The LADIES, CIVIC CLUB.

The ladies of Houston are to be congratulated on
their patriotism in forming civic club for the purpose
of identifying the city Still is the city of Hous-
ton to be congratulated because of it's possession of
such patriotic women.
AS the matter stands now as it aptly expressed
in the call published in Sundays Post the city of Hous-
ton is like the home Of bachelor. 1t needs the touch
of a womans hand
In other cities similar clubs have been formed with
great success The rougher work of street paving
lighting, street cleaning, policing etc. naturally be-
longs to the But there is great deal left over
to be done that is naturally the womans part The
making and keeping the city beautiful with flowers and
plants and trees is womans work. Women have as a
rule more taste than and peculiar knack at fix
ing things up which it is used to great advantage
in every home be used to great advantage by the
women of the city, in association for the whole city
The objects of the civic club are to be cleans
ing and identifying the Streets of vacant lots

THE MUNICIPAL CAMPAIGN IN NEW YORK

The municipal campaign in New York city is being
holly carried The streets of the city are every
where decked with banners and posters of the opposing
parties. Tammany has outwtted the fusionsts in the
matter of political advertising 1t is said that when
the managers of the fusionists attempted to hire bill
board space they found Tammany had secured every
bill board In town. Then they attempted to hire bin
posters to bill the ash barrels rocks, ETC. Tammany
had hired every bill poster in town.
While many of the New York newspapers which
support Shepard the candidate for mayor and the rest
of the democratic ticket oppose Van Wyc in his can
ddacy for judgeship nevertheless the argument is
strongly made that Van Wyck, before he was mayor
made an excellent judge of the superior court that
even his present enemies dispute that and that
therefore he would make good judge of the supreme
court.
AnttTammanyites urged to support the ticket
because 1t is the ticket of the democratic party and
that Shepard who is Brooklyn man, in no sense
Tammanys choice for the democratic nomination. In
deed Shepards record has been that of an aggressive
opponent of Tammany. Democratic orators urge that
the Platt machine is bad if not worse, than Tam
many. That the election of the democratic ticket
means home rule for New York, as, with the veto
power of democratic mayor, Platt's legislation at AL
bany with regard to New York be checked.
Seth Low, the candidate of the fusionsts it will he
remembered, is the who voted against the name
of Robert Il. Lee for place in the Hall of Fame.
On account of its Importance to the cause of the
National democracy is to be hoped that Shepard and
the rest of the ticket will be elected The democrats
claim that they will have majority Of 10000.
