pieces than ever before.

letter accepting the nomination for
Representative. AS it is such a
STRAIGHTFORWARD article and shows
so plainly that his interests are
closely allied with those of san Juan

and study it and then decide as to
whether or not you will cast your
vote for farmer, whose judgment
and integrity are unquestioned.

Friends if we have to send this man

SHORT STOPS.
What the People are Saying.


The l0l Chicago business men
did not visit San Antonio, greatly
to the disappointment of our citi-
zens. There are thousand more
just as good fish left in Chicago
who would be delighted to take a
trip to San Antonio, if our business
men would like to have them como
and would arrange all the details
OF the trip.
1t was strictly Waco and Gal
weston affair and San Antonio was
not in it. We cannot expect to get
the leaVings Of the enterprise of
our sister cities. If weiwant any
thing we must go for it on our own
account.
Now if San Antonio will send
up to Chicago we can secure a
train load OF 1000 fellows who
would be delighted to come here
and take in our hospitality and
we could send them to the Pass to
eat oysters, and look at our pros
pective deep water harbor.
When our big sewer system gets
under way and things begin to
hum, it would be a good idea to let
the Chicago boys know that we
are awake.
We can show them the busiest,
happiest and most pleasant city in
Texas, and when they return they
can guy the fellows who had to
keep their spirits up by artificial
antidotes while they listened to
the old chestnuts so common
about the Cotton Palace and
around the "Gem of the Gulf"
What we really do want is visit
from thousands Of people who seek
a pleasant, healthy winter resort,
or who hunt a land not overdone
with enterprise or exhausted In re-
sources.
West Texas is the most inviting
field for capital in the United
States today, and but a very few
years will pass by when our de-
lightful city will be the magnet
that will draw to us both capital,
intelligence and enterprise.

PLAIN POINTERS.

WRITTEN FOR THE LIGHT, BY OBSERVER.
The Democratic press through
out the country are kept quite busy
telling the boys chow and why il
happened"
1t is not difficult to forecast the
result OF any local question OF pub.
lie interest. All you have to do is
to see what side our "great" morn
ing paper is on and you may bet
your money on the contrary.
1t may .be safe to say that it's
bitter opposition to the Hon. Geo.
III. Noonan in the late campaign
has gained many votes for the VEN
cradle judge, "just in spite Of that
inconsistent paper" as many good
citizens expressed themselves.
y
"The great religious daily" dis
played its consistency on several
occasions. 1t only announced to
readers Judge Noonan's election
two days after his election was as
sured beyond a shadow Of doubt.
The result must have been mortify-
ing to the false prophet who dons
a religious mantle to cover a null
titude Of erroneous doctrines.
Its mongrel politics will prob
ably undergo a noted change
since the late phenomenal Re-
publican victory, and to look
wise before its readers, will
occasionally crow in its columns,
81 told you So" Such is modern
journalism and politics Of this en-
lightened age.
The result of the waterworks
question, the sewer question, the
late congressional campaign, ETC.,
ETC., will serve as a guide, that
whatever "the great religious" OPP.
poses will undoubtedly be carried
and you may bet your tamales on
that.
