TAMMANY TODAY.
FIGHTS BITTERLY.

in Political Catfght

NEW YORK, Sept. 14.-Whether
William Randolph Hearst, Hyian's pol
itleal godfather, shall run city hall for
the next four years or whether the
running shall done by Al Smith thru
Jimmy Walker will be decided at to-
morrow's primaries after the most
bitter battle ever waged In the metro
polls.
That the fight is family affair"
adds to the bitterness. Hylan is a
Tammany man, but has wandered far
from the Wigwam since former boss
Charles Murphy helped to lift him
from an obscure judicial bench and
put him In the way of becoming a
national figure and a commuter be-
tween the Battery and Palm Beach.
Tammany's Tricks
Senator Jimmy" Walker is Tam
many's candidate and Tammany is
another name for AL Smith. Tammany
has a powerful organization and un-
less all signs fail, Hylan will bite the
dust in the primaries. There is some
thing paternal about Tammany which
counts heavily on election day. 1t
opens Jail gates, appeases greedy land
lords at times, slaps the meanest de-
mocrat on the back, and in many ways
fastens its gelatinous fingers on the
political affections of New York City's
794,652 enrolled democratic voters, ex-
cepting those who know that it pays
better to make little, but not too
much trouble for the machine at
times, than to be chronically loyal.
Five Cent Politician
Hylan is a f1ve cent politician, but
those who ride in Gotham's subways
and receive their osteopathic treat
ment while rushing up and down thru
the subterranean passages of Manhat-
tan island, as guests of the traction
barons. lend a willing ear to the pol
itical tune played on Hylan's nickleo-
deon. Passengers, get massaged too
much, and tho an alcohol rub is said
to be good for the skin, the odor of
second hand moonshine is not so
pleasant when waited to the nostrils
from some strange pair OF lips, forced
into disagreeable proximity by the
desire Of the aforesaid barons to make
a little profit out of the transportation
business, since Hylan will not lei
them raise the ante so that they can
purchase enough space to let each
passenger enjoy his own smells, what.
/ ever they may be.
To put the issue in plain language
Hylan will stand or fall on the five
cent fare and his opposition to the
interests" Tammany will win with
the aid of its precint, ward and dis
trict captains, friendly cops, gangsters
bootleggers and the labor takers, who
failed to get on Hylan's payroll. Hylan
will have the support of some OF the
capitalists. Tammany will have the
support Of the bigger ones and Water,

For amalgamation of the existing

$4,000 IN HOMES
At FREDERICKSBURG

FREDERICKSBURG, Aug. 20
Home building in this quaint little
city Of the Hill Country will reach a
new August record with the compile
ton of approximately $4,000 in resi-
dences now under construction. Local
contractors are nearing completion OF
six homes at an average cost of $4,000
each.
Albert Koennecke, cashier Of the
Bank of Fredericksburg, is having a
modern seven-room bungalow erected
at a cost in excess of $4,000. Others
who are having modern homes built
Felix Saenger, Gustav Kuhlman, Will
lie Nagel, Theodore Knopp and Mrs
Charles Priess.
The shortage Of rent houses in Fred
ericksburg is causing concern at the
present time and it is likely number
of business men will get together on
a program of building. Every indica-
ton is that the city will double in pop
ulation before the next government
census is taken. And it is a constant
growth with no inflated values in any
line,

on the lots to other locations and
erect a beautiful new home on the
site. The present home of Mrs. Nc

probably be RACED and used in the
new home.
X. s. McWilliams, local agent for
the American Express company will
build a neat cottage home on Reuss
Boulevard according to his announce
ment made public.
The magnificent new home Of G. q.
Breeder, admittedly one of the finest
in Cuero, is nearing completion as
is also a splendid home for Judge
George ]. Schleicher, just across the
street from the Breeder home.

block site was completed in sixty
days by contractors and is being oc-
cupied by A. P. Hilbrich and family

one, because any great change brings
emergencies which cannot be forescen
but which have to be met surely
and promptly. Two young people join
forces, and Immediately enter upon
gigantic changes in life and living, as
compared with their previous exper-
fences in the shelter Of the parental
home. Mostly they have to accustom
themselves to an entirely new sense
of valuations--and the things which
seemed so simple in the smoothly run
ming homes from which they have
come, take on an entirely different
aspect when they become a matter OF
individual responsibility.
PAY IMMEDIATELY
Too, with the married state, come
entirely different physical experiences
both for the young man and the young
woman. These new experiences fire.
auently mean doctors bills-and doc
tors bills are a thousand per cent
easier to pay Immediately they are
due than if one worries along with
them for months afterward.
Aside from the cost of establish.
in: the first nest-and there is real
and definite cost to its establishment,
even though the start be made in
furnished house or apartment-there
is the necessity of preparing a reserve
fund to care for the investment in
parcnthood. Having children is not
only a most natural but also very
desirable thing. Children are much
more welcome, when they come, il
plans have been made to defray the
cost of their arrival, and the money is
right at hand to pay those costs.
