THE HESPERIAN IS IN ITS TWEN-
TY-FIFTH YEAR.
Notice.
The IIkhvkrian ran not umler-
ts«k o to publish obituaries and
tribute* of rcspect to the
on the financial question the na-
tional platform suggests some
state legislation.
The national platform demands
that the prohibitory tax l>e taken
off the bills of state banks. This
would have no effect in Texas un-
til our constitution is so changed
that state banks can l>e estab
lished. In the present condition
of things we would l>e opposed to
an issue of money by these banks.
But a system of savings banks so
guarded by law as to make de-
posits safe, is badly needed. So
far as commercial business is con-
cerned our national banks are
equal to any that can be estab-
lished. But a system of state
banks would bring a large
amount of capital to Texas which
would help develop the state.
The platform in 1892 demanded
this, bnt the legislature lacked a
few votes of having the necessary
votes to submit the constitutional
amendment permitting the legisla-
ture to establish banks.
This question should be thought
about and discussed.
The railroad question has been
dead, allowed to rest and it would per-
J W"?M no ro"n!! haps be well to lei it rest awhile
for anything else If it accepted, ...
such matter. It is therefore forced w^ere 13 until we see whether or
to charge for such matter. Those not what has Iteen done will work
who wish to publish anything of out any good for the people. We
the kind l':,J 'or hope we will not this year have a
campaign of bitterness and excite-
the rate of 5 cents a line. This
rule Is necessary and will be ad-
hered to.
STATE ISSUES.
It might I*' well to l>egin to dis-
cuss some state issues. A cam-
paign is upon us now and as yet
there h»mmiis to l*> nothing well de-
fined upon which the party can
sj»eak.
The populists will soon be in
the field and it is supposed they
will pro) •one something definite.
Yet it is prob.ih w that they will
throw out a drag net this year and
try to make combinations. They
change their platform as often
as any of the old parties and
will no doubt take advantage of
the popular discontent and shape
their course so as to catch as
many votes as possible.
We know of no better plan for
the demoenwy than to sth k to the
national platform, and then build
a state platform so as not to con-
flict with it. Ta/iff is left entirely
with thcjgener.il government. But
ment like the last one was.
We need some cool, sensible re-
flection more than anything else.
A SUICIDAL EPIDEMIC.
The populist party has great
hopes. It is a party that subsists
mostly on hope. It never is, but
always to be, triumphant in nation-
al elections. Before elections, in
its own estimation, it is invincible;
after elections it is invisible,
though, alas! not inaudible. Its
clatter of boasting goes on forever.
The inevitable Taubeneck feels
called upon again to approach the
footlights and announce the com-
ing triumphs of the populist party.
It is curious to note, in connection
with this forecast of coming vic-
tory, the strenuous efforts of the
populists to commit political sui-
cide. Wherever they have gotten
a foothold, they have stirred up
strife, and have developed the
most tyrannical and reckless dis-
position. Lewelling, in Kansas,
tried to disperse the legislature
with troops, and was checked only
by the refusal of his officers to
obey his orders. Waite, in Colo-
rado, ordered out the militia to re-
sist the order of a court, and asked
the aid of the United States army
to storm the city hall. He was
only prevented from inaugurating
civil war by the refusal of a feder-
al officerto back him up.—Courier-
Journal.
The Katy was one hour late yes-
terday.
G. L. Gohn and Mrs. A. J.
Crane were married last night by
Justice Hill.
Charley Smith was reported much
better last night and his chances
jood for recovery.
There was no change in Mayor
Rollins' condition when last heard
from. He still lingers and fights
hard for life.
Mr. and Mrs. I. Siesfeld will
give a reception tomorrow night in
honor of Misses Maude and Alice
Johnson of Springfield, Mo.
Prof. Ragsdale was in to see us
Wednesday with a bird that had a
bill as long as the "populist plat-
form. It was a curlew, and he
was stuffing it.
Miss Minnie Mangum is at her
home in Sherman at the bedside of
her sick mother. Miss Fannie
Bush is teaching in her place dur
ing her absencc.
R. S. Rose has resigned his po-
sition as cashier of the First
national bank of Nocona. His
reasons were purely business con-
siderations. He informs us that
his relations were pleasant and
that the bank is doing a good
business.
Hon. Sam Hargis returned from
Paris yesterday evening. He says
William Wheat, the man who
stole his horses, is almost dead
with consumption and the officers
released him. He informs us that
Foster was tried yesterday for the
murder of Fulton near Healdton
and acquitted.
The Katy depot at Gainesville
is a model of neatness and order.
Jim Phipps, the baggage man who
has charge of it, takes great pride
in keeping it decent. He sees to
it that passengers are not annoyed
by drunken roughs or pickpockets.
Tough characters have to keep
quiet around there.

