President Madero WiH Hsr* Opportunity
A* on* man almoat th* Mexican nation ha* very )u*t-
fy determined to give Prealdent Madero a chance. With
the awakening of tho national aplrtt ha* come the
aprlngtng Into Intent* life of the dormant principle of
Jusrtlee. ^hlch ha* Inspired the determination that thl*
man of lh« people who risked hi* life and fortune on th*
single lakue »f r„n*tltutlonnl government, xhall have the
opportunity of putting alllaf hi- Idea* of reform Into
practical execution, together with ample time to work
out the plan* that have lain *o clone to hi* heart.
Since hi* aiutumption of the dull** to which he waa
called by the expressed preference of ninety per cent of
the voter* of Mexico, President Madero ha# not been
given a #<iuarc deal. ll» had hardly airtmmed the dutlea
of hi* position before he wa* beset by the Intrigue of
envious rivals and would-be political leader* who began
a systematic campaign of not only discredlyng hi# offic-
ial actions, but gravely impugning hla actual Intention#.
Men that he had served with upon the field of battle
who had more love of coin tharj love of country In their
sordid and unWorthy heart*, concocted schemes for raid-
ing the national treasury, which were aided and abetted
by the misfit* with which he had surrounded hlm*clf in
his official cabinet to such an extent as to prove par-
tially successful, and to add to the Intricacies of an al-
ready trying situation, these cabinet misfits began to
build around and about them political machines the ob-
ject of Which was to further their own Interests at the
expense of tin- Mexican nation and to the continued dis-
credit of the Madero administration. A cleaning out of
the cabinet followed, which was accompanied by the
hasty exit from .the republic of at least one cabinet
member, who has continued on this side of tin. border
hi* machinations and petty Intrigue against Madero and
constitutional government.
Then there developed the Tteyea abortion, which for
a short time was designated with the dignity of a revo-
lution. While this fiasco amounted to nothing more
titan a senile exhibition of more Mexican aslnlnlty, It
was of a disturbing arid distracting nature Jn Its effect
Upoft lb>. general stuatlon and greatly hampered the
president In his efforts to hrfcig about the conditions
that bHd been promised bis people. The Zapata rebel-
lion, In ‘Morelos and adjoining states, was also causing
trouble and adding to the porptexttles of an aggravating
situation, and It was then that the final straw' was latd
on tin pile that had been heaped upon the executive
back.
Pasciial Orozco, who having been In communication
with other conspirators against the government for sonic
time will) the Intention of lending another abortive cf-
foil in overthrow the government, showed up tn the na-
tional capital with n demand for 60.000 pesos addi-
tion lo rite like sum which he had succeeded In extract-
ing from tlie national treasury by the aid and conniv-
ance of Emilio Vastjiiez (Ionic/, prior to fils enforced re-
tirement from the caldnel. 111 ^.1 eirisnd for additional'
spoils being promptly turned down by President Ma-
dero, In. resigned from the servlee of the Madero go<.-
ertimenl to take effect March 1, and returned to the
city of i'lilhuahun, ulere he employed the Interim in
working out the details of Ills p'ol for the delivery of
tile stale of Chihuahua over to the Clciitlflen conspira-
tors through the medium of their hirelings, the lied
flag looters, who were thus enabled to obtain their
present very insecure control of the state.
The Mexican people, while Impetuous, are a slow
moving people, deferring until tomorrow too often the
things that should lie done today, and while they were
cognizant of these conditions, there was a general apathy
exhibited until the worried and continually harassed ex-
ecutive Issued a proclamation In which he appealed to
the hcsl of the Mexican people to rally to the saving of
the Mexican nation. The nation awoke1 ut a bounij,
realizing Us remlssness and Ingratitude and determined
should lie given n square

