THE SUNDAY LIGHT
BUNDAY MARCH 8 1896
SHORT SNAPPERS.
If you are going to Austin on the
24th shine up your razor.
The Dally Express keeps up it’s
boom for Brer. Cuney and Cas-
siano.
As the Light predicted the out-
fall sewer will not be built of con-
crete.
The Mission garden and McKin-
ley delegates will be winners at St.
Louis.
Let the city charter be amended
and cut all the big salaries half
in two.
The new city budget in its trim-
mings still left too many contin-
gent items.
If Ed. Froboese does not run for
county tax collector some other
good republican will.
The new budget only trimmed
off the little tender buds; did not
touch the branches.
Gold-headed walking can es will
not be near so useful as a razor at
Austin March 24th.
The intention of “shaking the
coons” by calling the meeting at
Fredericksburg failed.
The colored brethren who went
to Fredrlcksburg had a four-horse
team and Nat as tbelr guest.
“The reason we called our meet-
ing at Fredrlcksburg was to get
rid of the Big Mob of Negroes.”
The republicans of Bexar county
will demand more than two of the
offices at the coming election.
The scheme to utilize the big
sewer pipe factory to manufacture
voters for the fall election will be
watched.
Brer. Cuney should not fall to
introduce a resolution at Austin
making the Express the official
Coony organ.
Nat’s change of heart from a
Bourbon democrat will be a mis-
take if be falls Into the black and
tan soup pot.
Captain Thad Smith has no am-
bition toward congress; he will be
perfectly satisfied to hold down his
present fat job.
While Night Clerk Easton is out
working up convention proxies
the budget committee trimmed off
his salary a little.
Mr. C. K. Brenemann has been
called upon to lead the regular
Mission Garden delegates to the
Austin convention.
If Geo. W. Brackenridge makes
up his mind to run for governor
the democratic candidate will have
to get up and hustle.
The Bexar county republicans
have thrown down the “mitten
now let the democratic warrior
from the Wabash speak.
Let the republicans come to-
gether and organize a league club
in every ward In the city and the
ring politicians will tremble.
The Express should look np the
new law on advertising of tax-
•ollector’s sale before wasting so
much taffy on Capt. Cassiano.
While the fees have been re-
duced the Increased valuation in
property raises the county tax
collector’s salary about a (1000 a
year.
The colored boys who went tn
Fredericksburg fared well and
“rested well” and rode back with
a “illy white” behind a four-horse
team.
Moses Ellis who wanted to carry
all the “niggers” into Mexico is
rushing around the state gather-
ing up proxies for the Cooney
convention at Austin.
With (20000 corruption fund
3000 alien voters and elected by
only 43 majority will make a
sorry showing trying to run
against Judge Noonan.
The meeting called at Fredericks
burg instead of keeping the “nig-
gers out” forced the public-spirited
politicians to go down into their
pockets and foot the bills.
The I<ight has been asked what
distinguished white
bunked with Prof. Jiih at Fred-
ericksburg? We are positive it
was not Reporter Wasson.
The letters (which have not been
burned) written by Judge Broad-
bent of Del Rio do not tel) the
same story as the reporter’s inter-
view in the Express on the Cuney-
Ogden-Terrell irregulars.
There’s a little “windy” lawyer
intown who Is mad at the Light.
His little bluster and threats will
neither frighten nor intimidate us
when it becomes necessary to
“speak out in meeting ”
Why is the effort being made
just before the next election to
trim off a piece of Wilson county
to be added to Bexar county
whore the sewer pipe factory is
located; is it not for the purpose
of manufacturing illegal voters?
A German reader of the Light
writes that when the eminent
engineers examined the sewers
they just went down into a man-
hole with a lamp and halloed
“Peek-a-Boo” at each other and
came forth and reported “the work
is all right.”
The mob convention held at Con-
vention hall selected four colored
men to act as republican delegates
who war! active supporters of Col.
1 W./Houston the democratic
Hkdi Iwo during the last congres-
section. Yet they claim
gathering was a re-
meeting. d

Gus. Kerker the musical direc-
tor of the New York Casino has
succeeded in setting the song of
the mosquito to music. Charles
Dickson the American millionaire
in the “Lady Slavey” company
sings the part greatly to the de-

audiences.
Because the critics of the New
York Times and New York Jour-
nal did not praise “Gentleman
Joe” and Hammerstein’s music in
“Marguerite” the Aronsons and
Hammerstein ordered out their ad-
vertisements in those papers. Must
critics puff all shows because the
“house” advertises ? If so what is
a critic to do but publish the cast
of characters and the box parties ?

