MINISTER'S In COUNCIL.
They Deplore the Influence of the
Sunday Press-Proceedings OF
the Texas Synod.

The Presbyterian Synod met and Or
ganized last night and proceeded to bus
mess this morning at $3.50. The Synod
was opened with prayer, by JAS. III. Wig
gin, moderator, M. Z. Hutton, reading
clerk, T. c. Smith, temporary clerk.
About 60 ministers and elders were pres
ent. The business of the day was COM
menced by reading reports from the va
rious PreSbyteries of Eastern, Central,
Northern and Western Texas on proposed
changes of presbytery boundary lines.
A communication was read from Dallas
presbytery acceptingGainesville's offer of
$50, 900 in cash and ten acres of ground
and adding $4,000 from the presbytery
fund to establish a female college at
Gainesville to be controlled by
and known as the Synodical female COL
lege of Texas. The report was referred to
Committee. Committees were appointed
to prepare memorials for M. M. Hooper,
of Paris Presbytery, deceased September
18th, and A. b. Sitlman, of East Texas
PreSbytery. DIR. Scott, of Galveston,
Elder A. B. Cullen and Rev. c. L. Ewing,
of Paris, were excused from attendance,
owing to illness in their families and con-
gregation. DR.. Smoot created ripple OF
merriment by his objections to have the
ministers bearing these excuses reading
them from their seats, insisting that
reading clerk had been elected" Reports
from churches in various parts of the
state were read on the progress made,
and were very cheering, large increase
in membership and interest in religion
being the burden of most of the reports.
A report from the Paris Presbytery
''deplores the influence of Sunday news
papers"
The synod adjourned at noon to resume
its laborS this evening. { @ u
The difficulty the LIGHT reporter met
with in obtaining information of the
synod's proceedings more in detail would
indicate that a morning paper had been
selected as the official organ of the synod,
as the various communications when read
by the clerk were passed over to its repre-
sentative and were not passed along, as is
usual when papers are handed repreSen-
tatives of the press for publication. We
succeeded, Notwithstanding our entire ig
noranee of synodic proceedings,in getting

A Street Car Fight,

An encounter between Conductor
Nuckolls, of the red street car line,
and Lawyer John Copeland last
night, resulted in broken heads for
both, and an interview of a financial
nature with his honor, the mayor. 1t
seems that Copeland had paid ten
cents for fare, as is usual after q GER
tain hour at night, and as there was
some delay he wanted his money
returned to him proposing to walk,
This Conductor Nuckolls refused to
do, when Copeland cursed him.
Nuckolls' response was to smash
Copeland's head with brake handle.
Copeland retallated in kind with
loaded cane, when both sought the
services of a surgeon. DR.. Somerville
says the wounds are not dangerous.
ANOTHER VERSION.
Mr.. J. II. Copeland told a LIGHT
man this morning that the Express
account of last nights affair
with Mr.. B. Sinner, himself
and the street car conductor
was full of falsehoods. He say
that Mr.. Sinner and himself had got
ten on the car and rode q little dis
tance when it ran off the track. Mr..
Sinner asked for the return Of his
money, saying that he would rather
walk than wait all night. Some
words passed between the two, when
the conductor struck both Sinner and
Copeland over the head with a brake
handle. Both of them thereupon
went for the driver. Mr.. Copeland
was upon the streets this morning
and sports no cash on his forehead.
The above is his version of the
affair which he requests being given
He characterizes the morning paper's
accounted the affair as maliciously
false.

PARAGRAPHS.

The republicans are assured of the
control OF the United States senate
for years to come, and If the voters of
the country do their whole duty the
party will also continue to control the
house of representatives.
~
The good results of the Mckinley
tariff bill are already apparent. Aus
tria, Germany and Spain are tum-
bling over each other, so to speak, in
their efforts to secure reciprocity
treaties with the United States. Re-
publican legislation always tells.
~
Word has been passed along the
democratic lines, south of the Poto-
mac, to count out every republican
elected to Congress. If the orders
are carried out 1t will certainly be
the last time that votes are SO wiped
out in any section of this country.
~
OF course the Mckinley tariff law
was intended to be. The money we
have been paying English manufac-
turers will hereafter be kept at home
to pay American labor.
If the republicans are defeated in
their efforts to retain control OF the
house of representatives it will be the
fault of those republicans who sulk,
for one or another cause, and OF those
who are 30 confident that the party
will win that they do not recognize
the necessity for working and voting
for its candidate.
-
o. 1t has been estimated that the I'M
necessary roll calls of the house
caused by democratic filibustering
during the past session of congress
cost the taxpayers of the country
$S5, 1000.
~
The present administration has, in
nineteen months paid sos, 7l4.4l0 on
the national debt. In four years the
democrats paid only S34l 1856, $50. If
the present ratio Is maintained to the
end of President Harrison's admins
tration, and there is no reason for
dou biting its continuance, the amount
paid will reach the enormous amount
of $519, $780, $50, and four years more of
republican control, from March 4;1S93.
would free the country of its national
debt.
~
In anticipation OF his voyage up Salt
River in 1872, Mr. Cleveland has bought
a yacht.
~.
The republican party stands for
one thing In every state in the union.
The democratic party stands for any
thing that promises to gain a few
votes anywhere, it sends documents
and speeches into one state that il
does not dare to send into another.
European retaliation OH account of
the Mckinley tariff law seems to be
causing some of the democratic edit
ors of the country great trouble. Just
why, we cannot see. How can they
hurt us? We could get along if there
was never another dollars worth of
European goods landed in this coun-
try, in fact many of our profoundest
thinkers say we should be greatly
benefited, but how could Europe get
along without our wheat? Europe is
compelled to buy our grain and other
food products, while we can easily do
without everything we buy from Eu-
rope. Nothing alarming in the situa-
ton is there.
