HENRY Z. McCULLocH's report, giving
the Legislature precise and excellent ac-
count OF the condition of the Deaf and
Dumb Asylum, has been placed before the
public. Three deaf aud dumb boys have
become very good printers, we are told.
There are forty seven pupils In the school,
thirty men and boys and seventeen girls and
young ladies. 1t is difficult to teach TIE
mature successfully, and therefore Mr.. Nc
Culloch advises that the deaf and dumb
be sent to the asylum in their early youth.
There Is one teacher and one assistant
teacher employed in the school, and one Of
the advanced pupils teaches the junior class
Two thousand dollars are asked for to
cover deficiencies for this year, $1,000 to
establish shops, $500 or $4,000 for the
services Of experienced mechanics to in
struct the boys, $4,000 as a clothing fund,
TO be used If actually necessary, and $i2, 900
to defray the current expenses of the in
stitution, making in all $40, 900 for the first
year, and $l2, 900 each year thereafter.

DoN PIArr is lawyer, so-called. He
was educated for that trade, but became
an editor. In driving some scheme that
paid Don some $50, 200, more or less,
through some slippery department or bogus
Washington court, Don was accused of ac-
cep:ing blaekmail. Don at once donned
the garb OF lawyer, faced the mob, the press
and the music, and was acquitted of all
blame. II Don had been nothing more
than an editor the transaction would have
damned him. We state the facts to show
that much higher standard Of morals is
applied in measuring an editors than a law
yer's personal worth. As editor of the
oepital he might be accused of blackmail-
ing. but as member of the legal profess
SION he has simply accepted retainer.

THE war upon the ~retched occupation
tax wakes ho:. 1t Is certainly most unjust
in operation and more unequal than un-
just. All honest occupations, not in der
ogation Of good morals, should pay in pro-
portion to capital invested OF to incomes
derived from the profession or trade Bat,
after all, whatever the tax imposed upon
professions and trades aud agencies, the
money comes ut last ont Of the producers
Of the country, and the tax might as well
be imposed upon them in the first place.

DREADINo the scalpers, the railway COM
panies fear to reduce rates to and from
Philadelphia and Texas. If this reduction
be contemplated no more railroad tickets
will be sold till these are issued, and trav-
elers to st. Louis or to Denison or Little
Rock will buy Through tickets" and sell
to the scalpers at Little Rock or Denison
or St. Louis who will supply the whole
travel ofthe country at rates ruinous to the
roads. But railroads have no rights
which people may not violate with impu-
nifty, and 1t is right to rob them o.. Such
is the code of morals inculcated by law
making bodies which punish no robbery OF
railways and ART ever pandering to the in
stincts of demagogues by legislating against
them

ALor Of roughs and accompanying pick
pockets are travelling over the State. They
give sparring matches, and spare nothing
they can get from the pockets of specta-
tors. There are too many shows by half in
Texas; but this last is simply intoleraele,
aud should be expelled by the police from
incorporated villages and towns. We are
robbed Of perhaps million per annum by

THERE is DO doubt that Grant prefers
Conkling as his successor. He is later
friend than Washburne, who has been some
years in France. No charges of dishonesty
have ever been preferred against Coukling,
He has confessedly great ability, is an &C.
comphshed lawyer and rhetOrician and only
the victim OF inordinate vanity. He has
never faltered in adhesion to the President
and his fidelity to his friends can therefore
never be questioned. 1t is enough for US to
know that he is the chosen successor of
Grant, and there is no reason why, in por-
traying his virtues and faults, we should
not speak of him with uRmixed, unre-
strained trutLfulness. He will be especial
ly favored by those who love red-headed
tops and distinguished swells, and in this
we cannot help remarklng how unlike he
is to the next Senator from Texas.

IT Is enormous tsxation-local, State and

ders progress impossible. Those who pay
should alone impose taxes, and the condi-

When pair of boots cost weeks work
working people can't wear boots, and when
the tariff makes hat worth $3.50 cost
So, toiling people cannot afford to buy
such hats, and merchants wares rot upon
their shelves. When the enormous cost of
