TEXAS PRESS OPINIONS.
PISTOLS AND STUDENTS.


Brennan Banner: The killing of
young Jordan, a student at the Sam
Houston normal school, in Hunts
vile, by fellow student, should be
most thoroughly investigated. That
students should go about their
studies with pistols in their pockets
is somewhat strange, and to say the
least, is far from creditable.
WHAT THEY DO KNOW.
Comanche Chief: 1t is now as
serted by parties who profess to
know, that the governor will recon-
mend to the legislature the donation
of z, 2,500,000 acres to the state uniYer-
sity, and, in the event that body re-
fuses to grant the endowment, he
will veto any bill opening the
Texas Pacific reservation to the To-
cation of certificates.
A GosLING GOING TO WATER.
Dallas Times: Gosling, who is an
Independent editor like Henderson,
and who wants RusselPs place in
west Texas, has become disgusted
with the dirtslinging qualities of the
Washington politicians. He filed
his certificates of good character a
few days ago and started for home,
saying, as he left, that Arthur could
appoint whom he pleased as mar
shall. The president can but ad-
mire the liberality of Gosling in al
lowing the chief executive this priv
ilege. From Gosling's getting dis
gusted we infer that Gosling will
not be United States marshal for the
western district of Texas.
FooLIsHNEss THAT PAYS.
San Antonio Express: Western
Texas is fit only for stock, but occa-
sionally a misguided individual
foolishly turns his hand to some
thing else-Joe Hines, of Santa
Maria, for instance, who has made
an independent fortune in a few
years, raising corn, principally, and
Mr.. Geo. Brulaye. nine miles below
Brownsville, who this year made
eleven hundred barrels of sugar and
molasses i'll proportion. We might
fill column with names of men in
western Texas who have done well
at farming, and who will be electri-
fed with astonishment when they
are told, after all their experience,
that their country is unfit for any,
thing but stock raising.
Dallas Times: IF Gould is forced
to come down on railroad freights
and fares, he can get sweet revenge
by going up on telegraph rates.
This is another good hole for the
legislature to stop up.

LINCOLN is an aboriginal stalwart,
and that is why he is the only re-
tanned member of the Garfield cabi-
net. We rather think the exception

The pa 'senger tariff bull, bringing

without delay.
