Ir WAS remarked in IL crowd Of men a
day or two ago regarding the candidacy
OF Mr.. 5, W. Allister as candidate from
the Fourth ward, that the agita,ing of
the water question forced one member
OF the City Council to resign, and 1t
would make others who attempted it.
Ii may be that that company own the
city administration, but If the present
sentiment Of the people is any criterion
they will soon be compelled to represent
their constituents instead of the corpor
ntion.

TIM machinery and the workers Of the
city administration seem TO have man
aged that meeting Of First ward citl-
zens yesterday, in which MIR. II. Il. Bar
nard was nominated for Alderman.
This puts two candidates in the field
in that ward-Mr. Mackay having
announced himself Ms an Independent
several weeks ago. Neither candidate
is directly pledged on the question Of
city improvements and the subject Of
the city owning It's system OF water
works. but that question will be Injected
into the canvass, and 1t will be seen just
how the public feeling Is In the subject.

TUE Goliad Guard, speaking OF the
deep water convention says: The
Corpus Christi Caller suggests that
convention of the people Of Southwest
Texas be called to meet in san Antonio
not later than the middle Of November
to memorable Congress for an increased
appropriation for the Improvement Of
Aransas Pass. This suggestion is time
~, for as the Caller correctly remarks,
the appropriation Is 50 small that when
it is expended the advantage in the
work Is lost before another inslallment
is made. Let Congress appropriate
enough at once to complete the work ~

sold dry goods box to a farmer. A
few days afterward the farmer returned
the box and said it contained a number
OF handsome cloaks, somewhat MIL
