Important to Texas cattle owners:
My attention has recently been di-
rected TO the fact that various states
and territories have prohibited the
introduction of Texas cattle, because
of the alleged danger taat they will
communicate the fatal disease to the
native cattle of such states aud terri
tories. such prohibition is very det-
rinental to the cattle industry of the
state of Texas, and am informed by
the chief OF animal industry and by
many others acquainted with the sub
ject that the cattle from considerable
part of the state do not communicate
such disease and are not source OF
danger 10 tho cattle of other sta.os

Mexican History.

THE EXAMINER has had occasion to
speak several times, in general
way, concerning the historical works
of Hubert Howe Bancroft. A word
now will not be amiss in regard to his
latest volume, that is, the last pub
lished, which covers the period of
Mexican history extending from 1924
to 1868. In refel ence to this authors
undertaking, Charles Darwin, some
time since, said: Magnificent work.,
Max. Miller; "A solid one" Thomas
Carlyle: Exceedingly interesting and
Important The Nation: "Never was
a marvelously large library put more
completely under tribute than by this
author" Jno. W. Draper: "You have

that has enabled Mr.. Bancroft, TO call
forth the admiration and eulogy of
such men as we have quoted. We
pass over those other qualities we
find In his work to make 1t standard
and endurable, to note especially the
completeness with which it is pre-
pared, the calmness of its almost ju-
dicial tone, and its loyalty to the truth

Salmon will act honestly and fairly

Toner Coleman.
There are as many cattle needed for
the northern ranges this season ms
heretofore, and as northern cattle
have not depressed any In value, the
only reason for the depreciation OF
values of cattle In Texas, has been be-
cause of the restrictions placed on
their movement north. Now IA the

inspectors of Kansas, Colorado. New
Mexico and Arizona have full author

AN OFFENSIVE PARTISAN.
A New York Comment on Ike Young's
Rc-Appointment.
From the Nec York World.

Rc-Appointment.
From the New York World
Isaac j. Young, who for sixteen
years has been the Republican Collec-
tor of the capital district of North
Carolina, has held his position during
so long a period because he has been
the brains and the muscle of the Re-
publican party in Raleigh.
He has entered actively into every
campaign during these sixteen years
as a Republican speaker. He has
gone as a delegate to every National
Republican Convention since the first
one that nomilated Grant.
He was q leader among the South
ern delegates at the Chicago Conven-
ton, where he worked for Arthur un-
til he saw that Arthur had no chance,
and he then gracefully came to the
support of Blaine.
He stumped the State of North
Carolina last year for Blaine. and was
the best Republican campaigner in
the field. He has been a consistent,
persistent, bitter and offensive parti-
san.
His Office in Raleigh has been the
place where Republican caucuses have
met. 1t was from his Office that the
Tribune's falsified dispatches about
the election were read to the Repub-
licans of Raleig gh last November. 1t
was from the steps of his Office one
night during that excitement that a
mob of colored men were enraged by
false dispatches, which came pear ma.
king the principal street Of the town
flow with blood.
If there is anything that goes to
make an offensive partisan OF which
Isaac J. Young has not been guilty,
who will say what it is ?
His office, which collects the tax
paid by the great tobacco manufactu-
ring district of North Carolina, ii
more remunerative than any other of
fee, State or Federal, in North Caro-
lima. Young is yet a Republican.
But his term of office expired a few
days ago and, contrary to all expects
ton and all precedent, he has been re
appointed, and he has a new commits
sion signed by President CLEVELAND
and Secretary Manning. There is ev
identity a mistake somewhere. Has
not the President been imposed upo,
again?

Gen. Clingman's Tobacco Cure.
From the Ne,o York WorId.

