Judge Williams, Of Galveston, is strong
anti-Roberts man. In the recent convention
there, Judge Williams said: The vote of
this state is to be cast upon the question as to
whether 0. M. Roberts is a good governor or
not. In my opinion he is not good gov
ernor. Loud applause, When my friends
that selected me at the primary meeting to
come here, desired an expression of the views
that would entertain when | came here,
l declined to express my views, saying
to them; "lf you do not know me do
not send me, and if you do know me, do send
me-" Well, am here right now with all
that charter of the feelings of that primary
meeting and it would be, to my mild, to
my Judgment, simple fraud for this con-
vention to indorse Governor Roberts. rap
plause. Who ought to be your governor
know not but do know that you need some
governor. In my honest conviction you
have never found him, and from present ap-
pearances, you are not likely to catch him
Immediately. Applause. If the delegates
here, aud all they represent, have a seintilla
ofsense and respect for themselves, they will
recognize the fact that the great state of
Texas now stands asking vaguely, and almost
despairingly, for relief from its pres
emit governor. Tell me the people are
satisfied with him No, sir; they are not
satisfied. They are not satisfied with
the nastiness that he has had put
upon the statute books, such as the Sunday
law, the bell punch law, occupation taxes,
the bars to immigration; and, above all, the
denial of an efficient system of education.
Tell me that the people are satisfied No; no
man can convince me of it. For myself, ask
of the Democratic party, when they 90 to
Dallas, to say to the people of Texas; Citizens
of this great commonwealth, we are against
Roberts; we are against any power and any
system of legislation that gives us Sunday
law; that gives us occupation tax; that repels
immigration; that places a premium upon
ignorance and crime BY denying the rising
generation an efficient system Of public free
schools

EAsTLAND, July 23, 1880.
Governor Roberts has issued a special
proclamation declaring Eastand as being no
longer a frontier county, and that the pistol
law should be enforced in sixty days from
the date of the proclamation.---The popu-
lation of Eastland county, according to the
last census, toets up 5000. Our county has
greater population than any of those sur
rounding it except Comanche and Erath.-
Shackeford county has population of 1000
and Stephens 1900. Thus we see that our
county has more than doubled its population
in the last two years and still Increases in
wealth and prosperity. county has
population of five hundred.-The excite
ment and enthusiasm stirred up among our
citizens by the entrance of the railroad has
now completely died out, and now they are
bringing divers and sundry suits against
the company on account of dis
agreement in regard to tho right-of
way.-A-Gould City is tho name of
the latest venture in RAILROAD town" 1t

town (if town it may BIO oalled) west of here
on the line of the Pacific. 1t is some thirty
miles distant from this place. If there's
anything in name Gould City will be a
prosperous little berg.-The grading on
the railroad is almost completed from this
place to where the tracklayers are, on the
west bank of the Brazos.---The special
commissioners appointed by the county
Judge to appraise the value Of lands over
which the RAILROAD runs, and about which
the owners and company fail to agree, are in
session this week. Their decisions SO far as
they have taken action have given entire set

The Grist Tax Of ItaIy.

The endurance of the people of Italy and
their patience under the burthen of peculiar
ly oppressive taxation has been perhaps as
severely tested by the "grist tax" as it would
be safe to try any civilized population by.
This excise duty has latterly yielded 100000
900 lire, or, say Sl9,OoO,OO0 year. 1t
amounts to q tax of about 80 cents a head
and rests emphatically upon the poorest
classes. 1t is tax which the millers are
compelled to collect upon the grain brought
to their mills for grinding, and, as the poorer
classes in Italy Enthusiastically live upon
farinaceous food and very seldom use meat

northern part of the peninsula the cheit diet
of the people is polenta or corn-meal por.

of food. The grist tax touches both of these
Indispensable of Diet, and touches them SO
severely that it is SAID to have promoted a
disease which has become national with the
Italians. This is pellagra, disorder closely
related to leprosy, and which is greatly on
the increase. Its cause is claimed to be very
nearly connected with the wretcbed food Of
the peasantry, and in some parts of the coun-
try the hospitals and almshouses are not able
to accommodate the increasing number ofcases
ofthis specific indigenous malady. The Ital-
ian parliament, after great and long-con-
tinued pressure, has consented to remit one

Of September next ensuing, and the entire
tax is to be abandoned on January /, 1884.
When it is considered that the Italian army
costs every year more than the grist tax
yields, and that the new kingdom has been
spending some 100000 or SS.000,000 a
year in the construction Of iron-clsd steamers.
Inc patience and loyalty of the Italian people
will begin to be appreciated.

WHITNEY, July %, 1850.
The voters of Whitney, by majority of

upon him he will accept--Our town is
steadily improving. and the outlook for a
large trade here this fall is very fattering.
1t the cotton crop turns out as well as the
farmers expect, Whitney will ship 10000
bales. --Justice Elders court is in session.

yesterday. Among others was case against

The Augusta (Ga.) Constitutionalist says
The immediate prospect of the cotton crop
is fine, Notwithstanding the summer drouth.
A larger acreage has been planted, with its
fertility stimulated by an extensive use OF
commercial fertilizers. Last season the money
left the southern planter from moving his
cotton crop Appropriated S2500O0,000, or
nearly 100000 900 in excess of the crops of 1878
and 1879. This year 1t may be greater, and
this prosperity will be enhanced by the fact
that the planter is getting to be far more in
dependent than before. Our industries are
springing up in strength and usefulness our
mineral resources are being developed, and
our railroad facilities for transportation and
exchanging commodities west and north are
growing finer every day. The new south
will eclipse the old regime in splendor and
solidity."
