A BILL for the retirement of non. com.
missioned officers and enlisted men has
been recommended by the house commit
tee on military affairs. This is a com.
mendabie step, and such a bill certainly
ought to be passed. The object is to
mako a proper provision for the old sol.
dier, who has passed the greater part of
his life in the army. Thirty years will
probably be made the period of service to
entitle a private soldier or non.commis-
stoned officer to retirement and o pension.
The passage Of this proposed bill will not
entail much expense upon the govern.
ment as there are in the army only about
fifty enlisted men who have served thirty
years. 1t seems to US, however, that
twenty years would be q much better per-
iod of service, as the object of the bill
would then be surer Of accomplishment.
The purpose of tho bill ia to give greater
stability and . bettsr standing to the on.
listed man in the military service, by as.
surfing him that he will eventually he re-
warded with a suitable provision for his
old age. We're such q provision made, it
would 20 far to make our military service
an attractive one for respectable men, and
In this way to get rid of the disrepu able
characters who take the first opportunity
to desert. It is scarcely necessary to say
that dessrtion is not only q great loss 10

terial, but IL Is the source Of serious de.
moralization. The annual desertersfrom
army are between 5000 and 1000,
and any measure that would lessen this
number might well be considered an
economical one. But beyond the ques-
ton Of economy stands that Of justice, for

What a pity that Governor Tilden,

than when he withdrew from political
life four years ago. But so it is. To
use his own language, ''the democratic

Jefferson in his grave as to call upon me

A PREE.GRAssER
On the Speeches at Paris SATURDAY..

Oh the speeches at Paris Saturday.
PARIS, TEX Sept 81, 1884.
TO the Editor OF the Gazette.
We had grand Democratic rally
here yesterday. Speeches were made
by Senators Coke and MaXey and Hon
ID. b. Cnlberson, M. q. Last night
the toreh-llght procession was grand.
Speeches were made by Barney Gibbs,
Col. Chenoweth an d AR. Hare. They
were all good. Senators Coke and
MaNey doomed up ON national issues
connected with their work in the SEN
ate, giving heed TO the successful meas
ures adopted by the Democracy.
Hon. ID, Il. Culberson made a splen-
dld speech also. He said that the
corruption of the Republicans would
be righted by Rthe Democratic party.
lie said that revenue reform was one
of the planks in the Democratic plat
form and as all politicians had
something to say about ID
he would also. He favored
simply tariff without protection.
He paid n high tribute to the Green
back party and said IL was now the
same In principle rs the Democratic
party. He intimated that the Green
back party had accomplished good
but now that Ben Butler had been
stuck ON TO the tail end OF the Kite il
was almost without a leader. He said
that the party was pure party, full OF
pure motives. He had little or MOTH
ing TO say about Grover Cleveland. He
alluded 10 Jas. q, Blaine as n protec-
ttonionist, without an argument 10
sustain his idea.
Hon. Barnett Gibbs said but little
about the lease system. He seemed TO
wither under the pressure OF the PEG.
pies wishing 10 know some of his
views regarding Stree grass.n In
fact, Wash Jones Is feared bv the
lease-law advocates, and IL is wei rnat
they should fear. The lease law Is an
Imposition ON the people OF Texas.
Our Legislators must know that the
lease law must go by the demand Of
the tax payer. FREzs GRAssER.

The issue.

1t is good for the working men of
America that the tariff issue has
come to the front, and that it will
be kept to the front all through
the coming presidential campaign.
1t is good for labor in all forms, in
the field and in the wOrkshOp,in the
lofts under the roof Of the tallest
building, and in the mines hun
dreds of feet under ground. And
what the working men of this
State need most is political educa-
ton of the right kind, not such as
designing politicians care for, but
such as intelligent citizens can
easily acquire by using their own
senses.
The tariff issue will compel dis
cussion and by the comparison of
facts bearing upon the condition of
labor, much light will be shed
where light is greatly needed.
Now the issue is Protection or
Free TRADE. which shall it be?
That is the living question and this
question every working man must
answer for himself.
Industry cannot live in doubt.
-Four years of tariff agitation have
shaken confidence, arrested enter
prise, closed many shops, and
thrown thousands of men out of
employment.
This agitation was forced upon
the people by Democratic Congress-
men, representing four.flths OF
the Democratic party. No one can
deny that.
The Democratic Convention will
adopt a platform; but, on this
question at least no platform is
necessary-the record of both par
ties is as plain as a pikeStaff.
The Republicans are, have al
ways been, will always be, "a unit
for protection. Four-flths of the
Democrats have repeatedly declar-
ed, Protection is a Republican
policy.-Ha. Seaport.
