THIS PAPER;
Monday, January 25. 1886,
: ski a
The Dallas City < ouneil has passed an
ordinance against variety theatres with
‘•lady” waiters.
Ths: Blanco Star-Vindicator advocatea
Lieutenant Governor I. .1. Storey, of
Lockhart, as a man eminently tilted to
be Governor of Texas.
Tue “most unkindest cut of all ' to the
Democratic heart is the suggestion to
run Mr. Cleveland as the Republican
nominee for President in
The Lioiti has as yet no candidate for
Governor, but it is willing to het Its old
papers that no member of the Land
Board will be the next Governor.
Tub Dalias limes doubts whether
Dallas will be able to raise the amount
required by the Gulf, Colorado and Santa
Fe. as a bonus to build eastward of that
city.
Ose of the improvements of the pres
ent city administration was to buy an
expensive steam street roller, which
with its engineer is much like keeping
ahorse without using it. being all ex
pense and no profit.
The Pleasanton Monitor very truly
says: “When San Antonio gets her
mammoth opera house completed, she
will draw the theatre-goer from many
surrounding towns, for then first-class
artists will visit that metropolitan burg."
The evangelist. Moody will visit
Texas the latter part of next month,
but he has not yet determined whether
he will visit San Antonio or not. He
can rest assured that he will be given
respectful attention, in case he does
come. San Antonie is not quite so bad
as Dixie Williams said.
The Houston Post says: ■•The Sax
Antonio Evening Light, one of the very
best afternoon papers in the State, be
gan its sixth volume on the 20th instant.
The Post congratulates the Light on its
most eminent success, and congratu
lates the people of San Antonio on hav
ing so excellent a newspaper."
The talk about sewers and proper
sanitation is simply a waste of words,
so long as the city does not own the
water-works. It is bad enough to have
to pay tribute to the Brackenridge mon
opoly on water alone, but to add the
sewer tax would indeed be adding bur
den upon burden upon the people.
The Monterey Revista understands
that in consequence of President Cleve
land's message on the silver question
that Mexican dollars have depreciated
3 cents. It therefore pertinently re
marks that with due respect it would
see the American President chawed up
before he should again speak on the sub
ject.
San Antonio is one of the largest
horse markets in the country, and the
business is almost in its infancy. But
in this connection it is a matter of con
gratulation to know that a number of
representatives of large northern and
western firms will make this city their
headquarters for future operations in
that line.
The Waco Examiner referring to the
purchase of the White Elephant and
turning it into a dry goods store, asks
whether it is the mark of decay or not.
In the opinion of the Examiner the
turning of saloons into dry goods stores
maybe the sign of decay, but it is the
kind of decay that the best citizens of
San Antonio hail with pleasure.
Dr. Socdper, of the Madison Square
Presbyterian Chuich, preached a very
eloquent sermon upon the subject of the
observance of the Sabbath yesterday, in
which he took the grounds that there
was no prosperity for a people who made
a practice of disregarding the seventh
day. But he did not demand that the
day should be spent in a puritanical
manner, but as a day of rest, with the
proper observance of Sunday, ns befitted
consistent Christians.

