REFEninsa to the publicdeuoument
of the French sensation, the Galveston
News observes that "the French Re-
publicans aro about exiling the repre-
sentatives of monarchy; the anar-
chists are attempting the upheaval of
the foundations of society ; the nihil-
ists are plotting the death of emperors
and the slaughter ol' kings; but the
shadows of despotism, deep, dark>
hopeless, darken ,the ancient halls of
the Muscovite capitol, and the sen-
tries of the absolute czar pace beneath
the walls of imperial St. Petersburg.

♦un t •* The Ddfas Herald should
know its correspondents and bo sure
its sources of information are neither
corrupt nor deliberately slanderous.
Its statement concerning small-pox
in Fort Worth is a slander too silly to
he answered, but the public has a
;ht to know the wretch who goes
about with such a leprous lie on liis
tongue. The Herald owes it to its
own good name, and to the good peo-
ple of Fort Worth, to hunt the fiend
to his hole and smoke lnjri out. There
has been no case of small-pox here
that anybody knows of, and it is
scarcely possible to conceive how it
was that the usually fair and honora-
ble gentlemen who manage and edit
the Ileraid suffered themselves so
egregiously imposed upon. Of course
they* will make the proper amende
and be more guarded in the future.

If Mrs. Labouehere had not been so
ungenerous to Mrs. Langtry when she
suppressed the truth in the matter of
ntfct accompanying Mrs. Langtry to Bos-
ton, perhaps the press would not be so
minute in the particulars of her llrst
unhappy marriage. If Mr. Labouehere
had not been so cruel, so untruthful in
his publications about the Princess and
the Marquis of Lorne, the public would
not so greatly relish the reading matter
furnished from his domestic life. The
charity which covers a multitude of
slnjkwould en tend over a multitude of
misfortunes if it were permitted to do so.
Small-pox is widely scattered through
the United States, but sparsely, the
number of cases in each locality like
the conflagrations can easily be told off
on tb ;lingers. Three cases are reported
in Antonio but that creates no panic
ia^L distance as they are under the
f the city physician and in the
he health of Fort Worth
except so far as the influence of
theiiorthers is felt. They have not yet
been quarantined, but they are bracing
—purifying the atmosphere and destroy-
ing the germs of malaria.
Why not establish a home for indi-
gent sailors In Kansas? The bill would
be u good one. As full of tender mercy
as the confinement of veteran Indians
in the old fort at St. Augustine. Florida.

the sailors would soon languish and die,

There was no partiality shown by the

rival was heralded very generally. In
Denver. Colorado, yesterday they
called it extremely cold, the mercury
standing thirteen degrees below zero.
At Yorktown the mercury was twenty*
six degrees below zero. In Yankton
thfl mercury stood twenty-two degrees
below zero, which ought to reconcile
tee residents of this balmy clime to the
chill on the atmosphere here.

