CYCLING OBSERVATIONS.
BY Observer.


After a month of moderate street
sprinkling the sprinklers have again
inaugurated the old custom Of flood
ing the thoroughfares to the disgust
and annoyance of the cyclists as well
as the public at large. Beside endan-
gering riding and bespattering We
hicles, the block pavement is rapidly
decaying under the constant slush
and mud. A little common sense on
the part of the drivers of the carts
would be appreciated.
1t is a notable fact that San Antonio
is the only city where road rules are
so disregarded and neglected. Nine
out of ten vehicle drivers you meet
on the wrong side of the street. 1t is
really a miracle that accidents do not
occur more frequently.
The road hog is another nuisance to
the travelling public in general and
the cyclist in particular. Some of
them will not concede one inch of the
road even when they are on the wrong
side.
Reckless driving is a common sight
on our narrow and over crowded
streets, but the practice of jerking
around street corners at a break-neck
speed regardless of the safety OF life
and limb of pedestrians or cyclists,
ought to be stopped by all means.
The strict observation of road rules
and little civility mixed with some

Shrewdness of Mckinley in Selecting Him

Shrewdness of Mckinley in Selecting Him
to Conduct the Campaign.
An intimate friend of Maj. McKin-
ley said the other day: "The appoint
ment of Mark Hanna as campaign man
ager was about the shrewdest political
move Mckinley has made in all his ca
reer. Hanna not only devoted his en-.
tire time to the cause, but he contrib
uted freely toward its expenses. A can
vass extending over several years is an
expensive undertaking, and the money
had to come from somewhere.
''Mr. Hanna said recently that the
canvass cost him 100000. OF that
amount $4,000 was contributed by
friends of Mckinley throughout the
country. As one item of the expense it
may be said that the cost of keeping the
friends of the cause posted on its prog
ress was S2,500., twas done by mailing
1900 copies, daily of one of the local
official organs to the convention dele
gates and leading republicans in all
parts of the country. That was done
for several months, and was but sin
gle feature of one CT the most perfect
political organizations ever made in a
political campaign"H
