against any member ofthe council being
in any way. shape or manner, directly
or indirectly, interested in any financial
dealings with the city as contractor or
furnisher Of city supplies? Not that
these things do make any difference, but
the workings Of the laws Of coincidence
are so interesting a study that the father
of his people might feel Induced 10
grant them opportunities for pursuing
such studies. Is 1t confidence that the
pliantness or otherwise Of city officials,
street commissioner and engineers for
instance, seems to gauge the curtailment
or the enlargement of the powers that the
paternal head of the city sees fit to in
vest them with? Again, what revolu.
ton has the father of the municipality
wrought in the usually accepted ideas OF
civil engineering. The potency of his
municipal mind has brought in an en-
tirely new order, and plows, shovels and
scrapers are decreed to have superseded
the use Of compass levels and theodolits
in the engineers department. One
wonders here, also, is 1t a mere coin
cidence that these plows and scrapers 30
powerless for good or evil are in the
hands of men whose employer thinks
more of the needs Of the city streets, az
commissioner, than of the votes required
to carry q municipal election; and is 1t
mere coincidence that by revolutioniz-
ing the implements OF the engineering
department change might possibly be
effected, say year hence. in the morale
OF the force whose hands take up the
shovel and the scraper? There Is food
for reflection in the message of his honor
tine mayor. Let the citizens OF San An
tonic read between the lines. Let them
understand the drift OF munich
pal matters, which appearing 80
natural upon the surface cover up a
deep design to perpetuate the present
most unsatisfactory condition Of NUM-
cipal affairs. Let them understand to
the full how this city is in the hands Of
one man, no more fit to govern this mu-
nicipality than any child Of ten years
old. A man who knows no law but his
own will and seems to desire the per-
petuation of his own power above every
thing else. A man who lgnorantly or
knowingly arranges all the movements
of this municipality to suit the advance
ment of his own purposes and his own
interests. City improvements voted by
the council are carried out or not as
suits his will and convenience. Bonds
voted by the city for specific purpose
are issued or not issued as suits his pleas
ure. Municipal officials are handicapped
In their work or their powers enlarged to
suit his own ends. The money expended
on streets and other improvements wsl-
lows up the revenues, but the work done
is subject TO universal execratiOn. All
these things have the people Of this
Balaam ridden corporation suffered and
do still suffer with no prospect of relief.
The best man the city council ever had
In it has been driven from place and the
cry goes up from a suffering people,
How long, o Lord. How long.

The Bastrop Advertiser scents libel
upon the good people OF Texas in the
utterances of the LIGHT anent the Whar-
ton county outrages, and delivers itself,
as follows:
San Antonio LIGHT devotes a column
editorial headed "Only Niger" to
the recent outrage upon colored citizens,
at Spanish Camp. in Wharton county.
That estimsbe journal says" The LIGHT
has waited patiently and in silence for a
week to give democratic journals an
opportunity to do a manly and honora-
BILE thing in denOuncing the outrage,
etc' The LIGHT strives to convey the
impression that the lives of colored peO-
plo are not respected in Texas, than
which no grosse- and more malignant
libel could be thought or written.
The LIGHT merely asks the refutation
of its statement, as contained in the Adj
vertiser's quotation from it's columns.
Prove the statement false by trotting
out the democratic denunoiation which
the LIGHT has failed to see and the LIGHT
will acknowledge is error, but not until
then.

THE Galveston Evening Tribune,
speaking of the natural advantages, time
and good luck which attend this oity.
says:
"But all three combined will not' be
able to rescue 1t from the grip of Cen
eral Apathy. With its departing wool
trade falls the last pillar of its departed
glory, and while it may retain place on
the map Of the state for some years to
come il will only attract attention be-
cause of its old missions and the su-
periOr excellence OF Its tamales."
The wish OF the Tribune is no doubt
father to the thought, buff wishes were
horses even beggars could ride. The old
Alamo city is far from being handed
over to the rule of General Apathy, as
Galveston will find out before she cor
rails the wool trade Of western Texas.

The later reports from the blizzard
show that the loss Of life and suffering
have been great, but for some reason.
though the blizzard was bad enough
here. yet we do not note single loss
of life IN the north Red River valley.
y few fatalities occurred OIL the line
of the Northern Pacific, but the ma.
jority of eases were within II radius
of one hundred miles of Yankton.
Certainly it is remarkable that there
were not some lives lost in this vicini.
ty; though the blizzard was perhaps
not quite 80 violent us further south,
yet it was hard enough to overwllelnl

any length of time.
