The Worlds Best Thoughts.

Some women cling to their own house
like the honey suckles over the door

subtle fragrance of their goodness.

it. Courage, diligence, cheerfulness,
faith-these are the traits which make
the successful man.
Oh. man! fear not thy affections,
and feel no dread lest time should
efaee them. There is neither to-day
nor yesterday in the powerful echoes
of memory; there is only always. He
who no longer feels has never felt.
There are two memories. the memory
of the senses, in which perishable
things decay; and the memory of the
soul, for which time does not exist,
and which lives over at the same instant
every moment Of its past and present
existence. Fear ye not who love.
Time has not power over hours, none
over the soul.
The little sentence-help one an
other-should be written over every
heart-stamped on every memory. 1t
should be the golden rule, practiced
not only in every household, but
throughout the world. By helping one
another, we not only remove the thorns
from the pathway and the anxiety from
the mind, but we feel a sense of pleas.

passed, the cry Of the public will be a
unit in its approval:
There is no reason to doubt that the
postal telegraph and the postal savings
bank will come In due course of time,
and when they come they will stay.
The argun ent in favor of these institu.
tons are cogent as they are numerous,
and when the people are ripe for them
they can have them. With respect to
the postal telegraph. the position taken
by Senator Edmunds Is unanswerable.
If 1t is proper for the government to
avail itself of the railway train, the
steamer and the ocean steamer in carry
ing the mails to all parts of the country,
why should 1t not take advantage OF the
telegraph line! If steam may be en-
ployed as an agency, why not eiec-
tricity!
Speed is one of the most essential
things in the transmission of the mails,
and since the great bulk ofthe business
Intercourse ofthe country can be con-
Quoted by telegraph, why should that
agent not be made subservient to the
purposes OF the Post-offce Department.
As the locomotive exceIs the horse in
swiftness, so the electric current out
strips the steam engine. In ENGRAVING
the telegraph upon the postal system,
there's no necessity for interfering with
private enterprise. These
may be left to take care of themselves.
just as were the express companies
when the Government undertook to
carry certain kinds Of merchandise as
mail matter. The proposition OF Sena-
tor Edmunds is that the Government
shall erect its own lines. first to the
principal centres of business and pop
ulation, and then gradually extend the
system all over the country. He will
introduce bill with this purpose in
view at the next session of Congress,
and there is not much question as to
It's passage. 1t will probably be op-
posed by the representatives of existing
ines. unless they can get an amendment,

The experience of many stockmen on the
Cherokee Strip has demonstrated the fact
that it pays to feed sufficient at least to keep
stock in good condition. And now that all
matters relating to the occupancy OF the
Strip have been satisfactorily settled, what
ever the weather may be next winter, the
majority of the stockmen on the Strip Will
make an effort to feed, if for no other pur-
pose than to keep their stock in good heart
during the hard season. Some will feed to
supply beef cattle for early spring demand,
and as all must buy at the nearest home
market, it is plain that the farmer on the
border who raises corn this year, and plenty
of it, will strike bonanza. Stock raising
and stock feeding must be the future policy
for this country, and it can only be made
20 by raising grain for home consumption
instead of for shipment.-Caldwell Com

TIKI CATTLE BAOOO9.
The exodus of young cattle from eastern
Kansas, Missouri, Iowa and Nebraska to
the west has grown into magnitude. Prices
of this stock has advanced in proportion to
the demand until calves and yearlings are
now selling at higher price in the sections
named than ever before. Many causes have
been assigned for this state of affairs. The
increased consumption of beef throughout
the world is one cause and the profits real
lied in the cattle business during the. past
half dozen yeare is another. Many men
engaged in the business but q few years since
With but Jew thousand dollars now retire
with ten, thirty OF fifty thousand dollars.
This rapid accumulation of wealth has
turned the attention Of the people to this
lucrati 7e industry. Another cause for this
exodus of cattle comes from the high prices
in Texas, the great breeding place for the
West. Texas cattle have advanced to with
in few dollars per head of domestic cattle,
and purchasers at the prices are beginning
to prefer the latter, even at few dollars pei
head more. The domestic is always accli'
mated while Texas are not.-Larned Chrcno'

KISSING IN THEATRES.

Theatrical managers seem to have a mis-
taken idea OF their own power and of the
privileges of their patrons. In New Orleans,
a day or so ago, after avery bad song was in
artistically rendered by the Baker 4 Farron
company, modest hiss was heard. "Then,"
says the New Orleans Ttmes-Democrat,
"bland and eager ushers at once rushed to
the front and young man by the name OF
Feiber was seized and ingnominiously hustled
to the calaboose." There was nothing to
show that Feiber was disorderly or that he
annoyed his neighbors, vet he was "hustled
to the calaboose." The election raises the
question whether it is misdemeanor to ex-
press disapprobation at a theatre. The writer
can understand the improperly of permitting
rowdies to disturb an audience and of permit
ting conspirators in the employ of rival man
ayers to cry down play, but he cannot under
stand why well-dressed, well-behaved man,
as the newspapers picture Feiber to be, should
be debarred from testifying his displeasure.
If an auditor has right to applaud he has a
right to hiss. The one may be as much in
accord with the feelings of the rest Of the
audience as the other. Opinions in concur
renee with this have been delivered by several
courts, and it were not surprising if Mr..
Feiber recovered damages from the over

Laredo Letter.

Special Correspondence of the Evening Light
LAREDO, January iS.-Last evening one OF
the girls of the period put head on one of
the white handle brigade, which has caused
40 little talk on the streets.
Bets are offered that the man that is on the
Ben Thompson jury, that never read news
paper, don't know that Sam Houston is dead
and is still voting for him for governor.
Hennessy's circus crossed into Mexico this
morning and will play in Laredo, Mexico, to-
night They will then pull up stakes and go
to the interior.
An American was found about eleven miles
from Laredo, Mexico, with his throat cut and
brought into town this moraing for burial.
A great deal Of talk is in regard to the i'm.
mediate erection of the I. & G.. N. bridge and
the progress of the road. A great many con-
tractors have more pleasing look than they
had few days ago. They now don't offer
their stock for sale; they would rather buy
than sell.
Laredo, Mexico, has more custom-house
brokers than anything else. Whenever an
American goes into Mexico he either gets into
the saloon. brokerage or sewing machine
business. Then he locks CONTEMPORARY at the
other Americans that come into Mexico and
