The prospects are yet good for a
straight Republican convention.

wants to see San Antonio go ahead,
and that is why we are for sewers.
The LIGHT does not ask you to
vote for Paschal, nor to vote against
Callaghan, but hopes you will vote
for sewers, and the prosperity of
the town. -,,sSs,s7 - r,,, - ,. .,.,S-:
It's not a question as to whether
you like Bryan Callaghan, or hate
Paschal, or vice versa, but the town
needs sewers, and our laboring men
want work.
Col. BROKER has gained quite
reputation as an all-round athlete,
in his contest with a general and
an editor, but he will lose much of
his glory in opposing sewers.
The attendance of a large num-
Der of taxpayers, who are in favor
of sewers, added much to the dig
nifty and appearance of the meet
ing at Convention hall Saturday
night.
One of the lady readers of the
LIGHT has posted 800, at the
LIGHT office, as a contribution for
campaign expenses to elect Judge
Noonan for Congress. Vote for
sewers.
The candidate who is wasting
his ammunition fighting sewers is
liable to find his supply short
when the real campaign opens in
October and November. So vote
for sewers.
Col. Frank Grice couldn't stand
the stink running underneath the
Express office through those filthy
sewer pipes, and left today for
trip north, where every little town
has sewers.
John Campbell is still running
for sheriff, and is wise in making
no speeches against sewers. If the
people vote for sewers, John can
no doubt afford to pay his little
prorata of taxas. Vote for sewers.
AS the Express is willing to
swear they only received SSS5.37 Of
of the $4,000, and Mr.. Sigmund
sued the city for an unpaid bal
lance on his printing bill, the ques
tion arises, who got the remainder
of the money, $l2,3l4.63. Next!
Vote for sewers.
The writer of snappers is sorry
to learn of the illness of Mr.. Frank
Bushick, the managing editor and
moderator of the Express. Those
filthy sewer pipes running into the
river underneath the Express
building is enough to make a
"Mergenthaler" sick. Vote for
sewers.
Mr.. Henry Vernon took advan-
tage of the sewer meeting at Con-
vention hall Saturday night, to try
and instil little straight DEM
ocracy" into the assembly. The
larger portion Of the crowd was
more interested in working a
friend" for beer. Purify politics
and vote for sewers.
The LIGHT does not believe that
Bryan Callaghan stole one cent of
the money. The financial state
ment for 1892 shows $4,000 paid
for printing and advertising. The
Express says it received for it's ad-
vertising in one whole year, 1892,
SSS5.37; now who got the balance
of that money, some $l2,3l4.63.
Judge Callaghan, Col. Frank
Grice and the balance OF the few
silk stocking crowd who are OPP
posed to sewers, have been very
careful not to attend any of the
Ward meetings. They have turned
the job over to Col. Prohibition
