THE TARIFF BUGABOO.

There is a good deal of private
discussion and speculation, says 8
Washington special to the Calves.
ton News, in congress now, in
both houses, as to the position the
Democrats shall take on the tariff
question in the presidential cam
paign. When congress first
convened the friends of tariff re
form were outspoken, but it has
since been developed that the par,
ty can not be held together upon
such a basis. Mr.. Randall is not
alone in an outspoken determine,
ton not to support such a policy,
although recognized as the leader
It has also become certain that q
sufficient detection from the Re-
publican ranks could not be secur.
ed to secure majority vote on
real revenue reform bill. 1t would
seem that after all the tariff re.
form is in the hands of the politi.
clans and not of the people. If a
majority of the people of the Uni
ted States demand q reform in the
tariff and a reduction In the reven.
ne collected by the government
they should make them well
known to the politicians, and in
future elect no man to congress
without knowing his exact posi-
ton on the tariff question.

PRESIDENTIAL CHANCES.

Mr.. Forney, representative from
Alabama, has been interviewed by
the Houston Posts Washington
correspondent touching tho CON-
ing presidential race. He thinks
that Mcdonald has already been
killed and that Mr.. Randall is now
the strongest man. Randall, he
says, could hold Pennsylvania and
would carry all the doubtful states,
but is Unavailable on account of the
opposition in the South. Morrison
and Carlisle will both be left out
on account of the opposition. Mr..
Forney thinks that a dark horse
will be introduced in the race be-
cause the party Is unwilling to
center on any one of the promi-
nent men named as possible candi-
dates. He mentions Mr.. Flower,
of New York, as a probable dark
horse. Every politician seems to
have his own ideas of the coming
race and it is not at all likely that
Mr.. Forney's opinion is of more
value than that of any other con-
gresham who is willing to air his
individual views. The Republi-
cans are IN about the same politi-
cal middle regarding candidate
that the Democrats are in.

NEWSPAPER ISTAT7STTCS.

Referring to the quarrel now 60
ing on between the News and the
Post, the Dallas Herald gives
some interesting newspaper sta
tistics. 1t compliments the two
journals named by saying that no
paper outside of Texas in cities of
even twice our size, tender such
magnificent, newsy sheets as do
our Texas journals. The two pa
pers issued in the two cities named
are the equal of any journal pub
lished anywhere in the South, and
far exceed many in several cities
of larger size. New York with a
population of 100000 has only
five morning dailies, or one to
every 100000. Philadelphia with
population of 100000, has but
three, or one to every 100000.
Baltimore with population of
400, 900 people, has but two. Chi
cago with 100000, has but three
morning journals. Cincinnati with
300, 900, has but two. st. Louis
with over 100000, has but two.
New Orleans with 100000, has but
two. Hundreds of papers have
been started in those cities but
nearly all have failed. Houston
and Galveston combined have only
about $4,000 people and the con-
clusion arrived at by the Herald
is, that taking the figures given
above, a population of 10000 is
not sufficient to support two such
journalc as the News and Post,
and that sooner OF later one of
them must fail. The fttest usual
ly survives, which is that one, is a
question that time alone can solve,
though every one may have his
own opinion. AT present there is
great rivalry between Dallas and
Fort Worth and it may truthfully
be said that the morning papers of
both places ejournals that would
be highly ereditable in cities of
$4,000 or $4,000 population, while
the population of Dallas and Fort
Worth combined is now perhaps
about $4,000. Texas is u young
and growing state and with her
numerous small cities and grow
ing towns may be able to support
large dailies in cities that are not
large enough to support them
themselves. The truth is, says
the Herald, the newspapers of
Texas are ahead oftheir towns and
populations.

The ladies OF Berlin are painted
IN most unflattering colors by M.
Vasili in his paper on Berlin so.
ciety in the present number oil
the Nouvelle Revue. As gen.
eral rule, he says, the Berlin wo-
men of the upper classes neither
reads nor works nor occupies her
self in any useful way. She pass
es her existence in gossip and in
the frivolitIes of the toilet. she
has not two serious ideas in her
head, nor two elevated feelings
in her mind. Her preferences are
vulgar. her influence Insignificant.
She lacks grace, education and
tact. She tries to ape French
women as well as she can; but
she only succeeds in reproducing
their defects. 1t is impossible to
make her converse, so little does
she know OF what is going on in
the world SO completely is she
absorbed in admirIng herself and
criticising her rivals. The moral
ity of the married ladies' is. &C.
cording to M. Vasili, no higher
than the standard presented by
the French novel. In short, Ber-
lin societyhas, if we are to ac-
cept this account of it, all the
voices Of the French society of
the last century, without the re-
deeming wit and grace.

Now the Galveston News and
Houston Post are coming in for q
fair and well-merited share of re.
buke from their brethren of the
press for their violation of jour
nalistic amenities in making a wal
fare on each other. 1t sets a very
bad example for other newspapers
of the state, and goes to show that
they do not practice what they
preach, especially the News, which
has time and again cautioned the
young papers not to engage in
quarrels with each other.

ANLNDEPENDENT PRESS.

The San Antonio Light says it
is difficult to conceive that the
Light can belong to the Republi-
can party and yet be entirely in
dependent in its comments on men
and measures. Such a thing is
within the range Of possibilities,
but a vast majority of partisan pa
pers are strongly inclined to view
tho men and acts of the other par
ty from partisan standpoint. 1t
is possible for Republican paper
to see the faults, failings and
shortcomings in its own party,
but usually it is disposed to con-
denim its misdeeds, and the same is
usually true ola Democratic paper
when criticising the acts of its
party. ALI honest newspapers, no
matter what political cause they
espouse, should be perfectly indie
pendent and should criticise all
acts of the party, as such, and pub
lie officials freely and impartially.
When men are elected to public
Office they usually get majority
of the vote polled, and are regard
ed as the choice of the majority,
but the minority is not deprived
of any rights before the law; the
laws are made for the people and
by the people without any regard
to their political preferences. A
very large majority of the state
laws have no party significance
whatever, and no party issue or
party principal is involved in
them. Hence all officers, from
constable up should be held to. a
strict accountability for the faith
full discharge of his duties and the
press should criticise their official
acts freely and impartially. The
same rule should hold good re-
garding party affairs and in this
respect the press should be indie
pendent Party principles and
party acts are two separate and
distinct things. Men elected to
official positions sometimes do
things that are contrary to the
fundamental principles of the par
ty. Honesty and efficiency in Off
Gals is cardinal principle in both
the Democratic and the Republi-
can parties. The Republican par
ty has had control of the govern
ment since 1861; it has been very
efficient in maintaining itself in
power, in fact it has been wholly
inscriptions, as the records show,
but as for honesty it has been the
exception not the rule. An indie
pendent press should hide nothing
and if there be any rascally Demo-
Gratis in Office they should be ex-
posed and turned out of Office, bag
and baggage. In the language OF
the New York Sun, "Turn the ras-
calls out"

Of string beans. 1901 900 cans of

to take the lead of all her sister
states in this growing industry.

and oysters she seems determined
to soon become mistress OF the
markets of the world.
