DEDICATED TO THE SERVICE OF THE PEOPLE, THAT NO GOOD CAUSE SHALL LACE A CHAMPION, AND THAT EVIL SHALL NOT THRIVE UNOPPOSED.
OME THINGS EL PASOANS MAY WELL BEAR IN MIND FOR THEIR OWN GREAT GAIN
N ANY PLAN for the El Paso of the future, and
for a better El Paso of the present, three great
principles must be kept in mind: First, maximum
use and practical service, public health and convenience,
must ever be the primary consideration; second, greater
beauty and charm should be sought, after the practical
side has been duly considered; third, we must plan so
that all residents shall share in the benefits of public
work, not merely a part of , our people.
The first thing to be aimed at in any city looking
toward the future, is convenient access to every part
of the city and its surroundings the practical facilities
of ordinary commercial and social traffic.
Then a progressive city must provide healthful con
citions for all its people facilities for normal, healthy
life and play. It is foolish and costly to neglect any
part of the population in planning these provisions.
Third, the whole city can be turned into one great
park, simply by extending the idea of wide curb park
ing and 30 foot paved roadways throughout the city
in residence districts wherever a street is not needed
for main highway traffic or for street car lines. In
this way a park can be brought to every man's door.
Fourth, El Paso's very greatest asset in the way
of natural scenic beauty the mesa's rim must be de
reloped by the construction of a scenic drive along the
rim, and a scenic park adjacent to the new high school
site.
Fifth, such medium sired parks as we already have
should be well cared for, but we do not need to acquire
more at present.
Sixth, small shew parks may be acquired and main
tained at intervals, including the new additions, bnt
there is no need to spend money too lavishly on ex
tending these particular features, since the great bulk
of the people may really be better served in other
ways.
Seventh, some effort should be made from time to
time to develop and improve to some extent the neigh
boring spots of natural attractiveness, such as the
Franklin mountains and the canyons in the foothills,
the trails and roads to the springs, the river banks
and canal banks, the points of interest on the mesa,
and so on.
Eighth, there should always be kept in mind the
serving of the cause of general attractiveness of the
city. Billboards should be eliminated in residence
sections and where they face public reservations.
Fences along streets, whether on front or side yards,
should be removed and hedges or concrete curbing sub
stituted. Private yards, wherever they can be seen
from the streets, should be kept clean and planted
with flowers and grass and trees. All this makes for
the greater comfort of the individual, adds to property
values, and helps to make the city itself a better place
to live in.
Ninth, if we can ever find a way to group our
public and semipublic buildings with some slight re
gard for the general effect it should be done, though
probably we have gone too far to do much along this
line.
Tenth, the development of long drives and distant
resorts should be kept in mind, and every opportunity
seiied to bring these into the general scheme of city
improvement. It must not be forgotten that these are
not alone for the benefit of our own people, but that
they are everywhere of the greatest value in attracting
and holding visitors. The proposed county road bond
issue has a direct bearing on this, since the construction
of good permanent roads and improvement of connect
ing roads will bring into easy access many delightful
places now hard to reach.
Eleventh, some day EI Paso may wish to develop
a large outlying park. For the present we should
devote our best energies to the intensive development
of the city's own resources in the way of facilities
for public pleasure, recreation, and health.
Twelfth, in planning new suburban additions or villa
sites in the valley or on the mesa, let us get away
from the "gridiron" plan and try to conform in a
degree to the "lay of the land", with an occasional
curve, odd park, and uneven surface left uneven, for
variety's sake.
These are some of the things El Paso ought to bear
in mind, for the making of a real city is more a matter
of taking thought than of merely spending money.
Everybody can and must help, for everybody shares in
the benefits of every bit of real permanent develop
ment work that is done.
County Commissioners Obey Law
Short Snatches From Everywhere
It snowed last week in New York state.
Europe is buying khaki in enormous quantities and
the southern cotton thread mills are running joyously.
West Virginia has a grand celebration of two good
roads days. Over 28,000 men got out on the roads
and bettered them, while men not able bodied con
tributed money, and women's clnbs provided luncheons
to encourage the cause.

