Mh. Editor—Your truthful ar-
ticle in the last issue of the Gazet-
teer under the above caption in
reference to neglecting our home in-
dustries while we are ever ready to
entertain any quixotic scheme pro-
vided it comes from a sufficient dis-
tance, is a very fair statement of the
case.
I am acquainted with all the facts
mentioned in reference to the Fur-
nishing Manufactory of Mr. I.
Franklin. He has successfully run
this business tor over three years,
notwithstanding his very limited
means to start such an enterprise,
and has built up a trade for his
goods in the principal towns of
Texas, while it is doubtful if even
one half of our business men have
ever heard of his business.
I have been told that the firm of
Blankenship & Blake started with
almost as smill a beginning in Dal-
las. Now these gentlemen hag-ft
is said over $250,000 invested in
manufacturing enterprises in Dallas.
Their manufactory of gents’ furnish-
ings has grown to be the largest in
the west. But Dallas knows how
to encourage local enterprises, and
this fact more, than any other ac-
counts for the phenomenal growth
of Dallas.
No, you are right, Mr. Franklin
never asked a bonus from the city
for his enterprise, though it better
deserves it than many schemes with
more cheek and less merit, that have
asked out*. Mr. Franklin has prac-
tically mastered his business and
from his long experience he knows
of his trade. He
manufactures only the best and
most reliable class oi goods and as
stated they find a ready market in
Dallas, Fort Worth and Houston,
Paris and all over the state. The
amount he produces could be in-
creased fifty or one hundred fo'd
and be sold readily, thereby giving
emp oyuient to hundreds of our citi-
zens who are unemployed and who
would at once be transformed into
wage earners. What should be the
proper manner for our people to

The Mormon church of Utah is
not the only religious organization
in this country which places the laws
of God above the laws of the State.
It is owing to this assumption that
Congress has disfranchised the fol-
lowers of Brigham Young. The
following extract would seem to
show that at least one other Chris-
tian church occupies the same pre-
carious fjround. Article 15 ot the
‘•Testimonyof the l nited l’resbv-
teriait Church of America, leads a>
follows:
“That the law of God is supreme
in it* authority and obligations, and
where commands of church and
state conflict we are to obey God
rather than man.”
That article borders close on the
confines of treason.
It has been extensively circulated
for county electioneeiing purposes
that Lee McAfee, sheriff, permitted
prisoners to hire substitudes tor
themselves. The affidavit publish-
ed below shows the statement to be
untrue. After prisoners are con-
victed and turned over to the proper
authorities he has no more to do
with them. He has no more to do
wiMi them than he has to do: with
penitentiary convicts who have’ been
turned over to the penitentiary au-
thorities.
At the May special term of the
commissioners’ court an order was
entered upon the minutes of the
county commissioners’ court requir-
ing Sergt. Long to make a report
under oath why certain reports, al-
leging that county convicts were al-
lowed to hire substitutes, had be-
come rife.
He filed the following paper un-
der oath:
‘•Gentlemen, in compliance with
your order I respectfully submit the
the following:
‘‘On March 15th, 1889, I look
charge of the county convicts, under
a contract made with his honor, J.
T. Cunningham. 1 have received
convicts at the county jail of M. O.
Callahan, and have received others
at the court house immediately after
conviction before being carried to
jail. On the 26th of July 1SS9,
Sheriff R L. McAfee delivered
Harry Thompson and Max Musen-
heimer to me at Collinsville. All
of them stated to me that they paid
McAfee’s railroad fare and asked
him to carry them direct to me,
without carrying them to jail I
was just in the act of moving from
Collinsville to Preston Bend. The
weather was very bad and the pris-
oners were men who had never done
any hard labor and would have done
but little work for me during the
ten days of their sentence. They
asked me to allow them to employ
a good hand to work for them,
which I consented to do on condi-
tions that they answer roll call each
day themselves, which they did ex-
cept one day. They said they were
summoned as witnesses and I ex-
cused them that day. A few days
before I received George Kidd, and,
after starting to camp, he begged
me to carry him to the judge. 1 did |
so and he took advantage of the law !
allowing him to pay one dollar per 1
day and remain in jail, which he did. i
I thought if one was allowed to avoid ;
work by lying in jail another could I
be allowed to hire a substitute if he j
appeared in person himself. In this
transaction no blame should attach j
to any one save myselt. Since 1 •
have had charge of the convicts no i
one has attempted to assume any !
authority over me except Judge
Cunningham and he knew nothing j
of this transaction unt.l it was con- ;
sum mated When he saw me he
was displeased and gave me positive !
orders never in future to allow tire ;
employment of substitutes, which
order 1 have obeyed.

