THE AMERICAN FINANCIAL OUTLOOK.
The latest statistics of the financial condi-
tion of the national government indicate a
■wonderful measure of progress and improve-
ment. The national debt has been reduced,
during the eight months of the year ending
August 31, $87,229,430.56. Upon the sup-
position that there will be no decrease in the
revenue for the balance of the year, this
shows a reduction of $130,844,145.84 for
1880. At this rate, without making allow-
ance for increased wealth and conse-
quent revenue from a steadily in-
creasing population, the national debt
could be paid of! in less than
twelve years if the rtuigo of maturity on a
small proportion of the whole did not stretch
away into the dawn of the next century.
The policy of refunding for thirty years,
even at as low an interest as three per cent,
the outstanding coin bonds redeemable in
1881 may therefore be liable to serious ques-
tion. The total indebtedness maturing in
1881 amounts to $782,701, 700, thirty years
interest on which at three per cent, per annum
is $704,485,530, or nine-tenths of the entire
principal. At the present showing of the
revenue, allowing the present rate of interest
to continue, these bonds could be redeemed
in a little over five years, with a gain in in-
terest over the proposed refunding process
of nearly $500,000,000. A national debt is
an incumbrance upon the entire taxable in-
dustry of the country, and the best policy is
to pay it off as fast as possible without, of
course, imposing intolerable, though tem-
porary, burdens. The financial strength of
the country at large shows not
less growth than the capacity
of the government to pay its
indebtedness. Specie continues to come in
largely, and British financial writers discuss
with anxiety the probable specie movement
in the future to the United States, while the
banks of France and Germany are unsuc-
cessfully resorting to stringent expedients to
prevent the outflow of gold. In those coun-
tries government measures have failed to
prevent the inflow of food from the United
States, and the outflow of gold is not
likely to be prevented by similar measures.
As to the probable exports to Europe
this year, its requirements in flour alone are
almost sufficient to maintain the present re-
lations between specie exports and food im-
ports. Even upon the wildest predictions of
the increased British wheat crop, 100,000,000
bushels of wheat will have to be imported
by that country, and in France 80,000,000
bushels is requred, or almost precisely the
quantity imported last year. Adding to this
the immense cotton and tobacco crops seek-
ing a foreign market, any reasonable esti-
mate of the extent of the exchange of Eu-
ropean gold for American agricultural pro-
ducts might read like exaggeration. Of
course Europe does not lose by the opera-
tion. Indeed, it gains in acquiring
from this country what it needs more than
gold. Likewise the United States gains
by acquiring what it needs more
than the exported products. In
short, as in every fair exclinnge,
both parties must be gainers by the opera
tion. Another healthy sign of the financial
outlook in the United States is the satisfac
tiou and security given by the silver coinage
of the country, an evidence of which is
found iii tlie fact that an increasing circula-
tion of silver coin or silver certificates during
the last month has sensibly retarded the in-
crease of the bank circulation.
found able expression in opposition to re-
ducing the duty on sugar through their rep-
resentatives in congress. What can be more
indecent than the spectacle of some of tlie
northern democratic papers, while loudly
indorsing the Cincinnati platform, accusing
Garfield of being a free trader, an offense
deadlier in their eyes than anything charged
against liim in connection with the credit
mobilier scandal and the De Golyer job? A
particular instance of this kind of inconsist-
ency is afforded in the following resolutions,
passed recently by tlie New Jersey state
democratic convention:
Rf>soIv«l, tlmt the platform adopted by the
national democratic convention at Cincinnati
meets our hearty approval.
Resolved, that the democratic party in this
state is in favor of such a tariff as will best
protect our home industries.
Now, the platform adopted by the na-
tional democratic convention at Cincinnati,
of which the New Jersey democracy avow
their '' hearty approval," contains the follow-
ing plank:
Third. Home rule, honest monev, consisting
of ^old, silver, and pajjer convertible into coin
on demand, a strict maintenance of the public
faith, state and national, and a tariff for reve-
nue only.
