IN THE INTEREST OF PROFESSIONAL
IL lIiMUNY.

The Houston Post oil yesterday says IL
"h 9 instructed its Galveston correspond.
en- to look into that bulldozirg business
aud then lock out for tqua lei" The same
| issue OF the Post that filings out that para
graph, which in the light OF recent c'rcum-
stances seems tnged with something oil
the splenelic, bristled with Geographic dis-
| patches, associated press and specials from
every portion Of the state and the country,
With communications, special and regular
correspondence, superior editorials, etc. +,
all OF which not only were Of exceeding
interest and Of precise appropriateness, but
which made 1t the equal OF almost any paper
In tue United States. Now, We respectfully
III ;gest to the Post to don't do it." We
mean the bulldozlng, squalling business.
Tbs Post a. newspaper is a credit, not
on y to Houston and Texas but TO the
country, whilst Its mechanical makeup aud
general appearance capture the eye at once.
This being true, We hope to be pardonsd
for the sincere suggestion that its columns
will not be suffered to be contamin ated by
illuminating items and comments, unin-
teresting TO the general public. 1t recently
made serious mistake. in our iudgme Mt,
and We candidly and promptly so expressed
ourselves. We arc all liable to error.mak-
ing, and We have eli ct some time stood
committed, and time alone had TO heal
what accident or imprudence produced. A
further editorial allusion, Beyond the one
article published by the Galvsst IN News
to "the late unpleasantness," is TO be
highly approved. The discreet silence o.
the Post isalso to be commended. The News
has had its share Of most favor
able notice, and the Post therein
has been severely rasped. A
l,sson has been taught and learned rot
only by the participants themselves but by
the whole press OF the state. Now, let the
matter cease with al OF Us; lot us refer to 4.
silence It's batteries in it's other columns,
and let the Post do the same thing. We
arc proud Of both these papers. They are
splendid specimens. worthy OF the pride OF
all Texas. There should be no more hostl
ity between the two business enterprises
than are between two banking or grocery,
or hard ware or dry goods, or other business
frme OF the two respective cities. Instead
OF quarrelling or saying irritating things
OF each other through their columns,
let the space be devoted to what more dis
'inctly interests the paying subscriber and
the circulation will not be thereby at all
lssseDed. We do want to zee the reign OF
good fellowship among our Texas frater-
lily.

GOHSIEANA.

CoRsIcANA, May 20.-[Special.l l-Colonel
Elliott, the commissioner in.chief to the
Worlds exposition, spent the day in this
city yesterdsy conterring with our lead ing
citizens on the subject OF the great fair next
fall. He has started movement for the
organization on tomorrow week of coun-
ty society, through which our people can
procure all necessary information as TO ex-
hibits, and confer with each other as to
what shall be sent from Navarro. Tho ap-
propration made by the legislature Is en-
tirely inadequate, only $4,000 being left
for operations after the salaries and the
building are paid for. Scores OF people will
send forward articles through responsible
county societies which would not be sent
without such information and stimulation
as the commissioner thus proposes, Besides
when an interest is thus aroused where
the people see what can be done in the
line of fine exhibit, these societies, by "a
tax of only ST. or So apiece OF the citizens or
the membership, which will thus supple
ment sufficiently, he thinks the small
