" hero Adverting cuulracu lua>' bo made tur it IMAL2IV IOKK, Saturday, February 20 1886. The Luling Signal has enlarged,which is a sign of improved times with Brother Bridges. Deep w ater on Aransas bar not only weans a harbor and a railroad leading to it, but means many roads and corres ponding prosperity for Western Texas. Ir I-a little strange that some think deep poverty sutlicient reason never again to give employment of any sort to one seeking it. Jr is a matter of fact that the Chinese are steadily and not very slowly increas ing in number in this city. “A stitch in time saves nineand a sign should be hung out—"No Chinese need apply,” on all empty houses. There have already been more cases of the small pox, and more deaths from it in Fort Worth than in San Antonio, yet a general panic has not been created as it was here. The scare this winter was the most senseless that ever oc curred in this city. The striking brakesmen on the east ern end of the Southern Pacific, have the sympathy of the public generally in the justness of their cause, and have the re spect of everybody for the orderly and dignified manner in which the strike is conducted. Public opinion seldom makes a mistakejn judging the right eousness of a contest between capital and labor. Since the grand jury failed to indict William Scott as being the alleged mur derer of his wife, Patty Scott, who was killed about three weeks ago, it de volves upon the officials of Bexar County to follow up any and all other clues that have been obtained regarding that mys terious crime. Public opinion was con tent with the arrest of Scott, but his release will serve to increase the'general uneasiness such murders occasion in the minds of all. In a letter to the editor of the Light, Hon. Joseph I). Sayers. Representative in Congress from the Tenth Texas District, among other things says: "I have every confidence that appropria tions will be made at this session for a court house and pes'ofllce building at San Antonio; also for the post, and for Aransas Pass. At any rate, I shall use every exertion to that end. The West ern portion of my District shall receive faithful attention from me.” The White Cross Society is a new or der founded in England and already spreading rapidly in this country. Its object is to protect the innocent and assist to save the fallen women, includ ing all the tendencies to the social vice, beginning at impure and indecent lan guage. Its members are composed of both men and women, who certainly have a wide field of labor and who de- serve the hearty support of every true friend of the human race. How long be fore a branch of the order of the White Cross will be established in San Antonio? One of the first acts of Mr. Garza Ga lan, the newly inaugurated Civil Gov ernor, of the State of Coahuila, Mexico, was to issue a decree reducing the ex traction duty from $3 50 to 25 cents a bead on all stock except sheep and goats. For this he will receive the unqualified thanks and gratitude of all ranchmen in the State, Mexicans as well as Ameri cans. Tne principal industry of the northern portion of the State is stock raising, and with an extraction duty of $3 50 a head, and an import duty of 20 per cent. In the United States, the bal ance left the ranchman was too little for profit. It was a direct tax on the indus try, as the only market for the stock was in this country. The imposing of the high extraction duty by General Cervantes, the retired Military Gover nor, was a high handed price of military despotism, that was very repugnant even to the Mexicans, and extremely so to the Americans engaged in ranching in that State as it was looked upon as personal oppression. The effect of the reduction of this duty will be to boom the ranch property in the Santa Rosa Mountains, and in a short time every available acre will be in the hands of American rancheros raising high grade cattle, sheep and horses, and the taxable property of that State increased to that extent. —The most popular cigarettes are the Opera Puffs at popular prices. 4-7-ly Spring time with its freshness, bloom and verdure, the joyous songs of birds, the reviving warmth of the sun, the hopes it Inspires, should renew cheerful energy and expand all goad and kindly feeling, leaving grudges to the cold past to be buried forever. I’KiSIDEXT Alderman Dai ly's action iu refusing to serve while there existed a doubt as to its legality will be applauded by the people, who will return him to his seat. That is the class of men badly needed in the Board of Aidermen—men who hold the city's Interests above their own. The strike of the brakemen on the Louisiana division of the Southern Pa cific Railroad is beginning to have its eflect in this, that no freight trains are running out of New Orleans, much to the Inconvenience of some interests '1 he men demand $65 a month and will enlist the entire Brotherhood of Railway Brakemen tn their behalf in order to ob tain what they claim is due them. The most prominent feature of the strike is the good feeling which exists between the men and the officials, pending the settlement. The present complication of Sena torial ambitions in Texas, says a Wash ington correspondent of the Atlanta Constitution, “render it quite possible that Representative Mills of that State may be elevated to a chair at the other end of the capito). Mr. Mills may be fairly classed among the most influen tial men in Congress. He holds extreme free trade views and is unalterably op posed to federalistic Ideas of govern ment. He is about 50 years old, six feet high, straight, well proportioned, and as vigorous in his physical as lie is in bis mental make up. History is his passion. His remarkable memory has treasured historical dates and events until in knowledge of the annals of our own and other countries few of his political peers can cope with him. He uses his knowl edge finely under the direction of a quick sense of application with the illuminating power of n fer tile fancy. Scholarly Congressmen from the West are rare; but rarer still are unsocial ones. Mr. Mills is solitary in his habits. He has a well-worn path from his rooms to the Capitol and never diverges from it unless it be to make oc casional visits to the Departments. Of social life he sees absolutely nothing ex cept what is afforded him in the charm ing circle about his own fireside. He lias never been out at night unaccom panied by his wife, unless there hap pened to be a night session of the House. He always commands the attention of the House because he always speaks speaks well and because lie enjoys the reputation of saying honestly just what bethinks. His oratory is better suited to Hie hustings than to the halls of Con gress, but it is vigorous and entertain ing always and not unfrequently it rises to eloquence.” EDITORIAL CLIPPINGS.

