always fought this plank of the plat
form, and will be responsible for all
the dissatisfaction, the failure to carry
The Waco daily examiner. [volume] (Waco, Tex.) 187?-1888, 1874-02-05

A Brooklyn matrimonial agency
advertises for q stock of dumb wo>
men. We suppose the dumb article
Is In demand with dealers who do not
relish the idea of their wives on the
stump and rostrum. The highest pre-
rogative Of the women should be the
absolute control of the butter and egg
business, but whenever she thrusts
her digits into the pockets of q pair
Of breeches, she should be raped
over the knuckles. OF all the detest-
able characters on earth, defend US

The State Journal has gone back
to ten years ago, and is trying hard
to make a sase against the people Of
the South from that date. Pshaw,
old 81; ten years Is time enough to
fix the status of individuals, parties
and nations. What's the use Of fight
ING men and issues which died ten
years since. The present is ours, the
past is Gods, and the future belongs
TO our common country. You have
lost this last fight, now cultivate
what grace you may, and act upon
the advice you gave us ten years
ago: "Accept the situation, for you
have no power to change it." The
shoe pinchss the other corn now.

THE PUBLIC WEIGHER.

We are at loss to understand on
what tho objections Of the News to
Mr.. Simpsons bill rests, providing
for the appointment of o Public
Weigher. The bill provides for the
appointment of This truly important
officer-important to every planter
and shipper by the Governor.
Fair dealing and honesty in the
administration of the duties of the of,
fee is sought to be enforced: Every
planter and shipper we have heard
express himself on this subject insists
upon the passage of this law. When
it Is remembered that nearly the
whole cotton crop Of the Stat passes
through the hands of the welgher,
upon whose honesty and correctness
every planter depends for the COM
pensation of his toll and industry, it
may be understood how much this
matter interests him. We will fol.
low the bad example of the News in
addressing word to the members on
this subject, differing, however, In its
purpose. We say to Mr.. Simpson :
Push your bill through to law, and
force every one opposing the bill, if
there are such, who wish to 60 on the
record thus, to come out plain.
We deem it proper to call attention
to the bill now pending with reference
to Insurance sni the regulation
thereof in this State. We have long
and badly needed some law upon this
subject, and hope that the interests
OF the people in this respect will be
considered and carefully guarded by
sound legislation ON the subject.
