The Malignant Ingenuity ola fiond
Could scarcely devise tortures more ex-
circulating than those to which the VIC
tim Of rheumatism, In the inflammatory
stage, Is subjected. II IL also dangerous
on account Of Its tendency toward the
heart and stomach. Among the benign
qualities OF Hostetter's stomach, Bitters,
is that OF expelllng from the circulation
those aorld impurities TO which the dis
ease Ia Attributable. Analysis proves
that. In eases OF rheumatism, the kid
neys fail to eliminate these impurities
from the blood. The Bitters, by stlmu-
latlng these organs TO activity. enuOles
them TO perform this all-important func-
tion, and, therefore. averts the disease
or remedies II Mt the outset. The func-
lions OF digestion, and secretion OF bile
by the liver, are also heslthfully stimu-
lated by the Bitters, which conquers
dyspepsia and liver complaint, and REM
edies fever and ague, bilious remittent
and other ailments of malarlal birth. IL
is also the leading tonic OF the age.

THE El Paso Herald wants to have the
word Texas" spelled "Tehss," assert
ing that It thus would conform with the
Spanish pronunciation Of the word. The
original Spanish spelling of "Toxas"
was, and In most cases now is, "rejas,"
and lie pronounced with heavy gutteral
sound of the VI" that does not exist In
the English language, and which can
not be substituted by giving the "h"
the proper sound in the word. 1t Is
preferable by far to have It where 1t
now Ia, and continue to call II Texas,
the State that so nobly won It's indie
pendence.

GOVERNOR IRELAND splits hairs when
he says that the Attorney General Of
the United States was appointed by the
President, and directly under bis orders;
In Texas the Attorney General was
elected, and therefore he (Ireland), could
not order him to bring suits against the
illegal enclosure Of the public lands.
The Governor could certainly make an
effort In the way OF n request or
through the action Of the Land Board,
which the Attorney General would not
cnre TO dIsregard.

The Washington Critic alludes to an
absent Texan in the following: "Colonel
Tom Ochiltree, who is now in New
York engaged In literary work, he says,
manages to get interviewed about every
time he runs across newspaper man.
The Colonel has just turned his brilliant
head Of hair upon the silver question,
and mounting the throne OF prophecy,
says there are millions OF people in the
South and West who are. as strongly
convinced that the silver dollar must
stay as were the Southern people con-
WINGED that slavery should not go. These
people, according to Colonel Ochiltree,

as emphatic In this belief as is the color

From present appearances Dakota has
been little "previous" in its organiza-

Congress will ask the enterprising poll

do all their work Of craftsmanship over

is a State Of Dakota.

The enactment Of herd law will be
the only practical solution OF the much
yexed free-grsss question, and the ille-
gal enclosure Of lands. This law has
worked like charm in all northwestern
prairie states, and only needs officers
with sufficient stamina TO enforce 1t to
forever settle the free-grassers. The
herd law is correct and just in principle,
and will eventually be the last resort.

quently alluded 10 the excellence OF the
Express as a newspaper, and rs an in
stitutlon that San Antonio may well be
proud OF, because 1t is one OF the best

Afternoon journalism Is growing in
usefulness, power and popularity in
Texas. The morning dailies have their
field and their mission, and there Is
probably no evening paper in the State
that INDUCES the silly ambition to in
wade the one or antagonize the other.
The Mail recognizes to the fullest extent
the necessity for the morning paper In
Fort Worth, and regards its metropoll-
tan nelghbor as one OF the indlspen-
sable and most valuable institutions in
the city. Nor Ia 1t mean enough to I'M
derrate the management Of the Gazette,
discount Its excellence or diecrcdit its
usefulness and power. There is need
for the morning and evening papers,
room enough for the two, work for both

SIT WAS the intention of the late
William II. Vanderbilt" says the New
York Tribune, ito place his magnificent
art collection, sooner or later, where It
would be accessible TO the public, and
he made several attempts to purchase a
site which he considered eligible for his
proposed gallery. The most desirable
place seemed to him to be the grounds
opposite his residence in New York oc-
cupied By the Catholic Orphan Asylum,
but as this property had been given
for the purpose by the city, or was held
on perpetual lease at a nominal rental
he was unable to make successful ne
gotlation for IT. Finally he selected
lot belonging to the Lenox estate. Just
north OF the Lenox Library. Here again
he met with refusal to sell, although
acquisition of the land was much more
important to him than the price. SO the
matter rested, although Mr.. Vanderbilt
never abandoned his purpose. Had he
succeeded in obtaining the desired site
when he tried, two or three years ago,
work upon the gallery would have be-
gun at once. The management would
have been similar to that of the Corco-
ran Art Gallery. There was to be a
board OF responsible trustees, In which
of course, the Vanderbilt family would
be represented, and the gallery would
have been endowed so literally that
there need have been no question as to
funds for Its maintenance. Only Mr..
Vanderbilt's friends knew Of this plan
during his life, and among them only a
few knew how firmly he held to the
idea. His gift to the public would have
represented several millions, and 1t was
through no reluctance of his own that
he was kept from carrying out his pur-
poses. He looked forward to a general
supervision Of this gallery as ap agree
able occupation for his later years. But
the Vanderbilt collection remains, and
II may yet be an important factor In
American education In art"

In ALL the defense made by the Times
and Express and their correspondents,
not one word has been heard in refuta-
tion that the city Of San Antonio paid
the Water-works Company In 1882, the
sum Of sl5,sl9 for fire protection, while
1t used only 70,460 gallons OF water for
fire purposes, being at the rate OF about
y cents per gallon, while its charge to
private individuals is limited to . cents
per 100 gallons. In 1884 1t cost the city
over cents gallon TO put out fires, and
the prospects are that In the current
year it will cost even more than that.
The LIGHr's figures are made up from
records and facts, and are open to inves-
tIgation. 1t was only In regard to the
income Of the Water-works Company,
the LIGHT not being In Its confluence,
that II was necessary to make an ap-
proximate estimate, of only sl00, 600 a
year, while the Times, whose informa-
tlon came direct from headquarters, put
1t at $2S0,000. The LIGHT cheerfully
makes the correction, and give the
Breckenridge water monopoly the full
benefit of the same. The net income Of
said corporation 10 over 80 per cent. on
its investment. No wonder that II fights
zealously for the maintenance OF its
franchise.
