Getting Warm at Galveston.

GALVESTON, Nov.2.-The political in
terest is looking up in the vicinity of
Galveston at present. Until within the
past ten days the state and congress.
sional campaign, so far as Galveston
city was concerned, was dull and unin.
teresting. All the big guns seemed
bent on neglecting Galveston, or using
the Oleander City as sort OF
summer resort; good place to
run into during the heat OF
campaign and obtain little needed rest
with sniff of salt air thrown in, and
the favored sons ceased to be politicians
when once they reached the Island

Education In Texas.

WASHINGTON, D. C,-March 25.-
Senators Maxey and Coke to-day spoke
against the bill making national ap-
preparation for the education of white
and colored children, which bill is now
before the senate. MaXey opposed the
bill on the grounds of expediency. He
thought every state could do better
without an artificial stimulous, and
that was what was provided by this
bill. Texas made an impartial provis-
ion for the education of her colored and
white children alike in separate
schools. He could not, with sincerity
and justice to to his state, say Texas
was not able to educate her children.
The state of Texas was abundantly
able to support her own children, and
he could not, therefore, conscientious
y ask national aid in that work. He
had heard the senator from Ohio
(Sherman) whose state lately received
a large donation from the nation, say
he would not trust the south with
this money. Maxey thought, so far
as his state (Texas) was concerned, it
would be time enough to cast that up
to her when she asked for aid. The
people, both colored and white. ought
to be educated, but each state ought
to educate its own people.
Coke also spoke highly in favor of
the Texas school provisions, and also
opposed the bill.

BRUEGGERHoFF, Tex, March "a
The old story, yet new as an occur
renee in this section, comes to us to-
day of the robbery of Mr.. George
Draper, at his home IN the mountains,
three miles west of here. The pre-
sumption on the part of the two men
who did the robbing was that Mr..
Draper had sold and delivered a lot of
stock that day. In this, however
they were mistaken, as the stock,
though sold, was not to be delivered
and paid for until the next day. Had
the robbers been better posted, and
made their visit one day later, they
would have obtained between $500
and $500. However, S., Winchester
rifle, six-shooter and a good supply of
tobacco was all they succeeded in get
ting off with.
A peep behind the scenes reveals the
fact that prominent official OF Will
hanson county has both eyes drawn
to focus on Terrel's place in the SEN
ate, while the balance of the crew, at
Georgetown, will remain placid in the
hands of their friends.
Whatever may be the ultimatum OF
the fence cutting troubles, and the &C
ton taken by the democratic leg1slat-
ure on the subject, it is pretty conclu--
sive that the people feel outraged, and
that rigid adherence to the policy
that has most effectively paral-
lied both labor and capital is
not the thing wanted by the
people of this state. Texas is
broad, and comprehends multiplicity
of interests, all of which should be
made promotive of one general pros
perity, and the men or parties that
fail to recognize this fact, had Just as
well emigrate to country where
their connivance at wrong may be
INDUCED with less of popular disfavor
and injury to the developments OF an

ton.
Brueggerhoff has more of the ap-
pearance of a fr5t-clas cow ranch

Labor Troubles,

PITTsBURG, Pa, March 25.-A
Port Richmond dispatch says the coal
troubles at the Schuylkill, Lehigh,
Wyoming and Lackawana regions are
becoming even worse than have been
previously reported. The continued
suspension of operations, and the half
pay plan that has been enacted by the
leaders of the combination, is creating
intense dissatisfaction and murmur-
ing among all classes in the mines.
Operators in the Schuylkill district
and malcontent colonies have met in
secret convention and formed a pro-
tective union similar to that of the
old miners and laborers, which violent
associations were disrupted during
the labor troubles in 1876. Five ennis
saries have been sent to the other
great mining cities, and strong move
ments will be made to secure the Co
operation and assistance of all work
ing men employed in mines through
out the anthracite fields of operatives
in behalf OF the working men.
