1t is our opinion that Rev. Bittner
will regret the active part he is now
taking in politics in this campaign. He
will find that the religious position he
holds as pastor of the Luthern Church
in this city will suffer from the results
of his present attitude. In insisting on
his members voting his sentiments on
the school question they will lose their
respect for him when they learn the re-
suit after election. He will wish that
he had not taken so active a hand in
politics.
The ladies Aid Society, of Centralia,
will give ''Blue Jay Supper" on Friday
evening October the 24th at Pomain-
ville's Hall. Supper will be served from
6 to o'clock. There Will also be tables
of fancy and useful articles for sale.
The childrens' society will also have a
table where home made confectionery
and popcorn will be sold, also articles of
their own manufacture. Let there be
large attendance.

they never can escape from poverty
save by the strict practice of industry;
sobriety and frugality, and every
honest friend of the poor with give
precisely this advice regardless of
their temporary displeasure.
Mr.. GeorR Q, in his lecture, BEN oan-
ed the fact, that so many women
were unable to find husbands, and
asserted pretty broadly, that his pat
ent for single tax would be followed
by tremendous boom in the
matrimonial market. Really, it is
sheer impossibility to try to answer
such chaff seriously. One feels in
clined to break out into peals of up
roarious laughter.
Men do not marry, simply for the
reason that there are so very few
women fitted to be the wives of poor
men. A poor man is fool to marry
vain, giddy and extravaganza girl,
who can not sew OH button or pre-
pare meal to save her life, and who
imagines she was born into the world
solely to prance up and down the
streets to be stared at by a parcel of
dudes. Sensible, practical, frugal
girls are extremely scarce and are
growing scarcer every day.
No sensible girl will throw herself
away by marrying a poor man and q
full-blown dude, who cannot support
himself on his salary and is never
likely to rise above the position of q
second.rate clerk.
1t is reposterous-nay, ludicrous,
TO talk about the substitution of the
single tax for the existing system of
taxation, stimulating marriage and
extinguishing the race of old bach
elors and old maids. A cause, which
has to be supported by such flimsy
and nonsensical attempts at argu-
ment, is hopelessly weak and already
totters to its fall, When girls realize,
that they must marry poor men, or be
old maids, possibly they may quality
themselves for being the wives Of
poor men, by becoming practical and
frugal, and the dudes may learn the
same lesson, and then, marriage will
again become popular, and divorces
will GO out of fashion, in a great meas
ure. A reform in social habits,
tastes and manners, by which poor
men and women shall be brought to
dress according to their means, can
alone increase the number of, mar
riages. PETER PYMLEY, JR.

Gen. Sellverskoff, has been arrested
here. He says his name is Dembro-

other newspapers believe the police
are on the wrong track.
The prisoner was subjected to a ju-
dicial examination, but the police Of

Building Boom.

the coming year will show a boom in
the building line ahead of any before.
We learn from this firm that they
have drawings for various classes of
buildings in preparation for eleven
different parties at present, and sew
eral others are expected to place their
orders between now and the new
year. This speaks well for one firm
who returned to San Antonio only
one month ago, and is the best of
proof that the reputation of this firm
as practical and fair dealing archi-
tee ts, is appreciated. They furnish
to all parties who desire to build,
practical and valuable information
free of charge, and guarante tee to give
satisfaction to all who place their
work in their hands. Give them a
call. Office 404 East Houston street.
