IMMIGRATION.

From our exchanges from the older
States we learn that the desire for
Texas immigration Is at fever heat, but
owing to the scarcity of money, the
low price of cotton, and the almost
impossibility to sell real estate many
of those who would otherwise come to
us at once will be necessarily delayed
for the time being. Louisiana, with
her taxes, bad government and half n
million of official darkies and hungry
carpetbaggers, has her quota togivc us.
Mississippi, lately honored by the cleo
tion of Adclbert Ames to its chief mag
istracy, is waiting to send her heroic
sons to our wide plains and fertile val
leys. South Carolina and Alabama
also have many restless spirits who are
longing to cut loose from the political
expressions that prevail IN those States,
and find that freedom from the curses
of had government that Governor
Coke and his subordlnates will secure
to Texas and the Texans, 1t Is encour-
aging to know that the hope of the
oppressed all over the South follows
the "star of Empire" and ere long we.
trust that their relief may be accom-
pllshed, which can be effected in no
way more certainly than by emigrat-
ing to this State.

Ing, Good Morning, Mamma,"is is one
of the most beautiful we ever saw. 1t
aud its companion, 'The Trailing Ar

the price of the number. The double
sized, colored, steel fashion plate is nm
rivalcd, and will fascinate all the
ladies. Then there is a large coiofed
Berlin pattern, really superb affair,
and such as would cost, at retail
store, fifty cents. We do not exagger-
ate In saying that the January number
Is u perfect gom of loveliness. The
stories are all unusually good even for

REFUTED.

We referred some time before the
election to n report, said to he current
In Fort Worth, that the Democrats OF
Dallas would not vote for Bradshaw,
our nominee for the Senate-nay, even
more than this, that many Of them
would vote fur Radical In preference,
We at once denounced all snch reports
as false. Although Captain Guy, the
choice of Dallas county, was not nom-
mated, our Democracy is not made up
of such false-hearted men, but are al
ways true In the hour Of trial. We
now ask the public to say whether we
were right in denouncing the rumor Or
not. In the twelve precincts, heard
from to this time, Bradshaw has pre-
ciscly the same vote as Coke, viz;
l,55s-wlile the whole Democratic
legislative ticket Is covered by thirty.
Our own county man doubtless re.
celved the votes of few personal
friends among the opposition, but
among Democrats we 10 not believe
the whole ticket differed more than
half dozen votes In the county, and
this Is probably the result Of accident.
We challenge any county in the
State to show greater unity for Its leg
islative ticket, and trust our neighbors,
another time, will not swallow the
rabid rumors of simpletons, swayed by
nreiudice.

THE CITY OF AUSTIN.

AT the late election gave 130 majority
against the Constitutional Amend
ments. WhyP Because, If adopted,
the Supreme court would annually
meet ut two other places in the State,
instead Of sitting the whole year In
Austin. Hence, Austin would lose
many dollar and other parts of the
State would be relieved of serious bur-
dcns.
Austin also gave Jack Hamilton,
Radical candidate for the Senate, Is
majority over the Democratic nominee,
DR.. w. H. Westfall, pure and high.
toned man, but who happens to live in
Williamson county.
The people will remember this mean
selfshness Of majority of the people
Of Austin. Only one year ago, the
State generously voted for Austin as
the capital of the State-especially
Galveston and Dallas, the two places
at which the Supreme court ought to
be held, outside of Austin.
But a majority at Austin are not sat
isfed with having all the State offices
and institutions, and million of dol
lars in annual disbursements. Oh, no!
They want the last morsel, regardless
of the welfare of the balance of the
State. At every meeting Of the Legis-
laturo they want some additional relief
At the last, they wanted block of
State ground on which to build q Court
house, and 1t was given to them.
Now, for the future, we call upon our
Representatives to remember Austin
that is, her majOrity-and grant them
nothing by way of favor until they
learn the just demands of high-toned
political ethics.

