The evening light. [volume] (San Antonio, Tex.) 1881-1883, 1882-11-15

The Washington Critic says: Among the
"Amercan Colony" at Nice this winter one
of the reigning queens. will be Mrs. Harriet
Lane Johnson. She and her husband have ia
ken villa there on account of their son,
whose weak lungs and feeble frame they hope
to see renewed and strengthened. You can
always tell when you are near Nice from the
heavy odor of violets that perfume the air
They are grown by the acre there just as
wheat is grown in this country, for the Lubins
factories are near by, and the white rose, hell.
otrope and violets are raised in enormous
quantities for extracts.

AN ITEM FOR FARMERS.

1t is usual for farmers to take the grain from
the middle of the ear of corn for seed. Careful
experiment has demonstrated that the well

CORRUPT PRACTICES IN ELECIloNs

One of our recently elected legislators Is de-
termined to introduce law to reach bribery
and corruption during elections. His motives
are certainly commendable, but his success Is
doubtful from the fact that the policy OF the
democratic party seems to have been to re-
move every guard against illegal voting and
corrupt practices.
Our constitution prohibits registration OF
voters and the simple oath of a person offer
ing to vote entities him to cast his ballot in the
face of evidence of ineligibility.
In elections for congressman the general
government has provided for supervision, but
this is regarded as interference rather than
means of securing fair ballot.
Swearing seems to be the only preventa-
tive, while it furnishes cloak to fraud. The
oath to officers is framed to catch bribers but
it don't do it.
In the matter of eligibility something should
be done. Foreigners are allowed to vote upon
their intention papers," and it is fact that
in this county there are several hundred voters
who have been voting upon intention" pa
pers for ten and twenty years; it should be so
construed that after certain lapse of time the
failure to complete citizenship would work
forfeiture of the right to vote; and the foreign
er offering to vote should produce his citizen
papers. The judges Of election should be
furnished schedule of questions to put to
voters challenged.
The matter of bribery is more difficult, but
its penalties might be multiplied and perhaps
some reform Effected
In this county it is estimated that the cleo
ton for county officers costs candidates be-
tween $4,000 and $4,000 each election TO
control certain elements.
We believe the remedy is largely in the
hands of the people themselves. They should
combine to defeat every candidate or set of
candidates who resort to the use of money to
secure their election.

Still After the Associations.

Spccia! to the democrat.
Washington, November Io.-The postoffice
department is still looking into the affairs of
the marriage and birth insurance associations
of the south. Notice has been sent to the
Tennessee Nuptal association, Knoxville, to
show cause why it should not be deprived of
the use of the mails on the ground that it is a
fraudulent concern. An inspector is making
an investigation of these associations and his
report is expected soon. II would not be sur
prieing if his report resulted in an order refus-
ing the use of the mails to all these associa-
tons.

The 'tidal wave" as it swept over New

falling off of 36,S58, as compared with the

 Joyed 1t.
 The weather yesterday was warm, on this subject opinions were unanimous The dili- gent citizen perspired at his toll, whether in bank, shop, store, and mopped his | brow. The horse cars carried some few to 1 the shore, but yesterday was not the shore | day. and besides it was too hot to rush | around much. The horses that had heavy | loads to drag had wilted and wild-eyed look as they tugged along, especially when coming to an up grade. The busy house. keeper dusted off the shelves and postponed the baking or kept an eye open for the ice man or the ice cream peddler. The drug clerk stood with wearied face at the helm drawing soda water, and the cry was still they come. The ice cream machines ia the cellars were kept whirling for the customers up stairs, and the customers served at home seemed to be endeavoring to get up a corner on the delectable compound. Toward dusk, long after the chorus of steam whistles had sounded their announcement that it was six o'clock, the ice cream saloons were full of 1 muslin dresses, and lawn dresses, and seaside hats and attentive young lovers, whose stock of cash was being bravely and without a pang \ sacrificed at woman's shrine, and it was then also that the soda fountains fzzed and dzzed and the syrup bottles ran low, as the people drank and drank. And the town pump came in for a big share of patronage The handles were being con- ! tinually yanked and the thick tin cups .solid enough to stand the battering they get and yes hold water, but dilapidated enough, went
 back and forth continually to quench thirsty throats. It is now, of course, when people ' want cups the most that the wear and tear
 on cups is greatest, and it is good thing that the taxes are being collected, in the l course of year or two the city may be able to replace the cups with rew ones, especially those which have lost their handles in the struggle to keep up with peoples patronage. The signal service thermometer went up to l 85 in the shade in the afternoon. Other I thermometers about town went up higher, I and walking in the sun the thermometer seemed to be high enough for the mercury to creep out of the top of the tube. Anyway it was a tolerably hot July day and fly paper l was in demand.
