THE City of Mexico will take no
rest until it has established per-
feet system of sewerage. The city
Of San Antonio would be wise and
economical also if she were to fol-
low in the footsteps of the capital
of the Republic across the Rio
Grande, at least as far as this mat
ter of sewerage is concerned.
Sewers are as necessary as bread to
the future of this city.

THIS is not the age of charitable
ness, however it may claim to be
a charity giving one. There is no
one thing that is more in demand
in the church, in the counting
room, in public life, in the sancti-
ty of home than this divinely
commonplace gift of charity. Not
the spurious semblance of the
sweet original, but that genuine
cloak of the angels that covers a
multitude of sins; that is ready
to esteem other equal if not better
than self, and seeketh not its own
but the things of another, without
any sneaking desire to appropriate
them. This charity is worth cul.
tivating and there is more profit
in it than in a herd of Jerseys.

HoGG's assumption that he
knows more than the congress
that passed that sugar bounty bill,
and more than the Legislature that
endorsed the acceptance by the
state of the proportion of that
bounty due Texas, is Of piece
with those other acts of asSininity
that have made the state the
laughing stock of every state and
territory from Maine to the Pacific
Those who justify it as piece of
craftsmanship would justify the
lowest understrapper in Hades,
who should lay claim to Peters
seat and assume to pass upon the
merits of the applicants for admis'
sion.

THERE will be an immense
crowd in this city on the eleventh
of June. The Austin regatta will
close on Saturday, and to those
who are there an opportunity will
be given for cheap run down to
the real metropolis of the state.
The fare has been placed for that
round trip at $3.50. The good peo-
pie should welcome their visitors
with a band at the station on their
arrival and show them that they
are not unmindful of their pres
ence. The LIGHT assures them of
cordial welcome.

THE imposition of a graduated
income tax is lauded to heaven as
the panacea for all ills, on the one
hand; and, it is cursed as the sum
of all Villainies, on the other, by
those who do not endorse it as a
means of raising revenue. There
are no doubt objections to 1T as a
means of raising revenue, but there
is no scheme that can be proposed
that will not encounter opposition.
The merit that is claimed for the
income tax is that it will enable
the state and national govern
ments to secure taxes from thou
sands of the wealthy who now are
virtually proof against all at
tempts to levy tax upon them. 1t
is well known that it is almost inn
possible to secure any just levy
upon personal property, and that
those who hold the most personal
ty as a rule pay the least upon it
Something to remedy this in,
equality is demanded and the in,
come tax is advocated in the hope
that it may prove etfectual and
meet the difficulty.

WHATEVER the causes that may
have led to the break in the Aus
tin dam the sentiment of this city
is truly sympathetic with Austin
in her misfortune. While it is true
that the dam itself is as solid as
the rock, it is also true that this
fact will be disregarded by the
crOakers, and there will be no end
of criticisms of an alarming char
acter upon the insecurity of that
structure. 1t is a matter of regret
that this immense granite wall,
capable of resisting almost any
conceivable PRESSURE should be dis
credited by an accident that has
no bearing at all on the sOlidity of
the dam proper. This misfortune
comes at a singularly opportune
, time so far as the structure Itself
is concerned, but unfortunately fol
Austin it comes just on the eve OF
her regatta, and may have some
untoward influence on that event
San Antonio has the most lively
sympathy for her sister city I'M
der this inOppOrtune event, and
hopes that it will be only a short
time before all damages will be
repaired beyond the possibility o
a like occurrence.

Black Langshan.

] A large bird, color deep black, back
and wings, bodies, a bottle green or orange
green. The most popular of any of the
large breeds to-day, with possibly one ex-
ceptiOn, the Plymouth Rock The only
Asiatic fowl that is suitable for warm
Iclimates. We have bred them for three
years and if we were to confine ourselves
to any one breed, it would be the Lang
shan. They are an all-around general pur
pose bird, good whenever wanted, are very
domestic A four foot fence will keep a
Atured fowl if properly fed. In most
markets their eggs are sought after, being
large, and the chocolate color gives them
rich appearance. Their skin is white,
flesh tender and juicy. They have not a
superior as table fowl, except the game.
For coping with common hens, the
cocks are in demand, being early to ma
ture and feathering we'll is good fea-
ture. They are strong and healthy as
chicks, and stand the warm weather here
exceedingly well.
On the whole, we have no hesitancy in
recommending them to farmers and
Others who are looking for the best fowls
for eggs and meat, while the hens are
good sitters and mothers.
The above illustrates fowl that has
more admirers than any one of the many
that is bred extensively in this State.
The above illustration does not f1atter
cock of this breed when in full fresh
plumage. Their good qualities are not
confined to beauty alone, they will lay
more eggs than any ofthe many varieties
we have kept for the last eight years and
statistics give them credit for the largest
egg, reared in this and foreign countries.
If there is a nOn-sitting breed it's the
Hamburg. The eggs are little under
size until the hen is two years old.
