THE CLUB LIVES.

The Business Mems club has con
cluded to run another year; but 1t has
not secured within $500 of the amount
really necessary to put it into the
best working condition. The only
way in which this deficiency can be
made good in by increasing the mem
bership of the club. One hundred
more live paying members would fill
the bill and put the club where it
would not have to puzzle it's brains
from day to day to discover where the
current running expenses were to
and the press of this whole section of
thanks and patronage of the citizens,
particularly the business men of every
class, and it should be literally sup
ported. 1t is already devising liber-
al things for the coming year and in
its good work should receive every en-
enlargement. The movement of the
club, to induce the legislature to make
additional appropriations for the
Southwestern Lunatic asylum should
be vigorously supported by the people
come from. This club has deserved the
the state. There is no economy in try
ing to run that institution on bare
poles, or with less room for patients
than the actual needs of this region
of the state calls for. The memorial
to the Legislature is in good hands
and will put the matter in the very
best possible shape before the Austin
sOlons. The matter of tourist hotel
in San Antonio was also brought for
ward by the club, and put upon its de-
velopment, by being entrusted to q
committee to cooperate with those
who propose to aid from abroad in it's
construction. The plan proposed is
feasible and there should be no hitch
in coming to an agreement as to ways
and means. The city of San Antonio
is to be congratulated upon its having
the services of such an organization
as the Business Men club. This is
not Il club for buiness men to hit the
business of San Antonio with, but
some seem to think it is from the way
in which they refuse to aid its work.
1t helps San Antonio. San Antonio
should help it. Give the club the
power, and it will knock out all that
impedes our progress.

WANTED {! GOOD ALDERMEN

When this election is over and the
votes are counted and the returns
made, it will be seen that it was an
aldermans election. The people are
looking out for the members OF the
city legislature at this time with a
closer scrutiny than ever before. Not
one of the aldermanic tickets as an
nonced is likely to be elected, but can
didates on each will form the incom-
ing city council. The success Of any
one ticket is going to depend more on
the character of the candidates for al
derman than on any other one thing,
| At least this seems to be the senti-
! ment expressed upon the streets and
| where election matters are discussed.
The candidate for mayor will be Sc
lecetd for his company. and for the
disposition that he is thought to enter
tain toward energetic and economic
legislation. How much figure the
idea is going to cut. that the admins
tration that began the construction
of sewers should be permitted to fin
ish them, remains to be seen. 1t did
have its influence some years ago in
continuing the administration in pow
err that undertook street paving, and
it may have some weight now. How
ever that NAY be, IL is cerGlm mat
the careful consideration of alderman
ic timber is one of the features of the
present campaign. This is wise and
necessary, for upon the constitution
of the city legislature must depend
the cnarcater vi me cILy SOvvrnlneIL.
The will of the people is expressed in
the acts of the city legislature, and
the mayor is only The O11cer to execute
those laws and regulations which find
expression in municipal ordinances.
A council that is positive, individual,
determined that it's acts shall be en-
forced, is demanded. Such a council
will never be the tool of the executive
and il he lack backbone can do much
wards, who will compose the city coun-

Unless care is taken in their selection
there will be no improvement in city
No citizen is a whit
to good to represent his ward. The
best material should be selected. That
this has not always been done a re-
view Of the several tickets shows.
What is wanted is n careful seItc-
ton of the best from what is offered.
1t is not too late for some of the
wards to hold Independent meetings
and put before the people candidates
to represent them who will be an i'm
prOvement upon any now in the field.
Remember, that upon the character
of the Board of Aldermen rests the
future of the city.

THESE FACTS TELL.

In the third quarter of 1897. accord
ing to statistics compiled by Brad
streets, the number of business failures
IN the United States WAS 2.Su9. AGAINST
S.67S in the corresponding part Of last
year. The difference WAS 500. The rate
Of decrease was - per cent.
In the same three months the total
liabilities of business concerns which
failed were $2I,S2S. 164. In the cor.
responding quarter Of 1896 the liabili-
ties of the wrecked business houses
reached an aggregate Of $65. S14.356.
The decrease was S40,926.l92. The rate
Of change was e. per cent.
Such figures are the natural fruit of
the immense increase in the same pc
riod which is shown by the exports OF
wheat, corn and domestic merchandise
in general. by the great expansion az
bank clearings, railroad earnings. and
the tonnage movement on land and
water. They are IN perfect harmony
with the rise in prices and the renewal
of confidence IN business circles.
