Cost OF THE Zulu WAR.-Small
wonder that. England's Zulu war is
popular in Natall Already the war
has cost $35, 900, 900, and the expcndi-
turc for military purposes is at the rate
OF more than S5,00O,000 month, or
more than Sloo minute. The rate
of transportation from Durham to
neutrality-suspicious. milcs-is
five cents pound, which is regarded
as too much by four-titths; being seven
times as much as it costs to send freight
hom London to Port Natal, distance
OF 1000 miles. Not until the new
grass springs up in October can an ad-
vance be made, and it will be ncces-
sary to have five months supplies in
the advanced depots, SO that Sir Gar
net Wolseley's estimate that the war
would cost at least 3l00,O00,O0O, and
probably $l50,000> 900, is quite likely
to prove correct.

WHAT "BooM" MEANs.-Thc cur
rent word to express a peculiar and
frequent phcnomc,ion in American
politics Is '''booln." It is derived from
the Western idiom describing the
frcshets in rivers and creeks. liz those
streams that are far from the stable
equilibrium of tidal waters there arc
very great inequalities Of volume.
Some Of them vary from six inches of
dust in a dry time to sixty feet Of

their times When the usually thin and

travellers delayed at tho fords. The
stream is powerful while it lasts, but
that is only for day or two, and
while it is at its height of temporary
greatness it is called "boom." "IIost

The weekly democratic statesman. [volume] (Austin, Tex.) 1871-1883, 1879-10-30


A GREENBACK organs tell us that
Solon Chase, a queer old coon from
Maine, aud rollicking fellow from
Iowa-both tremendous Greenbackers
are "w.ping out the shotgun pol
icy" in Mississippi. The paper making
this declaration is printed here in
Texas. 1t states that the "decent
people of moE-rldden Mississippi are
disgusted with the shotgun policy
adopted by the so-cslled Democracy"
We were not aware, until informed of
the fact by this Southern publication,
that the shotgun policy of governing
elections was fact in Mississippi poll
tics. We had innocently supposed
that Mr.. BarksdAle, a candidate for
the United States Senate, and mod
eat editor IN Mississippi, now making
speeches everywhere that he may at
tain the position, fold the truth about
the Barksdale-Y killing, and that
the jury in the Gully-Chisholm affair
rendered an honest verdict. We do
know that Chisholm was such diIty
dog that he was not suffered to enter a
gentleman's house in village near that
in which he fell, and yet the manager
of the freedmen's bureau and other
Federal officers were its inmates. We
are not surprised, however, to see a
Greenback newspaper cooperating
with Radical politicians and denomi-
mating Mississippi mob-ridden State
when Mr.. Blrksdale, the ClariOn's edI-
tor, and the chosen, preferred friend
of Jefferson Davis, travels days and
weeks making speeches conformed to
the creed and theories and predilec-
tions of Mr.. Davie, and at this self
same hour Solon Chase, the arrant,
gaseous old humbug and fsnatical fiat
money balloonist from Maine, and
the succulent, juicy Mr.. Weaver of
Iowa, in perfect security to wind,
limb and muscle, make roaring, rous-
ing speechs everywhere in Mississippi.
The shotgun policy is not dominant
there. If it were could Solon Chase
an original sbolitioniat make speeches
and live even, in the old town in which
Jefferson Davis wss wont to dwell and
issue edicts to his party. Surely there
never was broader latitude given than
when Solon Chase is suffered to infuse
his down east philosophy and codes OF
morals and of financial thinking into
the so-called shotgun Democracy.
There is some mistake about it and the
paper should correct errcTs into which
it has fallen.