THE CREAM OF THE NEWS.
The Galveston News and Times-Dem-
ocrat may fairly be classed as iirst-class
purveyors of news, and yet the fact that
they are edited with ability, dignity and
decency is no hindrance to their useful-
ness or influence.
Yesterday morning Quincv, Illinois,
Newberry, South Carolina, and More-
head, Minnesota, had costly tires. Losses
to owners and to insurance companies
heavy. Defective flues, carelessness
and Incendiaries manage to keep things
warmed up.
If Clara Belle were not one of the most
audacious men on the New York press
he would be the most impudent female
correspondent on this side of the At-
lantic. Bitt a small proportion of his
readers suspect him of being anything
else than a strong minded, out-spoken,
woman, well paid for saying saucy
things.
The failure of several firms catv be
traced directly to the malace of inform-
ers whose Interference could benetlt no
one, and whose meanness precipitated
losses to debtor and creditor. The re-
ported failure of a house In Denison is a
reminder of similar occurrences in
neighboring towns There should be
some law for the punishment of such
criminal falsehood.
A state contemporary mentions Sena
tor Edmunds' bill for a federal com-
mission to investigate railroad transpor-
tation, and pertinently remarks: "It
will some day be acknowledged that
Congressman Reagan is quite sagacious
in his views as to where the remedy lies
for an improper management of the
principal railroad business, which is
nowsagenerally an inter-state business.**
Stormy events are pending In France,
the Bonapartes are stirred up, and the
nation lb restless. Gnmbetta's death
was truly a national calamnlty if it Is to
facilitate revolution in the Republic.
The case of Prince Jerome Napoleon is
Xtallas vs. Tylor.
As is well know Dallas is making a
spirited contest with Tyler before the
legislat ure for the removal of the courts
of litst resort. The Austin correspondent
of the News thus summarises the argu-
ment advanced m behalf of Dallas:
Senator Gibbs, of Dallas, opened the
fight to-day on the removal of the branch
of the courts of last resort from Tyler to
Dallas. In support of this bill lie will
bring to bear statistical figures Govern-
ing points upon which Dallas bases her
claims. It is claimed by Dallas that in
point of wealth, population. Democratic
majorities and railway facilities, she is
entitled to the court. It is alleged that
Dallas is prepared to show that the ten
counties, of which Dallas county Is the
center, pays about $2"><),000 taxes,
and gave a Democratic majority
of 20,000,, whereas the ten coun-
ties, of which Smith county is the cen-
ter, paj n tax of about $140,000, and
gave a Democratic majority of 3,000.
It is further claimed by advocates of
Dallas that the four counties of Cook,
Dallas, Collin and Grayson send more
legal business to the Austin term of the
supreme and appellate courts than
Tyler does In a whole term. Powerful
influences are at work to prove the
claims of Dallas, while delegates from
northwest 'Texas in the legislature are
working up the matter thoroughly
among the members. Dallas claims her
josition to be In the center of the popu-
ation ef northwestern Texas, and hence
entitled to consideration on grounds of
convenience.
Legislative Indications.
The house committee on constitu-
tional amendments spent four hours
Thursday evening in a spirited discus-
sion of the amendment specifying state
tax—severance of state tax from county
tax, provision for road and bridge tax,
and manner of providing school tax,
whether in connection and dependent
on general revenue, or from direct tax-
ation, were the points that excited dis-
cussion. It will be urged by one ele-
ment of the committee, through Mr.
Chambers, of Tarrant, the most ener-
getic spokesman, that, taking the coun-
ties of the state one with another, the
proportion of wealth to population is
the same. This view Is urged in sup-
port of the argument In favor of a school
fund not dependent on specific county
school tax. The sense of the committee
Is firmly In favor of meeting the school
question in a way to build up an exem-
plary school system. It is uetermined
also to decrease the rate of taxation, if
it can be done with reasonable safety.
Mr. Browning's bill provides for the
sale of school lands to parties who ac-
tually settle upon the same. It pro-
vides for classifying into four classes
and sells at $2 for watered agrlculf -rl,
$1.50 for unwatered agricultural,irnir/V
•for watered grazing and $1 t. ' '
watered grazing lands; that the.n
ernor shall appoint two citizens ortheT«o^
county where the land Is situated, upon
recommendation of the commissioners
court, who shall, in conjunction with
the county surveyor, appraise the land ;
Ho person allowed to buy more than one
section of agricultural and two sections
of grazing land; he shall swear that he
proposes to buy the land for himself;
he shall pay one-thirtieth down and
execute his note, payable In thirty
years with Interest at five per cent,
per annum due on the first of January
of each year, and one-thirtieth of the
note shall also be due at the same time,
but such payment of principal may be
deferred till the last payment, lie shall
settle upon the land within six months
after his application to purchase, and
shall occupy the same for two years and
make proof of such settlement as In case
of pre-emption, and upon failure to
make proof of such occupation of land
or the payment of the Interest annually*,
shall forfeit the purctlase. It requires
the payment to be made to the comp-
troller.
It is thought that the stockmen will
unite on the law putting all clashes of
stock on an even footing as to i;rass
privileges.—Galveston News' Corre-
spondent.
Tho editor of the Bucyrus (Ohio)
Forum, visiting Atlanta, says of Gov.
Stephens that he Is almost wrecked
physically but a mental giant; his in-
tellect Beems to Increase in brilliancy as
his physical forces decay. For years he
has been unable to walk, and his di-
minutive body is wheeled about from
place to place as occasion requires. His
appearance is indeed remarkable. So
emaoiated is he that it would seem that
the slightest effort at exertion must re-
sult in complete physical collapse.

