HORACE GREELEY'S MAXIM
Has Been Reversed by the Silver Kings
of the sierras.

New YORK, Aug. 4.-The World today
has "A long article indicating that the me-
tropolis will soon be overrun by an army
of idle men. Statistics from 81 trades in
New York city are given to show that in
these trades alone over ~. 900 men are out
of work, and II Is declared that this repre-
sents only portion of the city's un-
employed. IL Is stated that thousands are
coming here from the west in search of
employment and that immigrants are
tarrylng in New York because of business
stagnation in western states.
IL Is also pointed out that the host of
idle:s is being daily increased by the shut
ting down of factories, and the claim Is
made that manufacturers who do not close
their mill doors are importing pauper
labor. Western cities, il is claimed, feed
and forward the tramps TO New York free
of cost, and it is limited that the statistics
may point out bread riots in the near
future. The statement Is made that Horace
Greeley's maxim, go west, young man."

the Sierras. r.

THE Galveston Tribune is firing
Fulton's own declaration of six
years ago into the old mayor
but it does not ruffle hair of his
head. That declaration was "and
under no circumstances to accept
a candicy for reelection at the eX-
piration of said term of office, or
undertake toIname my successor"
The mayor has been hanging on
ever since and is not yet ready to
let go. 1t is this that makes the
Tribune tired, and it does not seem
to understand that Fulton is hold
ing on as much to castigate the
Tribune as for any other purpose.
His hold on office so long, despite
the Tribune, simply demonstrates
how little influence that journal
has in it's own city.

THERE is every reason to fear
that the existing revolution in
Nicaragua will impede and embar-
rass the construction of the canal.
The report that is circulated to
the effect that the Americans are
interfering in the concerns of the
government is emphatically denied
by the officers of the company
and there is no reason to discredit
their statements. The real facts
point to an understanding with
the English who are anxious to SUI
persede the Americans in the pro-
motion and control of the Inter-
oceanic canal. 1t will be well for
Cleveland to go slow and not re-
peat his Hawaiian blunder.

ATTEND THE FAIR MEETING.

AS will be seen by the notice
given elsewhere, over the sigma
ture of w. H. Weiss, chairman of
the Saturday night meeting, the
future gathering at the Grand
opera house to receive his report
has been called for this evening at
s o'clock. 1t is desired by Mr..
Weiss and every one in this city
who is interested in holding a sue
cessful FAIR in this city this fall
that the citizens will respond to
this call and settle this matter
once for all. If San Antonio is to
have FAIR that is to be a credit
to herself and a benefit to South
west Texas it can only be secured
by the united effort of all the citi-
zens. The names of the gentle
men that Mr.. Weiss will present
to the meeting tonight are guar
antee that only the best interests
of the city and state will
be consulted by them in
carrying out the commands of the
citizens in mass meeting as
sembled. These names are only
suggested for your adoption or re-
lection, and it is expected that you
will be there to give expression to
your will in the premises by your
voice. If it is not desired to have
a FAIR then be certain to come out
and say so, for there is no use in
going into this matter unless the
people are agreed. The great
desideratum tonight is to secure
a free and full expression of opin-
ion from our substantial citi-
zens of every class. All are inter-
ested, and all should be sufficiently
ready to assume their share of the
responsibility attaching to a de-
cision on this question to come out
and say plainly one way or the
other what they prefer. There is
no doubt in any ones mind of the
benefit that this city
would derive from a successful
FAIR, and it is in your power as
citizens to make the effort pre-
eminently successful. There is not
one who reads the notice for this
meeting tonight that cannot at
tend if he only makes up his mind
so to do. The call is issued that
the responsibility for all future ac-
ton in this matter may rest with
the body of the citizens and not
with few individuals.

THE rain is over for the present
from all indications. Foster says
that his storm of the 25th will not
come so far south as this section of
Texas, so that we may look for a
few days or weeks of dry weather
for farm work. There has been no
excess of moisture in this section of
the state, and in some of the west
ern counties there was not moisture
enough to start the grass and wet
the roots. These counties are, how
ever, the exception. The rain was
more general than any fallen
for land in many of the south
west counties corn is already made.
In some others a good shower in
two or three weeks, when the late
corn is coming into ear, would
prove beneficial, but it is certain
that the country is in better shape
for a good cotton and corn crop
than it has been in for several
years at this season. All things
point to a prosperous southwest
