Our Tenure of Life

Depends in great measure upon our regard for
or neglect Of the laws of health. If we violate
them we cannot expect to '.make old bones"
But that the span of existence allotted to
naturally delicate constitution, or one which
has been shaken by disease may be material
ly enlightened, is fact of which we have dali
ly proof. The yivifying and restorative iniu
ence of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters upon a
failing physique affords striking illustration
of the power of judicious medication to
strengthen the hold on life. Restored diges-
ton, complete assimilation, renewed appetite
sound repose, these are among the benefits
conferred upon the deblitated by that su-
preme renovant. With a circulation enriched,
frame invigorated, and a nervous system
tranquilized, the invalid, after a course Of
the Bitters, feels that his life-tenure is no
longer the precarious thing that it was-that
he may yet enjoy "green old age.''

The Gainesville Rcefstey,

The Gainesville Register, a
sound conservative democratic
paper says there is no use at
tempting to conceal the fact
that there is to-day more dis
satisfaction IN the ranks of the
democratic party in Texas than
at any time since its accession
to power in 1873. While the
party is as large as it ever was
it has made some sad blunders
in the election of men to office,
notably to the legislature and
the present head of the state
administration. 1t is not how
ever too late TO mend, the REM
edy is in the party and not out
of it. Let the next state admin
strattion be composed of live
progressive men and with an
energetic legislature ofthe same
kind dissatisfaction in the ranks
will disappear and the progress
of the state will be onward and
upward.

Pecos and Preside counties in
the interest of the company
which owns about a million and
a half acres Of land in that sec
ton: Specimens of mineral
were brought back which assay
over 225 ounces Of silver TO the
ton. The mineral deposits are
located about forty miles from
Fort Davis. Col. Andrews of
the railroad company has or
dercd a crushcr and viii ship it

Of making practical expert

prove to be as valuable as it is

4 TRIVIAL CAUSE.

! The editor of the Paris B6u-
ne', J. J. Wheeler, was shot and
killed in that city the other day
day. Some time ago the city
council ordered stray dogs kill
ed. Tom Clark policeman, was
execntioner and it seems was
over jealous, killing dogs on
their owners premises and firing
at them promisccuously on tire
streets much to the danger and
annoyance Of quiet citizens.
Charges were preferred against
the dog-slayer before the city
council; the council sustained
the dog-slayer. BY some means
Mr.. Wheeler of the Banner
took a part in the controversy
and published some very severe
structures on the action of the
council in sustaining Clark and
at the same time expressed his
opinion of Clark's actions, as an
officer, in very strong terms.
MIR. Bonner, an attorney, had
defended Clark and a quarrel
ensued between Wheeler and
Bonner, in which incorporate
language was INDUCED in.
Wheeler it is said threatened
Bonncr's life. They met and
the result is known. We do
not know anything of the merits
of the case, Bonntr may have
been justi6able in killing Wheel
er, or he may not-the courts
will determine this One thing,
however is certain, and that is,
the killing of Wheeler grew out
OF the carelessaess ofpoliccman
Tom Clark in killing dogs on
their owners premises. The
most serious results sometimes
grow out of the most trivial
circumstances.

men interested in mining ex-

orc gathered from the center OF

if you won't open a way to
those mines for US we shall
open one ourselves" The Sc
quel is known and the Indians
will be severely punished for
the Inscriptions acts OF white
men.

IN New York and Ohio the
grecnbacker although compare
lively few in number, held the
balance Of power, but instead
of utilizing it by joining with
the democrats and defeating
the republicans, they chose to
run an independent ticket OF
their own, a ticket that every
man who voted, knew full well
had no show of winning. The
consequence was republican
victories when the republicans
were considerably in the min
ority. Greenback tickets are
evidently run in the interest of
and for the purpose of electing
the republican tickets. This
is the only reasonable assump-
ton.

There are fools in the North
as well as in the South, but in
neither section do they consti-
tute the people, any more than
one swallow makes a summer.
They are only mischievous agri-
tators for some selfish or base
ends of their own, and it would
be a happy thing for the whole
country. if they could be all
gathered together and cast into
the sea. They may as we'll
make up their minds that they
will amount to nothing, or very
little, in the next Presidential
contest. The sensible people
of the whole country now fer
vently desire peace, harmony,
and rest, and they mean to have
them. The reviving business
interests Of the land demand re-
pose. The labor of this end Of
the Union finds its best market
in the South and the staples of
the latter section equally need
the market here. Hearty inter
course and fratcrnal relations
commercially are the highest
necessity OF both, and the pol;t-
ical party that sets itself against
that condition of affairs will be
