FISH AND GAME

TINE Dallas markets arc always well supplied
with fish from the gulf at reasonable prices, and
are shipped from here In all directions. At this
time there are plenty OF fish caught In the river
and lakes surrounding Of fine quality. oysters
are slow sale and the demand from the country
light, but owing TO the expense Of bringing here,
prices are firm and steady. The game season
being past, there Is none on the market.

DRUGS.

DRUGS are no drug in the market in Dallas;
There have been heavy sales to-day and to all
directions. This trade is really assuming mag
niicent proportions in this CITY, and when II is
remembered that only few. months ago the
drug business here was almost confined to
retail and local demands. and that now tits CO.
extensive with all north Texas, some idea may
be had of the progress it has made in the last
twelve months. Prices are steady, and hardly
an article in this line can be named that is not
offered as low here as the same quality cam be
bought for in any other city west of New YORK.

7JLDEN ONCE MORE.

The periodic TildeD friend who talks freely
about the old man" has been heard from
again. This is not surprising. There mas
been a depressing lull in Tilden prospects for
full month, and it must be apparent to the
SAGE that If he does not take a hand himself in
waking things up bit it will be too late pres
emily for anybody to do it successfully. Inc
friend says the /" old man puzzles his intimate
associates very much, he backs and fills so pc
culiarly. At one time he declares positively
that he will never again be candidate for
Office When they take him at his word ana
begin TO suggest suitable successors to HIM as
the Democratic candidate he invariably OBJ
iects to them, and pretends to favor somebody
who could by no possibility ever be selected by
the party. Thus his most recent favorlte Is
Judge HOadly, of Cincinnati. 1t is natural
he should have a fOndness for HOadly, be-
cause that eminent lawyer was the only Jurlst
in the whole United States who had the
audacity to publish an "opinion" defending
the legality of Cronins celebrated Electoral
College of One in Oregon.
The friend says, according to Cath, OF me
Cincinnati Enquirer, that Iloadly is lawyer
"of Tidens own descripton-that is, man
with the negative qualities, affiliated with the
"more recent Democracy, a war man weary OF
" the Republican party. Tilden thinks the ac-
"Gulsition of that vote essential to Democratic
@success. He looks upon HOady as Liberal
" Republican" 1t is impossible to speak
seriously of such grOiesque nonsense az thar.
Hoadlys Liberal Republlcansm, like his legal
qualities, would be found on investigation to
be entirely negative. Hoadly Republicans
would be found to be even scarcer in the country
than Hancock Republicans were in 1850, and,
if we remember rightly, the tally on those stood
somewhere between seven and ten. Nor would
the number of Tiden Republicans be any
larger. If there has been anything settled
during the past five years, it is that Iilden as
magnet for Republican or Independent votes
has ceased to draw.

SO.

Close observers have appreEended for some
time that this season would witness unusual
disturbances in the labor market. The pro-
longed drouth last year caused remarkable
advance in the cost of articles of food Excess
sive speculation added something to the cost Of
breadstuffs and provisions, and some manuiac-
tured articles were also advanced Ill prlce.
Tables kept by The Public of this city show an
average advance in the wholesale coat of sew
eral hundred articles that enter most largely
into commerce OF about 1919 per cent since
MAY, 1881, but The advance III retail prices has
been much greater, and in articles OF food which
esDeciallv affect the cost of living for people OF
| the laboring classes the average increase has
| been about % per cent in wholesale and much
more in retail prices.
The working people see the quotations of
products of their labor and infer that the capt.
talists are making large profits. The fact that
sales are dull, and that immense stocks OF pro-
ducts are accommodating unsOld in many
branches they do not learn SO readily. In
deed the rivalry of different establishments
renders each reluctant to make known any i'll
fortune that it may meet. Sales below current
prices are concealed, accumulations of stock are
Last year at this time 8S1 900 pieces of print
cloths were on hand this year the stock is
/ .443, 900, an increase of $50, 600, or 81 per
cent. But no one can tell what quantities Of
sheetings and shirtings, heavy woollen cloths,
overcoats, winter suits and other made-up
clothing mild winter and dull trade have
left on hand. Coal production has been re-
stricted for several months by agreement of
anthracite producers and by great strike in
bituminous regions, and prices have been
nominaly sustained, but the accumulated sur
plus in the markets has not been cleared away.
Not long ago, when it was thought that rail-
road building would continue unchecked, over
$50 per ton was paid for steel rails that cannot
now be sold for $50, $67 for bar iron that is
now sold below S5S, and $40 for pig iron that
| is now offered at $23 so. But it is unhappily
well known to the producers that the decline in
prices does not yet represent the actual change
III the state of the markets. Prices are sus-
tanned as far as possible in the hope that greater
activity hereafter may enable holders to escape
part of their losses.
Another cause of msapprehension among the
working people is want of information AS to the
change in the cost of materials. Prints and
sheetlngs are now selling at the same price as
one wear ago, but the cotton from which they
are made costs about IL per cent more than it
did then. Bar iron and rails have declined
much more than pig iron and coal, the mate
rails from which they are made. The decline
in leather, since one year ago, has been twice
as great as the decline in hides, and the dimin-
ished demand for boots and shoes is more
troublesome than change in price. Wool
costs more than it did year ago. but holders
cannot get as much for woolen goods. With
