EL PASO HERALD 10 Week-End Edition, April 15-16, 1916 "PEOPLE'S TICKET IS Oil GANG;" "CLEAN COURTHOUSE OF OHIO" i. "V" iB ST COLLEGE County and City Democratic Club Urges Members to Get Out. and Work to Beat the Ticket Named Mon day Night; Governor Ferguson and Congressman Smith Endorsed; Also Lea's Administration. GOV. J. E. FERGUSON and con gressman W. R. Smith were In domed by the El Paso County and City Democratic club at the meeting Friday night A.t the same meeting: an nouncement was made of the selection by the executive committee of J. F. 1 awaon. city clerk, as campaign man ager for tlie ticket endorsed several weeks uko by the organisation. The meeting was the most largely at tnrii df nnv s-AtherlnE of the club in Heveral weeks References were made In spee hi s to the opposition that is de- eloping. "Got to Heat 'Km." President W. B 'Ware called atten uon to the proposed meeting of Monday night for the purpose of nominating an opposition ticket. "It makes no dlffer- nee what thev do," he said. "All we -have got to do Is to beat them, and that is just wlwt we propose to do." lie urged that bitterness be avoided and urged that the campaign be conducted on impersonal lines. Same Old Rang. -I have been told." said Eugene I Harris, 'that next Monday night the People's ticket' will be launched. That ticket was about 1000 votes behind in the last city campaign. That is not the people's ticket It is the same old gang. Jn starting out, the opposition will use the argument that this organization has alien inn. a. 'ring.' but those lntersted n this ..ionization have the Interests of the Hj .ind county at heart and are not in favor of making a ring organiza tion of tins club. Fight on Commissioners. "We .ire now entering udoii a cam paign with two tickets ijj the field One is the old 'ring' ticket. The other is the EI l'aso County and City Demo cratic club ticket The fight will cen ter around what the county commis sioners' court and the city administra tion hae done and have not done. The opposition tannot go Into the meeting Monday night and censure the acts of the majority of the commissioners' i ourt without endorsing the mlnorit. They cannot criticise the majority mem beis without endorsing Judge Pool, and if thty do that thej must endorse him for a second term. I have merely this to sav. that this commissioners' court u ill compare ery favorably with that . i JikIkc IJjlarH court and those that i re. ede.l it There will be criticism of . MfitUiini made by this court in i ..id building But vie must not forget Hie mom i- thrown away by previous . urt in building roads that this court I, .is been tailed Upon to replace with the money they have in hand. Clean Out Courthouse. "We must not atop until every ad herent of the old 'ring" organization. i erv mother's son of them, has been . leaned out of the courthouse And when the new ones go In we will hold iliem accountable to their trust. ' Then is something rotten some where when the city has to go outside rhe court hi. use to employ counsel to prosecute lotators of laws whom men .row in office have sworn to prosecute." 1 A (111 left, candidate tor Judge of the 661 It district court, made a short talk ' If enough of ,vou support me to 1 1 it nrt" he -.aid, "I promise to dls li.itgi nrv duties without regard to frit ml hii I am entirelj wih you In tniK iiuipaigu J rtjoiced in the suc tiss of tli. ilub in the last campaign. and I urge now that you support the entire ticket as it has been endorsed." I'raltte Ferguson. E. V. Brake spoke in behalf of the candidacy of Gov. Ferguson to succeed himself. He declared that Gov. Ferguson Is a real governor and that he is pav ing the way for prosperity in Texas. In support of this assertion he referred to the governor's advocacy of a banking system that will help the farmers of the state. He moved that Gov. Ferguson receive the endorsement of the club, and the motion was seconded by mayor Tom I.ea. who declared that the Ferguson administration has been good. He urged the endorsement also on the ground that west TexaB should have a voice in public affairs in the state. The motion carried unanimously. City Administration Good. A. P. Coles expressed himself as pleased at the action of the club. "Gov. Ferguson has given us a most excellent administration," he said, "and I desire to say also that our county administra tion could have been a whole lot worse, and our city administration has been very good. There is another man I would like to see endorsed. He Is con gressman W. R. Smith. Congressman Smith is so busy in Washington work ing for a brigade post for El Paso, working in behalf of the Elephant Butte project and our water problems that he has been unable to give any atten tion to his candidacy." A rising vote was called for and the vote was unanimous. Opposes Endorsement. Leigh Clark, candidate for district at torney, stated that friends had asked him to nut ludsre W. C. Morrow, of Hlllsboro, candidate for associate Jus tice, before the club for endorsement. The motion was seconded, but opposi tion developed to tbe action on the ground that the club would be getting into trouble In extending its endorse ment. President Ware and Frank Jud klns spoke against the action. "I deny that the club has any right to bind 4000 men to vote for judge Morrow. We