SAN ANTONIO.
An Old Patriot Tells WHIST He Thinks
About Trade and Commerce, Etc.

Editor San Antonio Light
Our Commerce street Is unlike Broad
way in New York, in being a reminder
Of the old Spanish style OF narrow streets
and psvements; but even In this, there
Is q PLEASURE In mental association and
historical "Reminiscences; leading to the
ultimate thought that after all, there Is
but one family-the human race, and
but one Countrywide earth.
There are wholesale business houses
In groceries and dry goods and other
lines on Commerce street. San Antonio
furnishes an ample abundance and vari-
ETY. Of merchandise for the merchants of
the interior, In village and city and for
our neighboring Republic Of Mexico. 1t
Ia, Of course, TO the interest Of San An
tonic wholesale dealers to make Ii to
the interest of dealers from distance to
make this city their business center for
purchases. Ii was one Of the silliest
acts on record for that greedy impatient
fellow to kill the hen that laid the golden
egg to get them all at once. He at once
oyerreached himself, and fell on t'other
side.
Another thing, the genial urbanity Of
San Antonio merchants is a strong in
uuOement 10 uehlers' mere is pleas
ure, even an indescribaDle charm, In
genuine courtesy OF manner, which Is
not only highly ornamental, but is also
OF such utility as to be Indispensable to
success. In order to do this, there must
be real Interest, In true feeling, for the
prosperity OF customers. The merchant
or dealer from another point must pros
per that we may hope to be profited by
his future patronage. 1t Is at once seen
how closely identical are the interests Of
all. There is no use of the senseless YER
blage Of "get all you can and keep all you
got" and dry up the current OF
sympathy. This sort OF procedure
is just as Improbable as 1t is
heartless. Mannerism or formal ETH
quette in excess is simply nauseous.
But the pleasant address, and genial
smile, and natural play OF good humor,
indicating kind feeling and good wishes,
are actually no less profitable than pro-
duotiye OF mutual sunshine of soul to all
parties. In this particular, and in the
chief point Of good bargains or cheap
ness and variety Of articles, and in the
many historical and ever-enlarging and
still new attractions Of this great metro
polls OF Western Texas and Of the entire
South west ofthe father Of waters, our
city Is unimpeached and unimpeachsble.

The Destructive Peepal Tree.

A curious destroying of human works
In India, according to DIR. r. +. Hutch
inson, is the peepal tree. This is kind
Of fig, which multiplies beyond the
power Of man to destroy, its little seeds
being sown broadcast over the land in
the droppings Of the birds and bats
which feast on its fruit. The peepal
rises everywhere, and its effects Is the
disiategrstion OF rocks and buildings,
the danger being so great that the keep
ers OF large structures are constantly on
watch during fig time for bird-drop-
pings. As an Illustration Of what the
tree may do and OF its wonderful yitali-
ty, ii is stated that on the summit Of the
northern minaret OF the great mosque of
Bareilly, $50 feet high, peepal flour
ishes grandly beyond reach, and its ever
active roots are gradually breaking up
the cupola Of the minaret.

ged" the whole business in Ohio,
with the exception of five members

cd are as follows: Hill, Seney, Yo-

Those in doubt are Murray, of our

Denver in the. Twelfth. The Re-
publicans are claiming the State
by from 10000 to $4,000 majority.
In New York city the Democrats
have elected a Democratic Mayor

ular vote. Morrison, of Illinois, for
Congress, is reelected, which is a
great Democratic victory. King
Bob Kennedy is elected to Con-

defeated for Congress in the Toledo
district. We have no tears to shed
for him. The Republicans carry

morning session failed to materialize, owing
to the absence of the speaker, Prof. Dennis,

The inaugural of the reelected President,

well prepared paper and thoroughly appreci-
ated by all.
Mr.. George early then followed with a very
clear and concise explanation of the princi-
Piles underlying the art of photography.
The principal business which followed was
in reference to the organization of a Preble

the matter. The meeting then adjourned to

Under a Democratic reform adj

the Pension Office. In the fiscal
year commencing July l, 1884, and
ending June 80, 1885, under Re-

show the following time as lost by
absences: On account of annual
leave, $3.50 days; on account of
sickness, 1876; total, 54,316 days.
In the fiscal year commencing July

WASHINGTON 7
From Our Regular Correspondent.
WASHINGTON, D. c.,
NJ 1000

This week has been rather a quiet
one in Washington. The President
and his Cabinet returned promptly
after the fatigue of Bartholdi day in
New York, and settled down to their
desks. I do not think they are billed
for any more fairs or dwellings this
fall. The annual autumn races, which
have always attracted large contin-
gents from the fashionable, Diploma
tic, Army, Navy and official circles
OF Washington, arc in progress, but
the weather is unpropitious and they
have excited less interest than usual.
Those of you who live far removed
from Governmental machinery can
not realize the extent of the improve
ments in Departmental work under
the New Administration. But those
of us who have been here all the time,
and who have seer SO much of the
idleness, extravaganza, worthlessness
and corruption of the old Republican
officials and methods, take special de-
light in the new order of things and
feel.as if too much could not be said
about it.
For instance, The current business
of the Patent Office is in a much bet
ter and more prosperous condition
than when Commissioner Montgom-
cry assumed control. At that time
the work was largely in arrears, and
he has succeeded in bringing much of
it up to date. The application of an
inventor for a patent is now reached
in about three months after filing.
The time was formerly five and a half
months. Mr.. Montgomery says he
expects to bring all Of the work sub
stantially up to date within the next
few months, and SO keep it.
A little over a year ago some of the
divisions in this Office were as much
as seventeen months behiSd in their
examinations. To fully appreciate the
work accomplished, consideration
must be given to the fact that the
Commissioner was inexperienced and
had to study up and advise himself
thoroughly on all points relating to a
very difficult practice. The attorneys
practicing before the Office are much
pleased with the progress made, and
ask that the good work may go on.
The Patent Office, besides being self
supporting, pays a balance in the
Treasury. There is now all account
to its credit of nearly three million
dollars. Last year "a, 134 patents were
granted out of 1895 applications.
A new order Of things c~onfronts
politicians these days; no help from
Washington, and stumping federal
officials to be called to account. Con-
sequently but few can be seen here
this week. The elections are only
five days off, but the habit of running
to Washington in a hurry TO get
friends or offices to assist in the cleo
ZION, is not in order this year. No
assistance beyond sending out docu-
ments by the campaign committees
has been drawn from the Capital,
