Agricultural Bill,

WASHINGTON, d. c., August In

on agriculture, reported back the

duties of the department of agricul-
ture, and to create an extra depart
ment of agriculture, in the bill as re-
ported. The provisions of the house

THE democracy not only shake
Harrison because he was so unfortu-
nate as to have a grandfather, but
they want the country to shake him
because he shakes hands. The
democracy had better shake free
trade, shake their brains together,
take milk shake and shake Cleve-
land and they will feel better.

Kentucky's Boss Cattle Trade.

PARIS, KY, August 1.-The largest
cattle sale ever made in this state by
one man, was made yesterday by c..
Alexander, Cashier of the Northern
bank. He sold from his $4,000 acre
farm on the Bourbon and Fayette
county line, $500 head of fat cattle to
NJ. Kahn, of Cincinnati, for NJ. Gold
smith, of New York. They are all to
be shipped to London, England.

Not So.

According to contemporary firm
of printers in this city says that they
have received letter advising them
that the government printing Office at
this post is soliciting commercial
printing from the business men of San
Antonio and that it turned out the
work for the A. o. U. w. banquet at
Casino hall. The LIGHT has reason
to know that the former statement is
untrue, and as regards the latter,
while it is true that the government
printer did some work for the An
Gent Order of United Workingmen
he, as a member of the executive COM
mittee, did the work mostly free of
charge and in his own spare hours.
Thus this bug-bear which jealousy
has raised, is readily demolished.

Has French Chivalry Decayed

LONDON, August 1.-The North Ger

tor of customs and his wife were in

through Arnaville. The travellers, it
says, should remember this incident;
it proves that France is a savage
country.

THAT street paving project on Com
merce street is getting most thorough
ly cussed and discussed as political
dodge. The democrats are now doing
the kicking and charging that the
Germans of the city are under con-
tract to deliver the mayoralty of the
city into Callaghan' hands next cleo
ton. The LIGHT does not believe it,
and considers the charge libel upon
the judgment, good sense, and love of
decency so generally chara cteristic of
the Germans of this city. The Freie
Presse is no correct guage of German
opinion,

taking dead loads of interest in the

INDICATIONS are that this fall is to
see considerable fever on the coast of
Florida and on the eastern coast of the

will be consumed by our citizens, and
there will be little danger from fever
or cholera.

IT puzzles Barlow, of the Victoria
Advocate to understand the imper-
sonalities of discussion, hence its
comment upon the antagonism of the
friends of this city, as appeareth here
with:
1.-THE San Antonio papers wage bit
ter war with each other, and it is
done so nicely that the great white
outside world doesn't seem to realize
that it is war at all. The "knock down
and drag out" style has been aban-
doned, it would SEEM"
San Antonio journalism is civilized
and the bitterness of personal rancor
dies out. Principles not persons are
the subjects of discussion and passion
poles is fires in the GOODNESS of reason
and judgment.
THE Houston Times is one of the
Texas journals which has flung it's
bandanna on the geological tree and
tied it fast to the branches. 1t says, as
of old:
"The San Antonio LIGHT hurrahs
for the man with n grandfather"
Harrison's grandfather is about all
there is of the family worth hurrah-
ing over"
The Times is captious. If Harrison's
grandfather is all that there is worth
hurrahing over, why in the name of
Great Scott is the LIGHT to be criti-
,cised for selling upon the best thing,
according to the Times own judg-
ment, in the Harrison family. The
hurrah will come next November and
no question of grandfather.

CHARGED WITH FORGERY.
Harry Murray Wanted ny the
Oakland Authorities.

Harry Murray, now in Jail, ii allega-
tions concerning him be truthful, is Ger.
tainly versatile member OF the nimble.
fingered gentry. 1t is stated that Murray
came to Los Angeles about three months
ago under the assumed name of r. @.
King and secured employment as clerk,
but quit his position to accept like
Office at Pasadena. He had not long
been resident there before he was
caught burglarizing the room OF fellow
lodger. He got 100 days in jail for this
ohense from Justice Terry, OF Pasadena,
about ten days ago. Murray was incar-
cerated in the county strong-box and had
been there but an hour or two when De-
tectives Harris and Metzler identified
him as Harry Murray, man wanted
badly by the police authorities OF Oak
land on four charges OF forgery. Friday
last Detective Harris sent Chief Thomas.
of the Oakland police. full description
OF Murray. Word was received yester-
day that he is the wanted man. Unless
Sheriff Kays permits the Oaklanders to
take the man, he will have to serve out
his sentence OF 100 days before he can
be taken North for trial. Murray is a
good looking young fellow, an expert PEN
man and the last person in the world
who would be taken for the shrewd all
round "crook" lie certainly seems to be.
