THE Fort Worth Gazette is in for q
course of sprouts at the hands Of the
Sand Bar Tribune, for the Gazette was
injudicious enough to remark in a
recent issue that:
"Velasco Is the first port In Tex as
to admit one of the new whaleback
steamers. 1t is to be hoped that 1t
will have easier sailing than the devil
fish which rode into Galveston har-
Dor two or three years ago. 1t re-
quired several days for the big fish to
find his way back to sea again."
The "whale-back" will get out all
right. This is but the beginning of
better things for Texas. She has
been kept back a quarter of a century
because she had no ports into which
deep draught steamers could come.
OF course it is all wrong to rejoice at
any good to Texas which does not
bring cash into the Galveston Golfers
and the Tribune will howl as in duty
bound, but the inevitable is that
which must surely come and, COM
ing, must per force be borne. Deep
water outside of Galveston is the
inevitable.

MANUAL SCHOOLS DEMANDED.

The manual training schools of this
. country have always been success
and wherever introduced they have
always been retained. This fact alone
is no light commendation. America
with her practical ideas OF life should
give emphasis and expression to more
prectical ideas of education. The in
dustrlal or manual system is the only
efficient system for the public. The
state and national schools of all char
acters. shonld embody the prIncipl es
of manual training in order to make
them efficient and practically qualify
their students for a successful career.
The agricultural and mechanical col =
lege is step in the right direction,
and may lead to something more gen.
ersI of the industrial school class.
Every city of at least 10000 popula.
ton shodld have one manual school
where practical knowledge of the me-
chanic arts would be taught side by
side with the elements of language,
history and literature. The schools
of this city would be advanced quar-
ter of century and doubled in eff
cheney were there Incorporated with
them good manual department.
With such schools established
generally over this country the
idea that manual labor is de.
basing would die out in a generation,
and the death of this un.American
conception of life and service would
be worth millions a year to our peo-
pie. The young man or woman who
enters upon life with eye and hand
trained has, in securing such training,
to no small extent secured the train
ing of mind and the cultivation of
the observing and rejecting facilities.
This is in itself the foundation of a
liberal education, and will lead to
such efforts at self-improvement in
the cases of those debarred the priv.
ilege of thorough high school
or university training as will
insure their practical equip
ment for any station in life, The
technical training for some specific
profession will be facilitated by the
exercise Of brain and muscle In the
manual school and even for these stu
dents the time spent in the man
ual school will be by no
means time spent in vain. San An
tonic has cause to congratulate her.
self on the character OF her public,
parOchial and private schools, but
she would be far in advance of her
present high standing had she in
operation department of industrial
art suitably equipped and ably con-
Quoted. The state in making such
splendid provision for its education
al future should not overlook the
manual school.

THE Galveston Tribune which
seems incapable of making a correct
statement concerning the LIGHT, re-
marks:
The San Antonio LIGHT AYERS that
the Chillan war Is not ended, and all
because the Democratic press believes
1t is. The LIGHT should consent to
peace.
The LIGHT always consents to an
honorable peace, but the LIGHT will
not consent to cry, "Peace! Peace!
when there is no peace" And
there will be no peace for
Chilli until she apologies for
her treatment of Uncle Sans
sailors and pays the indemnity de.
manded. The democratic press may
desire this peace at any price with
Chill, but the republican party be-
lieves in vigorous assertion of
American rights abroad as we'll as at
home, and it is time that foreign pow
ers were taught lesson in the proper
treatment of American citizens
abroad. This Valparaiso case is an
aggravated one and the admins
tration at Washington is not
going to abate its demands for
satisfaction for the purpose of sooth-
ing the anxieties of the Tribune. The
soothing syrup system has been tried
long enough and more drastic meas
ures should be adopted. 1t is little
strange, or perhaps not SO strange,
that the very journals which kick
against the government protecting
the ballot rights of colored citizens at
home also kick against the govern
ment's protection of it's white citizens
abroad.

A Question Of Morals.


The view taken OF the Metcalfe bribery case
By the legislature and the press is the most
laughab!e example OF inverted morals that can
be imagined outside the pages Of . French novel
or comic opera. Hang the detective and let the
criminal go free. The criminal. poor fellow,
was carried away by enthusiasm, The detect
i've, the sccnndrely Metcalfe, deceived him in
that be did not tell him In advance that he was
going to expose him. He exposed him at an in
opportune moment. How Gilbert and Sullivan
could work it up into brilliant chorus of iegis-
iators, with q breakdown farce between the
verses, and with deep bass part set down for
the Tacoma Lefger and Globe about Metcalfe
being mark to '.poirt the finger of scorn at as
long as an inscrutable providence sees fit to pro
long his miserable and useless life.' Can the
whole ridiculous thing be taken seriouzlyg Can
these respectable journals raeanwhat they say?
And the legislators-has Hermann, the great
magician been around and whipped out their
mighty brains, replacing them with feathers
from his incxhaustible hat? Metcalfe might
have expected to make bitter enemies OF those
men directly implicated by his exposures, but
as compensation he probably counted on the up
prevail and support of legislators jealous of their
honor, and of the population Of the young and
ambitious state, sedulous to guard the purity OF
her institutions. Did the gratitude of the legis-
lature take the form of vote of thanks? Not
exactly; 1t took the somewhat peculiar method
of vote on expulsion.

MITCHELL-LA BLANCHE BETS.
Shareholders Who Turned Over Money
Will Have to Mako IL Good.

SAN Francisco, March 10.-fSpccial- IA sen.
timent OF indignation has shown itself in the
matter of settling bets in the Young Mitchell.
George LaBIanche affair, that was declared "nc
go" by the directors OF the California Athletic
Club. Those who had wagers laid with the
bookJnakers had their coin returned to them,
but those who placed money in the hands OF
private individuals are suffering in many in.
stances. There was no less than 5000 put up in
saloons, cigar stores and other places on Young
Mitchell In many instances, Immediately after
the fight the Mitchell men presented themselves
to get their money. As rule no further cor
TOT Grafton was asked than the word OF the ap-
rlicant regarding who had won. Ned Fay, Of
the Grand hotel bar. 10 sufferer to the extent
OF 500 He had been made stakeholder to the
extent OF many hundred dollars. A few
moments after the La Blanche iay-down to
Mitchell several Of the mcu who had bet on the
latter marched in triumph to the saloon and de-
manded their money. They received il and
went away. A little later some others dropped
IN on the same mission, but the La Blsnche
hackers had arrived there by that time and told
how no decision had yet been rendered. Az
shareholders are responsible for coin placed in
their hands, Fay will have to refund the coin he
discussed and which the people who received il
refuse to give back. Sig Gunet, the cigar man,
who has taken his brothers place while Nose is
in Havana. has been cinchcd for ouiy so, which
he paid over 70 Tobey, the saloon man who ig-
ured so prominently in the club investigation az
the "iriend of La Blanche" and who gave the
latter all his drinks Of gin. The fact that Tobey
bet on Mitchell and fed La Blanche with gin IS
significant Tobey laughs and says: 'sGive up
the dust? Never