The Reform Republican Call.
In today’s Issue will be fcund the
call for the reform republican state
convention at Houston on the 20th
of April next. It was thought by
some that the date might be
changed to suit other gatherings
but this was found impossible in
order to suit everyone. So the 20th
is the date. Delegates can reach
Houston on Sunday and by prompt
work the business can be perfected
in time to enable those attending
returning to their homes on the
night of the 20tb or 21st in time to
attend to other meetings or ce'e-
brations.
Hou t>n is prepared to give the
republicans a royal welcome. While
the call only pertains to delegates
it is the wish of everyone that as
many republicans as can do so at-
tend whether regularly elected as
delegates or not.
The reform movement pertains
strictly to party organization; there
is no divergence as to the princi-
ples and policies of the republican
party.
Tne reform party demand such
an organization that will bring
out the worth and respectability of
the party and be able to take care
of itself in elections not be a suc-
cession of howling discord and
mobs gotten together on the eve of
state conventions to boost the
ambition of a few bosses and re-
lapse into nothingness after the
convention is over. Decent men
are tired of this and as the organ-
ization holds out no hope for relief
a ne v one is resorted to. The cry
of “liily white” is a senseless one
originating from democratic
sources but even this appellation
has grown to be respectable and to
be a “lil)y”is not considered to be
a disgrace but a badge of
honor and decency in com-
! parison to the demoralized
! howling mobs tjiat have made the
name of republicanism a disgrace
in Texas.
The coming convention in
j Austin will emphasize the need of
’ the reform movement and we
I hope every county in the state will
have at Hous-
ton on tie 2Utb of A. pill.
The Illusion convention will be
a credit tl the state of S'exas.

