and stood on their legal rights. When dis
turbance occurs In public school now the
teacher has no other recourse left than TO
turn the pupils out Of school; dares not touch
them under penalty Of criminal prosecu-
ton. The natural result follows that the pub
lie schools OF Wisconsin are more rotous than
a Communist meeting, and holidays come
tS,.alf dozen times a week.

There ID perhaps no better illustration Of the
1lsorganizatdon of politics. the unrepubliean
character OF our institutions to-day, than this
warm support of large standing army by
Democratic papers.
On this subject, the constitutions Of ma

and unequivocal language, Pennsylvania,
North Carolina and Vermont all declared in
their constitutions: "As standing armies in
times Of peace are dangerous 30 liberty they
ought not to be kept mp" Virginia, Mary

States In regard to the army, To-day Penn

The demonstrations that the Communists
or Socialists are making in this country and
Germany have aroused an interest in the his.
tory of the organization. In both these
countries Communism is of recent growth,
having attained its present proportions only
within the last decade.
The starting point of Communism was in
London in 1883, when an international COM
blnation was organized by "a number of Ger
man workingmen who had been expelled from
France for taking part in an eaaesrte in Paris.
III iSz7 the lirst Communistic conference was
held in Germany, when manifesto was
issued by DR. Karl Marx, one Of the leaders
of che Communists, which manifesto has
been often inacrsed, and serves even to this

day as q platform FOR the party. rhe main
idea OF this manifesto was the organization
and union Of the laborinR classes for the puf-
pose OF ovetthrowlng the rule of The capt.
talists by the acquisition OF political power.
II was only in 1862 however, just sixteen
years ago, that the Internationale proper Yves
formed, composed principally or English and
French workingmen brought together by the
exhibition Of that year In London. Ten years
afterward the society counted 10000 MEM
bers In England alone. and not less than
2,50U,oOO In Europe
In 1868, the first general congress OF the
organization was held at Geneva, In switzer-
land. At this congress Il was resolved TO
organize the society In the United States, and
delegates were accordingly sent over here for
that purpose. In 1867 two lodges were or
ganized, one in Chicago and the other Ia New
York both Of which recognized the supremacy
Of the foreign international Society. In 1871.
when there were ten sections IN the United
States, labor congress was held at ST. Louis
10 discuss the laws that should govern trade
organizations. A platform was then adopted.
favOfing naturalization OF power In Federal
government, restrictions upon private enter

railroads, telegraph lines and the like.
The next congress Of the order was held at
Columbus, Ohio; and In 1873, at Cleveland.
The organization increased each year, and In
1877, when the grand strike broke out, there
were no less than eighty-four sections OF the
order In the United States and $4,000 men,
bers.
1t is scarcely necessary 10 relate the history
Of the Communist party since then; every
body knows, as early as 1872 the Communists,
or Labor party, az they sometimes called
themselves, came out In favor Of greenback
currency. The result was union between
the Workingmen and Greenbackers into
party styling itself National"
Originally secret organization. the order
has now really become political party within
the past two years, and enters the field as

Ii has always seemed strange that country

autionA as France, should have escaped almost
ell trouble from labor strikes. The

escaped cOmfnunes, barrlcades and rlsings of
the people, but strikes Ia these countries have
attained gigantic proportions, have degener-

BURLESoN COUNTY.
Il $4,000 Robbery.

On last Thursday night some
robber or robbers entered the
house of Mr.. Dick Pillow, who
lives near Lyons store, Blrle-
son county, and robbed him of
$1,000. Mr.. Pillow is one of
the pioneers of Texas and had
his money in an old fashioned
chest which he kept near his
bed. 1t consisted of about ST.
900 in gold, and about the same
amount in silver, comprising the
entire savings of a long life. 1t
is thought that the robbers
chloroformed Mr.. Pillow. The
chest was carried out and
broken open some distance
from the house. There was
a number of horses tracks
iii the vicinity, thus making it
plain that the robbers carried
off their booty on horseback.

Miseellaneous Jo...ngs.

Early on Friday morning the sth inst.,
we took passage on the mail hack from In
dependence to spend our holiday. our OBJ
jective point being Spring Hill, where
there was to be Sunday school picnic.
For some three miles our vehicle pulled
heavily through the mud. (for ii has been
raining over here nearly every day for the
past two weeks when we struck dry ground
and made good time until we reached
Brenham. After short delay, We stepped
aboard the western bound train, and in
short time the polite and ohliging conductor
stopped and put US off al the picnic ground,
where we found quite number of Sunday
school scholars and Others assembled.
The audience had Just been entertained by
an address, width which they seemed well
pleased, by Mr.. Harris. Your corrcspon-
dent thea made them 4 little talk; after
which table cloths of snowy whiteness were
spread upon the grass and were literally
covered with subsiantials and delicac,es suit
able for the occasion After dinner was
over and the fragments had been gathered
up, it was announced that there were few
candidates present who were willing to
speak. c. c. Lockett was introduced, and
made a short speech, which made favor
able impression upon the audience. We
liked the honesty and urbanity which char
acterizcd his speech. About this time, the
muttcring thunder warned US that it was
time to seek shelter, which abruptly tcrmi
mated the festivities OF the occasion.
Wefound a shadow of gloom resting upon
the community in which Ewes the father OF
the unfortunate Kinney Krug, who, with his
wife and two sisters, had just been buried
in one grave. They were much beloved BY
all who knew them. 1t is feared the father
will hardly survive the shock.
On our return, we called at the BANNER
Office, where We found all hands busy; one
of the editors writing up items, the. other
sweating over a lot ofjob work. lfpeople
think editors have an easy time, they, had
better step into their sanctum few min
utes and disabusc their minds And, when
men are working SO hard, and have been
for years, as the editors of the Brenhain
BANNER to build up home enterprise, We
think they most justly deserve the encour-
agement and patronage of The people for
whom they labor.
We find, in por,ions of the county, they
have scarcely had rain enough, while in
other portions,,it has been excessive We
suppose there is now ripcning in the fields,
the heavies, crop of com ever raised in this
county; and, perhaps. the fines, prospect
for cotton. l. l. ].
