AGENTS For THE LIGHT.
SATURDAY. MARCH. 2, | SO.

THE LIGHT acknowledges receipt
of Bulletin No. 4 from the a.griCuI-
tural experimental station of the
state in BrazOs county. The Bulletin
is devoted to "COtton Blight" and is
of great value to cotton growers in
the state, and is prepared by l.. II.
Pammel for the council.
THE state journals continue to urge
the passage of a decent libel law, but
it doth not yet appear that the law
will be forthcoming. The Wisconsin
law now before the legislature of that
state, presuppOses no malice on the
part of the publisher, and makes
malice matter Of proof on the part Of
complainant. Texas wants no less
than that.
THE democratic comments on Mr..
Harrison and his actions come with a
very poor grace Som those whose
stock in trade has been abuse of the
republican president elect, or that
meaner insinuatiOn which hints
what it dares not assert. 1t will be
time enough to assert that Mr., Har-
risOn is in leading strings when his
administration proves that fact, The
democracy will be ready enough to
damn after the event; they are little
previous in doing so beforehand.
THE Galveston News always SO
ready to get in thrust at the repub-
lican party says:
"The republican papers are very
anxious to see the last day of Presi-
dent Cleveland's authority. Their
party is eager to hold high carnival. !"
For the one republican journal that
has damned Cleveland since his de-
position there have been a score of
democratic ones to snarl at his heels.
and charge upon him the failure of
the party to maintain the confidence
of the country. There is neither good
feeling nor generosity in their criti-
cisms.
THE indignation of the business
men of this city over the failure of the
council to meet this month, thereby
endangering the charter, is very gen
eral. 1t goes for nothing however.
The mayor of this city seems to hold
the city as his own private establish
ment and that it is an imper Thence
for any man to NEEDLE Herewith
Such high-handed, arbitrariness was
never witnessed in any city of the
