The San Antonio Literary and Debating

willing TO undertake the care of the old Ala

and to open it for public use. Yet those who
are responsible act in the dog in-the-manger
style aud will not use the library themselves
nor allow the public to do SO. 1t is contrary
to common sense or reasen that such valua-

The San Antonio Small Boys strike

1t is commonly supposed that the large
stones frequently seen on the city streets are
OF no other use than for damaging buggies,
and many are the anathemas they cause to fall
on the poor Street Commissioners head. But
even these distractions can be of little use
even IL they do much damage. This fact was
exemplhed by an amusing scene that occurred
on Crockett street on Saturday, when the run
away team OF country fruit dealer came
dashing down the street. Suddenly it came
to stand still, for one of the wheels struck
against large stone lying in the road, up
setting the wagon and scattering the fruit in
all directions. Much difficulty was ex-
perienced in gathering up the fragments that
remained, and considerable quantity dis
appeared into other channels. The LIGHT
would not impeach the San Antonio small
boys honesty, but it was a remarkable CO.
incident to find so many boys eating peach es
on Saturday night, when as rule they cannot
spare a nickle to buy them.

Look Upon This Picture of Prog ,ession and

Who shall say that San Antonio does not
progress Search the records of offenders
against the peace and dignity Of the city and
there will be found a marked increase.
Analize the criminal docket in the justices
courts, or the District court, and the same in
crease is noticeable. There are more demi-
mondes, more maisons du joi, more saloons,
more gambling resorts, and more prison sc-
commodations. These things, unsavory
though they may be, are the attributes of a
great city, and they surely show the prosper
ity of San Antonio, because where the prey is
there also will be the hawks and buzzards.
This is the dark side of city life. On the
other side pleasant picture is presented o.
increased intelligence, public spirit intensified
trade extended, of which the city is the com
mon centre, noble buildings erected and tn,
streets improved. San Antonio can show
more real progress within the past two year
than any other city in Texas, and is fitting her

HF Will RETURN AGAIN.

The Topeka Capital, in its comments
on the defeat of ST. John, and the cut
look for the future, has the following
very concise remarks
cit remains to be said furthermore
for this man St. John-aud we say it
without any intention or desire to ser
monize--that in his defeat and retire
ment he is still a figure that will not
vanish from the horizon. He goes, but
he will return again-not as candidate
perhaps, bat none the less as a certain
and potent force In Kansas politics His
strength with the people is Of vital and
pervasive kind, and though temporarily
Inundated, he is not overthrow. The
principle that he championed with all
his heart, and that we are told wsnt
down when he was beaten, is still abroad
aud powerful, and he is still true to the
faith and capable of great deal further
earnest AID stubborn fighting. You re
member the story of the Christian in
the wars Of the crusade, who, though
manned aud limping, held aloit his
crutch, and shouting, ~ grasp here
three-iourths of the cross of Christ, -
rallied the Christian thousands and beat
back the encroaching hOrdes Of iu6Jels
and Saracens. So may St. John wave
the sign Of his discontinue in the face
Of the enemy, and cry, Stand back, in-
fGels and Saracens clutch three
fourths of the cross which shall yet hold
fixed sway in Kansas" and when that
time comes. as it is sure to, for truth and
right are in the long run invincible, the
scroll OF those who have deserved well
ot-the State on account of steadfast and
persevcrlng devotion to duty will bear il
PLAN large letters the familiar name OF
John p. st, John.

THE LEAvENwoRTH TINES ON

THE LEAVENWORTH TIMES ON
THE AVERAGE LAW-MAKER.
The Times readers may sometimes
wonder why SO few members are heard
from during the session. The exDlana-
ton was made by a member to-day.
He said he neVel lifted his voice while
in session, but dad his work in caucus.
Inquiry revealed the fact that in caucus
that member is Just as mute as he Is at
any ether time, The true explanation
is that there are members sent from
some districts who are no more quail
fed for legslating for the people than
they would be for the important position
Of second cook on q raft They come
down here not as the choice of their
constituents, but have been. selected
simply to crush some ADLER and better
man, who might have been an honor to
his county. At home they are counted
honest mon here they consider them so,
but they accept So per day, not includ
ing postage stamps, dc nothing but hold
their chairs down and cat hotel food,
and never do thing in return for mon
ey they receive, unless it is to introduce
some bill that, were it to pass, would not
| mold water tor one moment when sub
jected t. constitutional scrutiny. These
men are equally as useless as those who
talk so much and say nothing, There
are both kinds here. They cannot be
counted upon your fingers either. Look
at them from the gallery and you can
pick out every one by soiumu owl-like
wisdom that makes his countenance so
gloomy. His head is full of thoughts
but they probably pertain to the num-
Der Of bushels Of corn lie will feed his
hogs, or to the number Of shingles he
VIII put on mis- Rew barn after the legis
allure adjourns, or to the probability of
his tuidiug his old clients during his
absence. No body is free from this
useless timber, perhaps so this session OF
the Kansas legislature is no exception
While there are many good men IN the
two branches, there are many, too many
useless ones, who could be Of more ben
eft to their neighbors If they wOulG
only stay at home and attend to dutie:
they are fitted for. Putting aside al
the fattory so common when newspaper;
write mp their state legislatures, truth
compelIs the statement that out Of lht
one hundred and sixty three members 0
the Kansas legislature at least twenty
could be picked out who never shOulC
be permitted to leave home without {:
guardian twenty more might be select
ed who have mistaken notions as to theil
fitness for the position they fill, and five
or six more might be added to the lis
of those who should have staid at homo
on general principles. The TINES cor
respondent does not mean to reflect upor
the present body, but simply scrapcs Of
the treacle he has, in common with 9th
ers, poured 50 copiously over those who
seek fame in legislative halls. 1t vii
do no harm to administer little trutl
once IN a while
