Men, women and children
love justice. They may not
always be just to Others, but
they always like others to be
just to them; and therefore
we never sell to one person
lower than we do to another.
When people earn money hon
estly, it is theirs, and 1t is per-
fectly right for them to buy
where they can get the most
for their money. We buy for
cash, and it is the power of
our money that induces others
to sell US cheap goods. We
sell for cash, and 1t is the pow
or of your money that induces
us to sell so low. Verify mo-
ney isagreat power, butshould
never be used for any but a
good and proper purpose.

REPUTATION.

Upon the day that the Chase
Trading 90. commenced bust
ness at Fort Worth it was re-
solved by that company to
obtain a broad reputation for
three things in their business /.
Absolutely but one price !.
absolutely lou prices, and
fair dealing---treat the people
well and never do them a sin
gle wrong or injustice, and
that it would even be better
sometimes to wrong ourselves
than to wrong our customers.
How far we have succeeded
in executing our intentions, we
cave the public to determine.

the legislation of the country. Col.
Chenoweth has all the necessary
energy and pride, coupled with good
ability, to make his mark as n member
of congress, and If the signs Of the
times can be read Alright he is likely to
succeed in this race, and become one
of delegation from Texas, that will
rank in ability with the best OF The
whole Union.
In connection with the financial
crash in New York, IL 10 Il comfort To
us as Democrat and - low-tarin man
to know that it came after the periidy
of q few Democrats had defeated the
Morrison tariff bill in congress, for II
it had followed its success, such howl
as Radicalism would have raised on
the heels of these failures would have
been almost irresistible. They would
have charged the whole devilment to
the decentralization produced by It's re-
mole effects, and ascribed every failure
to the lack of confidence in m0neyed
circles produced by what they
please to call unfayorable
legislation. But now we Democrats
have the whip-hand in the race TO
come, and can show that the fostering
fayors of partial legislation cannot pre-
vent the calamities naturally flowing
from n vicious system that has grown
up under Republican mismnnagement,
| and NAV If continued bring greater
misfortunes in the near future.

to Oden, having visited Berber, Har-

There has been some doubt as to the
feeling of the tribes inhabiting that
section, but Hunter reports them well

condition of affairs in Soudan. there
will be no danger of trouble, he be-

Mayor Fulton Receives the Lie from a
Galveston Alderman.
GALVESTON, April 7.-Regarding
Mayor Fulton's statement that he had
been offered by alderman John Veg
ner bride of $1,000 not to oppose the
sale of the water works to the city,
Mr.. Wegner says: 1T is not only IN
true, but Mayor Fulton knows it to be
untrue. The occasion referred to was
more than two months ago, and there
fore several weeks before the last cleo
ton, when l was elected to represent
the 18th ward in the city council, be-
ing my own successor. This story is
told now because Fulton has discov-
cred that l cannot be used to serve
the purposes of the mayor. If there
had te9n any truth in the matter. and
if the mayor had been prompted by an
honorable motive. why did he not
open his mouth before 1 was
returned as alderman? The statement
is untrue in every essential and he
knows it."

End of an Outlaw.

The following, relative to notori-
rious character not unknown in this
state, is copied from the Fort Smith
(Ark.) Elevator
Last week we mentioned the condi-
ton of one John Robinson, who was
brought in by Deputy Marshal ]. III.
Mershon, in a very precarious condi-
tion. On Sunday night he died, max
ing the following statement just be-
fore the grim messenger overlook
him That his proper name was John
Wooliver that he had a brother, T.
L. Wooliver, living in Summerville
county, Texas. and some relatives in
Lakeville, Stoddard county, Missouri:
that he had killed man in western
Texas, about a woman, and then fled
to the Indian territory, where he had
engaged in peddling whisky, in con-
nection with others. A party now in
the United States Jail says Wooliver
had also been engaged in horse steal
ing, having stolen a horse from the
widow Couledge, and one from Ned
Roberts. Wooliver was no doubt a
bad man, but his suffering for the
past three months was sufficient pun
ishment for almost any crime.

The White Elephant.

Indignation among all classes of our
citizens is running high over the pros
poets of the White Elephant folks, OF
San Antonio, establishing branch of
their place in Austin. It is said they
propose to establish an open gambling
place in the upper story without any
attempt to conceal or hide it from the
general public, such as they are openly
running IN defiance of law in other
places. A STATESMAN represen-
tative heard perhaps forty of
Austin's most liberal and in
fiuential citizens say if this institution
was started in Austin with the uni
versity and all the other institutions
here) five hundred men were ready to
band together and use their influence
to secere next winter a law to make
gambling in any college town In the
state a felony, and the property IN
which it was carried on liable Tor all
fines assessed And this association
will use all honorable means
to procure an indictment
against this place for every day
gambling is carried on. These men
appear to be deeply in earnest, and
certain it is, if such an institution as
the white co Elephant" is planted in
Austin, not only this white Ele-
phant," put all gambling in Austin
will have seen its death-blow. Seldom
has so much feeling been expressed Cd
any subject as was heard yesterday ID
the indignation against this proposed
open door gambling den. Said leading
banker. and one of the most liberal
men in Austin. So long as a rev
quiet sober men carried on in secret
gambling, no objection has been OF
probably will be raised, but to have
branch institution like that of Sar
Antonio, planted by these men t.
fiaunt its vice in the face of the uni
versity is too much, and they. woult
see what sort of people Austinis made
I'D of. There is fun coming, sure.

Brown County.

To the Editor of The Statesman.
BRowNwooD, Tex, April z, 1885,
Our town has been and exceedingly
dull in spite of the fact that district
court has been in session for nearly
two weeks. This term OF the court is
an utter failure, so far as business is
concerned, since everything was
burned last month. Judge Blackburn,
after vainly endeavoring to get some
cases to trial during last week, dis
missed the jury for this week,
and sent them home. The grand jury
is hard at work. however, and; have
made it right lively for the wrong
doors, many of whom are now pining
behind the Jail bars. The whole of
next week will be taken up with the
criminal docket. No arrests have yet
been made for fence cutting,
nor any bills returned for that
offence. though if anything
| in regard to this midnight marauding
on peoples property, as Judge Black
burn denominated it in his charge to
them can bel discovered, the prompt
Jury will unearth it. Candidates for
the various office are sprouting rap
idly with the coming grass and open
| ing buds. No one has yet declared
| for district Judge, however. We are
very sorry to lose our pres
emit incumbent, Judge Blackburn, for
all regard him as an able and efficient
adjudicator of the questions that come
up before him in his official capacity
The people here are beginning tc
believe universally that Fort Worth
is only giving us taffy about building
q railroad, and, unless something il
done soon, will turn their attention
elsewhere and work from othe
sources-forwe must have road ever
il we have to build it, which we hat
better do than to give the large subsi
sidy asked for by the Fort Worth syn
dictate.
