TUESDAY, JULY 2, 1895

San Antonio must put herself in
to the traces very soon and pull for
all that is in sight if she is going
to keep ahead Of the procession.
Texas is wide awake as never be-
fore for investment and the incom-
ing of capital. Nearly every city
of considerable size in the state is
out for whatever can be secured in
the way Of population and capital
to build up with and every induce
ment Is offered to determine con-
clusion on the part Of the prospec.
tor. immigration agencies are
springlng up all over, syndicates
with large bodies OF land under
control are seeking colonies and in
the late enquiries that are being
made for Texas lands there Is a
disposition to catch on to what is
offered. San Antonio must be in
1T with the rest or she will be left.
Her natural advantages are not
going to carry her through in the
face Of this present movement and
she must hustle.

ton and entered into "a fool cru
SADIE against innocent amusements
instead Of preaching repentance
for sin, has been called down and
has stepped out. What fuss he
would have made had he been in

that marriage in Cana of Galilee?.
Those men would make Jesus tired
IL he were living.

The Belknaps are slated as favor
ties with the Branch Guards of st.
Louis for the first place at the in
terstate drill. This is the news
that comes over the wires to their
friends in this city. An award of
first prize is not looked for here
but 1t would raise the roof of the
Alamo IL it came out that way.
There are no sore heads in this CITY
when the Belknaps are in con-
sideration. They are San Antouio's
white-headed boys and can have
all that there is in the pantry. II
they do not take the pennant it
will not be for want of trying, but
for want of drill.

Carlisle is holding out the pay
ments that should have been made
last month In order to show a
larger revenue under the new tariff
law than the returns justify. 1t is
openly charged that there never
was such juggling with the figures
as there has been this past year.
There is not doubt OF a deficien-
cy Of more than $50,0G0OO0, and
with all the manipulation it shows
&5,000,000. When the returns for
this month are made they will
show strongly on the wrong side
of the ledger.

Dear Sir: 1t Ia with great pleas.
ure that / write you In regard to
your inquiry IL and how / was
benefited by the use of your iron
and hot sulphur waters during my
stay at your ranch last winter.
You saw yourself in what condi-
ton / was, when 1 first commenced
using your waters. / could hardly
walk. but after a stay of but two
weeks, / was able to walk around
without much exertion and with
out the aid of stick or crutch. Since
/ left your ranch my case has con-
tinued to improve, and am sure
that the use Of your waters effect
ed lasting benefit. My case was
a very severe attack of rheuma-
tism. Although / visited your
ranch in rather the wrong season,
the weather being very cold at the
time, nevertheless, ] must say that
the use of your waters cured me
completely and made a new man
out Of me. Thanking you for your
very kind treatment, am,
Yours very truly,

The city council has shown q
disposition to take garbage matters
in hand and this is well, but it
would be better to remove the
garbage. 1t is not right that con-
tracts for such vital work should

the mercy of the contractors while
the matter was being fought out in
the courts. The sanitary salvation
Of this city is In pawn. There

The issue of the garbage contract
and also that for the cleaning Of
the river emphasizes tho need OF a
little more business brains in the
letting of contracts. The members
OF the council ought to be governed
by common business sense in do
ing business for the city, and II
the figures upon which contracts
are based are such as to show upon
their face that the work cannot be
done for any such amount as is bid,
then the Council should refuse to
award contract. Have they no dis
erection In the matter? Contracts
should be let upon reasonable
terms to responsible bidders and a
sufficient bond exacted, with good
securities, to insure the faithful
and prompt carrying out OF such
contracts. The city has been
monkeyed with disgracefully. Its
health and cleanliness and the
wish of the people set at defiance
through unbusiness methods and
1t is not pleasant subject to con-
slider when you kneel down at
night to say your prayers and
thank God that you live in the on
ly real city In Texas? The cuss
words that rise spontaneously
where the prayer words should
come in, interfere NIGHTLY with
the solemnity due to such an occa-
sion. Let us have the garbage re-
moved, and the river cleaned and
the streets scavengered, and the
sewer business attended to.

BOUNTY ON SUGAR.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 12.-The treasury department has informed the collector of customs at New ! Iork that the department is authortatiyely advised that under the laws of Spain a bounty is directly paid on export of sugar from that country when the exported sugar is the production of the re- finlng of sugar proceeding from its colonial provinces and possessions; that the bounty is equivalent to the tax which may have been paid for the raw material plus 20 per cent, and that in cases where no bounty is received by the ex porter official certificates to thnt effect may be obtained. In view Of such information the department is of the opinion that sugars, the product of Spain and her colonies. are subject on importa- ton into the United States to the additional duty of 1-10 of 1 cent per pound, under the provisions Of paragraph 1S2h of the act of August 28, 1894.

New England Cotton Mills to
 Move to the South.
SECRETARY COOLIDGE TELLS
Why Massachusetts, Dwight, Boot, MerrlmaC and Whittier
 Mills Are Coming This Way.

BOSTON, Mass, Jan. 12.-Regarding the T. Jefferson Coolidge, the secretary of the Amoskt a Manufacturing company. seys srhis southern movement is perfectly natural. Labor at the south is a great deal lower that in the north; the mills are near the cotton fields and there is a great saving in freight rates. Again, the southern roads take cotton as fifth class, while the northern roads take it as second and third class, making big difference. Then there is d great difference in fuel. Labor is the greatest saving of all, and it is claimed a saving of cents per pound can be made The product Of the southern mills are seut mostly to Chicago and St. Louis.
 ''I think the southern mills will in- crease. We are ham pered here by trade unions, strikes and Legislation, making 1t inore difficult for us to manufacture at q profit, aud until the legislature of this state, instead of doing all il can to injure manu- lecturers, turns around and assists them, there will be further loss of business.
 s'FIne goods can De made cheap per in the south as well as coarse goods. It Is clalnted that southern operatives are not as skilled northern operatives, and that 1t takes too long to educate them, but this is false. Southern operatives are just as good in every resp C., and It IS only question or time when fine goods will be made lu the south.''
 he New England mills that are now an ticipating going to the south are the Mass achusetts, Boot, Dwight, Merrimac and Whittier mills,
