Hon. JAMES Ii. HOPKINS, of Pitts

Hon. JAMES Ii. HOPKINS, of Pitts
burg, Pennsylvania, in his letter ac-
cepting the Democratic nomination
for congress, writes:
sCameronism, which has so long
cursed Pennsylvania, has spread its
baleful influence into other states.
1t is Mahoneism in Virginia, Conk-
lingjsm in New York, and has other
names elsewhere. 1t is now known
by the general term of bosslsm.' 1t
means the corruption of the individ-
ual voters, the debauching of the
Legislators, the purchase of offices
and their prostitution to personal
ends. Tyrannical and insolent, rec
ognizing no merit but trucking and
subserviency, crushing all aspira-
tions that are not subordi-
mated to servile allegiance to the
chief, it has, to an alarming degree,
destroyed private virtue and public
purity. 1t has taught and practiced
the debasing doctrine that office is
not public trust, but merely ma
chine for controlling conventions
and caucuses under the name of as
sessment. 1t has plundered the office
holders and caused them IN turn 10
plumber the public treasury. Land
grants and subsidies, expedited star
routes and river and harbor bills are
favored, methods of raiding the
treasury for the benefit of those who
lend their services and contribute
literally to perpetuate the rule OF
the ring"
Every Democrat in Texas who
fails to give the fullest support to all
Democratic nominees is aiding in
the role of bossism prepared for
Texas. George Washington Jones
and Mr.. Davis have entered into
compact with the powers that be at
Washington to establish bossism in
Texas, that may play the role of
Malone. They have contracted to
break the power of Texas Democ-
racy at the coming election, and
partial success even would make this
power more aggressive two years
hence than now. Democrats are ex-
pected to do their duty under these
circumstances. Let this monsterism
it is proposed to establish in Texas
be destroyed in its conception. Let
not even weakly birth take place.
Kill it now, and in tae doubt
full counties let every Democrat
swear eternal fealty for his party
and vote for the nominees. Let us
never again have the delegated
power of the federal government
controlling the civil government
in Texas and her counties. Let
Travis county wipe away the
stain that dulls the name of the
capital county of Texas; and
as the nominee who dares not
labor earnestly in the good cause, let
him be named hereafter for political
destruction.

Mime. Gonzales, who has been Wis
iting Senior and Sonora Roa, at the
Mexican legation, Washington, is
the wife of the president OF the re-
public, and has come to this country
to perfect herself in the study of
medicine and surgery. She learned
the rudiments of both on the battle
fields of Mexico, where she won the
name of the "Modern Joan of Arc"
Her name and deeds are favorlte
themes for song and story
among the writers of Mexico.

Foop.-A good complexion never

FooD.-A good complexion never
goes with a bad diet. Strong coffee,
hot bread and butter, heated grease,
highly spiced soups, meats or game,
hot drinks, alcoholic liquors, fat
meats, are all damaging to its
beauty. Strong tea used daily will
after q time give the skin the
color and appearance of leather.
Coffee affects the skin less, but the
nerves more, and a healthy nervous
system is necessary to beauty. Late
suppers, over-eating at meals, eating
between meals, candies, sweetmeats.
pastry, preserves, etc., produce plm-
pies and blotches.

lack of principle in politics.

DEMOCRATS must retrieve Travis
county from the stigma of mongrel

ROTATION in Office is the way to
make the Democratic mare go best.
This inactivity, because man al
ready in Office is a candidate, can
only be broken up by putting new
men hereafter in the field. The hope
of reward is one of the greatest in
centives to proper party service.

Must Get over the BelIyache.
dallas Times.7

Wash went to Mckinney and
Throckmorton skinned him-his
friends said he was in bad health,
but would make up for it at Dallas.
He came here and WeIlborn lam
basted him, and Wash's own friends
felt bad for him-said he was still
sick. He went to Corsicana and
Mills did't leave a "greasy spot"-
Wash had better get well or stay at
home, for instead of making con-
verts he is demoralizing his own
gang. The "Almanac Party" now
say that Wash must get over his
bellyache or they will hunt another
prophet.

HE Them TO a Nunnery.

There are men who do not seem to
be able to read with any knowledge
of language, and who imagine that
every political mention is personal
attack. Such people are altogether
too sensitive, and have too vulnera-

tics or accept Office, and should "hie

According to Behrn and Wagner,
the total area ceded by Turkey to
Greece is 1850 square Kilometres,
with population of 299,953. The
total area of the immediate possess
sions of Turkey in Europe amounts
to only 165,438 square kilometres,
with a population of 4,490,000.
Counting, however, the countries
over which she has mere or indirect
sway = RumelIa, Bulgaria, Bosnia,
etc.,-Turkey covers in Europe an
area of 326,376 square kilometres,
with a population of 8,630,950. In
ASIA, again, her immediate posses
sioDs have an area of 1885, 900 square
kilometres, and population of 49,
$4,000; adding to this Cyprus and
Samos, we have for the total of the
Turkish possessions in Europe and
Asia an area of 2,225,445 square kill
ometres and population of 24,9S7,-
$50. We need hardly say that the
statistics with regard to Turkey
proper are very uncertain.
For Russia in Asia several changes
have to be made in the new issue
in connection with recent Turkoman
annexations and the retrocession of
Kulja to China. The present condi-
tiOn of Russia in Asia is as followss

TotalRussian empire 81, ,72s 9s,S23, 900
Soon probably to be incorporated
in this are the Turkoman region,
Kbiva and Bokara, covering an area
of 4,933,000 square kilometres, and
with total population of 3,280,000.
OF new figures for other Asiatic
countries we may give the following:
A new estimate for Persia reduces
the population TO 7,653,600 Afghan
istan, Kapuntia, Beluchistan and
Arabia remain at the old figures.
For China, Messrs. Behfn and Wag-
ner have carefully re-examined all
the evidences as to population and
taken into account fresh data, with
the result as we have said of induc-
ing them greatly to reduce the fig
ures. 1t has been customary to put
the total population of the Chinese
empire at 450,000,000, but in the pres
ent issue this has been reduced to
81, 100000, of which 350,000,000
belong to China proper. For Corea
the editors adhere to their old figure
of 8,500,000. japan in 1881, includ-
ing all the dependencies, had a popu-
lation of 36,357,212. The editors ex-
press great admiration at the fact
that the census of the whole of In
dia was taken i'll one day, and the
result published in a month or two
after. The final statement is that
the area of the whole of British In
dia, with tributary states, covers
1,457, 244 square miles, and that the
population amounts to Q88D 252,-
541,210. To this has to be added
Ceylon, with 2,470,227 square miles,
and 2,606,930 inhabitants. Passing
to farther India, we find that the
French Cochin-China has an area of
1886 square kilometres and pop
ulatiOn eff 1897 ,013, while AMMAN,
which will doubtless be soon calmly
annexed, has an area of 440,500
square kilometres and population
of 21,000,000. Of the East India is
lands, Sunda islands and Moluccas
have population of 28, 1867, 900, and
the Philippines of 6,3OO,0OO, accord
ing to figures obtained since last is
sue. So far as can be made out
from the confused statistics, the
Dutch possessions in the east cover
an..area of 1, ,462, 400 square kilometres,
with a population OFF,, 100000.
In Australia the results of the re-
cent census are given. The official
estimate of the area of the continent
seems to be about $4,000 miles too
great. The figures in the following
table by Surveyor General Skene
tally with Behrn and Wagner's own
calculation:
