AGENTS FOR THE LIGHT.
MONDAY. JANUARY, 20, 1889.

The Arkansas Pass Beacon sends
this CLEAN from its watch tower by
the sea:
1.-THE mayor md council of city,
are the men of all others, that should
be live and progressive business men.
Much depends upon the city authorl-
ties how fast the place advances. Let
the mayor and council clog the wheels
and at once the movement stops. San
Antonio, from appearances, suffers
from this, and her people should
awake to the facts"
Right you are, Mr.. Beacon. The
LIGHT is throwing its rays upon this
dark subject, and hopes to enlighten
the gloom. San Antonio voters should
cut out this warning of the Beacon
and paste it in their hats for reference
on the 18th day of next month.
THE Floresville Chronicle in its is
sue of the oath inst. dabbles most i'm
pertinently in the local affairs Of San
Antonio and attempts editorially to
influence the action Of voters in this
city. If the Floresville Chronicle is the
paid agent of the present city admin
istration it has descended as deeply
into the mud as the crosswalks of this
goodly city. If the Chronicle is mo-
paid for throwing mud at the Reform
club here, it is doing very dirty WORK
for no pay. The Chronicle says:
"The Young Mems Reform club, o
San Antonio, ought to disband o
change its name. 1t is failure as
stands
The Chronicle can not dictate tn
course to be pursued by the voters c
this city.
THE Gonzales Inquirer has as littl
use for "White caps" BLACK caps,
Regulators" "Bald Knobbers", an
all such gentry as has the LIGHT
The Inquirer says:
"The White caps seem to be holC
ing the day in almost every stat
They should be wiped from the taC
of the earth. and as little mercy show
them as their victims receive"
The LIGHT says amen! to Il
wiping. but will the Inquirer fav
the afflicted with sample of t.
wiping? What kind of towel won
the Inquirer recommend? Would
have it patont back action democr
towel that would wipe out color
crowd and leave the murderers
colored citizens aud Ku Klux to car
on their works, or would it tote Fl
and go it color-blind?

THE Dallas Times-Herald voices
the sentiment of Texas when it de-
clares that California has no monopo-
ly on weather. The Herald says:
"The open winter in the north has
greatly reduced the exodus to Cali
fornia, and our exchanges from that
state speak of the effect 1t has pro-
duced on all kinds of business. Call
fornia has not monopoly on climate
this year."
Texas is not dependent as is Cali
fornia upon an influx of winter visit
ors to keep up her business. This
city has felt the absence of q host OF
winter visitors as materially as any
city in the state, but our people are
doing business between showers all
the same. By the way, what has be-
come of the weather prophet crowd
who predicted such fearful weather
this winter from the breastbone of the
goose and the fur of the coon, otter
and SIGH? Has a just retribution
overtaken them or do they still cum
Der the earth?

Freeland tribune. (Freeland, Pa.) 1888-1921, 1889-11-14

An exchange goes for the obnoxious
system of "pufling" candidates for local
offices in the following sensible manner:
Hardly is one election over till prepa-
rations are made for the holding of an
other. The country Statesmen" are
now laying for the spring election. The
only prizes-but they are big prizes in
the eyes of the township people-to be
drawn are those of school director and
road supervisor. We have already re-
ceived several communications from can
didates for these offices urging their
claims. We decline to print any of
them for the reason that they are not
accompanied by the cash. 1t costs
money to set type, and the printers, as
class, are not over wealthy. AT the end
of every two weeks they look for their
pay and they get it. But we do not pro-
pose that our printers bills shall be in
creased solely to benefit lot of men
who want to fill public Office for private
gain. These candidates for public office
realize the power of the press, as is
shown in their anxiety to curry favor
with it, but at the same time they seem
to forget one fact, viz: that they are un-
grateful. They will take $50 to some
saloon In the nope OF propagatlng votes,
but never red cent to the newspapers.
Candidates cannot but consider them
selves in the same light as any other
class of business men, and why they ex-
pect the press to give them any more
free advertising than it gives to others is
something that we cannot understand.
The advertising rates of the TRIBUNE
may be known upon application and
local notices will be inserted at the rate
of ten cents per line. We cannot dis
criminate between legitimate business
men and candidates-eacho of whom are
in it for what they can get out of it-and
the latter must pay for their advertising
as well as the former
Freeland tribune. (Freeland, Pa.) 1888-1921, 1889-11-14
Aaron's Wedding Suit.

Parents are sometimes loath to re-
linquish their parental authority, even
when their sons and daughters are
men and women, and ought to be learn
ing to think and act for themselves,
says the Youths Companion. A tall,
awkward, and painfully diffident
young man of 21 or % years went into
a clothing store, accompanied by a
short, active, and keen-eyed little wo-
man, whose self-possession was per-
feet.
..Let us see some black suits of some
kind, something not too high, not yit
so cheap as to be good for nothing"
said the woman to the clerk.
"Yes, ma'am. Is the suit for this
young manP"
Yes. it's for him. We you any idea
bout what you want in the way of q
suit, AaronP"
"rd like one of them shiny black
SUITS" replied Aaron meekly.
"Well, l don't know" said the
mother, with a shake of her head.
"I'm doubtful bout them wearin' well,
an believe I'd better git you good
cashmere"
The clerk had led the way to a coun-
ter piled high with inexpensive black
suits, and the mother began: "How
do you like this, AaronP"
II don't know"
"Well, look at it, boy, and see
whether you think you'd like it."
81 guess so."
do you like this one any betterp'
Don't know as / do"
"Well, l want you to make up your
mind now, and not 60 to wshin' you'd
got something else as soon as you git
home"
The amusement of the clerk was in
creased when, after carefully examin-
ing suit after suit without coming to a
decision, the old lady said: You may
show me something leetle mite bet
tern any of these. | wouldn't be SO
pertckler, but it's his wcddin' suit I'm
gettin' an feel as though I'd like him
to look little halfway decent on
such an occasion. D'you think you'd
be satisfied to stand up in this one.
