Collector of Customs Brewster. 5000
This does not embrace the minor
positions supposed to be held by re.
Jublicsns under these officials, whose
incomes, because they are republi
cans. will aggregate large sum, over
Sl00, 900. The above salaries may not
be exactly correct, but nearly 80.
max ing a sum of over forty thousand
dollars annual income from repub-
licanism.
In addition to this list of OPP
pulsnt Federal Office salary get.
tiers we have y short list of
county officials who get spleu-
did incomes principally on their re.
publlcanism.
George Paschal, district attorney
has become q rich man In office and
is accredited as receiving an income of
Ten thousand year.
Ed. FrOeboese, county treas
urer draws a year. ............S3 900
Judge McA lister. ............ 5000
County Commissioner Umscheid 900
Judge NoOnan. -. ............. $500
Assessor HUH. Observation-Disclosures. 5000
surveyor Locke. .............. 1900
These figures may not be exactly
correct. but shows an aggregate of
over SIS, 900 secured by these gentle
men because of their repubiicanism.
Now how much patronage in the
way of subscriptions or otherwise,
does the LIGHT receive from this
formidable and brilliant array of re.
publican official salary-getters:
E. II. Terrell receives 81 200 per
81,
pays yearly subscription s.
Marshal Fricke. yearly subscription 5

Collector Brewster is an old sub
| seriber to the LIGHT and owes four
years subscription, $40, and can't he
included as even a nOn-su bscriber
| Therefore we can foot up the sum of
TWENTY DOLLARS! rom these
well fed, we'll paid fepub lican federal
| Office holders, towards the spread of
repu blicsn literature. Whenever
these gentlemen, as in the case of the
u. S marshal, has any job printing
or advertising to give out, although
| the expense does not come out of his
| pocket, he gives his patronage to
democratic establishments. Is il any
| wonder that Chairman Mcdaniel
failed to make his Globe Democrat
scheme ma ecializf. Why hal ma
| Mcdaniel has nev5r h0nOred our suD.
scription list, or paid for copy OF tn 9
LIGHT that we know of.
AS TO our local republican officials
made great and successful because
OF their party, and largely due to the
wOrK OF the LIGHT, we receive the
magnificent sum OF $50 for subscrip.
tions.
Now it is useless to prOmulgate the
principles OF republlcaHism under
the leai of Clark, as the Fort Worth
convention has released all its fedora
office holders from further RESPONSE
bility for the failure to promote re-
publicsnism. 1t was out OF place fol
Lock Mcdaniel to complain of tn,
failure of republicans to put thei
hands in their pockets and pay for ,
repu blican newspaper in the state. l
would be an easy matter If those VIII,
draw salaries AS federal office hold
ers to contribute q stated amount
> even q small amount to publish
a paper equal to the Dalla
News, and put it over every thesholC
in Texas. The LIGHT, thanks to tn
business men of san Antonio, j
