have paid 100000 for a site in East
Forty-ninth street, on which they
will erect S250,00O apartment house
for themselves and their bachelor
friends. An automobile entrance
and elaborate quarters for horseless
vehicles are to be one of the fea-
lures.

The Brownsville daily herald. [volume] (Brownsville, Tex.) 1897-1910, 1902-09-20

the information wanted about this
section, a letter received last night
by the editor, from a lady whose
address is given as one of the in
terror towns of Texas, is here copied:
Dear Sir:-Will you be kind
enough TO send me some kind of lit
erature that tells of your town, its
inhabitants, resources, etc? Your
postmaster was kind enough to send
me four copies of your paper, but |
would like something more definite
Would it be asking too much of you
to write me giving some informa-
ton.
How do you get to Brownsville?
How many people live there? What
nationality predominates? What
are the principal sources of indus
try? What opportunities are open
for business ventures? Is it a
healthy place? Are the schools pref
ty! DO they raise cotton down
there? Also Is it a fruit country?
This is only sample, but it
gives some idea OF what people want
to know of this country. Most of
the letters are from men, and they
wish chiefly to know the prices of
land, chief products, kinds Of soil,
climate, etc. 1t can easily be seen
how circular might be compiled
furnishing the desired information.
But to do this it will require some
active organization to adopt plans
and put them into effect. Browns
Vile has men with brains and abili-
ty. VIII they undertake it? 1t is
time for Brownsville to wake up
and get in the road ofprsg1ess

A BUSINESS UEY'S CLTB.

Some years ago, The HERALD adj
vocated the organization Of some
sort OF association by the leading
business men and property owners
of Brownsville and Cameron coun-
sty, such as a board OF trade or bust
ness mems association, which should
have for It's Object the advancement
of the business interests Of this SEE
zion. The suggestion was approved
of by number OF the leading men
of Brownsville, but as no one would
take the lead in the matter it was
dropped. One OF the chief objects
of such an organization would be
to distribute literature advertising
the advantages Of this section,
thereby inducing immigrants to
settle here and develop thecountry.
As all thinking men know, the ad-
4fent OF a desirable class Of settlers
anust have a good effect upon every
branch of trade or business here
The necessity OF such an organiza-
sion in Brownsville is more appar-I
ent today than ever before, and
THE HERALD ventures to take up
the subject once more in the hope
1that it may induce our leading PEG
cDle to undertake some such move.
This paper is almost daily receiv-
1ng letters inquiring about this
section and asking for literature
describing its soil, climate, products,
setc. Hundreds Of copies of THE
HERALD containing articles de-
=scriptive OF this section, and setting
forth its advantages, have been
sent out to such inquirers, being in
gnearly every instance gratis, as
i7few have ever sent stamps to pay
s&or them. Many such letters have
sbeen handed THE HERALD by the
postmaster, the county Judge, and
others. These requests have always
aoeen complied with as nearly as
possible, for The HERALD realizes
sthat the development of this sec
ztion must benefit the paper, as we'll
as every other business Institution
there. However, il frequently hap
pens that there are no copies of THE
HERALD on hand which contain
ANY such matter, and letters cannot
sfully answer the purpose, nor does
she editor always have time to write
such letters.
Most other towns, especially in a
growing country, have boards of
trade or similar organizations
which provide circulars or booklets
setting forth the advantages of their
respective sections, which are sent
out to all who request such infor-
anation. 1t costs comparatively lit
sle to have such circulars printed,
and to support the board, whose
Officers usually serve without pay.
IF SEINE Of our public spirited men
swould only 60 into the thing and
exert themselves a little such al
sboard might easily be organized in
Brownsville. Something ofthe kind
would result in great benefit to this
section, and, as before stated, every !
ssranch. Of business in the town
Eould be benefited by it. 1t Is sin
-serely hoped that such a move may
ae undertaken It would show that
sur people are enterprising and up
1o-date, and the mere fact of such
an organization being effected |
would be an advertisement for the
Gown |
As an example Of the nature eff!

QUARTERS IN THE CITY.

Even In the best houses OF this city
the servants quarters are distinctly un-
inviting while in the nat they are I'M
possible. Is II wonder that a girl will
prefer a factory or a shop and be able to
save less money when, on the other hand,
she would have to sleep In a stuffy little
hole leading directly from kitchen In
which she has labored all the day?
There must be a distinct business
agreement between employer and en-
ployed IL this desertion from the ranks
OF the serving women would be stopped,
said Mrs. Harry Hastings. president OF
the New York City Mothers club. In
every trade OF men or women now they
are advancing on that basis, and so 1t
must be In the household. Women will
no longer be drudges or menials. II she
is TO serve in household she must know
exactly what she 10 to do and how long
she Is TO labor.
She must have hours that begin as
promptly as the hours governed by the
factory whistle. and she must have hours
that stop just as promptly. For extra
hours she must be paid, and II she is TO
live In the house she must have her part
OF the house. She must be permitted her
recreations her hours of rest, and they
must never be broken into.

ITO mitigate this condition 1 would first

housewife. and train her.
These days young girls newly married
begin housekeeping absolutely unframed
and untitled for II. They rule by whim !;
they have no system, and the fact that
the women of the household have
thoughts, feelings and sensibilities just
as they have never enters their minds.
To them a servant Is a servant and noth-

leave them at the first opportunity they
wonder and complain Of their harsh fate.