( haki.i •- A. Dana, of the New York
Sun, remarked the other day that lie be
longs to no society, club, or organiza
tion of any kind whatever, except the
X- .v England Society of New ork,
whicli he considers more as an annual
alum, r than n organization. "It has
been my conviction." lie said, “that the
editor of a newspaper should be entirely
free from every association of such a
character, in order to retain the greatest
freedom of action and critical judgment
upon passing events."
si vi,i\ ot the wild taikofl hiesgo
-o I: lists, the • h veland Leader says:
The honest workingmen if Chicago
repudiate the utterances of the Social
ite. That Is right Ilie miserable
crank- s hl be ostracised in every
commimits. ami it would be much bet
t-riitiny nmld be sent to Jail fortheir
ineendinn utterances." <ln the same
subject th Inter-Ocean observes:
■th apo -m ialist- orators think that
• etipitaiist.i are the cause of men sleep
ing in the tunnels, goods boxes, and
empty cars." If whisky barrels anil
empty bottles could give evidence they
would tell a more truthful and instruc
tive story."
The Laredo Times says; “Contrary
to all expectation the late blizzard did*
not prove near so destructive to cattle
or sheep as was predicted. While Hie
blizzard was at its worst some sheep
men shuddered at the thought of losing
at least a fourth of their Hocks: but sub
sequent investigation lias proven the
fears to be groundless, as the losses are
inconsiderable. The fact is that owing
to the rains of the autumn the range
was never better, and stock of all kinds
entered upon the winter fat. A fat
animal can stand the cold; it is tin poor
ones that hump up behind the walls
with Ilie Fort Worth policemen.”
Ihi New York Tribune says: “Ths
sudden death of the oldest daughter of
the Secretary of State willawaken much
vmpathy for her sorrowful parents
throughout the I nion. The American
people are sharp upon each other in
matter- of political opinion and policy,
but they are quickly touched with a
neighbor's misfortune or Milliction. Th«
circumstances of Miss Bayard’s death
are peculiarly sad and will add to the
grief ot her own and her family's friends.
Miss Bayard was a great favorite in
Washington society, and her gracious
presence will be much missed."
Tut-: niceties of the law are beautifully
illustrated in the application of Cliff
Cook for a new trial. He shot a man
down without provocation, and when
the jury generously sentenced him to the
penitentiary for life, he asks for a new
trial on the ground that his victim was
killed without malice. It is a little diffi
cult to sec why the murder was any less
a crime, because the malice and premed
itation was only of a few moments
growth instead of a larger period. A
little more of the old Mosaic law of “an
eye for an eye,' etc., in the sentencing of
criminals would purify society much bet
ter .than tlie legal hairsplitting techni
calities which are resorted to now-a
daye.
“Tui: statement of Earl Carnavon.
Lord Lieutenant of Ireland.” says the
Washington Critic, “presents a very
gloomy outlook for the poorer people ot
that country. He declares that Parlia
ment will do nothing to relieve the
dreadful distress, and that all be can do
for the starving people is to use the lim
ited means at his disposal for sending
the unfortunate to the workhonses,
which are already much overcrowded.
He hopes for private contributions,
however. It would not be a bad idea to
divert some of the money subscribed for
the relief of Ireland politically to feed
ing those of her people who are starving
physically. The fund for political relief
is a very plethoric one and would not be
seriously diminished by cutting off a
generous slice te drive away the wolf
that is prowling so near the humble cot
tages of the peasantry.”
"lx i acting about for new schemes
which will belter the condition of wage
workers," says the Waco Day, “it would
be well to consider the great benefits
which would be derived from the estab
lishment of savings banks under the su
pervision of the Postoffice Department.
What we need is a system which will
induce laboring people to save money.
We complain of meager salaries, but al
most every man who has constant em
ployment earns a little more than is
needed to keep him and his dependents
in comfort. A hundred years ago when
the people complained ot high taxes, old
Ben Franklin told them that they taxed
themselves twice as much by their idle
ness, three times as much by their
pride, and tenfold more by their vices.
The same is true to-day, especially in
the south. We must revise our econ
omy, and above all not despise small
savings. In Massachusetts, the people
have learned this lesson long ago, and
to-day they have accumulations boarded
amounting to $275,000,000, drawing 3}
per cent, interest, in savings banks es
tablished for small earnings of wage
workers exclusively. Hard times and
depression seem to have no effect on
these accumulations, as the deposits
show a steady increase year by year, and
the Massachusetts working people will
soon be the most prosperous in the coun
try, notwithstanding the “starvation
wages" which prevail among them.”

The Whco Examiner says that Hous
ton was a city when San Antonio was
nothing but an abscure Mexican mission.
San Antonio was the principal city of
the .Southwest and was known the wide
world over before the site of Houston
had other inhabitants than the alligators
and snakes of Buffalo bayou.
A Light Washington correspondent of
a recent date, writes: “The opinion
that this will be a lively session of Con
gress. despite the fact that it opened
tamely, prevails among public men of
all shades of political opinion. The in
coming of a Democratic administration
after nearly a quarter of a century's ex
clusion from executive power, with the
changes it naturally brings in the pub
lic offices, and in the policy of govern
ment generally, is cited as reason enough
to expect animated proceedings in Con
gress. As the Republicans retain con
trol of the Senate tb»t body is looked to
to protect and promote tbe political In
terests of that party. Some of tbe
brightest men and ablest leaders of the
Republican party are in the Senate, and
it goes without saying that they will
keep a vigilent eye upon their party's
interests. * * * Those who are anx
iously inquiring why American ship
building has fallen away may study
witli advantage the statistics of the
same Im utry in Great Britain. If there
is a country where this branch should
Hum ish it is in England. But the figures
are almost appalling. In 1883 shipping
to the extent of 1,250,000 tons was
launched; and in 1884 this total fell to
540.0H0 tons, and from that again in 1885
to 510,000 tons. Nor is this all. For it
will be found, on further examination,
that so anxious were the yards to secure
contracts that what work was done gave
little or no profit.”

George H. Kalteyer
CHEMIST,
SAN ANTONIO, - - TEXAS
San Antonio, Tex., Julv 1. Ibtt.
I purchased in this city a package of Prof.
Horsford's Self-Raising Breal Preparation
and submitted it to a chemical examination,
and find that the same is composed of pure
and non-poisonous chemicals.
The idea of Prof. Horsford was indeed a
grand one in supplanting tbe indigestible tar
tarate of soda, which is always the end result
of ail Baking Powders composed of Cream of
Tartar and Soda, by the soluble phosphate of
lime and soda, the very nutritive value of
bread, and tlie bone-producing elements of
nature.
It is certainly the best and most healthy
bread-raising pref Miration ever offered to the
public, and every mother that has the health
of her children at heart should use no other.
1 can only Join in the endorsement given by
the late celebrated chemist. Prof. Baron V.
Liebig, to this preparation in saying: ”1 con

gifts which science has made tomankind.''
