The Galveston News, in reply to let
ter from German American, says:
"rhe News is first, last and all the time
an American newspaper. 1t is published
and edited by Americans for Americans.
It views the affairs Of all the world from
an American standpoint. II owes
neither awe nor reverence, neither
affection nor Difference to liimarck, or
salisbury. or De GicrF, or Cauovas, or
their royal bosses or associates. and has
no preiudiccs or leanIngs toward one or
the other. or all, except such prcjudices
or leanings as American ideas or Ameri-
can interests may suggest, shape and
direct"

4 WRITER In the New York World
says the following about State Depart
ment clerks: IAN of the diplomats ut
Washington wear Eyeglasses. That is
considered one Of the first requirements
of diplomacy. The diplomatic enter
talnmcnts really have other objects be-
sides the mere qualification Of pleasure.
The employees in the State Department
are often in possession Of valuable Sc
crets, not always about this country, but
frequently rclatingto the affairs of other
countries. As II rule the average State
Department clerk will tell all that he
knows add more, too, for the prospect
of a walk or drive with Baron this or
Count that. 1t is notorious that the for
eign diplomats in Washington never
have any trouble in getting at the Sc
crets Of the State Department, although
the newspapers are compelled to wait
the pleasure of His EXcellency, the Sec
rotary, which is generally about three
weeks later than It is furnished the pip
lomatic Corps.n

THE San Antonio and Aransas Pass
railroad is gradually creeping its way to
the Gulf. The rails are being laid, and
the work pushed forward as rapidly ms
possible. 1t will be one Of the greatest
factors In the future Of San Antonio, and
with deep water Mt the pass will do more
towards developing Western Texas than
the public generally realize.

The investigation of Justice Nuen-
dorf by the grand jury is step in the
right direction, and will prove beneficial
not only in Bexar county but in the
State generally. Men look upon their
official responsibilities too lightly, and
are inclined to ignore the strict sense Of
justice they are supposed to observe, in
the desire to obtain Il few dollars. Other
officers of the courts, men who have the
summoning Of jurles and witnesses in
some of the local courts, need the cor
recting influences of the grand jury to
show them that they cannot beat this or
that case at their own will and option.
But better than all, yenll officer should
be bounced at once, and made to feel
that he has outraged not only justice but
the men who elected him to Office.

The LIGnI has received a number Of
communications recently which were Of
local interest, and personal, but which
were not accompanied .by the name Of

expect newspaper to assume the res

pecially when in matters OF local inter-

Getting Even.

A grocer was one day hungrily
waiting for his clerk to return from
dinner, that he, too, might
partake of his MONDAY meal, when d
boy came into the store with a basket
in his hand and said: 81 seed a boy
grab up this ERE basket from the door
and run, and ran after him and made
him give it up "My boy, you are a
good, honest boy replied the grocer,
''and good boys should always be en-
couraged. In basket in the back
room are eight dozen eggs; you can
take them home TO yonr mother and
keep the basket. The grocer had
been saving up those eggs for weeks
to reward some one. In rewarding a
good boy he also got rid of eight dozen
bad eggs, and he chuckled as he walk
ed homeward. The afternoon waned,
night came and went, and once more
the grocer went to dinner. During
his absence the boy returned with the
eggs and sold them to the clerk, thus
getting even with the grocer and
making a good profit of the bad eggs
There is profit in most things if peo-
pie will only profit by them. There is
profit in using N. X. Fairbank Co. S
famous brands of Lakeside and
white STAR perfumed soaps. They
are the best in the market, being ex-
pressly prepared for the toilet, the
bath and the laundry. All grocers
keep them. ~

Something for the Baby.

What terrible affliction about the
house is a cross, crying baby! A
young man on the very edge of matri-
mony might easily be frightened from
his purpose by having too much OF
that sort of music at the homes of his
married friends. Yet babies cry
commonly only when they are sick.
One teaspoonful of Parker's tonic Civ
en- the little one, will bring rest and
sleep to the baby and all the house.
Only so cents, at druggists.
