WHY may not Dan Voorhees, be in
duced to speak at Austin2 Gen. Wash
Cumberland Gap) Morgan, of Ohio,
said some time ago in private letter
that he was coming to Texas. He is a
State pensioner and boasts of it t-proud
as he is that he served when boy in
the Texas revolution. Would not
Gen. Morgan be present at the ap-
preaching Capital State Fairs He
would see the prettiest spot
on the continent, the fair grounds at
Austin, and could probably be in
duced to give US straight Democratic
speech, in which he would do honor
to truth and craftsmanship north ol
the Ohio. Let US have Voorhees, and
Morgan visit Texas. It's pity if the
North can only send us such people as
Kesrney, Brick Pomeroy and the
Woodruff, and now and then table
hitting bamboozler of Western inno
cence.

ANOTHER SAD LESSON FOR OUR

who haYe not visited the city since the

intercourse with dwellers in Memphis,
are smitten as fiercely and fatally as
those having homes along the polluted

THE meanest pittances are paid to

TIE Marshall Herald, though pub
lished in the negro-ruled county OF
Harrison, has the hardihood to say
that 'sthe counties of Texas overrun
by large negro population are in de-
plorable condition. The worst Of it IL,
the whites take no interest in politics,
and make no concerted effort for re-
lief. An exchange says the last term
of the district court in Washington
county cost the taxpayers Of said coun
ty $4,000, and there were only three
felony convictions, leaving thirteen
charged with felony to remain in Jail
at the expense Of the county until next
January. There must be some remedy
provided for such evils"

GOVERNOR HUBBARD has to appoint

THE Morgan steamer about which the
trouble arises between Galveston and
Houston does not propose to touch at
Galveston, but would simply pass some
three miles east of the city up the ship
channel towards Houston. Houston
claims that the action of Galveston Is
an interference in matter which does
not or ought not to come under its
quarantine. In the meantime Calves
ton allows q Mallory steamer that has
touched at Key West to come up
to Galveston and unload, and therefore
Houston is determined that there shall
be no discrimination. It would at least
not permit Galveston to exercise quar-
antine powers in its behalf. Whether
Houston would permit Morgan's steam
er to land is not known, but it will
submit to no special tyranny on the
part Of Galveston. In the kilograms
we get only the Galveston view of the
matter.
