IT is much to be regretted that the members
Of the Council are inclined to clog the wheels
OF progress by refusing to grant the right-of
way to the street railway along North Flores.
Progressive ideas and ways are bound to pre-
vail, and the car ofProgress is likely to run
over and mash some Of the Aldermen clear out
Of sight. The people require cheap trans
portation from one part Of the city to another
and will not be kept out Of it to humor a few
persons. There is little doubt but that
street railway along North Flores street would
enhance the value of property along it more
than any other thing could do, and there is
demand and occasion for a track and line on
that street which cannot be snuifed out The
LIGHT is earnestly in favor Of progress in all
directions and of making the most out of the
present boom, and it warns the old fogies and
unprogressives that they have had their day
and must now go with the current of pro-
gress or prepare to be pigeon-holed. The
onward progress Of San Antonio cannot be
arrested by handful of obstructionsists-
population is two enterprising, energetic,
resolute and various to lose sight of measure
out of personal regard for Tom, Dick or
Harry, who insist upon backing water. The
balance Of power is in the hands o. the young
men, the working men and those who have
settled here in the last three years, and they
mean to use it to build up San Antonio.