Sam Jones has announced that lie w ill noHie in New Orleans for several months yet. Sam has a duty to perform, and that is to tackle the lottery business. If he can induce the bouse servants to in vest their market money in beef-steak and not in lottery tickets, the world can not say he has lived in vain. Chicago Inter-Ocean. The wage-workers among women In New York, according to the reports of savings banks, save more money than men similarly situated. As they are paid a little more than half the wages received by men, the fact is greatly to the credit of women Their money does not drop into the till of the saloon, and that tells the whole story. Galveston News. The homestead law of Texas is at tacked in some of the [tapers, because it makes money hard to borrow. It ought to be bard to borrow on a real bona-fide homestead. The man who will specu late and lose bis homestead w hen be once has it safe from debt is a man who Is very likely to leave a family for the county to take cure of. Fort Worth Gazette. The Corsicana darky who traveled over Texas givingexhibitionsof disabil ity to eat glass, is now in a Philadelphia museum, amusing the citizens up there devouring lamp cnimneys, beer bottles, window panes, and other like articles. Slowly’ but surely the superiority of Texa- is producing products that' lay her sister States sadly in the shade, is beginning to dawn upon the mental vision of the effete Easterner. MEXICAN ITEMS. Oaxaca has in its Treasury $lll,- G 16.97; and all its pay rolls are covered. Two Californians have arrived in Ja lisco with the intention of purchasing a farm on which to raise sheep. Two journalists had a pistol duel near Popotla. The adversaries exchanged two shots and did not hurt each other. During the year 1885 the civil register in Vera Cruz showed up 241 marriages and 2099 births. The population is about 20,000. One Guadalajara man stabbed an other and then started to run. But a young" man going by horseback gave chase, lassooed the murderer and deliv ered him to the polite. The mail carrier between Iturbide and Allende was killed last week on his route. The murderers were after the mail, which they carried off. They did not take bis clotbing, pistol or money. A bull-fighter in Puebla last Sunday met bis death from a tore emlmlade, or hull with balls on his horns. This very seldom happens, and this part of the sport is generally indulged in by ama teurs. A good Samaritan tins gladdened many hearts in Pachuca. Mr. M. Brookman went to the Hidalgo Asylum a few days since and gave eacb inmate of that poor house a complete suit of stockings, shoes and hats, and to the indigent girls in the institution be gave clothes, etc. The mail from Iturbide to Queretaro is always carried by a carrier on foot. The mall due in Queretaro on the sth was delayed because the poor fellow froze one foot while going through the snow, and had to crawl to the nearest shelter. He sent the mall into Quere taro by some persons traveling that way. The famous bull fighter. Bernardo Ga vino, died at 2 o'clock on F riday afer noon, at me residence. Calle Tnrasquillo. His last surroundings were those of a poor man, and his room was a hovel, but still it is said he has willed to so e fa vorite relatives an immense fortune, accumulated during h's life of half a century in the bull ring. He was buried I In Dolores, yesterday. Thoinan Waited wna ng sirred nt the Windsor Hotel, El l’aso, a lew days since. He bad just eome in from the mines in which lie was engaged, and which are located about 20 miles from Montezuma, a station on the Mexican Central. He reported the country un commonly dull, and money scarce. The district is being developed by poor prospectors chiefly, and in consequence the mines have to be worked on an econ omical basis. He brought with him a car of ore, for the El Paso sampling works, which he thinks will pay him handsomely for his time and labor in extracting it.
