The following .onimetit on an ar ticle published in the Enterprise a few weeks past, iippejiretl in the El Fenix tfi weeks ago. It is not our (iesitefb enter into rtmtrover sy r-'narlinn the matter, but we do want to L)u clearly represented: "The writer is ambiguous in the .reflection, '"It is a dis(,'ruee to the citizens etc.,. but it is uot cleui whether it is the "uuIIq race,'' or the "prehistoric people," that is the disgrace in a civilized community. Be that as it may the comment is the accustomed sensation that little slingers of ink have made for years. And the vice, is deeper rooted in the femules who claim to be writers in ' the territory. They bucome horrified at the Bull Fights Oh! and what brutality in the practices of the Spaniards.. We ask you puri tan Sir if you make the sln of the cross, about the horror of the biir barous relic seen, in pugilistic con tests and in foot bull? You will say.yes, but they are entered into with, full knowledge of the partici pants. Yes. sir, and where is I he knowledge and the puritan luiiiuui .ity in roping contests when with . all the brutal force of a horse and at the danger of life to the rider the neck of an nunx-eat frightened steer is broken solely .to gaiu miserable prize of a few dollars Yes children by this are made sen siblennd noble, humane nnd sym .pathetic .for the dumb brute ani inal. It is certain that the puritan does not see the beam in. Ids own eye for seeing the mote ia that o .the stranger, tin regard to the n fereuce "to the disgrace to the citi zeiw," we will say that no one has called him to our laud and he who ctoea not like the saddle may throw- it a way and get 'On a bareback There is beauty in frankness, col league. do not speak ambiguously for we all know the tactics of this an 1 the truth. Out of sweet tllhws my Thercuruhnrn tliinir.-evil tUntuinuid l.hesonl Aud for greater torment want That it be known and not tolil mkxmt. .And we ofFer no apology for the iying." If the author of the id ove com ment had been inclined to inter-, pret correctly the article in the. Eni'EHPBIKE on the gallo irace, lie' would have , discovered that the' meaning was in no way auihiirti ; ous but was quite as clear as plain English could make rtt and was a direct attack upon n hideous cus- itDin wlr'ch should have been -obso-: lete one hundred years ago, and not upon any class r,f (people, ex cepting those people who 'insist upon continuance of such digust ing brutality, as we state! before, to these we olFer no apology. If this apply to the author of the! comment so good -and 'there is nothing ambiguous ulxmt that. The author goes on to site the prize light, roping cftiitcsts and foot ltall indulged in by those who 'have the same distorte I view of sport. We are not championing these g'lines. the best intellect all over the ounlTy have been oppos ing prize tights, und the laws are such now that'only in n few places are they mllowefl to be In Id. If the author will consult the stat utes of New Mexico he will see that T-iping .contests haw; been leg islated against in this Territory. nd the foot hall question is still under grw.t agitation, Yourargu meats are most too weak to stand alone and when yon wind p by! throwing mud at tin female writ-i erS yon admit Hie weakness for; tiiiid throwiim is tho last resort of j decrepit writer.
