TIVE new industries are promised

TIVE new industries are promised
Brownsville some time in the
near future by the Brownsville
Chamber Of Commerce. q. G. Rich
ardson, secretary, claims arrange
ments for these industries are Tar
enough advanced to warrant their
announcement.
Next to work starting on the port,
the coming Of plants which would
add as many as 100 employees TO the
payroll of this city, constitutes the
best news that can be gathered for
the business interests Of the city.
Our step is to materlaliZe
them. Lately there has been re-
ported to The Herald and other
newspapers Of the Valley projects,
which if they materialize, would be
great things, but this writer now has
one or two in mind. which at present
! seem decidedly On the blink. This
! hurts. The newspapers received the
announcements in the good faith
they we're seemingly given drom
sources other than the chamber Of
commerce. when il was later found
their coming depended upon stock
selling schemes.
No industry can truthfully be an
rounced as coming when its OPEN
ing depends upon the sale Of stock.
A BIG PAYROLL. preferably Of
" the tin bucket kind. is one Of
A. -~oa.Arf tEsnnc that nan
happen to Brownsville, or any other
Valley town for that matter. 1t will
bring a weekly expenditure up and
down the main thoroughfares. which
will make the difference between
good times and prosperous times.
More factories is the CRY most
often made TO the chamber Of COM
merce and one Of the hardest orders
to fill. The reason. as has been
here said before, is because indus
tries are usually home grown and
are not removed from one city to
another.
But with the coming of the port
Brownsville will have something TO
offer which will move TO this city
many concerns. which otherwise
would not consider II at all.
FUDGE William S. West, Rotarily
known as Bill. is all hot and
bothered over newspaper reports
that none has yet reported a tur-
Key killed since the season.
Judge West has bagged his COB
bier and SO declares. Judging from
the few that have reported this feat,
} his picture should be run..
IL $50
FAITH in w. G. Schnurbusch. To-
cal weather ~forecaster. was no
little augmented yesterday.
About $50 a. m. he passed out his
predictions for the next "a hours
including the arrival of a norther.
with probably rain accompanying
it. Machinery breaking down
brought The Herald off the press
after the cool wave had started
moving in. and not one line had to
be changed 10 conform 10 what
was happening.
IN keeping with the trend Of things
today to open up work and give
the unemployed jobs. the city is
doing a bit Of street and other i'm
provement work.
So far as possible work that the
CITY has in mind. from digging
bitches 10 construction of the new
filtration plant. should be opened
and men hired. The home folks
should be employed first and the
married men given first considera-
zion throughout.

n S. SLAUGHTER. big insurance
II, chief Of Dallas. TeXas-such
people We believe are now some
TIRES referred to as Tycoons-was a
visitor TO Brownsville Yesterday.
He is promising 70 increase the
Valley investments Of his company.
and TO arrange for some farm loans.
Now We are going 10 tell Won some
thinr else that we cannot tell you.
Mr.. Slaughter has in mind a pretty
big step in the Valley in 1881. But

tnsider any correspondence con-
trring it.

Garth can be deduced from his con-
versation.
II goes like this: Texas is the best
state in the United States. the
United States is the best place in
ire world. And the Valley is the
best place in Texas.
Valley people voting by the usual
sign show that the ayes have it. !
