three to five city ring meetings every
night, so that they do not get home until
nearly daylight.
1t is reported that SIS was held out of
the pay of members of the paid fire de-
partment as a campaign assessment, when
they were paid off jaSt Saturday night
and as they only get $40 per month, they
consider IL very steep assessment on
them, and number of them, in cOnse-
Quence, will not vote the city ring ticket
One Of the girls at chile restaurant
was wearing Shardein badge when one
her Just as two of the police came in and
she went to wait an them. When she re-
turned she did not have either of the
badges on and explained as follows: MY
boss says that as there is a large number
of our customers among the city officials
we have to wear the Shardein badge or
none at all and so have taken off both.
There will be grand mass meeting of
the people opposed to the city ring rule at
the end of the week on one Of the plaZaS.
The colored people will have large

The Sharden people have to carry the
Mexican street labOrerS from one ward
to another to get up their meetings and all
of them are very Slenderly attended while
the few they take there are tired ont by
the number of meetings and the repeti-
tiOn Of the same stale speeches.

han and Capt. Shardein a speech for the
present campaign?
will they explain how the present city
administration got San Antonio into the
financial fix she is in?" is a question that
is heard on every street corner.
