II seems ridiculous 70 SEQ Georgia

per acre, and have them actually har-

sHRIvELED PATRIOTISM.
II the Democracy OF Texas Is con-
tered In the seven senators who voted
against the prohibitory amendment,
then the cardinal principle of Democ-
racy-the right 10 be heard-has
dwindled to small sized plant, and
should be pulled up by the roots.

A QUESTIONABLE ADVERTISEMENT.
1t will require several thousand .rain
loads of stone TO build our new state
capital, and will it not be fine adver-
tlsement OF Texas TO see day after day,
for a year or two, long freight trains
bringing stone from Indiana here,
when in Eve miles OF Austin Is plenty
Is an almost inexhaustibie quantity of
the finest granite p Fairfield Recor-
der.
BUSINESS BEFORE TITLES,
1t has been often and fully demon
strated that man may be good
soldier but poor civil officer, and the
days of the "war record" are num-
bered. The people are awakening TO
the fact that their interests lie in
choosing their officials from business
not sentimental standpoint. The
people do not go to q blacksmith to
have a watch repaired, simply because
the blacksmith was a good soldier or
officer in either the Northern or South
ern army. All else being equal, the
people may indulge their sentimen-
tality, but in these days man must
have something more than war
record to ride into office on, and pros
pective candidates should snake a
note on't."- Gainesville Hesperian-
Times.
GET THEE A WOODEN HEAD.
Our esteemed misunderstanding x-
change, the Galveston Tribune, must
have been still feeling the effects OF
the Fourth, or intended perpetrating
hoax in the above paragraph. The
Dallas Times may be the Christian
Observer or the Herald Of Zion in dis
guise, but il is not g prohibition paper,
save that it advocates prohibition in
Fort Worth because in its unselfish-
ness 1t wants our folks to come to
Dallas to drink their beer. The Mail
regrets very mach the inability Of the
Tribune to CONJECTURE what these
two editors mean" Go to. Get thee
to q wood turner and buy nice new
wooden head and then conjecture
what these two editors mean.-L Fort
Worth Mail.
RAPE IN TEXAs.
Rape in Texas will be put down. The
papers Of the State, one and all, that we
nave seen, commend the citizens who
hung the Eikhart rapists last week,
and one of the leading dailies declares
that it was no mob, but was an assem-.
bly, of good citizens that did the work.
This has been the doctrine OF the
North Texan for years, and We are glad
to know that sentiment Is being
worked mp that will not blde the slow
and uncertain process OF the law in

party or parties, make thorough inves-
tigation, and when guilt Is established
hang the brute or brutes to the nearest
tree. Do this quietly, orderly, and
show that you mean to protect your
homes and your women.-(N North
Toxin.
MARSHAL CABELL.
Gen. Caben has been promoted. He
has been made marshal-not Of France
but of the Northern District of Texas.
The Democrat congratulates the old
and tried Democrat, who has held
many posts OF honor, both aa n military II,a
AS TO his Democracy, mono can doubt;
and his experience in the
old army as quartermaster
with that of the same nature in
the Confederacy, before he was made
brigadier- general, renders him pecu-
liarly fitted to manage the affairs OF
an office requiring such close atten-
ton to minute and strict observance
of account detail. General Cabell
will enter upon his new duties with
the heartfelt sympathy of his many
his assistants a corps of Democrats
who will neither distress the people
by their exactions nor insult them by
their arrogance Dallas Democrat.
A BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION.
None but thorough business man
should become governor Of Texas
Houston Post.
What the Post says is true. Texas
wants no political administration, but
q business direction of its affairs. The
administration of Cleveland Is emil
nently business administration, and
already the good effects may be seen
in a diminished partisanship. The
governorship of Texas should not be
used in barter for other political places,
State and national. If the people are
wise, they will insist upon the nomi-
nation of man for governor
who aspires to be governor and moth
ing else; who does not want to be gov
ernor in order that he may boost him
self or some one else into the United
States Senate; who has q practical
knowledge of affairs and the expert
anca rennisite to rive that wledp e