The governor of Kansas rode 30 miles in mud and
rain to keep a promise he had made to address a grad
uating class, and when he got there he found that one
boy constituted the whole class. However the governor
pitched in and made his speech, and the boy probably
felt his great responsibility and so soaked in enough
benefit for 4a At least it is to be hoped that the
governor's ride and speech were not wasted.
As to the proposed road bond issue, it ought to be
understood by now that the commjssieners' court is
not "asking" for one cent for road bonds or for any
other bonds. From some sources the remark is fre
quently heard that the commissioners are "asking" for
this amount or that, for roads, and a few people seem
to think that the commissioners ought not to ask for
money for roads. As a matter of fact, the commis
sioners are only trying to comply with the law, which
makes it obligatory upon them to call a bond election
upon request of 50 taxpayers.
Two or three times the necessary 50 have petitioned
the commissioners to call an election upon $750,000
bonds for road purposes. The commissioners have no
option except to call the election. The law requires
it, and they are bound to give the people a chance
to express themselves upon the proposal, at the first
practicable opportunity.
So far, not a single argument has been advanced
from any source against the bond issue. A few per
sons have said that they think the proposed amount
is too large, or that the existing roads are bad, or
that the commissioners are inexperienced, or that "tax
payer" is afraid he is going to have to pay something
for the general benefit as well as his own, but not
a single argument has been read or heard why the
$750,000 bonds should not be voted.
On the contrary, abundant and convincing argu
ments have been" and are being presented in favor of
the bonds. Taxpayers will have no considerable in
crease in their taxes, but the general benefit win be
large, and the roads bnflt this time will, for the first
time in the county's history, be permanent roads.

Real Meaning Of Some ProvisiODs Of Contract
Recently Made By EJepnant Butte Water U
M
EMBERS of the Elephant Butte
ater Users' association have
from time to time given liberal
expression to the views entertained by
them regarding the controversy which
recently arose between the reclamation
service and the association concerning
the form of temporary water contracts
for the season of ISIS, under the Leas
burg diversion dam and canal; but lit
tle has been said relative to the other
side of the controversy. It is possible
that the public and particularly the
water users under the project might
be interested In hearing something
more of the other side of the matter,
which has already been touched upon
in The Herald.
When It was announced that a charge
of 50 cents per acre would be made for
stored water, a general protest was
made, and under date of March 1. 1915,
a Joint committee of the two water
users' associations met in the office of
the project manager at Bl Paso and
drafted a resolution directed against
the Imposition of this charge and ask
ing that there be collected only the
actual cost of operation and mainte
nance cf race, unit.
This resolution of the Joint commit
tee was on March I. 191S, approved by
the beard of directors of the Btepbaat

Mary Caw-Caw and the Tangled Curls."

