Hon. S. S. Cox is building house in
Washington, and when approached by a
newspaper correspondent regarding the poli6-

political, as architecture and politics did not
mix, and when he got through with the house
he would be ready to talk politics.

NEw YORK CRY is about the only place in
these United States where smuggling matches
are tolerated, and it looks as II the Tribune
had 'pressntment in the following item {;
"If those two wandering ruiiians, Slade and
Mitchell, really ever had any intention Of
pummeliRg each other in a genuine prize
fight in the Southwest, it looks now at least
as il the affair would not come of. One tele-
graphs that the other must fight him at New
Orleans, and that this is fnal.' The other
says the fight can only take place in Mexico,
and that this is final. Let us hope for the
sake of decency that this is indeed the end
aud not only preliminary advertising for an
other brutal exhibition under police protection
at the Madison Square garden, in this CITY,"

Mr.. BLAiNEs statement published in the
telegraphic reports day or two ago, to the
effect that he is out Of politics, is liable to
work something Of revolution in the Repub-
lican ranks. During the past years Mr..
Blaine has been looked upon by a certain
faction Of the Republican party, as heir-ap-
parent to the Presidential nomination, and as
long as he was an active leader he would be
able to control that following. A newer man
in politics is needed by the Republicans, and
a man who is more intimately identified with
with the South and West, would prove much
stronger as a candidate befIre the people
than Mr.. Blaine, and that fact may be the
reason for the statement that he has retired to
private life. His retirement would in a
measure bury the Ratchet between the stall
warts and halfbreeds, and give Arthur
good position in the coming Presidential
race.

A NUMBER OF our State exchanges are talk

TO those made by explosions having been

causes Of the brevet "quakes."
The railroad is the great American civilzer,
but it is left for the Atchison, Topeka and
Santa Fe to take the initiative in the way Of
public morals. II is stated that that road re.
fuses to operate branch line to Dodge City,
Kansas, unless the gambling saloons and
brothels of that place are broken up.

THE Victoria Advocate, in speaking Of the
proposed San Antonio and Gull Coast rail-
road, "hopes that the people Of San Antonio
are in earnest about this matter, as the pro.
posed line would certainly prove of great
value in assisting to develop Southwest
Texas by the introduction of immigration and
consequent increase in agricultural popula-
ton"
The Henrietta Shield says: ave are glad
to say to our readers that the great Panhandle
countryis more prosperous this year than il
has been for years. The grass in all parts Of
the country, on the plains and in the valleys,
has made a vigorous growth and the cattle are
doing well. The farmers on the creek bot.
toms have all made good crops and prosperity
smiles upon all that region"
As A solution to the fence cutting trouble,
the Dallas Estray Record advises stockmen
to gradeup their cattle, and says: "Fewer
cattle and better quality decides the thing.
Why have 10000 head of cattle with $1,000
or 100000 acres of land to support them,
when with, say, 5000 head of improved
cattle and 10000 acres OF land for pasture /.
