stand in their own light and re
tard the progress of the Brownsville
section is a question now agitating
the minds of those who want to
see this country developed. It is
no to the laud owuers; they hold
the key to the situation. Will they
turn the key in the right direction
and bid the homeseeker come in
and aid the work of development
the wav to advancement? Every
tract of land sold and developed
enhances the value of every other
tract and it does not require an
extra good head for business to
see the advantages of at least put-
ting a portion of the lands in this
vicinity on the market. Again we
say to the land-owners: Gentlemen
it is now up to 'you!
Speaking of the anti-foreign
sentiment which is reported to pre-
vail in Mexico the San Antonio
Express says editorially: "The
rumors of an anti-foreign agitation
in Mexico seem to have emanated
from a few disgruntled enemies of
the Government of that country
whose fearsome bluster has been
magnified by the timid. The Mex-
ican authorities have demonstrated
clearly their ability to preserve or
der and protect property and there
is no doubt that the sentiment and
the good sense of the Mexican peo
pie will not tolerate any 'Boxer
ism.' "
RussEix Sage known as the
Nestor of Finance died in New
York last Sunday at the advauc-
ed age of 90 years. He had a most
remarkable career and his long
lease of life proves that the pos
session of money does not neces
sarily shorten life.
Yes Mary Jane the land in
Texas is all good but the nearer
you get to Brownsville the better
it is. Come down and be with us.
Who Arc "Promoters?"
If we trace the origin of the term
''promoter" we shall find that it
has a beneficent purpose that of
talent applied to supplying the
knowledge the industry the in-
telligently directed energy and if
you will the skill and resource
fulness in combining the unrelated
and to each other heretofore fre-
quently unknown elements that
combined produce results other-
wise unattainable. The proper
function of a promoter as of a
trust is legitimate and altogether
commendable. He performs a real
service and like all who do that for
society is entitled to and can com-
mand compensation commensurate
therewith.
If none but those who are openly
known and generally regarded as
promoters were actually engaged
in promoting the fraternity would
be more numerous their achieve
ments more conspicuous and in
the public mind the rewards much
greater although the compensa
tion of promoters would not have
been increased paradoxical as that
may seem. It promoting had been
coufined to those who have openly
and frankly adopted the vocation
as a business then it would long
ere this have become dignified into
a profession. But the fact is that
the most successful promoters
those whose rewards have not
merely been handsome but prince
ly have not been regarded as
promoters at all. They have pre-
ferred to call themselves lawyers
merchants manufacturers bankers
aye even statesmen anu diplomat
ists. These have been the leading
promoters; these have garnered
its largest rewards; but they have
evaded its odium. Yet even the
most cursory thought must show
that to the extent these gentlemen
have exploited the promoting field.
thev have not been lawyers mer
chants manufacturers.
' bankers
statesmen or diplomatists.
Whoever devotes his talents in
the promotion of new enterprises
thus bringing together he who has
an invention to a orocess. or he
wlm wishes to start a factorv or a
store with those who have capital
to invest or whoever secures ad
ditional capital for the extension of
existing enterprises is performing
a real service a service as benefi
cial and genuine as that performed
by the merchant manufacturer
ship-owner or banker. It would
however be of distinct advantage
if all acts of promotion should be
so classed and not as banking.
merchandising manufacturing .or
as the practice of the law. Hon
Robert Baker in Moody's Magazine
for July.
Would You Be Different
In his article on "Discontent of
the Sexes" Mark Lemon states
that he sent out forty copies of the
following request:
"Have there been times jvhen
for pleasure or profit you have
wished you were of the opposite
sex? If so will you kindly jot
down a few particulars and mail the
same to me at your earliest con
venience?
The expression received of the
sentiments of the ten men and wo-
men are briefly summarized:
Two would not be men neither
now nor in a state of incarnation.
One would be a man if she could
dress in collar and ruffles as men
dressed in former times.
One would like to me a man to
.. come aud go as she pleased.
One loves horses so well she
would like to be a man "at times'
so she could be a jockey.
One wouid like to be a man so
that she could get twice the salary
for the same work.
One would like to be a mau for
awhile because she would have so
much to be thankful for when she
got back to her own sex
One wishes to be a man . so she
could fix her auto when it breaks
down on the road.
One would like to be a mau to
treat the employed of her sex as a
gentleman should.
As the reader must have observed
the sex discontent seems all on one
side. It is that women as a gen-
eral rule are satisfied with their
own sex while men are not?
No" writes a woman to whom
the question was put ' when we
women wish ourselves men we
have present in our minds a purely
ideal type of manhood-' Indeed
we do not envy your sex at all.
but merely the larger liberties and
greater strength that accompany
your sex which if we had we
would use better to accomplish our
finer and purely feminine ends.
We wish to be men only to be'
more abundantly feminine. Mas-
culinity to us women is merely
another name for opportunity."
The Texas Woman.

Question of Accommodation
Spn.itnr Hoar used to tell the
story of an incident he witnessed
on a Boston street car. It.was
about 11 o'clock p- m. the mystic
hour when all law-abiding Boston-
ians lose their thirsts. The Sen-
ator haoDened to notice a man run
ning after the car and vainly trying
to attract the conductor's attention
The Senator notified theT:onductor
who stoDned the car. The belated
passenger who was somewhat un
der the influence of liquor had no
sooner-climbed aboard than he de-
Hvered himself of the following re-
marks Suay &u. uuu

the passengers or the passengers
run to 'commodate the road?"
