Corpus Christi and Rockport are
shooting beans at each other on
account OF differences of opinion
over the deepening of Arkansas
Pass. Better shoot the beans at the
bar and try and remove it. San
Antonio is not as much interested
in either scheme as she formerly
was, for she is putting down iron
on that Gulf Shore road at a rate
that will give her open water at
Velasco before any deep water
vessels can possibly cross the
Arkansas bar. All the same the
LIGHT, which has always given
good counsel to that coast coun-
try, would suggest that the bellig-
erents cease fighting and unite on
some measure that in the mature
of things will insure them a 16
foot channel before the century
closes.

CONTRIBUTED SCRAPS.

An independent city ring is bet
ter than on9 ring, but there would
be no city, or county ring, were
the people alive to their own true
interests, and independent enough
to stand fast by their convictions.
No matter how much you like
a man personally, if he belongs to
the county ring, don't vote to put
him into city office, as that will
give the city government over to
the county ring. Do the voters
"catch on?"

Those Wisconsin editors paid an
unconscious tribute to the qualities
OF San Antonio beer when as many
of them said, it reminded them OF
home. 1t pays to devote little
time to the entertainment OF
strangers who have in their hands
the power to scatter broadcast over
two or three great states their inn
pressiOns of a city. There is not
doubt that the impression left in
the minds of the Wisconsin edito-
rial excursionists was more favor
able to San Antonio than to any OF
her state rivals. This opinion was
pertinently and positively express
ed in conversation, and that with
out hint on the part of the enter
tanners here. 1t was so patent that
these level headed people could not
help seeing it. There was univers-
al regret that their stay could not
be prolonged.

The sessions Of the Irrigation
Convention are producing good re-
suits. The body is composed Of
good brains, practical in their
ideas and DESTROYS of working to-
ward definite retults. Some of the
delegates are inclined to be stick
lers for form rather than substance,
but these are both few and far be-
tween. AS a whole the convention
has more than the average sense
and far more than the average
interest in the work that has call
ed them together. Out Of this con-
vention will come an organization
that will take steps, ever increas-
ing in number and efficiency, to de-
wise and provide for the irrigation
OF a great area Of this southwest.
This work will center in this city,
and be Of immense benefit to the
growth OF all it's industries. This
is work in which all OF our peo-
pie should feel a personal concern,
for on their assistance in large
measure depends the direction that
the work Of the Irrigation Associa-
ton shall take, and on that direc-
ton depends the benefit that will
insure therefrom to this city.
There is millions in it ifItheIthing
is properly done.

The senseless feud that has so
long existed between the presiden-
tial wing Of the Democratic party
and the other cloud sweeper, is so
nonsensical under the unfortunatc
condition now confronting that
party that the best men of both
factions are chagrined and mOrti-
fed at the spectacle. None the less
the President seems determined to
push matters and widen the breach,
were that possible.

Only seven per cent Of the mem
bers Of the Texas Senate are Popu-
lists and only twenty percent of
the House, and yet the Populists
persist in declaring that they have
about corralled the state.
Fort Worth Gazette suggests that
Kolb secede from Alabama and set
his stakes for governor OF Kansas.
This is rough on Kolb. Has the
Gazette heard how Kansas has
turned down the Dem-Pops?
Houston press says "what the
southern farmer lost on the low
price Of cotton he made up on the
high price of corn" Then he had
better tick to his corn field and
let the cotton blow.
There is no general reform, only
as each individual of the mass re-
forms himself and so makes the
individual the mass by multiply
ing him. Reforms all begin with
in ones own environment.
This country has nothing to gain
to herself, either from the count
ries that have been so arbitrarily
Disseminated against by this
present, congress or from that con-
gress itself.
The Republicans of Texas have
no pretensions in the coming leg
islature. They know that any
attempt to gain control Of that
body would be futile, and do not
intend to monkey in the minority.
Debs is in the same boat with
the congress now in session. He is
back number and does not know
it.
The trend of opinion at Washing
ton does not sanction the idea, SO
strongly set forth, that the western
and middle states were hungering
and thirsting fer free silver bill
to pass.
Rain is greatly needed here, and
the weather clerk is respectfully
reminded that the Editors have
gone, Kermiss is over and the Irri-
gators adjourn tomorrow. Turn
on the aqueous.
The Democrats will have one
great sigh Of relief when the Re-
publicans relieve them Of the bur-
dens Of administration, a work
for which they are so confessedly
demonstrated to be unequal.
The gold reserve is over the re.
quired $l0O,000,00O or more, but it
may take another $5O,O0O,000 most
any time to keep it there. The
revenues are minus about $l2,000,-
600 every month now.
The tariff may be a dead issue in
dead congress, but it will be
alive in the live Fifty-fourth.

Solid John Sherman rises to the
occasion to remark that he has
neither part nor lot with Cleve-
land and Carlisle in their currency
foolishness. Treasury John is not
with that crowd, and his political
and personal friends do not need
to be told so.

Recent developments in New
York City would indicate that the
city beats the catacombs of Rome
as hiding place. When so goodly
a sum as $l5,OOO,OOO can be slowed
away in the capacious NAV Of a
ring for twenty or more years,
without auy one suspecting the
TACT, it is in order to turn up the
whole concern and see what is un-
derneath. New York has been the
prey Of a greater gang OF thieves
than Ali Baba ever mustered. It
remains to be seen if the Lexow
committee will discover the "open
sesame" to the plumber that has
been stored away and squandered
all these years.

II Captain Mackey had room &C
cording to his strength there would
be no need of calling on the public
when it came to caring for car
load of editors. He was the only
member of the city council who
put in an appearance yesterday for
the entertainment Of the guests
from Wisconsin, and had it not
been for his personal exertions
there would have been little enter
tainment for them. 1t would be a
good thing to organize an associa-
ton to care for the tourists that
visit this city from the north in
organized bodies, and Captain
Mackey should be chosen perpetual
president.

Intelligent Northern Republic
cans are keenly alive to the over
weening influence that the south
ern states have in nominating a
candidate for the presidency, when
they cannot poll single electoral
vote for his election. There is a
tendency to correct this evil, and
that tendency will be made mani
fest in the next session of the
National Republican convention.
This is only right and just.

The Galveston Tribune in treat
ing Of the new currency scheme set
forth by the President, says that
this scheme will undoubtedly be
supported by the PresidentTand
that its support or rejection will in
some fashion form the issue of the
next presidential campaign.N The
Tribune fOrgets that Cleveland will
then be no longer an issue, and
that the real bone of contention
will not be life or death to Cleve-
lands policy, but life or death to
Democracy itself. That this is to
be the issue of the coming pres
idential contest is patent, and it
will be fought out on the lines of
Democratic action in Congress and
presidential administration in the
White House, not on some finan-
cial scheme drafted by convention
OF Wall street bankers and fathered
by the President.
