As the federal building is rapidly ap-

citizens of San Antonio to this matter,
through the columns of your widely

much in its public affairs, though
quietly scanning all that occurs,
but am unwilling to see our

walls without some public recogni-
ton of the progress OF the work. Ad-
vertising San Antonio 10 all the rage,
and what would more naturally con-
duce to this end and aid in spreading q
knowledge of the city in other states,
than formal laying of the corner stone
of the national building. with imposing
ceremonies. The act would be heralded
abroad, as we'll as all the preparations
for that event, and the whole would
reflect credit upon our city at
home and advertise her abroad
There ia far too little civic display
in this city any way, and yet there Is no
city in the state so we'll constituted to
make it. Martial and other bands
are here, military and civil societies in
great numbers, fine plazas, so far as size
Ia concerned, for display and q gorgeous
military post upon which to draw for
dress parade materials. What is more
natural or proper than that
Uncle Sans boys should turn
out to do full honor to the
laying OF the corner stone of Uncle
Sans building. Let the mayor Of this
city, or some Of the societies, or some
one else. or the citizens committee, or
the board OF trade. or somebody, do
something and arrange for the laying of
that corner stone. DORNICK.
