Tn democracy are quite anxious to
bare Ibe everlasting sllenoe of the re'
publican newspapers upon Minister Man'
nlng'sMexloo matter. The newspapers
will be silent when the racta are pub
llihed.and reports disproved orsubstan
tlated. The altitude of the administra

not been' such aa to entitle It to any

Tint Churchill resignation Is tbe one
theme of all nbiorblng Interest In Eng-
lish political circles. Handy does not
get much sj mpathy from any quarter
lie has put himself outside Ibe pale of
radical feeling and the conservatives al-
most unanimously condemn his course.
Ills resignation will not draw with at
present the resignation of any other
members of the cnblnet. Tbe early
meeting of p irllament which had been
decided upon In ilefrrenoe to his wishes
will not be held and It may be some
time late In February before parliament
Is brought together. In the meantime
lxrd .Salisbury Is In active correspond-
ence Willi Lord llartlngton now In
Koine and speoulatlon Is all abroad as
to whether a position In the Salisbury
cabinet will be n second time olfered
this gentleman or not. There Is a great
deal of lll-feellng.atid uneasiness as well
ovet the whole situation and opinions
are very much decided as to what In-
fluence If any Churchill's resignation
will have upon the foreign polloy or the
government. It will bo some lime be-
fore matters quiet down so that a relia-
ble consensus or opinion can be taken.

made to boycott the Herman merchants

compel them to leave tbe country. How
any permanent peate can be looked for
under such circumstances dues not ap-
pear and yet the seiul olllclal press of
bulb countries speaks conililrnlly of the
Increased cordiality or the relations be-
tween the two governments and of the
Increasing assurancis of peace.

Tur. liens of the death of John A
Logan which was Hushed over the wires
yesterday afternoon will bo sail news
to hundreds of thousands or bravo men
and tender hearted all our this coun-
try. As union soldier he was brave
loyal true tender and devoted; manly
and considerate to the weak; generous
tn his open toes and a strong hard
lighter both in tho tented Held and In
the halls of cungress. A u an of the peo-
ple and thoroughly sympathutla with
them Senator Logan bad won for him-
self a very warm place In the nllectlons
of his friends and a no less warm place
In the hatred of bis enemies. Ills ser-
vices In the army and In congress had
made his name a famlllir one In all
northern communities. Ills candldauy
fur the olllceof vice-president two short
years ago made his name a household
word In every state of tbls union. His
prominent mention as n presidential
possibility In 1SSS kept his name alive
before the people and he was the center
or much public Interest and speculation
Ills death so unexpected has startled
the whole nation. He tilled a largo place
In the publlo esteem and was very popu
ith his t arty. Ills death to their
and to Illinois in which statu he was
idolized will leave a blank no other can
till. He wus not a gn at statesman nor a
man or brilliant Intellectual gifts lie
was a uian ofsterllng sense Incorrupti-
ble Integrity large heart broad views
and national Ideas. A man respected
everywhere und most Idolized where
best known. Another strong man and
true American has passed away and for
him the nation mourns.
TllK announcement that Jay Oould has
bought a pew In church seems to strike
tnu average man as peculiar consider-
ing what was written suiue centuries
n co cernlng those who have riches
hefacts are hoeer that nearly all
or our wealthy men are II terul patrons
ofthe church and many of them regular
atleiutants al d coiuiuuiilraiits. No men
know better than Ihty the value ol a
church endorsement as a business con-
sideration and nothing returns a better
percent upon the Intealiuent.
Tiik Dig Urldgo City his got down to
hard pan In the matter ol uuearihlug
election fraud and punishing the per-
petrators. The cry or " Enforce the
election laws or repeal them1 Is heard
to good tfleel and Ibe rank and tile of
the democracy are quite willing to have
the work of Investigation proceed. The
grand Jury have dune tlulr duty in rit.
Louis In indicting the election Judges;
now let the courts do theirs in giving
Ihem a fair. Impartial trial and mating
out exact Judlie. No more than this
should be desired; no more can be legal-
ly undertaken.
Ulaiisione evidently holds his own
and despite all slanders bids bis time.
I'aruell keeps his own counsel and waits.
Too silence of these two Is ominous and
the Salisbury cabinet are not anxious to
convene parliament and expose their
government to tbe raking lire of these
antl conservatives. How far Gladstone
and I'aruell may agreo Is one question
and an open one. How far they are Ir
sympathy with their conservrtlve ad
ministration Is not un open one In this
they are agreed; war upon tbe
erclonlsts and war to the knife.
The attempt to move congress In the
direction of free sugar Is not amove In
the right direction no matter Irom
what quarter It comes. It Is not free
trade In anything that the United
States will be benetltted by save tucli
raw commodities as she does not raise
and does manufacture. Froleotlon for
all raw material she grows and for all
ber manufactured products; In other
words protection for everything which
Is tbe product of American labor and
such protection because thereby can
American labor be Itself protected and
only thereby. This Is the slmon pure
unadulterated republlcsn dootrlne.
Neodod Lawe Touching Land Ownership. '
For tho Iiohti I
The remaining publlo lands ol Texas
should be secured If po'slble to actual
settlers. In small tracts; and as a step
towards the accomplishment of this ob-
ject the law should prohibit any un-
naturalized foreigner or foreigners to
own land In Texas. Nopairlotle and
sensible citizen or Texas wishes to seo
Immense tracts or land owned by for-
eign ) ndlcotes or rich men resident In
Kurope even If they do open atoik
farms on such tracts. The incomes anil
protlla derived from stock farms owned
and opetated by foreign capitalists In-
stead or being expended in Texas would
lie either Invested or expended outside
ofthe limits of Texas and would there-
fore have no tendency tn enrloh Texas
or to develop her magnlllcunt latent re-
sourac. ll would bo n second edition
of Ilin chapter or Absenteeism that Im-
poverished Ireland de-plte tue fertility
of her soil and the ualiiilneaa oilier cli-
mate. H ror"lgn-rs desire to acquire land In
Texas let them become actual elliz-ns
by the process or nsturullZAtion. I'liere
Is neither Injustice nor hardship In such
n requirement. My creed Is that I he
citizens of a country should own the
lands In It but naturillzed citizens are
entitled to all the rights and benellts of
citizenship. I'lie legislature of IVxis
should enact a law prohibit-
ing foreigners to own lsiuls
In Texas dlrrcily or Indirectly that is
either In I la -ir own names or through
the trusteeship ol resident citizens.

The New York Sun does not take
much stock In tho Morrison Idea as one
likely to gain ground for the democratic
party and says that nothing could stop

crats are well nwaro. as was evidenced
by the manner In whloh they snowed
