Alamo City Public Library.

At last the library will settle
down under its own roof, and the
poor books, worn out with theil
ijourneying will be allowed to re,
pose quietly on their shelves ex,
cept when they are gladly yield
ing up their contents to earnest
readers.
All will be interested to know
that the library building has been
started at the library grounds on
st. Mary's st. The Rt. Rev
Bishop has generously donated
this piece of land for the use OF
the Alamo City Public Library
and Free Reading Room; and
now all that remains to be done
is to place on the land suitable
building. For this purpose quite
a large entertainment is being
prepared, which will take place on
the December 18th, 18th and 18th,
| on Alamo Plaza, in the building
I recently occupied by l.. p. Peck.
This entertainment is in charge
of the lady managers, and from
present indications promises to
realize all their hopes for it.
One very interesting feature Of
the library will be the Ala
mo table where souvenirs and
relics Of the Alamo and of the
Missions will be sold. Perhaps
the most vuluables articles on the
table will be some tiles from the
floor of the Sanctuary of the Sec
ond Mission. These real treasures,
which will be hand-painted have
been generously given by Ri.
Rev. Bishop Forrest, and any
lover of antiquities will delight
in the opportunity thus afforded
him for making such a valuable
addition to his collection.
Four of the other tables will
represent the four seasons, and
will be presided over by various
ladies, assisted by San Antonio's
most charming bellies.
There will also be grab table
and a fishpond, where the children
can fish to their hearts content
and be assured that every time !
they cast their line they will bring
some fish to shore. ....
A postoffices, well appointed will
provide ample opportunity for the
exchange Of those small notes
which sometimes mean so much
that a lifetime may hang on
one.
Every Thursday morning the va
rious committees will meet at the |
library rooms on st. Mary's street |
and all are earnestly requested
to interest themselves in promot-
ing the completion of their work.
The reading room attached to the
library is free and open to all, and
past experience has proven it t
be an untold source OF good. I

A RINGING ADDRESS!
by b. q. Adams, Chairman of the
Grenada County Democratic Elk.
ecutlve Committee.
There will be None but True and Tried
Democrats
Allowed to Vote in the Grenada County
Democratic Primary Election.
Therefore, let Every Honorable Democrat
Govern Himself Accordingly.

GRENADA, MISS, July 25, 1895.
TO THE DEMOCRATIC VOTERS OF GRE
NADIA COUNTY:
AS frequent inquiries have been made
to me as to who are entitled to vote at
the Democratic primary election to be
held in Grenada county on the 3rd day
OF August next, I deem it proper to say
that the Executive Committee, the
constituted authority of the party, laid
down the basis Of qualifications Of
voters when they ordered the election.
The judges, of the election in the
various precincts will please conform
to this rule. To permit any deviation
would not only be unjust to the voters
but would be unfair to the diffe~-
ent candidates, as the canvass has been
made on the line as marked out by the
Executive Committee. The success of
our party is paramount to the success
OF any individual, and as this is DEM
ocratic election, none but Democrats
who come up to the test, should par
ticipate. TRUST to that lofty spirit of
patriotism and high sense of justice
that has always characterized the great
body of our people to see thai the viii!
of a majority of our party is obtained.
Let the rule OF action as promulgated
by the Executive Committee be strictly
adhered to, and the Democratic nomi-
nees can look forward to Il triumphant
victory in the November election.
Your obedient servant,
B. G. ADAMS,
Chm'n Dem. Executive Committee,
Grenada County.
