THE MASS MEETING.
Movement Inaugurated-Comm
Appointed-Work Cut Out
Meeting to Perfect Or
ganization Called.

The meeting Of citizens called at
the Grand opera house last night-to
consider the best means Of effective
organization for furthering the inter-
ests of San Antonio, properly placing
her advantages before the country,
and developing all her resources
was called to order at s o'clock by
Manager Mullaly, who had generous
ly placed the opera house at the dis
posal of the citizens for the purposes
of the meeting.
After some remarks as to the object
of the call, Mr.. Mullaly suggested the
postpOnement of the meeting, owing
to the absence of so many at the lee
ture of Henry George in Rische's
| Opera house. DR.. Fisher moved post
ponement, but this motion having
been discussed at length and it APP
pearing that the general sentiment
was adverse thereto, the doctor with
drew his motion and temporary Or
ganization was effected, with Captain
Schramm as chairman, and Messrs.
G. s. Eastman and l.. A. He'll as Sec
retaries.
On motion of w. s. Messmer a COM
mittee Of seven was appointed on plan
of organization. This committee was
afterward increased to eleven, and as
thus constituted was announced by
the chair as follows: w. 8. Messmer,
E. B. Alllng, J. w. Magill, G. B. John
ston, Sam Maverick, Il. H. Zanderson,
Jay E. Adams, G. II. Martin, II. w.
Mullaly, G. w, Russ, Fl. B. Andrews.
To these, by request of committee,
the name of Capt. Schramm was
added.
Mr.. Messmer requested that the
name of Gen. Russ or Col. An irews
head the committee but his request
was set aside, the committee being
appointed for preparatory work only.
Il. w. Mullaly and G. n. Martin
pledged themselves to canvass the
city and drum up a full opera house
at the adjourned meeting before whom
the plan of organization Is to be
presented, and they were appointed
committee for that purpose. The
meeting then adjourned to meet in
the Grand opera house Tuesday
evening Nov. 25th, at which time the
report of the committee will be sub.
mitted.
The committee is called to meet at
Mr.. Maglll's Office, 407 Houston street,
this evening at p. m. and >all men,
bers of that committee are expected
to be present.
There were about one hundred pres
ent in the opera house last evening,
and there was manifested an earnest
desire to organize wisely, and so as to
thoroughly enlist the great body Of
our citizens in the work of advertising
and developing the resources of San
Antonio. The meeting was a thor
oughly business one. There was no
buncombe, but an ardent desire to get
to work at once and in the most effec-
tive way. In numbers and spirit the
last nights meeting was in marked
contrast to many that had been pre-
viously held, and gave encouraging
promise of definite results.

All Should Help q Little.

How to attract population and
capital to San Antonio is just now
the problem, which her citizens are
called on to solve. We have just
grounds for being proud of the past
growth of San Antonio, but the ques-
ton for consideration is, shall her
growth stop now. or go forward with
increased momentum? All our clti-
zens, we feel sure, sincerely desire
to see San Antonio quadruple both
its population and its wealth-au
are agreed as to that point; but,
when we come to discuss and settle
the best means of promoting this
desirable result, differences spring
up, and this want of unanimity Of
sentiment and concert of action par
aIyses our efforts. We should act
unitedly and heartily. Every man
should give according to his means
to an advertising fund. All should
aid in drawing population and capital.

LONDON, Sept f3-The news OF rev.
olution in Switzerland Is the most in
teresting topic of the hour. Details oi
the uprising are difficult to procure, the
Federal authorities having maintained
telegraph censorship which would dc
.eeCh. to the -eore despot c neigh bors OF
the little democracy.
From the pains taken to check com
munication between the disaaected
Canton and the outside world, and from
the absence OF any encouraging official
announcement by the Federal Council,
1t is feared that the revolt may be more
widespread in its effects than the brief
dispatches permitted TO pass the censor
ship would indicate.
Ticino, the Canton now in rebellion,
has, however a moro turbulent record
! than her sister Cantons, and the news
OF the present trouble is therefore less
alarming than If tho offending Canton

maintained a peaceable and loyal de-
