ATTEND THE R. R. MEETING.

The meeting called for tomorrow, to
consider the proposition for building
railway to connect this city directly
with deep water at the gulf coast and
open to the retail trade of town the en-
wire Guadalupe valley, is one which
should enlist the operation of every
business man. The one drawback to
the movement is the present scarcity
of money coming as it does upon the
heels of three years of stagnation.
But it is also to be remembered that
the sky is lifting and the clouds roll
ing away and prospects are bright for
returning prosperity, so that the mon
ey would be much easier paid when
due that now appears. Not only so,
but railroad building is the surest an
tidote to dull times that the country
possesses, and the building of this road
as outlined by its promoter, Col. Uriah
Lott, would return to San Antonio in
the course of it's building alone al
most all that the city would pay in
putting 1t upon its feet. This is a
matter in which words are at a dis
count What is needed is attendance
upon the Tuesday meeting. Meet with
the Business Men on that occasion
and hear what is to be said. note the
feeling of the public pulse in that mat
ter, consider carefully the probable adj
vantages. Do this in the proper spirit,
of enlarged conceptions of the future
of the city, and then you will be bet
ter prepared to act inteligently and
for the Increase of all our enterprises.

CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENTS.

The voters of the state of Texas will
be called upon on Tuesday, August Sd,
to vote upon three propositions sub
mitted to them by the late Legislature
of the state. These are Irrigation; :
Valuation of Certain issues to the
School Funds; Bonding Certain Coun-
ties to secure Railway Construction
The irrigation proposition has been
pretty thoroughly discussed and the
reasons pro and con already set forth.
The Light had its say upon that pro-
position in Saturdays issue. AS to
the others there will be also differences
of opinion. That act validating the
bonds, for court houses and jails and
bridges, which have been purchased
by the school funds of the state as an
investment, should be voted affirma-
lively, as otherwise the school funds
of the state are out to the extent Of
approximately 100000. At the time
these bonds were purchased 1t was
thought they were so bought in a per-
fectly legitimate manner, the bonds
themselves being taken as constitu-
tionally issued. 1t now appears
that at the time of issue some
of these counties thus issuing
had made no provisions for their
redemption and the payment of inter-
est upon them and in this particular
were therefore illegal, as being not ac-
cording to law. 1t is now sought to
legalize such bonds, to the intent that
the school fund might not be reduced
that amount, 100000. There is only
justice and a proper regard for the
children Of the state involved in this
vote and the proposition should carry.
The other proposition, to enable coun-
ties in certain localities to issue bonds
for the construction of standard gauge
railroads., is one that affects Bexar
county along with many others. 1t is
a grave question how far it would be
wise to add to our county Indebtedness
in this way at this time The late
issue of such bonds to the Gulf Shore
road was not so distinguished a sue
cess in its outcome as to encourage
farther work in that direction, at least
not unless the conditions are so chang
ed as to insure a return from the in
Vestment somewhat adequate to its
Importance. These are the PROPOSE
tons before the voters of Texas. The
Light has set the matter before the
voters and leaves it to their wisdom
to act.