SLSIE LITTLBTAIL. the rabbit girl;
Jennie Chipmunk, her cousin, and
Lulu and Alice Wibblewobble, the
two duck girls, were going to have a
little picnic in the woods. They had put
up their lunch in baskets, and as there
was no school in the afternoon, on ac
count of there having been examina
tions in the morning, they had the rest
of the day to themselves.
"We'll take a little trip to the woods
near crowland. and see Dncle Wiggily
Longears," proposed Susie.
"Oh. yes, let's!" cried Lulu, who had
passed with a nice, high mark in her
quacking lesson at the examination.
"And perhaps Nurse Jane Fuxzy
Wuzzy -will give us some ginger cake."
suggested Jennie Chipmunk, as she
looked at a flat stump they were pass
ing, to see if it had any dust on It.
Jennie was always looking for some
thing to dust, as she was learning to
be a housekeeper, like Miss Fuzzy
Wuzzy
But this time the wind bad dusted
the stump, so there -was nothing lor
Jennie to do. On she hurried with the
other animal and duck girls. They were
talking about what a nice time they
would have on their woodland picnic,
playing with their dolls, and all that,
when along came Prancy Strutabout,
a very proud and stylish little peacock
girl
" Oh, where are you going?" she
asked in a very fastidious voice.
To a picnic in the woods," answer-Mi
Susie. "Don't you want to come along?""
' Oh. the woods are such a common,
ordinary sort of place," said Prancy.
I really don't know I'm afraid I
might soil my feathers. But yes, I'll
come this once!"
Now the other girls did not -nuch
care whether or not Prancy Strutabout,
the peacock, came, but, of course, they
were too polite to say so; so Prancy
went along, walking most proudly, with
her fan of a tail spread out so alt the
other folk of animal land might see it
"She hasn't any lunch with her," said
Lulu wibblewobble, who was very
plainly colored in her feathers. "What
can she eat on the picnic?"
"No, she's too pcoud to carry a lunch
basket." said Susie..
"Neer mind I'll give her some of my
lunch." spoke Jennie Chipmunk, who
was very kind hearted indeed.
Oh, we won't let you do that," said
Alice, the duck girl. "We'll all give her
some," for Prancy was walking on
ahead and did not hear what was said.
Soon they came to a place in rhe
woods where they were to have the pic
nic Susie Littletail laid her doll,
Helena Applepie Chocolatecake. down
on a soft bed of leaves and set the
table, which was a big. flat stump.
While the animal girls were getting
out the good things to eat, and Prancy
Strutabout there was more of an au
dience to look at her, along came Mary
Caw-Caw, the crow girl.
"Oh. a picnic!" she croaked. "May I
come'"
"Of course." said Susie, and the oth
ers. That is all but Prancy Strut
I about said Susie could come.
"What,ryou a common crow girl come
to a picnic where I am?" cried the
peacock girL "Indeed, you cannot!
1 don't associate with crows. Why.
some of the feathers of my ancestors
w ere used to fan kings and queens. And
as for you crows, why, they put ragged
scare images up in the corn fields, to
drive you away. No, indeed, you can't
come to our picnic."
Mary Caw-Caw flew sadly away.
"Come back! Come back!" quacked
Lulu Wibblewobble "We want you,
Mary."
"No," answered the crow girL "Til
not come where 1 m not wasted," and
away she flew.
Good riddance!" said Prancy. "The
Idea of a crow girl coming to picnic
where I am'" and she spread out her
tail larger than ever
Wei! the picnic wasn't at all as nice

Pranrv was so proud and stl'Sh That
she would only eat rose leaf pudding 1
and violet candy, ana as there wasn't
much of that In the lunch baskets
Prancy took it ail. She would not cat
carrots or lettuce or cornmeal or hick
ory nuts.
And then, all of a sudden, something
happened. A grocery cat was taking a
basket of things through the woods,
when the wind blew out some sticky
flypaper, and before the peaoack girls
and the others could get out of the way
their hair and their curls and their
feathers and their fur was all tangled
up and stuck together on rthe flypaper
until they looked like a tangled ball
of yarn.
"Oh, this is awful!" cried Praney.
"Let go of me. Susie!"
T can't!" said the rabbit girL Tin
stuck fast and tangled up in your
feathers."
"And my curls are caught in Alice's
tall!" quacked Lulu.
"And my curly tail is tangled In
Prancy's feathers!" chattered Jennie.
"Oh. what shall we do?"
No one knew, and the more the ani
mal girls twisted and turned, the worse
their curls and feathers and fur be
came tangled and snarled.
And then, all of a sudden, they heard
some one say:
"Caw! Caw! Caw! Stand still a min
ute, girls, and I'll untangle you."
Down flew Mary Caw-Caw. the crow
girL With her sharp bill picked
strand after strand of the curls loose.
She separated the feathers and rubbed
butter on the sticky flypaper to make
It slippery- Soon Lulu, Alice, Jennie and
Prancy were free and all the tangles
were out. The grocery cat took his
flypaper, said he was sorry and went
on.
"Oh. Mary, we can't thank you enough
for untangling our curls," said Lulu, as
she and the others washed themselves
at a spring of water. "We can't thank
you enough!"
"No, indeed," spoke Susie. "And we

"Pleas do." begged Prancy. "I-rm
sorry I was proud to you. I see now
that even crow girls may help a pea
cock." So Mary stayed, and then the picnic
was Just lovely,' for every one was hap
py, and Prancy wasn't so proud after
that. And if the ice cream freezer

