Letter to Juan H. Fernandez.
Brownsville, Texas.

Dear Sir: If you could get the
exclusive sale of a sweeter sugar
for FIVE miles round-1-2lb as sweet
as pound of usual sugar, and cost
no more-you'd Jump at it,
wouldn't you?
There wouldn't be 100 lbs of any
other sugar sold in a year in your
town; you'd gobble the trade; and
it wouldn't hurt your whole bust
ness.
Devoe is like that among paints;
it is twice as sweet as some; it is
sweeter than any; not one excep-
ton; one gallon is two or oue-and-
a-half or one-and-three. quarters.
Better than that; paint has to be
painted; that costs 81 to s. a gal
Ion. A gallon saved is 81 to 81
saved in labor, besides the paint.
Even that isn't all. A gallon
Devoe put-on wears as long as two
gallons put-on at 81 to 81 a gallon
and two gallons more put-on at
s. to 81 a gallon. Count all that.
The paint that wears double costs
less by 3 gallons of paint and 8
gallons of painting; that's about
SIS gallon for those superfluous
gallons.
That's as good as a double-sweet
sugar, isn't it? Yours truly,
F. w. Devoe & Co., New York.

WAITING ON THE WATER
WORKS

What of the waterworks and
electric light enterprise? This is
the question one hears on every
side. Since the granting of a
franchise for these utilities by the
city council, about a month ago,
our people have been anxiously
awaiting news of active steps to
get the project on foot. So far,
THE HERALD learns, nothing
definite has been done in the
matter, but it is assured by. some
of the leading stockholders that
the matter will soon be placed on a
working basis. As noted in We'd
nesday HERALD, the city council
has stricken out of the franchise
the proviso requiring the company
to put up a $4,000 forfeit. This
provision, it appears, met with
very serious objections by the COM
pauy, but, since this obstacle has
been removed, it IS expected that
the projectors will now proceed
actively to work on the enter
prise. The first step will be for
the company to be formally in
corporated aud obtain a charter,
which THE HERALD is informed
will be done in a few days.
This is the present status of the
project. according to the informa-
ton obtained. 1t is sincerely
hoped by ali concerned that the
holders of the franchise may carry
out their intentions aud push the
matter energetically, so as not to
disappoint the town in the hope of
possessing these all important
utilities just as quickly as possible. /
The city council has granted the
as requested, and has

TO ADVERTISE THE
BROWNSVILLE COUNTRY.
Business Mems Club CompIimented on
Exhibit Sent to St. Louis, and Urged
to Send Exhibits to State Fairs.

The following interesting com
munication from VIM. Doherty,
general passenger agent of the St.
Louis, Brownsville & Mexico rail-
road, will be appreciated by
Brownsville readers, who should
actively endorse the suggestions
therein contained:
Corpus Christi, Texas, Sept.
18th, 1906.
Mr.. John Bannon, Sec, Business
Mems Club, Brownsville, Texas.
Dear sir am in receipt of
your favor of the 18th inst, and
beg to congratulate you on ths
efficient and effective manner in
which you have disposed of the
exhibit which was forwarded few
days ago to St. Louis.
I am thoroughly convinced that
there is nothing which so definite
ly, effectively and ably advertises a
community as an exhibit of its
products, especially when that
exhibit comprises such remarkable
samples of production as The
Brownsville country is capable of
contributing.
am glad to hear that you have
taken the matter of an exhibit for
the San Antonio International Fair
in hand, and propose to make it
superior to the one sent to St.
Louis.
In this connection, I beg to say
that l am just in receipt of a letter
from our vice-president and gen
eral manager transmitting a COM
munication from the authorities of
the Dallas State Fair to be held at
Dallas, October 1928, asking us to
arrange for all exhibit representing
our territory. - -
You are doubtless familiar with
the event above mentioned, and
the fact that the invita-
ton extended presents a rare op-
portunity. Dallas is located in the
heart OF what is probably the most
settled portion of the State,
and a section whose people have
become very much interested in
our territory during the past few
1t, therefore, goe s.
without saying that it will do much
to advance our mutual interests if
our territory is represented at the
Fair with a creditable display of
products.
1t is our intention to have our
entire territory represented at Dali
las. However, it occurs to me that
the best results will be obtained if |
the exhibit be divided into two
one representing Sarita
and Kingsville, or the artesian belt, !
and the other the Rio Grande |
Valley, or the Brownsville Coun-
try as it is popularity known.
Inasmuch as your organization
5 so vitality interested in the de-
-eiopnent of the territory adjacent
o Brownsville, I believe that If
The Brownsville daily herald. [volume] (Brownsville, Tex.) 1897-1910, 1906-09-20

should assume the responsibility
OF preparing an exhibit represent
ing the products of the lower Rio
Grande Valley for the Dallas
State Fair. This exhibit should
consist of products of the river
valley in both Cameron and Hi
dalgo Counties, and am sure that
If will if properly prepared, as I
am sure it will be, prove a valueble
spokesman for your section and
accomplish much good for it.
l will be glad if you will let me
hear from you relative to the mat
ter, advising whether or not your
organization will undertake the
matter. The exhibit should be
ready for shipment, not later than
say October 10th, so as to be on
hand when the Fair opens. I think
it would be an excellent plan to
have someone, competent to give
information, accompany the ex-
hibit.
We will, of course, be glad TO
take care of thematter of trans
porting the exhibit.
Kindly let me hear from you or
the subject as early as possible.
Very truly yours,
WM. DoHERTY.

Consul Griffith Returns
to Leave Soon for NoGaIeS.

u. S. Consul P. Merrill Griffith
returned to his station in Mata-
moros last evening, after an absence
of several weeks in the North on
business. As previously announc-
ed, Mr.. Griffith expects to leave
by the end of the month for his
new station at Nogales. While
his transfer from Matamoros to
Nogales causes his numerous
friends and admirers here sincere
regret, on account of parting with
him, yet it is also a source of graf
ifcation to them to know that the
appointment to Nogales is in the
nature of promotion. The depart
ment feels the need of man of
more than ordinary ability and ex-
perience to cope with the rather
complicated and difficult situation
at Nogales, growing out OF the
troubles III the Cananea mining
and the consul general of
Mexico made wise selection in
recommending Mr.. Griffith for the
place. No higher compliment could
have been paid him.

first required, and now 1t is up tc
the promoters of the enterprise to
do their part. It is needless 70
reiterate what has so often been
said in THE HERALD regarding the
vital importance of a waterworks
and electric light system to
Brownsville. All must feel assured
that the further development Of
the town depends almost absolutely
upon the acquisition of these great
public utilities, that very little
more building will be done here
until the town is equipped with
water and light and that the
establishment OF any other in
dustries here is dependent prirci-
pally upon this consideration also.
THE HERALD is positively inform
ed that number of various enter
prises of considerable importance
are now pending the construction
of the waterworks and light sys-
TEN, and unless this be realized the
said enterprises will be very likely
to fall through. Once let this
great project be carried out, and
the town will grow by leaps and
making such immediate
progress along all lines as will
even the most sanguine of
Brownsville friends. Seeing the
very great importance of the i'm
mediate inauguration of the water
works and light enterprise, it is
hoped that the company |
may lose no time in getting the
matter duly organized and on a
basis. Delay can only
-etard development here. while
he speedy accomplishment of the
project will inject such new life
nto the old town as will place
where it belongs-at
he head of the great development
low in progress in the lower Rio
2rande valley.