Why t.Bi|Si^outh la Conservative and
™ Democratic.
Such, of recent years, lias been the in-
flux of European population, and so
thorough the admixture With the orlgi
nal English stock, that the great major-
ity of the people of the eastern and west-
ern Btates are of foreign birth, or child-
reof foreigners. The lace of society, its
habits, creeds, and local prejudices, are
thoroughly transformed, and to a great
extent "forelgnized." The cotton states
alone are unchanged, and their popula^
lion "native Americans" in a literal
meaning of these terms. 'Ihe south
alone Is governed by the instincts and
creeds or decendants of revolutionary
sires. Germany and Ireland have no
reproduction ot themselves in the south
Perhaps it is for this reason that the
south is wholly Democratic. Its peo
pie Inherited their social conditions and
political theories. The foreign-born
or descended masses of the older north
ern and western commonwealths give
origin and approval to public measures
and schemes of legislation that tend to
Imperialism and centralization.—Amer-
ican Register.
Why Ho Wanted a Christian Hvilti.""
A well known judge in one of the
southern states, in speaking of his
younger days, suvs that some seventv
years ago he had become skeptical, and
that Mr. II , a roble, whole souled
man, whom he revered almost as n fa-
ther, but who was a confirmed deist
though lie had a Christian wife, soon
found him out and endear/ored to instill
in his mind his own deistical notions.
"But he charged me," said the Judge,
'■not to let his wife know that he was a
deist or that I was skeptical." I asked
him why. To which he replied, that If
he were to-marry a hundred times he
would mnrrv only a pious woman.
Again I asked why. < '
•■jjecause," lie said, "If she Is a Chrh
tian it makes her a better wife, a belter
mother, a better mistress and a better
nelghber. If she is poor, it enables her
to bear adversity with patience and for-
titude. If she is rich and prosperous it
lessens her desire for mere show. And
when she comes to die, if she Is in error,
she is as well off as you and I; and if we
are in error, rhe is a thousand times
better off than we can be." I asked
him If he knew of any other error or
system of errors, attended with so many
advantages. Ills reply was evasive.
But what lie said led me to examine the
subject for myself, and 1 often look back
to that conversation as one of the most
important incidents of my life, and to it
I trace my determination to study the
Bible carefully and to examine the sub-
ject for myself, the result of which has
led me to a full and living faith In the
Savior.

The Washington Sentinel, one of the
soundest of Democratic publications.
Inveighs against the Pendleton civil ser-
vice bill. It declares that what "there
is good in it is already in existence and
practice. Its many bad new features, If
put In operation, will astonish the peo-
ple. There is no sincere reform In the
bill. It Is a mere sham from beginning
to end. It will enable the Republicans,
tf thev control the senate, to keep in of-
fice every Republican partisan, though
In 1884 the Democrats elect their presi-
dent. The latter will even be unable to
move the three examining commission-
ers! Under the competitive examina-
tion clause the very best clerks can be
ousted, If it is desired to do so. Whilst
it gives the political party in power a
certain tenure of ofllce, "It gives no
tenure of olHce to the poor clerk."
Abuse of Bx-President Lincoln.
Public opinion and recent legislation
have put opponents of civil service In
such a terrible fright that they do not.
scruple to save themselves by destroy-*
ing others. The latest argument of
these people is that the late President)
Lincoln was a firm believer In the
"spoils" system In the division of offices.
This Is Btmpjjjyjmtraguoos and brutal.
Lincoln took ofllce the nation
was In peril, and he was obliged to dq
all in his power to, and with whatever
means were at his disposal to get rid of
disaffected persons in office, . and t<F
bring the wavering over to the side of
loyalty. Nothing that he did for these
purposes can be decently ueed as _
dents by a party whose leaders ha ve
come so corrupt and mercenary that
they are far more dangerous than tbosft
guilty of outspoken disloyalty.—New