What, then, becomes of that consistent
devotion to pledges and to time-honored
principles which is so eloquently protested
by patriots with eagle eyes fixed upon the
beacon lights of office? Certainly the halo
of such devotion does not adorn the position
of protection democrats in relation to the
Cincinnati platform. And this only goes to
illustrate the able assiduity of leaders and
managers of both parties in muddling or
smothering practical issues and resolving the
national contest into an overmastering and
absorbing personal issue between the ins and
the outs.
VICTORIA AND HIS INDIANS.
Victoria was reported not long since as
negotiating with the Mexican authorities to
be allowed to remain permanently on Mexi-
can soil, the impression being that in con-
sideration of the immunity granted him he
would give up his bad habits so far as tliey
injuriously affected the lives and property of
Mexican citizens. Victoria lias some claims
on the gratitude and patriotic sentiment of
a portion of the Mexican people. He has
murdered a large number of American citi
zens and stolen a great many horses from
this side of the boundary, all of which
should entitle liis claim for protection to
favorable consideration. But it appears that
Victoria and his band have been taking
some little liberties with the people on
the Mexican side, even testing their
forbearance by stealing their stock and
killing and scalping the Mexicans
themselves. Victoria is our Indian, so to
speak; or, to be more correct, he was our
Indian when he was on the reservation, feed-
ing on good United States rations and listen-
ing to the peaceful admonitions of Quaker
Indian agents. Although he is a United
States Indian, lie makes himself perfectly at
home in Mexico, just as much as if he were
in Texas reducing the census. The Mexi-
cans do not seem to have jumped at the
tempting offer of Victoria to become a Mexi-
can citizen. At least one would infer not
from the fact that a reward of $2000 has
been offered for his head, for the head of our
Indian, as soon as we have caught him. A
few weeks ago Gen. Grierson gave the
country some reason to hope that
Victoria was in a very helpless condi-
tion; that a large number of his men had
been killed and wounded; that his horses
were tired down, and that he could not hold
out much longer. There seemed reason to
believe that he and his band would come in
and surrender. Had he done so, he and his
exhausted warriors would have probably
been sent to the reservation again, where
they could fatten up for the spring campaign,
thereby causing the heart of the Indian
agent to leap for joy, as the government
might object to the agent drawing rations
and clothing for these Indians when they were
over in Mexico on an excursion. It turns
out, however, that Victoria is not satiated
with fun, and also that he is in a very favor-
able condition to enjoy himself, for
he has turned up again in
Texas, near El Paso, and is
robbing and murdering just tlie same as if
he had never been severely punished by our
troops. The people on the frontier can
stand a good deal. They expect to be killed
and scalped occasionally, but there is a limit
to their forbearance. It is about time to
suggest that the government either wipe out
Victoria and his band or advertise for bids
on a contract to do so. For more than a
year Victoria has had it pretty much all his
own way. Hundreds of American citizens
have been killed, a vast amount of property
destroyed, and as far as we can see, there is
no prospect of Victoria and his band being
abated. It is time that the two sister re-
publics should organize an expedition to
deal effectually and finally with these eva-
sive and boundary-straddling Indians.
we think he is sound in personal integrity we can-
didly believe that the man is wholly unfit as an ex-
ecutive officer. That Roberts is as fickle as the
winds in his notions of state policy; that he^can be
swerve'! and whirled around as easily as a weather-
cock by the breeze; that his past two years official
conduct is as full of inconsistencies and official
blunders as possible that he could have committed,
and that it is evident that the forces arrayed against
him are the enlightened classes who
are _ best enabled by position and
association to judge; that the main
strength of his support with a few exceptions are
not reading, thinking people, and those who are do
not take the trouble to preserve intact the links of
blunders and inconsistencies that spot his guberna-
torial record; and, lastly, and. perhaps, most unfor-
tunately, the leading "opposition against Roberts
was .1. I). Payers, who baa done nothing to entitle
him to the confidence of the aver.ige voter. While,
therefore, it is quite evident that Roberts will be re-
elected. anil while we would get a very ready recog-

the integrity and purity of th<» Texas press only
one or two) have done, yet we repeat that we would

as soon confess ourself a debased stultifier as to do

spect.
