. T. B. College Improve-
ments.
One year ago this evening The
North Texas Baptist College con-
vention convened in this city and
consumated an agreement with
the J. C. E. I. trustees and the
citizens of Jacksboro to build a
Baptist college at this place.
A board of trustees was elected
and they proceeded at once to re-
model the J. C. E. I. building.
Many obstacles'had to be met,
but the wprk went on, and the
building was ready and furnished
for the first session to open the
first Monday in September last
with an able faculty, and success
has crowned the efforts of both
trustees and teachers.
At a meeting of the board of
trustees last Monday it. was agreed
upon to build a dormitory. The
outlines of the building were
agreed upon and the building
committee were instracted to
have plans and specifications
drawn as soon as possible to sub-
mit to the board for final approval.
The building is to be 42x60 feet
with T 16x32 feet. Veranda and
and .balcony are to run around the
entire building. The basement
story is to be of stone, 9 feet, 6
feet above ground, which will be
used for dining room, kitchen and
storage rooms. The building is to
be two stories on the basement
with a mansard roof, making four
flours. There will be thirty rooms
exclusive of tbe basement and
halls.
*
It is expected the plans and
specifications will oe ready for the
board next Saturday evening and
if approved, contracts will be Jet
at once, and tbe work will be
pushed so that tbe building will
be ready for boarders by the first
of September next.

Judge Smith at Home.
Judge Smith’s home papers
speak very highly of him as a gen-
tleman and of his qualifications
for the office he seeks. The
Colorado Clipper says:
To the people of Mitchell and
adjoining counties, Judge Smith
needs no introdnctlpn, as pine
years of his life have been passed
in Colorado, and by his works and
walk in life our people know him,
Judge Smith was born in Geor-
gia, but has been so long in this
state that he has become, thor-
oughly acclimated. He served
through the late war, as a member
of Hood’s brigade and was as gal-
lant a soldier as ever followed the
Stars and BarB on many a hard
fought field. Since the war his
time and abilities have been en-
gaged in the practice of law, and as
a lawyer, Judge Smith ranks with
the best. He has been honored
with several positions of trust
and is now serving as Secretary
of State.
against any man who stands for
the Wall street idea of finance,
whether he be Mr. Cleveland or
some other man to whom the
Cleveland mantle may be award-
ed.
These three states have declar-
ed overwhelmingly fora candidate
who favors the free coinage of
silver, and specifically against
Mr. Cleveland. Their example is
likely to become contagious
throughout ^ the South. Even
those who have professed to b( -
lieve it impolitic to raise the mou-
ey question, will not throw them-
selves in the way of the manifest
sentiment of the people, now that
the issue has been forced into the
campaign by the bold effort of the
gold advocates to capture both
parties and both platforms.
There is no way to shirk the
issue. It is here and it must be
met. The question for Texas is,
will it speak oat its sentiments and
stand with its sister southern
states at Chicago for the free coin-
age of silver, or will it stifle its
own opinions and drop into the
train of the plutocrats of Wall
street, merely because It is headed
by Mr. Cleveland?
Loafers.
Colorado Clipper.
There is a class of individuals
in almost every town and . com-
munity, devoid of employment,
who sit around the street corners
and doggeries and put in their
time croaking about hard times,
the deadness of the town arid the
utter hopelessness of the future.
How these individuals manage
to eke out a miserable existence
is a secret known only to them-
selves and tbe men who furnish
them tfhiskey, tobacco and occa-
sionally a few groceries. They
sit around, warts and knots on
the face of the town or communi-
ty in which they reside, and are
always sufficiently prominent to
attract the attention of visitors
Let a newcomer strike the town
aod spe^ak of making an invest
mrint and they are ever ready to
pour irfto his ears doleful tales qf
the town and prophesy disaster
to any enterprise that may be on
the tapis. Witfl dead energies,
dead minds and lost'iqcjiuatifins,
they are not only discouraging
to new comers, but they are dam
pers upon home enterprise.
The Clipper hoped when the
scalp law went into effect that the
breed of loafers would become
pxtinct or thinued oat to such an
extent that they would not be
poticgable, but our hopes were
blasted, Coyotes, prairie dogs,
wild cats apd jack rabbits have
been thinned out, but tfle loafer
still flourishes and will be on hand
trutij he is frowned out of exist-
ence. If all the men who are loafi
iDg and growliug about hard
times would go to work and do
something to make times better,
all the waste places of the state
would bloom and blossom like »
well-kept flower yard, and hard
times tfonld soon be but a tra-
dition in the m'Bds of the oldest
inhabitants. If yea are affected
that way, suppose you try the ex.-
perimeut. There are millions in it.

