sSA Y',

it Is strictly and philosophically true that we had an election on Mondas' October ?, 1905, and the democrats, dramatically speaking, expect 10 hold office in a sort of a trleennaflous manner. because the trigonoomnpe'tlrlpc.asi II p-.s triangulation of some of the Waius does not come up to the eXpecialloni of the republican ward heelers. but if the "Cinder' park question had been trifasciated and dropped into soplfNvloh ' there might have been some snow TOT our distinguished auburn-haired friend. But let ly-gones be by-gones. The Tel lows who received the greater numoer of votes are the victors and we are so- ing to keep our eye on the streets particularly the west side or Dalu"ih street, and see if one political party IS any more observing than the other' and while we are keeping our eyes OH the politicians we are not going to ne glect the Tea and Coffee business; no, sir, we are going to keep taps oil when to buy. where to buy, now 10 Ddy and the quality to buy; and Keep OUT store the very best quality for the price you pay us, Remember we al ways guarantee satisfaction with each purchase: we don't want your money if we cannot please you with quality.

SETTLERS CONVENTION.

Almost every state in the union
will be represented at the Northern
Settlers convention III Galveston,
April p to "a, and the occasion
will present one of the most op-
perfume times the Brownsville
country will ever have to exploit
the many natural advantages Of this
section. Many who attend the con-
vention viii be open for conviction
as 10 the merits of the various sec
tons Of the south, and our people
should see to it that this country
and its products are well represent
ed on that occasion. Many Of those
who attend viii be actuated by a
desire TO learn of the conditions
here aud the advantages possessed
In the way OF climate, soil and wa
Ter. ard also to discover what this
section has 10 offer IN the way Of
early crops, the possible damage
from frost, cold, etc. With this in
prospect our representation there
should be such as will be able to
answer ,5itelligeutly and convinc-
ingIythe many questions that will
70 doubt be asked concerning a.
section which IS now attracting a
great deal of attention from all
parts Of the world. The Northern
Settlers convention means much
for the entire State of Texas and
the Brownsville country, its best
portion. wants its share of the good
which this convention will doubt
less bring. Theprogram as publish
ed a few days ago IS a very inter
esting one, and a trip TO the sea
wall city viii be an ideal outing.
Aside from the benefits which 1t IS
hoped the convention will bring,
the well known hospitality of Gal
weston citizens IS an item worthy |
of consideration. THE HERALD
hopes our representation at Cal |
weston will be both large and cap
able and believes the effects of the
convention will be far reaching and !
result in much good TO our section.
