"HAPPY NEW YEAR"
The Auspicious Day Made the Occasion for
Numerous Delightful Social Events
LAND MANY RETURNS"

AS a matter of cold-blooded fact
every day begins new year for each
of Us. But for q good many centuries
now all men have agreed that the
first day of January should begin the
New Year. And they have likewise
agreed that on that day every man
ought to cast out every grudge from
his heart and leave there only peace
and good will to all mankind.
So there were a great many pleas
ant things clustered around the pass
ing of the old and the coming of the
new here in lola, and the REGISTER
has gathered up what it could of
them.
MISS RICHARDS.
In response to invitations issued by
order of a committee, about forty of
the young people of the city gather
ed at the beautiful home of Mr.. and
Mrs. w. II. Richards, to watch the
old year out and the new year in.
The time was happily spent with all
kinds Of games until 1896 was usher
ed in. Then wishing each other a
happy New Year the guests departed
for their homes, glad that they had
been there. The committee who or
iginated and so successfully carried
out their plans are to be congratulate
ed as everyone present had a most
delightful time. Those present were
Misses Clara Welch, Adah Wright,
Lou McMillen, Katie Ausherman,
Eunice Jennings, Mable Thomas,

Spain will not fall into the error
OF making war on the United
States because this country accords
belligerent rights to the Cuban in
surgents. That war is not carried
on according to the usages Of civil
lied nations and Spain is as fully
aware of that fact as is this coun-
try. All that this act Of the sem
ate contsmplates is the placing Of
Cuba in such position that she
can have the moral support of
modern civilization in demanding
the ordinary treatment accorded to
those in war with another power.
When the senate's act is affirmed
in the house and becomes law
Spain will not be long in coming
to the conclusion that it is wisest
and best to treat Cuba as possess
ing belligerent rights.

There are no end Of candidates
for the nomination for congress in
the eleventh district. If that Sec
tion was properly handled by the
republicans and the proper man
nominated and good work done
there is scarcely a doubt that 1t
would fall into republican line
with the Twelfth. There are more
republicans in that district pro-
portionslly to the number Of voters
than in the Twelfth. 1t may be a
little early to look for republican
fruit on that tree this special cleo
ton, but there should be an earn
est effort to change it into the re-
publican column at the regular
election this fall.

Ballington Booth announces his
program. He will not interfere
with the work or the property of
the English headquarters, but he
will not retire from the American
field. He will organize a work Of
like character distinctively Ameri-
can and carry it on in his own
way. He has not yet settled the
details of the plan, but,will do so
shortly and then there will be two
salvation armies in the United
States. One of these must increase
and the other decrease. 1t is not
hard to say which is destined to
go to the wall. The history of poll
tics repeats itself in the history of
evangelization.

The oft-repeated and never salts.
factorily denied charges of bad
workmanship and defective mat
erial should be rigidly looked into.
For men and women who sup
port themselves and families and
serve the public with only the
hope of a contingent reward, it can
be said. that the teachers, police
and firemen of San Antonio set an
example of unselfish patriotism
and self-abnegation rarely dis
played inlthis sordid, money-get-
ting age. And they serve the pub
lie we'll, too.
The members of the council will
hardly be 80 unwise as to divest
themselves Of all authority in the
matter of constructing the sewers
by clothing Mr.. Pancoast with
plenary power to employ and dis
charge whoever his fancy may sug.
gest. A curtailment rather than
an expansion of Mr.. Pancoast's
powers, is the demand of the hour.
There is sufficiency of good re-

"Don't strike while the feelings

which supersentitive debtors

The Chicago Dispatch says
somebody seems to have set the
air.break on the Allison boom
down south" AS it was composed
entirely Of wind, the effort called
forth no extra exertion.
As condition precedent to the
acceptance Of any sewer work per-
formed by contract, United States
government engineers insist that
they shall be tested by securely
plugging the ends of the sections
and filling the cylinders with
water. By this test it is a simple
matter to determine whether the
work has been properly done and
whether the pipes and joints are
air tight, thus preventing the es.
cape of foul and noxious gases.
Why should the city engineer and
the contractors object to a similar
test being applied to the city's
sewers? Are they apprehensive
that they would not satisfactorily
withstand such a test? 1t should
be made, nevertheless, whether it
meets with approval of the contrac-
tors and engineers or not. In
matter OF such profound impor-
lance as the proper construction OF
the sewers, the interests of the city
cannot be too carefully guarded
