ANNUAL CLUB RECEPTION,
The long anticipated San Angelo
club Reception complete
Success. The Opera
= House ideal in
its artistic
decoration.

The 18th annual reception OF
the San Angelo Club took place
Monday night, February 10th,
at the opera house in San Ange'
10. The club reception is always
looked forward to as the leading
social event of the season, and
this one was no exception to the
rule. In fact from many OF the
participants comes the opinion
that the reception of Monday
night far surpassed any of the
many elegant receptions given
by this popular organization
The opera house was especial
ly prepared for the occasion, and
no expense or labor was spared
to make the hall, what indeed
it was, a bower tit tor the enter
talnment of the handsome mat
rops and beautiful girls OF San
Angelo society
Festoons Of cedar, shot with
white roses, hung in graceful
curves from the ceiling. The
windows were draped with
damask curtains. Two arches
adorned the entrance, one lead
ing to the right. the other to the
left of the hall.
The raised tier of seats at the
back of the hall, sacred to. the
gallery gods, was covered with
white cloth. On one side this
cloth bore the letters S. A. c.
wreathed in cedar. On the other
side were the figures 1902, also
wreathed in cedar. A beautiful
cedar arch stood over the puncl
bowl, aud above this was spread
suspended from the ceiling,
huge japanese umbrella.
The stage was strewn witt
vari-colored rugs, and decor
ated with potted plants and flow
.ers.
The electric lights were sub
dued and softened by the addition
OF pink paper shades, and man!
Chinese lanterns added thei
mellow light to the really beauti
full scene.

ties of the evening were Mes

THE CITY ELECTION.


made recently regarding the new
law relating to election of officers
in cities of the second class, and
to answer these The TRIBUNE
publishes the act in full as passed
by the last legislature:
An Act concerning the election
and terms of office of mayor,
aldermen, city treasurer, city
clerk, city attorney, city marshall
city street supervisor and city
engineer in cities of the second
class, in the State of Colorado,
and repeating all acts and parts
of acts in conflict herewith:
Section l. The qualified elect
ors of all cities of the second class
shall, on the first Tuesday in April,
1901, and every two years there
after, elect mayor, city treasurer,
city clerk, city attorney, city mar
shal, police magistrate, city engi-
neer, city street supervisor, and
two alderman from each of the
several wards of such cities, who
shall hold their respective Offices
for the term of two years, and until
their successors are duly elected
and qualified;
Provided, however, That in all
cases where any of the above
named offices are now filled by
persons whose present term does
not expire until the year 1902, no
election to fiji such offices shall be
held at the election in April, A. ID,
1901, but the incum bents of such
offices shall hold over for the term
for which they were respectively
elected, and until the second Mon
day after the election to be held In
April, A. d. 1902, at which time
vacancy shall exist in all of said
Offices, and the city council of
such cities shall then, by ma
jority. vote of all the members
thereof, fill such vacancies in all
such offices, and the person or
persons so selected and appointed
shall hold Office only until the
regular city election in April, A.
ID. 1903 And the several officers
aforesaid, respectively, shall re-
oeive such salaries for their SER
vices, payable monthly, as the city
council, prior to the election of
said officers, may fix as heretofore
provided by law. And said officers
shall respectively have such powers
and perform such duties as are
provided by law, or by ordinance
of the city council of the city in
which said officers hold their re-
spective offices.
Sec. 2. In case of death, resig-
nation or removal for cause, of any
of the aforesaid officers during
their term of office, the city coun-
Gil may, by majority vote of all
the members thereof, select and
appoint from the qualified electors
of the city, suitable person to
fill the vacancy, who shall hold the
Office until the next biennial city
election.
Sec. 3. All acts and parts of
acts inconsistent herewith are
hereby repealed.
Approved April 30, 1901.
From the above it appears that
Florence, which will now come
under the provisions of the new
law, will hold no city election un-
til April of next year, when there
will be a mayor, clerk, marshal,
police magistrate, treasurer street
supervisor and six members of the
city council elected.

MR.. DE ABAD's STATEMENT.
Attitude of the Cubans Toward House
Reciprocity Bill.

Mr.. l.. V. de Abad. Cuban delegate, makes
the following statement in relation to the
attitude of the Cubans toward the House
bill favoring reciprocity. In an article
which appeared in the papers on Saturday
morning II was intimated that the Cubans
could not be trusted to fulhll their obliga-
tons contracted with the United States. as
set forth in the Plat amendment
This statement is evidently the work Of
the opponents of reciprocity with Cuba
Nothing but passion or ignorance of the
true situation in Cuba could give rise to
such ideas. No sincere and well-informed
person would advance the argument that
the Cubans might in the future refuse to
make a treaty with the United States
Such statement is simply absurd We are
50 united TO the United States that it is
dIfhcult for US even to discuss our separate
. interests
We desire and ought to struggle to Sc
cure treaty based upon equitable prin-
ciples, but before securing this we can
only repeat what has been said in Cuba
during and since the discussion of the
P1att amendment: Take whatever You
want, but leave us in such a position that
We may be able to work and live.
All the struggles recorded in our his
tory have been caused by not having open
10 US the markets of the United States for
our products. and as we need your mar
kets above all things else. how can 1t be
thought that We would stop to discuss a
purely political question? When a man is
on the point of losing his house and find
'.rg himself cast into the street is it likely
that he will turn to discuss platonic ques-
lions?
Many Cubans will have to make pay
ments on mortgages, by order of General
Wood. issued in May, 1901. during the COM
ing month Of May. If We fail to secure
tariff concessions before that time they
Will lose their properties, which will pass
into the hands of foreigners, chiefly Span
iards.
Under these conditions is Ii not cruel,
Is IL not the height OF perversity to i'm
agine that those men would tomorrow
fail TO keep faith with the nation that alone
can save them?
These considerations show how false IS
the attitude of the opponents of tariff re-
auctions. Just causes do not need the
support of sophistry or OF false testimony
to support them