THK PALLING or THE GREAT
METEOR IN 1*80.
Peco», Tex., March 14, 1»12.
To the El B*so Time#:
In a recent issue of your paper I
noticed an account of the finding, by
a ranchman, in his pasture north of
Lubbock, Tex., of a metortc stone, a.j
description of earn* and that It wa#
suppo»ed to have fallen there In the
year 1*80, Thl* 1* doubtless the lame
meteor that fed In that country on
the 19th day of April of that year,'
the falling and explbilon of which
wa* witness*by* your correspondent
and several of his companion*.’
At (hat time the writer wa* a mem-
ber of Company “C" of the frontier _ ..........
battalion, commanded by Captain <3. feet or more In
O. Arrington, and our company was
stationed at Dewy Lake, near the
mouth at Blanco canyon, On the head
waters of the Brazo* river, and in the
northeast corner of Crosby county,
about ten miles east of Mount Blanco
postoffice, at that time kept by Hank
Bmlth, and about twenty-five mile*
cast of the llftlc town of Hstacada,
the Quaker town mentioned In the ar-
ticle above referred to.
1 wa*' a non-commissioned officer
In the company and with a squad of
men Ntad been ordered on a scout to
the north toward* Toole canyon. On
the eighth and ninth days o{ April
of that year there raged In that part
of the country the most terrific wind
and sand storm 1 ever witnessed, the
wind blowing from the northwesf at
the ratc'of fifty or sixty miles an hour
for forty-eight consecutive hours, but
the following day, the tenth of the
month, was as calm, clear and beau-
tiful a day as 1 ever saw.
We left our headquarter* on that
day about 2 o'clock p. in., starting
north on the scout. We had only
proceeded a couple of mile* on our
journey gtid I wa# riding forty or
fifty yards in advance of the other
men, when one of the men, O. W *
Forhs, who'afterward*, tn 1889, wa*
a police officer in El Paao, called to
me to look. I turned in my saddle
and looked back at the men. Forbs
pointed up and lo the north: I turned
my head and looked In the direction
Indicated, and I saw one of the most
wonderful and strpnge sight* I ever
beheld. A hgge dark mass, apparent-
ly fifty feet or more In diameter,
traveling athwart the heavens at a
terrific rate of speed, from a north-
ea*t, to a southwest direction, with
a brilliant blaze of tire a hundred
length and a trail
of white smoke mile* in length fol-
lowing it.
We came to a dead halt and stood
perfectly still watching It closely. It
Miemed to be failing gradually toward
the earth and wheal It reached a
point about fifty or one hundred feet
from the earth we saw the huge mass
explode Into hundred# of fragments
which, blazing and smoking, scatter-
ed in every direction, and fully a half
minute, later pame the terrific report,
I felt my hyse crouch under fpe and
the earth tremble.
This report wa# heard distinctly
for hundred# of mile#, as we after-
ward# learned through the South Tex-
as newspaper#.
I fully believe that if the ranch-
man will look more carefully he will
find a much larger stone than the
one you describe, though It may have
buried Itself in the earth,
I am very respectfully,
J. B. GIBSON.
Ex-Sergeant Co, "C” Frontier Bat-
talion.

Champ Clark, Pvesidential Factor

i plratton# of Governor Woodrow Wilson, The i apt ore of

ant, as well as an indication of the extreme healthiness

Clark Is going to be a factor in the situation that will
have to be reckoned with. It Is certain that he !s going
to bo hacked to the limit hy the Hearst Influence, what-
ever that may be, and with all of the chain of Hearst
newspaper* throughoiA the country behind him, it is
reasonably certain that the Missouri leader is going to
lve akle to make a most respectable showing even in
the North and East.
What the strength of the Harmon sentiment is seems
yet an undefined quantity that will not be revealed until
the big Eastern and Northern states begin to take ac-
tion. But there is something of an apparent sentiment
that v’hamp Clark is a man on whom all Interests can
safely unite as the leader who can be depended upon to
carry the Democratic standard safely to victory.

