The San Antonio light. (San Antonio, Tex.) 1883-1886, 1884-01-21

THE Galveston News is exuberantly jubi-
liant over the fact that it avowed a preference
for Thurman for President, aud that a large
majority Of the Texas Legislature has ex-
pressed preference for him, but it is blind
to the notorious fact that Thurman concurs
with Randalps views about the tariff, and
favors protection. How a free-trader, like
the News, can support a pro,ectionist for
President, after clamoing for the defeat Of
Randall, because of his tafif notions is one
OF those phenomenas which astound plain
people, who regard consistency as quite mer-
itorious.
The San Antonio light. (San Antonio, Tex.) 1883-1886, 1884-01-21

THE New Yor k Tribune says: "Republi
cans and the friends Of civil service reform
have cause for hearty satisfaction in the intro
duclisn of bills to repeal the Reform Act by
Congressman Shaw, Of Illinois, and Clay, Of
Kentucky. We look upon this move very
much as our esteemed Republican democrat
contemporary, the Sun, looks upon what it
calls the free trade agitation among the
Democrats. 1t will serve to put Congressmen
ofboth parties on record and show the people
just where they stand"
The San Antonio light. (San Antonio, Tex.) 1883-1886, 1884-01-21

THE LIGHT is decidedly in favor Of
proper system Of sewers as necessary sani-
tary measure, and desires to see it carried
out by the issuance Of bonds, based upon
vote of the people, after full discussion Of the
matter, but it also wants to know that the
funds will be properly used, and not wasted
and squandered. We hope the Mayor and
Council will realize the propriety of giving the
people ample satisfaction on the points iDd-
Gated.

a LOVERS QUARREL.
By ELLA WHEELER WILCOX.

There has crept curious jar and hal,
1t does not give us the same sweet pleasure;
But l have kept time-it is n It my fault.
When you struck false chord, l WINGED and
bore it;
You turned the wrong pages and then blamed
me;
You skipped whole bars when we tried to go
DER it,
And now we are hopelessly out of key.
And you arc penitent. dear, aud ready
To try he whole melody once again;
But am worn out, and my hand is unsteady;
tell you cannot go over the strain.
My nerves are unsteady and Ey head is weary;
QI have lost all interest and do not care;
You may play it alone-if the task is dreary,
Why, Just remember who spoiled the air
What fearful discords we made in closing
Though our touch was perfect when we kesan
The piece is worthy gods composing,
But It's always badly rendered by man.
l played my part with power and passion,
And now am done with that duet;
But you ran through it in idle fashion
You'll play it better with some one yet.

al remember" said lady present, in
answer to a reporters question, "when the
Office of dircctress was no sinecure. Miss
Alice Brown was eighteen when the position
was made, and at tina, time it required system
attic attention, as the directress had TO lay out
and apportion our work. There were few
dressmakers, or even sewing women, in those
days; and part of the sociey's revenue came
from the making and mending OF garments.

little sum 10y daming gentlemen's hose. All
that is changed now. We collec, and disburse
money. But we have no more public sewing

earned her right to retain i, by many years Of
active usefulness.
