The author of "Dorcas," who also
wrote "Arius the Libvan." and who is
now known to be Mr.. Nathan Kouns.
lawyer Of jefferson City, comes to his
own desense in The Continents month.
ly edition for June for his free use in
his story, which treats of the early
Christian Church.. Of the miraculous
raising of the dead at the hands of the
Apostles Of the primitive Church. lie
insists that the Christians were granted
the power of raising the dead so long as
they maintained their simple worship
and their community of goods and in
terests; but that they lost this and
other privileges when they accepted the
protection of the Emperor Constantine
and allied themselves with the political
powers of the earth.
We hope Mr.. Kouns will continue to
work this rich vein. No student of
history can for a moment honestly
claim that the Christian Church of to-
day is the same rs the Primitive Churcl,
in either creed or practice.

THE TICKET,


The Republican National Convention
finished up it's work in good style on
Friday last by nominating James G..
Blaine, for President, and Gen. John
A. Logan, for vice President. 1t is
about the finest combination Of states
mHnship, personal magnetism, univer-
sal popularity and civi! and military
glory, as embodied in candidates, whicl,
lean people. Blaine, rs Il civic hero
and leader, and Logan rs military
hero and Il man Of large experience in
public life, make up Il ticket which will
meet nearly every demand of the cam
paign.
For the first time since Grant was
first ominated, the will Of the people
us previously expressed. has been ex.
ecuted by i Republican National Con
vention. Blaine has been the choice OF
the Republican voters three times, and
the third time is the charm.
We need not say that we are well
pleased. The ADVANCE has been
booming Blaine for weeks. Blaine was
our choice ut Cincinnati when Hayes
was nominated; Blaine was our choice
four years ago 1T Chicago when Gar.
field was nominated, and Blaine is cur
choice to-day.
We have been and are still for Blaine
because he is u broad -:uage statesman
and comes nearer representing the
whole American it;pa and tie whole
American people than amy man in the
Repnh'lca party. lie will not be the
President of any one faction, rolitical.
social or religious. nor of amy one i'll
lercst. Blaine will be the President Of
the whole American people.
EX-GOl. D.lyIS.
Whenever the name Of G.. Il. DAVIS
has been mentioned for the L. :. Sen
ate. the ADVANCE has spoken in clear
aud decided toI.cS in his favor We
have believed that his place Was in
national politics, and that States, es-
E't'''N N'tIiS 'IiFS IiNC NluI;tSolit,
should p.l: her best minds to the fore.
No man in The State therefore can b.
more gratit-d than the editor Of the
ADVANCE ut the s,lr,u!iu impression
made hy Davis in the Chicago Conven
ton His speech Secondi,,g the uomi
nation OF Blaine is pronounced the
best Of the many speeches made III sup.
port of the several candidates.
The name Of Davis has been placed
before the country. lie has taken a
long step forward into National politics
where he belongs. We hope now to see
him raised to-. Cabinet position, and
hat Minnesota will then put linn im
the Senate and keep him there till the
nation needs him else where.
We have had our eye on G.. X. Davis
ever since he delivered his address on
the ''Feudal Systtm,' outlining issues
which have since come prominently
into politics, and everywhere, in poll
tics, philosophy, literature, ETC., we see
that he is a man of Ideas, and that no
man in the west has so distinct and SO
broad grip OH all living questions as
Davis.

TIE CROPS.


CLEBuRSE, June 23.-lSpecial. The
absence of the now busy farmers from
the city and the consequent dizziness of
times indicate n bountiful harvest of
crops and n lively business later
in the season, The nice
shower of rain that we had
few days since, was just the thing for
the growing crops, and of itself, without
future rain, insures fair crop OF corn.
Small grain il being harvested with all
the dispatch possible, and is yielding
well. A large quantity of oats will nee
essarily he lost, owing to their having
fallen Ia the ground, rendering II imprac-
ticable to gather them. The universal
amount of labor required to gather. the
immense small grain crop has obliged
some farmers, already behind, to throw
out patches of their corn and cotton and
leave them to the grass. So intent are
the farmers on saving their immense
crop of small grain, and so
impressed was one our most
popular divincs with such probability,
ON yesterday in the course of his sermon,
he stated that he had but little doubt of
the fact that no less than ten or dozen
harvesting machines inside of johnson
county were then ut work gathering
grain.

DULY CONSTITUTED ORGAN.

The Fort Worth Gazette has been
pointedly charged with being the organ
of the free-grass movement. The
charge has been made often and in vari-
Gus quarters. That paper has not de-
MED the charge; on the contrary, IL con-
tinues vigorous defense of the free
grass party. Under the circumstances,
IL can only he accepted as fact that the
Gazette is in full accord with the FREQ
grass sentiment in the fullest sense of
the term; that il is the chosen medium of
EXPRESSION for that sentiment. In the
contest between the Democracy and the
rcbellious wing thereof in Northwest
Texas, the Gazette is TO be taken rs the
spokesman of the latter The press and
people of the State know where to look
for premonitory signs of the threatened
holt Mt Houston. Taking the above
statements as fixed facts, the Gazette IL
called upon to answer the following
questions: What proportion TO the
strictly agricultural area of the state
does the grazing area bear? What pro
norton does the population Of the
agricultural area bear to the
nopulation Of the grazing area?
I'm what state of the Union does the free
grass policy prevails Is there any adj
yanced or civilized country on the globe
where the frec-land policy exists? Does
the Gazette pretend to say that II pre-
fers n wilderness with no exclusive en-
iovment, no society, no Inducements to
improvements, TO the theory OF cwDer-
shin in fee simpler. Do-s 1t held tiis, :he
th,srv. of free occupation Of territory
tends TO conserve morality, law and gov
eminent, Does 1t hold that the theory
of free-gfass COMFORTS with tho
genius OF civilized governments?
Knowing, rs 1t is bound TO
know. that marvellous immigration
is morning into Northwestern Texas,
will II admit that freeland policy
assures safe and satisfactory homes to
actual settlers?
The position of the Gazette involves
both presumption and assumption. its

part of the vineyard. business is dull,
which has cause. Health, peace, quiet

prevails. Brotherly love and human
kindness predominatcs.
Our locality has, so far, been exempt
from fence-cutting troubles. Thefts,
murders and the higher grades of mis-
demeanors have generally given us the
go-by. Religiously and morally our
population will compare favorably with
West Texas civilization. Politically we
are somewhat mixed up: The Green
back element and sore-hcaded hide
pendcntism, which have heretofore fused
under the lead OF the supposed-to-bc-
invincible Wash Jones, has kept the
mouths of our steel-pointed Democrats
shut SO long that they have almost lost
the ring and play of the party whip.
Better things are hoped for in the near
future. A mans politics should be as
sound as his religion. The campaign
was opened here last Tuesday evening
by an address from Capt. j. V. Virgins,
