Democracy CONTINUES Idle Whom 1t Should

FORT WORTH, TEX, June ll.-Editor
GAZETTE: The editorial in this MORNINGS
GAZETTE on Democratic organization
was most timely and pertinent. "What
Is the Tarrant county executive commit
tee doing? Waiting for the primaries to
meetY' The Democracy, acting under
the leadership of the executive commits
tee, is lying idle Our committeeman are
certainly aware that enemies are urking
on The outskirts of tie Democratic camp.
Emissarles from other states, whose his.
tory and political alliance are known only

them here, but protested Democrats. act.

the South, the farmers and Iaborine
men," are influencing disintegratien in
the ranks Of the Democratic party. How
are wc, the Democracy, meeting this in.

seeing our ranks thinned and the opposi.
ton augmented by these preach
ers of dissension and dlscord,
with the pitiIul, simple plea that
the issues involved are confined
simply to county, are not national, and
therefore they can desert the ranks of
tne Democracy on these local issues and
still be sound Democrats, when, in fact,
there is no issue between us locally, but
merely an opposition led by Green
packers, Radicals and sore headed Office
seekers.
Inc executive committee should put
democratic speakers in the field at once,
who will preach the truth as II Is found
IN Democracy"-not only who will do
this, bus who will advocate with power
and reason nomination by the coming
county convention, and not wait for the
primaries to meet. Delay is dangerous,

missed the exact time, as was
laughed at by tho press, for "Dothing
succeeds like success, and nothing falls
like failure"
But this theory OF the influence OF the
stars was not born with Prof. Tice and
did not die with him. 1t is as old M
Egyptian astrology, aye as the book of
job, the Oldest Of records. "Canst thou
bind the sweet influences of the PIE
iadesY" says Job. That ls, can Won pre-
vent the influence of the seven stars from
so affecting our planet as TO prevent the
heaven-blessed rain from falling? That
was a sweet influence on the arid plains
where Job wrote, and was a sweet in1u-
ence when the rain fell on the I'd OF June
here, the first since the 29th of April when
the planets that influence our earth were
last In such position as to produce this
erect. Now cannot in this article enter
into details, but will state that all the dis
turbances OF the earth as to rainfall pro-
ceeds either from its own euuinoxes or
tne equlnoXes OF other planets influencing
1t. While Prof. Tice has beer called from
earth, one who Is as great as he has sue
ceeded him In st. Louis, and his recent
predictions from study OF the planets
are attracting the notices of the authori-
ties at Washington who make study
OF this business, and they have asked
him to aid them, which he is
doing. The next planetary disturbance
after this, which began on the I'd of June
and Will last for about four or five DAYS.
say to the 9th of this month, will
occur about the 18th OF July, the time
that our decennial celebration NJ Fort
Worth, mean. Let us see If IL does not
occur then, this Will be aided by the con-
gregatton Of so many persons In one
place which seems to be cause of rain.
You may look back and you will see IL
has not failed TO rain on the 4th of july
from this cause within your memory
here, with possibly one or two excep-
uons. SO we may expect 1t then also.
10 put this in some practical, tangible
shape, let our legislature, for the benefit
OF the farmer and stock raiser, establish
In connection with labor bureau, g
weather signal office, such as Rev. Ira
HICKS has done in st. Louis, who is the
one upon whom the mantle of Tlce has
iallen, and let us, when the juxtapositlon
OF the planets are favorable, use explo
slVes to produce rain. We can do It
much cheaper than by gunpoWder as we
did during the war by the use of dyna. !
mite will venture to say $50 worth of
dynamite properly exploded will produce
rain at any favorable planetary sign. Let
US make the experiment at the decennial
celebration on the 18th of July. Can | |
get second 10 my motion?

TnE sentence OF Master Workman Da-
Wis of the Knights Of Labor, in st. Louis,
to two years in the penitentiary, and the
Imposition OF $500 fine, is hard pun
ishment, but not harder than just. This
was not case Of conspiracy or BULLDOG
ing, 1t was no new offense, the penal
ties for which men were in ignorance Of.
Davis crime was attempted train
wreoklng and shooting at guards on the
train. such acts are felonies at all times,
aud the punishment of Davis was a very
lenient one. For the same offense men
have been given much longer terms in
the penItentiarY.

calculated to prejudice him with law-abid-

PERSONAL Vs.poLIr1oAL ISSUES


The organs Of Gen, Ross were very
prompt to disayow any responsibility on
the part Of themselves and their candi.
dates for the recent campaign document
Of Mr.. eX-Comproller Brown. This de-
NAL was made presumably In Difference
to the popular sentiment which regards
with disfavor the injection Of petty and
unfair methods into political campaign.
Had the friends Of Gen Ross lived up TO
this disclaimer, the public would
have been convinced OF It's sincerity,
and Mr.. Browns effort would have been
quickly forgotten as an outburst Of in-
dlyidual prejudice. BY their conduct,
however, the organs of the Ross cam
paign seem determined to convince the
people that the Brown pronuuclamonto
was down on the programme as flank
attack against Mr., Swain, and that they
have placed great reliance in the man
euver. The Waco Examiner, the recog.
rized personal organ Of Gen. Ross, and
supposed TO reflect his wishes, is working
the Brown letter for all It believes that
remarkable document to be worth. Ignor-
ing the complete refutatlon OF every state

fathers heart"
The enraptured man caught her
eagerly in his arms.
HE gave you to me years ago, dar-
ling, but 1 would take the gift only
from yourself. Don't look 81 bewilder-
ed, dear love; am Lord Derby! My
cousin personated me. Forgive the de-
ception; I would be loved for myself
alone. All! am I not fortunate man
to be so doubly blest! For love has con-
quered pride"

The President, in some of his vetoes
of the pension bills passed by Congress,
displays trifie of humor that, properly
developed would make him sought after
as writer for the funny newspapers.
One of the bills provided for pension
to Lewis w. Scanlan, who served forty
days in the Blackhawk war, in 1882.
Scanlan contracted chronic diarrh9a,
and in 1886, fifty-four years after re-
ceiving the alleged injury, he applied for
a pension, and Congress passeda bill to
relieve the distress of the oldgentlenan.
In vetoing the bill the president says:
II am inclined to think it would have
been fortunate thing if in the case it
could have been demonstrated that a
man could thrive SO well with chronic
diarrhna for fifty-two years as its exist
ence in the case of this good old gentle
man would prove. We should then per-
haps, have less ofitin claims for pensions.
The fact is in this case there is no disa-
bility which can be traced to forty days
military service of fift-four years ago,
and l think little, if any more infirmity
than is usually found in men of the age
of the claimant" Such case is not one
that man can be very funny about,
and probably the claimant does not feel
funny at all, but the claim is SO ridicu-
lous, that an honest president could not
do otherwise than veto it.-Er.
