Cruelty to Farm Animals.

outing agent of the Massachusetts, Society

Q farmer who paid $50 for beating q

were fined Sl2 each for their brutal folly.
Still another paid like fine for neRlecting

other who starved his oxen was fined $40

but the end Is not yet. for q farmer paid
ten dollar fine for abandoning a sick cow
by the roadside. Another brutal farmer

remind him of an easier way. Another

hausted. but We have Quilted enough
examples TO show that the human
brute should never be charged with
the care of the animal one. The only
objection We have to the punishment I'M
posed in each case is it's insutiicency. Men
capa BILE of such brutality as this report in

be- permitted to escape by payment of n

ACCOMPANY a money loss in every snch in

juriDg useful farm animals should receive
no mercy. They deserve none Their
punishment should be swift. stern and
severe.

bail circles. Last night a number

We Will Get 1t.

A strong and determined fight has been
made for the past two years to secure the
location here OF one Of the branches OF the
civil appellate court. The last legislature
snubbed San Antonio, on account of the
prejudice that Governor HOgg has
against this city, but the San Antonians
kept up the fight and kept sending com
mittees, composed Of leading prominent
citizens, over TO Austin, TO press upon the
members Of the legislature the justice Of
San Antonio's claims. until the present
legislature began to take an interest in
the matter. When the solons visited here
on Wednesday and met the people here,
the latter urged San AntOnio'S claims for
the court, and it now appears that San
Antonio is likely to secure 1t.
A telegram received last night from
Representative Slayden announced that
the joint judicial committee had unani-
mously recommended the establishment
OF a district and locating an appellate
civil court here. 1t is more than probable
that the report will be adopted by both
branches Of the legislature.

galloway Mandamuses Judge Gala

Warrant

The LIGHT gave full account of the
controversy between County Judge Cal
laghan and Courthouse Construction In
Spector galloway and the county commits
Sioners. which has been going on in the
commissioners court ever since the be-
ginning of the present term of that tribu-
nal. Now the controversy has gone into
the district court i'm the shape of a man
damuS suit, which was filed yesterday
afternoon in Judge NOOnan'S court. The
800 warrant for the payment of Salla-
WAYS salary for the month OF January
was presented by the county clerk to the
county Judge for his signature and the
latter fatty refused to sign it. The four
commissioners, although willing to sign
it. concluded it would be best to have the
matter settled by a mandamuS suit filed
by galloway to compel Judge Callaghan
to sign the warrant and hence the latter
course was adopted. the writ was issued
and the matter set for hearing tOmOr
row, which is the last day of the present
term OF that court. The first day of the
next term will be on March 9th and it is
probable that the matter may not be
heard until the next term together with
the contests of James MCClOsky against
Andres Brown, for constable, and L. y.