having joined a Texas regiment

until the close, of the war in 1865.
In 1880, he was elected chairman
of the Democratic executive com-
mittee of Texas, by the state
Democratic convention held in
Dallas. He was appointed secre-
tary of state by Governor Hogg
in 1891, and now asks the voters
of the 13th congressional district
to send him to congress.
There was a fair audience pres-
ent but many more would have
been out had there not been a
miscarriage of letters which pre-
vented the prope{ publicity being
given his appointment. However,
the Gazette is able to give its
readers a synopsis of his splen-
did Democratic speech, which was
well received and spoken of high-
ly by those who heard him. He
was introduced by Mr. J. K. Wes-
ter, chairman of the Democratic
executive committee of Jack
county, and after the usual pre-
liminary remarks said:
Tariff reform yields to no other
in its importance to the American
people. Existing tariff laws are
unnecessary, unjust and oppress-
ive. They are class legislation
of the most offensive character,
They discriminate in favor of cer-
tain sections and individuals, and
against other localities and other
people. “They enrich the people
of the east and north, and impov-
erish those of the west and south.
Under their operations, the latter
pay forced and ruinous tribute to
those qf the north and east. We
are coercpd iqto selling to tfle
manufacturers of our country the
raw material which we produce,
and buying of then* the articles
manufactured from it, upon terms
dictated by them, because existing
tariff laws effectually shield, them
from all competition in that pur-
chase and sale. This is protection
to them, but robbery to us. Such
law strikes down, with its dagger
strokes, that ancient bulwark of
our liberties,—the perfect equality
of all sections apd citizens under
tbe laws of tbe lanff. Tq borrow
the graphic phrase of another,
our tariff laws are league with
hell, and a covenant with death.”
Besides they are a monster per-
version qf the original design and
purpose of a protective tariff. One
of the earliest difficulties encoun-
tered by our patriotic forefath-
ers iu moving opr govern-
ment ouf upon its illustrious
career, was to provide the
necessary revenue to defray its
legitimate expenses and to liq-
uidate it§ indebtedness. In their
wisdom, they devised tbe plan of
levying small duties upon tbe im-
ports of opr country, and this
duty was 80 adjusted ps tq en-
courage the erection of manufacri
priug establishments, The United
States was tbep a new, sparsely
settled and undeveloped country,
isolated in position requiring that
a variety of manufacturing enter-
prises should be established anfi
maintained 4o tbe cud that we
might as a people be prepared to
defend apd support ourselves in
the event of war, apd the conse-
quent suspension of commerce
between foreign countries and our
own. The avowed, and only per-
nffpsible purpose of discrimination
in the levy of duties at that time,
was to protect “our infant indus-
tries,” until they should be able
to stand alone. This policy of
protection has been continued and
extended, until the little fingers
of those infant industries have
become stronger than the loins of
p giant, and the people of the
'.United States are, tpday, sifug-
can not secure free silver legisla-
tion at this time; that if such a
measure should pass through both
houses of congress, it would en-
counter a presidential veto. If
this be a good reason why we
should forego the further agi-
tation of this question, then
does not it apply with still
greater force to the question of
tariff reform ? A bill providing
for any material reduction of the
tariff would fail of passage through
a Republican senate. Again it is
urged that we imperil our chances
of electing a Democratic president
by pressing the free coinage issue
at this time. Is it not probable
that greater defection from our
ranks may be caused in the south
and west by a failure to press,
than in the north and east by
pressing this vital issue, at this
time ? Furthermore, should the
Democratic party with its glorious
history and inspiring traditions
ever permit expediency to domi-
nate its councils, or shape its
policies? ‘ I unhesitatingly an-
swer, no!

jjerculeao grasp, Our tariff laws
should be radically changed and
amended, sq as to reduce them to
g strictly revenue basis, The
duties levied by them should be
taken off ttie necessaries, and
placed upon the luxuries of life,
thereby lifting the burdens of the
expense of government from off
the shoulders of the weak, and
placing them upon those of the
strong.
While our
PENSION LAWS
remain unchanged, and our pen-
sion lists unrevisod, we cannot ex-
pect any material modification of
j our burdensome tariff laws. The
money which they bring into the
Jreasuri will lie needed o si-„v
of such pensions should be limit-
ed to supplying the needs result-
ing from such disabilities.
I am an ardent advocate of the

