district, another plurality member and a
new one, has as yet no serious opposition
His district is peculiar one. and has been
for so many years controlled by members
OF the Burnes family that opposition is at
all times feeble. r. P. c. Wilson Of Platte
and Charles j.. Booker Of Andrew would
like to succeed him.
Mr.. Tarsney Of the fifth district which in
cludes Kansas City and the counties Of
jackson and Lafayette will have opposition
but his position in the patronage fight in
the western district, which resulted In Mr.

cite. and Marcy X. Brown of Kansas CITY
have announced their intention OF contest
Ing the nomination with Mr.. Tarsney The
fifth was the Kilkenny district prior to
Mr. Tarsney's advent into politics, and that
the cats are contemplating a revival Of the
old fights is pretty evident.
Representative DeArmond of the sixth
district had an administration follower for
an opponent until recently, when the senti-
ment of the district so plainly shown
that he withdrew from the race with the
ingenious statement that the present repre-

A negro colony is being organ
lied for the state of Sonora, Mex
leo. The colonization schemes of
this sort that have proved abortive
would sink a ship. The negro had
better look little out before he
commits himself to a colonization
scheme for the other fellows bene-
fit. The woods is full of men who
are ready to swindle any or every
body for the sake of making a
stake for themselves. Colonial
ton in Mexico may be a good
thing, and then it may be an out
rageous fraud. The negro who is
inclined to bite at this bait had
better examine the trap and see
who is pulling the string.

THE heather Chinee approaches
the United States Territory at
every available point regardless of
law, license or regulation of any
kind; utterly Indifferent as to
what pestilence he brings in his
filthy train. Every son of sin that
thus enters this country should be
imprisoned and worked until he
earns enough to pay his passage
back to his home howell, and then
be deported to it.

THE humanitarians of the coun-
ry re raking the authorities of
Atlanta over the Goals for chain
ing little white boys of tender
age in the gang with hardened
criminals, mostly of the black per-
suasion. There must be a scarcity
of truly bad in that city or the
authorities would not be at such
pains to establish school of vice
under their own authority and
maintained at their own expense.
The brutal stupidity that has done
this thing under the semblance of
legal punishment for Juvenile
offence deserves the apprehension
of all civilization. 1t is a crime
by the state against childhood.

the monarchy, and in this thing
they are backed by all the mer-

THE provisional government of
Hawaii, knocked out of time by
Cleveland, are making overtures
for an English protectorate over
the islands. The first steps have
already been taken and the re-
Spouse is favorable. They are
determined that Queen Lii shall
not again resume the reins of mis-
government, nor are they willing
to be disintegrated. They realize
that some stability of government
must be secured in order to pro-
tect their industrial interests, and
failing to secure this at the hand
of the United States have turned
their hopes to England as the
most likely government to respond.
The advices are that they have as
surance that Great Britain will
give them the protection for which
they vainly applied to this coun-
try. This means that when Cleve-
land ordered down the American
flag it was virtually an order to
hoist the British flag in its place.

THE requests to the city of Gal
weston by Henry Rosenberg re-
mind the LIGHT that both Hous-
ton and Galveston have a great
deal to thank their public spirited
citizens for, while San Antonio is
still waiting for a movement in
the way of some valuable bequest
to this city from some of her cap
italists. The most valuable of all
Mr.. Rosenberg's gifts was that
of public library and it's endow-
ment upon permanent basis
within three years. He has builded
by this bequest monument to his
liberality and intelligence that
will never be destroyed. In laying
the foundations of such memorial
he has laid the foundations for an
ever increasing knowledge, and an
acquaintance with the thought of
the past and the present on the
part of the generations that shall
follow after, that will prove a per-
petuaI mine of wealth to the city
in which he lived, and in which,
though dead, he continues to speak
even more eloquently and effect
lively than when in the flesh.

pauperising that labor. Protec-
