The Troy Times gets oil the follow
ing: "a weary looking woman with the
remains of fading beauty still visible
was seen yesterday holding a newspaper
in her handand bitterly weeping. Her
eyes were red, and the tender-hearted
observer asked her what was the mat
ter. I'm the star-eyed goddess of re-
form, and have been reading the Demo-
cratic PLATFORM she sobbed."

The indifference manifested by the
capitalists towards the railroad to the
Gulf, operated as a surprise to the body
Of our citizens and has provoked good
deal of unfriendly comment and criti-
cism. 1t does not have ilattering look
abroad to have the moneyed men of q
city-the men most deeply interested in
Its continuous growth and prosperity
CONTEMPORARY turn their backs on a
project which is both feasible and neces-
sary and leave things to drift with the
current. This is an age of progress and
improvement. Towns and cities are
on the lookout for means to extend
their trade and business and emulation
and rivalry are pushed to the utmost.
The town or city which undertakes to
play Rip Van Wrinkle, to doze and sleep
while its neighbors and rivals are
crowding on every stitch Of CANVASS
possible to get ahead, will wake up some
morning to full sense of its folly by
finding that while 1t slept the sleep of
the sluggard its richest trade has been
diverted into new channels by its more
enterprising rivals. 1t is no time for
the do nothing lie-on-the-oar policy.
yigor and enterprise are in the air. The
stand still policy now simply means the
stapnation and death of town or oity.
People at a distance regard II as having
the seed of CONSUMPTION in its system
and as doomed TO A speedy death and
therefore decline to make investments
in IT. Men of Judgment seek TO settle in

NAT Q. HENDERSON is the editor Of the
Georgetown Record, and is a candidate
for Representative from Williamson
county. But while he is a good natured
editor and industrious candidate he falls
back upon his rights as free American
citizen when he is Ill treated by local
correspondents, as shown by his letter to
the Austin Statesman on Tuesday. The
LIGHT hopes he will be nominated and
elected by the handsome majority he
deserves.

THERE is not as much said about Mr..
Blaine's being defeated since the publi-
cation of his letter. The boiling indie
pendents seem to have lost much of their
assurance also, and 1t may be fact that
the usual Democratic blunder has been
made, in view OF the little circumstance
that no workingman who belongs to any
organization will cast a vote for Mr..
Cleveland for President.

Tux total number OF negroes In the
United States Is estimated at 100000,
or one-ninth OF the entire population.
Only seven Northern States have
higher colored population than 10000,
and of these the highest is Pennsylvania
with Gj,O00. The last census indicated
the fact that the white population
doubles itself In every % years, while
the negro does the same in every 20
years. From these figures a writer in
the North American Review, making
allowance for foreign and Northern i'm
migration, concludes that In 100 years
the negroes in every Southern State
will be double the number OF whites.

THE Hon. Samuel Wallingford, the
leading Observation-Disclosures advocate in
Southern Indiana, hits the nail on the
head. lie says: "The workingmen asked
the Republicans for protection, and they
put such plank in their platform. They
asked the Democratic party only for the
same thing, and what did they do? In
stead Of taking the declarations that
their representative, Butler, presented,
they shouted and Missed him down. |
tell you the laboring men will elect
Blaine, and nothing can defeat him.
Blaine has always been popular with
them. They take no stock in the SLAM
der that the press keeps publishing. This
Eastern Independent movement is GO
ing TO aid the Republican ticket. They
are regarded by laboring men as danger
GUS to American industries"

Ex- Governor J, p. st. John, Of Kansas,

Daniel, Of Maryland, for Vice Presi-

numbers now, 1t is quite evident that 1t
is growing rapidly, especially in the
West and Southwest, and will effect the

The San Angelo Standard says; "rhe
Merchant and Manufacturer, n monthly
trades journal, edited in San Antonio by
Henry Ryder-Taylor, is one of our best
exchanges. 1t displays great amount
of editorial and typographical ability.
We never saw flnerprintlng or compost
ton anywhere that it contains. The
only works that equal 1t are the publica-
tions issued by the type founders. who
have virgin type and unlimited time and
resources. We hope 1t is what 1t looks
tobe-a paying institution" The LIGHT
appropriates this compliment because
the Merchant and Manufacturer is set up
and printed from this office, and is indi-
oative of the work the LiGHT can do, MS
also showing the growth Of this esiab-
lishment in the last year.
