Of all the uncalled for uikiod-
ness, that outburst of the Tele-
phone last week against the edi-
tor of the Girohiolb “takes the
oake.” It» worse than its three
“anneal” rounds in one day in a
runaway buggy. It exceeds its
“turnings new leaf in Ihe nation’s
progress." In fact, it mnro than
parallells “its entering upon the
arena ef its seventh mile pout”
Now, but for making a correction
we would take no notice of It
While wa might apeak of that low
oharacter of journalism that styles
a member ef the fraternity “a sly
old coon,” “sneaking in some of
ita ways” etc., we forbear to do so.
We desire to say, and do so can-
didly, sinoerely, honestly and
consoientously that we had not
the remotest reference to the
Telephone in the paragraph ques-
tioned by it, and so bitterly com-
plained of. In fact, we might
state here, by way of parenthesis,
that the amount of time devoted
by us to thihking of the Tele-
phone and its course, would make
no very appreciable portion of
that very important element. We
would add that we have ever en
tertained but the kindest feelings
for it and ita editor. We wish it
success purely from good will, al
though we might do ao from dtber
more selfish causes, its success
perhaps defeating more formida-
ble competition. Some weeks
ago, we were justified we thought,
from the course of the Telephone
towards us, in asking it whom it
supported for congress. It an-
swered us, and we accepted its
auBwer’as true, rejoiced at tame,
and aaid no more about the mat-
ter, until last weak, we were
forced to reply to its interrogate
riesof the week before," We hope
we made our meaning clear then.
Now why the Telephone should
have so eagerly appropriated the
said paragraph to itself, we oan-
not understand. We know noth
ing in its history to justify such
an appropriation, nor such an ap-
plication of it The aoripture
sayeth: “The wicked flee when
no man pursueth,” we make no
application of this passage to the
Telephone, but will repeat we had
not the remotest reference to it
in the paragraph referred to. If
we should say that a certain act
was criminal, we would think very
strange of a man appropriating it
to himself aud attacking us for it
We are of that disposition by na-
ture, as not to be always suspect-
ing some one is criticising us and
making sport of us.
As to our popularity in Van
Zandt county, wa have never
given it a minutes thought. We
believe Bill Farmer did get more
votea than we, bnt we have al-
ways been gratified with the ohar-
acter of the men who supported
us, especially when we remember
the opposition to Farmer was di-
vided between two other of the
most popular men in the county
and ourself. We have always
felt that the good oitizena of Van
Zandt had more cause for regret
than Ool. Kilgore at his defeat by
Farmer in the oeunty, and we be-
lieve they do regret it.
Non to save further trouble,
we will statelhat, in future, when
we have any reference to the Tel-
proved himself to be one of the
strongest debaters developed in
the hhuae, and he maintained his
position to the satisfaction of Ins
friends, aud he has saved a big
sum of money which there ia no
reason far taking out *f the treas
ury. Extravagant measures
usually are put through at these
uight sessions, but if nobody elaii
will put a slop to it,tho Texas rep-
resentative has made up his mind
thst bills of this character cannot
be passed without a quorum.

The Henderson Times has hard-
ly/gotten straight yet since we
called that mass meeting at Hen-
derson a union labor meeting. It
even went so far as to accuse us
slandering the people of Rusk
county in our aot of calling that
meeting a union labor conven
tion.
Last woek a writer in the Times
propounds seme questions to two
of the leading actors in that muss
meeting that elected delegates to
the Waco convention and which
Times said was composed entirely
of democrats, in which* ocour Ihe
following: ’
QUESTIONS PROPOUNDED TO 0'~V.
ROGERS AND W, P. DAVIS. . ,
Gentlemen:—Were you not sev
eral weeks ago, in favor of organ-
izing a union labor party in this
county? Was not that the object
for which the meeting at Ebene-
aer was called? Were you in fa-
vor of that meeting making nom-
inations for the different county
offices ?
Have you not said things about
the democratic party that would
lead men to doubt your democ-
racy ?
Does not this fully vindicate us
in so styling said convention?
We knew there were some spirits
in that meeting that was not dem-
ocratic. We know democratic
doctrine too well to be deceived
by such, And this was the con
vention of Col. Jones’ people that
called him out for cougrost. Al
though the regular democratic
convention met in Henderson the
same day not one resolution in
his favor, calling him out was
made, nor did he address the dem-
ocratic convention that day. It is
a wonder Milner let these ques-
tions in thus reflecting upon the
democracy ot a leading member
ot that demooratio (?) mass meet-
ing that sent delegates to the
Waco,convention. Rogers must
be a candidate for the legislature.
How is it, Milner ?

The Splnele-Kllaore episode.
Washington, July 22.—There is
a mild indication that the contro-
versy between Col. Kilgore and
Gen. Npinola ol New York, in the
house on last Friday, is not over.
The friends of Gen. 8pinola are
claiming that the New York gen
eral can not well let the matter
drop where it is. They argue
that as Gol. Kilgore has not as
Gen. Spinola did, withdrawn the
matter ot the offensive language
which he uttered in reply to Spin-
ola, the matter cannot in justice
to the New Yorker's dignity and
reputation be ignored, but he
must, in case Gol. Kilgore does
not withdraw his remarks, have a
peraonal settleinent of the con-

