Mr.. Watterson continues to ham
ner away at his party, hop ng doubt
less to weary it into well doing. He
reminds it every day that it must not
be deceived by the la'e elections and
imagine that they indicate sudden
growth OF confidence in the Democ-
racy. What he wants the party to
do is to prove, now that that it has
the opportunity, that it has the ca
pacity to govern, and he marks out
list of reforms and measures that
must be acted upon in order to
demonstrate its capabihty. After
showing how much the party has at
stake and how easy it will be for it
to make fool of i,self, he concludes
that "the Democratic party has ex
hausted it's capacity to blunder. 1t
has served out it's apprenticeship to
misfortune and error. It will diss
appoint it's critics, and, while it can
not keep its fools mouths shut, it

DIVORCE BY KILLING.

In the states north and west, where marry
ing is the rule. insanity, as a departure from
the society Of good morals and the control of
passional restraints, is recognized. AS a plea
against wife-murder it seldom falls short of a
good defense, and we sorrow over the failure
to set it up to sustain the claim for divorce
where marriage has done its work. All is
fast and loose. Long ago, when young men
had trades and occupations and lived in plain
two story houses, paid their debts and made
the two ends meet at Christmas, cases of in
sanity did not run into marriage, but were
confined to insolvents who had nerve to en-
counter creditors, and young women momcn-
tally unmindful of the holiness of chastity,
who were abashed into lunacy from a reviving
sense of shame now mostly obsolete. Brown
stone fronts, free-love, woman's rights,
fifteen thousand dollars Of annual wants
linked to supplies depending on ad-
venture, forgetfulness of natural and
contempt for social ties in these latter days
run insanity into license and present, as the
great demand of the age, some feasible plan
by which society may reduce its insane Stats
tics.
While marriage endures men will kill their
wives. The imperfect married man, FESTIVE
and undeveloped is impatient of divorce. But
it is chiefly in Northern sections that the muir
der remedy is applied with safety and every
reliance felt on the plea Of new departure from
perfect order in the mental house. Wife Kill
ling is done with the best Intentions and with.
out the design of putting the commonwealth to
costs. The proofs by which the perilous stuff
of a mind diseased is detected are some
, times startling. In recent case ii
was shown that a wite-murderer was
; seen to sharpen knife, which he had never
mony disclosed that innocent mans history.
1t was held that this proceeding was conclusive
proof Of insanity, because no man Of sound
mind would sharpen knife which he had no
rational use for. The justice of that ruling
was confirmed when it appeared that this very
knife was the instrument by which the killing
was done. 1t is not singular that an enlight.
ened Jury, anxious to establish a settled pre-
cedent in vicinity where any conjugal ties,
lasting six months, are regarded as an limo.
walton of woman's rights, were convinced OF
the utter absence of all felonious intent in this
case and found the accused not guilty.
1t seems obvious to US that if northern and
western people were in worse circumstances
and had better morals, if they played less
whether with dice, or stocks, or wonderland
worked more; If the ambition of being snowy
and the Incidence of being idle, were regarded
as incipient lunacy by the mental authority in
control, there would be large curtailment in
the lists of insanity and the new departure
would result in prompt and happy return.
We think such consequence may be awaited
when the north and west discern TO what good
purpose the south was chastened by the war,
and begin to educate themselves up to the
southern standard Of moral and social reform.

A FAILURE to agree at the Guiteau hial
will be but one remove from calamity. The
national temper will not accept failure to
convict. I, is the stiffness before the storm.
Nothing could exceed the accomplishing
patience with which the nation has borne the
slow and tiresome drag of the Guiteau cause.
But it will demand result. That SO terrible
crime as this assassin's should yet defy the
judicial power and mock at justice is not to be
endured and will not. If the court fails to
Convict it will encounter public scorn. The
cry for the assassin's blood will stir the ma
tional heart to its depths. 1t will not be de-
MED. A further federation of the crime would
be the peoples shame. This mans IMMUNITY
makes the scafold growing jest.

AN INDEPENDENT YEAR.

This shall be year of political indePend-
ence to Texas. The democratic political
machine is the only one now in motion; the
republicans are anxious to join hands with
every phase of opposition. We have larger
local issues at stake than party issues, and the
appeal comes from many sources: let us have
a year of po.itiGa! independence. But this
INDEPENDENCE must be won over the regular
bourbon political machine and the battle will
be fierce one as the ''ins" will hold on with
tenacity to their position of power.
This district, the 10th congressional, has
been denounced by our representatives to the
legislature as a radical district" and lair
count of noses evidently shows fair prospect
for straight republican victory, but, 1t is sug
gested to take advantage OF such an oPportu-
nifty might ..injure the independent cause
all over the state, and besides there
are hundreds of men in the district
who have heretofore acted with the democratic
party, whose interests drive them in OPPOSE
ton and they should be allowed an easier
transition than to be compelled to vote for
republican convention nominee. Now we
are willing to consider all this; we are willing
to concede great deal for the public good,
but if there is an independent candidate in the
10th district, he must be republican, because
the interests at stake are dependent on the re-
publican party for protection and support.
