Nor long ago trade and travel were
taken from cities on the very banks
of the Mississippi to New York, Phil
adelphia and Baltimore now that the
mouth of tHe river is partially opened,
the course of trade is reversed and
turned towards these cities on the riv-
er, and thus they are enriched by the
people Of the great valley, and COM
nercial, like political facts, are indie
alive of the final Liberation of the
West and South from the grasp of the

fore US. We need only to be true to

The Greenback Platform

WHEREAS, The object of our repupli.
can government is to prosect alike the
rights of every individual in the Union,
irrespective of section, State, riches,
poverty, race, color or creed and
Whereas, Both the old political par
ties have pers;stently ignored this fun
damental principle; heve encouraged
sectionalism, fostered monopoly and
carried on financial system so radi-
cally wrong as to pauperize the masses
to support chosen few in idleness and
luxury.
Therefore, we the delegates of the
Independent Greenback clubs of the
State of Texas, in convention assem-
bled, do hereby sever all connection
with other parties, organizing our
selves under the name of the Indepen-
dent Texas Greenback party, and make
this our declaration of our principles
l.. The greenbsck. dollar must be a
legal tender for the payment of all
debts, and by the government Issued,
protected and received at par with
gold.
Q. The greenback to be legal ten
der money of the country, and to be
issued by the government.
8. The general government alone TO
issue money, and this for the benefit of
all, and not to, through or for the en-
richment of national bankers.
4. All kinds of property owned by
individuals or corporations to be taxed
alike.
5. The immediate calling in of all
United States bonds, and the payment
of them, principal and interest, in
legal tender lawful greenback paper
money of the United States; and that
every dollar of such issue as legal
tender lawful money be protected by
the government as at par with other
lawful money In gold or silver coin,
never to be converted into bonds Of
any rate or class.
@. Universal manhood suffrage, with
out property qualification.
2. An efficient system Of public free
schools, commensurate with the growth
and importance of our State.
s. A graduated income tax, by which
accumulated wealth may be made to
bear just proportion of the burdens
of government
0. No squandering of the public do
main upon private corporations.
10. Nocontract system by which con-
Wet labor is brought in competition
with honest labor.
IL. A more efficient system Of crimi-
nal procedure for the suppression of
crime.
12. Honesty and economy in the ad-
mInistrstion Of public affairs, both
State and national.

]. A. Andrus. writing from this
place to the Sentinel, at Ashton, Illi-
nois, says: "The future of Austin is
sure to be great. The water we all pro-
nounced good, the soil fertile and
cheap, plenty of timber, and mild,
salubrious climate. The people, both
ladies and gentlemen, are equal to
those of the North in every respect.
The ladies cannot be excelled for beau
ty and refinement, and fine legal tall
ent is represented by the bar; hence,
If any person contemplates gong TO
Texas in the expectation of finding tho
people fools he had better remain at
home, as he will be sadly disappointed.
But to all persons desirous of finding
homes cheap and good in all respects,
not excelled anywhere from the Allan
tic on tho one hand to the Pacific on
the other, or from the great lakes on
the north to the Gulf OF Mexico on the
south, recommend them to go TO Tex

not be found; but, being human, they
have some bad persons among them

the law IS enforced and respected, and
crime punished as promptly as any
where. As the masses arc law-abid-
ing people, those going from the North
will be welcomed to this great State
with outstretched arms" Probably II
the writer OF the foregoing had re-
manned here a little longer he would
have given different account OF things.

THE capacity for progression is as in
finite as progress itself. Each day
teaches lessons in wisdom added to
those of preceding days. The sum of
these dddende of the ages constitutes,
one after another, the inventions and
discoveries in art and science and gov
ernment and morals which we have
seen hourly developed in our lifetime.
If mankind learn as much in the next
as in the past century the very millen-
mum will be inaugurated. In any
event, if it be true, as we had the hardi-
hood to assert again and again, that
the force which Newton called ''attrac-
ton of gravltationp is only peculiar
development of electrical force, then
it may result that we will learn how to
deal with graYitation as with electrici-
ty. We may finally discover how to
suspend its force, and men, like con-
dors of South American mountains
may yet outflY the winds and rise to
empyrean heights. Such discovery
of such laws of nature will strip spirit
ism of its chiefest wonder. Men will
make matter dance like things of life.
and volition, found TO be another spe-
cies of electric force still more refined,
will be directed, like lightning's shafts
from Mount Olympus, against objects
to be destroyed or uplifted, and "faIth"
will at last ''literslly remove noun
tains." Scientists now approve theo-
ries here defined and with vague shad-
ows of these we have now and then
amused our readers.

