Another Family Row.

Mrs. Sam Pierce is a woman who
was never known to be friendly to
a neighbOr, and on the other hand,
has always had rows with them.
Last night she sent her boy over to
a neighbours house to annoy an old
old lady named Foreman. Mrs.
FOreman's son, Blue, saw the child
and punished him and sent him
home, as he was singing indescent
songs in the presence OF
Blues mother. Mr.. Pierce went
atOnce to the police station and had
Foreman arrested on the charge OF
using abusive language and for
beating and striking. Judge Nc
Allister fined him s. in each case
He is a boy II years of age and is
the only support his aged mother
has. They are poor and the boy
will be compelled to remain 10 days
in Jail. Perhaps when Mrs. Pierce
is better known to the new admin
istration her complaints will not
be heard.

Representing a mass meettngof
the citizens of BeXar county, Texas,
held at the Grand opera house in
this city of San Antonio, Texas, on
the 23d day of March, 1898, we beg
to call the attention of BeXar cOun-
ty to the following penal statutes,
which are openly and publicly Vio-
lated in our county. We are not
sure, but there may be some people
who are in ignorance of these laws,
and we take this method of max
ing them known.
1--WE hope, hereafter, these laws
will be voluntarily Obeyed; if not,
we have the assurance of the Off
GERS of BeXar county that they will
be enforced to the letter. We in
Vite the cooperation of all good,
law abiding citizens in the enforce
ment of these laws. We do not
wish to punish or harass any per-

first duty of the citizen. Obey the
law, discharge this duty and no
one will be punished"
They say quote the Sunday law
and announce that they will fur

the city peace officials and if they
do not enforce the Sunday law they
will present them to the grand jury
at its next session, which cOnVenes

court on Monday next.
The last grand jury it will be
remembered, ignored the Sunday
law matter, and Judge NOOnan in
his charge mentioned nothing of it
to them. Whether he or the next
grand jury will pay attention to it
or not remains to be seen.

 the policy for which the party had de clared and to enforce which it was elected. Some of the republican sem ators anc representatives expressed this view in congress and it was gem orally acquiesced in to the extent of silence on the part of those who are specially favored under the high pro- tective system, they believing at the time the sherman law would be re- pealed and the financial stringency re- lieved, while at the same time strong blow might be struck for the retention of the Mckinley legislation under the impression created that it is necessary to the prosperity of the country.
 But the action of the minority in the senate and its stubborn refusal to grant the demand for repeal have been the means of compelling the g Hat manufacturing interests of the country to show their hands and confess that the repeal is necessary for the financial preservation of the country, thereby confessing that the tariff scare was only created for selfish partisan and trade interests and that it was without foundation in fact The unprincipled suggestion of Senator Don Cameron that the purchase of silver be continued in order that the republicans in con- gress might be sufficiently strength cned to prevent reform of the tariff, was promptly sat down upon by the manufacturers of the country, and mo- where more severely than ip the great iron and steel center of his own state. They are unanimous in their demands that the sherman law be repealed as the one thing which will restore pros perity. They declare without qualifica- tion that 1t is responsible for the crisis which would be happily passed but for the uncertainty created by the inexpli- cable course of the senate. In none of the appeals from the manufacturers and the commercial organizations to congress is there any expression of fear because the democratic party proposes to keep faith with the people in the re- vision of the Mckinley tariff laws. Their whole cry is for the adoption of a sound financial policy The attempt to create tariff scare has been a dis nal failure. re.-Detroit Free Press
