WALKS AND TALKS WITH OUR

What would become Of merchant
without the use OF printers ink. Have
you noticed that three-fourths of the
merchants who fail in business do not
patronize the columns ola newspaper.
If you have not noted this fact then
carefully observe for yourself.
Under the above caption, the HERALD
will, II the next issue, commence a series
Of trade reviews, and we hope that our
merchants will receive financial benefit
from this source, thus materially aiding
the future prospects of Sank Centre
What future prospect has city without
prosperous business enterprises? None.
It either retrogrades or 1t travels in the
same eondition-never acknowledgement

In last weeks issue, the HERALD stated
that ut costs money to obtain advertis-
lug experience. We further say Ca DEM
onstratel &act) that the liberal adver-
tiser receives more than Ten fold benefit
from his announcements. Just now we
recall to mind a quotation, printed in an
English paper, that che who rejects a
shilling for a crown should be disfran-
chised as sabject of Great Britain. !"
What a true statement! 1t certainly
hits the merchant who does not adver-
tise his wares to the reading public.
Again we quote the Chicago self-made
acknowledgements, Marshall Field, as
saving at public gathering that "a
ship at sea, without a rudder, was at
the mercyi of the elements; and the mer-
chant without advertising aid (rudder)
was alike to the ship-at the mercy of
the community" Apply this to some OF
our business men, who complain, even
during prosperous times of having mo
trade" Follow the example of Mar
shah Field by making the acquaintance
of the public through the aid of printers

During his recent visit to this city.
Geo. b. Alton, inspector OF State High
Schools, paid an exalted tribute to s. S.
Parr, superintendent of St. Clio ud's
schools, gentleman quite well known
in this city. He said that Prof. Parr
had a reputation as wide as the Ameri-
can public school system, and ranked
with Prof Kiehl and SHEPPARD in educa-
tional circles. And fun thermore, he ha s
accomplished extraordinary results in
St. Cloud. Prior to his incumbency the
public schools of that city were in a
wretchedly demoralized condition, but
Prof. Parr, backed by board of educa-
ton which relied upon his judgment
alphabetically. had elevated them to
a high plan OF excellence. and that
his work is of the progressive order.

HENRY UMSCHEID,

City collector and one of our pro-
gressive citizens and attorneys,
was born in San Antonio in 1868.
He was educated at st. Mary's col
lege. He began his career in the
freight department of the Arkansas
Pass railroad. In 1890 he was APP
pointed chief clerk in the district
clerks office under G. r. Dashiell.
In 1891 he was appointed by Judges
Noonan and King as district clerk
aud served in that position until a
special election was called. Mr.
Nat Lewis was elected, he (Mr.
Umscheid) refusing to run, but
still continued in the office under
Mr.. Lewis. Shortly afterwards he
left the district clerks Office and
became secretary to County Judge
w. :. McAllister. In 1892 he made
the race for the district clerkship
and defeated Mr.. Lewis in the con-
test. He faithfully served the
public in this position until 1894
when Mr.. Lewis was again re-
turned to the office. Mr.. UmScheid
ran for city collector on the Elmen-
dorf ticket in 1895, was elected and
still holds that position. Mr. UNI
scheid is also an attorney-at-law
and a member of the well known
legal firm of Umscheid & Camp.
He is popular with all classes, is
considered one OF our leading at
torneys and is a wide awake citi-
zen. He is a member of a number
of singing societies, the Arbeiter
Benevolent association, d. r. K,
G. ", Turn Verein, Jockey club,
Mission Athletic club, Mutualista,
Beethoven Mannerchor, Lieder-
kranz, Deutscher Mennerchor,
Business mems club and many 9th
ers. He has always taken a prom
inent part in the upbuilding Of his
San Antonio daily light. [volume] (San Antonio, Tex.) 1886-1907, 1895-12-24

a local office has more OF this ele-
ment than Mr.. Albert Meyer, our
efficient and progressive city audi
tor.
He Is German by birth, and
first saw the light of day in Ber-
lin, in 1889. In 1856 he resolved
to come to the land of the setting
sum-" and made his advent into
San Antonio later on in that year.
He attended the German and
English school here, having pre-
viously obtained his early educa-
ton in Germany. In 1858 he went
to California, with herd of cattle,
and was nine months in making
the trip.
Upon his arrival in that state he
worked in the mines for several
years, and then engaged in the
stock business until 1875, when he
returned to the Alamo City. He
bought the old Knox ranch on the
Frio, and was engaged in the
stock business up TO the fall Of
1884, when he removed to San An
tonic. In 1898 he was nominated
on the Pasehal ticket for the posi-
ton of city auditor and was
elected.
Mr.. Meyer has thoroughly dem
strated his ability to fill the posi-
ton, and we must say that no
man has filled the Office more cred
itably. He is popular with all
classes, and is considered o7e of
our most progressive citizens. He
is an Odd Fellow, a member of the
Legion of Honor, the Ancient Or
der of United Workmen, and the
Beethoven society, and stands
high in these various bodies. True
to the trust imposed in him by the
voters of San Antonio, he has
more than filled the expectations
of his many friends.