THE hour Of victory, both In war
and politics, illustrates the true char
actcr of the victors. II governed by
passion, hatred and revenge, they will
trample upon the vanqulshed party.
But II their inspirations are drawn
from the principles Of justice and mag
nanimity--of u common sympathy
with their fellow-man--if they have
acted and triumphed from sincere
convictions of right, they will treat
their defeated opponents with every
consideration and kindness consistent
with the public welfare.
These views wo now earnestly COM
mend to our victorious brethren, the
Democrats of Texas. Let US, in the mo-
mcnt of victorious rejoicing, do no act
to exact regret at o later day. But,
rather, let us given virtuous illustra-
ton of the beauty, purity and magma
nimity Of genuine free institutions.
Let US not, because carpetbagging dem-
agogues have committed great out
RACES and misled the mass of the colOred
population in our State, let us not re-
turn evil for evil, but good for the
wrongs we have suffered. The black
peop,e and partial element of the
whites, have been led astray and great
ly to our injury. But the law of kind
ness is of great power. We desire
peace and harmony and generous con-
fidence among the people. Magnani-
nous generosity by the Democrats in
power will secure all three,

WAS anothrr crowded

YESTERDAY was another crowded
day on the streets Of Dallas. A gen.
tlcman who has lately visited most Of
the cities south and west says he has
nowhere seen, In an inland town, 30
much stir, SO many wagons freighted
with produce and leaving, bearing
away general merchandise, imple-
ments of husbandry, etc.
We are proud of the general bigh
character of our business men. They
are engaged In large and Legitimate
trade, and will not abuse the confidence
Of the country by STOPPING to dishon,
erable means in business. We do not,
In all respects, claim for Dallas univer.
sal lIberality. We think property
holders are sometimes at fault They
should be liberal and satisfied will
the real and extraordinary advance Ii
values and not demandkoo much. B,
SO doing they check growth, to theil
own detrimeBt But taken as whole
we doubt II there is much ground o
complaint even on this score TIT
rapid increase In population, building
and business continues In all its wont
ed spirit.

We once heard q man say, II was a
soldier in General Houston's army in
1896, but was sent on an express, and
failed to be in the battle Of San Jacinto.
/ would to-day, ten years after the bat
tie, give all l possess to be enabled to
say ] was soldier in that battle"
Just SO. Although he was off In the
discharge of his duty, under orders,
yet he felt that his children to come
after him could not say I've was SOL
iier In that decisive battle that gave
liberty to bis country.
We have just had, on Tuesday last,
another great battle, which has II sec
ond time broken the manacles Of Texas
and guaranteed freedom to her people
battle fought In the arena of peaceful
ballots, without the aid OF powder and
ball, musket or bayonet-yet we have
In Dallas county at least one thousand
profcssed friends Of liberty, whorefuscd
to spare two or three hours to drop in
their mites towards rescuing liberty for
themselves, their children and neigh
bors. They have refused to aid the
suffering people of other parts of the
State in throwing off the yoke of igno-
rant despotism. They have tacitly ex.
pressed an utter indifference as to
whether negroes and carpetbaggers
ruled in twelve or fifteen of the oldes,
and best counties in Texas. Ten years
later, when their SONS come before til,
people for Office, they cannot say "oui
fathers voted in the great army of lib
erty in 1873"

THE leading Republican paper OF
Washington, the Republican, speaks
as follows of the colored population OF
the South. Such language from such
a source is at least a cheering evidence
that passion is at last giving away to
calm observation and reason. The
Republican says:
One lesson the negroes will have to
learn is this: That having been made
citizens and voters, the white people
of the North and the government OF
the United States feel that they have
done their duty towards them. NO Ism
lasts long, and negroism, like all the
rest, must sooner or later come TO an
end. The war and its results pushed
the black race into undue prominence.
They are now beginning to recede TO
their proper level. The white North
ern race cannot be expected to form
perpetual alliance with them for the
political subjugarion of the whites or
the South. 1t is not in rcason-not In
the nature ofthings that they should DO
SO. The shrewd Northern mind has
already become convinced that negro
rule means material ruin, and the
Northern people desire that affairs III
the South shall be so administered as
to make that large and productive re-
gion tributary to the general prosperity.
