An Important Meeting.

Mr.. Albert Maverick, the chairman Of
the soliciting committee for the north
west railroad has called q meeting at
4;30 O'Clock this afternoon at the
Maverick land Office, where it will be
decided what course shall be pursued
to secure the railroad which has been
under discussion since the fret Of the
year. The advantages of this line have
been presented many times in the LIGHT
and our readers are familiar with the
arguments In it's favor. No opposition
has ever been raised to the giving Of the
bonus asked and the universal opinion Is
In it's favor. A canvass any time during
the last three months would have been
successful. The matter has merely
been allowed to drop out of sight. Now
is the time for San Antonio to reach out
for the future trade of the Panhandle.

That Ordinance.

The city council has passed an ordi-
nance prohibiting evening market on
Military plaza. With no market and the
prospective pile Of rock and building
material in the construction OF the new
city hall, there lie nothing to induce peo-
pie to 90 to the plaza. 1t looks to man
up a tree as though the Little Red gro
Gerry could not afford to pay 800 q
month rent for store on a plaza In that
condition, therefore they will move back
