J w. Holt of Mission was the last
speaker of the evening. Mr. Holt
also spoke of the diherential and of
the necessity of making Brownsville

half an acre in cucumbers and had

by saying that. if the railroad COM

farmers of the valley would make
the company money.
Following the addresses, the visi-

HARLINGEN NOTES.
Building Boom Still Continues
Many Improvements in Progress.

To The Herald:
Harlingen, Texas, April 2S.-L. A.
Springer & c., contractors and build
ers of this place have. started work on
a five room cottage for W. B. Kill
gore, on his tract of land adjoining
the TOWNSHIP. 1t is to be a very pref
ty and modern cottage and will be
provided with running water and
other conveniences. A novel feature
for this place is the water tower. the
lower part of which will be built in
as a kitchen and the second story
fitted up for servants quarters.
Mr. Kilgore's orange orchard of
twelve acres is certainly a pretty
sight. All the trees seem to be grow
ing and in healthy condition.
H. Morrow evidently finds his large
warehouse too small already, for he
is erecting large hay barn. 1t is up
to the roof and that is partly on.
Pat Haley is erecting livery. feed
and sale barn.
The South Texas Lumber Co. has
let the contract for a large lumber
yard to be put in at the new town of
La Feria to l.. A. Springer & Co. of
this place. 1t is to open up at once
with a complete stock If the yard
here is anything to go by, the town of
La Feria will have a modern up-to-
date lumber yard
Springer & Co have also secured
the contract for the erection of
fine hotel at La Feria. 1t is to be
two-stories high, with double gallery
all around. The plan includes a IA
foot lobby all through the building
down stairs and a 14-foot court up
stairs, all windows to be of French
pattern running to the floor and
each having "a panes of glass. The
plans show very handsome building.
Work is to begin at once.
w. G. Waldo has his house out on
the farm about completed
The bank building is not going
ahead because there is no brick On

The Rio Grande Sash and Door
Co. is asking bids on a 30-foot- addi-
ton to their already large plant.

stores and warehouses before the

twice in less than four months. By
the way anything will grow in this
country if it gets proper attention.
Mr. Riefschneider has completed
a fine little barn for his automobile
and is now turning his attention to the
erection of a fine residence. The
material is now arriving on the
ground. 1t is to be two-story. with
a gable roof and lots of porch, and al
together will be quite an addition to
the town.

Mr.. DOHERTY SAYS so.
Yesterday evening at the smoker
rendered to the visiting freight traf-
nc managers, while discussing the
future development and greatness of
Brownsville. Traffic Manager Doherty
of the Brownsville road stated, with
much earnestness. that Brownsville
would soon become a great metropo-
Ais He told about the rapid growth
and settlement here during the past
lew years, and finally concluded his
remarks by saying that when the new
international bridge is built, connect
ing Brownsville with Mexico, we
might look forward to an era of bust
ness prosperity the greatness of
which We could not at this early date
ca1cnlate This is the first public an
nOuncement that has been made to a
very patient community by a repre-
sentative of the railroad company,
having authority to speak as to the
location of the new bridge. We have
been threatened, like a naughty child
is sometimes threatened, that if we
didn't do as we were hidden, the new
bridge would be located at another
point. The Herald never believed
this sort of stuff. and several days
ago announced, unofficially, of course,
Just about where the new bridge
would be located.
Any Brownsville reader who may
have feared that The Herald was not
accurately informed, or was perhaps
over-confident, will be grateful to
Mr. Doherty for relieving the public's
mind on this all-absorbing subject.
The Herald fully comedies with Mr..
.Doherty in his prediction that
Brownsville will soon be a great me-
ssropolis.
