STOCKHOLDERS CONSENT.
THE FAIR TO BE SET ON SOUND
FINANCIAL FOOTING.
The First Mortgage Bonds-Who
Will Take Them-The Value
OF the Property.

The movement of the Fair directors,
shortly after the close of our last Fair in
the drafting of the prospectus suggesting
the issuing of bonds to the amount Of
Sos, 900, is well known. The matter was
dropped at this point, as nothing further
could be done until the stockholders of
the association would give their consent
to act.
Finally, yesterday afternoon at Ave
O'Clock a successful meeting Of the stock
holders of the association was held in the
city council rooms, there being consider
able more than a quorum present, indi-
eating the renewed interest that those
most vitality concerned, are taking In the
matter.
President Maverick called the
meeting to order. stating after the
reading OF the minutes. the object of the
meeting, which as he understood it, was
10 obtain the consent of the stockholders
TO the placing of first mortgage bonds on
the property of the association, to the
amount of 900.
. Judge Barnard was asked for his opin-
ion as TO the legal objections that stood
in the way OF the scheme.
There are no legal objections, as far
as can see, in the way of this undertake
ing. OF course. il is step that cannot be
carried into effect without the consent OF
the stockholders. and when that has been
obtained. the resolution and the bonds
should be given to some experienced law
yer to frame"
He suggested that the stockhOld-
ers draft this resolution to read
that owing TO the debt and suits now eX-
listing against the association, it had be-
come necessary to raise a specified sum OF
money and, therefore, they, the stock
holders. do authorize the directors OF the
association to place first mortgage bonds
on the property of the association TO the
S65, 900.
The suggestions made by Judge Bar
nard were put in the shape OF motion
and were voted upon by shares, the
motion being unanimously adopted.
1t was further decided that these bonds
should be issued in the shape Of
twenty-year bonds, bearing six per cent
interest redeemahle in five years.
Upon motion the meeting adjourned.

FROM THE GERMAN,
Digest or Discussion In Knopp's and
Lehmann's Dialogue.


Translated from Texas Staats-Zeitung.
KuoppS: Lehman, l have something
new for you, something that will interest
you considerably.
Lehmann Let us hear il Knopps.
Knopps: just imagine, Lehman, the
city council has passed an ordinance that
no more variety theatres shall be opened
within one hundred and fifty feet of the
plazaS.
Lehman: You don't say; Did any
body contemplate opening one?
Knopps: | don't know, but j almost
believe so, for they took such particular
pains in measuring off the feet.
Lehman: Why, how do you mean,
KnOpps?
Knopps You see, Lehman, the
just 1901 feet from the plaza, should
judge.
Lehman: Well what has that to do
with the matter?
Knapps: Lehman, see you are not
the diplomat that am. Don't you see, the
Washington and the Turf are diplomat
ic" concerns, and assuch they are essential
to the general veal of the city and hence
the city council has passed the ordinance
that these essential concerns might not be
molested, and that none other might mo-
lest them by locating too close to them in
as much as some one is opening another
variety theatre that may not prove of
benefit to the city.
Lehman: No, KnoppS, that is noble of
our city council; it almost touches me to
tears. Such noble acts scarcely conSid
er them capable of performing.
KnoppS: So you see, Lehman, the good
will always find recognition.
Lehman: Yes, see, Knopps, see.

CORPUS CHRISTI NOTES.

CHRPUs Christ, Dec. L., 1890.
To the LIGHT:
The annual or biennial small pox scare
is with us again. Indeed it suddenly
blew up in such force that the scary
have fled as fast rs train could carry
them. DR.. Spohu emphatically de-
clares that there is not genuine case
of small pox in town, certainly not
among the whites, the Mexicans
could hardly exist without something
of the kind. Therailroad travel has
been unusually heavy in the last
week. From 40 to 20 are counted to
come in every night, the want OF
hotels and boarding houses and good
ones at that, is felt more than ever.
Every available space it seems is
crowded to the utmost. Many of the
visitors come TO spend the winter, or
would like to do so, if they could get
fit accommodation Real estate deal
ers are harvesting. Thanksgiving's
mild festivities have Gained down,
and we are living on the prospective
turkey and mince pie of blissful Santa
Claus. Corpus Christi is the city Of
great expectations. Several fine
baby boys arrived in sew
erai families on Thanksgiving day.
The Corpus Christi Caller says they
are fine, and it ought to know. Mr..
Payne, of Missouri, is recent ad-
dition to the force of the Caller. For
the assistance of editorial comment
in a journal published in Texas, will
state that his hair is very dark and
not otherwise conspicuous. The first
money ever in circulation in Corpus
Christi bearing the name of the town,
is issued by the Corpus Christi Ma
tional Bank. Mr.. g. H. Eastwood,
of Fort Worth, has gone into real es-
tate partnership with Mr.. Hardy Sol
ONION. On account of illness DIR.
Clarke did not hold service in the
Episcopal church on Sunday. Capt.
Butts, engineer of the Mustang chan
mel, informs your correspondent that
he is really and truly 5000 feet
through the channel, and has 1000
more to go before he actually meets
the Gulf stream. They are working
hard day and night. The circns has
folded up its tent and the band that
has infested the city day and night,
has silently stolen away, to the DESC
lation of the small boy. L.

