ASKING TOO MUCH.

1t is asking too much to require that
San Antonio stand still and see the
procession move by, because some
ones privacy is going to be invaded
by the construction of transit lines.
The day is past for San Antonio to sit
on the coat tail of progress and cry
halt. Enterprises mooted in this city
demand for their successful prosecu-
ton Of increased means of communica-
ton between the depOts, plazas and
business center of this city and the
suburban districts. 1t is the business
of the common council to provide un-
der proper restrictions, for the loca-
ton of transit lines where they will
best serve the interests of the CITY,
and least disturb the resident popula-
ton. The interests of the whole must
dominate the interests of the part
The wishes of the few must always
give way to the needs of the many, or
no progress is possible. Recognition
of this fact is OF vital necessity, and
recognized it must be, or the end of
The city council is created to legislate
for the best interests of the
city, not a section of it, and
if moved by proper considerations of
representative responsibility, and
trust will consider itself bound to re-
gard above everything else the wants,
the real needs, the true necessities of
the city as whole, and provide for
them. The LIGHT has always favor
ed the increase of transit lines, the
extension and enlargement of those
already existing, and the creation of
new ones, because this increase and
extension is necessary to the develop
ment of the city. 1t is necessary to
bring into market eligible residence
property which will add hundreds
of thousands to our taxable values
every year, aud tens of thousands to
our municipal revenue. Increased
transit is necessary because our peo-
pie already suffer from lack of transit
lines in large sections of the citv.
where we'll populated neighborhoods
are entirely without a cheap transit
service. 1t is needed to connect our
people with the outlying sections
and open up to foreign capital some
avenue for investment, which would
give increased employment to labor
and so fill the months of ever in
creasing populations to the advan-
tage of every merchant and trades.
man in the city.
These are the general reasons WHY
the LIGHT favors building of transit
lines. The $3.50, 900 that would have
been expended in construction in this
city had the council given any ell.
cOuragement to proposals for rapid
transit would have been but the be.
ginning of large investments which
directly growing out of that enter
prise would soon have reached a mil
lion of cold cash laid out in this city.
The men who came here and waited
for months to see what disposition
the council would make of their petit
ton came here with money and thew
would have brought millions of i

investments of their friends would
have ceased. The LIGHT as rule
would not favor the entrance into the
heart of the city of any steam line,
but there is a necessity laid upon this
city just now to provide for the thou
sands who will visit the city this fall
some rapid and certain way of reach
ing the fair ground. If this can be
done without bringing the steam cars
into the heart of the city by all means
let it be done. If it cannot be so done
give us transportation by steam cars
rather than none at all.

JEFFERSON DAVIS and Lord VOL
sely are swapping ink scratches over
the question of England's offer of
arms and armament to the confederate
states during the late war for the dis
memberment of the union. No two
men on Gods green earth are better
fitted to indulge in such useless con-
tToversy. Could they be consigned to
some cavern of the cave jewellers, or
Ielegated to some ante-diluvian grove
so that the place would be in conso-
nance with the controversy it would
be more in accord with the eternal
fitness of things. AS it is live world
has little interest in dead issues
stirred over in the cold ashes of eX-
tinct fires by dead men who are by
some accident Of chance or irony of
fate still unburied.

PRIVATE advices from Washington
represent matters quiet on the surface
but moving towards the end of an eff
cient filling of all vacancies with a
view to the good of the public service
rather than with any special reference
to reward for party services. With
this condition of things there can be
no reasonable complaint on the part
of the democracy and the republican
certainly will make none. The dispO-
sition seems to be to make haste
slowly, particularly in the matter Of
southern appointments, and as the
policy of the past fifteen years has
made no impression on the solid
south, it is surely the part of wisdom
to wait the effect of the new order be-
fore any untriendly criticism is in
dulged in.
