Miscellaneous.
To Ny Friends And Enemies,

For reasons best known to myself, have this
day discontinued the printing OF the Evening
Light for the Evening Light Printing and PUB
fishing Company, and herewith present to the
good people of San Antonio the first copy OF
the "SAN ANTONIO LIGHT" which appears
under the proprietorship of Clifford, johnson
g. Winter, and will be continued in its present
form and style until the new press and ma
terial, which has been ordered, arrives when 1t
will be enlarged to seven column paper, and
the new management will at all times endeavor
to make it the best and brightest local paper In
the city free from all personal bitterness and
old time grudRes, with an earnest endeavor to
merit whatever patronage and good will may
be extended to It by generous public.
Very Respectfully
A. W. CLIFFORD.

legal tender dollars was, like many other oil
its failures, very deplorable, but it seems to us
there is no excuse for going on with this fraud
Of turning upon the commercial world, some
thing over 90 cents worth of silver for dol
lar, Of which the Treasury now contains, be-
sides the enormous sum in circulation,
$500, oco, 900. The Secretary of the Treasury is
performing questionable duty and one which,
at any rate, would be more honored in the
breach than the observance. The deprecia-
tior of silver is constantly going on, and the
prospect Of far more extensive supplies from
the Mexican mines than ever before leaves
the Government with money problem on its
hands that will test all its capacity and will,
doubtless, eventually greatly abridge the use
OF silver as money.

THE Speakership Of the next House Of
Representatives is keeping up lively simmer
OF the political pot on the Democratic side OF
politics. The democrats are trying to settle
down upon the sort of tariff the partyis to
preach, and the outcome is to be manifest in
the new Speaker. A tariff for protection
means Randall, for revenue exclusively, Car
Isle, for revenue incidentally ex-senator Eaton:
for other variations in the squeaking discords
Of the Democratic tariff organ, Springer, Cox,
young Dorsheimer, and others too numerous
to mention. The stalk played for is the
Presidential prize of 1884. The noisy poiti-
cal Democrat who talks more than he thinks,
claims that the party will give itself away on
Randall, but the brainier and older one:
think that tariff protection is the life-boat
that is going to save it by taking the wind
out of the Republican sails. Any way the
party has IS months yet to enjoy the pleasing
delusion of Democratic Presidential victory
in 1854. 1t is the old dream.

THE Illinois Legislature is wrestling with
the question of compulsory education Most
of the objections to the proposition come
from Chicago, the stronghold of Democracy,
where Carter Harrison, Mike Mcdonald and
other admirers of Tug Wilson and Bruiser
Sullivan, find time amid their efforts in behalf
of prize fighters, gamblers and sand baggers
to form the opinion that Ignorance is De-
mocracy's best friend, Education its worst
foe.

THE Waco Examiner says:-"If Shlwell
Russell had been elected to Congress, as Tom
Ochiltree was, it is very doubtful if he would
to-day be under sentence OF five years in the
Chester penitentiary." There is no analogy
between the two cases. Whatever may have
been the Red Headed Rangers faults or fail
ings he did not make any fraudulent returns
as the jury declared that Russell did. Russell
is not punished for being short in his accounts
but for raising them in order to deiraud the
Government.

New YoRK's penal code has been amended
in a manner which makes that portion of it
relating to Sunday observance supremacy ri
diculous, and occasions wonder that all the
true blue Sunday ordinances Of century ago,
recently brought to light by David Dudley
Field, have not been nullihed by the New
York Legislature. For instance, one Of the
provisions of the Sunday law was that no
hunting or fishing should be INDUCED in on
that day, and the Legislature amended it by
striking out fishing, so that now one may FISH
on Sunday, but not hunt. The sale Of bread
and meat is prohibited, but the amended Law
allows the sale of cigars, flowers and news
papers.

II was announced in the Catholic churches
in Boston on Sunday that the Augustinian So
cie,y would file bill Of insolvency, with the
intention of abandoning all efforts to reduce
the Indebtedness to depositors in the Au-
gustinian Savings association by collections.
The action was taken because the attachments
on church property would not be removed,
and it was desired by the society that all cred
itors should share alike. There are now "a
attachments, aggregating 500, 600, and the in
debtedness to 7o3 depositors is S45S,ooo,
which, with the mortgages, make the total
liabilities $4,000. If the property OF the
society is ordered sold by the courts, depos-
itors will scarcely realize per cent.

the present year and under the original
graft the city has the right to purchase
the roads at their appraised value.
The proposed removal of the char
tiers has provoked wide discussion,
and proposition has been made by ten
capitalists to advance the money for the
purchase of the roads and pay into the city
treasury annually ten per cent. of the
gross revenue. Street railway officials
deny such proposition can be or has been
made. Their supposed willingness to &C
cept the right of the city to the revenues
from them is shown in the ordinance sub
mitted to the council last night to pay a
yearly license of $50 on each car operated
on condition the charters are renewed for
twenty years. The ordinance was referred.
