murderers.
—We have received a communication
from Kioinitia, which we hope onr friend
will excuse us. for not publishing. It is
an attack upon squire White, and we do
not care to yield the columns of the
Standard to a controversy that could
only interest the people of that one sec-
tion. We cauuot publish oue side with-
out in justice yielding to the other, and
oar friends will have to fight it out among
themselves. We should not have publish-
ed the first communication ot "Taylor
Scout'' but we had always understood
that Squire White was a Republican, and
we havu't got that consideration tor a Re-
publican that we have for a Democrat
They have generally shown themselves
unworthy of it. But we now learn that
Squire White is Republican, Democrat
aud Greenbacker. and we shall have to
let hiin alone.
—Hon. D. B. Culberson and Hon. G.
W. Jones discussed the political issues of
the day in onr town last Saturday, they
had a good audience aud spoke an hour
and a half each, and rejoined tor half an
hour Cu'ibersons speech was worthy of
him which is as much to say that it was
able and eloquent. He handled the ques-
tion ot finance with a masters hand and
presented the record of the Democratic
party in refintation of charges made
against it by the Greenbacker*. Col. Jouec
made an able aud interesting speech and
showed himself a man of no ordinary
ability. But the task ot detending the
Greenback party was too much for him
and he was discomfited in the oigument,
There are very few Green backers in this
county aud no converts were made by
Col. Joues. O'Neil was preseut but did
not speek but will we understand canvass
the county.
—The Demacratic convention meets in
Dallas next Tuesday to make nominations
for State offices. It will lie well attend-
ed ami there is scarcely a doubt that Rob-
erts will be noiuiuated for Governor on
first ballot Lubbock will also go in with-
out trouble for Treasurer. For the other
positions there will be strong contests but
we think it pretty well settled that Story
ot Caldwell county will be the nominee
tor Lieut. Gov. For Attorney Gen. Tem-
pleton and MoLeary seem to lead with
about equal strength with the result very
doubtful. But the greatest scrambled i s
'for comptroler. The number ot candidates
for t':e position has not been added up.
That office bears about the same relation
to State politics that Assessor ot Taxes
does to eouuty aud nearly every body
that wants office runs for it. It would
be rash to gess at the nominee*
—1-
—We learn from S. E. Watsou Esq.
that too negroes Joe aud Hannibal who
went from this county to Kausas last
winter have written to their friends
for means to return ou. They are
very much dissatisfied with their north-
ern home and make extravagant promi-
ses to any oue that will help them back.
We don't think there were more than four
or five families 1 ft this county.
—Lamar and Fauniu 'counties held
their Democratic meetings last Saturday.
Both counties instructed for Roberts and
Culberson, and Lamar instructed for
Gaines for Judge "first last and all the
time" Lamar also nomiuated Lightfoot for
the Senate aud Fannin nominated Cheno-
with for the Legislator.
Fauniu we understand took no action
on the subject ot district Judge although j
Judge Evans.one of her citizeuts is sup-
posed to be a candidate.

—Col. 11. W. Lougliery has withdrawn
from the Marshall Herald and has issued
a prospectus foi the "Daily and Weekly
Democrat'' to be published in Jefferson.
The Col. has a large experience and re-
cognized ability as a Journalist and we
congratulate Jefferson upon his return to
her. The Jimplecute is we believe the
only paper now published there and it is
a Greenback orgau. We wish the Dem-
ocrat success.
Tatior; Texas, i
July °8tli, 1880. J
Ed. Standard I see in your colams. that
you are in receipt of a communication from
Mr. BurrBillingsley,in reply to Taylor Scout,
and that you declined to publish Mr. B's. let-
ter, because it would provoke "hard feelings
and a controversy." On first impulse I thought
I would not write any more on the subject,
but after reflection, I deem it just to Squire
White, Mr. Billingaley and Taylor Scout, that
I say a little more in explanation, as I do rot
court nor desire a controversy or bad feelings
with any man. First, when I said that the
general opinion was that F. M. White was the
"many voters" I only stated the expressed
opinion of a goodly number of voters. Sec-
ondly, Mr. B. says "the attack on Squire
White was unjust and uncalled for, and that
when Scout writes again to attack a man that
he sign his own name." I beg leave to state
that I did not make any attack on Squire
White's personal character, neither do I de-
sire to eitliAr directly nor indirectly, for per-
sonally I have naught against him, but I did
not know that it was uujust to criticise the
official acts pf any public servant, even from
the President of the United States down to
constable, the J. P. not excluded, and that
Squire White has made mistakes or commit
ted errors in his official acts. I do believe
and am not alone in that belief, which Squire
White and Mr. B. will find out next No vein
ber. Respectfully, '
Taylor Scoct.

OBITUARY.
' "Suffer little children to come unto me and
forbid them not, for of such is the kingdom of
heaven."
Entered into rest, after a short illness, a
Clarksville, Texas, on Friday July 30th, 188 ),t
Eva Clare, infant daughter of Charles and
Einma Wilson. May God in His tender mcr-
cy sanctify to her bereaved parents this dis-
pensation ot His pro\ idence, inscrutable
though it may seem and may they be enabled
with perfect trust in Him, to feel that "He
doetli all things well." Though the gates of
pearl have opened twice and miuistrant an-
gels have each time borue a little tender lamb
from their arms to nurture it in heaven, may
they fully appreciate the blessed transition of
the dear little ones from these flitting things
ot time to the blissful arid unchanging reali-
ties of eternity, may they look up iu faith and
love, and bowing submissive to His will say
with all fullness of heart, "The Lord gave,
and the Lord hath taken away; blessed be
the name of the Lord."