will be out of our element in doing so. I am not going to vote for judge Morrow because I have pledged myself to vote for another." Judge Clark withdrew his motion with the consent of A. P. Coles, who had seconded it. THREE GET HOMESTEADS IN THE CHIRICAHUA FOREST Albuquerque, N. M.. April II. Dur ing the months of January. February and March a total of 357 acres of land within the Chlrieahua National forest. Arlsona. were listed with the secretary of the interior and will shortly be opened to entry under the forest homstead act. The lands thus listed were applied for individually by the applicants and each one of these tracts was examined by a forest officer and found to be more valuable for agriculture than for forest pur poses. Those whose applications within the Chlrieahua national forest were fav orably acted upon are: Frank O. Elvev. Cloverdale. New Mexico; Don J. Cox, Chlrieahua, New Mexico: O. F. Hicks, Douglas, Arizona. In addition to this, 1456 acres were listed to applicants within other na tional forests in Arizona, and 1625 acres within national forests In New Mexico. In the Path of El Paso' Progress The Addition With the Location i -"5aw 7 An Ideal Homesife Costs No More Jhan The Ordinary Kind A Real home should be built in a subur ban locality, away from the noise, 'heat and crowded conditions of the down town portion of a city. In El Paso this locality has proved to be Morning Side Heights, the suburban district around the Country Club, a district desirable because of Its Restrictions The lact that lime kiln, sand pita, slaughter houses, tents, tent houses, machine shops, manufactories and dairies, are prohibited makes this the Ideal Homesite and worthy of your cartful consideration. Dr. D. W. Detwiler Tells of the Effect of Associa tions on the Lads. Dr. I. AV. Detwiler' nas oeen for many years in close touch with the Young men's Christian association, and be lieves the Association Is rendering a work of unique value to the students In colleges, at a point very generally overlooked. "That college life proves the ruin of many a young man is. or course, recognised, but we do not all appre ciate that it necessarily involves cer tain temptations we must 'systemati cally guard against." he said. "A few years ago a prominent rltixen nr Chi. , cago was vigorously stirring the ques- i tion of the worth of collegebred men . to the community. As a contribution to this frequently roetirrine- tnnie Howard Eltlng. then Dresldent of thn i Chicago Association of Commerce, cast J up a balance sheet of the college man's cnaracierisuce.. xi cannot be quoted In detail, but It' furnishes an interesting analysis, and Is mentioned here because It bears out by the voice of a prominent witness the conclusions of many care ful observers; that whether or not a college training Is desirable, tbe pro cess of getting it involves certain dan gers and tendencies that may, and do, work out as weaknesses and handi caps. A Student's Temptation. "The student life period from 15 to 25 is marked by at least the following points: "It abounds In n number of physical temptations peculiar to budding man hood. "It Is a period of religious doubt. "'There is prevalent a spirit of as sumed superiority. "The burden of responsibilities lies lightly. "In respect to physical temptations referred to, it should be said that this is not a problem neculiar to the college man. lie shares It with all young men of his age, but it is a very real I part of what any guide of college (or I othen youth has to deal with. It Is also true that the religious experience of many young men outside the college field finds the years mentioned a spe cial storm and stress period but it must be admitted that the challenging effect of many lines of thought taken up in college, and the widening and deepening of the thought life there, exposes the college man more than his fellow to unsettling influences. A Dangerous Period. "This very enrichment of the mental outlook this introduction to the dis tinguished men of all time even as done through the medium of books and lectures too often, unfortunately, pro duces an elation of spirit, and worse 'big head.' This is unduly prevalent on the college campus. "One -of the 'most difficult handicaps to overcome' Is that deadened, or les sened, sense of responsibility, which is an almost Inevitable by-product of the removal of ablebodied and active-minded j oung persons from the turmoil and struggle of a work-aday world to the sheltered and privileged seclusion- of the academic circle. The world wags on without them. Why should they worry? The Y. 31. C. A. Answer. "What answer has the T. M. C. A. student department for these weak nesses which threaten to, and often do, serieosly cripple the otherwise ex cellent product1 of our universities? The same answer that the Association has found far Its work throughout virile Christianity. A real .spiritual life of prayer and communion as a bulwark against temptation. The thoughtful and sympathetic study of. and with, the Great Teacher, for those who see through a glass darkly. A counsel of humility for those who "must learn that 'God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise.' A course In stewardship to bring home the expectation that 'Unto whom soever much is given, of him much shall be required."""

