A BUSINESS MAN ON SEWERS
A Letter From Judge sweezy.

n AeIbSE FROM OuuSe SWeezy.
The following letter shows how
live business man looks at the sew
er proposition, who is willing to
lay aside his own selfish interests
and consider only the public good.
He is the secretary and general
manager of the "a. M. Walters Real
Estate Investment company" and
is largely interested in "East End"
lots, which are outside of the "pres-
ent needs" system. He recognizes
the fact that what is good for tho
heart Of the city cannot help but
be beneficial to the entire city, and
advises every "East End" voter to
vote for bonds. His letter reads as
follows:
BLUE HILL, Neb., July 80, 1914.
W, M, Capehart, ESQ, San Antonio, Tex
Dear Sir:-I am anxious that
the sewer bond proposition shall
carry at the election to be held on
August 9TH. OF course it will not
reach out to East End, but we are.
willing to be taxed for the general
good of the city. | find many peo-
pie who would winter in San An
tonic if it had a good sewer sys-
tenn. The voting of these bonds
will be good thing for the city in
many ways. lst 1t will advertise
her as live city. 2nd: 1t will give
employment to lots of laborers.
3rd: 1t will put into circulation in
San Antonio large sum of money,
which will enter into all avenues
of trade, and we will get some of it.
18th: 1t will make the city much
healthier. 9Th: 1t will be the
means Of bringing to the city twice
as many visitors as heretofore and
this alone will add largely to max
ing better times. l deem it Of great
Importance to carry the bonds. All
tax payers are voters. | do not
know whether you can vote or not,
but this matters not so much. You
are interested in having better
times, so put in some time for the
bonds, both before and on election
day. See Quinn and make it a
business to see every voter on
east End" and get them to go to
the polls and vote for the bonds.
Yours truly, F. A. SWEEZY."

THE CONTEST ABOUT OVER

The war of words over the sewer
| question is about done. Tomorrow
the voters will decide if our city
must remain filthy or become
clean.
AS the controversy has proceed.
ed, every reasonable or unreason.
able objection has been fairly met
and controverted.
The opponents declared that the
city had no authority to issue
bonds-this was knocked in the
head by the attorney general.
1t was stated that no lands could
be had for sewer farm unless a
big price was paid-this was
refuted by reputable citizen
who offered all the land wanted at
a reasonable price.
1t was stated that the sewers
were to be emptied into the river
This was shown to be false.
Then there were a number of
other statements entirely lacking
in truth and unworthy of consider
alton by intelligent citizens.
The people were told that they
would have their taxes raised, that
the sewers could not be built for the
money, but chiefly, that the people
must wait until they could get rid
of Paschal and the present city
council. This last suggestion con-
tains all the milk in the cocoa nut
of the opposition.
Wait until you can put in an
other administration that will be
more favorable to the corporations.
And then what? Let every
voter stop and think. What
is to prevent every concession and
reduction which has been made,
on water and light being thrown
aside, and new contracts made that
will not only raise the rates to pri-
vate consumers and to the city, but
will omit anything like "free water
for sewers" These gentlemen are
business men; il they engage in
politics they do it from a business
standpoint, to benefit their plants.
The people have the contracts
now that secure certain advan-
tages; let them take advantage of
themk
WIT, say the political opponents
of the Paschal administration, be-
cause we hope by defeating sewers
to GUST Paschal. If the good citizens
Of this city are influenced by the
"wait" argument they will put their
heads into moose that will choke
the prosperity out of our city.

ANTI. SEWERAGE MEETING.
Large Number of Taxpayers at Con-
ventlon Hall Saturday Night.

hdL SC Va CA pay GU SOA-
ventlon Hall Saturday Night.
A surging sea of humanity con-
fronted MIR. Henry f. Vernon,
chairman of the meeting at Con-
vention hall last Saturday night,
as he made his speech against the
proposition to issue 100000 bonds
for sewerage purposes.
The number of taxpayers that
were for and that were against the
proposition could not be ascer-
tanned. The meeting was one of
anti-sewerites, but it was plainly ev-
ident there was large contingent
present that favored the sewers.
These, however, occupied the rear
part of the hall and behaved very
orderly, while the ants were seat
ed in the front rows and cheered
loudly as Mr.. Vernon spoke.
While Mr.. Vernon was speaking
he happened to speak the word
democrats" and hardly had he
uttered it, when some one let out
a loud cry: "Vive Shardein ~ Mr..
Vernon continued, as though moth
ing had Mapped, and the man yell
ed again. He was finally led out
Of the hall and peace reigned again.
A few moments later Mr.. Vernon
was again interrupted. This time
it was the electric light. One of
the arcs began to flicker, and in a
short while large blaze shot out of
the globe.
Almost simultaneously both
lights went out and the large hall
was in total darkness. This Gre
ated a furry among the audience,
and for a while, Mr.. Vernon, who
was standing at the table, in the
the dark, could not be heard.
Order was, however soon re-
stored, and the speaker
who had ceased talking, was urged
to continue. Some one cried: "Go
on, Vernon, you're all right; tie
lights were turned out by the city ;
that's only a trickw Light was
soon had and business was re.
sumed.
John Routledge then made a
talk against the proposition and he
was followed by w. H. BROKER
and Francisco Basantes, the latter
speaking in Spanish.

