Capital Fled.

Capital fled from u.s." says the address
of the McEnery committee Of New Orleans.
This is cool. Capital rushed eagerly TO the
South. to till the openings left by the DESC
lations OF the war. The South needed
capital. and the inducements were great tor
capital to 60 there. How was il received +?
The first condition for the security OF CAPT.
tai was the surrender. on the part of the
capitalist. OF his political and social opin.
ions. whenever they differed from those
which are held as orthodox in the South.
The penalty OF this is not only social ostra-
cism. but the insecurity OF property. A
white Republican is regarded there as the
associate of negroes: is held in contempt
and subjected to insults which brave men
will not, indeed. hesitate to encounter in
the way of their duty, but which no
man who regards his comforts will seek.
1t would just suit old John Brown. and
some OF the more contentious men and
women. TOO, who shave q mission and
who'delight to be prosecuted. and are all
the more likely to go into just such incon.
venience and just such danger. But they
are not the people who develop the re-.
sources and build up the industries of a
community. The South needs capital, and
drives it away. Only those to whom capi.
tai is most needfui have the power to repel
it. There IS everything in the natural con.
dition of the South to attract capital; there
is everything in the conduct of the people
to keep 1t away, and TO drive it away after
II has gone there, in spite of them. CAPITAL
has tied from them as the lamb flees from
the cobber. as men Ties from pestilence. Ii
the people OF the South want the capital Of
the North. they know how to get it: if they
don want 1t, they know how to drive it
Off, by their acts. not by their professions.

See! left and right of US.
Far out Of sight OF US,
His mighty battaliOns
Are marshaled to day!
Standing up, one by one
High in the cleaning sun.
See the lines stretching
Away and away.
No guns or cannOnade
Marshaied on dress parade
Only the cleaning blade;
Mark you that gle aiming blade
Artisan never made
Emerald uniform,
rassels OF gold.
Banners Of silken sheen:
Deep their bright folds between
A cOrEucoPia
Each soldiers hands hold.
Long since their march begun;
Ne'er viii their march be done
Till, meath the setting sun
How their heads, ono by one
Bow in the sunshine.
The Ocean to greet:
Know neither pause nor rest
Never till CLEANS their crest
Ger all the mighty West.
And the waves OF Ocean
Roll at my fees.
Prairies grow green with them:
See you the sheen of them
Line upon line OF them
Stretching away.
Ranks upon ranks OF them.
Emerald banks OF them.
Who will Outnumber
These legions to day
Kings upon ancient thrones,
Builded on human bones.
Meath whose foundation stones
Hear We nations grOans.
Merit your armies
Zen Fame's transient BREATH
Out on the whole of them!
Bot out the roll of them:
What 10 their merit
Save blOOdshed and death.
And hail to our glorious
Armies victorious!
Hear ye the cheers fox them.
Conquering poverty.
Blessing the earth.
And bidding defiance
To Ogres and giants
That haunt the Old World
Gaunt Famine and Death.
These are ''ouf coEntry's pride,'
Reaching out tar and wide.

Cleaning their crest:

Long may the fair legiOns
OF Plenty and Peace
Stand guard DER the West.

n. J. Franks Hardware House,

The record for straightforward deal
ing carried by this house, with the
breadth of trade il encompasses,
stamps it with the reputation Of being
one of the most firmly established and
reliable mercantile institutions in the
city. Always abreast of the times in
the character, both rs regards quality
and quantity of its goods, there is no
establishment in the city that carries u
better stock or one OF more compre-
hensive range, or whose books can
show heavier sales. In addition to the
superior shelf goods, which are classi-
fled by experienced hands in the new
store room Of Sangers building on
Main street, to which Mr.. Frank has
just removed, room has been set
apart in the rear Of the sales depart
ment, especially for the stocking of
iron of all sizes and kinds, thus max
ing as complete hardware lines as can
be found anywhere in North Texas.
For the advertisement of this substan-
tial house, we refer our readers to
