On His Muscle.

Hon. G. w. Jones, independent candidate
for GOVERNOR, is a man of muscle as well al
ability and pluck. Friday, at Denton, he
had a little pugilistic exercise with a party
whom he thought Clipped in at the wrong
time. The Denton Monitor has the follow
ing to say of it:
At noon Yesterday Colonel G.. w. Jones,
the independent candidate for governor,
was sitting at one of the tables in the din
ipg-room OF the st. James hotel in this city
eating his dinner. Ex-Governor Throck'
morton YVES also eating at the same table
The subject was politics. and these two gen,
tlemen we're making. fun in their usua
friendly way at each others expense. John
man of about q years of age, was sitting at
an adjoining table, and did not know who
Colonel Jones was. The latter gentleman
smoke of the independent movement, and
al this point Work spoke up and
asked what an independent was. Twas
he a g~reenbacker in a ~greenback crowd,
O republican in q republican ,croWq,
a democrat in a democratic crowd, ~
These remarks were not addressed to vol
onel Jones directly, but he, nevertheless,
took offeuse and expressed himself in very
severe language, characterizing. Works re-
marks as being insulting. Work spoke up
and said that he did not mean to offend him
and ~endeavored to apologize. Colonel
Jones then said that he was a liar and q
scoundrel. Work then said that Colonel
Jones was an old man and did not want
a difficulty with him. Colonel Jones said
that he was twenty.one years of age; that
he understood this was a ku klux town and
asked what Work was paid for coming here
aud insulting him. -,
Work then got up and left the dining
room, saying that if Jones would step out,
side he would whip him. Jones finished
his dinner, and on entering the office of the
hotel found Work leaning against the desk,
and said to Work, "Now am out OF the
dlning-room." What ensued is not GER
tain, but at any rate Jones received an
ugly hurt over the left eye. In the opinion
Of most every one Work is ~inexcusable.
Colonel Jones' gray hairs should have pro-
tected him in our community. 1t may be
said in ~extenuation, however. hat young
Work did not know Colonel Jones and Of
fered freely to apologize. Colonel Jones also
remarked to the writer of these lines that
he had probably acted Unexpectedly.
When brought before Mayor Herbert last
evening, both Colonel Jones and young
Work were DISCHARGED,

Mr.. Jesse Berry and three other gentle
men were In this cltylast Wednesday, and
on their way home, this side Of Owens
bridge, on Elm, were met by two young
men, who confronted them with drawn
pistols and ordered Glands up" Mr..
Berry was the only one who had any artil-
lery, a pistol. which was taken from him
together with $35 in good and lawful
money. The others were impecunious and
lost nothing. The only description they
could give of the robbers was that they
were young men, well dressed, and were
exceedingly polite in their demands fol-
money. II is only q question of time when
the robbers will be bagged, for history fails
to relate where any highway robber has
ever escaped the clutches of the law. 1t is
a sure thing that they will do the state
some service in the penitentiary.
On the evening of the same day another
highway robbery was committed some
three miles south of the city
on the Central railroad. A man by the
name of Hardeman was halted by two
mounted men who. with their weapons
thrust in his face, forced him TO disgorge
$26, all the money he had. They had silk
or colored handkerchieis tied about the
lower part of their face, and were riding
good horses. They were both in the prime
of life.
There was a rumor afloat that a robbery
had been committed near Carrollton, but
the officers here do not credit the report.

said to get drunk on beeisteak. The organ
ic processes of life depend upon the stimu-
lus of food, air, exercise, etc. Nor is alco'
holdemarked from all other stimulants. Its
good for the old and for the weak. The Bible
advises its use when PAUL wrote TIMOTHY
TO take 1t ''for the stomach's sake !" and
TITUS simply admonishes that "old women
should not be given to too much wine"
CHRIST, in His miracle of CANA OF Galilee,
taught His disciples and the world that the
Nazarcnes were not right when they
G chewed the use OF all wines, any
more than the Essenes were when they
denied the rite of marriage. And so, too,
when in prison Pau wrote: II tell you,
brethren, let no man Judge you what you
shall eat or what you shall drink" 1t is
not Tie use of this particular stimulant, but
the abuse of oneself through it that makes
it an injurious thing. 1t has been argued
that because nearly all criminals are drunk
ards, therefore drunkenness is the chiefcause
of crime. 1t is retorted that this is a cou-
fusion of cause with effect for crime and
drunkenness 60 together as concurrent e'-
fects Of the same organization; that alcoholic
stimulation merely removes prudence, and
brings out true character without disguise,
in other words, in vino veritas so that the
brute who when drunk beats his wife would
beat her when heis soberifhe dared; so.that
if a number of quarrelsome men assemble
and drink together, they finish with fight
ing, and when convivial men assemble and
drink, they overflow with generosity, pro-
fuse friendliness, n finally by being abb
surdly affectionate. The truth is, that a
law that would prohibit a man from injur-
ing himself, whether by drinking rum too
Fl RELY, eating too much soup or by an over
dose of pickles, or the use of too much to-
bacco, exercise, ETC., is an infraction of per-
sonal and guaranteed liberty. The law
may punish for the effects of these when
, they violate anyone else's rights. And in
assuming and proceeding upon these fun
damental principles, the democracy have
planted themselves on ground identical
with that on which rest the arguments for
freedom of trade, freedom of banking, etc.,
and which must eventually triumph.

THE stalwarts in Pennsylvania have
dropped all other issues and now contend
simply that the election Of the democrats
means ''free.trade." The people, however,
do not seem to be unnecessarily alarmed
over the issue, and could not do better ser
vice for the country at large than by turn
ing the bloated and pampered manufactur-
ers and ~monopolists from power. What
ever the effects may be the democrats are
going 10 get possession Of the state.
