The Lease-Law Candidate n johnson

The N''''-l'' o Saas'a''' johnson
Mr.. NJ. NJ. Crane, n candidate fol
representative of Johtson county
takes up a column an/ a half in the
Cleburne Telegram " defense of the
lease law. AS Mr.. Ane is an aspiran Mt
for public office hi position upon the
leading question of the states land
policy hesomes legitimate matter for
criticism. TINS GAZETTE proposes to
show the false coloring OF Mr.. Cranes
statements and expose the fallacies of
his conclusions.
Mr.. Crane attempts to establish n
distinction between the lease law and
herd law. The same ATTEMPT has
been made by others more skillful i'm
the handling of sophistical arguments
than no Is, but they have never con-
graduated themselves on the success OF
their efforts. Mr.. Crane puts IL this
way; Those who favor the herd INV
say That every man should keep all of
his own stock upon his own land.
This is the herd Law, pure and simple.
me lease law does not prohibit stock
from running at large in this or any
other part of the state of Texasn
rhat Is the point of distinction upon
which the gentleman's whole arpu.
ment Is founded. AS u matter If
minute fact, nobody has ever asserted
that the lease law does prohibit stock
nom running at large" in express
words, but when that lease law ia oar.
ried into operation 1t does inst
az eli,ctually prohibit stock fyo,
running at large as II n
said 50 In 80 many words
ii the country is leased out as tbe
present law provides, the actual settler
VINO Is surrounded by the leased land
IL not suffered to put his stock ON that
,"hu' lie cannot take up, under the
law more than one section. He can.
not iced his stock of this section far
all the adjacent land Is leased and
fenced. Thus the operation of the
lease law has the same effect In rs
s!!iaining him within his own land ms
'iit mad directed him to fence his stock
on that land. II he cannot GET along
on oio acres he is driven ont Of ,ha
country. This is a fact which Mr.
efahe has carefully concealed. ri
amounts to herd law, and no hair
splitting distinctions can convince in. |
teiligent men that 1t is not herd ,aw
Extending this argument a little
further, Mr.. Crane makes an eflart ~
establish the proposition that the lsas
ing OF land In large bodies viii not do
ler the actual settler from going into
ne regions covered by leases and tak.
'og up the land. The basis Of this
assertion Is that the law allows actnaI
settlers to take up leased land and mo,
mere are loo,oOo,o 900 acres OF unset,lod
ana In the West, OF which but AZ ooo
NV are school lands, and therefora ma
Easing OF the school lands will leavs
'o'oo'oS acres unoccupied and subject
= ss'''ement' The first hypothesis
nat actual settlers are not d,s,nr,.l

As explained In another

Attorney. General Templeton In Defense
of The Lease Law.

h'oiiN, July 10.
To the Editor OF the Gazette.
A great deal has been written
about the effect and meaning
of the lease law, about wha,
1t is and about what 1t is not. | think
u years enforced observation and study
of the meanings and workings of the
law has, in a measure, qualified me to
tell something about 1t, what 1t Is and
what it is not. 1 am not guilty of
very great assumption when say that
| have had the chance to know as much
about 1t as some others who write let
tiers and who make speeches about it.
l have had something to do with its
execution and enforcement, aud its
practical working, and l know some
thing of the views of it held by others
with whom am associated in its exc
cution. 1t can he stated In few
words what the lease law Is in its prac-
tical working, and it is only with
Its practical working that any

They Must Have whisky.

One Of the meanest schemes to smuggle
whisky which has ever been known has
inst been discovered, it is said, in Miiwau-
kee. The prohibition law went into effect
in Iowa OH July Eth, and the railroad conf
panies have given notice that they will
not take for shipment into the State liz
uors of any kind. The scheme referred TO
has In view the swindling OF the railroad
companies, as well as the State officers. It
Is briefly this: \ well-known paper box
and novelty manufacturing firm of MIL

wholesale house for the manufacture OF
?,9O0 blank prayer-books. These are books
bearing all the external appearance of
prayer-books, beautifully finished, with

clasp, aud there is 4 neat glass bottle, fit-
ting the inside OF tue book perfectly. These
bottles will lie filled with liquor, the boxes

number OF weeks past the travelling rep
resentatives of the wholesale house from
which the order for the "prayer-books"
came have been taking orders in Iowa for
the books, and it is expected they will be
in great demand, unless the authorities
shall stop the fraud.

