WHILE THE CLOUDS GO BY.

Telegraph reports of nominations
and senate confirmation of candidates
at Washington do not confirm the i'm
preston that only in very exceptional
cases will the filling of offices in the
solid southern states be taken up
until the more tangible work of look
ing after the republican states of the
north is attended to. AS will be seen
by the report, yesterdays nominations
include several southern appoint
ments, and there does not seem to be
any real reason for the impression so
generally prevalent that those repub-
lican states which aided in the cleo
ton of president will be first served
while those who did nothing will cool
their heels in the an te-chamber.
Vacancies now existing will doubtless
first be filled, whether in the north or
in the south, after that no doubt the
removals from office will depend upon
the character of the present in
cumbent and the character of
the service that they have
rendered. There is every reason to
conclude, however, that this admins
tration intends to give republicans a
show for the offices and will not &C
cept the proposition of Mr.. Cleveland
to commence the rigid enforcement of
lnn n plnsa
four years democratic term, the key
note OF which has been, turn republl-
can offlce-hOlders out. The situation is
not sucn as to cause good repu bllcans
IN Texas any cause for worry. There
are reasons for believing that care
will be exercised i'm the election OF
and only those appolnt-
ed to office who will reflect credit upon
the Service. This is all the LIGHT has
ever asked, a good civil service. That
IS Service that recognizing the hrst
claim of republicanism, recognizes
also the distinction between good Of
ficials and bad and considers the
good of the public service before the
necessities of party. There is no reason
why republicans should be left out in
the cold by any such arrangement.
A good men can be found in the re-
publican party, except, perhaps, in
very isolated districts, as can be
found among the democrats to fill the
existing offices of the country accept
ably To the public service. Where
they can not and a democratic office
holder IS necessary to the efficiency
Of the service, there will be no
umbling on the part of good repub-
Leans at a democratic appointment.
The canards floating around loose
what the president has
said to Gen. Longstreet or any other
man can be puI down to the credit of
the imaginative correspondent. Gen.
Harrison is not talking whole |
sale concerning appointments, not if
the court knows itself.

THE Houston Herald discourses as
follows concerning the drainage of
Memphis:
Drainage is what has dragged
Memphis out of the depths and caused
$5,O00,OO of foreign capital to be in
vested there within the past twelve
months. Let us profit by the lesson
and attend to drainage first, and a
system of sewerage will speedily fol-
low.n
Memphis was most peculiarly stu
ated before the great epidemic, and
the bayou behind the city was con-
verted into stagnant cesspool, which
had to be drained in order to save the
city. But the sewerage came in with
the draining, and draining alone
would not have answered. A city
may have drainage and no sewerage,
but it cannot have sewerage without
drainage. The city that provides for
her drainage only makes a mistake.
San Antonio is making that mistake,
or is on the eve of making it, and
every dollar that is spent in paving
without sewers and drains, must be
discounted at least so per cent when
in the wisdom of the future the sew
erage mains are put in. San Antonio
can become the healthiest city on top
of ground by a good sewerage system,
not otherwise.

AGENTS FOR THE LIGHT.
WEDNESDAY, MARCH. 20, 1889.

THE Waco Day endorses the posi-
ton taken by the LIGHT on the ques-
ton of road work as an eXaction, and
says:
1.-THE San Antonio LIGHT is right in
saying that it is a grieVOus burden on
the poor man to be required to work
five days in the year on the public
roads, while the richest man in the
land pays no more On that score. The
road law ought to be remOdeled. 1t is
a relic of feudal times, dating back to
the days when the PharaOhs of
Egypt called out the hands" to build
the pyramids"
The LIGHT welcomes the aid Of the
Day in its criticisms upon such par
tial and vicious legislation, but re-
grets that there is little proba bility of
the obnoxious legislation being re-
pealed. The Solons of this state hav e
a decided penchant for running into
ruts, and once in, it seems that moth
ing short of an earthquake can turn
them aside.

