1t is not possible that the Re-

The repeal of that free wool bill
is certain. Will Cleveland veto
that measure in order to save the
Democratic party? If he does it
will be another added to the list of

Of its own foolish disregard Of all

demanded at the hands OF Con-

There is prevailing belief that
the people who pay the taxes and
serve on the juries and who defend
the government when it is in peril
are the people who should be legis-
lated for by the state and national
legislatures. The great and fatal
mistake Of the Democratic party
was in imagining that their duty
was tolegislate for foreign institu-
tions and peoples at the expense Of
the people of this country. 1t is
mistake that has cost them more
thar they will ever pay.

THE NEXT CONTEST.

Now that the elections for the
fall are over and the triumph Of
the American idea in government
is established, by such an over
whelming majority as will pre-
clude any monkeying with the in
dustries of the nation for years to
come, it is in order to turn atten-
ton to some other matters and pre-
pare for them. Recent events have
established the superiority OF the
public schools of this city in the
minds of the instructors OF the ma
ton, and of necessity commended
the efforts of those interested in
the direction of the school work.
There is no discount upon their
work, and there should be no hest
fancy in looking still ahead in de-
vising the best means for render
ing that work still more etfectual
in the future. Under the present
city government the work Of the
public schools has received marked
attention, and there is every conf
dence in the wisdom of its man.
agement. None the less it is well,
here as elsewhere, to adopt those
methods in direction of school
finances and affairs that have been
found so signally successful in
other cities. To the informed on
this point there are no two opin-
ions as to the wisdom of separating
the school government totally and
from the municipal gov
eminent, not making of it branch
of the city administration but
a different and entirely sepa-
rate administration. There should |
be in every city Of the size Of San
Antonio a separate school admin
istration, the members Of the school
board elected by a direct vote Of
the people, holding their office by |
the will Of the patrons Of the
schools, responsible to the taxpay-
ers directly for the discharge Of
their duties, unincumbered and I'M
involved with the affairs of the
city government in any way. The
people thus elected to serve the
needs Of the public school would be
chosen with special reference to
their fitness for such work and
their interest in it, and not as at
present for their supposed fitness
for council administrator and leg
islation, the school fitness being a
secondary consideration. This mat
ter Of seperate administration for
the schools, as the result of a sepa-
aate election of school officers, is
attracting general attention in ed
vocational circles and is very likely
to be submitted to the people in
the spring elections for their ap-
proval or disapproval. In the
meantime the LIGHT calls atten-
ton to the subject, that the people
may take it under advisement and
be prepared to act understandingly
upon the proposition when it is
nresentad.
