The Herald is authorized to announce
the name of
Hon. J. N. Garner
as a Candidate for Congress irom this
the Fifteenth District subject to the
Democratic Nominating Convention.
WEDNESDAY AUGUST 6 1S02.
If the government will nse Hit
surplus in the treasury to irrigatt
the arid regions of the West tin
country will forgive it the sur
plus.
Tttp. Intpst nhaseof "government
by injunction" is the suppression
oi' free speech. As free speech is
a fundamental right of American
citizens guaranteed by the Con-
stitution government by injunction
in this instauce at least is clear-
ly unconstitutional.
Iowa and Massachusetts have
fallen into the Roosevelt column
also and "Me Too" Piatt answers
for N- .v York as being assured
for Ron 'velt. It looks as if every-
thing t-publican were going Ted-
dv-waid and Mr. flanna must
begin to feel a bit lonely.
The reports concerning young
king Alfonso's conduct have a
rather saffron tinge but their
persistency makes it appear as if
therf may be some basis for them
.if his majesty is such a naughty
hoy as the press reports say he
might to be put into a dark closet
or sent to bed without his supper-
Some people are worried because
President Roosevelt is using a
government ship for a pleasure
yacht. If he never violates re
pnblicau principles to any greater
extent than that he will not do
any harm to the government which
was founded by our "daddies".
There is no more harm in his
using the Mayflower for a pleasure
sail than there is in his giving a
ball in the white house.
Col. Bryan in a speech at
Mouutain Lake Park Maryland
lest week said that he prefers the
honor of being a private citizen
and that he is "too democratic"
to covet the position of the presi-
dency. It is most likely that he
will have his ambition gratified
as ha has beeu twice defeated for
the presidency and even if he were
nominated again it does not seem
possible that he could be elected.
It is not even likely that he will
be nominated again however.
The King of Italy is visiting the
Emperor of Germany for the pur-
pose of inducing him to joiu in a
move for the reduction of the con-
tinental armaments. Meanwhile
Germany is making notable addi-
tions to her navy and the prospect
of a war with England with the
ultimate object of gainiug colonial
possessions for the Germans is
openly talked of. The Czarvof Rus-
sia may favor peace Frauce and
England may wish to avoid war
for the present but the German
empire is not believed to feel peace
fully inclined just now. It is even
hiuted vaguely that the Monroe
doctrine may yet be iriade a target
for some of Germany's big guns
if it should stand in. the way o2
that country's supposed designs
upon certain South American ter-
ritory. It is to be hoped though
that Victor Emanuel's mission of
peace may not be without results.
All the world is at peace now and
it would he a crime for any nation
to bring on au unprovoked and
unnecessary war.
Late Items.
J. P. Morgan has bought a hand-
some residence in London which
belonged to the Countess of Dud-
ley. Chicago grave diggers are on a
strike and funerals were turned
back from the cemetery gates last
week.
A colored seer has predicted the
destruction of Atlanta Oiiy N J
by a lidal wave on Aug. 16 The
0. H. weather- bureau will offset
the prediction by publishing a
statement.
The will of the late Lord Paunce
ote former British ambrssadn
a: Washington shows him to 'have
been worth abont 63700.
President Roosevelt will make
a personal investigation of the
troubles on board the Mayflower.
Half of the l4l sailors on the
ship are said to be ready to desert.
BROWNSVILLE WILL
GET A .RAILROAD.
The people of Brownsville expect
to get their first through railway
connection frou Mataraoros to
Monterey. Matamoros is just
across the Rio Graude from
Brownsville and it is now an as-
sured fact that the Matainorns
branch runniug to San Miguel will
be extended Mi Monterey. Tim;
branch is 7iiles in length and
is the pperty of the National
Railroad Company of Mexico. The
gap betweeu San Miguel and
Monterey will require the construc-
tion of a hundred miles or more of
new road and the National will
build this. The branch line to
San Miguel is a uarrow guage road
and all preparations are under way
to broaden it into' standard gauge
before very long. San Antonio
Express.
E GREEDY INFANTS WHOM
WE HAVE NOURISHED.
r a keg of wire nails the pur
chase- in the united States is com
pelled lo pay $2.25. The foreign
er can buy the same quantity aud
quality of uails for $1.30. The
American prlfce for a coil of rope
is $12. The foreigner can purchase
it for $5. For $2 onr combine
will give the foreiguer 100 pounds
of lead; the American however
must pay $4. The man across the
Atlantic can but a dozen American
shovels for $580; the man in the
United States must pay $7.50.
American washboards sell in Eu-
rope for $1.70 a dozeu; in the
United States for $3 a dozen. Our
tmplate trust will sell the Euruj-
pean purchaser 100 pounds of tin-
plate for $3.19. When the Ameri-
can buyer gives an order he miist
pay the trust $4.19 a hundred
pounds. The price of typewriters
in the United States is $100 iu
Europe $55. The foreigner can
buy an American sewing machine
for $17. The purchaser in the
United States must pay $40.
Americans have to pay $4.25 for a
lawn mower. Our Napoleons of
industry graciously permit the
foreigner to purchase a lawn mow-
er for $2.75.
It must not be overlooked that
the additional freight charge must
be deducted from the price at
which the manufactures are sold
abroad in order to give a fair es-
timate of the discrimination agaiust
us.
Thus we see that the American
consumer who has nourished and
bnilt up the "infant" is openly
robbed by his pet This is an
abuse which American consumers
who are heavily taxed to maintain
the high profits of the industrial!
combinations will not tolerate in-j
definitely. The Democratic leaders'
are wise in making it an issue in
the congressional elections this:
year. The facts ought tobe brought
home to the people and the found-
ation laid for an effective campjiigu
of education in the next Presiden-
tial contest. The tariff issne and
the relation of the alleged trusts to
the tariff should be emphasized at
every opportunity. Around this
question center the chief troubles
and dangers against which the
American people now have to con-j