LETTER WRITING
For the Sunday Light.)
Letter-writing is an art which
but few persons acquire to perfec-
tion inasmuch as it demands an
idiomatic and unstudied style.
Declamation rhetorical flourishes
argumentation and erudition are
sadly out of place in a familiar let-
ter to a friend. It is easier to write
an essay a slashing review and
criticism a speech or a chapter in
a historical work than it is to com-
pose a first rate letter. Tho letters
of Madame De Sevigne are neither
learned nor profound but it is
doubtful whether any man dead
or living could have composed
them. The narrative style smooth
and flowing easy and clear is best
suited for letter writing but one
can count on his Angers the men
who have been masters of the nar-
rative style of writing. As a rule
women express their thoughts
idiomatically and fall maturely
into the narrative style and for
that reason they excel men in
writing letters. Women seldom
ransack their memory for high-
sounding words and they write
pretty much as they converse in a
lively and natural manner. That
is just what is wanted in a let-
ter. The truth is we do not
look for or desire profundity eru-
dition argument and declamation ।
In a familiar letter from a friend.
We can find an abundance of those
things in the books in our libraries.
It is a great mistake to use cant
words and phrases in a familiar
letter yet it is quite a common
practice. It is in wretched tatte
to lug cant words into conversa-
tion but it is simply inexcusable
to write them even in a letter to a
friend. Recently I read an ac-
count of a reporter of the debates
in the British parliament who in
the hurry of writing out a report
of the speech of an eminent speak-
er who had quoted tho saying
“tho child is the father of the
man” wrote the “kid is the father
of the man” thinking the proof
reader would correct it by sub-
stituting the word child for “kid.”
Imagine his chagrin and horror
when he read bis report of the
speech of a distinguished public
man to find his report represented
him to have said “the kid is father
to the man.” It is really vulgar
to interlard one's conversation
with cant phrases yet both men
and women of fair education and
considerable pretentions to gentil-
ity and good breeding are scarcely
able to utter a sentence without
lugging in a cant phrasebear!ng the
the mint stamp of the slums which
it was coined. The use of cant
words and phrases insensibly be-
comes a fixed habit or the mother
tongue of such as are addicted to
the using of such phrases. It
shocks my nerves to hear girls and
women who plume themselves on
their good breeding punctuate
their conversation with cant
phrases with the odor of the
slums still exhaling from them.
It is quite easy to contract a bad
habit bnt very difficult to over-
come it and for this reason par-
ents should neither nse cant words
and phrases themselves nor allow
their children to use them in their
hearing.
Can’t words and phrases origi-
nate among the uneducated rude
and vulgar and on that account
should be perpetually quarantined
by persons of education good taste
and refined manners. The afflu-
ence of the English language is so
great that it stands in no sort of
need of words imported from the
slums where vulgarity reigns
supreme.
The idiomatic style is neither low
nor vulgar as many suppose it to
be The Bible furnishes an excel-
lent specimen of the idiomatic
style. The words therein used
are plain clear on a level with the
most ordinary understanding and
generally of only two syllables.
They are Anglo-Saxon and full of
pith and marrow. The words
drafted into the English language
from the Latin by Dr. Samuel
Johnson and other scholars who
regarded the Latin language as in-
comparably superior to any mod-
ern languageare composed of never
less than three syllables and some-
times are the “seven-footed words”
ridiculed by a Latin poet. The
Bible deserves to be studied by
those who desire to acquire
the very best style possible
for writing. The idiomatic
style is suited to all subjects.
While a letter should by
all means be idiomatic in
style yet it can be spiced
with a neatly told anecdote adorn-
ed by au apt classical allusion or
poetical quotation or enlivened by
pen pictures of natural scenery and
of persons. There is room and
verge enough in a letter to a friend
for humor wit satire and pathos
and the idiomatic style is of all oth-
ers the best suited to these things.
Rabelais the greatest humorous
writer of whom France can boast
was always Idiomatic; Cervantes
tbeflnest humorous writer of Spain
wrote his “Don Quixote” in the
idiomatic style and Dean Swift
and the other humorous writers of
England were peculiarly idiomatic
in style. A stilted and pompous
style is always objectionable but
it is absolutely unpardonable in a
familiar letter to a friend. Women
very rarely write in a stilted style
and as they feel with warmth and
express their feelings with v i vacity
they seldom dash off a stupid let-
ter. Indeed a woman of an ordi-
nary education and a limited range
of reading will often com pose with-
out any effort a better letter than
a man of culture will turn off.
There has been a marked falling
off within the last century in the
degree of attention paid to the
epistolary art. Friends nowadays
correspond with each other only at
long intervals and as men now
live in a hurry and never enjoy a
bit of leisure they dash off their
letters in a hurry and in careless
slipshod fashion in order to get
through with an irksome task. In
former times public men inter-
changed letters quite frequently
with one or two intimate friends
and interspersed their letters with
frequent allusions to public men
and to public measures which
were on the anvil or in contem-
plation. After their death these
letters which were never designed
by their authors for publication
have been interwoven into their
biographies and serve to throw
light on public affaire as well as to
give a clearer view of the authors
of these letters. There is a won-
derful charm in the letters of Wil-
liam Wirt incorporated in his life
by his biographer and they serve
to give us a clearer Insight into the
mind temperament and character
of Wirt. John Randolph of Roa-
noke is generally regarded as a
heart’ess cynic who was merciless
in hii invectives and wantonly
cruel in his sarcasm but his let-
ters to his friends published in
his life present him in a much
more amiable light as well as at-
test the enduring strength and
tenderness of his friendship. It is
to be regretted that our literary
and public men do not write more
letters than they do to their inti-
mate personal friends. They could
not bequeath to posterity a more
acceptable legacy than to leave
such private and confidential let-
ters behind them. Such letters
would explain and account for ap-
parent inconsistences in their con-
duct and throw light on the
characters of many prominent pub-
lic men as well as on the why and
wherefore of the rise and fall of
public men. We see the actors on
the stage but the private and
confidential letters by persons
who were admitted behind the
scenes would give us a
view of the actors when
they were off the stage and
divested of their stage costumes.
It was a saying of Voltaire that
“no man was a hero to his valet”
and many an admired public man
would appear in quite a different
light if we could see him face to
face in his unguarded moments
and not “through a glass darkly.”
Thomas Jefferson was a consid-
erable letter writer and his epistol-
ary style was generally a good one
Most of his political movements
were started by means of his pri-
vate letters to personal and politi-
cal friends as he unfolded a plan
of action in these letters and urged
his friends to exploit such policy
through articles in the public
press. It was in this manner that
Jefferson moulded and guided pub-
lic opinion and dislodged the tri-
umphant federalists from the
strong hold of federal power.
I love to read the private letters
of the literary and public men of
former times because the perusal
of them makes me feel as though 1
was having a friendly chat with
them after they had quitted the
public stage and put off their stage
costume.

ALAMO MONUMENT.
Plan to Erect the Shaft Not abandoned as
Rumored.
The report of the action of the
Alamo monument association in
donating all its money and pro-
perty toward interior Improve-
ments of the Alamo has created
tho impression that the associa-
tion is defunct. A reporter called
on General Bee yesterday to
ascertain the authenticity of the
rumor and elicited a denial from
the general. The association was
chartered under the laws of Texas
in 1879. But it has received life-
long assiduous attention from
the slingsand arrows of outrage-
ous fortune; its secretaries have
died leaving a painful dearth of
memoranda; its banks have
failed; and the recovery from all
its reverses has been so lament-
ably slowthat a thorough ransack-
ing of itscoffers discloses but $2500
assets. The present needs of the
Alamo being urgent and the
action being allowable under the
charter it has been decided to
donate this sum to beautifying the
interior of the Alamo without
the project of building the monu-
ment being in the least disturbed.
