The Mass Meeting.

The mass meeting to have been
held by indignant citizens in front
of the city hall Saturday night,
came very near Undertaking.. AS
early as s o'clock, citizens who had
been too busy in the day to catch
the news of the compromise from
the evening papers, began to gath
err, and by $3.50, about $50 men had
assembled. Mr.. Chas. Mierow, the
Populist leader, mounted the steps
and stated the facts of the compro-
mise, and asked the citizens to dis
perse, to reassemble for a grand
ratification, when the first dirt to-
ward building the Gulf Shore be-
gan to fly. The crowd then dis
persed.

MONDAY, APRIL 30, 1894.
RESTRICTED IMMIGRATION.

Congress moves slow in the mat
ter of restricting foreign immigra-
ton, but it does move. A bill in
PRODUCED before the House by Rep
resentative Some, of Pennsylvania,
to effect the reduction of the num-
Der Of foreigners coming to this
country and insure the exclusion
of paupers and criminals, has been
favOrably reported by the Judi
Ciary committee to the House. 1t
is hardly necessary to say that
Stone is a Republican. The pur-
port Of the bill is to prevent the
criminals and paupers of Europe
from being sent to the United
States as immigrants. The
Judiciary committee find that
the governments of the old
world pay the expenses of
their paupers and criminals to this
country in order to get rid Of the
maintenance of the one and the
punishment and watch of the other.
The late census returns are quoted
as showing how large a per cent of
our paupers and criminals are for
eign born. With only 14.77 per
cent Of our population foreign
born 36 per cent of all prisoners in
jails and penitentiaries are from
this l4.U per cent. The showing
for the penitentiaries alone is far
worse, showing for convicts over
fifty per cent from the l4.77 per
cent Of foreign born. The actual
numbers are 1915 native born
cOnviCts to l4,72j foreign born.
That is the native SJ.23 per cent of
the population yields 1,OIO less in
mates of penitentiaries than the
li,O of foreign born. The same is
true Of the paupers, the foreign
born in our almshOuses being 81
64S to 26,O4S of the native born.
The deduction from these figures
is so plainly in favor of some rigid
restriction of these classes, paupers
and criminals, that there should
not be a moments question over
the adoption of the needed restric-
tious. But this law does not go far
enough. There are now In this
country at the very lowest calcula-
ton million of surplus laborers
and as a consequence wages are
lower than for more than a quarter
OF century, the products of labor
increased until there is no market
for goods, anarchy organizing to
take advantage Of the gen,
eral dissatisfaction among tn,
Iaboring classes, and the Who'll,
framework alike Of the govern
ment and the Industries of tn,
country imperilled. 1t is not tn,
part of wisdom to shut our eyes al
a nation to facts so plain as these
San Antonio daily light. [volume] (San Antonio, Tex.) 1886-1907, 1894-04-30

European mOnarchies would not
disband their standing armies if
they could and they could not if
they would. The industries of the
countries involved would be
swamped with that number of
men let out to take place in the
industrial world. That world is
already overcrowded in both hem
ispheres.

and it is time that this question
of cutting off the grand army of
foreign immigration was made a
pratical one in our politics. 1t is
not glittering generalities that are
needed, but practical measures of
restriction, of such a character as
will actually restrict. When it
comes to the question of saving
our own industries or those of
Europe patriotism has only one
course open. Self preservation is
the first law of the nation.

Texas needs a constitutional
amendment declaring what rights
cities have over the officers whom
they elect. 1t now seems that the
election of a city council invests
them with title in fee simple to
the city, the property thereof, the
convenience of the citizens and the
corporation in general. Some
authoritative declaration on the
limitations of such usurpations is
in order.

the races open this fall.
The Populists are as early in the
political field as in the agricultu-
raj. If they confined their leader
ship to those who farmed with
their hands instead of with their
mouths they would gain by it.
Getzendaner got down from the
political saw-hOrse before he was
fairly mounted. He evidently did
not size up the numbers and make
up Of the gubernatOrial cavaIcade
before he announced himself.
Chicago and Illinois take the en-
tire cake basket for their prompti-
tude in vaccinating the children of
the state schools. Ninety-one per
cent have been operated upon and
now they defy the red pest.
Every day emphasizes the ne
cessity of doing more paving in
this city and letting speculative
matters alone. 1t is what we have
not that we want, not what we al
ready have in abundance.
Weaver, though a good Populist,
does not incline to seek a home in
the same state with Mary Ellen,
and announces that he will not re-
move to Kansas in order to reach
Congress from that state.
The thousands who throng this
city today and this week will note
no deficiency in our water supply
but they will drive over miles of
our streets that they will pronounce
a disgrace to the city.
To the dread of yellow fever, now
devastating Portugal, that of chol.

EXERCISE FOR THE EYES
Absolutely Necessary In Order That tn
Vision May BE Preserved.

When the eyes are treated fairly, they
are strengthened, not weakened, by
work. just as the arms Of a blacksmith
grow the stronger for his trade, SO the
eyes of watchmakers who work under
healthy conditions are found to improve
and not TO deteriorate in vigor and
4uickness. 1t is the abuse of the eyes,
not their use, which is to be avoided.
II a man is aware either that his eyes
need no artificial correction or else
have received their proper adjustment,
and if his work, whether literary or
mechanical, is done in a light both
steady and sufficient and with a due re-
gard as to ordinary sanitary rules, he
may feel sure that he is strengthening
his Eyes, not weakening them, by hard
work. Men of intellectual pursuits
sometimes are afraid of losing their
mental powers in old age because they
have drawn 80 much upon them when
young. The reverse is nearer the truth,
and if they have not overtaxed their
brains the fear is absolutely grcundless.
The mar whose intellect goes first in
old age is generally some farmer or la
borer who has never strengthened and
invigorated it by use; not the politician,
the lawyer or the man of letters. So
with the eyes. Those who had strength
ened their eyes by using them properly
keep keen sight longer than those who
have never trained them. In the case
of the man who has neglected to give
his eyes full development they will fail
in power along with his other bodily
functions. When, however, the man
who, born with good eyes, has kept
them in constant hard work and yet
never strained them reaches old age, he
may find them capable of performing
their functions better than any other or
gan of the body.-Philadelphia Times.

in an article on Gowns For the New

For the same reason they must omit

full portions Of the waist must be mod.
crate in size, as the sleeves, bertha,
belt and vest. The short, wide revers
now worn are becoming, also round
waists and short. pointed basques. Jack
ct fronts are in good taste, but the UNI
brella back basques give a short figure
a cut of appearance, as do tiny capes.
while a close fitting jacket adds ap-
parently several inches. Materials
must be selected with a view to making
the wearer look taller.

The returns are enormous when a
brand Of champagne is firmly estab.
lished, but it is slow and laborious work
to build up a demand for a new wine.
Accident more often popularizes a brand
than design. The sudden terrific rush

caused by a remark of the Prince OF
Wales, made casually in the course of an

Brands that were in great demand q
few years ago are now dropping out OF

sales run up in the thousands. As many

been sold in this countryi in one year at q
