THURSDAY, MARCH 10, '96

There will be no straining of the
relations of the United States and
Mexico, because the federal au-
thorities refuse to hand over to
Mexico the men who on American
soil plotted against the peace and
security of Mexico. This is as it
should be. Mexico is at peace. Her
people are prosperous under the
best government that country has
ever been blessed with. Her rela-
tions with the United States are of
the most cordial character, and
there is not the slightest reason
why the government of this coun-
try should shelter Mexican revolu-
tiOnists and throw over the border
bandits the Pgis of her protection.
Good law abiding Texans will
heartily welcome the decision of
the Supreme court of the United
States in its ruling, by which the
CARA bandits are turned over to
the Mexican government to an
swer for their acts. Not on this ac-
count alone, but because that de-
cision will do more to tranquilize
the border and prevent predatory
incursions than a regiment of
rangers and another of rurales.

The exposure to all sorts ant

The exposure to all sorts and
conditions of weather that a lum-
herman is called upon to endure in
the camps often produces severe
colds, which, If not promptly
checked, result in congestion or
pneumonia. Mr.. j. o. Davenport,
ex.mansger OF the Fort Bragg Red
wood Co., an immense Institution
at Fort Bragg, Cal, says they sell
large quantities of Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy, at the company's
store and that he has himself used
this remedy for a severe cold and
obtained immediate relief. This
medicine prevents any tendency of
cold toward pneumonia and in
sures prompt recovery. For sale

rs 1T TO BE A FAIR7

/ Is IL III BIZ A tAlhI
Once more the movement for
fair in this city this fall comes to
the front. That such fair can be
held and made a credit to the city,
is a fact that admits OF no contro-
versy. That it will be the begin
ming OF successful series OF
annual fairs in this city IL it is
successfully carried through, is
also accepted. There is no doubt
that it will be a real benefit to the
city itself, no less than to the vast
territory contiguous and tributary
to San Antonio. These facts all
render the holding Of such an
annual gathering Of the products
Of Southwest Texas, and those who
produce them, an important matter
for the interests of the section in
terested. The rocks on which
other attempts have made ship
wreck are we'll known and under
stood, and the wisdom that is
manifested in this present move
ment must be properly directed
to avoid these. 1t is not neces-
sary to call up the past, only as
a warning to avoid its errors. San
Antonio has put into operation one
of its most promising industrial
enterprises since the last fair was
held. She has also in active
operation a business mans club |
that is cementing the efforts of
the wide awake citizens together
and creating in them method of
most desirable thing
II success is to follow any public
action. 1t is not probable that
any fair at first can be made self
supporting, but it can be made
to yield such benefits to the bust
ness Of the city, during the few
years that 1t is growing to self
supporting conditions, as to amply
compensate for the subscriptions.
that are made for its support.
This year differs from others
In that the movement is made in
time to secure the cooperation Of
the counties that will naturally
come into the movement, as we'll
as to advertise it abroad. Not only
this, but this year is the most
promising in its early months of
any that the state, and particular
~ this southwest, has seen for a
Iull decade. The LIGHT has al
ways been ready and more than
to second every effort Of
every kind that has promise in 1t
1f good to this city. No fair pro-
Jet yet mooted but received its
support, even when it's
better judgment could not ap.
prove the means employed and the
policy pursued. 1t is ready now
TO pull with the rest and leave no
means untried to place this pres
ent movement on such a footing }
Is to insure its success, now and in
the years to follow.

large numbers. The attendance from

THROWN INTO THE SEA.

Trouble of Burying the Dead In Constan-
tinople Thus Avoided.
CoNsTANTINoPLE, Aug. 3l.-Scores Of
dead have been thrown into the sea In
order to save the trouble of burying the
bodies. The British charge d'affaires
has refused the request of the sultan, to
withdraw the guards OF British marines,
saying he cannot do SO until the dis
orders here are thoroughly quelled. VI
the Armenians who were seized in the
Ottoman bank, five were killed and five
were wounded in the bank. They all
come from abroad. The 10 survivors
have been sent to Marseilles, the Brit
ish and French warships seeing the
Messagerie liner safely off.
Mr.. Michael Herbert, the British
charge d'affaires, has ordered the Brit
ish guardship Dryad to receive all fam
lilies desiring protection, and any British
vessel in port may be requisitioned in
case of necessity. There is also much
anxiety in the suburbs, where many
Europeans having Armenian servants
are afraid of being attacked.
Visited by Terrell.
The American college at Hissar, and
the Bible house at Stamboul are guarded
by troops. The United States minister,
Mr.. Alexander w. Terrell, visited His
sar to ascertain if the Americans were
safe, His visit had a reassuring effect,
and the chief of police Of Hissar told
Mr.. Terrell that all measures had been
taken to preserve order. The Galata
quarter is quieter, but all the shops are
closed and 10 Armenians are to be seen
in the streets which are patrclled by
troops.
There was a fresh panic during the
day, owing toa bomb being thrown
while the soldiers were returning from
Selamlik. Nobody was hurt, however,
and the man who threw the bomb was
arrested. Although several Of the Ar.
merian districts were the scene Of mss
sacres and. pillages, the city is quieter.
and the apthpEiies now appear deter.
mined to maintain order.
