Edwin Gould, vice president of
the Cotton Belt, was in Dallas
Wednesday.
Horace Chilton, the auburn-
haired statesman of I'yler, has an-
nounced himself a candidate for
the United States Senate. Chil-
ton is one of the brainest men in
the state.
Just why all the Tammany chiefs
are coming to Texas we cannot
understand. But while our climate
is salubrious we are satisfi
ed that the sachems are not
coming for their health.
From the assertions of the new
Premier of England, it is safe to
-say that it is a mistake to think
the grand old man left <lpoor old
Ireland out in the cold." Though
they "sigh for the touch of a long
vanished hand, and a sound of a
voice that is still."
The Oriental Hotel at Dallas
has been sued for the small sum of
$156,000 by the chamber-maids
who were injured by the falling of
the elevator recently. The Orien-
tal is one of the finest hotel struct-
ures in the south but if the dam-
sels secure damages in accordance
with their modest (?) demands it
won't have capital enough left to
operate a second class soup house.
The attorneys in the Brecken-
ridge-Pollord case, came to blows
after the adjournment of court
Monday. During the progress of
the trial, at the mention of Miss
Pollord's dead baby, she swooned.
It is said that much incriminating
evidence has already been given
against Col. Beckenridge, and one
need notjae nor afraid to
to-^s-y vii&i) "there id" no^-fcol li-lve
l old fool."
The central Board of Education
in Pittsburg Pa., has decided that
the five sisters of charity who have
been teaching in one of the public
schools in that city will ha^e to
leave off the peculiar dress of their
order or cease teaching in the
school. The board holds that, the
wearing of a religous habit is sec-
tarian and hence a violation of the
constitution of Pennsylvania.
The present condition of affairs in
Brazilis an answer to the populists
who point to that country to show
the beneficent results of fiat money
and government ownership of rail-
road; not that these in Brazil are
the causes of the trouble but that
troubles will exist in any and all
governments that are human in
their organization just as 'mistakes
are apt to happen in the best of
families.'
What the democratic party wants
is harmony, and that on principle;
what the basis of the forth
coming harmony will be just now,
no one can tell, but surely the two
factions cannot come together mere-
ly in name, and in action. They
must stand squarely upon the same
platform. How can Mr. Baker,
and Mr. Matlock each answer the
tirade of the Populist on the dem-
ocratic administrations, if one of
tliem only indorses them?
During last week an A. P. A.
lecturer was holding forth in the
auditorium at Dallas, and become
rather abusive of the Catholics for
the course of the Pope of Rome
and other church dignitaries in
their efiorts to get control of the
public schools and also legislative
and executive offices in state mu-
nicipal and national administra-
tions, and some one in the audience,
presumably a Catholic, shot at him
three time's with a pistol. This
was as poor a method of answering
the lecturer as the A. P. A's. meth-
od of dealing with the Catholics.
The man gave up to the authori-
ties the next morning and gave
bond to answer a charge of assault
with intent to murder.
Hon. Dudley G. Wooten by in-
vitation addressed an audience of
several hundred laboring men at
the city hall in Dallas on Monday
night- Mr Wooten among other
strong and sensible remarks de-
nounced what he termed, "the
wild and visionary schemes of the
anarchists, socialists and commnn-
ists" for said he: "I am your friend
and speaking to you as your friend
and well wisher, but let me tell
you, I am a better friend to the
constitution and laws of my coun-
try. You are an organization with
a laudible and noble purpose, but
society is an older and stronger
organization than any other among
civilized men, and under its estab-
lished institutions for the preser-
vation of liberty regulated by law
it will not fail to protect itself
against the fantastical fanatical
and revolutionary vagaries and
violence of lawless men under
whatever name and device they
may assail social order and securi-
ty."