FOB THE CONFEDERATE HOME1
Mrs. J. F. Mitchell, secretary of
an association having for its object
the raising ot funds to assist the
Confederate Home of this state, in
connection with the treasurer, Mrs.
Rosine Ryan, has issued a circular
to the ladies of Texas, from which
the Gazetteer makes the follow-
ing liberal extracts:
'f'L % • .• r ts zs , 1 1 pointment.
1 he Association ot h-x-Contecler- | 1
ate Veterans in tfiis city, known as
the ‘‘John B. Hood Camp,” have
tor years labored zealously to estab-
lish a Home for indigent anil dis-
abled Ex-Confederate Soldiers.
Without aid from the state—be-
cause the constitution does not pro-
vide for such appropriations—in the
the face of many difficulties, and in
spite of great discouragement, aris-
ing from seeming apathy on the part
of the puhlic, they have secured a
meager fund, trom which about three
thousand dollars per annum is real-
ized. This sum will, by close
economy, provide necessities, but
not suitable comforts, for twenty-
five men, whereas there are forty in
the ‘‘Home.”
So large a number could not have
been maintained, save by the liber-
ality of the citizens of Austin, who
have made special contributions ot
provisions, bedding, medicines and
medical attention.
There are now eighteen appli-
cants for admission, who can not be
received for want of accommoda-
tions, while there are not less than
ont hundred old soldiers, who, by
reason ot service to their country,
indigence, disease and old age, are
suff ring for the shelter of the
“Home.” They should be, they
must be provided for by the people J
in whose defence they fought and j
suffered.
Year bv year, as the heroes of I
the “Lost Cause” grow old, a larg- j
er, and vet a larger number of them I
must look to the gratitude, and |
broad humanity of their country- i
men, tor that sustenance, which, I
but for these four years, given to |
their country, they might of them- |
selves have commanded.

should be dune. There is another
reason why the Gazetteer is anx-
ious to have the competitive exami-
nation. It is curious to know
whether a woman really is as well
qualified as the men who are so anx-
ious to hold on to and monopolize
this superintcndcncy business. We
can recollect when the men insisted
upon doing all the teaching, hut su-

The demand for suburban property
in Denison just now is something extra-
ordinary, and small sales to mechanics
and wage-earners are being recorded in
numbers daily. This indicates that a
class of population that has been con-
tent up to this time to pay large rents tor
small houses have become wise and have
resolved to become posessors in their
own right, thereby becoming permanent
tax no one unreasonably, and yet
aggregate a large sum, affording
such a fund that no man who wore
the gray in the days that tried men’s
souls, need suffer for a home.
Acting on this suggestion, a few
ladies of Austin, authorized by the j
lolin B. Hood Camp, have decided
to thoroughly canvass the citv and j
county, asking each man on the |
street, anil each lady at her door, I
for one dollar, and then ask the
prominent ladies of each town in t
Texas to do the same work.
We have been at work for a week ; j
we find it a popular and immense
success, and will realize a handsome ;
amount, while the cheerful response 1
from all classes makes it delightful 1
for us. Now—will you join us in 1
this labor of love? Will you join
the women of Texas in this supreme j
effort to endow our Home? Let us •
| share hereafter in the glory ot hav-
: ing worked, ter secure a perfect im-
munity from want, for those who
! sacrificed prosperity, and health to
I protect our peace, integrity and
I honor.
Our plan of work is simple: First,
] fill the vacancies below your own
j name with the names of such other
| ladies as you may need to assist you,
! should you deem assistance needed.
Begin to work, taking the busi-
ness part of the town first, for the
gentlemen list, and the residences
for the ladies list, having all names
published in the local papers.
AH ladies interested in furthering
this commendable w ork have been
invited by Mrs. Sam Hanna to meet
at her residence, corner of Sears
why a woman could not qualify her-
self to superintend the puhlic
schools, hut up to date there has
been no response. Even Council-
Jones, who it is said is bitterly op-
posed to female superintendents,
lias failed to furnish the newspapers
with his views on this all-important
subject. The only argument we
have heard advanced on the streets is
J that a woman has not the physical
ability to wield the rod. We be-
| lieve this is the position taken by
; Prof. Gerard. This objection, if a
good one, is easily overcome. Elect
! a muscular jaintor, and make him
ex-officio (logger. This would re-
lieve the cultured and refined super-
intendent of a very unpleasant duty. |
and at the same time avoid the
necessity of sending unruly pupils a
j long distance to the superintendent’s
office in the high school building for
j chastisement, every school building
being supplied with a janitor. The
; Gazetteer doesn’t believe in the
injunction of Soloman. "Spare the
rod and spoil the child.” He was
evidently an ohlgogv. But it Hog-
ging is insisted upon in the public
schools of Denison, then bv all
means turn the business over to the
janitors, and reward them with a
commensurate increase of salary.