of "V,lva Madero.”
KctiiriiM Orozco's Picture.
Joe Lef ivre. tho well known mer-
chant of Pirtlevllle, then lirndo a
brief but forcible |alk to his fellow
citizens and fellow countrymen. Lc-
fevri' stated that Inasmuch as much
of (lie trouble in the republic is fo-
mented on thl* side, it behooves the
Mexican t living in the United Slates,
who really want to see peaee in the
republic, io hand together and dis-
courage rebel activity as much as
possible. He Cited several Instance#
where Mexican# have been induced
to Join rebel movement# through mis-
representation and false promise#,
where they could have eaally been
prevented front doing so had they
been told true conditions.
Lefevre then read a letter he re-
cently sent Orozco. I.efevre an.1
Orozco had been Intimate friends
since the Madero regime. Before Ma-
dero was inaugurated Orozco sent Lc-
fevre one of hi# photographs and ths
Pirtlevllle merchant has until lately
highly prized It. When, however, re-
cent development# In Chihuahua left
him ho room to doubt th^tt Orozco had
turned traitor to hi# former friend
and present ruler, Lefevre return'd
the photograph, together with prob-
ably one of 4tie most scathing ar-
ralgrtment# the traitor general has
ever received. “I have east you out
of my heart,” suld the letter, “as I
now cast your photograph out or my
house. No true Mexican has any use
for one so basely treacherous, and
you will fail as do ail traitors."
Pasquorru Talks.
It. V. Pasquerra. a prominent land
owner of Sonora and a steadfastly,
loyal Madero man. then talked to the
audience. Like Serlano, he express-
ed the opinion that much of tho hos-
tility to Madero is due to the fact
that many people do not know the
man and appreciate his greatness-
do not realize the task before him.
“Madero," said Pasquerra. "found
Mexico asleep; found the faculties of
Hit intelligent, progressive people dor-
mant under the military restraint of
years of despotic government. Wh-n
awakened hy the gentle, kindly touch
of Madero, the people dazed, natur-
ally, went to the other, to the so-
cialistic extreme, and unfortunately
tried to substitute anarchy for free
government. And as is often the
ease, the benefactor suffered. Ma-
dero, who had brought freedom of
speech, freedom of thought, freedom
of the press, was maligned through
the channels of expression' from
which he had withdrawn all censor-
ship. And why? A versatile tongue,
hut a treacherous, selfish, designing
one whispered maligning, inciting un-
truths in the ear# of the public, and
many responded. Some because they
knew no better others because they
saw fortune In misfortune, and oth
ers beeaurc they were not paid so
much a day for their alleged patriot-
ism. Many of these. I am happy to
ary. are Itoginnlng to see the light
and are now inspired hy real pa’ri-
otle motives. The Mexican people
are as patriotic as any other people
and their patriotism is not measured
in pesos."
where two of the eases first showed
symptoms, it is not* believed that tho
contagion has spread to other pupils
as sufficient time has now passed
lor the symptom# to he showing if
other pupils had been attacked by
the germs.
The rumor spread yesterday In El
Paso that all publie schools and all
theaters would be closed. This was
denied last night by the board of#
health which declared that there was
no danger of an epidemic.
The board of health issued last
night tho following warning to the
public: "The consensus of opinion
umong the physicians of the city is
that there is no danger of an epi-
demic at cerebro-spinal meningitis in
El Palo. However, as the germ of
this disease primarily enters the nose
and throat and as it is very important
that ft preventative be used at this
time of year, we advise the people
to take ail due precautions with per-
sons when they show any symptoms
of cold in the nose or throat.
"Should such symptoms present
themselves nothing has been found
better as a preventative of this dis-
ease than a thorough cleansing of
the nose and throat several times
dally with a solution of peroxide of
hydrogen. Also, as this disease is car-
ried by secretions from the nose and
throat, we recommend that all school
children be provided with individual
drinking cups and that they be abso-
lutely forbidden to use a common
drinking cup under any consideration.
“The conditions hero are being
carefully watched by the board of
health with the aid of all physicians
of the city."