In the shops of the C. H- & D.
railroad at Hamilton, O., is a
cracked locomotive bell that has a
history. It was attached to a lo-
comotive presided over by a strong,
manly, handsome engineer, whose
great objects of pride and adora-
tion were first his sweetheart and
then his faithful engine. He lov-
ed them both devotedly, though of
course in quite different ways- One
day at Hamilton he stood in the
cab of the engine, bell rope in
hand, ready to move the lever and
start the train, when he saw a bri-
dal party approaching He glanced
at the bride; it was the girl he
loved. His heart stopped beating,
he gave a groan, and dropped—
dead. As he fell, with the bell
rope in his band, he gave the bell
a loud ring that cracked it from
top to bottom, and it was fonnd
afterward that he had died literally
of ?. broken heart. The bell in the
shops at Hamilton is still called
"the bell of the broken heart."—

If there is any truth in the pub-
lisned statements with regard to
the movements of large organized
bodies of unemployed men towards
Washington in military style.
There is going to be trouble soon.
According to one publication over
800 men in California have organ-
ized under ..the ^mmand of
Gen. Frye who has sent notice to
Secretary of war, Lamont, of the
movement of the army and de-
manded that he issue rations for
them and also transportation. Gen.
Frye states that the army will num-
ber 3,000,000 by the time it
reaches Washington and intimates
that Uncle Sam cannot afford to
refuse. If this means war, this
kind of war means anarchy, and
the whole business means an at
tempt to carry legislation at the
muzzle of guns and at the point of
the bayonet, and this means that
every citizen in this government
will take part in it. We hope the
reports are untrue.

Through chairman, Waller S.

ot Texas, who he says have never
refused him anything he asked.He
gives no reason for his retirement,
but it is presumed that he has sim-
ply tired of public service, and
wants the rest so much needed by
one who has been in the harness for
more than a quarter of a century.
The populists are about to send
a troupe through Kansas to put
some calamity pla3Ts ^n the stages
of the theatres, and try to do some
political work in that direction.
This strikes us as appropriate-
The whole populist affair is but a
comedy, and the plays to repre-
sent it should be the broadest of
farces. Jerr'y Simpson will be a
splendid clown; Peffer a heavy
villain; Mrs. Lease for a song and
dance, and Leweiling for a shy-
lock. we could get up a fine farce
in Texas, with Bill Farmer, for a
pantaloon, Cyclone Davis, a trick
mule covered with lions' skins;
Harry Tracey would make a good
end man, and Nugent to take tick-
ets at the door- Put the force on
th3 stage by all means. It will be
a fitting finale to as farcial a party
as ever showed itself before the
public.—[Greenville Headlight.
What the Southern farmer (at
least of Texas) buys and what he
sells. He buys his meat, flour,
syrup, coffee, sugar, canned fruits,
hominy, potatoes, beans, canned
corn in fact all his staple and
fancy groceries, he buy-* his dry
goods, clothing, boots, shoes, hats,
caps, and everything even his
cotton sacks for gathering his cot-
ton, his hardware,tinware, earthen-
ware, wagons, buggies, plows, all
farm machinery, his nails, glass,
and all building material, and fre-
quently buys his butter and milk,
all these things he buys. And he
sells—cotton.
The populists now say that har-
mony between the two Democratic
factions is just what they have all
the time been wanting. No doubt
as they can't be harmonius them-
selves ,they think certainly others
who have been in politics so long
and know a thing or two ought to
able to a^ree. Yes the populists
are anxious for democratic harmo-
ny?

The famous Tom Ochiltree seems
to have gotten into a little trouble
by being cross-examined recently
in a case whare the wonderful Tom
wasprosecutiny witness. The attor-
ney for the defense asked the red
headed Co!. some insulting ques-
tions. Now it is reported that the
one—time Texas has challenged
the attorney.
A northern scientist argues that
it would be far better for the
health of husbands and wives if
they would occupy separate couch-
es. This reformer will soon find
that he has quite a job on his
hands—the male population like
to slerep with their feet warm.
Dallas, Ft. Worth, Paris and