Something looking like a move in the direction
of land monopoly was develop **1 at the last meet-
ing of the legislature, though in what interest
was only matter of inference. It was supposed,
however, to be in behalf of large stock-raisers.
The following, from the Fort Worth Livestock
Journal, strengt hens that impression and shows
that the scheme has not been abandoned:
We hope that the stockmen of northwest Texas
will try to elect only such men to represent them
in tlie next legislature as arc in favor of giving the
stockmen and t heir herds proper protection, instead
of lalniring to induce immigration into our grazing
country. In many of the western counties stock-
men are in the majority, and if they unite at the
polls they can elect at least, a few members, on
whom they can rely to place before the houses
plain and proper statements in regard to the lands
of their section, to influence legislation and pass
such laws as may give stock interests some sort of
a showing. We are not in favor of immigration to
northwest Texas except for the purpose of stock-
raising. Farming: will not pay in this great section,
and every acre of ^rass destroyed by the plow is
ten acres of grass abandoned by the stockman.
The Houston Post thinks the suicide dodge is
growing too common. Not mentioning tlie
•ases in which parties have died by drowning
to lie resurrected on some other part of this
mundane sphere with their apposites. it thinks
real murder, rather than pretended self-slaugh-
ter, may be covered up in some recent cases:
The last alleged instance is that of Miss Rosa Lee
Lawrence, at jJenison. Suspicious circumstances
point to a most foul murder instead of a suicide. It
is said the girl's face was not powder-blackened at
all, and the position of the body on the bed v. as not
such as might have been expected in a case of
suicide. Th;s case seems similar to that of the late
Selim Rinker, at Galveston. Coroners' juries in
such cases owe it to society as well as the dead, to
closely investigate such cases.
The city of Houston has long been famous
for the number and variety of her newspapers,
as well as of her local parties. Probably the
frequent changes in the latter are what try the
papers and render them short-lived. At pres-
ent there are three recognized parties there—
democrats, republicans and independents—
with a great many loose men who may be
drawn to either by the attractions offered, or
aggregate themselves into a fourth estate, ac-
cording to circumstances. Just now newspaper
organs are in demand to represent these va-
rious factions, actual or in embryo, and yet
some of the papers appear to be fainting by
the way for want of support. The Telegram
has got into legal liinbo; the Age, like the ven-
erable Arkansas traveler, can play but one
tune, and the Post apologetically says that it
has been requested to turn democrat, but de-
clares that:
There is not enough money in Houston to make
it democratic, republican or greenback. Having
determined in the first instance, after mature re-
flection as to what should be ti»e principles of the
paper, the line of independency was adopted. The
proprietor of the Post esteems the quality of the
honest consistency in the course prescribed supe-
rior to any possible advantage that might accrue
from a deviation which might expose the paper to
the charge of mercenary motives and expedient
trimming. In the establishment of the Post not
one dollar was asked for or received from an out-
side party that would constitute a bond of obliga-
tion to carry out any line of policy, save that which
was laid down for itself. It holds itself responsible
to the people at large for the manner in which it
discharges its duty toward them, when they honor
it with their support, after knowing its avowed non-
partisan principles. It therefore can not consent
to make any entangling alliances with any party
whatever, since it is committed before the people
to carry out honestly the line of independence.
But while it considers it necessary to say so much
in explanation, it is free to state its entire willing-
ness to extend the fullest courtesy to all parties,
and to open its columns-under the limitations of
its independence—to democrat, republican and
greenback alike.
The Post, however, does not want another
lion in the same jungle. It says:
The Post fully appreciates the changing mood of
the Telegram so far: in fact, it heartily approves
it. There is no substantial reason why it should
not. But when the Telegram, scarcely giving itself
time to warm itself at the independent'hearthstones,
gallops off into the republican camp, and offers its
sworn to the great mogul of radicalism, the Post
naturally feels puzzled and disappointed.
THE NACOGDOCHES CONVENTION.
Tlie Nomination of Senator*
LTo the New&l
Austin, Sept. 8, 1880.—In your issue, of the
5th inst. I see a telegram of the 4th inst., from
Palestine, in which the names of the nominees
of the late judicial and senatorial conventions
at Nacogdoches, Texas, are given. Of these I
find the nominee for senator incorrectly given.
