ASSOCIATED PKJC88
The Times is the only daily paper published
In Kl Paso with the Associated Press dis-
patch^ .
THAT ALLEGED «IJfV tSlON."
In yesterday's Issue of the Timk-. ap-
peared among our regular Associated
Press dispatches one from Albuquerque,
N. Mslating that one Captain Friend,
of the Kl Pnao Hifles. had opened a re-
cruiting office for Cutting's illlimsterlng
expedition into Mexico, that 21if names
had already been enrolled, and that the
invading'expedition would he thorough-
ly organized within a month. The dis-
patch further stated that the invaders
would rendezvous at El Paso, etc. The
lateness of ttic hour at which the dis-
patch reached our office, prevented our
making any comment upon It In yester-
day's issue, and all we could do was to
publish it in the shape It reached us.
We believe that the regular correspond-
ent of the Associated Press at Albuquer-
que Is Col. Albright, publisher of the
Albuquerque Democrat, who would
hardly send snch a sensational dispatch
unless there was some kind of a founda-
tion for It. We presunte that Captain
Friend is talking up a wild scheme of
invasion at the ►treet corners of Hall-
road Avenue, In Albuquerque, and
that countless schooners of beer are
drank by an admiring mob to the suc-
cess of the wild scheme. We may read-
ily concede that such is the fact. But
if our candid opinion is asked about the
whole matter, our answer would be
that there ie nothing in it, and that the
so-called Invading scheme consists only
of the frothy vaporing* of a few cranky
schemers, who want to foist themselves
into a cheap notoriety by very repre
hensiblc means. For extremely repre-
hensible this silly talk Is, no doubt. It
has a tendency to disturb the quiet
course of trade. It unnecessarily alarms
otir neighbors across the river, It gives
our beautiful, rising young city a bad
name throughout the country, and will,
if not checked in time, fasten upon it
the stigma of being the hot-bed of plots,
sensations, filibustering and treason.
Of one thing the country at large, find
the people of Mexico may rest assured,
and that is that the citizens of Kl Paso
do not countenance any scheme that
may disturb the friendly relations be-
tween the United Stateg and our sister
republic, and that any man or set of
men, however "desperate in the ex-
treme" th«y may be, as soon an they
set foot In Kl Paso with invading or III-
ibusterlng intent, wiil be at once taken
hold of by the strong arm yfthe law,
municipal, state and federal, and will
Bland a lirst rate chance to do their
country some service iu a well-organiz-
ed chain-gang.
THE FEUEKAL BUILDING.
A petition was circulated yesterday
along Kl Paso street, addressed to Hon,
Thomas 1>. l-'ister, of the United States
treasury department,who is expected to
arrive next Monday and decide upon tho
site for our federal building. The doc-
ument very forcibly sets forth the ne-
cessity of locating our federal building
near the business center of ttie city, and
truthfully rehearses the great Inconve-
nience lo which our citizens have been
subjected for a long time in the pre wit
location ot the post office. The petition
asks that the new structure, which com-
bines the poitolllce, custom house and
federal court apartments, be located
not further than one block from Kl Paso
street, the business pari of the city, and
il came to us very numerously signed,
having the names of our wcathlest and
most prominent merchants, lawyers, etc.
The Ti.viks joins in the opinion lliat
such an Important building should not
be placed at a point where present busi-
ness interests will suffer, and if it Is pos-
sible, as it certainly must be, that pasl In-
conveniences can be averted and tile
good and comfort of all concerned eitu
be secured, then by all means, Mr. Plater,
select a site not too far from El Paso
street, and reasonably accessible from
all sides!
Out! board of trade will be represent-
ed on the 18th Inst, at Chicago, where
the railroad tyrants have agreed to
meet and consider the freight business
into Kl Paso, If these gentlemen really
want to understand the situation and
Can b convinced that low lales to I'.iis
distributing point will culminate bene-
ficially both to 1 hem and to our people,
they will have abundant data for such a
resolution. In addition to Iheexhau.t-
ive report of Pool Commissioner I.ect,
who has entered I to every detail and
circumstance relevant to the question,
they will be furnished :i pamphlet on
the subject, published heie by our mer-
chant* under the able supervision of
Messrs. KetelsMi & Degeiau. llesldcs
at the request of some of the traffic
agents a delegation from the city board
of trade will go to Chicago lo appear
before the meeting and further repre-
sent all fact* and answer all question*.
We «re glad to say that with all these
preparations we hope for a favorable re-
sult. El Paso more rthan any south-
western city merlin easy handling by-
railroad corporations.
A Santa Fe man who has just return-
ed from Los Angeles and San Diego
says: "The land speculator has gone
clean daft In ^-""t'o rn California, and,
lilce the opium eater, strives to commu-
nicate his disease to every one with
reaction that is sure to follow will be
terrible. It is not a poor man's coun-
try. The homeieeker with a few hun-
dred dollars stands not the ghost of a
show for success. Compared with the
natural resources of New Mexico it is as
a mere bauble, which tbe keen shaft of
time will ere long cause to collapse."
The California Grape Interest.
The .Sacramento Record-Union says:
"The growers that have raised tbe tine
varieties of wine grapes for claret and
white wine have, on an average, real-
ized from their grape? $80 perton, which,
at the average yield of four tons to the
acre from vineyards of three to five
years growth, averages from $(10 to $100
per acre. This would seem to be largely
in excess of the value of grain grown on
the same lsnds that will produce grapes
without irrigation.
"California seems to be the favored
spot of the world for this Interest. Cen-
tral and northern California can pro-
duce the fruits of France, Italy, Spain,
South America, and in fact all the tropi-
cal regions of the civilized world, and in'
great perfection. Our raisins have lo a
very large extent stopped the importa-
tion of the Malaga, and five years more
will lind Californlons exporters instead
of buyers.
".The brandy now produced in Califor-
nia has to a large e*tent stopped the
importation of the so-called tine cognac*
—finely flavored spirits from potatoe*
and beets, mixed, perhaps, with some
brandy from the refuse of the grape
crop."
Henry Ward Ueechcr has arrived at
his home in Brooklyn in good health,
but fagged out by his journey. He had
nothing tossy concerning his trip, but
the more loquacious Mrs. iteecher said
that the only fault she found with the
other side wan the climate and the
bread, the latter being so hard that it
could almost he us* d for cunnon balls.
