litical PARTIES, the SOeiaLDemOcratc and the
Christian-SOcial. The former is rampant. bel
ligercnt and destructive in its tendencies. The
latter takes its stand on the basis of the
Christian sreligiOn and the love of king and
fatherland, 1t rejects the present Social
Democratic party as impractical, un Christian
and unpatriotic. 1t desires peaceabe organ
izatiOn Of working men which, in conjunction
with the other factors of the state, will bring
about necessary practical reforms, and pur-
sues as lis object the securing of greater eco
nomical security and equality, in order to
overcome the present strife between the rich
and the poor" With few unimportant mol
ifcations due 10 diversity in governments
these two parties, whether organized or not,
exist among the working men of all countries.
Will the labOring classes of the United States
be Social Democrats or Christian SOcials?

HONORABLE D. A. NUNN, of Houston
county, is prominently mentioned in
several of the east Texas papers for the
position of attorney general, which, il is
generally understood MAYOR Boone, the
present efficient incumbent, does not
desire to hold beyond his present term.
Captain Mum is lawyer of distinction
in east Texas, and was prominent
member of the last constitutional con.
vention, a me mber of the judiciary
committee of that body, and took a
leading part in its deliberations. A
man of unblemished moral character,
splendid physique, and of superior legal
attainments, he would make an attor,
ney general of whom the state might
well be proud.

Now that the silver dollar and silver
money of all denominations is plentiful
nobody seems over anxious about them;
the same is true in reference to paper
money; the same may be said of gold
Many OF the banks are paying out gold
for their paper issue, but nobody seems
to care for it. It's the old story, Hu>
man nature is ever the same. We want
what we cant reach, and when it falls
into our lap we Immediately cease to
see anything desirable about it.

In the death of John Morgessey, New
York has lost another of its great men.
Close on the heels of Tweed, he has
gone to his last account. lie has filed
a large place, for many years, in the
only community in America where such
man could have risen to such posi>
ton. Like nearly all professional gam,
blers, he died comparatively poor, his
estate being worth only about thirty
thousand dollars
