Another tourist excursion left the
north Tuesday carrying homeseekers,
investors and pleasure seekers from
the icy sections of the country to
Texas, the land of perpetual summer.
Many of these excursionists will find
their way to the Lower Rio Grande
Valley and some of them at least will
come with the object of becoming
home builders. The valley offers ev-
cry possible inducement to those who
wish to establish home. The eli
mate is ideal, the soil rich and pro-
ductive. Brownsville people should
afford the visitors every opportunity
terinvestigate the valley and hold out
every inducement to these homeseek-
ers to come here and help improve
the city and country.

THE SEWER QUESTION
Sanitary Necessity. AS Well as
Convenience.

81 am more than pleased with the
movement that has been started to
install a sewerage system in Browns
vile, and l hope to see it carried to a
speedy and successful ISSUE" said a
prominent Brownsville business man
today. The party in question, who
requested that his name be not men
toned, was out of the city when the
sewerage agitation was started and
was agreeably surprised on his re-
turn yesterday to learn of the move
that had been made for civic improve
ment. Il have been out of the city
several days" he said, "and did not
know anything of the movement until
| returned. / shall lend the move
ment every aid in my power
1 regard sewerage as the most i'm
perative need of Brownsville at the
present time. 1t is true we need 9TH
er civic improvements, such as side
walks, paving, street railway, ETC.,
but none of these are so necessary as
sewerage The others are a. matter
largely of personal convenience and
comfort, but sewerage is a sanitary
need and is an absolute necessity as
a protection to the health of the COM
munity.
Il am glad to see the business men
taking hold of this matter and sin
cerely hope they may succeed. While
am generally speaking, in favor of
municipal ownership of sewerage,
and, in fact, of all public utilities. /
realize the city's position financially
and regard the present plant as tan
tamount to municipal ownership, as it
insures the city the right to acquire
the system as soon as it is in posi-
ton to do so.
The gentleman's remarks seem to
voice the sentiment of the people of
Brownsville generally and the out
look is that the committees will have
very little trouble raising the neces-
sary funds to install the system.

It is President Taft now At high
noon today at the great capitol build
ing in Washington City, the oath of
Office was administered to VIM. H.

president of the United States. The
new executive head of the govern

not only a man of superior ability,
but one of clean morals He is said
to possess much more tact than Mr..

his administration will move much
more smoothly than that of his siren

TEXAS INoEPENoeNcE DAY.

AUSTIN, Tex, March 2.-In accord ance with a custom followed for many years the anniversary of the inde- pendence of Texas was observed to- day as a semi-holiday throughout the state. The state offices and court s were closed for the day. flags were literally displayed and appropriate ex- ercises were held in the schools and under the auspices of the various pa triotic and historical societies.
 It was seventy-three years ago to- day, on March 2. 1886, that the con ventiOn met to declare the independ- ence of Texas and to draft a consti- tuition. The gathering was at Wash inston, On the Brazos. The exigen- cies of the warfare Texas was main taininG against Mexico were believed to call for radical measures. Inde- pendence was declared and Gen. Sam Houston was reelected commander in-chief of the armies Of Texas. Day i'd c. Burnet was made president Of the new republic and Lorenzi De "a. vala vas elected vice president

BOARD HAS NAMED THE
 COPPER CITY
Supervisors Will Locate coun- ty Poor Farm There-Mod- ern Hospital Is Planned For Cochise.

A tAo result Of tho meeting of the county supervisors at Tombstone on Monday. the county made a move to- ward obtaining land in the vicinity Of Douglas for a county poor farm and hospital. Supervisor Scheerer ol that place was instructed to look into the title 10 several pieces of property and ascertain particulars as to title. The county proposes to expend be- tween $25,e0O and s30,o00 upon the institution
 For several months the county has been locking for suitable site for the farm and hospital and many ls- cations have been suggested. At onts time nesotiations with the Warren Ranch owners were undertaken. bat no satisfactory agreement could be reacaed. Since that time. however. members Of the board have been look Ing in the vicinity of Douglas, which made a strong bid for the institu- ticn, and have found several locations which might be used for the pur- rc-s.
 Alr. Scaeerer was instructed to as certain whether clear title to any or all Of the land might be obtained. Ap-
 ra'sers will be appointed and the property condemned afterward being
 ought in by the county at a far price.
 While no plans for the county poor house and hospital have been adopt cd. it is probable that the building will be of either brick or cement blocks. It will be equipped in the most modern manner, giving both comfort and facilities for treating any cases whica may be brought to it.
 We believe that by buying a large farm We can cut the expense which the county is yearly to at least fin halI." said Supervisor J. J. Bowen yesterday. at present we are spend ing about S25.000 a year upon indi- gent people. The garden produce and chickens. as well as other animals that conld Dc raised on the farm. would go far toward making it self supporting It would give far more comfort to inmates also"

MARKET MOVEMENTS
Of THE DAY

New York. Sspt. e;-Trading in
stocks fell to low ebh today. During
the afternoon the condition became
stagaant The decision Of the stock
exchange authorities to close the eS-
changes tomorrow in observance of
III Hudson Fulton celebration was
partly responsible for this. The dull
ness OF the trading left little motive
power in the price movement and its
waverinS course could not fairly be
accepted as a reliable index Of any
opinions on values. Preliminary esti-
rates Of the weeks currency move
ment point To a small gain by the
banks from tho interior. but smaller
than last week and with tho tide of
the outward movement from this
center rising. The loss tn the sub
treasury or s...952,eo0 has been re-
duced. apparently. by a fey hundred
thousand dollars by reason of the re-
ceipts from the interior. There was
a slight lowering nj the private dis
count rate In London today. Advices
from abroad represent n widespread
and increasing demand for money at
all the great centers. The feature of
the dealings was the number Of in
diyidual transactions in Reading and
to some extent in United States Steel.
The persistence with which Reading
was pushed for sale on the advances
and forced back had much IL do with
the vacillating tendency of the whole
list.
When the pressure on Reading sub.
sided tendency of prices to rise
moderately came into notice. United
States Steel and the pacifies showed
some strength. The final drive against
Reading determined the closing tone
