The Benefits 10 Be Derived from the Sewer Inn
provements are More Than the Cost.
The LfGiiT, from the outset, has been
the warm advocate of all genuine inn
provements which have been undertaken
In San Antonio, and its position remains
unchanged. Without such improve
ments and precautions as are made essen
tial, by the size of the city, to ensure
health, the growth and progress of the
city will be checked with the upsetting
effects of jerk. The working people
will get employment through the con-
struotion of the sewers as well as be rid
of medical and drug bills, which now
keep their noses to the grihdstone.
Real estate owners will be largely ben
Gifted by the enhancement of the value
OF their property, consequent upon the
removal of all causes for malarial dis
eases; business men will derive consid-
cradle benefit from the same assurance,
that malarial diseases will have no germs
within the city to receive their poison.
Hundreds Of wealthy citizens will make
San Antonio their permanent home.
In our opinion, the published exhibits
and estimates of the proposed sewerage
system should satisfy citizens that the
Mayor and Council are not acting rashly
and blindly in the matter, but prudently,
cautiously and advisedly. They are
carrying out the plans of Major Hum
phreys'-a skilful and experienced engi-
neer, and we are satisfied the money will
be honestly expended, and the work will
not be paid for unless it shall be pro-
perly executed by the contractor. Sew
erage is absolutely essential.

George Salisbury says, Il tender
hearted paragraphist never feels 50
like going out and committing murder
as when he sees one of his pet jokes
stolen by a wooden-headed patent in
side editor and credited to some re-
ligious sheet which wouldn't know a
joke from bale ofhay. Yes George,
but he gets even some times. just
think of how good he feels when lie
sees that the country editor who steals
one of his paragraphs and palms it off
as an original editorial, neglects to
carefully scutinize his patent inside
and after his whole edition is out finds
the same joke on the inside duly cred
tied. lis then he feels that there is
such a word us retribution.

glad to see that the interest you have
manifested in the people Of Wilkes is
receiving its reward in the shape of
numbers Of new subscribers. There is
no news of any marked Importance
transpiring here. Our people, politi-
