w. H. WILLIAMS, special treasury
agent has been in Mexico inves-
tigating the importatiOns of mixed
ores into the United States. In re-
cent interview as reported in the
Globe Democrat he goes over the
ground of the complaints, the relations
Of the two countries, the trade that
has been built up and the railway in
terests involved in the solution of the
question and says:
81 am under the impression that
proper construction of the law as il
now stands, enforced by a thorough
system of inspection, as the law in
tends, would keep out nearly all the
really Objectionable ores. OF course
this would hurt American interests in
that country to some extent, but not
nearly so much as total exclusion of
all low-grade ores, and it seems to me
to offer the best remedy for the diff
Guilty. The MeXicans are very sensi-
tive on this point. They are begin
ming to take kindly to American
manufacturers and to encourage the
I'LL pOEGdJlOl Vi OuI pTOuuCGS InJO InaC
country, but if we exclude their ores
they would be almost sure to retaliate
in way that would do more injury to
the general public of this country than
loss of duty and the cutting off of the
competition in lead, which, under a
proper construction of the law would
be very little, would do no good"
The LIGHT has never understood
that anything else was ever desired,
either by the Mexican government or
the importers of ores, than that the
present laws should be reasonably
construed and faithfully executed.
MIR. Williams remarks are in line
with what this journal has always
contended should be the policy of the
government, and it is with no little
satisfaction that it reads 50 clear an
opinion from government expert as
to the situation. The senate's Judi
ciaTy committee are quite in accord
with what Mr.. Williams regards as
the best policy. The reciprocal ex-
changes across the Rio Grande are of
sufficient Importance to be considered
in this matter and they will not be
ost'sight of.

.ENT5 FOR THE LIGHT.
SATURDAY. JUNE u, 1899

THE Houston Age is evidently not
stuck on the free trade sand bar of
glorious memory. Referring to a con-
temporary's remark that mo one
should send away from home for
anything they could get in their own
town." the Age says:
Tell that to a free trade crank
and he will tell you that you are mis-
taken. That the best way to make a
community or town flourish is to buy
nothing at home that you can send
abroad for"
The Age is correct. You cannot
turn a free trade crank aud grind out
a president.

TRorTINo VERSUS RUNNING.

TROTTING VERSUS RUNNING.
There is some complaint made about
the division of purses in the forthcom-
ing races in this city on July 4th
to Sth, and the objection is that too
much money has been hung up for
trotting and pacing and not enough
for running events. The ground of
this objection does not seem to be well
taken. Over nine hundred dollars
have been offered for running events,
and this is certainly liberal. 1t is
true, that seven hundred dollars more
have been offered for trotting and
pacing than for running, and this is
as it should be. Every year the
trotting horse in America is
in greater demand and the
running horse in less demand
in the public uses to which they
are devoted. Driving instead of rid
ing is the rule and growing more gen.
eral every year. Gentlemen's road
sters are in demand. Horses that can
cover mile in three minutes or less |
on the road to buggy, are eagerly en-
guired after and the only way to get |
them is to make it an object to breed |
them, and trOtting races with liberal |
premiums is the very best way praC-
ticable to encourage such breeding.
The stallion trots which have occurred
in this country, aud the immense in
terest that has centered in them as
shown by the very large purses Of
tered and the general attendance of
hOrsemen from all sections. have done
more to encourage the breeders of trOt-
ting stock than any other thing. The
sire whose get shows most of his
own trOtting qualities and who as a
sire of successful trOtters has made a
record is the animal without price
to breeder of trotting stock. The
San Antonio Jockey club have done
right and acted wisely in putting
their trotting events in the fore
ground. Texas wants good roadsters,
good driving horses, horses for gen.
.lemen's use capable of covering to
wagon from ten to twelve miles an
lour without distress, and of squirting !!
/ mile on good road at three minute /
yait. Texas wants thousands OF such
lorses and she can secure them only
~ encouraging their breeding, and I
his liberal offer by the Jockey club
# this city of 81 ,675 in trotting purses /
S move in the right direction. AS il
he state becomes settled and the c
Dads improved driving will supplant
idiDg year by year, and it is highly
important that Texas raise her own
oadsters. Important because her
lOme raised stock will stand the eli !,
nate better and be less liable to dis
ase; important because the profits of
UGH stockraising should be kept at 8
ONE, within the state, and not dis Il
ributed broad. .

TIE revOking of certain saloon IL
cemses in this city unless new bond is
furnished has given rise to some con-
troversy! Had there been any COM
plants of the insufficiency of the
bonds furnished, the LIGHT would
have nothing to say. Let the bond
be heavy enough and the security
ample to cover all the ground. If
the LIGHT has correct information
however, it is not the sutficiency Of
the bond that j. called in question
but the peculiar relations that exist
between parties giving bonds and
their bOndsmen. These saloons re-
quired to give new bonds have been
heretofore furnished bonds by the
Lone Star and City breweries of this
city and it is asserted that the move
ment by which these bonds have
been refused is the outcome of objec-
tions made by foreign brewing COM
panies. 1t is most devoutly to be
wished that this is not true.
The breweries of this city are
certainly solvent. No valid OBJ
jections could be urged against accep-
ting them as sureties unless it would
be on the ground that in their corpor-
ate capacity they could not assume su-
retyship and this ground seems hardly
tenable, when as corporations they
can sue and be sued and be recovered
from. So long as the law is satisfied
of the perfect solvency and respOns.-
bility of the bond what right has it to
ca I'll over the relationship of the
bondholder to the man furnishing
bond. TO any attempt to increase the
validity of a saloon holders bond
within the fair meaning of the statute
there would be no objection. To dis
eliminate in accepting bond so as to
exclude those interested in the home
manufacture of beer thereby favOring
the foreign producer would certainly
provoke strong objections. Home in
situations are surely entitled to as
much consideration as foreign ones.

A NEW STYLE OF CARS.

The Northern Pacific has just received
twenty colonist sleepers from Barney, Smith
s. Co. that ase models Of beauty, convenience
and comfort, and contain mony smprove-
ments over the ordinary colonist sleeper,
or so-called tourist car, generally in use.
Each car has fourteen sections with gen
tlemen's toilet room in one end, and the
ladies' room, supplied with marble-toped
washstand and force pump, in the other.
In one end of the car is Baker freproof
heater, which heats the car by means of hot
water conducted through pipes. In the op-
posite end of the car is cooking ranke
surrounded by good kitchen facilities.
Opposite this range is o twenty gallon cooler
| for drinking water. also large tank hold
ing seventy gallons Of water for general use.
These cars are finished ir natural woods,
ash, maple and butternut,-beautifully
polished and at night are lighted up with
| eight Acme lamps exactly similar to those
in use on Pullman sleepers. The sections
are divided bp sliding head-boards, effecting
privacy not possible in the present style
| of cars where the sections are separated by
wire netting. An ingenious arrangement
| of the seats enables them to be extended Hat
or with head rests when prepared for bed
ding, and under each seat is box in which
can be stored bedding or small baggage.
In each section there is also provided q
movable table similar to those in use in
Pullman cars, which is extremely conven-
lent Tor many purposes. All cars are pro-
| vided with curtain rods.
Notwithstanding the fact that the North
ern Pacific employs porter to look after
these sleepers, ali holders Of second class
Montana and Pacific Coast tickets are al
lowed to use them free of charge. The
