the time more than one-half. The
contract calls for double track,
steel rail seventy-two pounds, three
thousand standard ties to the mile,
bridges of steel, under all high
ways and over all railroads, work
to be completed in year, at an
average cost per mile Of $4,000.
The speed to be attained will aver
age one hundred miles per hour.
There will be no trains, but single
cars running every twenty minutes
or Oftener if the service requires.
When these cars are in motion at
their maximum speed time and
distance will be annihilated and-a
movement sustained as rapid as

THERE are lot of smarties in
this city who occasionally visit
the Southwestern Lunatic Asylum,
only to demonstrate that their
proper place is within the walls in
stead of upon the outside. They
abuse the hospitality of the sup
erintendent, violate the regulations
and thereby expose themselves to
arrest and punishment, and unless
they come to short stop in their
fool practices they will be in the
tolls. They are already spotted.
The next time they enter fictitious
names on the register they will
have to interview the justice of
the peace. A word to the wise is
sufficient, but it is too much to eX-
pect that it will suffice for those
idiots who know less that an or
binary inmate of the institution
in which they attempt to show
their smartneSS.

THE Democratic prophets see
that the POpulist party is growing.
Then it is combining it's boom to
the bosom of the Democracy, for
nothing is capable of palmer dem
onstration than that it is going to
the wall in the great Republican
states. a glance at Iowa, Kansas,
Nebraska and Minnesota tells the
story in language too plain to be
misunderstood.

THE intimatiOn that the bounty
on sugar will not be paid by the
Cleveland administration, but that
the warrants will be refused at the
treasury pending the decision of
the supreme court as to the consti-
nationality of the bounty law, will
not be very agreeable news to the
Democratic sugar growers of the
Gulf States. All great industries
are alone safe under the wing of
the Republicans.

THIS is the first of May. The
great Exposition opens. The child
rem of the land rejoice in the day
and dance around their May-pOles.
The weather clerk has sprinkled
the streets and the lawns and the
parks and there will be no dust or
dryness to distress in all this
glorious southwest. May it be a
day of gladness and freshness and
rejoicing and pleasure and peace
in all these homes. While we and
our households thus rejoice let
remembrance be had of those
who have 50 recently been de-
spoiled of home and property and
let our gifts be for us a thankoffer-
ing for our escape.

IT will not surprise the civilized
world to learn that the attempted
assassination of Gladstone was by
a lunatic. All the same there are
men in Ireland who would not hest
tate an instant to be his murderer
if they thought that Home Rule
for Ireland could thereby be pre-
vented. They would no doubt kill
him with a clear conscience, so in
sane have they become through
the bitterness Of prejudice.

SAN ANTONIO is not kicking over
her taxes, but she is kicking be-
cause the weeks pass by andno adj

city, the river bed filling up with

into it, the garbage carts in too
many instances leaving their I'M
SavOry cargOeS ungathered over
Sunday, no movement for garbage
furnaces that promises a speedy
employment of these necessary
agencies for the general health,
The city kicks over this condition
of affairs and will continue to kick
until a change is made such as
was promised when the present
city council and administration
was elected. Less political pulling
and more square consideration OF
the needs of the city and the best
means of meeting them is what is
demanded.
