The Rusk Standard prints tho fol
lowing argument for combining CON
victs within the walls of the State
prisons:
The costume worn by the Texas
convicts is q disgrace to civilization.
Convcts are dressed in coarse plaid
cloth with their names printed on
their backs in large letters. Every
few days we see them on the railroad
cars, chained around their necks with
heavy irons, going out to some farm
or wood camp and very often we see
them coming into the walls from
these outside camps pale and sick,
but invariably they are adorned with
heavy chains locked securely around
their necks. In many instances they
are required to sleep with chains
around their necks for weeks and
even months. The convicts within
the walls IRE treated kindly enough,
and stand II chance to return to their
families as good men as when con-
victed, if not better.

The Anti Monopolists State con
vention held in Fort Worth last week
elected Col. S. p. Burns as chairman,
and further, made him chairman of
the State Executive committe. The
convention, after lengthy and heat
ed discussion, decided toput no state
ticket in the field, and recommended
that all Anti-Monopolists in Texas
use their influence to secure the cleo
ton of such candidates for congress,
state senators aud members of the
house of representatives as will come
nearest representing their sentiments.
Their object, evidently, is to get
ready to enter the next campaign
with success assured through per-
feet organization of all antimonopoly
elements. The chair appointed a
committee consisting of Gen. W. II.
Hammond, Nj. ]. Nolan and J. NJ.
Smith. to issue an address to the peo-

SPELLING.

One of President Lincoln's most
esteemed friends was Ex-Governor
Tod of Ohio. He was quaint char.
acter, and Lincoln loved him for his
honesty, ability and native shrewd-
ness. One evening, when Gov. Tod
was in Washington, Lincoln invited
him over to the White House. They
had a long chat together, when Lin
coin finally said: "Look here, Tod,
how is it that You spell your name
with only one d? ! married a Todd,
bnt she spelled her name with two dis.
All of her relatives do the same. You
are the first Tod I ever met who
spelled his name with so few letters.
Gov. Tod looked ut Lincoln for a
moment in his peculiarly quizzlng
manner, and then replied: "Mr.
President, God spells His name with
only one d, and what is good enough
for God is good enough for me.
President Lincoln used to repeat
this story to his most intimate friends,
and every time he did so he would
laugh until the tears ran down over
that furrowed but grand face.

Capt. Coleman, schr. Weymouth, plying
between Atlantic City and N. Y, had been
troubled with cough so that he was unable
to sleep. and was induced to try DIR. Kings
New Dicovery for Consumption. 1t not
only gave him instant relief, but allayed the
extreme soreness in his breast. His chill
dren were similarly affected and a single
dose had the same happy effect. DIR. Kings
New Discovery is now the standard remedy
in the Coleman household and on board the

Mr.. Henry Howe, of Ashland, Neb.,
led Mrs. l.. Sans, of this county, to
the altar.
The wedding party came to town ear
ly on Thursday, but not finding Judge
Lacey in town, concluded to 90 to
Oberlin the following day and have
the ceremony performed there. This
became known, and our liberal citizens
contributed and sent a messenger for
the Judge. The couple agreed to be
married publicly at one of the dances
in town. Yocum's dance was selected
The Judge did not get to town un-
til about half past ten. The bridal
party were escorted to the hall a half
an hour later, where Judge Lacey per-
formed the ceremony in a neat and
impressive manner. Congratulations
then poured in upon the couple, after
which rich repasts were served at the
Windsor and Commercial Hotels. The
couple received many presents from
the citizens of Colby, as marks of es-
tealn in which they were held
The bride is a blushing brunette Of
