hold this is nation, and nation
which is deeply interested in the welfare,
happiness, and prosperity of every citi-
zen who lives within Its limits. Last
year we had flood along the borders of
the Mississippi river. Congress gener-
ously appropriated money for that pur-
pose, Republican President signed the
bill, a Republican Congress made the
appropriation, and Republican Secre-
tary of War sent thousands of rations
and thousands of tents, to feed and shell
ter the people of the South who were
suffering from that great flood. Here is
a flood that has devastated, as has been
remarked on the floor of this House, a
region of country 200 miles in length.
Indiana is interested; Ohio is conoerned;
Pennsylvania is affected; West Virginia
is injured. so too is Kentucky. Now, in
the name of IIeaven-not in the name OF
the Constitution, but in the name of that
sweet. broad, rainbow-robed charity,
which would make us brighter, better
and more generous men, let us make this
appropriation.

sufferers from the flood in the Ohio

State rights was quite happy and

Mr.. Bedford: Much as / deplore this

made homeless hundreds of thousands of
people, much as regret human suffering

the House on the fact we have now an

THE homestead laws of Texas consti-
tute the bedrock Of her prosperity and
have drawn thousands of families into
the State. When families have homes,
exempt from forced sale, they make bet

Gazette is ''bitinga file" in assailing the
homestead laws; they will never be re-

IT is singular fact that in the United
States alone, of all civilized nations,
journalistic and literary work and sue
cess should be popularity regarded as
constituting species of disqualification
for public employment. In France, both
Guizot and Theirs began life as editors,
yet they rose to be Prime Ministers, and
Theirs was President of France under
most trying circumstances, and betrayed
no incompetency. In England, Macauly,
although an author, was one of the best
debaters in Parliament, and held a seat
in the ministry. Gladstone was an
author almost in the years Of adolescence,
and has never relinquised the habit of
writing for the leading magazines upon
topics which stirred the popular mind to
its deepest recesses, but he has several
times filled the post of Prime Minister
and is conceded to be a first class
speaker. Disraeli, his great rival, was
not only an author but the author of
novels, but this did not prevent his
being Prime Minister But in the United
States editors and authors are ignored
when political leaders are to be selected
or cabinets are to be made up. Noodle,
with money to back his pretensions,
easily captures a seat in the Senate or in
the cabinet. This exclusion is not con
fined to federal offices, but is applied in
mere State matters. Editors are most
unjustly disrated in matters outside Of
their profession, although they furnish
all the materials used by the politician;
in every campaign and are the pioneer:
Of improvement and progress.

The demand for my fertilizers has increased
from year 10 year, until from the manufactu re
and sale of few hundred tons in 1870, IL
now amounts to many thousands OF tons man
ufactured and sold annually. l deem this the
most substantial proof Of the estimation in
which my fertilizers stand with the largest
and most practical farmers Of the country. In
every section where my fertilizers have ever
been introduced the demand has increased
steadily from year 10 year, new territory Is
opened up each year, and wherever introduced
never fails to gain friends, who, when they
have tried it alongsideiof any Of the many
brands of fertilizers now placed upon the
market, decide that the best is the cheapest in
the end, and buy regularly from year to year
! need only assure my customers that each
brand Of my fertilizers is made Of the same
materials which have been used for years, and
that they are prepared in the usual way and
under my personal supervision.
