WE are deeply panied to learn of the
death Of the Hon. John T, Smith, rep
resentative from Houston county, with
whom we were closely associated In
the Thirteenth Legislature. He was n
man of excellent heart, practical judg-
ment aud much intelligenee-a first
class farmer, and also an old steamboat
commander. He was native of New
York, butsa devoted citizen of the
South. His children have our fullest
sympathics In their bereavement, their
mother having gone before.

WEare glad to learn that the farmers
and landholders, on the line of the
Dallas and Wichita railway in this
county have almost universally dona-
ted the right of way to the company.
This is c0mmendable spirit. 1t must
be manifest to all that the building
of this important road, from Dallas to
Denton aud thence northwestw ardly
to the coal and copper fields, will great
ly enhance the value of all adjacent
and neighboring lands. Proprietors
must understand that this is not q rich
corporation, but young and feeble
company, unable to build the road
unless aided BY the people in such
matters as right of way, etc. Its depot
is In rather remote part of Dallas,
where, without the road, property can
not become valuable; while with it
and its depot these same lands would
at once command good prices. 1t
would be suicidal in property owners
in that vicinity to claim damages for
the right of way. Ifthey should other
parties are ready to furnish depot
grounds elsewhere, backed by a free
rightof way for five miles beyond tie
city limits, by which the property now
toibe. benefited would remain, as here
tofore, outside of the boundaries of inn
proveaent, and therefore sof little
value. aYzsl au s2lgMl'1ts
The true policy in all. such gases is
liberalityy and we are glad that those
interested are manifesting the proper
spirit. y - = -" s"-V@- 70 TT %

| AM pretty we'll convinced
Of the truth of the doctrine Of
total depravity OF human ma.

observed growing out OF this
deplorable state of things is,
tn 1t some calliDgs are better
nurseries Of human depravity
than others, and some men that
are pretty shrewd get to think
they know it all and undertake Q
to do things and find them-
selves whitfield of to a very
small point. Though a COM

the temperance people In al

one true man that was present
say that he would vote for IL

THERE must be a misunder-
standing as to the effect of the
passage of the new license
clause OF the proposed new con
siilutiOn. Persons who differ
widely in sentiment find them
selves strangely united in fact.
Thus: Henry Reynolds says the
trade in whisky should be as
Tree as the trade in -four. He
is opposed 10 license. Patrick

saysnhe pays a tax now to the
general government, he don't
want to pay any more, and
will vote against license Many
temperance people who wish to
srestriot the liquor trade are la
boring shoulder to shoulder
with the two classes represent
ed above, against license. II

is going to be fooled and the
experience of the last twenty
years shows that it is not the
