A 4'orreapiindent'fi Opinion f f be 1 ' Fiesta de flttiuIaiupV ' ' ' , El Paso, I) fx-. 8th. 1881 Las Vegas Gazette. A stranger arrivins; here to-day would say that there was no other town in the southwest, or indeed anywhere- with one half the life and buáinesa activity But this is largely owing to the influx of people brought here - by curiosity to know what the Mexican "Fiesta of Saní ta Gupdalupe" is like. . This is the opening day and a disinterested observ cr would say it was very 'like an affair gotten up for the especial benefit of gamblers and whisky dealers. Both classes are here in iull force t with the usual force of confidence men, thieveS and rogues; "; The. "fiesta" is really ( nothing more this year than a speculation gotten up by parties in. Paso del Norte to fleece , the innocent who are, attracted, here by j. the posters iind fid verüseru.ejits( scatter ed over the country. The whole affair is simply a prolonged drinking and gambling carnival. ; r The.j aujimals sectitcd $ for -the vbull ' fights are I suAóranniiafeáiot Joi work stock, whoso trembling limbs have scarce brought them from the ranch the river. Thera is really not, a Square fight in a gross of them, and as was re marked by a Texas cow-boy yesterday, "a good American calf would stampede the lot." The bull fights, which aré relied on to draw - the crowd will be found to bé a rl diculous farce.calculat cd perhaps, to make the "groundlings' laugh in derision: but the "judicious,1 who come to see a real bull fight, will return home to grieve. , . The number of arrivals thus far, is rather qisaupoihtyng to the managers ' but the town is pretty full of - the class above and more of the same kind com ' ing.; ' The "birds of prey" outnumber the victims. , : i i. ., v 'The weather U inaguilicent,, but the oldest inhabitants predict a storm soon and indications point that way to the weatherwise. y , , , .. ... :. , . Guadalupe. , i Lm Vea-as Coal and t'obo Company. i . i The company is composed of F. A. Blake, L. H. Blythe and. G. P. Conklin .all active, sterling business men. They propose to engage in the business large ly and keep constantly, on hand an abundance of coal and coke (to supply the whole town. The office will be on Lincoln avenue, opposite Lockhnrt ' Co s. The coal shute is on the track. They hare obtained the right to all the coke made by the gas company. They will keep from fifty to one hundred tons of coal on hand always and purchasers can pe supplied on snort notice. A lh Nirlholq Ihe Caroouato Flell.
