OS YESTERDAY San Antonio was the
scene OF one of those brutal outrages
that apall the stoutest heart, the
crime Of rape by n lusty negro on a
child OF only years of age. In all ages
and all olimes this crime has been held
in the greatest adherence, and fathers
and mothers have always felt that no
punishment Of such criminal could be
too swift or too sure. This is the feeling OF
to-day, and until community is brought
face to face with such reality they do
not appreciate the full force of its enor-
nifty. The crime of the negro Jake
Langdon yesterday should be expiated
fully and swiftly. No family, no child,
no mother or sister Is safe with
such brute at large. The LIGHT is no
advocate Of lynch law, but in such cases
the wheels of Justice are too slow to
satisfy the demands of outraged inno-
oence and childish trust. The mob last
night failed Of its purpose, but there
would have been but few TO condemn
had the ravisher been found hanging
this morning to any convenient lamp
post.

This is the fatal weakness Of the Turner

more nor less than Office seekers, wire
pulleIs and ringsters, and its whole OBJ
ject is simply for revenue only, and
party considerations were lost in Its
make up. The revolt In Bexar county
against ring rule Is genuine, and to that
end the Turner hall Democratic ticket,

cordant elements, will be rebuked.

THE following from the pen of Horace
Greedy is no less true at this time than
when first written by the great Journal
LIST: "lf you want to keep town from
thriving, don't erect any more dwellings
than you can conveniently occupy your
self. IL you should accidentally have
an empty building, and any one should
want to rent it, ask three times the value
OF 1t. Demand Shylock price for
every foot of ground that God has given
you stewardship over. Turn cold
shoulder to every mechanic and business
man whoseeks to make home with you.
Look at every new conner with n sc0wl.
Run down the work of new workmen.
Go abroad for wares rather than seek to
do business in your midst. Fail to adj
vertise, or In any way to support n
newspaper, so that people abroad may
not know whether business is going on
In your town or not. Wrap yourself
with coat Of impervious selilshness.
There Is no way to eiieotually retard
the growth Of town than actions like
these enumerated"

The case against the Democracy, with
respect to the tariff is thus summed up
by the Cincinnati Times-Star: "a vic
tory Of that party would certainly mean
year or more Of distrust, doubt and de-
preston. Business could not revive,
simply because Of lack Of confidence in
the future among business men. Then,
II another Morrison bill, or something
worse, should pass at the session of
1856, the country would be precipitated
from general stagnation into general
panic. These are the plain, unvarnished
facts. Democratic as well as Republi-
can business men see the dangers threat
ened by a popular endorsement of
Presidential nomination which repre-
sents the policy Of the Morrison wing.
And they condemn the leadership of the
party"

THE Turner hall ticket Is In n bad way
when its advocates are forced to stand
good for the genuineness of its Democ-
raoy. Being the creation of the ring, the
matter Of politics was overlooked until
the fact was questioned. The ring was
so bent on running things to suit them
selves that the little question of an in
dependent or two as standard bearers
did not look so bilious as ii does now
and will n week later; and they are
doing everything possible to make
amends for the oversight. The Turner
hall ticket will have to go.
The Texas Monitor,gives the following
sensible advice TO the Houston Journal
regarding its know-nothing articles of n
few days ago: "Come now, Journal,
discuss the political questions Of the day
fairly and don't miEd where your polit-
ical antagonists first made their appear
ance on the earth Answer their argu-
ments II you can, but do not let us hear
about Southern scalawags who happen
to differ with you on politics or about
men Of European origin" as II to be Of
European origin were disgraoeful. Be-
sides, this know-nothing spirit. as shown
occasionally to the press, is harmful to
Texas"

THE COTTON CASES


The case OF the State VS.. Joe Lohonstein,
No. 7,7a9, charging him with swindling

morning and the motion TO quash was fr-
gued by counsel for the defense who pro-
duced an array OF authorities TO support
their position. Tire counsel for the state
asked until O'Clock In order TO examine the
authorities and TO produce others to sustain
the validity OF the indictment. Alter full
hearing the motion to quash was overruled,
and the case will come up for trial this
morning. 1t Is probable that motion TO
consolidate these clses will be heard this
morning. The argument on the motion to
quesh was made by Mr.. O. II. Clint county
attorney. and Colonel t. J. Brown, eesoc-
ate prosecutor, and by Judge Crawford and
Mr.. Robert Il. Cowait for the defense. The
grounds of the motion to quash were as
follows:
Flrst-The indictment does not purport
10 be q written statement OF the grand jury
charging On oifenAe in this. the paper
pasted TO the indictment is not referred 10
as an exhibit or identified In any manner as
the act Of the grand Jury.
Second-There isno sufficient description
OF the money alleged to have been OBJ lined
from Oliver u Ctiggs or II. Is. Strange, ne
Ia the value OF said money alleged, or thaf
II had any value. :
Third-There is no allegation In said in

mentioned ives ever delivered. 10 or
accented by Oliver & Grlggs or
h. Il. Strange, or that they ever had or &c.
ouired any intsres. in the said bill OF lad
