Editor san Antonio Light.
We notice in your Saturdays issue a
call for mass meeting Monday night,
May 3lst, at the A. NJ. +. church. The
call reads that there is great dissatis-
faction with what has been done by the
committee of arrangements, for the eel
ebraion June 18th. Now, MIR. Editor,
we Wish you will allow us to say that
we can not believe that such great dis
satisfaction exists from the fact that we
have not heard of but one man who was
really dissatisfied, and all who know
anything about it at all, know him. We
wish to say to the committee we do hope
that they will go on with their good
work and pay no attention, or respect
the call, for he who tries TO please every
body, will please nobody.

CARDINAL MANNING was inter.
viewed in London, as we learn from
the New York Tribune, on Monday
last as to the rumoIs recently sprt ad
all over Europe as to the re- establish
ment by Leo XIII of the Jesuit order
in position Of prominence in Rome.
These rumo have excited special at
tention in France, where they have
been used to influence the hostility OF
section OF the French Republicans
agsinst the church in connection with
the recent ettempt to force the gov
eminent into br aGiDg the contotdat
aud str king the Clergy fund from the
budget. Cardinal Manning, who is in
excellent health and spitits, gave these
rumors an unqualified denial. They
originated, be said, in a total misap.
prehension of what has actually &C.
cured, which, he said, "may be
taken to De that without being abso-
lutely restored to the position made

Pope into possess on of privileges

to have it understood that the failure of the
county convention to in dorse the State plat
form on the liquor question absolves Shelby
Democrats from standing by it and their
representatives from being ugided by ii in

No. The national and State plat
forms Of the Democratic party are the
written constitution and law Of the
party ard the plain guide of every
member Of that pSriy, whether in or
out of Congress or ihs Legislature,
From these platforms there can be no
appeal until the next national and

is paramount over all individual opin-
ions and over all resolutions OF coun-

platforms are the solemnly, agreed

member OF it alike; and they cannot
be modified nor interpreted to suit in
dividual interest, or sway or sWerve

SENATOR VOORHEES,, OF Indiana, who

guished place among the leaders Of
the Democratic party, made speech
on Tuesday last to his constituents at
Indianapolis that was a careful and
compreher sive statement of the an
tagonistic positions OF the two great
parties. On The question of the tariff
he was especially clear and forcible.
He said he took for his guide in the
consideration Of that question the
platform adopted by the Democratic
convention in Chicrgo, and read from
it this following, as be termed it,
"wise, safe and patriotic propositions"
But in making reduction il taxes it is
not proposed to injure any domestic indus
tries, but rather to promote their healthy
growth. From the foundation of the govern
ment, taxes collected at the customhOuse
havo been the chief source of Federal reve-
nue.. such they must continue to be. More
over, many indu' tri, s have cone to rely on
legislation for sue essful continuance, so
that any change OF law must be at every step
regardful of the labor and capital thus in
yolve6. The process of reform must be sub
ject in execution to this plain dictate Of JUS

This is the law of the Democratic
party en- the much agtsted subject Of
