be believed, he, as mayor-so he
says would not be guilty OF specu
lating with, for or against the city
or sell it anything which Is to be
paid for out OF the city treasury
Still the auditors books show thai
5000 entry.
at is all we'll enough to cry out
that George Paschal Is a Republic
can, and exploit the bugaboo OF a
county ring trying to get control
OF the city government; but what
about the impending bankruptcy II
we do not change our methods
well it Is not bugaboo any
longer, the county ring does want
to get hold OF the city government
and bankrupt it,
"'B. c. should walk around his
subject and not squint at 1t from
one side"
("B. c." would have to do much
squirting II the delinquents get
him to boss the treasury again, he
would probably appoint Mr.. Gull
beau as one of his official family
family that has been greatly re-
duced since the Paschal-Elmen-
dorf administration began)
Then Brother Grice had this to
say of Governor Hogg:
"Governor Hogg is taking entire
ly too much dish in the San Anto-
MO city election. He recognizes
only Hogg men as Democrats. OF
course, and says Democrats
must be elected, seeming will
ing to ignore the fact that
there are more Republicans
on the Shardein ticket than
on the Paschal ticket" (This arti.
Gle he closes thus) ellis Excel
lency discloses the true inwardness
of his motive for meddling with our
local affairs by insisting.on a vote
for Shardein "to help Callaghan
out" He at least understands the
situation correctly-av vote for Shar-
dein being vote to help perpetu-
ate the Callaghan rule" Again the
tCallaghan ticket has the least DEM
ocrats. well the ex-governor has
learned to keep silent better. 1 don't
think he had any secret hand in
forming the Clifford-Big Six ticket
And further, on that same 9th OF
February, it says: ga Point for
Taxpayers" Until within week
or two ago much needed work was
left undone by the city on the
ground that there was no money
in the treasury to pay for it, but
today we find large forces Of men
at work in different directions,
some Of the work performed being,
IL not unnecessary, Of a class that
could we'll wait for a more auspi-
cious season. 1t is fur
Their reported that every man
securing employment on the extra
force is required to deposit his
registration certificate with an
agent OF the Callaghan-Shardein
combine and pledge themselves to
vote the Shardein tic ket.
"How long will the people of San
Antonio remain quiescent under
such a manipulation of public en-
ploymeut and public money in
furtherance Of a cotiere Of office
seekers? Every citizen hav-
ing the welfare OF the city should
therefore bestir himself this week
week to see that the Paschal ticket
receives an overwhelming MAORI
ty on Mon day next"
q don't think when the editor
reads himself over he can
any longer support "B. c."
who sets such bad examples. Still
it is time now to spend that $4.15
with accumulated intere st on pub
lie mprovements, for which all
our newspapers have been clamor,
ing so much lately.)
Now let us follow the Elk press
another day, and see what it said
on February 18th, 1898.
"Paschal (now Elmendorf,) Prog
ress and Prosperity is San Anto,
MOS slogan"
Gwen Republican is better
that bankruptcy and repudiation.'
ut is believed that the Capt
Shardein is so afraid of ring" that
he will order all the church bells
m uffied."
"Mc Leary says that Callaghar
is a descendant Of one OF the old
Canary families that more would
We"
(Does that account for the new
song:
I'll treat you in the future, as did in tn,
past,
Well have good time while the hal
million last,
Then perhaps I've accomplished my pc
litical end,
Even taxpayers refuse to vote me cent
