tories. ITNUiNMi'Lof other booms anil other

CosniDKUtsn the past eight days It
can truly be said In this part of Texas
"December's as pleasant as May."
What more Is needed to convince the
Terlest mossback or plodding yeoman
that drainage Is an absolute necessity In
San Antonio?
Tins tire department Is Inaugurating

succeed.
I'mawKNT Airnun Is 5.1 years old and

country.
AxL'MUKitof new buyers in the wool
market of this city the last few days has
had the effect of stiffening up the prices
very materially.
Ami now 'tis said' Dr. Itoberts en-
dorses Sul IEoss for Oovernor; what of
that ; the venerable alcalde Is "no longer
In politics."
Foirr Wouni Is preparing to entertain
the firemen of the State with royal hos-
pitality next month. The Kort never
does things by halves.
i'noM the ashes of his dire defeat will
Morrison l'ha-nlx like arise and lead his
scattered cohorts on until utterly over-
whelmed In November's election.
As ran as the Democratic "tarlfffor
revenue only" wing is concerned the
only Issue of the campaign Is dead very
dead. Morrison did it with his little
bill.
Kx-SfXHKTAnY Ulaink Is CO years old
but still a handsome man and has the
tnergy of a man of 10. His hair is white
but his eye Is bright and his step quick
nnd firm.
Kaniuixitm and Morrlsonltes have
met and mighty giants have been pitted
against each on the tariff Issue. The
strength of the Democratic party follows
Uandall.
A hatch of Waco doctors have declared
the hydrant water or that city after
careful analysis as healthful as the aver-
nge well water. The demand for beer
will now be less.
It u barely possibly that Charles Ford
ended his own miserable life because of
the mortification be experienced on see-
ing Frank James made a greater hero
than ever and that too by his bloody
deeds.
Waco has no such White Elephant aa
San Antonio and Fort Worth but from
the tremendous water excitement rag-
Ing there her contract with the Water
company might truthfully be styled a
"White" elephant.
Tiik Increased cotton manufacturing
enterprises In Augusta Oeorgla will
alone require 70000 bales of cotton In
addition to last year'a demand. How
much will San Antonio's manufacturing
Interests (?) require.
That white man's Republican party
whlcti Is the latest craze of Dallas might
amount to something If the party had a
fighting chance In the State but as It Is
It simply is a fool move upon the part of
a few self-styled leaders.
As a practical question did It never

Tim ltlchmond Dispatch says! "If Mr
Tllden will persist In a reticence unbe
coming n great man the Democratic
party should give him nottco that his
silence will b c construed as an abandon-
ment on his part of nil claim upon tlio

Font Woiitii vtlth a variety den
known as "My Theatre" situated on Its
principal thoroughfare which advertises
Itself every day by having a grand
chariot and brass band driven about the
streets undertakes to read San Anto-
nio n moral lecture nnd suggests n mode
by which the Vaudeville ran be blotted
out of existence.
Tiik papers throughout the State have
somehow got an Idea that San Antonio
was disgruntled oer the tender of Gov-
ernor Ireland of the Coininlssloncrshlp
of the New Orleans fair to Mr. Harden-
brook. The I.hiiit Is willing to put up
dollars against peanuts that there are
not a dozen persons In the city who are
or were In nny manner Interested In the
matter.
A ir.OMih.T llepubllcan living In Snn
Antonio having seen the Hem going the
rounds of the press that n majority of
the Texas delegates to Chicago will vole
for Illalne for the nomination for Presi-
dent oilers to make n bet of $300 that a
majority will vote on the first ballot for
Arthur another $M that 13 or the 20
will vote for Arthur another $300 that