UNLIMITED COINAGE OF SILVER,
equally with gold, at all our mints.
I would have the government put
into the silver dollars thus to be
coined, precisely the same amount
of silver bullion that other silver
dollars now in circulation contain,
to wit, 4121-2 grains. , Silver
bullion, or uncoined silver, is not
money, but simply a'commodity
to be bought and sold as any other
kind of merchandise. Under ex-
isting laws, no silver is coined on
private account by our mints, and
only enough of it for the use of
the government as may be neces-
sary to provide for the redemption
of the treasury notes issued under
the act of July 14, 1890. First
and foremost, such a law is desira-
ble, because the additional money
that would thus be put into circu-
lation is needed in the transaction
of the business of the country.
The money of our country consists
of gold, silver, and the various
kinds of currency. Under all
sound systems of finance, paper
money is based upon the coin that
Is in the country, and must bear
some proportion to it. The un-
limited coinage of silver would
increase the amount of money in
circulation to the extent of the
greater value of coined silver
over silver bullion, and to the
further extent of the greater
amount of paper money that could
be issqed upon the coined than
fhe unepined ^ilye^. No better
pr more convenient money than
Silver has ever been known to the
world. Its value has been attest-
ed by its use as money in all civ-
ilized countries for thousands of
years past. Ever since the neces-
sities of mankind suggested the
need of a medium of exchange,
silver has been used as money. It
is the money of the fathers of your
American republic, and of our
Federal Constitution. That re-
vered instrqmeqt gives equal rec-
ognition to silver and gold as tbe
coins of the United States. Tfie
act of cobgress, dated April
1.790,—more than a century ago—
provided for the free apd unlimited
coinage of both these metals, and
made each a full legal tender. The
silver dollar for the unlimited
coinage of which we aye contend-
ing, ia to contain precisely the
amount of silver that all the dol
lars coined under the act of 1837
and which has ever since then
been in circulation, contained.
And the first dollar cqined nnder
that act has never been inferior in
*
value, to any gold dollar in the
Jand. Indeed, at the time of the
passage of the act demonetizing
of silver, 1873, silver was worth a
premium of three per cent, over
gold. I favor such a law for the
further reason that the Democrat-
ic platform of Texas, as well as
the platform of the national Dem-
ocratic party of 1884, reaffirmed
apd adopted by the national Dem-
ocratic convention of 1888,
demanded if. Jffofit of the obliga-
tions of the government are paya-
ble in coin, and when the supply
of one of these coins is restricted
yqn correspondingly ephance the
value of the other, Hence all
legislation hostile to silver increas-
es the riches of the owners of
securities payable in coin,, and is
therefore in the interest of the
creditor, and against the debtor
classes. Hostile legislation has
depressed the price of silver
bullion from what it was at the
fime silyer was demonetized in
1873, and friendly legislation will
doubtless restore it to the value
then attached to it. Unfriendly
legislation would no doubt have a
similar effect upon gold. Gold
has no greater intrinsic’value than
silver, and gold bullion, like silver
bullion, is worth less before than
after jts coinage, and hence, there
is as much reason for discontinu-
ing, or limiting, the coinage of
gold, as silver. The prediction
that to restore silver to coinage
would drive all the gold out of
the country, is disproved by the
facts of history. A similar pre-
diction was made iu 1878 when
silver was restored to coinage.
The estimated amount of gold
then in the country was $230,000,- satisfaction, or money refunded.

The Country Booming. Fine
Crop Prospects and Good
Rains. Homes for
Many More.
Correspondence of the Gazette.
Liberty, Okla., May 8, ’92.
Oklahoma is enjoying a boom at
the present time without parallel
in the history of the country. The
recent opening to settlement the
C. and A. country has fully if not
more than doubled her population
in a day. I would say for the in
formation of my friends who read
the GAzette that there is loom
yet for many more who have not
homes and are wanting them for
themselves and little ones, to al
such we extend a kindly greeting.
Our prospects at present for a
good crop are very flattering, as
our small grain is almost a certain-
ty since the refreshing rain that,
commenced' twenty-four hours
since and still comes down with
no prospect whatever of holding
up. We feel quite safe in saying
should our small grain crop pan
out in proportion to the agyeage
of last jear the present crop will
almost quadruple that of last year.
Health is fully as good if not a
little better thqn in any place
ever lived, yet we don’t profess
to be in the healthiest country iu
the world, for it is said of Kansas
that she is so extremely healthy
that each and every township,
in the early settlement, had to
kill a man to start a. graveyard.
Yes, we doff onr hat to Kansas in
this respect.
It would surprise any one from
Texas should he pay El Reno, our
couqty site, a visit, to see^ the
amdhnt of business done in'that
thriving and prosperous little ‘city
which is now less than three years
old and doubtless sells more goods
and groceries, and more money
’changes hands there each day in
the week than any other town so
young in the whole civilized
world. It would amply pay any
business man in Texas who is con-
templating changing his place of
busines to come to EL Reno and
see for himself the many advan-
tages offered by her business men
to all who will cast their lot with
them, giving q lot or lots in pro-
portion to the business, to al
men who wish to go into business
in the oity. These are advantages
not often found in so thriving and
enterprising a city as El Reno.
