Fort Duncan for Rent.

This property was selected by the
United States government for its altitude
and healthy locality. 1t commands a
view Of Eagle Pass, Piedras Negras, the
Rio Grande and surrounding country.
There are about 10 houses which are
built in systematic order. They are all
substantial, of brick, rock and adobe.
The walls are of extraordinary thick
ness, which are so well adapted for heat
and cold. The ventilation Is perfect in
each building, and large cisterns are
connected with a few Of them. The
stables are large and convenient and en-
closed. The arrangement and capacity
Of some of the houses render them suit
able for boarding and sanitary purposes.
The soil is sandy: the walks and avenues
are graveled and well grassed. These
are situated in the limits, and just far
enough fro n the bustling, busy portion
of Eagle Pass, which is well known as
an enterprsing and progressive town.
Health seekers, and particularly those
afflicted with pulmonary diseases, would
do well to look for homes like these,
where the pure dry air is so invigorating
and the pleasant nights and quiet days
are so necessary to the invalid. The
houses can be rented separately at rea-
sonable, low and satisfactory prices, or
the whole property may be leased.

The Republican party is now 30 years
old, and like individuals, parties are In
the full strength at that age, and can be
trusted as being In possession Of vigor-
GUS ideas and principles. The grand
old Democratic party is living alone In
the traditions Of the past, and has passed
the mile stone which makes the decline
of its powers and its usefulness.

A WRITER In the Fort Worth Gazette,
over the signature OF Lara" gives the
details Of the State Democratic oonven-
ton and the way it was manipulated,
and also throws out point to the pub
lilo In the following: 81 am aware that
by some 1t is considered sacriligious
even to question the action of any body
calling itself Democratic. But am also
convinced that others adhere to the
Democratic party because they believe
In Its Democracy, and would be as
prompt to rebuke any departure from
the principles Of that faith as If it were
labeled Republicanism. Parties are but
created for the preservation of good
government, and when they cease to
represent anything save the will of a
grasping machine, good citizens will be
seriously disposed to cast anchor and
disembark. Relief is bound to come at
last, either through internal reform or
outside help. In the meantime If to ex-
pose the unrighteous practices which
enabled machine to override the will
OF the people, disenfranchse one section
and defraud the others, destroy the free
agency Of the delegates and assume the
supreme dictatorship of the party-if
that be treaohery to Democracy make
the most Of It,"

An OPINION from the City Attorney to
the effect that San Pedro Springs is to
be reserved for the free use of the pub
lie has the effect to paralyze the Volks-
fest celebrat on, and thereby work det-
riment to the business interests of the
city. and would also leave the impress
sion that the City Council respected the
rights Of the dear people above all
things. The Springs were reserved by
deed and grant. The streets and alleys
and riparian way Of the river were
likewise reserved, but the Council
whose devotion to the people could not
allow the Volksfest celebration at San
Pedro Springs, finds no obstacle to
granting n building permit to erect a
building across Losoyo street. even into
the river. The Volksfest celebration
would benefit proportionately the whole
city, the building permit would benefit
only one man, and the question is sub
mitted, which proposition promised the
greatest good?
