now adopted, the movement cannot fail Of
popular support. Anti-monopoly and free
goods are the watchwords, the ringing
key notes of ;he peoples party, and
any word of cheer --or effort calculated
to bring them prominently out as political
issues, is but a just and wise step in behalf
of suffering humanity. In conclusion we
cannot do better than quote the Banners
article referred to: There is in reality no
political issues before the people of Texas
that in any way affect the state govern
ment. A United States senator is to be
elected, and as matter of course we want
u democratic legislature to elect demo-
cratic senator. The only live
issues now before the country at
large are the tariff question and what shall
be done to check the tendency toward giant
monorolies The masses of the people,
both democrats and republicans, are greatly
interested in these issues. The federal adj
ministration is republican, and as the ad-
ministration has great power and many
places, IL is only reasonable that that party
will use all its influence and power to main
tainitsclf and hold on to the spoils. Beyond
this there is in reality no vital issue. The
currency question is settled, and the peo-
pie in the southern states are being left to
manage their state affairs in their own
way, and are prosperous and happy"

Correspondence OF the Herald.
LAWRENCE, February 21.-Our usually
quiet village was thrown into considerable
excitement last Thursday by IL. II. Below,
deputy sheriff of Collin county, who was in
search of assistance to arrest one Colonel
Stacy, whom he had arrested in Terrell
upon a warrant issued in Collin county,
charging Stacy with cattle stealing. Below
stated that Tracy had asked the privilege
of going by home to get some clothing, and
upon entering the house, he Immediately
seized fire shovel and commenced an as
sault upon the officer, knocking him down
with the first blow. Below quickly regained
his feet and commenced firing with his re-
yolyer upon STACY, who sprang behind
| the door. Firing was continued
| by Below till he empticd his revolver.
Then Stacy got his rifle, and the officer re-
! treated to reload. In the meantime Stacy
ran to ncighbor's house near by and Dor
rowed q double-barrel shotgun, and when
the officer returned he found Stacy pre-.
pared to carry on the battle, and consider.

along u little ravine running north of town.
! Lawrence ana Terrell were soon IN arms
and prepared to scour the country for the
escaped prisoner, who was known to have
been wounded severely in the melee with
the officer. About this time Mr.. Overton,
living in the edge Of town, went to draw
some hay from stack near the ravinc
about mile and half from Stacy's heusc.
Here he found Stacy, who was pretty nearly
exhausted from pain and loss of blood
The officer was promptly notified and Il

THE CORRECT PHILOSOPHY.

a few days since there appeared in the
BRENNAN Banner an exceedingly sensible
and wcll-written article upon the political
situation in this state, in which the ground
is taken that there is really no political
issues now dividing the parties in this
country, and everything is reduced to n
question of dollars and cents. 1t is cx.
cccdingly fortunate for us that the old sores
engcndcrcd by the war have been so nearly
healed, and that the nation
to-day stands so nearly unit
upon all the momcntous questions demand
ing attention. The campaign of 1850 was
notably frcer from sectional and party
abuse than was that of 1876, and We have OF
late years been steadily growing into a
broader patriotism and n wider fraternity
than we have since WEBSTER and HAYNI
locked in the celebrated discussion relative
to the nature of our government and which
will always be one of the most
interesting episodes in our history
1t is source of unalloyed qualification
when 5o,0O00oO of people can dwell together
under the same vine and fig tree and have
literally nothing of significance, politically
to disturb them, or create discussions, OF
render them unhappy. All ihc various
subjects Of discord which used to prove 50
disastrous to us, which We're, in fact, the
constantly recurring themes of every cam.
paign until recently, have been buried

and the American people pre-
sent the spectacle nowhere els,

the subjects of the tariff and anti.monopol!

opinion, and public sentiment is rapid!

WE learn from Washington dispatch
that the eminent Chicago advocate, the
Hon. EMORY SToRRs, has been arguing
against the proposed ant-railroad legisla-
ton in congress. AS intimated in the CAPT
tai city advces, it seems to be a matter of
congressional policy to make an annual
raid upon the railroads; but somehow or
other nothing ever comes oft. A few loud
and vigorous talks are made, and then
everything becomes suddenly as quiet as
the grave-why, who can tell? The dis
patch referred TO says; EMORY SToRRs, of
Chicago, argued in the interest of west.
ern railroads before the interstate
commerce committe. Further consider
alton was postponed until March II. He
pointed out that REAGAN's bill would dis
crimlnate against some roads, notably the
Pennsylvania, and would favor the New
York Central by the peculiar provisions
of that bill shipper in Chicago could ship
by water from Chicago to Buffalo cargo
ofgrain which could be sold in Buffalo and
Immediately shipped by the New York
Central to New York, neither the railroad
nor the water transportation being affected
by REhGAN's bill, lie criticised the dispo-
sition cvinced in congress to make annual
raids on railroads. II encouraged yenality
in state legislatures.

The SUMS Attack on the ca,,'

n SUMS Attack on the Cattle
Interest.
Here is a paragraph taken from the
SUMS article %criticising the Democratic
ticket:
1.-The ticket chosen yesterday is a pc
culiar one Some of its weak points
are seen at a glance; others, weaker,
but more obscured, exist. While the
cattle interests of the territory are of
great Importance and recognized alike
by democrats and republicans, a ticket
embracing within its more prominent
places no other class of the community
becomes distasteful to many voters 9TH
erwise interested, while its strength
will not be perceptibly increased by
reason of a solid vote from the stock
element. A glance at the nominations
for members of the council, when taken
into consideration with the other por-
tions of the ticket, will point the argu-
ment. This dissatisfaction is perhaps
more noticeable among democrats them
selves than elsewhere, but it exists. =
Sun, Of yesterday.
Had the Sun man counted the num-
Der of cattle men on the republican
ticket and the number on the demo-
cratic ticket, he would have found just
about a round dozen on each. In his
anxiety to say something mean about
the democrats he forgot to look at
home.
Supposlng that there was a majority
of stock-raisers on either ticket? What of
it? What built up Cheyenne of to-day?
What is the paramount interest of
Laramie county Hasn't nearly every
man IN Cheyenne who has little
or much extra capital invested it in
cattle ? Isn't it difficult to find a bust
ness man here who has no cattle, or
who has not a direct business connec-
ton with the cattle interest ? The Sun,
during the present campaign, has been
by turns hypocritical, blatant, deceitful,
silent, filppaut, wrothy, paralyzed and
a sorehead. 1t was yesterday silly.
