ARKANSAS PASS DAY.
Picnic of the II. X. Boys at the
Riverside Park

The second annual picnic anu ball of the
employers Of the San Antonio IL Arkansas
railroad was. as everybody knows, given
yesterday at Riverside park, and every
body also knows that everybody had a
good time. Everything was favorably
disposed, the sky was prOpluOuS, and al
though the sunshine was little ardent
more attractive
Every one of the nGS-erOuS trains car
ried contingent OF passengers and the
grounds were from early in the morn
ing 10 late in the evening OVerrun by the
pleasure seekers, and ii is only necessary
to remark that everybody found that
which they sought. Everybody did am
pie justice TO the ample spread. In the
evening the great pavilion was crammed
with merry dancers, who danced to the
tune Of excellent music furnished by that
rising company of musicians, the Alamo
Fircmcn'S band. Each dance was dedi-
Gated TO some one of the officials OF the
road, many Of whom were in attendance
and one 10 the members of the e.. A. r.,
who were invited guests. The festivities
OF the evening were only closed with the
announcement that the last train was
ready to leave the grounds which. brought
to the city happy, if tired, company.
The grounds were nicely lighted by the
moon.
The dancing hall was poorly lighted.
The committee could not secure lOcOmO-
tive headlights and would not trust the
electric light.
There was enough hungry people at
supper time to have eaten the one little
Understand, attendants and all, and they
came near doing it.
II. d. Carnegie and Dan HaSSctt were
sworn in as special police.
Mr.. Ed. Rowe hurt his finger in a swing
yesterday. This is the only accident that
happened.
There were number of fights at the
wind-up.

until we change the charter. BY what
means do you suggest 10 repay it? BY di-
rect taxation? For. on the other hand
you say: all contracts are illegal: the
charter requires that the bonds must be
sold and the money in the city treasury
before any public work can be legally
contracted.
Now, let us suppose that we borrow the
money according to your suggestion. up
to the amount this city asks and do all the
work contemplated using the money on

expenses of the city as heretofore. and the
progressing Improvements too, and then.
when needed. as you say. put the prOpO-
SitiOn TO the people for that S2jO,OO, and
if the same is defeated, what remedy would
you suggest to meet the emergency?
And again, if the work would be done un-
der your suggestion and the same con-
tractCd, let ii be bridges or whatever it
may and the money taken from the diff
ferent specific funds in the shape of IA
loan. then, according to your own state
mCnt. all such transactions and contracts
would be illegal. and consequently the
very attempt to ask the privilege to bond
the city TO repay the money drawn from
their funds would make all preceding
transactions null and void. Citizens would
condemn this folly by voting against the
proposition. The different funds would
be drained and all means deprived to re-
pleniSh the same. All progress in the I'M
dergOing Improvements would necessarily
stop: the city would be in a debt ont
which she has no redress. except direct
taxation. Will taxpayers approve of
