THE GREAT PRESIDENTIAL
CAMPAIGN OF 1900.


The policies Of the great pc Utica
Easties are now being formed and
the candidates discussed. The voice
of the people as recorded by ballot
at the approaching Presidential
election will probably decide the
policy Of the nation for the next
decade Every citizen mnss study
the great questions that are to
cone before the people. This can
only be done through the medium
of a great newspaper. Now. is the
time, therefore, fer every voter to
subscribe for the brst and most
reliable newspaper obtainable. The
Semi eekly Republic covers the
whole field Of political news. While
it is Democratic, it publishes the
nows in regard to all political par
sdes without prejudice. It's tele
graphic and cable news service is
superior to that of any other paper.
It's special features are the BEST.
In fact, it is the paper for that
large class Of readers who cannot
afford or do not have access to the
daily papers.
Attention is also called to the
Republics Sunday Magazine. It's
half-tone illustrations are alone
worth the subscription price. 1t is
made up of special articles by the
best literary talent, embracing g
variety of subjects of current in
terest. News features of absorb
ing interest are illustrated and en-
larged upon. For the benefit of the
ladies the latest fashions are hand
somely illustrated. The Republic

Ialty and friendship to Americans,
he has been sending supplies to

FOR BROWNSVILLE'S RELIEF

Corpus Christi, Tex, Dec. g.
Owing to the fact that the Morgan
line steamer Clinton has been
withdrawn from the freight trans
portatiou trade between Galveston
and Point Isabel and Brownsville,
and has left these places in an en-
barrassed predicsment, with no
way of securing any freight, it is
learned>that it has devolved upon
Corpus Christi to como to the rescue
and furnish a vessel to ply in
this trade. The large, modern and
fast schooner Folly, Walker
master, of this place, it is learned
will embark in the freight trade
between Galveston at once and sup
plY the necessary demands of
these places. The Folly is ore of
the fastest yachts on the Texas
coast and will be able to make
weekly trips between Galveston
and Point Isabel. The first trip
will probably be made this week.

IMPORTANT re BROWNS
VTELE

The attention of THE HERALD
has been called by Judge Thos
Carson to a request recently pub
Iished by Gov Sayers for all Giles,
towns aud business organizations
Of the state that are interested in
The development of the states har-
bOrs or waterways to send delegates
20 the convention to be held at
Galveston Dec. % and % next, for
the consideration of that important
subject and to devise methods
whereby their development may be
secured. The governors request
is copied elsewhere in this even
ing's issue, and the matter is earn
tstly recommended to the attention
of the readers of The HERALD. AS
will be seen, the governor recon-
mends that county judges, mayors
and business organizations appoint
and send representatives to this
convention. 1t scarcely need be
said that this immediate section is
most vitality interested in the mat
Ter to be considered, and should by
all means be represented In the
proposed convention. 1t would be
well for the citizens to hold pub
lie meeting and elect one or more
delegates, at the same time raising
a subscription to defray the ex-
penses of such representative or
representatives. All points in Tex
as that have water communication
Of any sort aIe elamOring for ap-
preparations to secure the develop
nent of such harbor or waterway
as they may possess, yet there are
none that have such great need of
harbor improvements as the Sec
ton tributary to the harbor Of
Brazos Santiago, and few, that
possess such excellent natural ad-
vantages to work upon. And it
should also be the duty of repre-
sentatives from this section to
Bring up the subject of the inter
coastal waterway which could so
easily be accomplished between
Point Isabel and Rockport, in
which project the entire southwest
coast country is interested.
Let Us then not lag behind in
this vitality important matter. We
should be represented at Galveston
by some citizsn who will make q
good showing for his town, one
who is good talker, and who will
go thoroughly posted upon the
subject in hand, and well prepared
to set forth the claims of Brazos
Santiago pass and harbor, and of
baguna Madre for proper develop
ment.
THE HERALD will be pleased to
publish a call for such a meeting,

SPARROW DAY.

Some weeks ago the writer spoke in a short editorial about establishing sparrow day fer Indiana. The sugges- ton has met with hearty response from the press of the state. There can be no doubt about the good that could be accomplished by having a day when every person in the state would kill as many sparrows. as possible. The gov ernor might name the day, the press would make it public and the people would do the rest.-Muncie Herald,
Arizona republican., 1899-05-02

the democratic leaders is cant of the most disgusting sort, and voters who are now deceived by it will be consid- erably enlightened in the matter be- fore the next contest between the parties comes up for decision at the polls.
 As for laboring men, they should not be too nasty about throwing their arms wide opan to the new trust issue of the democratic party, lest they should be hoist with their own palard, The supreme court of Arkansas has re- gently decided that labor organizations come within the meaning of the law as to combinations whose purpose is tc forestall competition, inasmuch as they avowedly exist to regulate the price of labor and direct who shall have preference to employment. Econ omists and sociologis:s generally con- cede that lat,-r organizations, prop e~ly conducted, are be1efcent institu- tions, preventing much injustice to large bodies of men who ara at dis advantage, and tending to keep wage prices at a fair level. The number who object to them in America is rel ative,y few. But the point is, if the labor organization men espouse the democratic doctrine that capital can-
 net be combined to regulate produc-
 tion they will virtually take q stand
 against their own excellent plan O.
 combirIing their sarcngth and may
 compel the courts to decree against
 that form of alliance which is main l tained for their go-d.
