SATURDAY. JULY 20. 1907
An INSULT TO OUR
CITIZENS

The fact that street car syn
dictate of Shreveport, La, which
wants the franchise to build the
water and light plant at Browns
vile, has deposited the paItry sum
of 81, 500 in each of the local banks
IS alleged to have influenced those
institutions in favor of the designs
of the said syndicate. THE
HERALD does not hesitate
70 say that it does not believe that
men of such business integrity as
those who stand at the head of our
banks could be influenced by such
a mean consideration. In fact,
TEE HERALD does not doubt that
these citizens are astute enough to
see through the designs of the
sueeth representative of the
Shreveport concern, and if they
have paid any attention to the
natter, there can be no doubt that
they regard the act as being in ex-
ceedingIy bad taste, being so plain
zy intended to influence the people
of Brownsville against the pend
ing bond issue for water anG light.
They cannot help but feel that the
effort to influence our citizens by
the deposit of this paltry sum in
the town just as the election was
called is an insult to the intel
Iigence and integrity of the citi-
zenship of Brownsville. We will
hardly sell ourselves body and
soul for half a century to a
Shreveport street railroad sym
dicate because that concern has
seen FIT to deposit this diminutive
sam in our town.

CONE, now, just think the wa
terworks and light question over
once more, and join forces with the
side of city ownership and progress.
The bond issue means the imme-
date construction of a water and
light plant. The franchise means
u1ore delay, uncertainty, greater
expense in the end and the build
ing up of private fortunes at the
expense of the taxpayers. Come
ever, and help the cause of the
oeaDle-

Reports from London state that the
results of the careful Investigations
and experiments of the Royal Commits
sion on tuberculosis indicate that there
are two kinds of consumption. When
the bacilli of these diseases were adj
ministered to animals those from one
group caused rapidly fatal general tu-
berculosls, while the germs of the other
group though given in far larger doses,
had only slight local effect, and the
disease tended to undergo spontan-
eous cure, but the Investigations have
not yet reached a point where it is
practicable to determine with certainty
from which type of disease the pa
tient is suffering. One of the results of
the experiments made seems to be to
discredit Koch's view that bovine and
human tuberculosis and different dis
eases.

STORIES FROM HOME AND ELSEWHERE

From Tuesdays Daily.
Mrs. Alphonso Freidricks yesterday
received a telegram from the Notre
Dame canvent in Chicago informing
her that her daughter, Sister Anna,
was very sick and advising her to
come. She started on the afternoon

another telegram came, saying that
her daughter had died.
Mr.. Freidricks arrived home last
night from the northern part of the
state, and left for Chicago today.
Funeral services will be held there
Thursday morning at nine o'clock.
The deceased was twenty four years

became a sister several years ago, and
for four years was connected with the
convent of Chicago. She was a highly
esteemed young lady, and her unex-
pected death is great shock to her
many friends.