the additional provision that in com
putirg the cost of operation and main
tenance no charge should be made for
interest cr depredation.
First Protest Was Limited.
It is significant that at this time no
protest or objection whatever was In
terposed to the use of individual con
tracts or to the form of contract pro
posed for that purpose, and no protest
has since been made on behalf of the
EI Paso Valley association or Its mem
bers. A few days prior to April 10, 1915, tha
date set by the reclamation commis
sion for discontinuing the delivery of
water to those users who refused to
execute contract an additional pro
test was drafted by the Elephant
Butte Water Users' association and for
warded to Washington for considers,
tloa The main, and, in fact the only
substantial objection made was to the
service charge of 50 cents per acre for
stored water and to the other charges
la excess of actual operation and main
tenance. This Is borne Mt by various
Interviews and articles. There we-e In
jected Into the matter several legal
quibbles deigned perhaps to bolster up
and lend dignity to the main objection,
namely, the proposed charges. They
were objections to the provision for
temporary right of way during the life
of these yearly contracts, to the neces
sary control by the reclamation ser
vice over the various ditches to enable
delivery of water, and questioning the
definition of the terra "stored water."
Appeals to Washlncion-
Not securing the concessions asked
for, the Elephant Butte association
sent to Washington a committee whose
purpose it was to secure the modifica
tions desired. This committee upon
arrival in Washington submitted its
finm and was advised that the
charges as theretofore' fixed were In
accordance with the law and with the
policy adopted by the reclamation com
mission for the various projects and
would accordingly stand.
The committee then being convinced
that Its contention In this regard
would be anavalling. sought to have the
Individual contracts abolished, and
asked a return to the former plan of
executing a general contract, between
the United States and the association,
the latter in turn providing for the di
version and carrying of water.
Arguments of the Committee.
It was represented to the commiss'on
by the committee that operation under
Individual contracts was impracticable
because of the peculiar laws of New
Mexico relating to community ditches.
No authority in support of this con
tention seems to have been submitted.
and the committee evidently overlooked
or Ignored the fact that the fundamen
tal laws Fv? V--" ,"""?" ! been repeatedly advised that these
same as those in Texas, where lndi-
formally opened, which would necessi-
u. m rannsning or stored water
from the community ditches, and it is
difficult to understand how this could
be accomplished if their contention
against the temporary furnishing of
water under individual contracts is
tenable.
What Do Water Users GalnT
The reclamation commteskm. on the
ex parte statements of the committee
granted the request for return to the
former system of furnishing water un
der general contract with the associa
tion, for the reason that thv ,... -
I to be no controllng reason why this re-
i"st BHvuia not oe granted.
The only reason the other plan was
suggested by the reclamation service
was because it was thought to be to the
best Interest of "le water users, who
however, in the Mesilla valley, seem to
prefer the former system. It may be
well to consider what happens to tha
water user under the plan now adted
Under this scheme the individuals aia
required to pay the same rates as th s
prescribed in the individual contri-'ts
and. In addition, each water nser Is i
quired under the provisions of h:s . t,
tract to pay for stored water for ev- -acre
irrigated, whether he is a m T.xr
of the association or not. and regardless
of whether or not he desires the use of
stored wafer or at least the associa
tion is by this contract obligated to par
the government on this basis and pr -sumably
the association will look to
the individual for reimbursement.
Under the Individual contract each
applicant was given the choice of ap
plying far and using stored water onl .
normal flow, only, or both, while under
the present arrangement no such choice
Is accorded the water user. The gain
to the water user, therefore, under th
present arrangement is not clear
modification of this contract may be
asked.
Some Ditches Left Out.
The situation is not fully covered bv
this general contract in that there are
perhaps a half dozen community ditches
which desire stored water and perhar
four or more community ditches which
before the expiration of the present
irrigation season may desire water
from government canals, and the con
tract secured by the committee sent to
Washington does not cover these fea
tures. This will necessitate an addi
tional contract and difficulty may bs
met In securing it
The committer upon Its return frort
Washington and before, emphasized
what it claimed was a concession ob
tained by them, namely that the excess
funds -collected under these contracts
would be a credit upon the project. This
was no concession obtained by the com
mittee, since this has always been the
policy of the service and the water
users Individually and collectively have
vidsal contracts have been used for
many years without an serious diffi
culties having been encountered.
Water from the Franklin canal has
been furnished successfully to users
under Individual contracts through the
Socorro. Clint and Salatral ditches un
der conditions almost Identical with
those obtaining la New Mexico on the
Leaaburg canal, and water has been
furnished from the Franklin canal gen
erally under Individual con-racts.
The association while contending that
water could not be furnished under in
dividual contracts has at the same time
requested that the Leasburg unit be
funds would be a credit upon the Ri
Grande project.
