In its soreness over its defeat in
the matter of restricting suffrage,
the Statesman has gone raving stark
mad. Now, the known and accept
ed enemies Of the Grangers, espe-
cially Democratic Grangers, would
charge the reverse of the result on
the poll tax vote in the Convention,
up TO them as a most grievous fault,
but with this inside enemy, whyl a
virtue must do duty, for the nonce,
as great crime. The time has
passed in America when the fran

citizen by other power than his own.
Our only remedy for a possible

THE DANGER or DELAY.

The danger of delay is being full
ly illustrated in the growing dissat;
isfaction over the State with the
Convention. To say there
is no cause for i'll humor on
this poin. would be doing great VIC
olence to truth. Perhaps the most
serious injury likely to arise, aside
from the money squandered, is the
fact that the delay gives such dis
affected journals as the Statesman
and the News opportunities to hatch
up such vile ISLANDERS as the former
has already done with regard to a
certain baseless coalition, of which
1t has written for week. Among
well informed people, men who
think, and who have read the sheet,
the effect will not be observable,
but to the Radical foes of Texas, to
sore heads and cavillers it will con
stitute sweet morsel, and will be
rolled under the tongue with the
same gusto that misapplied appro-
priation was in the palmy days of
the Davis administration.
Let il be remembered that the
Statesman has labored with might
and main to create schism in the
ranks of Democracy, ever since II
failed to get the public printing,
and the News never could, with the
least satisfaction utter clear Dem
ocratic sentiment. Then, too, the
present Convention is the child of
Radical hate, and the efforts of Rad
icalism, to protect its own offspring
only natural. They stand pledged,
with all their power and
address, to force defective
Constitution through, that its defeat
may be assured before the people,
as they expended the force and en-
ergy of their party to defeat the call
of the Convention, and in the same
line and for the same purpose. One
of the great dangers of delay is,that
1t creates, as before remarked, dis
satisfaction in our own ranks, thus
playing directly into the hands of
our bitterest foes.
No one need be deceived by the
course of the papers named, because
every one expected them to take ex
actly that course. Their prime OBJ
ject Is to defeat the Democracy, ,and
they know that the vast majority OF
Grangers, in their political faith, ARE
Democrats, and if they could faster
some such change as n coalition witt
Radicalism upon the Order, tn,
weight of the obloquy would fal
upon the Democracy, which the,
hate with deathless fervor, ant
which the monstrous connection
existing only in the disor
dered brain of the Statesman, wa
designed to accomplish.
BY delaying the day when tn
new Constitution is to be submitte,
to the people, the Convention j
playing indirectly into the hands o
the disorganizers, and unwittingly i
is lending itself to the nefariou
purposes of the renegades and con
spirators who are wreaking thei
petty spite upon a party which will
never lend itself to their unholy de
signs upon the Treasury of State
they had hoped to plunder withou
let or hindrance throughout Coke,
as they did Davis administration.
Patrons may smile at this wea
effort of an open and avowed ene
. my to injure them and soil the skirt
of the Order, but it is the task O
the Democracy to meet and crus
the foe, under this new disguise.

s0The papers are discussing the
relative merits of the two plans OF
advertising by drummers or through
the papers. Now, we may not be
considered impartial testimony, but
nevertheless, it is our honest convic-
ton that advertising through the
papers is not only vastly cheaper,
but, beyond all expression, better
and more effective. As this is n
matter affecting the interests OF
consumers of all classes, because
they, in every instance, pay the ex-
pense, it may not be out of place to
say that the cheapest is the best. A
good drummer" costs a house at
least twenty-five hundred dollars
per year, at least that much more
in expense, and then he can see only
a very small part of the people who
can be reached by the papers, at a
cost several hundred per cent. below
the drumming plan.

evening. Bishop Pearce is said to be
an eloquent speaker and a close and

will have an opportunity of seeing and
listening to him.

and causing instant death.

The farmers are getting their cotton
out rapidly during this fine weather,
and the fleecy staple is coming into
market in considerable quantities, and
is being sold to pay oil debts ana pur
chase supplies for the family and farm.
The cotton crop of this county was
never finer, and closes year of unex
ampled prosperity and good fortune to
the farmers. Small grains, corn and
cotton have all yielded abundantly.
and the farmers of Northern Texas are
blessed with plenty. We are glad to
see the cotton trade opening briskly in
our own city. 1t brings Ms good
price here as in Dallas, and goods can
be purchased cheaper here than there.

HOW FAR WILL BEES GO FOR HONEY ?

The above question, we believe, has
never been satisfactorily answered.
A bee keeper once tried the old ex-
pertinent Of busting his bees with,
flour as they left the hive, then rode
to a heath seven miles away, where
he discovered his white bees. busily
engaged in collecting honey. This
experiment, however, cannot be re-
lied on, for the simple reason that
pollen, with which bees are frequent
" completely covered, bears a close
resemblance to -four, and might read
lily be taken for it when the bees are
on the wing. It is our belief that
they seldom venture more than three
miles from home, for We have known
them to be in a starving condition
when another apiary only four miles
away was flourishing and gathering
stores rapidly. 1t has in recent years
been proved by italian bybrids that
queens have met with drones which
were known to be at least three miles
away, but this will scarcely apply to
worker bees fitting about from flow
er to flower; they must become wea-
ry before they are four or even three
miles from home. o..
