theory tnat when the battle scarred vete

wives who survive them Investigation
would doubtless reveal that the large

THE NE W BR ID GE
The vote of the CommicSioners court
on1 the new bridge proposition will bs
jasthi din time by every citizen of the
county The bridge will serve the public
and will be erected none too soon to take
the place of the old one It will accom-
modate a large portion of the county and
prove of benefit to the city as a whole
for the location of the Cotton Belt depot
grounds on the North Side will necessarily
increase the citys demand for additional
facilities for crossing the river The
claim that private Interests are to
be subserved is not potent The
same objection could be raised
against any public Improvement
Wben the city pays onethird the cost of
this bridge it pays only what it does to
the improvement ofthe streets and there
is no claim that private interests are sub
served by street improvement When
the county pays onethird the cost of
this bridge it pays lor the benefit of a
large portion of the county
Judge Purmans remarks embody
all the argument and time will demon
celebrate Mardi strate his wisdom as in time all the peo
vengeance She pie will applaud his casting vote

in the city will have needed increase of
facilities to reach a railroad depot and
the private benefit is met by the private

expense is fair and equitable and the
Gazette can not see the force of opDOsi
tion to a project whose benefits would
seem to be apparent to all

A PROPOSED COMPROMISE
Congressman Phelan of Tennessee has
introduced a bill in Congress which pro-
poses to chance the constitution so as to
author ze the expenditure of not more
than 10000000 annually for educational
purposes by the national government
The money is to be turned over to each
sovereign state and the federal govern-
ment is to have no further control over it
The measure is probably a compromise
for the Blair bill The constitutionality
of the question will be settled at the out-
set and the bill so modified as to remove
the objectionable feature cf federal inter-
ference in state affairs Mr Poelans
bill may become a law it is an improve-
ment on the Blair bill surely
THE BLAIR BILL
The Blair educational bill by which it
is proposed to distribute among the
several states on the basis cf illiteracy
77000000 is the most important piece
of legislation that will come before the
present meeting of the national legisla-
ture The measure has given room for
considerable discussion rd opinion is
divided on its feasibility The author of
the bil Mr Blair is not the agent of
eastern monopolists who are trying to
begsar the Treasury in order to make the
present tariff a necessity Such argu-
ments are worse than senseless He is a
statesman of a very high1 order of ability
and a philanthropist whose ambition it is
to do good His arcument is that the na-
tion being responsible for the enfranchise-
ment of the slaves in the south the
nation should fit the newly made citizens
for the duties devolving upon them e3
such and that it is unjust to ask the in-
dividual states where a larg majority of
these freedmen Hvp to bear the burdpu of
taxation for educational purposes There
can be nothing said against the objects
sought to be accomplished by the bil
The illiteracy of the country is indisputa-
ble and the education of the oeople i3
necessary The only argument that can
be ucce3sfully advanced against it is
that it is unconstitutional unnecessary
and pregnant with evil results which
would be a greater menace to the perpet-
uation of our form of government than
anything to be apprehended from illiter
acy even
thoughthe
the education of the
masses could not be secured in any
other way Of its unconstitutionality
there can be little doubt There is
v
no warrant m the Constitution for
the expenditure of money for educa-
tional purposes No matter what might
be accomplished by the bill it is an
assumption of power never granted the
federal government and one which the
states would hesitate long before sur-
rendering It is unnecessary Whatev-
er might have been the demands for such
a measure directly after the war they do
not exist at present If the federal gov-
ernment had educted the slaves before
enfranchising them or begun the work of
education at the time of enfranchising
them some color of excuse might be
found for such an unwarranted usurpa-
tion of authority but instead of this tho
federal government contented itself with
forming Preedmens Bureaus to delude
and rob the freedmen and In enconraging
idleness and mendicancy in him by prom-
ising him foityacres and a mule The
southern states have survived and re-
covered from the shock of the late civil
war They are now prosperous and
bcoming annually more and more
wealthy they have a system of public
free schools sufficient to educate the
masses for all practical purposes neces-
sary to the discharge of the duties of
good citizenship and extraneous aid is
neither sought nor desired If neither of
the foregoing reasons were found suffi-
cient to render the passage of the bill
unwise the direful esults that would
surely follow its enactment shcnld warn
all patriotic statesmen to YOte ngsinst it
The fear o too great a centralization of
power i3 neifher vague nor mythical
The worlds history is an open book
Popular governments have arisen flour-
ished and faded from view and unwar-
ranted and unwise drafts of power by the
central heads of all the popular govern-
ments of the past stand out like mile-
stones on the road of their destruction
That passion of grasping acquisitiveness
so conspicuous in human nature asserts
itself with redoubled force in the rulers
of all nations The cry continually is for
more power more authority the
omnipotence of the government
and the insignificance and de-
gradation cf the citizen Symme-
try and stability nave been sacrificed and
ignored and the one predominating de-
sire for altitude has been gratified with
the unvarying results of top heaviness
and consequent downfall The govern-
ment of the United States is not a slen-
der shaft that can be run up to any der
sired height it should like the moun-
tain he firm fixed and permanent The
autonomy and supremacy of the states
TEE GAZETTE POET 0ETH TEXAS THURSDAY JAJSTJAET 12
are as necessary to the perpetuation of a
republican form of goverment as is the
individuality of the citizen necessary to
continued freedom The bait is a tempt-
ing one The proffer of millions is al-
most irresistible Let our lawmakers
beware that they do not sell their birth-
right for a mess of pottage
ANOTHER CRT
The Fort McKavitt sheepmen have re-
solved and viewed with alarm also
They should recollect that the poor wo-
man who has only one blanket views
with alarm whenever the mare tails
in the sky proclaim the advent of a storm
Really though these sheepmen are more
than cheeky They claim they can not
compete with foreign countries and
therefore the people of this country
should pay them double prices They do
not seem to consider that the people
have any rights Why should 60000000
people p3y a few thousand people for en-
gaging in the sheep industry If the G0
000000 can purchase cheaper in foreign
countries have they not a light to do so
Bah There is not a country on earth
that can compete with this in sheeprais
ing or anything else and this puling cry
for protection is a national disgrace
THE SUPREME JUDGESHIP
The Senate judiciary committee does
not believe in confirming the nomination
cf exbecretary Ltmar for a seat on the
Supreme bench If the msjority report
is adopted by the Senate Mr Lamar ctn
go home with confidence in being called
upon soon by the peoDle It is to be
hoped that the good sense of the Senate
will prevail and that the nomination
shall be confirmed The country well
knows that the objections to Mr Lamar
do not spring from any lack of faith in
his eminent illness for the place nor yet
from the fact that he took a conspicuous
part in the late war It springs from a
desire to make political capital for the
Republican party and is only a dignified
method of waving the bloody shirt Such
conduct upon the part cf a Republican
Senate will redound not to the
good of the R publican pirty Tne Mug
wump element will be increased by
the acquisition cf a large number of Re-
publicans who are too honorable and de-
cent to stoop to or countenance conduct
so contemptible However there are a
large number of good Democrats from
smong whom can be selected a good
judge and while the shriekers may pre-
vent the confirmatiou of Mr Lamar they
must at least escort a Democrat to the
chair metaphorically speaking

