AMERICAS PRIDE LAID
LOW IN ASHES AND
RUINS
Dispatches from Chicago of Jftii
imry 8 bring tho dreadful news of
the burning of tho worlds fair
Grand bb was this American mas-
terpiece in tho heighth of its glory
yet in its awfn destruction it fai
exceeded itB former grandeur A
great fire is always a spectacle ot
beauty and tn this instance when
Americas prido was laid low in
ashes and blackened ruine it 6eems
the fire fiend surpassed himself as
if gloating in the power which
gives him such ascendancy over
in n Probably no more magni-
ficent jet terrifying spectacle has
ever been witnessed on this side of
the Atlantic says the dispatch
The loss is estimated at over 1
000000 The building themselves
were worth comparatively little
but many of the most equisite pro-
ductions of both home and for-
eign arts were destroyed the real
value of which can never be re-
stored in coin It ia for the loss of
theEO foreign exhibits that the man
agement should most reproach it-
self and for which the nation
should grieve exceedingly We
invited our foreign friends to bring
their rarest treasures to our world
fi r and they brought them con-
fidently trusting them to the keep-
ing of this confident young repub-
lic only to havo thtm sacrificed
by the fhmee through our negli-
gence The nation may well hang
its be id in shatno for this awfm
disaster America has boasted in
vain glory of tiro greatest fair the
world has ever eeerr but ber boast-
ing is ended now in dismay Truly
have we proven that pride goetl
beforo a fall

much sounder than his silver view
lately given to the public through
theTSxpresp If Matlock and Bak-
er are as good democrats as they
think they are Mr Irelands ad-
vice will not fall on heedless ears
Ko democrat will allow himself tn
be a stumbling block in the way of
the party
San Aktonio Express Since
the bonus for that Corpus BrownE
ille railroad wag raised South-
west Texas appears to have sud
denly awakened to the necessity ol
transportation facilities and every-
body is talking railroad There
is no immediate danger of build-

The capital moving cranks is on

Obrero which is not only a splenuid
little paper > bat is also endued
with too high a sense ct jonrnalis
tic fairness and honesty to use ori-
ginal matter from other papers
without giving credit for the same
However we wish to state that
The UBkald has none but the
kindliest feelings for all of its local
contemporaries and the little re-
mark regarding thore articles was
not intended to offend as we sup-
pose the credit was omitted acci
accidentally
And while on this subject we
mast say that although The Her-
ald receives quite a number of
Spanish papers from various places
jet so far as our limited knowledge
ot the language permits us to judge
fow of them equal in excellence
ind variety of matter those whtch
are published in Brownsville We
congratulate our Spanish reading
frieuds upon having such excellent
local papers
Thb Heeald is in receipt of a
copy of The Strike at Shanes

published by the Same socicljrind
which did so much good for the
caure of prevention of cruelty to
animals The Strike at ShanoV
is pronounced by many authorities
o be en exceedingly interesting
story It can be obtained by send

story about tfie probable proceed-

t e in the highest degree absurd
The democrats laugh at it and the