He Ascertains More than the Army
Can Find Out.
OMAHA, Neb. Dec. 6.-Gen. Brooks
asked Father julie, a Catholic priest.
to go to the camp of the hostile In :
dians at Pine Ridge and induce them
to give up the war. He had peril
Gus journey, was stopped many
times, reached camp and a council
was held. Their replies were as
follows:
They object to recent election re-
turns. The enumerators, they say,
put them down many less for each
tepee than each tepee contained. 1--WE
are to receive food according to
the enumeration and we shall starve.
We shall have one big eat before
starving time comes, then we shall
fight, and then the white man shall
see more blood. The Great Father is
trying to cheat US, we know that by
the way the census man is putting
figures that lie and by which we are
to be fed.
Father julie says he urged the In
dams to be peaceable. After q SOL
emn promise from the priest that no
harm would befall them, the Indians
agreed to go to his house near the
agency and meet Gen. Brooks and
talk the situation over.

Philosophy and Law.

Below is a very novel paragraph from n
San Antonio attorney to his client, urging
the payment of his fee, now long since
due:
Il have sent to you for my fee because
| need it. but you may be assured one
thing; if | did not need the money
would not work for it. Poverty is the
coal Of fire on this turtles back that
makes him move. The majority of the
world is poor. guess you are poor: The
most valuable of all Gods people are
poor; he keeps them poor, because he
needs their labor. Whenever God has no
use for a man, he lets him get rich, and
then he becomes loafer."

Gladstone is Firm.

LONDON, Dec. 6.-Gladstone's letter
to the Irish Nationalist in regard to
Irish consta bulary and settlement
of the agrarian difficulty is less
conciliatory than they expected. He
offers to conduct negotiations
with new Irish leader, but not Par
nell. A stormy debate followed and
finally Parnell was given until 6
o'clock to withdraw or be de-
posed from office by the opposition.

Weakened at the Last Moment

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, Dec. GA
justice of the peace was sent to a point
near the Alabama State line to marry
James Walter and Miss Sarah Alfred.
The affair was in the nature of an
elopement. The spot selected was
near large spring. When the mo-

go any further in the ceremony. She
picked up her bucket, filled it at the
spring, and returned to the house Of
her father, a wealthy and prominent
farmer in the neighbOrhOod.

The more the artists charm, the more

When Schiller spoke these words he
told the truth, but in the theatrical pro-
fesSion the artist alone does not charm.
He has the assistance of the gas man,
the carpenter, the electrician, the supers,.
and even the calcium burner to make him
charm. So with the opera singer, she
could not charm without the assistance
of the orchestra, or the trombone.

Fair Play.
EDITOR OF THE SENTINEL :

EDITOR OF THE SENTINEL:
 It is really too bad that flair play" should not characterize the criticisms, made in the review of every candidate for political favors.
 I note in the Times of the 22nd, that one single candidate, that for Probate Judge, is selected from the Democratic ranks, and abused with hatred and gall, that only can, or conld have originated in the fertile brain of some kindergarten statesman. The spite and spleen shown, in the nature of the unjust criticisms upon the one man, are such as never could have originated in the brains of any new man, who comes here, unknown to the citi- zens of Yuma, to edit a just and truthful newspaper. The candi- date so cruelty commented on, is noI more of detriment to the success of the Democratic party at this election, than the nominee of the Republican party for the same office, who is ineligible to the office, for the reason,- that at the present time, he is Federal office holder, and if elected, cannot hold the office, according to Section 9 off the Organic Act of Arizona, which reads, near its close, "And no per son holding a commission or ap- pointment under the United States, except postmaSters, shall bea mem Der of the Legislative Assembly, or shall hold any office under the government of said territory" Is it not always well to be fair and just, and to treat our opponents honestly, and with some show of justice?
 Yours for some of the "Pie,"
