Waco evening news. (Waco, Tex.) 1888-1889, 1888-12-15

The coming conference in congress
Of the Texas delegation on the SUBJ
ject Of deep-water legislation will per-
haps develop considerable conflict Of
opinion and interests. They quite
generally agree in the proposition that
the object is not to be attained by
means of river and harbor bills.
Those of the members who have any
definite plans seem afraid to urge
them lest they provoke opposition
from some of the others. For in
stance, those who favor Galveston as
the port that should first receive at
tention hesitate to advocate its claims
for fear that that would start into &C.
tive rivalry friends of other places.
The suggestion that the state might
surrender for time all its claims to
river and harbor appropriations, in Or
der to procure fund for deep waite,
port, provokes aggressive hostility
from som. members Of the delegation
They are not willing to yield benefits
accruing or to accrue to their respec-
tive constituencies for the good Of
the whole. The suggestion that a
site be selected by board Of engi.
neers, to be appointed or selected by
government authority, apparently
meets with tho approval Of the delega
ton generally, as the most expedi
tious plan Of settling that importan
question. All Of them profess viii
lingness to accept selection made b,
such tribunal, and some Of then
frankly admit that it is q questio
which the Texas members could M
be able to settle among themselves.

Benjamin Constant, the distinguish
ed French artist, now on visit to this
country, has been telling the New
York people what.he thinks about their
city, as viewed through an artists eye.
From picturesque and artistic point
Of. view he felt that the lower part Of
the city--that part which skirts the
waters Of the Bay could furnish any
painter with subject worthy Of his
art. Mr.. Constant could not find the
slightest excuse for praising or even
tolerating the architecture or coloring
of the buildings on Fifth avenue.
Their sad, red fronts, of dirty choco-
lates, bleaching into hideousness with
age, were not calculated to ravish the
eye Of any artist. He found only one
house on Fifth avenue that seemed to
protest against the Greco-Gothic-An-
glican architecture that is met with
everywhere and that dominates every
thing like tyrannical sovereign. This
house was marble. 1t seemed to have
strayed into Fifth avenue by accident,
and rested there like pearl in dis
NAL setting. 1t was piece of art that
Paris would be proud Of. M. Constant
was of the opinion that, maybe in a
hundred years, or possibly in fifty
years, all those chocolate and red pep
per houses would give way to splendid
marble palaces.

President the right to call a meeting; to
reconsider the vote?
Answer-No..s~ .,>

can't would not make a good member, has
~hethe right to instruct members how to
vote? s%s
Answer-No. In regard to voting on

admit minors2 .
Apswer-No.
How may extra meetings of an Alliance

Answer-See Sec. 5, Art. 3, of the Con-
stitution.
I am constantly receiving letters of en-
quiry as to Alliance law, or asking for
rulings in special cases, &C., without any
signature to the letter and often with only
the initials of the writers name. For OBJ
vious reasons such letters cannot be an

A GREAT

Among the many. improvements and
worthy enterprises in Dur beautiful city,
there are none to- which we can point
with more pride than 70 the well-known
and popular music house of Hume, Minor
&Co:, situated on Ninth street, opposite
the Capitol Square zs,zs i j sa..fG aa~<
The energy and, enterprise of, these
gentlemen has virtually brought the great
piano and organ factories of the. North
right. at our doors, where. we a purchase
the best make of instruments at prices
which cannot be duplicated in the. largest
cities North, and they deserve the thanks
and patronage of our citizens for bringing
to our city not only disadvantages, but
for, concentrating a. trade here from the
South which heretofore went North.
George, A. Minor, the head Of the Rich
mond house, has been familiar figure
upon the streets and in the homes of the
Virginia and North Carolina people since
boyhood.. The.confdence. of the people
which he enjoys is too wen known to be
given any mention. Pursuing the study
of music by, the Ight@o # tho campfire
during the war, he succeeded in placing
himself in the 'front.' rank among.th the muv
sicians Of the South, and is the pioneer
piano and organ salesman .of, Virginia and
North Carolina, and to him more than
any other man is due the growth of the
music trade of these Satisfactorily every
music house in this city, and many in
other parts of the State, being the fruits
of his. energy and enterprise. Through
out the entire states of Virginia and
North Carolina the name of George A.
Minor is a household word, while his
partners, R. G.. Hume & Brother, of
Portsmouth, and Hume & Parker, of
Norfolk, are the oldest dealers In Virginia,
having been known for years, as the old
and reliable piano and organ house of the
South.
Hume, Minor &. Co. have never per-
mitted their names to be associated with
any but frst-class pianos and organs, and
at the recent Virginia apd North Carolina
fairs carried off the first premiums on the
great Decker and Wheelock pianos and
the sweet-toned Wilcox g. White organs.
The justly merited reputation which this
firm enjoys makes 1t perfectly safe for
any N to order an instrument by mail
or telegraph, knowing that prompt and
careful attention will be given to its selec-
ton by competent experts, every men,

FROM UNION COUNTY.
WArERtoo, N. c., Oct. 8, 'Ss.

WATERLOO, N. u, Oct. 5, SS.
Mr.. ED1roR:-Having been ap-
pointed by the members of Alliance
No 1856 as their correspondent to
your valuable paper, I feel It my duty
to contribute something as an evidence
of my fidelity to that organized body
to which I belong, and in whose In
terests have pledged myself to work!
It is plain to every man of ordinary
observation that the Alliance has al
ready done l~ncalculable good, morally,
socially, and financially. Old preju-
dices that have existed from time inn
memorially among the classes that
now compose the Alliance are rapidly
disappearing. Our financial condition
in Union county is at least-twenty per
cent. better than it was one year ago.
The timerbuyers of one Alliance say
they have saved one Thousand dollars
this year. Some men say they are
opposed to the Alliance on account of
its secrecy and the money that is re-
quired to u it; but a united effort
on our part, and a little time, for de-
velopmeht will prove to all outsiders
that the secret is worth knowing, and
themoney a good Investment. Now
the money required to support the
Alliance is avery insignificant SUN,
compared with the amount saved.
The amount saved by the cooperation
in one year to the average farmer on
his purchases would more than pay all
the demands of the Alllsnce for an
ordinary life. time. The Alliance is
now in it's infancy and should be nur-
tured with care and Judgment, with
out which we cannot expect to wear
the crown of success. We have many
powerful enemies without, and pos
sibly some within. Those within are
equally dangerous, and should get
their share of attention. Therefore it
behooves every good and loyal mem
Der to stand firm as adamant and
work with a vim that knows no failure
until he ices every principle of the
Alliance matured and established be-
yond a shadow of doubt.
Just now, and throughout the po-
litical campaign, is critical period;
our body being composed of all the
different political parties. Now every
intelligent member knows the democrat
izing influence of these different ele-
ments, if once excited. GA word to
the wise is sufficient" Bear in mind
that politics and religion is not to be
questioned in our order. Every man
is to be his own dictator, serving his
W God, and voting for whom he
pleases. SETH.
