The New Party--Its Aim.

The Bryan Pilot says that
without some concert of action
on the part Of good citizens
Brazos county will be represen-
ted in the next legislature by a
wide-monthed, impudent and ig-
norant freedman.
We are sorry to say that an
effort is being made in this
county by the new party to
bring about a similar result.
The next Legislature will have
much and very important bus
mess to transact. 1t behooves
all good and respectable citizens
who have the interest of the
county at heart, and who desire
that we be properly represented
that good man go there. The
nominee of the Democracy Capt.
Williams, is the only man who
can beat the freedman put for
ward by the Republicans.
There is no earthly excuse for
putting a so-called independent
candidate in the field. The in
dependent has not even the
ghost of a chance of being cleo
ted and only strengthens the
Republican candidate by draw
ing off votes from the Democra-
cy. No Democrat or conser-
vative man who does not desire
this county to be misrepresen-
ted by negro should vote for
an independent for the legisla-
ture or any other office. Every
independent candidate in the
present county race is inimical
to the conservative element of
the county and is being run in
the interest of the republicans
whether he or his friends think
SO or not.

THE supreme court of appeals
Of Virginia hasjust decided on an
important case, establishing the
! social status of the negro in Vir-
ginia with respect to marriage.
It was held that a marriage be-
tween a negro and white woman
domiciled in the state, who went
to the District of Columbia and
were there married and return
ed to the state was a violation
of the statute law of Virginia,
which declares such marriage
could notbe pleaded in Grimm
al prosecution against such par
ties for lewd cohabitation. Such
marriages are an evasion Of the
state law and void. Such has
been the law of Virginia for
more than a century.

HOT SHOT.

Democrats, stick to- your
colors vote for the nominees
scratch not a single name.
= Democrats, if you wish to
protect your county finances,
see to it that competent board
of county commissioners are
elected.
Democrats, be not deceived
by the fair promises of Republi-
cans or Independents, but vote
solidly for the nominees; it is
our only salvation.
r. Hoffman is the Demo
cratic nominee for tax collector.
He is in every way competent
to fill the Office. He should,
therefore, receive heavy vote.
- Democrats, do not suffer
yourselves to be led astray by
the alluring bats held out by
Republicans or Independents,
but vote the straight ticket and
the victory is ours.
- 1t is charged that Billings
lea was brought::out by Repub-
licans to defeat c. {. Lockett,
the Democratic nominee for
county attorney; therefore let no
Democrat stultify himself by
voting for Billingslea.
The name of w. H. Bill
lingslea appears as the nominee
of the Republican party of this
county, in the manifesto recent
ly issued by the colored people,
therefore he cannot expect any
Democrat to vote for him.
Mr.. Rudolph Krug, for over
thirty years an honored citizen
of this county, is the Democra-
tic nominee for District clerk,
and will receive the solid sup
port, not only Of the Demo-
cracy, but of the German voters
of our county.
Capt. A. H. Adams. of
Burleson county, is the Demo-
cratic nominee for floating re-
preventative from Washington
and Burleson..counties. His OPP
ponent is a colored man, notori-
osly incompetent for the posi-
ton. Every white man should
therefore sustain Adams.

john WESLEY HARDIN, while
in Comanche to receive his SEN
ence, wrote a letter to the Com
anche Chaet, in which he says
that he was under the impress
sion during and after his trial,
that Judge Fleming had ruled
on the same in a biased sense !;
but upon dispassionate refiec-
ton, and the light thrown on the
rulings by the learned opinion
of Judge White, of the court of
Appeals, heis convinced that he
was wrong and bows III humble
submission to the decree of the
court.

The prosperity of the public
school system in Houston is
materially interfering with the
private schools and materially
reducing their attendance, while
that of the public schools is
constantly increasing. The high
school has an enrolment of 70
pupils.s Such. has been the
case with all private schools in
every town and city where a
thorough and efficient system
of graded public schools are in
operation. This fact alone de-
monstrates the utility and wis
dom of the public school sys-
tenn.

