corpus for County Clerk Dalton on the ap-

until they have concluded their work.
Judge Robertson permitted Mr. Dalton to

TOO MUCH TAFFY.

The Times editorial Of last evening
anent the suggestion Of LIGHT cores
pendent that Doctor Herff would make
such congressional representative as
San Antonio would be proud OF, Is emf
nently characteristic Of that journal.
While giving the doctor all the tafiy for
which the SOledad shanty Is so noted ,ad
nausuem, it nevertheless kicks at the
suggestion, because it would interfere,
for the benefit Of San Antonio, with the
little ring schemes Of the interested
democracy and it's fugleman. The rela-
tons of DIR. Herff to this suggestion,
other than those Of his supreme fitness
for the place, ii Is not the province OF the
Times to discuss. When objection Is
made by the Times to the candidacy OF
DR.. Herff, on the ground that he Is too
good man to throw himself away as
congressional representative, the Times
makes an admission against the esti-
mate placed upon congressional work,
by it and the party it represents, that is
most damaging 10 both. No one Will
doubt the authority OF the Times on
questions of democratic standards, and
when the Times says that If elected to
congress DIR. Herff would only enjoy an
empty honor, he merely says that men,
bership In the present democratic con-
gress is AL empty honor, below the seri-
Gus consideration Of such man as DIR.
Herff. The LIGHT does not question
the correctness of the Times appraise-
ment placed upon Its own party. 1t
does affirm, however, that the work of
wisely legislating for the interests Of
the nation, in the present juncture OF
affairs, demands the very highest quail
ity of mental and moral manhood. 1t
does affirm that 1t is the duty Of the citi-
zen to place so high a valuation upon
this work of congressional representa-
ton rs to deem no man too worthy or
well qualified to exercise Its high office;
also, TO leave no means untried to secure
such representatives rs will confer dig
nifty upon the office and whe, In accept
ing it, serve not themselves, but the
people. 1t does affirm that no man is
fit for the Office who cannot bring to the
performance Of its duties such abilities
as will insure him greater monetary re-
turns in business or professional life than
the salary he receives as congressional
representative. 1t does affirm that this
Office should come unsought to the man,
and that coming unsought 1t is for him
to whom IL Is offered to accept or reject
and not for those who assume to speak
where they are not authorized. Affirm
ing these things the LIGHT affirms moth
ing concerning DR.. Herf, beyond en-
dOrsing the estimate placed upon him
by Its correspondent, fully assured that
the attempt OF the Times to surfeit the
DR.. with taffy will not blind the eyes Of
the public to the attempt thus made to
shunt the subject of his candidacy offthe
track.

THERE are signs in the sky and sounds
In the air that assure US Of a wane in the
boom business. Even the Bartow-Ross
mill turns Its wheels with ever inoreas-
ing slOwness and there is a WEAKNESS in
the wordiness ofthe attempt to keep up
the racket until convention time, that is
very painfully apparent and apparently
painful. Another month OF agony, quiet
death stroke and the boomers pain will
end in deep repOse.
The unwashed and unterrifled OF the
tenth congressional district meet on the
last day OF this present month. Four
weeks In which to do all the drum,
drum, drumming for the primaries and
the county convention and get the dem
ocratic house in order for the nomina-
ton OF ring candidate.
The ball opens in Liverpool to-day
where the first elections for parliament
are being held. Gladstone is making a
very determined fight in every quarter
where success is deemed even remotely
possible. His hope lies In wrestling some
OF the English constituencies out Of the
hands of the conservatives, by the Irish
votes which at the last elections were
cast against him.