BERNARD MALLoN, who died few
days ago at Huntsville, in this State,
he'd recently perfected the school sys-
ten o. Atlantis, Georgia, a city he had
served since 1872. He had organized
the Teachers Association of Georgia
and perfected the schools, not only of
Atlanta, but those of Savannah. He
was kind and generous and gentle even
as he was distinguished for hfmness,
truthfulness and decision of character.
Not only by intellectual attsinments,
but by peculiar moral qualities, was he
eminently well fitted for the successful
creation and management of systems Of
schools. He had just completed the or
ganIzation of the State normal institu-
ton at Huntsville when the sad intellI-
gence of his heath, as announced We'd
nesday, reached Governor Roberts. His
ExceIlency and the Board of Education,
as shown in another place, confess in
official resolutions the great loss sus-
tanned by the-cause Of popular educa-
tion in the death of this distinguished
teacher. His remains were forwarded
to his home in Cincinnati for inter-
ment.

THE STATE FAIR AND TYNAS
RAILROADS.

1t is stated that visitors to the 81.
Louis Fair left s., 900, 900 in that city.
Fairs deserve, therefore, the active
maintenance of towns and cities In
which they &re held. But however
much money is left in town or city
by fair its profits are less than those
of the country. People of diverse oc-
cupations are brought in contact with
one another and exchange facts and
opinions. Each observant farmer dis
covers the discoveries of his neigh
bors. Modes of cultivation of differ
ent and of new crops are learned with the
value OF newly devised agricultural
machinery. The value of improved
breeds of horses and cattle and of
grasses and vegetables is ascertained.
Marketmen see the best products of
gardens and farmers, and learn how to
obtain the best seeds for spring and
best crops for summer and autumn. 1t
is cheap, free school for grown up
children, which costs the State and
Taxpayers, as such, not penny. Wise
managers of railroads discovering the
value of these institutions to the
country, increasing its productiveness,
through which their lines run, do
everything possible to induce the
whole population of the country
to attend these fairs, and rates
of travel are reduced nearly
one-half, and neither the Central
nor the International road charges
ought for the transportation of the pro-
ducts Of art or industry tn the Capital
State FAIR. People are IN the habit of
abusing railways; sus these of Texas
hardly deserve it, and V2ry certainly
this city, its merchants and property-
holders, should be 10th to find fault
with two great corporations which deal
thus generously with the people and
with institutions maintained in promo
tion of popular progress aud popular
intelligence.

WHAT THEY SAY OF US AND
HOW WE ARE RUINED BY 1T.

Il may be of infinite service to politi-
clans and people to know what our
enemies say of US and why immigra-
tion, except of the most intelligent
Northern and European people into
the South has been suspended. Ever
since the party-leaders in Washington
renewed the sectional conflict, ever
since Potter and Randall presented and
Conkling, Blaine and Garfield accepted
the issue, the Republican press of the
North has devoted itself to the brutal
business of misrepresentiug and Witty
ing US. 1t has cost these Southern
States countless millions of money.
We. would spurn these lies and this
contumely if there resulted no infinite
practical evils. Not only do the great
Northern publications, from which we
quote, control absolutely public opin-
Ion of the North, but, on this subject,
all civilized nations. The Gully
Chisholm diabohsm Is q household
story recited by every 6reside in clvili-
zed Europe. 1t is pictured on canvass
and in chromos, carved in marble, en-
graved in books and printed in every
newspaper in the world we inhablt.
We may deplore it and resent the
accursed injustice of ascribing to the
whole people of the South, moral
characteristics that now and then beget
such infamies, but when the great
newspapers of our own country have
been induced by party managers to
make such facts pivotal in the struggle
for political power, there is no remedy.
Because of the character given South
ern population by the press, the worst
elements Of NoIthern society are at
tracted and the best repelled and
bloody deeds done by this class
are again ascfibed to Southern civili-
xatiou, and thus the evil reproduces
itself until it is meassrcless. Defeat
in partisan conflicts. as consequence
of the reprod action of the sectional
issues in Congress, signifies compare.
lively nothing.
The prize prOffered for our urowniegrs'
dation and rum is the political mastery
OF Amenca, and yet no statesman o
the South, except probably 'Mr
Alexander b. Stephens, has sough
persistensly TO avert these meal
