Wrecked by Politics.

The close observer of American polt-
cal life must be sadly impressed by the
many men whose financial downfall is
directly traceable to their participation
in public life. There is scarcely coun-
ty that does not furnish more than one
man who entered public life in good cir
cumstances and with bright prospects,
and who have become financial wrecks.
Probably more than majority of the
men who enter public life meet with
this fate and go down to their graves in
poverty. These wrecks are not confined
to the men who have maintained their
personal integrity have found the parti-
cipation in public life has brought in its
train poverty and personal privation.--

ACUTE AND CHRONIC


All persons suffering with Pulmonary
troubles will do well to call on DIR. l.. V.
Weathers, of this city. He treats Lung
troubles by medicated sprays, which Is
thrown into the throat, finding its way
through the respiratory organs into all
diseased lung tissues. Any other mode
is like fire engine exhausting its
strength upon the side of n burning
building when the flames are rapidly
consuming the body. DIR. Weathers Is a
graduate of the Jefferson Medical Col
lege Of Philadelphia, with such men of
distinction and renown as Gross, Pan
coast, Durglison and others of like char
acter AS teachers and authors. With IS
years of successful practice he feels that
he can stay In San Antonio, notwith-
standing a disposition Of few venomous
spirits who try and elbow him out Of
public favor

X. Il. Choate came to San Antonio
after cough for two years, with hem

sweats, until life had been despaired of.
He was referred to DIR. Weathers, of this

Is to-day stout, active man. In the
language of MIR. Choate, "My case was
considered hopeless by all who knew
me-"

THE privileges Of the House of Rep
resentatives have again been shameful
ly abused by permitting members 10
have speeches printed i'll the Congress
sioual Record, never delivered in The
House. Mr. MtAdoo, of New Jersey,
wanted to say something ON an amend
ment offered in reference 10 the support
of a soldiers home, aud the House, not
wishiug to stay and listen 10 his speech,
gave him l"ave 10 print il in the Re.
cord. Great was the surprise of every.
body when the Record appeared with
an attack ON General Logan, Tie Re.
publican candidate for Vice President
chasing him amongst the land monopo.
lists of the country, and the owner OF
80, 600 acres of land. General Logan
| does not own au acre of land except a
small homestead Mr.. McAdoo, OF
course, told one out of the whole cloth,
something of which he became pain
fully aware of when he WAS faced with
the charge in Congress on Friday, and
he no doubt wishes he hadn't said any
, thing aboutLogan. Congress would per
form meritC rions act if it would abol
ish the Record or coutine il to the act

A Councilman. Removal, .

Councilman Speakman's removal
from the ward he is elected from as a
representative in the City Council will
no doubt form the excuse for al at
tempt on the part of the Democrats t.
get an additional member in that body
1t is said that Mr.. Speakmau only in
tends his removal to the Eleventh ward
to be temporary mere summer resi-.
dence, intending when the ides of au
tumn come again, and the flowers cease
to bloom to remove back, and en-
dure the rigors of winter in the Seventh
ward.
This looks plausible enough, and
were there nothing more behind 1t than
mere temporary change Of residence,
like going to Cape May, Atlantic City,
Long Branch, or even to Port Penn, for
few weeks. we doubt If the Democrats
in Council would entertain thought OF
taking advantage Of the change. But
| it is said there are some business trans
actions behind this movement which
gives Mr.. Speakman's removal the ap-
pearance of a permanent change, and
farther makes his attempt to hold on
to his seat in Council look like taking
an unwarrantable advantage of the sit
uation. fit turns out to be true as re-
ported that Mr. Speakman and Mr.
Brown have made a permanent ex
change of properties in q bargain ant
sale, and that now Mr.. Speakman i.
living in Mr.. Browns former home, ani
Mr.. Brown is living in Mr.. Speakman'l
former home, all appearances Of TEN
Iporary change vanish, and any ar
arrangement made by which Mr.. Speak
man can still hold his seat in Council
will be but a technical arrangement
and the Seventh ward will hereafter b'
represented in Council by man actual
ly residing in an entirely different par
of the city.
Looking at the case from nom parti
san standpoint it appears to us clearl,
that Mr.. Speakman has forfeited hi
seat in Council.
The argument that Mr. Speaknan ha
leased back from Mr.. Brown his forme
residence in the Seventh ward, an,
that portion of his furniture still re
mains in the ward, are not favora bl
arguments for Mr.. Speakman, and par
take too much Of the dodge" in poll
tics to be accepted as legitimate an,
straightforward honesty by intelligen
, citizens.
1t is to be regretted that Mr.. Speak
man has found it necessary II chang
, his residence before his term in Council
expired, as it counts one less on the lie
publican side, even though it does no
