The Bryanites are busy figur-
ing out just where another $4,000
votes cast for their candidate
would have changed the result Of
the election. Just so, and there
is just as good showing to be
made by the Republicans and
the sound money Democrats as to
the result that a change of 25,-
900 votes from Bryan would have
had on his chances. The battle
is fought out now, and the weak
places in the sound money ranks
will all be strengthened before
the next contest is on. Organism
is really dead.

There is considerable complaint
that the health officers of the city
do not speak out concerning dis
eases that are likely to gain a
hold here. There is no need of
any scare as to San Antonio, but
at the same time it is only right
that her health officials should
be on the alert to prevent any
possible spread of disease through
their own neglect or the care
lessness of the physicians. Re
port all cases promptly, note
their character, deal with them
accordingly, and there will be Sc
curity.

Canadian John is trying a game
of bluff over on the Yukon line.
There is no need of it. The Unit
ed States does not scare worth a
cent, nor would the massing of a
hundred thousand troops along
the line effect her a hair. She
will not yield one iota of her pos
sessions in Alaska without am
pie proof that the territory claim
ed does not belong to her. She
will hold and defend her own.

Uncle Sam had better be in
other business than organizing
Italian immigration, arranging to
have the Italians in this country
send home their earnings to as
sist Italians to reach America.
Herman Stump, the American
immigration superintendent, has
no warrant to engage in such bus
mess, and he should be called
down. Assisted immigrants are
not wanted here. What is first
wanted is assisted labor to our
own unemployed thousands. This
immigration foolishness is bank
rupting the labor of this country,
keeping wages down and throw
ing tens, of thousands of Ameri-
can citizens out of the chance to
work for the support of them
selves and their destitute fami-
lies. Put stop to such non
sense. There is no need of great
statesman's brain to understand
that with unemployed hundreds
of thousands in this country, and
mines shutting out other thous-
ands, we need no more labor from
abroad.

The National Democrats, with
out the Chicago attachment are
getting in shape to capture the
country in 1900. 1t is a task that
will not deyolve on them to set
tie the conditions of so much as
upon the Republicans, who have
swept the country. If the G. o.
Z. is alive to its opportunities,
will come up to the measure of
the popular demand, make no
compromises with any, legislate
for the interests of the people,
protect them against foreign in
vasion of labor and its products
abroad, stand squarely upon the
American idea in all foreign mat
tiers, take wise measures for in
ternal defence, permit no en-.
crOachments upon it's territory or
that of neighboring republics, add
minister the affairs of the country
economically and upon broad and
generous lines, maintain the puri-
ty of the public service and the
efficiency of all it's departments,
then the national Democracy will
be left with no cloth out of which
to make national suits four years
hence. The Republican party has
it's future in its own hand, and
time alone will tell how wisely it
will devise and execute for it's
own future.

The Knights of Labor have
done wisely in refusing their
cOuntenance to men who are on

they in refusing to sanction those
organizations which permit those
members to take the place of
strikers. Glands off" in this lat
ter case is only fair to the labor
ers involved.

THE ELECTION COUNT.

Considerable enquiry has been
made at the Light Office as to the
time when these controversies
as to the real standing of the late
presidential candidates in the
electoral college shall be authori-
tatively determined. The Light in
forms its readers that the United
States statutes governing this
matter provide that the electors
of the several states shall meet
on the second Monday in Janu-
airy, in their respective states, at
such place as the state legisla-
ture shall direct, to cast their
votes for president and vice-pres-
ident of the United States. 1t
is also provided that these votes
shall be sealed and transmitted
through certain authorized chan
nels to Washington; that con-
gress shall meet on the second
Wednesday in February after
the presidential election, both
bodies in the hall of the house of
representatives, the president of
the senate presiding, and that
the tellers to count the vote shall
be there appointed and all the
ballots and papers bearing on the
electoral vote shall be opened in
the presence of both houses and
the votes recorded by the tellers
as read; that the result shall be
announced and that this shall le
gally constitute the declaration
of the electors as to who is to be
the president and who vice-pres-
ident of the United States. 1t de-
wolves upon congress to specify
the day upon which the votes
shall be taken in the several
states, and upon the legislatures
to designate the place where
such vote of the state electors
shall be cast. In Texas the vote
will be taken in the capitol at
Austin on the 18th day of Janu-
airy next, and the announcement
will be made in Washington on
February 10th. Nearly all, if not
all of the state legislatures, with
the exception of Texas, have
changed the old law which call
ed the electors together on the
first Wednesday in December, so
that it conforms to United States
statute, but the law of congress
on this point regulates. On the
18th of January next the electors
of the several states will declare
the vote of that state, and whom
it has voted for as it's choice for
both president and vice-president.
All bets made on the result will
be determined by the figures Civ
en- out when the official count is
made. Until then no close bets
can be decided.
