There appears to be a cloud in the
title Of San Antonio to that appropri-
alton for her insane asylum. At least
it is asserted that under no consider
alton will the Senate agree to the ap-
preparation as made by the House.
This is to be regretted, for that appro-
priatiOn is a real necessity, not for
San Antonio, 'but for the unfortun-
ates of this section of the state who
are, by every consideration of human
ity, entitled to the asylum that it pro-
vides for them. The refusal of the
Legislature to provide the additional
accommodations required will only
force these unfortunates into the
county jails where it is not possible
to properly care for them. A great
and wealthy state like that of Texas
ought not to be so niggerdly In its ap-
preparations for those who are so un-
able to care for themselves and many
OF whom are unsafe at large.

There is growing impression
among all classes that the organiza-
ton of the Greater New York is going
to knock out the Republican party in
the state to considerable extent.
Even those who have been so promin-
ent in promoting the new order are
seeing as the details are arranged the
danger to the proper control of the
state by its better elements, but it is
too late to change the babies in the
cradle now, and the outcome can only
determine to what extent the fear is
well founded. How far it is wise in
any event to create such unwieldly
municipalities in this country may
be questioned. 1t is not possible to
refer them to the conditions prevail
ing in the older and more conserva-
tive countries of Europe, where such
grOwths of population are more grad
ual and governments less radical.

BUILDING AND LOAN FRAUDS

1
Proceedings of the state Legislature
of a late date announce that Senator
Bowser has presented a bill provid-
ing for the chartering, organization,
regulation Of homestead building and
loan associations. There will be no
trouble about the organization and
chartering. Such associations are as
plenty as blackberries in the season
and will continue to be until they are
prevented by proper regulation. Then
it may be hoped that the frauds will
be wiped off the slate and the legiti-
mate associations protected in their
work. AS it has been in this city,
and no doubt elsewhere, these associ-
atiOns are the favorite methods of
swindlers for pocketing the cash of
the uninitiated or the credulous, and
at times of the careful man of bust
ness as well. The charter is readily
secured, the swindlers are elected to
office and the game begins. The books
are opened, subscriptions to stock are
taken, the first payment or two-is re-
ceived by the treasurer and all is
square on the surface. Applications
for loans are carefully considered, so
carefully that no loans are ever made,
unless to a confederate, more subscrip-
lions to stock are taken in, receipts
multiply and the treasury is worth
grabbing. When the pressure for
loans becomes too strong to be resist
ed there is a sudden vacuum in the at
mosphere surrounding the office and
the treasurer and manager are among
the things that were and are not. The
subscribers are left with the bag to
hold and the Originators and promot-
ers of the scheme go elsewhere to
try on their swindle. Some regulation
that will prevent this would be well
worth the attempt of the state Legis-
lature Pending that it would be
well for our home people to remem-
Der that it is wisest to patronize home
industries and put their money into
the building and loan associations al
ready organized and doing legitimate
business. There are enough of these,
and they are doing, their business
about as low as it can be proftably
The remedy lies in giving
no credence to the promise of flaming
or the specious pleadings
of oily gammons whose sole bust
ness it is to gull the public for their
own personal profit. The game has
been played too often in every city of |
the state, and if the Legislature will |
put an eXtinguisher on it there will |
be one long credit mark for the solons. |
AS a rule it is well to look out for the |
tongued stranger whose cap
ital is his oily tongue and whose pro-
fession is TO live by his wits. Home
industries come first and if the deal
is made with home people there is
little danger of a wholesale swindle. |
