“The principal aim of brewers” said
Mr. Olio Koehler to a Light man ’ has
long been to furnish a beer that rhould be
satisfying to the palate of good b»dy
clear color nourishing refreshing and al
the same possessing the lea»l a nount
of alcohol so that a man might diiuk be
refreshed nourished and yet not have
the least chance of aetiing drunk bueh
a beer Is imp n'tant in any country but
more -o Is it in the south and in tropical
countries. It is also of additional impor-
tance in as much as it reduces ilie use of
pernicious ardent spirits and furnishes a
liquor that even temperance men can im-
bibe with safety. i'ne miroiuctiou of

Austin Tex. Jan. 141893.
Special to Sai* Antonio Light:
Work is beginning in earnest in both
bouses of the Legislature for it seems that
almost every member has some particular
bill that he is very anxious to bring be-
fore the house in the next few days and
you can see them in all parts of the house
and in the committee rooms writing and
re-writing consulting and studying over
their respective schemes. Among the
fir-tthat will come before ’he bouse will
be the question of convict labor fmprove-
rmntot public roads and the protection
of the intern sts of stockmen and ranchers.
An appropriation for mileage of the
members will come up tomorrow and will
meet with little opposition.
Some of the defeated applicants for
offices hid the srit to apply for positions
of auot her kind after being defeated once
and some of them have been successful
but the main portion of them have taken
themsehes home and this leaves the city
with only nhi tit ha f of its visitors.
Hong and Reagan are very thick and

that they have the same chance as the
merage H"gg mini tho Po t wants no
black flag between the two factions. Be-
fore the meeting the lending sentiment of
the ptomlnent H"gg men was to black
flag the other fellows tint the outlook
now is that they will be very easv to
make terms with. Many of the “push”
think that Mills is 10-iig ground right

crous
The decision of Justice Fisher on the
Dam Bond injunction suit Is n< t as fav-

are not questioned and there are only
twoqti'S'lons remaining and they seem
obviously in the city's favor. It is beyond
a doubt that it was the intention of the
citv government to builo this structure
and that it is necessary lo the good of the
town and the people.

The following is from the official call
for the convention and states the mission
of the society in i hese words: “The mis-
sion of the National American Woman
Suffrage association is to awaken public
opinion to the necessity of bringing the
practice of the United States government
into harmony with its professed princi-
ples. Professing Itself a government of
tho people it is actually an oligarchy of
men. Professing that the citizens of each
slate shall be entitled to all privileges
nod Immunities In the several states this
United States Government permits the
states delib *rately to deprive one half Its
people its women of the only legitimate
means of taking part in tho government
the use of the ballot.- Such glaring in-
consistency between profesdon and prac-
tice is to be condemned in the interest
of public mo alitv. I” laboring to ob-
tain their enfrenchhement. women work
ther fore no’ only for them elve*. bin
for the establishment of ns’l uial honor
and the elevation of the whole human
race ”
i’o Elizabeth Cadv Stanton belongs tho
hon ir of calling the firs' Women’s Kizhta
Convention the United States ami the
still greater honor of having formal ited
Hie principles which for f >i tv years have
guided tills great m'veinent for ihe ad-
vaneemeniof women.
Mrs. Until >n was president of the so-
cleiy until three years ago. Then she ro-
sigi.ed on account of age and the Him of
honorary presidi'itt was created for her.
She was succeeded in I he office of presi-
dent by Miss Susan B. Anthony of
whose re-uiectlon this year there ts no
doubt.
