throwing garbage into the streets and
alleys greatly adds to the unclean-
ly condition of our cities, and max
es it the harder for the city scav-
enger to do his work. If all of the
residents would always take pains
to collect the trash and garbage
accumulating on their premises in
to suitable receptacles and have it
ready for the scavenger to cart a
way daily, the results would soon
appear in the very material i'm
provement of both the health and
the appearance of their city.

THE SAP PARADOX.

Although Mr.. Monserrate de-
clares that, sin spite of all obsta-
cles," the Sap railroad will be built
into Brownsville within two years,
we observe that interested parties,
both in Texas and the East, are
unceasing in berating the Texas
Railroad Commission for rejecting
the Sap proposition. In financial
circles in New York, the action of
the Commission is regarded as the
death blow to the proposed extern
sion of the Sap from Alice. In fact,
it has all along been understood
that such would be the case. Mr..
Markham 50 stated. Mr.. Houston,
the Sap attorney, SO argued before
the Commission. The interviews
with all the managing officials of
the Sap, as pupmshed in the daily
newspapers, have been to this
effect.
The general public has been lead
to believe that the building of the
Sap into the Brownsville country
wholly depended upon favorable
action by the Commission, and so
the pressure of public opinion was
sought to influence the action of the
Commission in the premises. Now
that adverse action was taken there
is seen the most remarkable ex-
ample of what is called a paradox
that we remember to have ever
observed.
Mr.. Monserrate says the extern
sion will be made in spite of all
obstacles. The San Antonio Ex-
press and Houston Post-the
Literary Bureau-the attorneys and
Others having financial interest in
the Sap road still contend that I'M
less the Commission reconsiders its
action and grants the requests of
the Sap the road can only not be
built into Brownsville. but that Il
great and prosperous territory will
perforce be abandoned to its custo-
mary isolation and desolation and
despair
Now who is right in the matter?
The Sap will either build. or it
wont. 1t can or it can't. We would
like to see it build, but candidlv We
do not believe it can. When will
the paradox be cleared, and who
viii clear It?

Too Much Haste.

The jublilation of the slot ma
chine magnates was of short dura-
ton. The decision of the state
court, 1t Is held, by competent
legal authorities, does not impsir
the powers of special chartered
municipalities to legislate against
gaming nor restrict them from max
Ing arrests and prosecuting gam
blers.
It would have been we'll had
some of the slot machinists CHS
refers to the owners specifically
and not particularly to those who
play the insidious devices) If they
had withheld their enthusiasm till
they ascertained the full scope
and effect of the courts de
cree. Their going of half cooked.
as 1t were, shows lack of the con-
servative qualities that characterize
men of business. In consequence,
some of them have lost costly gam
Ing devices, are charged with an
offense against the majesty of the
law, are put to the expense ofre
tanning a lawyer or two, and will
In the end be punished, as they
should be. Their alacrity to accept
an unauthoritive synopsis of
conrt's opinion, was an evidence of
paucity of discretion and willing
ness to fl ,grantlv violate the law at
the first opportunity, For all of
which they are doubtless now
heartily sorry.
The 1aw Is not ample enough on
the slot machine question. There
Is need of some especial and spe-
cifc legislation on that subject,
both by the state legislature and
councils of towns and cities. The
loopholes that seem apparent should
be stopped up by some direct and
adequate enactments and this
should be done as soon as possible.
In the meantime the charter be-
slows on our council ample author
ity to legislate specifically against
any and all forms of gambling. It
should at Its earliest meeting, take
up the consideration of the matter
and enact ordinances that will for
ever do away with all kinds Of
gambling violations effectually and
abolish the slot machine for ali fu-
ture time to come,-Parkersburg
