“Ir the change is made as propos-
ed, you will see that before the
building is completed, we will be
compelled to issue more bonds to
pay for it”.—Mayor Lowy to the
city council on the opera house ex-
tension.
full text of Mayor Lewy’a veto of
the increase in size and cost of the
market and opera bouse, which
was presented to the council last
February. Itreadslike a proph-
ecy. Here it is:
To The Hon. Board of Aldermen
of Temple.
Gentlemen: I beg herewith to
return the resolution adopted by
you on the 26th day of Feb.. 1887,
in which you increased the cost of
the market hall and opera house
#28,000 with my objection thereto.
I invite your attenton to the se-
rious danger to be apprehended
from this course, and suggert that
all the trouble aud danger of mu-
nicipalities erecting public build-
ings arises from innovations and
changes with its attendant in-
crease of cost. I am of the opin-
ion that the building as originally
designed and contracted for, is in
every respect amply sufficient for
all purposes for this city, and
when tho timo arrive, when an
increased population demands a
larger building, the large increase
of tho taxable values of real essate
will make the expense necessary
for an enlargement comparatively
easy. I invite your serious con-
sideration to tho examples of other
cities, where contracts for public
buildings have, under constant
changes, made, tho cost so heavy,
that the buildings yet remain un-
eompletely.
I deem it prudent and at all
times advisable when municipali-
ties erect buildings, to make no
change or alteration, but to follow
strictly the original contract, for
experience has demonstrated be-
yond a doubt, that every change
or alteration so made, is done at a
cost altogether out of proportion
of what it should cost, and but a
harvost for contractors, who profit
and invite alterations.
Again in my opinion $28000 is
entirely too much, for the change*
proposed to bo mado and this rate
gives the contractor a profit, which
in my opinion equals his profit on
the contract as originally made. I
can’t see why the city needs a larger
building at present, at such a sac-
rifice in the way of increased cost,
If this change is made as proposed
you will see that before the build-
ing is completed we will bo com
pelledto issue more bonds to pay
for it.
I would suggest, that t ie con-
tractor be held to the very lettor
aud spirit of lh ■ contract as origi-
nally made and that no changes be
mado at present.
Very respectfully sbmitted.
A. Lbwy,
Mayor.
The Temple Times remarks,
rather mournfully, too: It ap-
pears as though Booth and Barrett
were woing to give Temple the
go-by.’’ That is wha* they are
going to do, beloved—go right by
your town without a halt. But
they will stop’at Waco and you
can see them here. Como over
Monday, Bro. Cox, and tho Day’
will see to it that you see tho great
tragedians and hoar them too.—
Waco Day.
Thank you kindly Brother Day,
hut we can’t. It’s a busy time in
this office, and notwithstanding Mr
Gould generally suppliesoue thous-
and mile editorial passes, we must
forego the pleasure of seeing aud
hearing tho groat tragedians. A
pleasant time to you.

It is the endeavor of the publish-
er in the issuing of this work, to
present to the public, in convenient
form an annual, or almanac for the
vear 1888, and present with it an
honest and liberal account of Tem-
ple’s honorable past, a truthful rep-
resentation of her prosperous pres-
ent, and a glimpse of the glorious
possibilities awaiting her future
progress.
In this connection will also be
presented, in truthful terms: First,
the advantages of Temple as a point
for manufacturing enterprises, set-
ting forth such enterprises as will
paybest here, and the induceinen ts
offered for the same.
2. Th* area of Bell county, giv-
ing number of acres of land culti-
vated and uncultivated, the kind
of soil, how watered, bow timbered
its price per acre and terms,
3. Number of school houses ir
the county, and amount of money
expended for educational purposes.
With a showiug of the uuinber of
churches in the county, the de-
nominations represented and mem-
bership.
i. An accurate map of the city
of Temple prepared and printed
especially for this edition,and com-
pleted to Jany 1st, 1888.
5. Illustrasions of all the princi-
pal buildings of the city will be
published, including the opera
bouse, the New Central Hotel, the
Compress, the Santa Fe Round
House, Passenger Depot and all
other public and private buildings
of interest.
The theme is worthy of our best
efforts, which it shall have, and it
is hoped that this unpretentious
volume will prove of lasting value
to Temple in conveying informa-
tion to the outside world, and in-
duce good people come and cast
their lot among us, a point unequal-
ed for the founding of manufactur-
ing establishments and wholesale
houses, and is certain to become, in
the near future, a great city which
will be the pride, not only of Bell
county but of all Central Texas.
The expenses incident to such a
publication will be very heavy, and
it is urged that the citizens of Tem-
ple will lend their aid in carrying
out in enlarged form, the above
briefly outlined volume, which
must be acknowledged, wil re-
dound to the substantial interest
ot Temple.
