A Texas Tornado.

Interesting details of Saturday
nights storm are coming in. "A
News special this evening says no
serious damage to property is re-
ported, except at Greenville. The
storm assumed the form of lorna
do. At Bonham, lightning struck a
hack returning from a picnic, kill
ing the colored driver and team,
and tearing to pieces the convey
ance, which six negroes had just
vacated to escape the storm. AT
Palestine, Samuel Howard, on 4
fishing excursion with another
prominent citizen and two little
boys, was caught in a terrible rain
storm, and started for shelter. In
the darkness, Howard walked into
the creek and the others were un
able to save him.
The News Dallas special says
the storm Saturday night seems to
have done it's work of devastation
IN narrow strips, in sections mile
apart. At Cedar Hill, south OF
Dallas, the farmers report growing
crops fiattened to the ground, fences
blown down and reapers and
wagons standing in the fields rolled
over and torn apart by the fury of
the wind.
Near Hntchens' station the de
struction is so complete as to dis
hearten the people, some Of whom
came to town to-day, having given
up farming and turned their atten
ton to work as day laborers.
Wheat standing in shocks was
scattered to the winds, the water IN
huge streams ploughed the fields
and CUT jagged ruts through what
had been model stands Of corn, cot
ton and grain. Hail of large size is
banked up in low places, and left
traces of its violence by killing
sheep, calves, rabbits, dogs and
birds.
Fifteen miles west of Dallas great
trees in the cross timbers were torn
up and carried long distances, or
chards were twisted and stripped Of
their branches and the young fruit
was strewn on the ground. Wher-
ever the tempest struck there are
left reminders of the deluging rain,
murderous hail and terrific light
ming.

There is a flaming backwardness
upon the part Of leading republi-
cans to announce or suffer them
selves announced as a candidate for
president. Who the great to-be-
mashed is to be is great unsolVed
problem. They all back and refuse
the offer of the chance to compete
for the holocaust. There is no
unanimity of thought, action or
purpose. The little fellows are
leading and the great lights are OBJ
scured. There is a dense fog and
stink coming up from the corrup
tions and stealings and .defaultings
OF the brethren that has thrown the
whole crew into a malarial disorder.
There is not a newspaper in the
land that exhibits q confident air
or has the temerity to claim a vic
tory for the frousy old corpse. The
men who could organize and lead
and force success are laid low
Conkling committed suicide, Blaine
was kicked out the back door,
Grant petered out naturally, and
such men as Chandler are ruling
the roost. There is nothing sureI
than their defeat if the democrats
are wise.

THE PULASKI CITIZEN

Gov. John c.. Brown went to New
York last week undetermined
whether to accept the presidency of
the Florida Ship Canal. His in
vestigations satisfied him of its ex-
pediency and the soundness of the
company and he Immediately ac-
cepted. This means it's certain
construction. He resigns his CON
nection with the Gould railroad
system to take the management of
this, and the voluntary surrender OF
such an important and lucrative
connection means that the other
enterprise is of vaster interest
The papers all over the land con-
graduate the company upon his &C
ceptance, acknowledging that his
great energy and ability is an as
Surance of it's perfect success.

Senator Malone has been in
Washington several days trying, it
is said, to regain the ground he is
understood to have lost with the
administration. He and his lieuten-
ants do not hesitate to say some
pretty harsh things about the sec
rotary Of the navy and the post
master general, because of the in
vestigations they have set on foot
into the management of the navy
yard and post-otiice at Norfolk. 1t
is the talk that Malone is becom
ing alarmed over the often repeated
assertion that the administration is
no longer in sympathy. with him
and his plans, and will no longer
give him free use of the federal pat
ronage in Virginia.

Farmers, Association.

Quite a number of farmers of
Middle Tennessee met in Nashville
last Saturday to organize the Mid
die Tennessee Agricultural AssOci-
ton. Col B. f. Cockrill was made
permanent chairman and a vice
president elected from each county.
DR.. z. Edmundson is the vice pres
ident for Giles, and is also a mem
Der of the committee on cOnstitu
ton and by laws. After prelimina-
ry discussion and speaking, Tues
day, Sep. 18th next, was fixed for
holding a state agricultural conven-
ton in Nashville.
This movement will no donbt
be productive of much good if per
sistently prosecuted. Almost ev-
cry calling, trade and profession
have organized into associations
and unions for mutual assistance
and protection. Farmers consti-
tute perhaps eighty per cent. of the
people, and yet they pull against
each other and suffer for want of
unanimity Of action and interchange
of views and mutual assistance.
There are a thousand directions in
which their work may be made eff
fective. Do you want fish law, a
fence, a dog law, a stock law, or
any kind of legislation to promote
your interests? All you have to do
is to say so in convention or
through proper authority, and it is
bound to follow. Farming nipple
ments and incidents and expedients
and experiments will be discussed
and the best brought out. You
can protect yourselves against en-
croachments and monopolies and
expressions. The intelligent farm
er readily grasps the immensely of
the possible advantages. The
question is, will you sustain and as
sist and push the project? We in
vite discussion through these col
umns.

Although the star route trial is
not yet ended the record up to this
point is the largest ever made in
a criminal trial in this country.
Printed in small type, and octave
size, it comprises over six thousand
pages, or about four and a quarter
millions of words. The report of
the preliminary proceedings up to
date, when the taking of testimony
begun, covered 463 pages. The di-
rect testimony for the prosecution
occupies 2,31S pages. Merrick de
livered the largest speech of the
trial, lasting nine days and cover
ing 2S9 pages of the record,
The record of the Guiteau trial
comprised $500 pages and was re-
garded as one of extraordinary
length, but it becomes quite insight
icant compared with this enormous
record.

What in the world does the
World want to defend Gov. Bate
for exercising the pardoning power
for? It's his right, duty and power
to do so when circumstances arise
of which he alone is the judge as to
their suficiency. The long list of
pardons issued by Gov. Hawkins
furnishes not the slightest reason
or excuse pro or con Gov. Bates
actions in like matters. OF course
this power can be abused, but the
Banner and the World and all the
balance. of mankind know, if they
know Bate, that he is not the man
to abuse it, He may act unwisely
or unadyisedly, but he will not
wantonly nullify the laws thus.

The Boston Herald thinks that
the Kentucky democrats need not
look into Indiana for a presidential
candidate, when they have, in the
person of Senator Beck, of their
own state, ga better man, either as
a candidate or possible president,
than either Mcdonald or Hen
bricks. He is an able, more expe-
rienced, sitter backed and clearer
headed statesman than either of
them. His honesty is unques-
toned, his principles are demo
cratic and he has the full courage
of them" The Herald followed up
this eulogy of the senator by ask
ing why should not Kentucky boom
for him.

He can and will be beaten if the

could have had the nomination but
declined. The nomination does
not awake any enthusiasm. If the
democrats beat the race in Ohio it
will get the g. o. p. in a dead run
