Selling the Merchant.

The San Antonio Anarchist Society
have sent out number of old buns
for several days past, to visit some Of
the principal stores, who would select
a large lot of goods, pretending that
they wanted to buy, and would then
ask the clerk or proprietor how he
stood on the labor question, and then
walk out saying they would boycott
said merchant if he patronized this or
that person who they choose TO black
list. One of these pretenders, bor-
rowed some money from the treasurer
of his society, and was showing it in
several stores yesterday saying that
he was going to buy from only those
who would help them down the
bloated capitalist and labor oppressor.

IN THE Wayside Notes of the New
Orleans Daily City Item the LIGHT
finds the following, which is mani
testify so applicable to this city that it
is reproduced and commended to the
municipal council of San Antonio for
their prayerful consideration:
1T is general hope that the city
council will henceforward pursue the
most liberal and encouraging policy
in respect to privileges prayed tor by
new industrial projects. The bust
ness conditions and prospects of this
city demand thata enterprises which
will increase the opportunities for
wage earners should be fostered. The
labor pay rolls of New Orleans need
to be enhanced manifold in order to
assure the prosperity Of the cOmmu-
nifty as a whole and safeguard the
values of property"
When applications for rapid transit
franchises and such other projects as
are certain to benefit this city come
before the city fathers let them re-
member the above and do the thing
that is required of them.

likewise may work on q David B..

nOt-just yet, at all event is suggest a
Sam Randall boom, either. But even
as there are thousands of Texas dem
Ocrats who Will support Hill in pref
erence to Cleveland, so there are Just
as many who will, if the issue is made,
take Randall in preference to Cleve-
land
Where Randall has the call i'm this
open manner, in Rogers own state,
among Rogers own people, it does
seem that the cyclone which hit
Cleveland knocked out his bottle
holder as well. All the same the Day
thinks that no man can stand a show

congress should he desire one, and
the man who seeks TO down him will

EVEN the Ancient Free and Accept
ed are not exempt. The consistory of
the Cerneau branch of the Scottish
Rites has secured temporary injunc-
ton in the Eighteenth judicial dis
trict OF Iowa, restraining the grand
lodge of the Ancient Free and Accept
ed Masons Of Iowa from carrying into
effect an order of the late grand lodge,
which orders all members to leave
the Cerneau consistory of Iowa under
pain of expulsion. This is the first
time MasOns have carried their
troubles into court of law and the
fraternity will be greatly exercised
over the result. The permanent in
junction will be argued before the
October term of court. The iniunc-
ton is granted on the claim of the
consistOry that the grand lodge of
Iowa does not confer blue lodge de-
grees. nor the twenty-nine degrees of
the Scottish rite, and therefore has no
Jurisdiction.
