LasVecs Daily Gazette.
S ATURD Á Y.' S E PTEM B E R 25, 1880
The Gazette'and the New Town.
We notices in the Optic of last
GAZETILLA.
night an article which is both unfair
and vituperative. It copies our para
graph on the subject of the queer ap
pearance which the new town has
6incc the fire and charges us, in very
loud terms, of attempting to "stab the
very vitals of a commuuity whose in
terests are in common with the Gazette.''
Now look here, Mister man and ad
junct by proxy to the staff of the
Optic, wc advise you to go a little
slow before you begin to criticise
the policy of a newspaper which you
have not known for any great length
of time, or else call at our office and
Ve favored with a file of the Daily
Gazítte and co if you can get into
your head what every fair minded
citizen already has there, viz, the
thorough understanding that the new
town of East Las Vegas has never had
a more ardent champion than our
paper. "Wc have joined in her wonder
ful progress, with praise; wc have
shared her sorrows. We Have never
failed to chronicle all that wc know
of interest that has transpired within
her borders. Our reporters spend a
portion of their time in the new town
. every day, and at least one half of our
local columns are devoted to new
town news..
We believe that Vegas is one com
munity; not one word has ever ap
pearcd hi our columns which has fa
vored any sectionalism, and we refer
the hot-headed writer of the article
in the Optic to our articles of the past
few days strongly urging incorpora
tion, wc said:
'Union is strength, and never in the
history of the two towns were our
citizens so closely united, heart and
hand, in support of the common weal
as they are to-day. During the con
flagration, west side men worked like
beavers to aid their cast side compet
itors. Wc verily believe that I lie reverses
which have overtaken us will he our
blessing. Wc have something to
work for with our united strength,
and that is nothing more nor less, thau
the protection of our property and
theguarinty of security to individual
rights.
Thcro is u willing mind to do somo-
thins in this direction, to establish a
municipal union as was evidenced by
the meeting of eitiz"ns on Sunday to
- establish a lire department.'
Now what can our hyper-critical
competitor iiud in any article in its
columns which favors as wc do and
have done, a community of thought
and action. There is no one who will
deny, in his sober moments, that each
town is necessary to the others wcl
fare.. We have always claimed it, wc
claim it now; but wc challenge the
Optic to show us aline ot strong
sentiment where it admits that the
old town is necessary for anybody's
welfare. They cannot show it; the
Optic has selfishly pursued the plan of
furthering its own and the new town's
iutcrpsts, especially its own. and if
it thinks best to pick up our para
rranhs and misconstrue them for the
purpose of making capital by the pro
cedure, it will only find that it adver
tises us and shows to a fair minded
public that there is only one paper in
San Miguel comity that takes upou
itself the task, and performs it, of
combining in its columns the news
and events of the two great commun
ities which arc really one.
The recent tire occurred in new
town: our elaborate account of
it was copied into all the
territorial papers wc have
seen, except the Red River
Chronicle. ThcPcnvct papers used
our account.. Ono would naturally
suppose that the East town paper
would bo quoted; but no, impartial
judges who were never in our midst
found in the Gazette's account more
news and more of interest relative to
the great event la the community to
the vitals of which the Optic says wc
are attempting to stab.
i r Our course has ,been conservative
" always as that of the Optic has been
radical.
We said nothing of thu queer look
of the burned district that wc should
not have 6aid if the ashes were around
the plaza.
To conclude, wo would say to any
other who might have misunderstood
the paragraph alluded to, that wc
who wrote it and who wrote the arti
cle above on incorporation, belong to
the cast side ourselves. Can you im
t ' nsiho. thennnv hostile feeling back of
the inoffensive paragraph ?

Democratic Convention.
Notico'is hereby given to the peo
ple of San Miguel county, New Mex
ico, that on the 5th day ot October a
Democratic county convention will
be held at ten o'clock, a. m., in the
court house at Las Vegas for the pur
pose of nominating candidates for the
Legislature and other officers of the
county of San M'guel, Territory of
New Mexico. Full delegations arc
expected from every precinct.

pointed to attend to the matter. A
good time is anticipated as is always
the case at the entertainments of this
organization.
--
The Red River Chronicle makes
the. folio wins: sensible comments on
the present territorial campaign:
Can there really be no paper pub
lished in New Mexico, without having
slurs thrown at it for not taking
sides in political matters.' What dif
ference does it make, to us down here
among the cattle ranches, whether tho
Rcpublicaus elect Luna, or Otero, is
scut to congress with a Democratic
majority. Neither the one nor the
other can do us much good m con
gress, and to do no harm, - all, that
may be asked hi' a delegate. Any inau
with common sense ough" i be able
todo that. Then why so :, .ch hub
bub about nothing. Wc arc sick and
tired of politics and righting the bat-
tic for others. There isn't one man
among a thousand who runs for office
honest enough to remember the pled
ges made before the election. After
the certificate of election is in his
hand a little axe of his own is gcucr
ally ready for the grindstone. We
don't want to be responsible for oth
ers' misdoings any more; if the man
whom ve favor with our vote, turns
out to be unfit, we shall vote for an
other to fill his place. This is our priv
ilege as private citizens. Let those
who wish, do the dirty work, for
lucre. We do üot want any in ours,
and under no circumstances whatever
shall our papers be devoted' to poli
tics. At least while we have con
trol.
Editor Gazette:
Last evening's Optic, under the cap
tion of ''inexcusable ignorance' con
tains an article ridiculing the
Gazette's French a name in the
telegraph, which seems to me to be an
entire misrepresentation, as the Ga
zette of yesterday morning has no
such dispatch as that indicated by the
Optic.
Noticing a couple of columns of
Spanish in the Uplic I read it and for
curiosity sake counted the errors. The
result was one hundred and one in
the two columns.
