1t is only by careful examina-
ton Of the terminals of this San
Antonio and Gulf Shore road that
one realizes how directly east it
runs. Nelasco is not quite half a
degree south of San Antonio. This
road is the beginning of line
that will penetrate the panhandle,
cross the very best mineral range
of the state, open vast quarries of
marble, granite, gypsum, kaolin
and coarser clays, bring the vast
grainfields of northwest Texas
directly to water carriage and push
it's way into the Denver foothills
to gather from them and the re-
gion between them and the coast
whatever treasures of soil and
mine they can produce. San An
tonic is the natural metropolis of
the first thousand miles of this
road and it will bring to her mer-
chants incalcuable trade. Push it
to completion.

starvation wages, with a million
idlers in the background to step
into the shoes of labor whenever
the bosses knock down wages. Re.
publicans are for high wages and
a tariff that will protect the laborer

lions of pauper labor, with no army

has not tasted grass or walked abroad
