DIR. F. E. DANIELS, editor of the
Courier-Record of Medicine, publica-
ton office at Fort Worth, has sold hi
interest in that journal, and will issu
in the city of Austin, July 10, the first
number of Daniels Texas Medical
Journal. The Courier-Record, under
DR.. Daniels editorship, has attained
considerable distinction, and the Med
ical Journal, it is promised, will have
his more laborous attention. Medical
men, all over the State and through
out the Southwest, will no doubt put
themselves down on the subscription
lists for the first number, so as to have
a valuable series complete.

SAYS the Limestone New Era: "Ths
various newspaper comments and the
criticisms of the News on Judge Ter
rell's address on corporations and their
influence on the body polite, shows
that it is at least food for thought, and
in that respect differs from the usual
wordy deliveries on such occasions.
The truth is A. w. Terrell is one of
the brainiest men in Texas. More
than this, he is cultivated scholarly
gentleman, whom to know is pleas
ure. His address, 1t is to be hoped,
will arouse the public mind to the
dangers that threaten the government
from corporate power"

SENATOR SHERMAN is said to be-

the Nicaragua undertaking claim that
they will have fewer obstacles to oyer

A PATENTED MACHINE was on ex-
hibition at New Orleans for freeing
the fibre of hemp and flax from the
woody substance which it is desirable
to separate from it, which gave the
greatest satisfaction. The ramie plant
taken green from the field, leaves
and all, was perfectly Invested of
everything but the clean and perfect
fibre ready for use. The dry stalks of
the ram1e and jute were decorticated
with equal success, There appears to
be no doubt that this machine will
lead to very valuable results by cheap
ening the raw material for the exile
industries. The ramie plant may be
grown in great perfection in Texas.

WHILE it is told District Attorney
Jack Evans is ready to yield up his
office head for decapitation, it may be
said of him, though having many enc

that he has made one of the most
efficient and able district attorneys
that ever held Office. Those who know
him best, too, say that under his ap-
parently harsh exterior there is any
amount of generosity and kindness.

IT is a good while yet before new
United States senator is to be elected
in Indiana, but, as we see demonistra-
ted In Texas, this is no reason why the
aspirants are not diligently engaged
in setting pegs for the contest. Gov.
Gray is supported by Vice President
Hendricks and his wing of the Indi-
ana democracy, while "Uncle Joe" Nc
Donald has the backing of Senator
Voorhees, and his followers. Both are
seeking to enlist the sympathy of the
administration and both think they are
sure of the active assistance of the
president. 1t is very certain, that
when the time comes when the admin
istration could be of practical service,
the president will discreetly decline to
take any part in the fight. A civil
service reformer must necessarily
practice civil service reform.
"A good many Democrats are Dor
rowing trouble, in advance, regarding
the possibility that appointees under
the present administration may fail
to secure confirmation when the next
congress meets. The Washington
correspondent of the Courier Journal
treasures them on good grounds.
Since Grant went out Republican
presidents have found no diff
Guilty in borrowing Democratic
senators on test votes for
c6nfrmation of Republicans, be-
cause Democratic Senators found that
they had no difficulty in borrowing q
Republican President when they
wanted to provide for brothers, cous-
ms and uncles. Surely if Democratic
Senators could be thus captured by
Hayes, Garfield and Arthur, there
viii be found Senators of no less
easy virture on the Republican side of
the chamber to surrender themselves
TO the new Democratic President.

AN illustration OF the reputed hun
ger and thirst of democrats for office
and< eeretary Manning's alacrity in
gratify4A0 the same, about which so
much has been said by the Republican
press, is found in the fact that sixty
clerkships in the treasury department,
becoming vacant from various causes
since Mr.. Manning assumed charge.
are to be left vacant, on the ground
that the interest of the servicedoe not
require them to be filled. 1t must be
remembered that republican admin
istration considered the places neces.
sary for the reward of worthless party
strikers.

FERDINAND WARD has at last been
indicted for grand larceny. Other
indictments are expected to follow,
and it is possible, though not quite
probable, that he may be lodged in
the penitentiary, where he properly
belongs. Ever since his arrest
Ward has been living in gorgeous
style in Ludlow street Jail, and it is
high time that he was placed upon the
same footing with other criminals.
The specific offense charged in the
present indictment is borrowing all
the money from the Marine National
Bank, giving valise full of United
States bonds and securities valued at
$1,500,OOO, and then afterwards carry
ing off the securities. If that is not a
clear case of stealing, then the law
lexico nneed revising.

Itself in the increasing upwillingness

remain his obedient subjects; in mat

to act for themselves. 1t must not be