To the Editor of tne Gazette
There being such great inquiry after
public lands the price quality and terms
upon which they may J e boughf it his
occurred to me that The Gazette would
ba a good medium through which the de-
sired information mightbe given publicity
a it is at a great trade and railroad center
and has s circulation which reaches far
a d wide The public retool lands of
Texas are principally located
in North and Northwest Texsa ard
are located alternately in sections of G40
cere tracts witb railroad lands Th re
are now unsold upwards cf 30000000
acres all of which is now on the market
for sale to actual settlers in quantities
from 1G0 to 640 acres at S2 to S3 per acre
en forty years credit interest 5 per cent
per annum
The purchoser must make sllidavit that
he ha3 settled on the land for the purpose
of
making
it a nome and the first pay
ment of onefortieta Gf the principal
muat accompany the application to
purchase The interest is payable on the
1st day of January of each ysar
nd the failure to pay the interest by the
1st day of August following the 1st day
of January st which it is due causes a
forfeiture of the land to the state The
payment of the principal alter the first
psymen may be postponed until tbe
close of the fortieth year This system
gives the pjor man witn limited means
an opportunity to secure a home and meet
the payments without any icouvenience
whatever These lauds ere largely cgri
cultural and very productive under propc r
cultivation and the home seeker has vist
bodies of rich valley and prairie lanes
from which to make his selection
The idea that has gone abroad that the
leasing sStem was an impediment in t e
way of the settlement of the country is
erroneous Under tht present adminis-
tration the homeseeker may go into any
pasture in the state and settle on school
buds and may purcnase 640 acres of the
siime by complying witn the law a bove
stated There is no other state o coun-
try that can offer such inducement3 to the
immigrant
These lands as most of the readers of
The Gazette are aware are in the
healthiest portion of our state a country
free from malarial feverp a climate uq
surpassed anywhere and its population
though rather spssce at present of tte
very best class of people rihe Texas and
Pacific Railroad runs through the public
school lands from BAirc Callahan county
to the city of El Piso and the immigrant
will fiad no trouble in finding just such
lands as he desires along this road in-
convenient distance to the sime
Texas now having the only lands that
can be bought on such favorable terms it
is not at all probable they will remain so
cheap for any great length of time So we
would advise the immigrant who desires
to cast his lot with us and make his home
under the clear skies and in the pure and
bracing atmosphere of Western Texas to
come right along bring your families
with you and If jou have means suffi-
cient to improve you a home and make a
start you will soon be satisfied that you
have made no mistake
