The Years Collections.

Hon. Jos. s. Miller, commissioner OF
internal revenue, has made a prelimin-
AIRY report of the operations OF internal
revenue service during the fiscal year
ended June 30, 1886, OF which the follow
ing is an abstract: Total collections for
the year were Sll6,902, Sl5; total oollec-
tiOns for previous fiscal year, SIP, 52l.-
III, showing an increase OF S4,4Sl ,72i.
The increase was made up rs fOllOwsI
81, 5Sl ,055 on spirits, 81 800, PA on tobac-
co, 81 AS, 949 on fermented liquors. The
amount is reduced by decrease OF S25,-
600 on banks and bankers and decrease
of $50, 55l in miscellaneous receipts.
There was an Increase of 252 ,ll2 in
the number Of cigarettes, an increase of
Isl ,923 ,SG5 In the number Of cigars, an in
crease of ll.0l0,574 in the number of
pounds of tobacco, an increase Of COG, l0S
in the number Of gallons Of spirits dis
titled from grain and other material, and
an increase of l,52i,9S0 in the num-
Der of barrels Of fermented liquors as
compared with the previous fiscal year.
The states in which the greatest collec-
tons were made are, respectively:
Illinois, S23, So, 253; Kentucky, Sl5,-

collections: Vermont, S33,503 and Mis-
sissippi, $47 ,072. In concluding his re-
port Commissioner Miller says: 1t is
yet too early to make any accurate esti-
mate OF the total collection for the cur
rent fiscal year. Reports from various
collection districts, however, and infor-
nation from the larger manufacturing
centres, together with a large increase
in the receipts for the present month, as
compared with the same month of last
year, indicate that the receipts for the
year will be considerably increased.

surest Tranouilizer of the Nerves

The surest traquilizer of the nerves is a
medicine which remedies their supersensitve-
ness by invigorating them. Over.tension Of
the nerves always weakens them. What they
need, then, is tonic not sedative. The lat
ter is only useful when there is intense men

HOstetter's Stomach BittCrs restores tranquil
ity of the nerves by endowing them with the
vigor requisite TO bear, without being Jared
or disturbed unhealthfully, the ordinary i'm
pressiOns produced through the media OF
sight, hearing and reflection. Nay, IL does
more than this-it enables them to sustain
degree Of tension from mental application
which they would be totally unable 10 endure
without its assistance. Such, at least, is the
irresistible conclusion to be drawn from the
testimony Of business and professional men,

tested the fO-tifying and rcpantive influence
Of this celebrated tonic and nervine. 7-21.lw

The Cream City and its Great Saenger-
fest.
Prof. Harry f.. Guenther, young
musician OF Milwaukee who spent last
winter and spring in San Antonio for
his health, writes n LIGHT reporter per
sonal letter as follows:
MILWAUKEE, July %, 1856.
Ii affords me great pleasure TO write
you, that after a pleasant journey and
after spending few days in New Or
leans and Chicago, | reached my Mil
waukee home In safety.
found the old Cream city still stand
ing at its old place, but greatly i'm
proved by numerous handsome and large
new edifces. 1t well deserves the name
Of Cream city owing to Its beauty, clean
illness and good management.
OF San Antonio can only impress up
on nv northern friends the best of Opin-
ion of your city and its sOciable and gen
erOus inhabitants, among whom ! have
spent most pleasant winter.
Speaking Of the Milwaukee Saenger-
fest, which after years of preparati IN,
opens to-day, can say the following:
The weather Is perfection, clear and
bright with pleasant, cool breeze. The
city has the appearance OF one large,
handsomely decorated garden, display
ing some most beautiful decorations, nu-
merous grand arches being erected over
the streets in all parts OF the city.
Different societies headed by bands of
music parade the streets continually,
which are thrOnged with people from all
parts of the union. Each incoming train
increases the number of strangers, which
are received at the GepOts by II commit
i 81 fah In hni
respective headquarters. The city with
an estimated number OF fifty thousand
strangers, presents very gay and lively
appearance. Hotels and boarding houses
are all filled up.
Last evening the general rehearsal
took place at the Exposition huilding,
when has been temporarily fitted up
for music hall for the occasion, and
very handsomely decorated.
The rehearsal was open TO the public
and udmiltaucc Of 30 cents charged, lad
mittance to concerts being 81 and $3.50

This rehearsal was well attended,
there having been sold somewhat over
seven thousand tickets at the door, be-
sides all those admitted without tickets,
or COinplimcutaries.
The concerts promise to be a rare mu-
steal treat, the main concert being Fri
day evening.
The solo parts in these concerts are

Replied, Too Late.

