INCLUDE THE COURTHOUSE.
Closing.

The Herald wishes to emphasize
the suggestion Of Mr.. Stegman, as
made in his communication Of recent
date on the extension of the city
paving. Mr.. Stegman is eminently
correct. The true principle of mu-
nicipal management beyond doubt is
to be found in the old maxim, "the
greatest good to the greatest num-
Der"
While the new court house will be,
when it is finished, a county insti-
tuition, the city OF Brownsville is a
part of the county and will be hon
ored and benefited by the presence
of the beautiful and costly building
now in course of construction. I'm
doubtedly the paving district should
be made to encircle the court house
block, and to include the streets by
which it becomes accessible from the
business center of the town.
The court house will be one Of the
things we shall show with pride to
the visiting investors. 1t would be
a pity to have the good effects of the
building counteracted by bad, ill
paved streets leading to it.
Just because the building will be
a county institution the farmers who
come to Brownsville will have much
business there. Let us prove that we
have some regard to their comfort
and convenience. If the paving dis
trict can be increased it should be
done. and it should undoubtedly be
done in the direction of the court
house.

FOR R CLOSING.

No move undertaken yet by the
courageous and public spirited ladies
of the Civic League is more deserY-
ing of commentator than that look
ing to the early closing Of business
houses in Brownsville during the
summer months. The ladies have IN
terviewed most Of the merchants or
the city and, with the exception OF
only two or three, the latter have ex-
pressed their willingness to close at
seven every evening, provided the
other stores will close also. The
ladies should persevere in this good
work until theys finally succeed IN
inducing all Of the merchants 10
close by seven o'clock.
When we think of the poor, tired
clerks, who are on their feet all day
long these hot, Sitting days, having
to remain on duty until nine or ten
O'Clock at night, it does seem as II
both the merchants and their Gus
toners should see the justice of the
ladies request.
Early closing is the rule in almost
every city and town in the United
States, that is of any Importance. In
most places the stores are closed
promptly al six o'clock. and the
clerks are released while there is
still a bit of daylight.
To keep the stores open at night
gives the town a most n~on-progres-
sive appearance and makes the mer-
chants appear in a very bad light.
Let the citizens get together on
this proposition and persuade all the
merchants to agree to begin early
closing.

Dear Sir:
In behalf Of the Real Estate
Exchange and the Jobbers and
Manufacturers League of the

Antonio, We desire to express to
you our appreciation aud thanks
foHthe valuable services and
eocStesies which you extended
to us on our recent visit to the

Shall the Fly Live
(COmmunica ed. }

BOYS and girls-June is almost
here. 1t is a question of the survival
Of the f%ittiest, you or the fly. The
bright verses, Witty quotations, long
appeals-even the sordid dollars
and cents have failed to appeal to
you.
In no other place has there ever
been such a lack of interest and at
titude toward the slaughter Of flies.
San Antonio's first prize last sum-
mer was $40. Brownsville's so far
is $3.50 and may soar higher with
one or two donations in view.
Is it the rich Rio Grande spirit
that with&olds you? It's not TOO
late to enter-no one is ahead of
you. In fact, as is customary in
every contest, if no interest is mani
tested this Saturday, when report
ing times comes, the generous ladies
of the Civic League state they will be
forced to withdraw their offer. Flies
aren't worth $40 a quart-at least,
the ladies are not able to pay that.
Filth eliminated, sickness and
death avoided with the destruction
Of a quart Of flies makes them cheap
at $1,000 a quart, but the ladies
can't pay that.
In most places, where boys and
girls long for a bicycle, pony, vic
trola or some such luxury, $3.50 for
a very small effort seems big.
Why don't five Of you form a club
and win that prize? 1t will start
you a nice tennis COURT will big
"a lot of clothes for the sewing cir
Gle, it will supply several boys with
base ball outits-$16.15 will do lots
Of nice things.
Then think Of the good you are
doing. Have you thought that you
can save at least one little baby's
life? You can, and perhaps a dozen,
for flies kill people every day.
When you see that white hearse
bearing some little child to the Gene
terry, four times out Of five the filthy
fly has caused that death,
Begin June in earnest-save some
baby's life. Perhaps your own little
sisters or brothers.
Save that prize from withdrawal.
All who are going to work for that
money, ring the Herald, please. and
say to keep the prizes there and
awaken interest SO the prizes can be
increased.
You have a short month to work
in-start today.