Gosling on the Make.
While Polk was held at San AntonhX
by Marshal Gosling, it was reportdtt
that he concealed liis prisoner from a0
intrusion of reporters and others, not to,
secure Ills greater safety against escapa,.
but to tlrvt uiako sure or the rewara
offered by the state of Tennessee for
Polk's arrest. The Chronicle them
thought this rather a strange charge to.be
made against a government officer WtioSe
duty it was to arrest criminals by virtue
of his office, and not for the sake of a
reward. After Gosling's arrival at
Nashville he Is charged with demand-
ing $10,000 reward before delivering, up
his prisoner. The charge llrst maae at
San Antonio and now repeated at Nash-
ville. gives styong coloring to the cor-
rectness of the report, if It is really,
true, Gosling has done a questionable
thing. The United States should be
served by men of suoh integrity as
would scorn the least approach towards
t he sale of their official ditties.—Cleburne

Railroad Fare in Texas. t
The three cents per mile rate* fo
which the railroads of Texas are by law
limited, is perhaps not too small for
most of them. Where a road runs
throueh a populous section of country
nnd has a large patronage It can afford
to carry passengers for .three cents per
mile. The reports of most of the Texas
roads show that their revenue) have
grown larger instead of smaller since
Ihe law went Into effect, and in this In-
stance, as in many others that havet
come under the observation of railroad
men during the last few years, It has
sufficiently appeared that reduction In.
rates of fare result In more travel. When
these reductions are reasonable the
Huesmaking them have shown greater
gains. But the trouble In Texas iq thai
the state is very large, and some sec-
tions are sparsely settled. Many of its
railroads, too, are long lines extending
tlvough sect lone with ft emaU«e wett $M
those having a large population. On.
lines there ought not to prevail the same
rate for all the divisions. -The Texas
and Pacific, for example, cah make
money on its eastern division when it
can get three ctnt* per mile, but on the
western half of the line ten cents per
mile Is not an unreasonable rate. What
Is needed Is, a revision of the present
law, a readjustment of rates and a classi-
fication Of roads. Upon some of these it
should be lawful to charge six-or eight,
or even ten cents per mile, while on
others the rate could be fixed at three
and four cents per mile. If this dlvin
elon is made the Texas railroad com-
panies would be satisfied, and some en-
couragement would be fu:nlshed to c^p-
ltallsts to Invest more money ||n new
roads in the state.—St. Louis Railway
Review. 1
That Commission.
The letter of Hon. Duncan F. Kenner
resurrected and brought to light by
Senator Beck exposes the real character
of the tariff commission. Mr. Kenner is
the Louisiana member of the coirimls«;
slofi, and was evidently appointed to
represent the sugar planters—a duty
which he promptly recognized and
faithfully performed. In this letter to
the Louisiana Sugar Planters' associa-
tion he lets the cat out of the bag. It'
was written from Long Branch last Au-
gust, just when the commission of
which he was a member was be-
ginning its work of examining
Into the operation of the existing .tariff.
Mr. Kenner says to his friend, the
secretary of the protected Sugar plan*
ters' association: "There are pertain
things which I cannot look after; cir-
cumstances forbid m« ostensibly to ap-
pear in the matter at all. Consequently
without so much assistance I lose half
my efficiency and chance of success,
beg you will see all of them again

The decision of a New York Judge
that dividends cannot be declared on

another, that the people may recover all
excessive charges collected from tbem,
in order that these dividends might be
declared. This law should be opera-

owners.

t-
tate to show it to any one who is equally

"Our success," then, was the object
which Mr. Kenner was working for es a
member of the national tariff commis-
sion—that is, the success of the sugar
planters in keeping up a high protective
tariff' on sugar. ''
While thiB commission was taking eyl>
dence lust fall It sharply resented the In-'
tlmatlon that it was prejudiced in favor of
the protected Interests and would not
fairly consider the claims of consumers.
And yet It seems that the insinuation
was well founded. Mr. Kenner waa
working for the prqteeted sugar plan-
ters; qnother member wag looking after
the welfare of the steel makers; another,
has charge of the salt Monopolies, the
copper mine owners, ami the woolen
