THE DIsINEERIrED KNIGHT.
1t is imnossible to republisn in the
Times half the papers are saving in
condemnation of Senator Temple
HoustOn's course with reference to
the land board and the Greer county
monopoly. Only enough is quoted 10

classes OF men and in different parts
OF tho Stste.-lsan Antonio Times.
DUG HIS POLlTICAL GRAVE,
If Hon. Temple Houston had
dreamed OF the rasping he was LAYING
up for himself throughout Texas by
his onslaught on the land board, he
would have quietly sat down and med
itated awhile before he penned hia
"Dlsinherited knight" papers. In a,,.
dition to the haying he had already
suffered, San scinto veteran named
w. p. Iuber, of Grimes county, took
him up tho other day In o letter to the
Citizens of Texas and administered
another severe oastigation. An.

THE DOLLAR OF THE DADDIEs.
The South and West are vitality in
terested In this question; the people O!
these sections are virtually borrowers
and debtors, while the people OF Tbs
Northern and Eastern States have the
relation TO them of bankers and oredi
tors. Silver is constitutional money
and the States arc prohibited by the
Federal cons tuition from making any
other than gold and silver coin iege
tender, and IT can bs readily perceived
that 10 strike down one hall, or nearly
so, OF our metallic currsncies will 30 tC
abridge the pewers of the States on The
subject OF legal tender. IL would sub
ject tho people OF tho South and West

ever, Of bankers aud creditors OF an.

fair TO be tire lending ono before Cor,
