the grasses arc rich and sweet, tho
water is plenty and pure from tho

The transportation facilities, it is in

GIDINEss in Importance to
the habit Of self-help We would place
that OF personal ti..ness. We do not
care to guess how many American men
and women sit down to breakfast cv-
cry morning with, their toilets half
made, the men without collar and era
vat, the women with unkempt hair,
and the children resembling the pa
rents in dress as much as in feature.
+. But you see there are 50 many things
to do in the morning-stock to feed,
cows to milk, fires to make, milk to
skim, children to dress, breakfast to
get-that one can't spend much time
in fixing themselves up" All very
true; but one doesn't go round bare
footed in the morning, or without
washing face and hands, because .
habit the reverse OF all that has been
formed.

the one particular Of seeing her every

TuE HOUSTON AGE AND JUDGE
HANCOCK.

The Age runs the name of Judge
Hancock toils mast head, and VIII
support him during the campaign AZ
the same time II claims the privilege
of entering upon record the reasons OF
It's opposition 10 his nomination. It's
opposition rests upon four grounds.
First In the language Of the Age, "we
do not believe that JudgollapeooliwW
fnirly nominated" This objection Is
based on tile fact that the votes OF San
Saba, Brown, Coleman and Runnels
counties were cast for Hancock In dis
regard of the instructions given by the
conventions at which their delegates
were appointed not to vote iorany man
who had voted for the back pay bill
in congress.
Secondly, awe do not believe that
John Hancock was the actual choice
Of even a majority Of the delegates
present"
The reason Of this position Is stated
rs follows: rfa tH
On u test vote, ms between him and
Seth Shepard, Shepard received the
majority, while allowing Hancock the
votes, which we have shown him to
have had no just claim To. AS to how
his nomination was carried, with II
majority against him, that Is some
| thing that no one can very well eX-
pmin, and that no one, perhaps, can
understand, save those who were there
aud saw the mastery tactics Of those
veteran wire-workers "l}uck' Wall,
ton, Charley West, A. w. Terrell and
n. q. Shelly, of the Austin 'ring,"
Thirdly, We do not like John Ham
cock, because he has robbed Ben But
Ter of the distinction that Butler has
heretofore enjoyed in solitary grandeur
---of being the only man on this conii-
nent who would falsely, foolishly and
lraniically denounce the public press
OF America.
Fourthly, We dislike John Hancock
Because of his vote on the "increased
salary and back pay" bill, of the forty.
second congress.
On this point the Age says;
As to tho. boast of John Hnncock's
friends, that he shows honesty aud
pluck in standing up for the correct
ness of his vote on the "baclS pay" bill,
they show, we think, n misapprehen-
sion AZ to the fact. He said at Bren-
ham, we admit, that he considered the
vote the hest he had ever cast but we
do not think that he meant what he
said.
The only time when his courage on
that point was brought to n substantial
test was on the thirteenth day of Jan
uarv last, when the bill to repeal the
net in question came before the house
for its action, and an examination of
the record shows Judge Hancock
standing, not with the thirty and six
who still stood by the act, but with the
two hundred and twenty-five who
voted fori repeal. 1t will not do to
say that the honorable gentleman be-
lieved, on the last day OF the forty.sec-
ond congress, that to be the best vote
ofhis life, which IN n very early part
of the next congress he deliberately
voted to nullify.

The true story of Sam Houston's
resignation of the governorship of this
state aud joining the Cherokees in

since, from the lips of u gray-haired
resident of this city, who had been the

was soon made an ensign, and was the

and was appointed sub'agent to the
Cherokee Indians, but lie soon got into
a quarrel with Calhoun, thensecretiiry
of war, and was removed. Then he
came to Nashville in 1878. He began
to study law with Judge Trinble, and
in six months time was admitted to
the bar. At the first session of the
Legislature, after this, he was elected
attorney general of the state over
Francis b. Fogg, who was one of the
most poniinent and scholarly lawyers
in the state.
''He was then sent 10 congress, where
he was warm Jackson man, and
while there had difficulty with John
L. Irwin, and when they both came
back to Nashville Irwin challenged
him, sending his challenge by noted

several mon, lie was not considered
a gentleman, and Houston would not

eral White heard Of this and made
some remarks about Houston, which
led to u duel between Houston and
White, In which White was seriously
wounded.

Houston, and he was elected governor