FINANCIAL FALSEHooDS

PoMERoY's papers and the
New York Ad0Oeate are filled
weekly with systematic and
barefaced falsehoods regarding
financial facts. The Austin
Statesman gives the following:
In the Ad0ocatr of Sept. 18th
is a statement pretending to
show the paper currency in cir
culation 1865, sI,o5I. 2S2,537;
per capita s47.42; 1866, ST, sos
7o2,7 2o; per capita 5000; in
1867 the per capita wasreduced
to ss6.6S and in 1868 to s22.oS
The report of the comptroller
4 of the currency published in
1877 gives the circulation in
1865 as s635,7I9,266 in 1866
s75o,S2o,22S in 1867, s7oo,o76,-
500 and in 1868 s6Se,S66,11o.
The per capita was in 1865,
$500, in 1866 sIo.e5, in 1867
sIo.I4, and in 1868 sIS.36. 1t
will thus be seen that the green
back papers have not told the
truth by about from one hundred
and twenty to two hundred and
fifty per cent. which is about as
near the truth as it suits their
special purpose to tell.
In, 1877 as shown by the
highest authority of the govern
ment there was paper currency
in circulation to the amount of
soS9,oIS,57S or a capita of sI4.-
40. The gold reserve in the
treasury as also the gold in the
banks, and among the people
gives per capita of over $40.
The gold is very carefully boar
ded away under dread Of repu-
diation.
A great many people, without
a moments consideration, jump
at conclusions, taking the words
of hap-hazard speakers and the
reckless assertions of such pa
pers as Pomerov's and the Id
0oeate. The latter paper is
published at IS cents year and
has but little advertising patro-
mage. The subscription price
is not sufficient to pay for one
half of the blank paper used.
There is a huge bug under the
chip. Newspapers are notpub-
lished very long at a loss.
Every printer i'll the United
States knows the Advocate loses
at least Is cent year on every
copy of its circulation. 1t is
run for political purposes and
by political party that has
plenty of money to accomplish
its purpose. The greenback-
labor party claims to be poor
mans party; poor men cannot
afford to spend millions in a
newspaper. <rhe reasonable in
ference is that, the republican
party is having this greenback
paper run in its interest for the
purpose ofdisrupting the Demo
cracy as a national party.

POLITICAL LIES.

POLITICAL LIES.
The Greenbackcrs and other
croakers have been in the habit
of claiming, for political pur-
poses, that because of the2hasd-
times at least soo,o9p ps1IeI
were out of employ1
State of Massaeh
commission ON
tics investis
are unemf Ind perhaps
IS per cent. these have NO
disposition to work. Carefully
prepared estimates, from reliable
sources, do not place the entire
number of unemployed persons
in the whole United States at
more than 100000 or 100000.
Yet the average Greenback
speaker will mount the stump
and unblushingly assert that
want and squalor stalk over the
land, and that the number of
persons out of employment is
two or three million, and per-
haps more, depending upon
the gullibility of his audience.
The writer of this, asked 4
Greenbacker, who is, or was,
an officer in the G. B. club, how
many persons he supposed were
now unemployed in the whole
United States, he promptly re-
piled, Between four and five
million" The entire popular
vote of the United States is but
about FIVE million; so that ac-
cording to this mans hap-hazard
estimate, nearly the entire voting
population of the United States
is in the enjoyment of enforced
idleness. The average Green
hacker derives his information
from Pomeroy's and other
papers, which have not the
slightest regard for the truth.
The truth is, that of the men
actually out of work, a consider
able portion would not work if
they had a chance. That the
country generally is in a pros
porous condition is proved con-
clusively by the consumption of
sugar and coffee. These are
two articles that can be dis
pensed with, but they are uni
versally used. The reports of
the various custom houses show
that the imports of coffee, for the
past year or two, have been fully
as large, if not larger, than at
any previous time in the history
of the country. The use of
coffee is general, and the guam
tity consumed is a pretty fair
indication of the condition of
the people.
Absolute money Is an abso-
solute myth; if the average
Greenbacker, who IS now spend
ing his time waiting for it to
come, would go to work and
stick to it, the probability is that
his labor would be rewarded.
Money cannot be had without
labor, and those who arc trying
the scheme will find it out in
due time.

STATE LEGISLATION.

The people of Texas, taken
as whole, are now in as pros
porous condition as they have
,aEey been in at any previous
> u the history of the State.
ee of this fact. the peo-
]. fe-be infatuated with
p of the national f.
fry party and every
-" sR,tolv.a -hnancier; a
nc farm hand working for
month, 4 negro cotton
? Eer making a ST or So a day,
aG-boy or any other man is
now Aepared with either facts,
figures or a theory of his own
by which the national financial
question can be easily and speed
ly adjusted; any one of them
can fix things up as easy as fall
ling off a log. This apparently
uuseless discussion is absorbing
the entire attention of the peo-
pie and taking up most of the
time of the speakers who are
now convassing the State in be-
half of their several tickets. I'm
der the new constitution the
multiplicity of courts has been
almost SIS great curse to our
people as were the tocusts to
the Egyptians of old. One term
of court is hardly finished be-
fore another term of court is
began and so it goes on from
the beginning to the end of the
year and nothing is accomplish
ed by them. 1t is an indispute-
apple fact that the judiciary ,sys-
TEN needs amendment, as well
as the criminal code in respect
to minor offences, such as petty
thefts and misdemeanors. The
jails are kept full of prisoners at
an enormous expense to the
public, when by a summary
trial they could and should be
disposed of by the justices
courts. The whipping post
would be a..desireable appendage
to our criminal law. The smoke
house tax is to be discussed,
railroad tariffs are to be regula-
ted, the revenue laws of the
State are to be revised; many
old laws are to be amended and
new ones enacted, but it seems
that a discussion of all these
vital subjects is completely
thrown aside in the all-absorb-
ing finance question. These
are matters that bear directly
upon our finances at home.

Immediately after it was known

of Finklea, at Hampstead, had
escaped, the general opinion
was that he had fed the country.

have a talk with him. Crawford
has not been re-arrested.