Clarksville Texas, i
July 30th. j
To the voters of red river county.
Gentlemen:—In offering myselt again
before you for the office of Conuly Treas-
urer, I do so beleiviug that I have made
you a good honest and faithfnl officer, and
that I am now better [prepared to make
you a better one, being more fully acquant-
ed with the duties of the office. And al-
so because I need the office to assist me
to make an honest living for myself and
family which consists of a wife iu very
feeble health and four little girls the old-
est one only uine years old. My reason
gentleman ior addressing you tlir-ougli the
county papers is that the duties of the of-
fice requires more or less of my attention
iu the office every day, and I am not able
to ride ou horseback, and to have to hire
a horse and buggy to make a thorough
canvass of the county would be a greater
expense than I feel aole to bear. And be-
side I am known to nearly every man
who has lived any length of time in the
county and thev can tell those who do
not know me all about me and my official
acts, whether good or bad. In regard to
the payments of scrip otherwise than as
the law directs, all minors to that effect
are utterly fase and without foundation
aud outy electioneering tricks to entrap
the unwary. I am fhll prepared to meet
aud relute them all and earnestly- desire
an investigation of any and all of my
official acts.' In regard to my being
rich, I was not aware of the fact untill 1
became a coudiilate for re-election. Now
gentleineu thanks to the voters of this
county they gave me the office and by
close attention and the strictest economy
I have been euabled to live moderately
well to pay all iuv just debts and buy a
little home of my own which consists ot
one half block of ground and a tolerably
nice and good house ou it, that is every
dollar's worth of property 1 own and I
have never used one dollar of the people
or countys money that I was not iustly
eutitlcd to, as all can testify to who have
ever acted as either comissioners or grand
jurors since 1 have held the office, I have
now made an honest and tail'statement of
the tacts in the case as the records will
show upon investigation and I earnestly
desire that all who doubt will investigate,
my official course,
Now gentlemen if you are satisfied with
mv past official record and can conscien-
tiously support me again I shall be very
thankful and shall in the future ns iu the
past endeavor to make you au honest
faithful and attentive officer ever looking
to your interest as well as my own and
the weltare of the connty.
llespectfnlly your ob't., ner't.,
G, L. M< Treasurer.
Another wise estimable young man
who recently joined au archery club,asked
the fair being whose striped liose lie some
time hoped to have the honor of buying,if
she would not like to became a toxopho-
lite; but she said her family had been
Presbyterians so long that she should feel
quite lost in any other denomination.
"It's not the phisky a man drinks that
makes him dizzy," said O'Flahartv, "but
it's lukin, at the bartender's diamond
through the bottom ivthe tumblers.''
Fannie Roos,. a pretty but thievish
young woman, was discharged from cus-
tody at Paducali Ky. Within a block of
the jail she met Jhon Mathias, a respect-
able farmer, who was visiting the city.
Their acquaintance began on the spot,and
before night they were married. In ad-
dition to the usual ceremony, the bride
took a solemn oath of reformation.
It is understood that Gen. Grant will
receive a salary ot $25,000 as president of
the New Mexican Mining Company, which
position he has just accepted. He did
not close with the offer without considera-
tion and the principal object of his visit
to New Mexico seems to have been to ex-
amine the mines of which he is to have
the control He is not expected, however
to give a very close supervision to its af-
fairs, beiug looked upon as a figurehead
rather than an active manager his name
being used to give the company prestige
Various propositions were made to him iu
Colorado, a very general desire being man-
ifested to take him into all new mining
schemes. While in New Mexico he be-
came satisfied of the value ot the mines
owed by the company with which he has
connected himself. It is safe to say that
Gen. Graut will be worth many times his
salary to the company, and that it was a
shrewd stroke of policy to secure him,
e\en if the figures are high.—[N. O. Dem
ocrat.
A WORD TO
CNICS AND UNB1LI1V ERS.
We are sorry to say that there still ex-
ists a few of this class; and as we have
their interests very much at heart, it is
our desire to brush away some of the cob-
webs of unbelief that still obscure their
vision as they gaze in our direction. We
earnestly invite the attendance of these
gentlemen this week to see our SECOND
BIG DRIVE in
GROCEEIES.
Not to buy a dollars worth ot goods, but
simply to induce a permanent belief in the
fact that we never made an offer, no mat
ter how extraordinary IT MAY SEEM,-
without backing it up to the rigid letter
of law. We want all of our worthy fellow
citizens who still waver between belief
and skepticism to
CALL OH liS THIS MM.
We do not want your indorsement of
the lacts set forth iu our advertisement,
We make no claims on either your money
or good will unless we can earn them by
fair representations. It has been our
good fortune withiu the last week, to be
come possessed of some good bargains in
Collee, Sugar, Molasses,
Bice, Tobacco, Snuff
Whiskey, Flour, Bacon,
Corn, Oats, Meal, Bran,
Lime, Shingles «Sfc, The price
which we propose to sell these goods at,
will make some of the gentlemeu who car-
ry assorted stocks open their eyes to the
full extent allowed by nature, and cause
every true lover of pluck aud enterprise
to cry out BRAVO for