The senatorial convention, bv late advices
from friends there, was very hotly contested.
The first contest whs between Col.
Broocks, of San Augustine county, chair-
man of the first congressional district,
and CoL Williams, of Houston county.
After several ballots Col. Williams watf with-
drawn and Col. G. F. Ingraham, of Nacog-
doches, was put in nomination. Finally,
judge W. W. Weatherred, of Sabine county,
was nominated. He is an old-line democrat,
and in the prime of life, being only 35 or 40
years of age. He stands high in his section of
the state as a lawj'er, democrat and citizen
generally, and will * be elected by a large ma-
jority. He is law partner of Hon. James T.
Polly, present representative of Sabine county,
and the senior member of the firm.
A Democrat.

SPIRIT OF THE GERMAN PRESS.
[From the Texas (Galveston) Post—translated for
the News.l
There seems to be a difference of opinion
among the republicans since the Hearne con-
ference as to what policy to pursue in local
elections. Some refuse, under any circum-
stances, to support any candidates who are not
republicans, and demand a straight-out repub-
lican ticket for all offices, and are opposed to
any fusion whatever with the liberal elements.
On the other hand, other republicans have not
given up hope of an independent ticket being
put in the field, and advocate the re-
publicans supporting such congres-
sional candidates as are opposed to
the democracy, and to make county and legis-
lative nominations without regard to party
lines. As far as we can judge from the repub-
licans, who have shown some signs of life, the
republicans of this second class are in the ma-
jority. The nominations at Hearne are to be
remarked as a declaration that the republicans
do not propose to indorse the greenback ideas.
As Gen. Hamman is willing to retire from his
candidacy for the benefit of the state, just so
Davis and the other candidates on the republi-
can state ticket are probably willing to do like-
wise as soon as the liberal democrats show they
are in earnest and there is a prospect of put-
ting an end to bourbon misrule.
SMOTHERING A PRACTICAL IStiUK
In comparing the phitforms of the two pro-
minent parties the strongest semblance of a
square issue on a practical question is found
in their respective declarations regarding a
tariff for revenue and a tarilf for protection.
The Cincinnati platform declares in favor of
a tariff for revenue only. This is a political
proposition upon which the two parties
might squarely confront each other in an
appeal to the country if one party were
united in affirming it and the other united in
denying it. But, to begin with, the demo-
cratic party is not united in affirming it, and
no such issue is actively contested before the
country. This is a bold assertion to make
when party platforms, embellished with un-
bounded protestations of sincerity
and consistency, decorate the so-
called altar of American liberty to
enliven the devotion of the masses.
Cut is it not true? Speaker Randall, in a
etate which is ardently desired to insure the-
success of the democratic party, says he is
for perpetuating the protective tariff, and
the democrats of Pennsylvania second the
demand for its perpetuation. The rice
planters of South Carolina at this moment
are organizing opposition to a bill which
they expect to be brought forward in the
next congress looking to a reduction
of the duty on rice, and the sugar
planters of Louisiana have already

What the Interior Papers Say.
Denison and the region roundabout is now
the objective point of immigrants from Michi-
gan. The News of that city prints a letter re-
ceived by Jas. D. Brown, general i>assenger
agent of the M., K. and T. road, from which
the following is an extract:
Rockford. Mich., August 22.—To Mr. James D.
Brown: 1 drop you few lines to let you know that
I got aholt or your advertisement of Texas and
Kansas, and I" want you to send me a book and a
map of Texas, and send me a good plain map of
Texas and hook the same, and put the rates what
it costs from Grand Rapida, Mich., to Denison,
Texas. More, en me aim to go to Texas,
and we aim to go there to work and
get ourselves land ana we are going there to get
ourselves land in and around Denison. Texas, and
we want to get a pass for $15 apiece, for we want-
to get land so bad we carry our own board clear
through. You men have been bragging on Texas
so long that we want to see your great Texas, if
we can get throught for $15 apiece. If not, they
can go to h—11 for all me. Well, that's all for
this time from A. Burkholder.
