THE STATE PRESS.

The Graham Ledder does not pro-
pose to do any guess work about the
18th legislature. 1t will wait for the
returns, which is safe proceeding.
II says:
We have the names of the members
elected by the people, but the returns
from railroad syndicates, land syndi-
Gates, whisky syndicates state capitol
syndicates and cattle syndicates are
not to be opened until the Legislature
meets; therefore we cannot tell of
what material the full legislature will
be composed
The local authorities Of Waco have
been taking the census of that city, and
the Examiner takes a sad but philo-
sophical view OF the result. 1t says:
While the exact population is not
yet determined, sufficient in known to
render 1T certain that the population
OF Waco by this census will not be
10000, the magic number on which SO
much depends, and about which so
much solicitude has been felt. Ac-
cording to calculations founded on
crude footings it will be between 8 900
and $500, sufficiently near to be vexa-
tious and remote enough to preclude
any hope of reaching ten thousand
for another year or two.
But Waco does good business, as
the following excerpt from the same
paper will show
The total shipment of cotton over
the three railroads from September /.
ISL, TO January /, 1883, is 27,65S bales.
This includes the receipts by rail AS
wen as wagon, with probably 1000
bales on hand, making total receipts to
date 2s,65s. Estimating one-fourth OF
the crop TO be yet, gathered will give
IA total for the season of 81, SD bales.

aud the saying is sometimes true. The
following from the Gainesville Press

ciating the fact that all the readers OF
any one issue of paper cannot be
pleased with its entire contents, the
GAZETTE ventures to reproduce it,.

ment of their debts in the Federal
courts. All laws for the collection of
debts from dishonest debtor are Ia a
measure futile, and the individual 'or
company which does business on the
credit system must rely mainly upon
the honesty of his customer for the
prompt discharge Of his pecuniary OBJ
legations. The South is rapidly
recovering from the financial
embarrassment occasioned by the
war, and IL ia a better situation to do
business on a cash basis than ever be-
fore in its history. The additional
power given the creditor to collect his
debt, will result in a more reckless and
ill-considered extension of credits, and

ship, and as there is no probability
whatever that Samuel d. McEuery
whatever that Samuel d. McEnery
will ever get the nomination of a
Democratic convention, the question
of supporting him for election is an
idle one"
No importance is to be attached 10
the first part Of this statement, unless
it was held necessary to show what
particular individual of "the concord
of patriots" was, on Friday, the un-
fortunate object of the Pics guileless
trust and devotion; but not SO with the
main and concluding clause.
The question of supporting Gov.
McEnery $50, election is an idle one,"
forsoOth!
That l now insist, as of proof con-
fessed, was the identical question pro-
pounded by Col. McCranie, and as an
answer ought to be forthcoming, and as
the friends of Gov. McEnery desire to
know, without reservation, upon what
terms they are to meet their opponents.
whether as Democrats acknowledging
fealty to party nominations, or rs
Democrats denying the binding obliga-
tons ofsuch a compact-the Picayune
is here invited aud requested to define
its position on the question which l
have above italicised. Anticipating a
possible objection, we can suppose a
case as Judge Edmunds, Gen. Butler
and others have done in the legal
tender suit pending before the United
States Supreme Court, and with such
high authority even the Picayune
will hardly find fault.
