1t is actually astonishing to- what an
extent all Texas Is waking up and inter-
estiDg itself IN the Alamo city. The
movements OF the past two or three
weeks have done more to bring this city
into notice and really advertise her than
any thing that has occurred for years.
Ii will also be borne In mind that this
advertising has been done through the
columns OF the daily local press. The
hold that San Antonio Is destined TO
secure In the panhandle and for which
she is now moving has awakened no
small solicitation among the cities OF CEN
trail and southern Texas. The right OF
San Antonio to center the Interests OF
southwestern Texas is conceded at
length, but her claim 10 put foot In
west Texas is denied. The Waco Ex-
aminer, speaking Of recent movements
In this city, says:
at Is now conceded that the Alamo
Is southwest Texas; but II the Alamonl-
ans will send out commissioner 10
hunt up their interest In west Texas,
they will discover an empire that recog-
nizes allegiance only to west Texas and
is quite capable OF taking care OF itself"
The Examiner speaks only half the
truth. The commissioners from this city
are already hunting up their interests In
west Texas and find large empire that
will pour its treasures into the gulf at
Arkansas Pass as sure as the sun shines,
and those treasures will all contribute
more or less to the prosperity OF this

SOUTHWESTERN Texas seems ready and
anxious to second the movement for
consolidation of interests proposed by
the San Antonio Board Of Trade. All
along the line there Ia hearty response
to the movement. Development OF
South western Texas and deep water at
Arkansas Pass are the watch words OF
this movement, and that cry will grow
louder more general and more authorita-
tive until 1t will reach the ears at Wash
iDgtor and compel a revision OF the
recommendation that all the national
appropriations be expended at Calves
ton. The natural advantages OF South
western Texas over Southeastern Texas
are fairly psralleled by the advantages
which Arkansas Pass presents over Gal
weston as the most feasible point at
which to secure deep water. This con-
vention should be called at once. The
Board OF Trade have the matter In hand
and will not be likely to permit the call
to be delayed. The response secured
from all quarters Is most encouraging
and gives promise Of the most enthusl-
astic meeting ever held in this city to
further the interests Of that section OF
the state In which her business prosper
ity centers.

The drug clerks of this city, long known

profession, have risen in defense Of their
rights and have already achieved an ehcour-

Clerks in drug stores have great RESPONSE
bility resting upon them in dealing out med
icines. and years of special training are
needed to qualify them for their position.
Nevertheless. they are meanly remunerated
and IRE practically deprived of all leisure
time. The hours of the most favored clerks
are from 7 or 8 O'Clock in the morning until 8
O'Clock at night, Sundays included, while in
many stores they nave to stay on duty until
midnight.
The clerks on the east side have formed an
association and have already succeeded in
