Halloween Celebrations


There were several gatherings In
this city Monday night to celebrate
HallOw.E'en. The two largest cele-
bratiOns were at the homes of the
Misses Rosy, 81 Goliad street, given
by the Gandsa Lyceum, and Miss
Mamie Howard, 300 Howard street.
AT both places much enthusiasm was
evinced from their different games.
At Miss Towards q merry company
of probably ten couples gathered.
They sang songs of "Auld Lang syne"
and plucked blood red heart with
arrows. They cracked nuts, roasted
chestnuts, and sailed tiny ships,
whose masts were lighted candles.
They closed the evenings gayieties
with a supper, the principal feature
of the pleasures.
Az the Misses Rossy's the crowd
was somewhat larger and they amused
themselves in candle lighted rooms
with all the foolish and laughable
games Imaginable. Graceful ladies
aud dignified men were engaged IN
them, heart, soul and body. In the
early part of the night lightning be-
gan to flash in the northeaste
heavens, and as that was sign that
| the witches were near, fortunes were
told with cards, and In various ways
1t was q jolly company and they en-
joyed themselves Immensely. A fine
| supper, with suitable beverages was
| served al 1870 o'clock.

SHORT STOPS.
What the People are Saying


1t is about time for the San Antonio
bar to get together and do something
to clean the premises or else the buzz
yards will make roost of the Goddess
OF Justice.
The corruption of the ring at the
last election is no longer matter OF
surmise, it is matter of sworn testi-
mony.
Bergstrom forced the Arkansas Pass
receivers, to put up $1,000, as Cal-
Iaghan was about to leave tor Calves
ton. Bryan was off on one OF his
junketing trips.
Take this morsel from Yoakum's
testimony, IN reply to the question.
How much money did you agree to
pay on the electiOn?" Il am not exact
ly clear as TO how the amount was
arrived at. 1t was between SIC, 900
and ST. 900 outside of you (Bergstrom's
salary $4,000. can give it in detail
pretty closely what 1 paid. 1 think
it was $1,000"
To the question, Swas 1t paid out
for barbecues and newspapers etc.?"
Yoakum answered, 81 cont know
how you spent it. You Berg
strom) represented that you were to
paw it out to other parties.
We thought it was a pretty large sum
of money and you said iG was
enough to ease it off on the other cam
didstes for their assessments two
wears hence, as the district judge
was only elected every four years"
The people will mark this statement.
with the big Doodle they had in sight
then.
The truth is, this large Doodle fund
went like wster,-they debauched
the ballot box with purchased voters,
they imported alien Mexicans to
vote down honest citizens, and they
had enough to carry on midnight ca
rousals in the dens of vice; oh, it
was a gay old time when they danced
over the PROSTATE form of our honest
people, and laughed and jeered at
our defeat.
Another statement of Mr.. Yoa-
kum's will explain to the "boys" how
it was that only Bryan, Bergstrom
and the fellows on the inside
were the dig men with their pockets
full of rocks: MIR. Berg from, you
stated that some of the candidates
were not participating in this fund
and you said 1t would not do to discuss
the matter in executive committee
meetings"
Now, the people have view of the
corrupt, Doodle conspiracy pra cticed
on them by the ring two years ago.
What are these same fellows doing
this time; the Arkansas Pass cow can't
be MIXED now, but they are
milking the peoples county and
city treasures to carry out just such
another fraudulent election. The OUT
side lanes and roads are swarming
with Mexican employees to play fixing
roads until the election. The city
sanitary and other employees are kept
busy fixing voters. The whole thing
is as rotten as two years ago. The
people must rise as one man and dow 4

The Commissioners Court Again
My Dear Justus:

The Commissioners Court Again
My Dear Justus:
Now that we have fought that duel
again take up the commissioners
court and its appropriations of public
money.
Let me suggest few interesting
subjects TO you. The purchase of the
Dryer property-the Court House
contracts-the money paid by the
court to County Assessor HUH omit
ting DR.. Lindner's gold watch for
procuring the appropriation the en-
plOyment of license detective to
assist the county collector in the per-
Torrance OF his duties, the appropri-
alton OF twenty-five dollars per
month to the county attorney for
services upon the nature OF which
the record is silent and other matters.
do not propose to rake up old mat.
tiers but will agree to statute of linn
itation OF two years, and to be limited
to the rascality perpetrated since the
last election. The subject indicated
will enable you to fill a column a
day until the election. You will find
the water quite deep In some places
so deep that you will need a boat.
The evidence is spread upon the min
utes of the court and upon the war
rant book. In these Instances you
will find that it 1s the SAT
est course to leave the sub
ject; either to divert pub.
lie attention by saying that il
was done upon the recommended
ton of so and so, though he may have
passed away years ago; or perhaps to
branch off otherwise. The latter is
the best course to pursue. The people
then may stop discussing these ugly
things and asking embarrassing
questions. Do let the people have the
views of the Court House and CITY
Hall Mutual Aid society.
l avoid the use of the word ring 81
that term is offensive. Court House
and City Hall Mutual Aid society car
not give Ottense and was suggested t.
me by the fact that Thad w. Smith
paid out g, 400 out of his own poke
in addition to 81 200 received from tn,
county for the incomplete patent in
dexes. That g, 400 and s. 200 fact ha
convinced me that there is no rim Q
but only a charitable corporation,
sort OF mutual office holding INSURANCE
company, combining charity with
little business at times. Let me hes
from you soon. Yours,
GEO. c. ALTGELT.
