first instruction to the members of his

Gratis in their departments with re-
publicans in thirty days. The prudent
democratic officeholder who owns a

it without an additional hint"
Gen. Lew. Wallace, in all proba-
bility knows more of "Ben Hur" than
he does about Harrison cabinet. At

ocratic office-holders to take this as a
notice to quit thirty days after March

AGENTS FOR THE LIGHT
ART ASSOCIATION.

The work of the Art association of
this city has grown quietly, and the
association has acquired confidence
from experience without making any
great parade of its work. 1t is now
thought best to organize a permanent
association reaching out into the
whole state for its membership, and
centralizing its efforts at this point,
where the art school has been sue
cessfully conducted for the past two
years. The LIGHT can be counted
upon to forward any movement tend
ing to build up an art organization in
this city upon stable and practical
BILE foundation. 1t stands for the ed
ucation and development of all refin-
ing and elevating forces, and counts
the artistic forces among the very
foremost of all as general educator.
DALLAS crows Justify to keep up her
courage as she reads the school re-
ports and population returns of San
Antonio, by which her claims to the
title of first city are disproved and
keels over on the other tack as fol
lows:
dallas is justly entitled to the title
of the leading city of Texas. Dallas
Outgrew her old charter and begun
work on new one, and Fort Worth,
Waco and San Antonio followed. Dali
las built several suburban rapid tran
off rni lNxynX fol h1yS 20 10, -
and Fort Worth. Dallas asked the
legislature to make two judicial dis
tricts out of the one in the county in
sufficient to transact the business; San
Antonio follows with like petition to
the legislature. Galveston doesn't
even try to keep up"
Dallas always was good at getting
legislative concessions; San Antonio
has not got her hand in yet. She
generally puts her hand in her poke
for what she wants and pays spot
cash.
THE city council having very i'm
pOrtant election matters to attend to,
matters affecting their private inter
ests and desiring to run their candi-
dacy on the Joey Bagstock plan, are
keeping out of the way of a council
session. The LIGHT does not COM
plain, only cites attention to the mat
ter as a mere item of news. Had no
session of council been held for a year
the city would not have suffered, nor
known the difference only as the
newspapers recorded the fact as a
piece OF Alamo City history.

1MSINCE when has it become the rule
in America for foreign merchants to
take hand in the making or unmak
ing of national cabinets for this gov
eminent? 1t certainly was not heard
of until the present pro-English ad-
ministration at Washington took the
helm of the old ship of state to steer the
craft into British waters. Concerning
a rumored concert of action among
New York, Boston and Philadelphia
merchants to keep James G.. Blaine
out of the cabinet, the New York
World says:
Capitalists having foreign interests
are understood to be acting in concert
with the merchants mentioned. They
claim that Blaine, as secretary of
state, would unsettle their business,
and point to his South American poll
cy while member of Garfield's and
Arthur's cabinets to sustain their
position"
This impertinent obtrusion of Brit
ish merchants should receive fitting
rebuke, and none could be more sting
ingly administered than the prompt
appointment of Mr.. Blaine as secre-
tary of state. English John h as been
decidedly too previous in America n
affairs during the past four years, and
it is high time that a change came
over the spirit of his dream.
