Token of Regard.
(SEAL)

F. K. Greenway, manager of The
Mesa Dry Goods company. was this
morning greatly surprised, being pre-
sented with very handsome token of
the regard of the employees of the es-
tablishment.
The token took the form of hand
some pipe, of the simon pure French
Brier' variety, with solid gold and
silver trimmings surrounding the
bowl The pipe was contained in a
very serviceable and beautiful case
made of chamois and heavy leather
trimmings. The whole was = very
beautiful present and its presentation
took Mr.. Greenway wholly unprepar-
ed for such an event. Mr.. Frank
Stanek. on behalf of the employees of
the store. made the presentation and
in passing said that they believed that
Mr.. Greenway had always worked for
thei- best interests and had made
their labor as light as possible for
them consistent with good business
methods.
Mr.. Greenway fittingly responded
and said that he was taken unpre-
pared for any such an event but that
he no less appreciated the token of es-
TEEN and said that he knew that if
he had met the approval of the EN-
ployes of the store that he had not
travelled far from the path of duty in
its conduct for those in whose employ
he was
The event was most pleasant one

In order to illustrate how determin
ed the promoters of the St, Louis
Brownsville & Mexico Railroad
are to push the road through with
all possible spend, it is only nrces-
sary To state that the contract to
deliver the steel rails from the
mill in the East has been let tn the
San Antonio & Arkansas Pass road
at price of $4,000 more than it
would have cost to have transport
ed the rails by water. The contract
to deliver the 100000 feet'of
ties has been sublet by the Kirby
Lumber Company to the Mexican
National Railroad Company. These
ties will be loaded on barges at the
mills in East Texas and brought
direct to Corpus Christi, where
they will be transferred To a
switch constructed by the Mexican
National Railroad and transported
to Rogers, from which point the
work of building the track has
commenced.

The reason Brownsville has not

Active Railroad Work.

Julius Henry of Corpus Christi
who arrived on last nights stage
in speaking of the progress being
made by the St. L. B. & NJ. rail
road, said that at Robstown the
company is boring for artesian
water with prospects of early sue
cess. There are nine grading outfits
at work about fifteen miles out,
and one of them left the main body
to work southwark from Olmitos.
1t is expected that they will reach
Kingsville within two weeks. A
grade in the form of Y has been
made at Robstown for a junction
with the Texas Mexican.
The main wharf at Corpus
Christi is now being placed in con-
dition to receive ties for the road,
the first shipment will arrive early
in September, and they will at once
be placed on the grade. The laying
of rails will follow soon thereafter.
At Alice there are ties sufficient
for twenty-five miles of road, which
Mr.. Henry said are supposed to be
for the extension of the S. A. q A.
P. railroad to Brownsville. No
actual work on this line has vet
been done, except in the way of
surveying.

of Mexico by the National. Their
own line extended to Brownsville,
thence to Tampico, to which port
they are heading. gives them an
outlet by sea on the Mexican Gulf.
There is also the harbor at Brazos
Santiago, which the Orient would
touch by reason of the short connec-
ton extending from Brownsville to
Point Isabel and which port of
Brazos the federal government will,
at no distant day, deepen and i'm
prove to accommodate large ocean
going steamers. The immense ton
mage secured along the Rio Grande
would give the Orient all it could
do in delivering this freight to fast

for delivery at Atlantic ports.

sion with hegreatestinterest. That

INFLUENCE or THE PRESS

The ever bright Orange Tribune
has the following pertinent remarks
in late issue:
The potency of the newspaper
press is, in all large cities, acknowL
edged as by far the most material
factor in public promotion and
CIVIC progress. To a less extent this
same influence is acknowledged bv
smaller communities and by in
divlduais, and the fact is plain to
the least obServant that those who
most appreciate such a factor for
promotion are without exception
the wlSest and most successful men
IN their respective communities
Whenever anything is suggested for
the good Of the community the
newspaper, if it be worthy the
name, Is instantly ready to take up
the suggestion and quick to learn
and present its good points; and.
by Its efforts, public interest Is sus-
tanned, when otherwise it would not
be possible. More frequently. in
act, the suggestion comes from the
paper, Is vigorously followed I'D bv

achievement result.