THEY are trying TO find means TO
drain the streets and alleys and sinks
of Dallas. In hot countries, like this,
where the sun shines SO fiercely through
nine months OF each year the evapora-
ton from the polluted soil, if the sur
face be not cleaRsed by drainage, is
productive of deadly feYers. The winds
that move about the streets of an un-
cleansed town at night are freighted
with malaria and disease, and death
turks IN the atmosphere by day and
night. Fifteen thousand people living
upon two square miles soon cover the
whole surface, if it be undrained, with
resking filth swept about by rains and
winds, and lifted up by evaporation
and invading bed--chambers and
breeding death and doctors bills.
Drainage is more valuable and
important than gaslights and next most
indispensable to perfect water supply,
without which drainage is impossible.
But when water has been supplied, the
first act of civilized municipal govern
ments is Its utilization in begetting
perfect cleanliness and perfect health
fulness. Then homes become healthful
and property desirable and valuable.
Money, as we'll as healthfulness and
exemption from doctors and drug bills,
are to be gained by perfect system of
drainage. Dallas is wise in Its govern
ment if it repel malarial fevers and
give Southern the summertime
healthfulness of a Northern city by
providing a thorough system of drain

A GROSS WRONG DONE THE
STATESMAN UNINTENTION.
ALLY, NO DOUBT.

Mr.. Thornton, the special local cor
respondent of Neios, and it seems of
the Houston Age, was wholly misled
when he stated in his dispatch of
Wednesday that the fatal difficulty be-
tween Mr.. Nalle and Msrkley had even
remote origin in anything that appeared
in the STATESMAN. When the wit
nesses in the case are examined, Mr..
Thornton will learn that Messrs. Plat,
Markley and Nalle all concurred in sp-
proving what the STATESMAN said,
and each of the three gentle
men was pleased to say this
when together in the STATES
MAN editorial room. Mr.. Platt
was inimical to Mr.. Markley and
would not sit near him or converse
with him, and Mr.. Nalle and Mr..
Narkley soon quarreled, but these diff
ferences had no reference whatever
to anything that bad appeared in the
newspaper. Mr.. Platt insisted earn
estly that the STATESMAN should pur-
sue the policy it had adopted
and so did Mr.. Nalle. Mr..
Markley was only opposed to the
proposition to erect another market
house, and in this the STATESMAN con-
CURED. In truth, these men had i'm
pugned each others motives, and surely
did not, as Col. swisher, Gilleland and
others will attest, condemn in any
thing the conduct of the newspaper.
There was never an unkInd word spo-
ken in connection with this matter by
either of these aldermen named to any
person connected with the STATES
Thornton should correct his
dispatch, which does the STATESMAN
great wrong, in making 1t even most
remotely responsible for so fearful
tragedy. The alteration was not in
reference to any publication ever made
In the STATESMAN, and In asserting
differently Mr.. Thornton does us in
Justice.

THE chief topic of controversy and
debate among local roughs just now
affects the relative value of knives and
pistols lin personal renconters. Many
strange reasons are assigned for the
preference of the knife, while the ger-
tie self-cocker and common repeating
pistols have many admirers. The boot
blacks espouse one and the other side
of the hideous, disgusting controversy,
and lessons it teaches may soon be
illustrated in some ghastly deed of
blood and horror. The bar-room and
street education of Austin youths is by
no means heavenly, and parents and
Sunday schools should exert them
selves as never before to inaugurate
reform.

IT is sad to reflect that the Cuero
Bulletin says nothing, in its last issue,
about the extension of the Indianola
road to Austin. 1t awaits patiently
the beginning of cur narrow gauge,
which will attract Commodore Morgan
hitherwardly by resistless force. The
people of Austin see the facts and
necessities of their condition at last,
and cunning agents of broad gauge
lines can no longer divert the people
from the purpose of starting the little
railway towards Ell Paso and Denver.
Col. Norton will be ready to begin his
task, even as the people are prepared
to act, at an early day.

Is THERE NO HIUNIFICENT BEN
RFACTOR FOR TEXAS?

The venerable philanthropist Petel
Cooper proposes to re-enact the role
of Vanderbilt in Tennessee by found
ing an university in South Carolins.
Why may not some millionaire enable
this commonwealth to utilize the en-.
dowment of the University of Texas Z
If million dollars were invested here
on the heights of University Place
and the university domain were re-
served till it may be leased ad-
vantageouslY, a greater boon would
be conferred upon greater number
and upon more Cosmopolitan people
than in either of the States blest by
the generosity of two citizens of New
York. If one conversant with the facts
would make known through the press
the extent of inconvertible resources
and riches the of University of Texas,
and tell of the scholastic population
and school fund and of the
charms of the spot dedicated
by the founders of the Re-
public as the site for grand Pan
theon and of lecture halls and for
building designed for a polytechnic
school-if all these facts were pre-
sented to men made enor-
mously rich by Federal power
through the past eighteen years
there would be found some Vanderbilt
or Cooper to build here a monument
to his fame and wisdom and generosi-
ty as enduring as the gratitude of Tex
as and the sons of Texas through count
less years and generations.

THE Hampstead Courier tells of q
fellow whose State and county tax
amounted to five cents, which he reso-
lutelY pnd. This reminds US that
those famous and wise and just law
givers, the Rutabagas, made such an
incident impossible. The famous Con

and saves till he acquires q little home,
to bear all the burdens of govern
ment, and when he pays his dollar
or i've dollar tax on his house and
little farm he finds poll tax Of So
staring him in the face. This, too, he
must pay because he has little house
