THE Michigan Supreme court has
given one little pointer to the news
papers regarding the law Of libel when
1t reversed n judgment in the lower
court against newspaper defendant,
and In the opinion said "that no duty
could be palmer than that of calling
public attention to the official disregard
of the principles which protect public
and personal liberty. Official acts Of all
kinds are legitimate subjects OF news
paper criticism. Judges and magis-
trates are not infalllble."

Ok THE subject Of the Gulf road,
the Goliad Guard says "wilson county
has already appointed her committee to
wait on the directory Of the San Anto-
MO railroad at San Antonio. Interest
is increasing all along the line, and early
developments favorable to the route on
the east side Of the river to Goliad and
Refugio are confidently expected. y
Messrs. II. T.. Clarkson and J. b, Melon
aid, Of Refugio, were in Goliad last Sat-
urday. They were delegates from Re-
fugio county to the railroad meeting.
They report their county as thoroughly
alive to the scheme of building the road
from San Antonio to Arkansas by Goliad
and Refugio. In fact the popular route
for that road will be through Floresville,
in Wilson county, Helena, in Karnes
county, Gollad and Refuglo." The Vic
toria Advocate thinks Of the two routes
spoken Of for the San Antonio and Aran-
sas Pass road, the one by Golad is the
road more preferable, because 1t would
open up very rich agricultural and
stock raising country.

SOME one has intimated that Tom
Bowers, of the Paris Free Tongue,
ought to be read out of the Democratic
party because that paper is opposed to
the lease law. Whereupon he comes
back in fine style in the following terse
sentence: "The editor of the Free
Tongue can show scars on his breast
and fore-arms received 20 years ago in
defense of Democratic principles and
the Democratic party, and at time,
too, when many Of these would-be
critics were skulking in the brush, or
even worse, were Radicals or Radical
sympathisers, but who now occupy front
seats in the Democratic household, and
to all such 1t desires to say, once for all,
that II scorns their criticisms, and now
gives them fair warning, that it will
continue to pursue the even tenor Of its
way, and will never cease to make bit
ter war on 'ringism, rottenness and
wrong-doing,' whether found In the
Democratic or Republican party"

Mr.. JONI BIDDULpH MARTIN, OF Lon
don, in paper on general economic
interest, headed "The Future of the
United States" contends that Great
Britain would long supply market for
cheap American food products; that, as
the result OF railway building, we would
have large aocretion of bona fide rail-
way securities; that the ultimate aboli-
tion Of the national debt would create a
fall in the rate Of interest, which would
be seriously felt by those depending on
fixed incomes, and would result In
lower wages and prices generally, that
the continuance of the large national
income from customs duties on i'm
ports would necessitate their abolition;
and finally, that with the increase OF
population and diffusion Of wealth, in
dlvldual fortunes will be less easily
made and less opportunity given fol-
gigantic operations in produce OF
stocks.

COLONEL ELLIOTT is doing active work
In the interest of the Texas exhibit at
the New Orleans fair, and his eloquence
and practical suggestions will add not a
little to the reputation OF the State on
that occasion. But there Is one other
agency at work for the fair which is not
appreciated now probably so well as 1t
will be when the fair opens in Deem
Der, and that Is the work done by the
Ladies' Auxiliary societies. In San An
tonic this is the case, and If there is any
interest being manifest now 1t is because
the ladies are doing it, and whether the
local exhibit be large or small 1t will be
mainly due to them. AT Casino hall to-
night they give concert and hop in
aid of the work and should receive the
full encouragement Of every good citi-
zen.

Answering "a ISnotty Question.

First Auditor Reynolds wrote letter to the
commissioners some time ago asking by what
authority the the appropriation for the fiscal
year ending June 80, $780, was used for the
payment of vouchers which are apparently a
proper charge against the appropriations for
1881. The commissioners have replied that
in apportioning the work upon the second
and third sections of the boundary sewer, il
was necessary to fix point on the line, by
estimate, for the termination of the second
section and the commencement of the third
section, us the work upon the two sections
was carried on simultaneously. When the
point there remained of the appropriation OF
1880 $5,797,s1, and it was ap piled to the work
done on the third section, which is simply a
continuation of the second section.

smashing the lamp, badly damaging the
vehicle, and throwing the load of meats aud
greens high into the air. A boy named Dem

The police and fire alarm relief station
boxes recently erected in the fifth police pre-
cinct do not seem to meet with the favor of
either the officers or the citizens. 1t takes
considerable practice to operate one of them
successfully, and although they have been in
position for three months they have been but
seldom used. In the estimate of the COM
missioners for the next fiscal year, an appro.
priaton of s., 900 is asked to purchase these
machines. 1t takes as much time to operate
one, according to accounts of the officers, as it
would to 60 to the station house and get
what was wanted. The citiz ems who have
talked on the subject say that they obstruct
the sidewalks and are general nuisance.