The religious revivals in Texas are having a
good effect on politicians, apparently at least.
Candidates no longer find rum-inills the best
places to seek votes. The Coleman Courant
says:
Tlie candidates are the most religious people in
Coleman. If they hear of a quarterly conference,
a prayer meeting or a baptizing in the opposite
corner of th* county they are gone glimmering.
The Courant prints the report of the grand
jurors of Coleman county. Among other things
they say:
We have not l>een called upon to investigate any
case wherein human life has been sacrificed. In
very few instances has it been our duty to inquire
into cases of felony. As a result of our inquiries,
we were forced to the conclusion that the law com-
monly known as the bell-punch law does not ac-
complish the end designed by Its framers. It is
practically a dead letter upon our sratute books,
but so long a« it is the law of the land, we recog-
nize it as the imperative duty of grand jurors and
all good citizens to use their utmost endeavors to
enforce it.
The Denison News says: " A regular pitch
battle took place on Woodard street Monday
before noon, between ladies of eminent respect-
ability." Did they tar each other's har?
The Colorado Citizen says:
The first of September edition of the Galveston
News is superb. The paper is a great immigration
agent, and "should be freely circulated throughout
Europe and those states having a population de-
sirous of changing localities.
The Flatonia Argus speaks to the same
effect:
The annual mammoth edition of the Galveston
Ne^s. issued September 1, is, if possible, an im
provement on its former editions. The large
amount of reading matter collated and published
in it will prove of great interest and value to the
i>eople of this state and other states and countries,
ts exposition of the advantages and resources of
this great state are. so far as we are capable of
judging, in the main, as near correct as it is possi-
ble to attain. The state and the people have cause
to feel grateful to tne News for its labors in their
behalf. Such publications must prove of incalcu-
lable-benefit to all.
The Flatonia Argus publishes the names of
mortgagors and mortgagees, with the amounts
advanced on growing crops, as notice to all
concerned.
The Monitor mentions accessions of good
families to the population of Pleasanton on ac-
count of educational advantages. Good order
and good schools are important to a town. A
number of other papers of interior towns
mention the advent of new citizens who come
to avail themselves of the benefits of good
schools. The Terrell Star says truly:
A first-class school In a good, comfortable, sub-
stantial* school building in every school district in
Texas is just about the best immigration advertise-
ment that the state can have.
The Cuero Bulletin says of the special Sep-
tember edition of the News that it is complete
in every particular as a thorough review of
the resources of Texas and its annual in-
creasing prosperity, and will, no doubt, have
a good effect and induce emigration from all
parts of the civilized world to come to Texas.
The Brenham Sentinel still refuses to take its
portion of the black bird of the genus corvus
for governor, though urging others to stand by
the democratic nomination for congress. The
Sentinel also expresses some doubt as to the
vox populi in the following:
We can not see any executive virtues in Roberts.
We see much in him to cause distrust; and while

Senator.
[To the News.]
Richmond, Sept. 9.—On yesterday, the 8th
instant, the town of Richmond was surprised
by the announcement of Mr. Freeman, of Wal-
ler county, to address her citizens as a candi-
date for senator, in opposition to Mr. Burton,
the nominee of the republican party. The two
candidates in open hostility met each other un-
der the black flag, and sparing no epithet of
abuse: and it is sad to say, like the Kilkenny
cats, left only the signs of tht»ir former ani-
mosity—both were deservingly demolished.
Our county criminal court, which is now in
session, considering the importance of the oc-
casion, adjourned this afternoon for the con-
venience of Capt. Pearson, who is to l »e the
next senator from the seventeenth district, was
enthusiastically called upon to address the peo-
ple. In that terse, elegant style common to
nis school, he enuueiated the policy and prin-
ciples of the day with such conviction as per-
ceptibly to raise in the minds of our colored
citizens a serious query as to the true state of
their situation and the relative worth of their
hostile, fire-eating, telf-devourirg JJ.v.ndidates.
We would assure her sister counties that Fort
Bend is alive to the importance of the occasion,
and only nee»is their notice and support to in
sure the success of our worthy fellow-citizen,
Capt. P. E. Pearson, us their next senator.
