BROWNSVILLE has been desig-

cific coast. What the final condi-
tions for such an event will be
could not Be told from the telegram
received at the Brownsville Cham
Der OF Commerce yesterday. but II
the stunt comes within reason II
will put this city very much IN the
limelight during that period.
The world is fast turning airmind-
ed. Air development and air feats
are watched with great interest.
Witness the recent endurance con-
test in Chicago. The whole United
States now knows the Hunter
brothers.

"a the men she knows claim TO be
airminded when they are only
vacuum minded.

Harlingen Texas
July II, 1880.
Editor Brownsville Herald:
VXTE noticed that j. B. Chambers
wv had neglected to appear when
- the Harlingen Chamber Of Com
merce called on him for an account
ing of the expenditure Of the funds
of the Arroyo Navigation District.
Now isn't that naughty? Since the
#Chamber OF Commerce has been SO
%enerous as TO offer TO loan S5OO.O0O
Of another company's money 70 the
government. I suppose II feels duty
bound TO keep tab on II.
We wonder Just when they came
into possession OF the funds Of the
ARROYO Navigation Distslct. We
would like to ask If It IS really any
Of their business what MI. Chambers
has done? May we ask who created
the Arroyo Navigation District AS
we understand il that was created
by the taxpayers and is being sus-
tanned by those vsho PAY their
taxes. and hence belongs to them.
II is possible that the Harlingen
Chamber OF Commerce directorate
will call Henry Ford on the carpet
within the next twelve months.
Here is for fishing, bathing, and
Measure boating from the S. P. Ry.
bridge down the Arroyo 70 Paore
Signed

nER. Moody. Just a minute please.
IFa WHY the hurry? We are for
AVA boating and bathing and fishing
on the arroyo, too.
we are not particularly concern
ed WITT whether Mr.. Chambers sees
fit to appear before the Harrington
Chamber OF Commerce, except as a
matter Of news.
But somehow or other We do be-
lieve remembering something about
his wiring from Washington that
brownsville and Point Isabel would
not get their d~eep-water ports. And
sure enough they did.
Ut IS i belief that some day. and
that not. SO far off. Brownsville
. will be q great industrial and
commercial center. That every
town in the Valley Will share in the
increased prosperity. That Harlin-
oHn will have a channel connection
- the Brownsville port, and that
IN will be made a thing OF beauty,
which will be almost If not as val
liable for pleasure as for business.
Fine days Ike this we feel that
everybody feels good and prosper
Gus or that they should teel SO.