Th* Bant* re Bout* to California.
If you contemplate taking ad-
vantage of the very low rates from
Texas points to California that are
now being qnoted by the Santa Fe

California rates will be restored to

of first-class tickets from all Tex-
as points on its main line and

FASHION HINT.
FASHIONS FOR CHILDREN.
White Pique Baby Shoes Are One Very
Pretty Spring Novelty.
One piece gowns are still the favorite
style for little girls and children. For very-
little people the fullness is usually allowed
to fall from the shoulders, although some-
times the old fashioned baby waist is seen,
gathered into a belt, with the full skirt
aewed on. In gowns for older girls the
bodice, however fancifully it may be cut
and trimmed, is yet attached to the skirt
in the same manner and buttons at the
back. Full shirred or plaited bodices are
preferred, with skirts gathered all the way
round. For little boys not yet out of kilts
pretty sailor suits are shown made of white
or figured duck and trimmed with colored
cambric or embroidery. The skirts are
scant, while the blouses have wide turn-

WE DIFFER.
A populist in the Signal does
us the honor to claim that we are
with them in theory on financial
questions.
Not so. We differ from the
populists on the very foundations
of finance. We do not believe in
any money that is not based on
and finally redeemable as gold or
silver coin. But we believe in dis-
cussing these questions as we
would any other political theme.
We all want to do the best we can
for ourselves and for the country.
We differ honestly.
The Signal seeing the dilemma
into which it had let somebody
run it into gets huffy and refuses
to play any longer. Now, if the
Signal will reassert that the dol-
lars provided to be coined in the
Bland bill would not have been
legal tender money, we will leave
leave it to Senator Allen or Jerre
Simpson and agree to abide by the
decision.
McMabtee, who is imprisoned
at Oklahoma City on a charge of
contempt of court, has carried his
case to the supreme court. It will
be heard next week.
Cleveland and Hill are now
running a neck and neck race for
republican endorsement. Hill has
the best of it at the close of the
second heat.

prietor of the Jefferson Jimple-

Tried and true is the verdict of
people who take Hood's Sarsapa-
rilla. The good effects of this
medicine are soon felt in nerve
strength restored, appetite created
and health given.
Hood's Pills do not weaken, but
aid digestion and tone the stom-
ach. Try them.
City Directory.
J. Iff. DuBois has gotten out a
city directory which is a great
convenience to the people and does
credit to the compiler. The Hes-
perian has to thank him for a
copy. It is up to date and is a
valuable directory.

over collars, with a bix tit- or a frill down
the front. In thicker goods a neat suit
was seen with a kilt of green and blue
plaid brightened with a thread of yellow.
Figured sh^er white nainsook is used for
the most charming baby dresses of the year,
aDd even long infant slips ave shown in this
material. They are trimmed sparingly with
fine Valenciennes lace and are very carefully
made. A novelty is shown in the shape of
white pique baby shoes, w ith a strap to fas-
ten across the ankle and a tiny rosette of
lace or embroidery secured to the front of
the shoe by o pearl button. These Cinder-
ella slippers, with the lit tleshort socks that
go with them, are fit only for hot w eather
wear and should l>e replaced on cooler days
by kid shoes and longer stockings made of
fine cashmere. Pique holds a prominent
place among children's materials this sea-
son, beiiiK made not only into shoes, sun-
bonnets and hats, but into kilts, blouses and
coats. In th" finer qualities, however, it is
rather too thick and firm in texture to be
a comfortable fabric for wear on warm days.
A sketch is given of a little girl's party
dress. It is made of thin woolen crepon.
The skirt is trimmed with four graduated
flounces of the material, while the full
blouse bodice, which is cut square around
the neck, is trimmed with two ruffles. The
puffed elbow sleeves are also finished with
two ruftles, and the junctionof thebodice
and the skirt is concealed by a belt.