The American people, long known as the world's chief coffee drinkers, actually consume 40 percent of the amount sold in the international markets, accord ing to figures announced by the bureau of foreign and domestio commerce. More than 1.000.000.006 pounds of coffee came to this country last year. Ger many is normally second, but the war cut on her imports last year and made France second with receipts less than one-fourth as large as America's pur chases. The entire United Kingdom consumer only one-thirty-flfth the amount of coffee drunk in the United States. The United States ranks third in tea drinking, with United Kingdom first and Russia second. Coffee Imports show that the approx imate per capita consumption in the United States is ten pounds, tea seven pounds and cocoa one and two-thirds pounds. That new, black - : -J mm JL. JL - 1 U fie JPsSnjmPyV r JHE.WI-CSr.fsWIV?IL-'7 Hi -rf IT took 47 years of Kubber-Manufacturing Experience to produce this wonderful new Goodrich Rubber. It took the best efforts of the largest, and ablest. Research Department possessed by any-Rubber Factory in America to develop it. But, it was wortii all the time, effort, and skill, required to develop it. Because, it has done for Goodrich Rubber what certain other marvellous Alloys have done for Steel and Bronze, i. e., multiplied its EFFICIENCY for the purpose intended. And, it has done this without increasing the cost of Goodrich Tires to Consumers. ONE of its most valuable characteristics, for Tire (and Shoe) purposes, is its CLING quality its tenacious grip on smooth and slippery surfaces. Through that it gives its maximum Traction with a minimum of Friction. When you put on the Brakes to stop the Car, or throw in the Clutch to start the Car, the Tires made of this black "BAREFOOT" Rubber instead of grinding against the ground for Traction, CLING to it, as your bare foot would cling to a slippery floor. That's why we've finally christened it, and trade-marked it, as t'Barefoot" Rubber. Get a sliver of it, from any Goodrich Branch or nearest Dealer. You'll find it stretch almost as much, and return to shape almost as instantly, as a pure Rubber band. Weigh a Goodrich "Barefoot" Tire of any size against the cor responding size of other makes of Tire, and you'll find itmanypounds lighter, though many "Miles" stronger. Drive it, and you'll find in Goodrich "Barefoot" Tires a live' liness, a quick response to power, a tenacity of traction, and all this with a Mileage capacity which will surprise and delight you. ! J "i. WE developed this "Barefoot Rubber" primarily foruse in our now famous "Silvertown Cord" Tire which, last year, showed such marvellous ENDURANCE on the Race Track, at over 100 Miles per hour. But we now make it irito Goodrich FABRIC Tires, Goodrich Inner Tubes, Goodrich Motor-Cycle Tires,- Goodrich Truck Tires, Goodrich Bicycle Tires, Goodrich Rubber Boots, Overshoes, Soles and Heels, as well as into Silvertown Cord Tires. Because, in all of these its characteristics of "Cling, Spring; Stretch, Strength, and Lightness" are first requisites. Now, compare GOODRICH Fair-List prices with prices you are ?uoted for same size Tires of other Brands, that have not the wonder ul Resilience and Cling-quality of this new black "Barefoot" Rubber, which can be had in no other Tires than those made by THE B.