THE personnel of the Samoan confer
ence has been made up and it is
somewhat to be regretted that Ben
jamin F. Butler has not been APP
pointed as at first intimated. Ben
Butler is not much of a republican
but he is a red hot American and in
his way would have made it lively
for Bismarck's crowd. 1t is the
fashion to sneer at "Ben" but when
it comes to deep and all pervading
national feeling, it can be truly said
that Ben Butler is the peer of any
man in the country. Not only is he
intensely American but no one has
yet accused him of lacking brains,
and as commissioner to adjust mat
tiers with Germany he would have
been in his element. He is we'll read
in International law, he has a very
clear knowledge of our treaty rela-
tons and an intense jealousy for the
honor of the stars and stripes. He
could safely have been entrusted
with the duties of commissioner
but he was not. The appointment of
John A. KassOn is safe appointment
and will give satisfaction in the Mis-
siSsippi valley where his abilities are
so well known and so fully recOg-
niZed.

FIGHT AT FUNERAL.-There was q
strange and startling scene at funeral at
Burlington, n. j., on Tuesday. Sometime
ago William 81. Bradley, communicate OF
st. Pau's R. c. Church, joined Crusaders
Castle, knights of the Golden Eagle. lie
was informed that he had broken the laws
of his church, and that he must give up
either the secret order or the church. lie
chose to relipquish the latter. On Sunday
last Bradley died, and at his request ar
rsngements were made for the funeral to
take place from St. Mary's P. E. Church,
with the Golden Eagles accompanying the
remains. AS the casket was being borne
into the church Tuesday afternoon by the
pail bearers, who were members of the
Order, number of Bradley's friends and
relatives, who are devout Catholics, broke
from the procession, seized the handles o.
the casket, and declared that the body
should not enter the church. There was 8
brief struggle for possession OF the coffin
but the palI-bearers. assisted by other mem
bers of the Golden Eagle, succeeded IL
getting it inside the edifce, when the con
tention ceased.

BIG GAME-Accoriiug to the administra-
tion report of Java recently laid before the
Dutch chambers portions of that island are
being depopulated through tigers. In 1882
the population of village in the southwest
of the Bantam provinces was removed and
transferred to an island of the coast in con-
sequence of the trouble caused to the people
BY tigers. These animals have now become
an intolerable pest in parts OF the same pro
vince. The total population is about 6OO,-
coo, and in 1887 sixty-one were Killed by
tigers, and in consequence OF the dread ex.
listing among the people it he's been proposed
to deport the inhabitants Of the villages
most threatened to other parts Of the coun.
try where tigers are not so common, and
where they can pursue their agricultural oc-
equations with greater degree of security.
At present they fear to go anywhere near
the borders of the forest. The people at
present seem disincllnsd, or they lack the
meaps ard courage 10 attack and destroy
their enemy, although considerable rewards
are offered By government for the destruc:.
tion of beasts OF prey In 1883 the reward
for killing g royal tiger was raised to 200
florins 1t appears also that the immunity
of the tiger is in part due to superstition, for
it is considered wrong to kill one unless ne
attacks first or otherwise does injury.
Moreover, guns were always very rare In
this particular district, and, since rising q
few years ago, have been taken away by the
authorities atogether-London Times.

Sad Situations.

Irememker bsing taken hy my mother
when I was chia to see ii pCor woman
who was dying of q cancer. The disease
was eating its way to vital part apd her
doctor had given her month as her utmost
limit of life She was preparing for her
end in a way that seemed practical and pro-
sale enough, but that struck me as pathetic
10 Its self-forgetfalness. She was sitting up
in bed, with baske: beside her, finishing
up the family mending, showing her eldest
daughter-on whose thirteen-year old shout
deis the burden Of household care was soon
to fall-how to fell down seams in tee little
brothers. knee patches and how to darn the
heel of fathers sock so that he would never
feel the difference. She had impressed
upon the girl how to make her fathers fa
vorite potato pone, how 10 manage her
Young sister when she got into the sulks,
what to do for her father when he had bis
periodical fit of cramps-and everything
else she could think of that would insure
comfort in the humble home she was leev-
ing. She had ell the work planned which
she would do during the short span of life
that was given to her. Her burial clothes
were folded away In drawer with sweet
basil leaves among them. l was reminded
of the incident by reading in paper re