COMMUNICATED.

Nessrs. Editors.-It is gratifying to the
people of this end of the county and to
many others to learn that Mr.. Il. w. Lat
inner has announced himself as \ candidate
for the circuit c!erkship of this county.
He needs no recommendation to the voters
who know him personally, but as his &C.
cupation and close attention to business
have kept him from mingling with the
people Of the county more generally, it is
but just for those who know him init
mstely to assure others that he is worthy
Of their full confidence, and when they
favor him with their votes they will have
the satisfaction OF knowing that they are
aiding in placing a man in office who will
honor it and attend faithfully and impair
TALLY to its duties.
This portion Of the county has never
had man in said Office, and il is time that
it was favored in that way, considering
how faithful it has been in helping to
place in that position those who have held
it so long.
Mr.. Latimer is fully competent to fill
the office, and is not without experience
in that line of business. He has served
the Democratic party faithfully ever since
he has been voter, and hitherto has
asked nothing in return.

FRIENDS AND FELLOW CITIZENS or JEFFER-

ination Us representative in the next legisla-
ture OF the state. and do not feel 1t TO be my
duty 10 resist their appeals.
l think II the part OF wisdom not TO change
the representative every year, as by one session
the representative learns much that is useful to
him in future Legislation The knowledge OF pro-
ceeding and transaction OF business acquired
therein, fits him the better for the station to
which he is neutrality-suspicious. Is the best OF
teachers"
have the first censure to observe Of my votes
during the last session, and believe my con-
duct therein has met the views OF my consttu-
ents.
There Is one consideration which governs my
action not to increase the burthen Of the peo
pie. Myvote will be found recorded against the
Increase OF cents in the landed estate added by
the last legislature. / did not deem IL necessary
10 levy that tax, it was laid in order as under
stood to pay the appropriation, ~ part, OF build
ing OF the state House al CharlestOn-hesides
the money was borrowed from source that was
hot pressing for payment and the ordinary taxes
would IN few years siTlke OUT the deaiclency.
Republicans to Increase our taxes largely. There
were several efforts made 10y leading Republi-
cans in the House TO DO So but the democracy
voted a liberal sum as an appropriation to
Shepherd College, with which the trustees have
thoroughly repaired and elegantly painted the
building. The renovated building the old Court
House) is now IN ornament 10 Shepherdstown
and speaks we'll for the taste OF the citizens, be-
sides the gratifying intelligence Is received that
an increase OF eight during the last session Is
made To the graduates
1t is useless further to particularize my many
votes on sunt,ry subjects but this will say. my
best efforts were used 10 promote the DeDent OF
the people and TO advance the best interests of
the State; And IL nominated and reelected by
you shall promise not TO slacken my endeay-

by this renewed assurance OF Your confidence To
redouble my efforts in behalf Of the people.

FOR TE4E LEGISLATURE {!

To THE VOTERS OF JEFFERSON COUNTY:
lnasmuch as Sheplerdstown is entitled
to one Of the members of the Legislature
from this county, we would commend TO
the voters the name of JOHN III. little
to fill said position. He has done good
work for the party for the last 80 years,
during which time lie has been citizen
and identified with the interests Of the
people Of the county. He is heavy tax
payer, and has also been successful man
in business; and is therefore capable Of
attending to the business affairs of others.
He does not intend to force himself upon
the people, from the fact that he believes
the people should seek the man for the
office. We therefore hope that the voters
will cast their ballots for him ut the COM
ing primary elections, believing, If elect
eG, he will serve us as acceptably as any
man in the county.
