UNCLE DANIEL of the Houston Age
counters upon the Times of this city
aneBt its tariff principles and declala-
ton. as follows: "The San Antonio
Times thinks the tariff on everything
should be reduced 70 a revenue basis and
that the wool tariff lie about on that basis
now. The Times lives in wool country
and has wool constituency, and 1t,
very reasonably, does not want the
wool producing industry OF its section
destroyed. But IL IL not very liberal in
the fines to want to have its own in
dustrial interests protected. and all
other industrial interCsts destroyed"

ment went up like a rocket and came

If THE ink singers Of the suburban
towns OF Texas did not air their stagnant
wits enthusiastically at the expense Cf
this city they would stagnate. These
Would-be wits do not sense the fact that
spasms OF virtue which seem perfectly
natural and appropriate in rural COM
munities are impraOtioab!e in large CEN
tiers Of population aud in mixed COM
munities. San Antonio has as much
mixed population as any town of ia
size in the United States. II is utterly
useless to expect that any very general
agreement should be found upon cues
lions OF morals. Those general laws
regarding property rights and personal
security, which all accept as necessary
to the welI-being Of community are as
we'll observed in this city as in any city
OF its class. The laws against gambling
are not enforced because these laws are
considered here an attempt to regulate
those personal habits which do not in
terfere with other peoples rights and
privileges. These laws against gsmb-
ling are only dead letters in all cities Of
any magnitude, AID 1t is unjust and un-
generous to make their non-en.Orcement
cause Of perpetual attack upon the
moral character of this city.

The Gonzales Inquirer makes an I'M
necessary kick against the Southwest
Texas immigration association in the
following editorial:
There Is nothing small about the
Southwest Texas immigration RssOCia-
tion, the salary OF the secretary not eX-
CPpted. lie gets twenty-fOur hundred
dollars per ycsT. 1t is outrageous, to say
the least. Big salaries and lavish eX-
peudlture of money, will do more to re-
tard the Interest 10 the matter Than any
thing, as a great many urge anyway
that II is Only a scheme TO bleed the
country By few sharpCrs. There Is q
right and 3 wrong way Of Doing things,
and II Is for those that have the matter
In hand to be prudent and CautiOuR, 9th
erwise the movement might act ss a
boomerang.
II the Gonzales Inquirer knows where
q 50 900 man can be secured for ST 200,
be will confer a favor upon the commit
tee by opening correspondence at
once. The difficulty is in finding man,
at any price, who is thoroughly cOmpe-
tent to discharge efficiently the duties
of the seOretsryship of such an assOoia-
ton. The combination of qualities
needed in the makeup Of the proper in
diyidual Is very difficult indeed to find.
Nothing but experiment can determine
this undetermined matter. The execu-
tive committee of this Southwestern
Texas association believe that they have
secured the right man for the position.
II they have, they are exceedingly fOrtu-
nate in securing his services for the sum
OF $500 per month. The man who can
not carry forward successfully the work
OF the association would be dear at any
price. The man who can successfully
carry out the work proposed by the
South west Texas Immigration assoca.

cial qualifications.