more fairness than his cOmmuni-
cation exhibits he would be in dam
ger Of being summarily read out of

Mayor Paschal found the city
treasury virtually empty on
his advent to power. Not only
was the treasury empty, but the
city taxes to fall due June l, 1898,
had been pledged to the San Anto.
MO National bank for funds to de-
fray the current expenses Of the
previous year. The preceding ad.
ministratiOn had bequeathed him
not only an empty treasury and
mortgaged taxes, but mum Der of
pressing floating debts. There were
arrearages due the Gas and Elec-
trio company and the WaterwOrks
company and numerous other
parties. al" should have stated
these facts, because they fully eX-
planned and justified many of the
acts for which he censured Mayor
Paschal. The want of funds COM
PEELED the administration to dis
miss the sanitary inspectors, to
diminish the street force and to
curtail expenses. Necessity is an
task master. Mayor
Paschal started out with an empty
treasury and the incoming taxes
to repay borrowed
money. How much money was in
the sinking fund In Feb. 1898.
Fairness certainly demanded
that 81" should have stated these
facts, because they exonera te
Mayor Paschal from blame.
Mayor Paschal has cut down the
annual cost of lights and water
about $4,000. He was instrument
tai in etfecting the reduction of the
water rates of private consumers
from dollar per month to Is
cents.

WAIT, SAY THEY.

The opponents of the sewers are
telling the people that we should
wait until after the next city cleo
ton before voting for a loan. Why?
Have they told the people why?
They intimate that there will be
a new administration. Well, will
a new administration be more
favorable than the present admin
istratiOn?
Is there any guarantee that a
new administration would know
more about this business than the
present administration?
Will the opponents dare tell the
people that new mayor, Of their
picking, will be more able, or more
honest than Geo. Paschal and the
present city council?
They ask the people to wait, but
have they or can they give the peo-
pie any pledge that within a year
this proposition will be renewed, or
that it will ever be renewed, if
their crowd get into power?
Wait, for what? until Frank
Grice, speaking for Col. Bracken.
ridge and Mr.. Kampmann, give
permission to the people to vote
for sewers
No, good people, you have the
opportunity now, grasp it while it
is in your reaCh-Otherwise it may
pass beyond your power to have
sewers for another generation.
Wait, and get another Callaghan
administration that will throw
away your last dollar in mud
streets, and where will be your sew
ers.
Why wait, when the money
must be borrowed, on long time?
Why wait, when we need the eX-
penditure of this money now worse
than we will at any future time?
Why wait, when this money will
help out every business man and
laboring man in the city?
Why wait, when even tomorrow
the wires may flash the tidings OF
the march of that dread destroyer
cholera, on our shores?
Why, wait when we need today

Col. Breckenridge Denies.

Everybody interested in the sue
cess of the sewer proposition will
be glad to hear that Col. Bracken-
ridge denies that he has combined
with Mr.. Kampmann to defeat
Gh9 sewers, and hasn't spent a cent
even indirectly to influence vote.
Hence we must infer that the Col
onei does not endorse the course Of
the Express and really is favorable
to sewers.

Reform School Needed.

The two little Northcraft boys,
whose parents live at the corner of
Water and Victoria streets, were
arrested Saturday night by Police
Officer Foster, on complaint that
they were throwing rocks at an old
Mexican woman's house. The Off
Ger locked them up in the Alamo
police station for several hours,
gave them a good fright and sent
them home. Their mother is an
invalid and the boys are uncontrol-
able.
A reformatory would suit their
case admirably, and also the cases
of many other boys in San Anto-
MO, now growing up and being
raised on the streets, among all
sorts of wickedness and tempta-
ton.
The Northcraft boys have been
arrested before, but the police court
has no power over them. If prop
erly cared for, they could yet be

At Mahanoy City, IN order to prevent the
blockaling of the culvsrts and creeks. all
the bridges were torn down and the obstruc-
Hons removed so as TO give free passage to
the food. This precaution was also taken
1t GIrardville. The Reading Railroad either
lost completely or had badly damaged at
least twenty bridges in this one county, be-
sides much havoc with embankments.
The abutment wall of the Lehigh Coal and
Navigation Company basin, opposite Easton
aud right below the big railroad bridge, gave
way, precipitating a torrent of water directly
against the piers of the new bridge connect
ing the Pennsylvania with the New Jersey
Central an1 I. shigh Valley roads. The strain
was tremendous, for the break was clean
and sudden. fully seventy-flve feet of
wall going down. releasing body OF water
twenty-five feet deep. The wall was an aver
age of ten feet In thickness, and it will cost
at least S12, 900 to repair the damage. The
canal banks are washed away In various
places, and 1t will be several months before
navigation can be resumed. The break will
seriously affect business on the Morris Canal,
as the LehiSh Canal was a feeder.