1t is now stated to be fact that i'm
mediately after the first vote was taken
by precincts, in the democratic men,
agerie last Saturday, Mr.. Jose Cassiano
was so well satisfied that the vote had
been enormously announced that he
went to the secretary's table, procured
the list Of the votes, and, after carefully
adding up the vote, pro and con, discoy-
cred the error that had been made and
pointed 1t out to Chairman Cooke, who
replied that it was then too late to cor
rect it, What surprises every one is,
that two errors should be made and both
OF them should be in favor Of the same
faction.

Cure For Piles.

Piles are frequently preceded by sense of
weight in the back, lOins and lower part of the
abdomen, causing the patient to suppose he
has some affection of the kidneys or neigh
boring organs. At times symptoms of indi-
gestion are present, tlatulcncy, uncasincss OF
the stomach, etc. y moisture, like pcrSpira-
ton, producing very disagrccable itching
after getting warm. Is a common attendant.

NO NEW CONVENTION.

The Bexar county democracy are
there The executive committee affirm
their lack of Jurisdiction in the matter
OF calling another convention. The
chairman of the executive committee
seems indIsposed to issue any certiti-
Gates to delegates. and the democratic
journals of the city insist that the action
of the convention as to delegates must
stand because their election was with
out dissent. In the meantime. there is
no dispute about the reversing OF the
will OF the majority Of the convention
by the erroneous count OF the clerks.
The question now is will the majority
abide by this error and accept its conse-
quences. 1t is fallaciOus 10 say that the
delegates being elected without opposi-
tiOn their election must stand. 1t is
equally misleading to say that the con-
vention having made G. W. Russ cleo
tion unanimous, that election must
stand. Both of these results-the cleo
ton OF chairman and his being de-
clared the unanimous choice OF the con-
tion, and the selection of delegates to
Galveston, etc, were based on fraud,
and fraud OF such nature rs to vitate
all that followed it because it substitu-
ted the will of the minority for the will
OF the majority. 1t WAS on the
ground Of the righteousness Of the count
that the convention made the election
OF Mr.. Russ unanimous, and then &C
copied the nominations of delegates
made by the chair The whole work of
that convention was done under the
conviction that the will OF the majority
had been given expression to in the
vote to table the minority report;
also that the will of the majority had
been followed in substituting the minor
ity report for the majority report. This
error in the count did not vitiate the
will of the convention, to hold other
wise Is a doctrine too dangerous to be
entertained. If the will of the conven-
ton as expressed by its majority vote is
Its law, then Oscar Besgstrom was
chairman. 1t was the intention of the
convention to make unanimous the
choice Of its majority, and that unani-
nous declaration meant Bergstrom. 1t
was the intention OF that convention to
confirm the appointment Of delegates
made by a committee selected by the
chairman representing the majority Of
the convention, but this was not done
The convention was called for pur.
pOse-that purpose to determine the
will Of the majority OF the democrats Of
Bexar county in convention assembled
as to candidates. The election of the
permanent chairman. by whom all the
committees were to be appointed and the
personel complexion Of the delegates de
termined, was the vital question to b
decided. 1t was understood that which
ever side won in the contest for chair
msnship was to be accorded the contro
of the convention, and the selection o
the majority OF the delegates. Instea,
of this being done the very opposite wa
done. By strange error in figures tn
minority was substituted for the major
ity throughout and the majority defraud
ed of their right to control. The en-,
cannot be yet.

THERE are symptoms OF another veto
in the air. This time it is that unctuOus
act known as the OleOmargarine bill that
is threatened. The president evidently
doubts heconstitutiOnality of the meas
ure. The people generally do not doubt
the injustice OF it, and its veto would
not be regarded as an act of offensive
partisanship and is certainly not open to
the objections that Growers other yetoes
have been. This is an oily subject and
the president can slip through without
friction and at the same time indulge
his prOpensities.
