MUST PAY.

JOSEPH BERT SMILEY.
Oh, this world was so constructed
That the willy ways of sin
With our likings and our pleasures
Are most always creeping in;
And there are along LIES pathway.
Those attractive forms of vice
Which are very, very wicked.
But are very. very nice.
When old Adam ate the apple
Which the devil fixed for him,
Plunging future generations
In a roaring sea of sin,
He'd have saved deal of trouble
By resisting if he could.
But he ate this wicked apple,
And I'll bet it tasted good.
Now, in walking through lifes valley
In the straight and narrow way,
You must pay for all the comforts
That you call for. day by day.
You must pay in goods and money
For subsistence given you,
You must pay in honest labor.
OF the best that you can do.
Thus you pay. along the pathway,
For the things that please your sight.
Thus you pay for food and clothing,
And whstever's just and right;
But for all forbidden apples
You will find you have to pay
With very different coinage.
In q varv difforont wav
There are lots of forms of pleasure.
And of all the grades of vice,
Which are more or less attractive,
And, in fact, are very nice.
They're mighty sight more pleasant
Than the straight and narrow way,
Were it not for the conditions
OF the bill you have to pay.
You may think that circumstances
Will excuse you from the blame,
But for every least transgression
You must settle, all the same.
So whenever with your conscience
You at fox-aDd.geese would play,
You may just as we'll remember
That you have the bill to pay.
You must pay, in fullest measure.
For your slips of every sort.
You must pay with aching temples
And a weary, aching heart.
So it's we'll to just remember
In your living, day by day.
That for every serpent's apple
You have got the bill to pay.

To the Republican Voters of San
Antonio and Bexar County.

IN
A strenuous effort is being made by
political trickSterS and office holders to
throttle the liberty and voice of the free
and independent citizens of this city and
county. In accordance with an agreement
made several weeks ago, an announce
ment is to be made by a few So-called
republicans that this is not the proper
time for organization or a repub-
lican county ticket. With the consent of
the executive committee elected at the
county conventions held at Mission Gar
den on Saturday, August 30, 1890, | pro-
posed to Mr.. H. Terrell that | would re-
linquiSh my claim as chairman of the ex-
ecutive committee if he would make a
call for county convention and there oy
afford an opportunity for united action.
The result is a meeting of Self-cOnSti-
tuted committee who decide not to call a
convention, etc,
Now, therefore, by virtue of authority
in me vested by the Republican county
convention, | respectfully request that
the chairmen elected at said convention
call a meeting at their respective pre-
cinctS or voting places on Tuesday, Sep
TENDER %, 1890. at $50 p. m, in city and
country precincts will make call for same
day and date at hour to suit their con-
venience, TO select delegates for a Repub-
lican county convention, to be held at
Mission garden. in this city, at 10 o'clock
a. m, on Saturday, September 81, 1890.

The True Irish Shamrock.

In Ireland only one shamrock il
known, says the American Notes and
Queries. 1t is an indigenous species
of clover, which trails along the
ground among the grass in meadows.
The trefoil leaves are not more than
one fourth the size of the smallest
clover 1 have seen in America, and
are pure green in color, without any
of the shading of white and pink
clovers. The creeping stem is hard
and fibrous, and is difficult to dis
lodge from the earth. On St. Pat
rick's Day the true shamrock has to
be searched out among the grass, for,
though comparatively plentiful at
that season, it grows close TO the
ground. Later it bears tiny"whitey-
brown" blossom. The information
that shamrakh is the Arabic word for
trefoil may be of service to those in
terested IN the origin Of the Irish
race. The word could have been in.
troduced by the Milesians, or it may
furnish an argument in support of
the contention that one of the lost
ten tribes of Israel settled in Ireland,
which has been revived by the pub.

THE Houston Weekly Tribune has
grivance, real or farcied, against
the republican journals of the state
which it accuses of jealousy, and
charges the LIGHT, IN general terms,
with crediting to democratic journals
matter originally appearing in the
Tribune. The LIGHT has certainly
not intended to rub its brush harshly
over any sore spot on the little Hous-
ton boys head, and If the Tribune
will be more specific some knowledge
of the offence charged may be OBJ
tanned. AS it is, the LIGHT has no
more knowledge, idea or conception of
what the Tribune has in mind than it
has of any other unknown thing.
This journal always gives credit to
the paper from which it's extracts are
taken, and if it is jealous of its Hous-
ton neighbor does not know it, and
can hardly believe that it is. Among
the five hundred and more exchanges
received in the course of a week it
may be that an item originally APP
pearlng in the Tribune and copied In
some other journal without credit was
first seen in the latter. For this, if it
be any balm to the Tribune, the
LIGHT will say, mea culpa, non con-
stat.

Northumberland RAIKEs is
one of the meanest men in England.
Not content with refusing to hes r
grievances from postmen and dis
charging all complainants, he follows
up these discharged men and uses his
influence as postmaster-general with
all the employment agencies to pre-
vent these poor discharged men from
securing employment. The milk of
human kindness in such a man is
curdled worse than the goats milk in
a wandering dervishes' skin bag after
a weeks journey through the Sahara.

Thurman's Speech.

At the conclusion of the banquet, Chair
man Lenz, of the Thurman club, made
brief speech introducing the toast master
Congressman Outhwaite. When Mr..
Outhwaite delivered a brief eulogy of
Judge Thurman, the guests rose TO their
feet again and the scene Of wild enthu-
siasm was one that would have swelIed
with pride the heart of any human being
1t was five minutes before the ovation sub
sided sufficiently to enable Judge Thur
man to respond.
Judge Thurman responded to the toast
''our guests" He said IN the beginning
that he was not here tonight to make an
elaborate speech. He was here to express
his heartfelt appreciation of the honor

thank with his whole soul his neighbors,

for their mark of friendship and esteem.

WORLDS FAIR COMMITTEE.
Commissioner Dcyosng is Opposed to the
Double site.

CHICAGO, Nov. 1S.-The national
worlds fair commission assembled again
this afternoon. The report Of the COM
mittee on classification as completed was
laid before it. The site matter soon came
to the front Mr.. Mercer, Of Wyoming,
offering a resolution to the effect that only
the fine arts building be allowed on the
lake front. Under resolution previously
adopted, evidently having in view the pre-
vention of trouble, this resolution went to
the building committee. Mr. Deyoung
of California then got up, however, and
offered a preamble and resolution setting
forth that the double site was not agree
able to the Judgment and business sense
Of the world; that the commission had
been imposed upon by the misrepresenta-
tiOns on the part of the Chicago local
directory in regard to the use of the lake
front, etc, and while they have Temporal
rily rescinded the action, the commission
feels that they may be imposed on
again; therefore, the action Of the
commission in accepting the various
sites rendered them be rescinded and the
board of directors be requested to inn
mediately furnish the commission with a
site where the exposition can be held as
one exhibit. This started quite squab-
bic. Deyoung refused to let the resolution
be skelved in the committee. Finally 1t
was ordered printed for consideration to-
morrow. The hopes are expressed among
the commissioners that the site matter be
settled without further trouble.
