town, aud thus
California was saved to the un-
ion. This is the event to be cole
brated. Th&t everything may pass
off harmoniously and give no of-
fense to the native California pop
ulation, the flag of Spain will first
be hoisted, saluted and lowered,
then the Mexican flag will be rais
ed by the oldest California rasi
dent at Monterey, saluted, and
lowered by General M. G. Vallejo;
then the American flag will be
boisted by au officer of the Uni-
ted States navy, saluted and left
Mag-
liEV. Mr. Spurgeon is not an
enthusiastic admirer of Glad-
stone's Irish Home Rule bill. He
says: "The whole scheme is full of
dangers and absurdities, as if con-
ceived by a mad man, yet I am
sure that Gladstone is doing jus-
tice, and is acting for good to all.
I consider he is making one of
those mistakes only made by
.great and well-meaning men."
Congressman Hewitt in his
minority report on the Mexican re-
ciprocity treaty says unless we im-
prove the opportunity afforded by
the treaty to cement our relations
with Mexico we are in danger of
losing all the fruits of the enor-
mous expenditure of capital which
has made the commerce possible.
To fail to take advantage of this
new field for the exercise of our
energies is simply to declare our-
selves guilty of the studidity and
prejudice which we have been in
the habit of charging upon others,
and this act of folly would be com-
mitted at a time when we so much
need new and larger markets for
the surplus products ofourindus-
try.
The hostile Apaches seem to be
pretty close to Tucson. There
must be quite a number of them,
probably reinforced by the for-
mer scouts. The Star says: "On
Mosday and Tuesday nights six
or seven Indians were seen graz-
ing their horses in a ciifton the
miles west of the hospital. On
Tuesday there were two seen in
the city. Yesterday the Indians
seen west of the hospital were
tracked four miles west of here,
where a cow was found killed on
the track and the meat taken from
the liind-quarters. There wore
several parties out yesterday
watching for new developments.
It would bo well for all who find
it necessary to leave the city to
go armed, during the next few
days at least. The hostiles are
flying in every direction."

The Churchman has a long article on
church music. In which It condemns the
present practice of turning the cnurch,
into a conccrt-ri om and the use of all
sorts of fanciful device* to amuse and
attract -cornets, violin, and harp play-
ers, ami even pianists. It asks the
Episcopal church to take the lead in re-
turning to the old, wholesome practice
of congregational singing.
The bishop of Oxford sent to the
church wardens in his diocese a cir-
cular of inquiries, among which was:
"Doe*yourofllclating clergyman preach
the gospel, and Is his conversation and
carriage consistent therewith?" 'I'he
church warden of Walingford replied:
'•lie preaches the gospel, but doe* not
keep a carriage."
