THE local political situation is now at
its highest point, and the minds Of most
voters are made up. The campaign has
been short but the combinations have
been many. 1t Is race between Demo
Gratis alone, ms regards the Mayor, and 1t
is expected that the best man will win.
Mr.. Callaghan is the nominee Of regu-
larly called Democratic convention. Nr.
Copeland is the nominee OF the working
men, but as a delegate to the Demo-
cratic convention, he endorsed its nomi-
nees, regardless Of the previous nomina-
tion he had received. Captain Merritt
is the candidate of the Committee of One
Hundred. He was one OF the original
Committee Of Eleven who fixed the
complexion Of the One Hundred. He
was of course one of the number, and
lobbied for his own nomination In the
session Of the committee. He is not the
candidate Of the'peoplo in no sense. He
has no sympathy with the people or
with the progress Of the city II 1t
costs anything. He was opposed to rail-
roads and immigration, and In fact to
every movement looking to the advance
ment Of this community and this people,
and his liberality lately protested re-
gardlng public improvements does not
correspond with his past life. This is
why Bryan Callaghan is the best man In
the field for Mayor. He is honest, ear
nest, vigorous, and his principles are
broad guaged and liberal at all times
and under all circumstances. He is the
choice Of the people, and represents the
wishes and desires of all in the policy
that will make San Antonio boom In the
near future. A vote for Callaghan is a
vote for the right man and in the right
place.

UNDER the laws OF Texas married
woman, even with the consent Of her
husband, cannot invest her separate
funds In u mercantile business and there
by become entitled to the profits and
accumulations accruing in such business
as part Of her separate estate. SO held
by the Supreme court Of the State In
the case Of Green vs.. Ferguson ct al.
The court held that the husband might
convey to the wife to reimburse her for
separate estate used by the community
or by himself, and that as between them,
II there were no creditors, he might be-
stow upon her all the community es-
tate, but that he could not contract that
the profits arising therefrom In the fu-
ture should not be liable to the satisfac-
ton of community debts which had ac-
crued or might accrue.

SAN ANTONIO wants immigration-new
people, new industries, new business and
to encourage all kinds Of manufactures
but 1t is not likely to accomplish that OBJ

constitutionally opposed to railroads

naturally follow. Thus a vote for

the right man and for progress and i'm

The Floresville Chronicle, speaking of
the regular Democratic city ticket OF
San Antonio, has the following regard
ing Messrs. Callaghan and Shields; "a
stronger man, possibly, might have
been nominated for Mayor, although
we do not think Of one now. Callaghnn
is young, progressive Democrat and
will no doubt make an excellent Mayor,
II elected. Peter Shields is the strongest
man on the ticket. He is popular with
all classes and is an educated, conserya-
tive, honorable gentleman. y y
There are three tickets now in the field
and If the Workingmen's ticket amounts
to anything 1t is very hard to say which
ticket will win. OF the three, however,
the straight Democratic ticket is decid.
eddy superior to the other two"