I.x a rii.hcii advocating the Ilurcnii of
Ijibor Statistics t'ongiessinan Worth-
Ington of Illinois truly said : "The sta-
bility of the Government the order of
society tho execution or the laws and
the absence or mob violence nnd public
tumults dejiend largely upon tho em-
ployment the comfort and the prosperi-
ty of tho working people. We cannot
close our eyes In the fact that tho seeds
of communism scattered broadcast In
the labor centers of Kurope.ni countries
havo also been sown in many of our
large cities and aro In danger of produc-
ing fruit. It Iscaslertocheckthospread
of communism by removing tho causes
which tend to produce It than to put It
down and stamp It out when men nnd
women nre maddened by hunger and
want of employment. The sword nnd
the bayonet nre dangerous Instruments
and cut both ways when turned against
the bone and sinew of the land. Itlsthe
part or wisdom then not only to Inves-
tigate thoroughly every agency that
aflects the tolling millions but also to
conduct that Investigation In such a
thorough honest nnd Impartial manner
as shall convince every working man
that the Government Is In earnest In
making his condition as tolerable and
prosperous as legislation and nn Impar-
tial administration of the law ran
secure."
Kx-AnoiiNur Uknuiai. Hutu Wauox
has written a biography of lien Thomp-
son nnd tbe Immense sale that has at-
tended the publication thereof Is anoth-
er proof of the morbid curiosity existing
In the majority of reople. lien Thomp-
son would never have achieved any
marked distinction In any other role
than that of a desperado nor would he
have been favored with n biography If
he had conducted himself as n respecta-
ble citizen of ordinary calibre. It would
be Interesting and Instructive to study
comparatively tho character of eminent
men and great criminals. It would bo
found that the actuating force In both
sections Is due tonn exaggerated vanity.
There. Is a certain portion of humanity
who as a writer said of Voltaire Is
"burnt up by ambition." Ambition Is
nn Inordinate desire for power or emi-
nence too often accompanied with In
difference as to the means or obtaining
It. Hence a man may have a large
phrenological development or this
overruling passion and yet possess no
correspondingly Intellectual power to
direct It In a legitimate field or action.
It Is the Irrcslstable and power-
ful sway or ambition that has
been and will be the preponderating
Influence In good and evil for all time.
How true lien Johnson was when be
said:
Ambltbn like h turn lit re'er looks back.
And Is swelling- and ibo Isst uRVcIlon.
A hl.ti inltul tan in i.in 1 Inir both a nbil

lien Thompson desired notoriety; he
wos permeated with 'vnultlngambltlon
which o'erleaps Itself and falls on the
other side." This exactly expresses
Ben Thompson's character. It Is not In-
tended to Infer that Hen Thompson
wouiu have wanted to attain eminence
In any praiseworthy channel of life even
If circumstances had altered the course
of his existence because the grosser
elements In bis nature would ultimately
attain the ascendency and Inevitably
drift him Into thoso channels where he
fancied the greatest chance to satisfy
the cravings of his ambition lay. A man
of lien Thompson's stamp could never
be petty; whatever he undertook must
be or a nature to attract universal at-
tention. Unable to achieve distinction
In fields laudable he sought It else-
where with fatal' success. A community
secretly admires the boldness and In-
genuity or great criminals whether it bo
the gigantic frauds of a bank forger or
the determined and successful defiance
of the powers that be with the same
feelings (If perfectly analyzed) as they
do the marvelous diplomacy of a great
statesman or tbe wonderful production
ot the Inventor's genius the Intensity
of these feelings of odmiratlon being
gauged by the relative results of good or
evil. These Ideas may appenrheterodox
but they will ir oarefolly studied be
found to contain a large factor or truth.
A singular corroboration of the fore-
going may be cited in Jesse James re-
garding his entanglements with the
strong arm of the law. It Is evident
tuat James possessed many ardent ad.
mlrers and friends amonc the most in.
Iluentlal and wealthy of the State; these
admirers were only too ready to exert
themselves on his behalf to defend him
from the consequences or his nefarious
deeds. This consideration followed him
to the grave and a comforting sermon
wa piously delivered over Ids remains.
A species of reflected rame fell upon his
wife who availed herselfof her husband's
notoriety to start on n lecturing tour
throughout the country. Anything
further In support or this argument Is
unnecessary hut these reflections will
In no way detract from tho sale or Gen-
eral lluck Walton's book.
" " yTuThT-
Voullils the tlmeofhope. The world
lies all before Mr nnd untried. The
youth havo not learned their own weak-
ness by many failures nor the dread
possibilities that lie In tho future. The
past Is too brief to occupy them long
and Us farthest point too nenr to be
clothed In airy purple which draws tho
eyo and stirs the heart. They nre con-
scious of Increasing powers which crave
occupation. It seems Impossible but
that success and Joy shall be theirs. So
they lite for n 11 1 1 lo while In a golden
haze. They look down from I heir peaks on
the virgin forests of the now world that
roll away to the shining waters of the
West. Hut they soon dlscoter what hard
work the march Is what monsters lurk
in the leafv coerls. what diseases hover
among the marshes how short a distance
ineycan see nncuinnu nowiarou is

unless Indeed hy those who havo fixed
their hopes on God nnd so get through
the march much better because bo It

I heard the other night n story nbout
Wnttcrson writes n correspondent. Not
long ago ho was In Indianapolis. Thcro
ho sat down to n game or poker with
"Dick" llrlght who was recently scr-
fcant-at-arms or the Senate and tho
'resident or the city horse rnllrond.
V atterson had irreot luck 'liic money
rolled In upon him. When ho wns nbout

could spend It. "I will ride home In the
best hack the city affords" be said. He-
fore n great while he liiid S.VXH) In win-

leading each one" wns his exultant an-
nouiicemcnt. From that moment his
luak turned. Kverv cent In li s nlle wns
gone and his pooket book began to
