TEXAS STATE NEWS.

Cleburne ChSonicle. There has
scarcely day passed recently that we
have not observed wagons, loaded
down with men, women and children
going east. They say that there is
certain to be 6, great deal Of suffering
IN some counties out west. They have
mao poor season, but little rain, and
there Is general dissatisfaction.
A few nights ago while Rev. B. II.
Carroll of the Waco Baptist church
was NJ prayer meeting negro boy
and two negro " omen took his horse
and buggy and drove them nearly to
death. They were captured and
jailed.
: There is an association or number of
hen banded together in Stephens
county which has for its object the
cutting OF the wire fences of large pas
lures. All the small tract fence own
ers laughed and held their peace while
the large fences Were being denlol-
lshed. But now the wire cutters have
turned their attention TO the small
fences and there is violent kick
ing.
After 1890, Texas will have popu-
lation Of 100000 and then thew viii

from the Lone Star state. New York
and ONO will case to have a monopoly

hundred yards of the wire fenc.
around Mr.. Dave G. Jones' 4OO-acre

This IL the first fence cutting that has

outrage.

THE extra session of the Pennsylva-
mia legislature seems likely to be bar
rem of results. The parties are so
evenly balanced in the two houses
that neither can make any progress.
The rock upon which they are split is
the apportionment bill, and the appro-
priations are withheld until the other
is concluded. The Democrats of the
house are determined to apportion the
state in the interest of the party. and
the Republicans of the senate seem
equally determined not to permit It.
The principle of jerrymander has been
recognized as a right in the dominant
party, and the Republicans have re-
sorted to it so often that it is incon-
sistent in them to object. Each party
feels confident that their partisan sup
porters will endorse their course, re-
gardless of the expense and inconve.
nience eutailed upon the state by the
prolongation of the session.

The Jury system.

The jury system, the boosted pal
ladium Of American liberties, which
gives every man right to be tried by
a jury of his peers, is again on trial,
and the public will watch the result
with deep interest. All eyes are
turned towards Nashville Tennessee
where MARSHAL Il. Polk is arranged
for embezzling pnblic funds
entrusted TO his keeping. SO
many cases of Importance have oc-
Cured recently in which juries have
failed to come up to the standard of
public expectations, that unusual in
terest is ccntered in this case, OF
course, there was no intelligent citizen
of the state who had not heard of
PoLK's crime and formed an opinion
about the thicfs guilt. No person of
this class was placed on the jury.
Those who had opinions were not
wanted. For two weeks the court en-
deavored to find twelve men so ig-
norant that they had not read any
thing about the great robbery of tax
payers money, and had not formed or
expressed an opinion about the guilt
or innocence of the defendant. Out of
the first hundred men they examined
only two were accepted, and more
than one thousand men were rejected
before the panel of twelve was com
pleted. No one of these twelve men
has read anything about the robbery
and two of them are so ignorant that
they do not know in what district
they live. With such jury as this,
il is hardly to be expected
that an intelligent verdict will
follow the trial. "a silk purse cannot
be made of n sow's garland an intel
ligent verdict can not be had on the
intricate points which will arise in u
case of such magnitude, when it is
submitted to jury of ignoramuses,
whose ignorance is their only uualiti-
ton for jury service. The jury laws
should be so amended as to exclude
the emily class which are now eligible
to service.

THE editor of Harper's Weekly, a
literary publication with Republican
tendencies, has given the members OF
his party deal of trouble oflate years.
He is the only original and genuine
civil service reiormer of the age. He
has agitated the subject until it has
assumed form and shape, but it is
wholly unserviceable and does not
meet the requirements of the occasion.
He is still determined and not the
least discouraged. He "bobs up Sc
nelly" with the proposition that con-
gress repeal the statute of 1920, which
limits the commissions of civil officers
TO the term of four years, thus ena-
bling a man once in office to hold it
until he was removed for cause, died
or resigned. Doubtless the Republic
cans in office would favor such law,
but what n gnashing of teeth there
would Ice among those whose services
TO the party and whose "inilooencen
had not been recognized.

MANY of our readers will remember
the petite editress of the Htrricdnf, II
literary paper pabli in Charleston,
= Z. The young journalist gathered
many shekels in this and other towns
Tor subscriptions to her paper. Some
OF the state press have denounced her
as u fraud, and say no snch paper Is
printed. A friend has presented the
GAZETTE with u copy us evidence OF
ats existence. IL is very neat little
Paper, and is worth the price of the
subscription. An article on the edi.
torial page announces that the editress
was sixteen years of age on July
eleventh.

THE Democrats are not interested
in the work in which DORSEY is en-
gagged of besmirching GARFIELD's
reputation except MS it is confirma-
ton OF what was charged against him
during the campaign. What the pub
lie is most interested in is the part
that living men took in the contest
men who are to-day leaders and adj
visors in the Republican ranks and
who are aspirants for honors at the
hands of the people.

THE fact that the New York Star,
which is controlled If not owned by
JoHS KELLY, has spoken favorably of
the ticket of 1875, is regarded AS an ev-
idence of IA truce between Tamany and
the Tildenit,g, and an indication that
an effort will be made to revitalize the
idea of vlndication. That issue was
buried at Cincinnati in 1880.

THE Waco Examiner of the 18th in
slant makes comparison of the popu
lation OF Fort W nth and Waco, and
introduces the local statistician to give
testimony in the case. We are at
loss to discover why the Examiner
selected Fort Worth to compare Waco
with. Why did it not take London or
New York. 1t would have served its
purpose as well. 1t makes its calcula-
ton from the number Of children in
the two cities and by showing that
there has been an increase
of scventy-tive children in
Waco in year and decrease
of twelve in Fort Worth during the
period-egn Fort Worth is on the de-
cline and Waco is booming. The fact
is that Fort Worth wives have at
tested their loyalty to their lords by
the presentation of triplets within the
year, and that twins are of common
occurrence, should satisfy the Era M
iner that this is a prolific city. But
the figures tell their own tale. They
tell that either the assessor in
Waco is uncommonly vigil
liant and active, or that
that public functionary in Fort Worth
Is laggard. The decrease in the
scholastic population OF this city can
not be safely relied on to prove that
the city is on the down grade.
The preponderance of testimony is on
the other side. The GAZETTE rejoices
in the growth of Waco, even though
it be confined to children. They will
become men and women some day,
and perchance have children too, and
If Waco can only manage to keep
them all at home, it will, like Forth
Worth, attain a population which will
place 1T above any feeling of,rivalry
and jealousy just as Fort Worth feels
now. No one ever hears any boast
about Fort Worth's size nowadays.
1t don't need any. It's large enough
to speak for itself.
