THE GAZETTE is sure II will satisfy
a demand on the part Of Gov. Hub
bard's friends throughout Texas by
the following information concerning
his movements. And there will go
out for him from the state, as well as
from Tyler, sincere wish for a pleas
ant life among the distant people
TO whom he goes and safe return
when his mission Is ended. In re-
sponse 10 this desire for information,
The GAzErTE's representative writes
as follows from Tyler:

Calling for Help.
Chicago Herald.


Now that the so-called Young De-
mocracy of Ohio have, through their
possession of the legislature and their
blind idolatry of Johnny Mclean,
brought their party into disrepute in
the state and made 1t well nigh inn
possible for 1t TO carry the election next
fall, they are calling Justify for Allen
G Thurman to be their candidate for
governor.
Judge Thurman will not heed them,
and he ought not to heed them. They
need an unmerciful drubbing, and the
Herald hopes the Republicans will
give IL to them. The coal oil Denioe.
racy OF Ohio is nothing but an organ
ization OF selfish spoilsmen seeking to
destroy where 1t cannot rule. II has
brought the party whose name IL has
taken In vain into disrepute, and has
made the state certainly Republican
for many years. 1t has pulled down
Thurman and Pendleton in order TO
elevate to some sort OF dime
museum conspicuity an Allen O.
Myers and John II Mclean. It de-
serves beating, and II will get IL.
Mr.. Thurman should he called 10
some honorable position Ia the nation.
al administration. but he should not
lend his time and strength 10 an eff.
fort to rehabiltate the organization OF
these local mercensrles. After they
have been whipped out, with some
creature OF their own at their head, Il
will be time enough for decent men Ia
come TO the front.

Fort Worthla Morals.

CleVeland'B maxim, 'IelI the
Truth" should be more generally
practiced. The Temperance Banner
says of Fort Worth:
The city OF saloons Ia city of
churches and Sunday-school work. So
far as we are able TO ascertain, there
are about eight or ten churches, and
between sixty and one hundred ga
looms. tbs said that 1000 of the o.
600 people who inhabit the city are
church-going people. As for the 90
900 they pass on to find en-
tertainment at the saloons, which
stand with open doors all Sunday or
at the race courses or shooting matches,
which are frequently in progress on
theh holy Sabbath day.
The above from the Banner is sim
ply slanderous. The people OF Fort
Worth AS rule are church-goers. But
say 1000 people, only, attend church,
will any sane person assert that the
whole of the remainder will be found
at places OF public amusement? We
suppose there are some sick people,
some old people, some babies, and some
lazy people who will neither attend
church nor the race course or saloons.
Mr.. Lemons will not benefit the tenn
perance cause by promulgating false
hood.
THE GAZETTE Is indebted TO the
Cleburne Chronicle for its defense of
Fort Worth against the slanderous
charge OF the Temperance Banner.
The Banners photographic falsehood
has escaped our attention. Misrepre.
sentation of Fort Worth is part OF the
daily food OF some Texas newspapers,
and II would be hope less undertake
ing to reply to all those who, from envy
or ignorance, Islander the people Of
this city. 1t would be strange, in
deed, II In city as populous and of as
rapid growth as Fort Worth, all forms
of wickedness should not find loca-
lion. But these do not give tone to
our society or reputation, only
so far rs envy or ignorance
may find circulation aud credence, In
Fort Worth there may be found to-day
as fine society IA can be seen In any
city In the Union, ~ much public
spirit, and rs much morality and re-
ligion. We venture the assertion that
the churches OF no city will show a
larger attendance OF young men and a
less number addicted TO intemperance
and immortality. There is less drunk.
enness and less drinking among the
bona fide residents OF this place than
one would believe who Is
not an eyewitness OF the
fact stated. The GAZETTE does
not know of one young man in all
this city who is given to drink, and
seriously questions whether any town
in the state can show resident popu.
lation as free from vices ~ are the
bona fide citizens of Fort Worth,
There are thirteen or fourteen
churches here and their congregations
will most favorably compare with
those OF any place for Number and de
youtness.
A city given over TO gambling,
drinking and other vices could moi
have become what the people here
have made of Fort Worth. The pro.
| gyess Of this city Is the best possible

Grant and Davis.


Those Southern men, few In number
and annually growing fewer in num-
Der, who are seized with spasms when
ever Southern man or newspaper
pays deserved tribute to Grant as
soldier and as an American, should
read the following from the Boston
Express. The nationality Of this land
is secured. The death Of Republican
Ism was the death of sectionalism and
the baleful influence Of the Radical
party no longer lives to promote sec
tional partyism. Men in North and
South have been looking through
glass discolored by Radical hate but
now they begin to see clearly. The
party that could do honor to Malone,
Key, Longstreet and Mosby, and
yet ostracise Gordon, Lamar and
Garland, has had its bold hy-
pocrisy exposed by Democratic
success; and men in the South and
men in the North, themselves true to
conviction, can recognize and appreci-
ate that devotion to principle which
gave life and property to the cause es-
poused from conviction. And the
brotherhood and the union which is
based upon respect and liberation will
be moro enduring than II marked by
distrust and intolerance. The words
Of this Massachusetts, paper put to
shame the pitiful sectionalism Of the
Mississippi Journal quoted by THE
GAZETTE few days since. The Bos-
ton Express says:
Jefferson Davis and Gen. Grant are
rapidly ekeing out their last rounds of
life rs we go To press. 1t Ia not un-
likely that before this issue of our pa
per reaches our readers, either or both
may no longer be among the living.
Many OF the papers of the country are
pregnant with eulogies OF Gen. Grant,
but comparatively small space is given
to MIR. Davis. Tue latter parsonage is
marked historical character in our
country, his reputation is national and
his abilities remarkable. Why should
he fail to be remembered In such SUI
preme hour as this? 1t Is true that he
was president OF the Confederacy, and
that he did all in his power to serve the
cause which he represented, but he
should be credited with high patriotic
purpose, and also with an honest desire
to do his best for what he believed to be
right and just for the South. That the
| South believed their cause TO be Just
has never been doubted by broad and
thoughtful minds. The people at that
section acted accordingly, and poured
out their blood as freely as IL 1t was
water. 1t is twenty years since this
war was over, and we can all afford to
charitably view the situation as it is
both North and South. AS United
States senator, Mr.. Davis won high
and deserved reputation. He was
the peer of Clay, Webster and CAL
houn. That he chung to the South at
the opening of the rebellion was nat
ural and inevitable. He could not
have done otherwise and have been an
honest patriot and sincere man. IL
Is not only well, but duty, to bear
these things earnestly in mind, as the
hero is passing his last hours on earth.
All OF us ought to be fair aud generous
and truthful enough to admit his
great talents, his inherent patriotism
and his sincere devotion to what he
believed to be the true interests of the
| people.

Those Democrats who oriticise the

office had been shaped by a sense OF

an emphasis OF Mr.. Cleveland's pur-
pose to reform the civil service. In
making Democratic administration
the instrument for carrying out
the public wishes for this re-.
form, Mr.. Cleveland does his
party as we'll as the country
a service. II this appointment shall
not result In attaching the mugwumps
permanently to the Democracy OF New

that this appointment did force the Re

are informed that some of our mer-