Physicians aad clergymen should
be alike interested in the latest report
ed marvellous cancer cure by means
of Gen. T. T. Clingman's tobacco
poultice. The case was that of wo-
man in Greensboro, N. c., who for
eight months suffered with a breast
cancer, but on applying the Clingman
tobacco cure she was on her feet in
two weeks attending to her household
duties, aud last Sunday, as the Greens
boro Patriot asserts, "she walkod two
miles to church" The cancer-curing
properties of tobacco should recon-
mend the remedy to physicians, while
its propulsive power in carrying a
woman two miles on foot to- church
should commend it to clergymen.

JEWISH LONGEVITY.
How Observance Of tho Mosaic Law
Preserved the Vigor OF the Race.

How Observance OF tho Mosaic Law
Preserved the Vigor OF tho Race.
From the Leisure Hour.
In enumerating the causes which
have made the Jewish people SO strong
and vigorous, particular mention must
be rsade of their observance of the
Sa.kaEh. This day was appointed for
the double purpose of securing set
portion Of time for the worship of God
and afording rest to the body wearied
with its six days labors. Obedience
to this primeval law is held by the
Jews to be as strictly binding on them
as any other religious obligation. In
Christian countries where the Sunday
is kept sacred or observed as holi-
day, another day of rest in addition to
their own Sabbath is obtained, thus
fortifying themselves against the crush
ing toll and nervous strain of modern
life. The loss accruing from this en-
forced abstinence from business wor-
ries is more than counter-balanced by
the gain in nerve power with which
periodical cessation from any harass-
ing employment is compensated. This
is doubtless one of the factors which
have helped to invigorate both mind
and body, and to develop in them
those high qualities for which they are
justly distinguished.
TO sum up. the longevity of the Jew
is an acknowledged fact. In his sur
roundings he is ON q par with his
Christian ncighbor. If the locality in
which he dwells is unhealthy he also
suffers, but to loss degree. If the
climate is ungenial, its influence tells
on him, too, bat with less injurious eff
feet. His vigorous health enables him
to resist the onset of disease to which
others succomb. These advantages
are for the most part owing to his food,
his temperance habits aud the care
taken of him in sickness and poverty.
No doubt he is specially fortunate in in-
heriting constitution which has been
built up by attention, for many cen
turies to higienic details. His meat i.
drained OF blood. SO that by that
means morbid germs are not likely to
be conveyed into his system. 1t is also

GUITEAU,S CURSE,

From. the Raleigh Chronicle.


From the Raleigh Chronicle.
The recent violent death of another
of the "Guiteau jury" recalls to mind
the predictsons of the assassin, when,
foaming with passion and waving his
Bible high in the air, with his eyes
rolling and teeth gnashing, he scream
ed: MY inspired act prevented an
other war Arthur would not save
me; he shall be repudiated by his par
ty and Blaine shall be nominated, and
then the Republican party shall be
swept out OF existence! My curse
shall rest upon and pursue every man
who takes part in my murder!" Ma
ny learned men believe that war with
China was averted by Mr.. Blaine's alb
dication of the secSetary Of states chair.
Everybody knows how Blaine whip
ped Arthur in the convention. and
how the Republican party Was defeat
ed at the polls. District attorney,
Corkhill, whom Guiteau particularly
hated and cursed, lost his wife soon
after the trial, then he was suspended
from office during the star route trials,
finally losing his Office in disgrace.
He now has little or no practice and
is said to be fast going to the dogs.
Y. s. marshal Henry was soon after
dismissed from office in disgrace. DIR.
Woodward, who pronounced him sane,
has died from nervous exhaustion.
DIR. Bliss has lost both health and
practice. Another physician who tes-
tilted to his sanity was subsequently

in an insane asylum: while the noted
specialist diad suddenly in the prime
of life. OF the jury that convicted
Guiteau, three have died, three have
failed in business and some of the rest
have seen nothing but trouble since
Two of the special officers having the
assassin in charge are dead, one hav.
ing been murdered. Account for thi.
if you can. They are facts, and they
are certainly remarkable facts. Il
will be three years on tho Both of June