Gen. Spinola says he thought
when he withdrew his offensive
remarks about the Texan the lat-
ter would do the same toward him.
Ool. Kilgord has not withdrawn
his remarks, and, as he stated to
night to some of Gen. Spinola’s
friends, be meant what he said
when ha tol4 Gen. Spinola’s
friends, he did not intend doing
so, either. He meant what lie
sgid when he told Gen. Spinola
that his age protected him, but if
he had any henchmen he would
settle it with t|iem.
Ool, Kilgore said to-night to
/_n the News correspondent that
Gen. Spinola was the first to in-
dulge in personalities, and he
did not propose to take back or
it may “get the wrong sow by the
oar” again.
Ool. KII«ore Devoloplon I rite a
•trona Debater.
Washington, July 20.—Repre-
aentative Kilgore, of Texas, pro-
voked a lively discussion in the
house at the session held last
night and also to-day. Night ses-
sions, as a rule, are not largely at
tended, and too oiten attempts
are made to rush through bills
when there is no quorum present.
Last night Gen. Spinola was try
ing to put through a bill to ap
jpriato 9100,000 to erect a i
lent,.in one^ of the Broo
a mon-
umentoia
parka. Mr. Kilgore did not ap
prove of the appropriation and he
made the point of no quorum.
That of coarse blocked the pro
ceedingi. To-day the bill appro-
priating $260,000 to aid the state
home for disabled volunteers
came up and Mr. Kilgore ODposed
that on the ground that the gen-
eral government was attempting
to assume obligations that be-
long to the state. He insisted
that thara was much of thia spirit
in congress. He was pounced up-
on by Gen. Spinola of Mew York
and Mr. Laird of Mebraska. The
former indulged in a tirade of
a'onae and misrepresentation, and
ths Texas statesmen frankly said
that if the New Yorker were a
younger man or had a henchman
who wonld do hia talking for him
he would denounce him as a liar.
Gen. Spinola finally apologised
and the matter waa amoetbed
over. Mr. Kilgore insists that h*
has a right to oppes* bills without
being denounced and held -ap in
a false light and ha propose* to
make the point of no ‘ qnornm
whenever an attempt is made to
railroad snob bills through a
•limlv attended saaaion. Mr. Ell-
in Ms argumjri to-day
homes tor people who have them
—for the rich and poor
alike. I did not say a single
word calculated to reflect on an y
soldier, and he knows it full well.
No such observation 'would have
been pertinent to the question. I
said it was the theory of the repuh
lican party to enlarge the powers and
to limit to a corresponding extent
t he powers and duties of the St ates
and this measure was in the line of
that policy.
Now, with reference to the
charge made by the gentleman
from New York which called forth
the offensive language used by him
I have to say that his age arid re-
spect I have for old men prevent
me from denouncing him and his
statements as they deserve. But
if he has a henchman in this House
ready to do his bidding who would
make such a charge and use such
language I will denounce him here
or elsewhere as a liar and wholly
unworthy of respect. He says he
had a taste of me at
the session of the House last night,
when I stood alone and deleated
his bill to appropriate $100,000 to
build a monument in Brooklyn.
We -did meet last night. He
demanded of Congress a hundred
thouMmd dollars of the peopled
money to beautify a park in
Brooklyn. I did not think the
people ought to be robbed for any
such purpose and resisted his
scheme. I did not believe in ir
and opposed it, and thus gave mot-
tal offense. He demanded it in
the name of 6,000,000 people in
New York. I opposed in in the
name of the other 54,000,000 peo
pie of the country at large.
A Member. You do not speak
for Pennsylvania and Micliigan.
Mr. KILGORE. I have the
right and it is my solemn duty to
speak for the people who earn
their daily bread by their daily la-
bor—I represent just such people-
andparticularly when I think
their money is being squandered
by schemes and jobs. I hope to
always be found resisting, and the
fact that I stood alone in roy oppo-
sition does not make the slightest
difference with me. Now, sir, be-
cause I saw proper to speak out for
my people who have no interest in
building monuments in New York,
rind who i know do not want their
money sqandered in any way, be-
cause I saw fit to dissent from the
views of the majority of the House
I am assailed in the most bitter
terms, and under circumstances
which preelude any resenting of tlje
offense. The discussion of the ques-
tion of parties, it does not effect
any soldier or his standing, and so
far as I am concerned I did not
say a single word calculated to re-
fliHV on any soldier.
For myself I can say 1 was as
much opposed to secession and the
bringing on of the war as any man
in this Ghamlier, but my first duty
was with my people, and I went

The above is a fair specimen of
the low contemptible paragraphs
that are found in the columns of
that sheet. To men who know
any thing of Kilgore’s record in
congress it is too contemptible to
be noticed. Here is a good place
tosay that Kilgore has not sent out

did not deliver in congress. Wa

Jones did not.

would have been an easy matter

FEATING MORE FRAUDS.
The bill to erect a monument to
the memory of soldiers of the rev-
olutionary war who perished at
Brooklyn, N. Y., which proposes
to appropriate $100,000, will meet
with vigorous opposition trom Mr.
Kilgore, who has been fighting the
bill for some time. He haa offered
an amendment to tho bill, making
an appropriation for the ereolion
of a monument to Adam, the first
man. The whole system is to
work a government job tot the
benefit of the Brooklyn delega-
tion in congress where they then
sentence, ftcCOtoTng to the Wl do something tor the city and
rules for the use of said point, it as well please some of their
friends who are contractors. Mr.
Kilgore is opposing all suoh steals
and he has offered tho “Adam”
amendment more in the nature of
the grotesque, so long as the
Brooklyn representatives propose
to honor antiquity. Now that the
tariff bill is out of the way, the
s chemea and frauds are coming to
the front for consideration.
