A STATESMAN VERSUS A SOLDIER

The criticisms thus far passed by dis
but intelligent citizens and
upon the opening campaign
utterances of General Ross, when fairly
considered, are, that the speech is made
up of minor and unimportant matters in
state affairs, old and dead issues, almost
forgotten "reminiscences, few fowery
passages from some of our deceased ora
tors found in all school books, and refer
e1ces to the speakers having been
general during the war, which is now no
very distinguishing characteristic, be-
trouble being to find private. But it is
we'll known, that since the war, our peo
pie have never chosen any of these nu-
merous generals to the Office of governor;
for the reason, possibly, at least in Texas,
that military and civil virtues and talents
in any high degree are rarely if ever en-
bodied in the same individual.
The general also refers to his having
been a member of the state constitutional
convention of 1876, also member of the
state senate, and rounding off his public
career as sheriff of McLennan county; but
there the general stops-and it must have
been a source of disappointment to his
friends, if not to himself, that both in the
preparation and delivery of his speech, he
was unable to point, with satisfaction OF
pride, to single beneficial enactment in
that constitution, or to one wise law
passed by the legislature of which he was
directly or indirectly the author.
Does not this prove conclusively tina
the public civil career of General Resi
evinces that he is decidedly of a mediocre
character; and that, if he were nominated
by the democratic party of the state o
Texas for governor, he would not be
"bullder up" OF wise laws, enlightened
systems, and statesmanlike policies TO
the protection, advancement and expan
sion of all the intricate and varied inter
ests of our grand and growing state?
The only practical questions upol
which he dwells are the land policy o
the state and the labor troubles. Hi
utterances as to the former make him
pronounced free grass man, and his al
tempt to straddle that portion of the stat
constitution which provides for tn
military branch of our government an

under what emergencies it is to be brought
into use presents the sad transformation
scene of Ross the Soldier of 1861 to Ross
the Politician of 1886 Ia politician being
a perambulating vote catching machine).
This lamentable transformation of Gen.
Ross will cause the law abiding, property
holding and tax paying citizens, and
especially the yeomanry of the state, to
entirely reject him as even possibility
in the race for governor.
The present fearful outlook all over
the U. S. brought about by the encroach-
ments of corporal ons on one hand and
the lawlessness of the working classes on
the other, is bound ere long to
gather into storm the ravages of which
in all its revolutionary tendencies no man
can predict the magnitude of. Texas,
from her advancing material wealth and
power, cannot escape this impending dan
ger, but will rather be chosen on this &C
count as fit arena for its ravages. The
state, at such time, would suffer untold
injury under the guidance of man OF
mediocre and negative character. Til
not soldier alone that would be needed
but man noted for his civil virtues, fol
his thorough business qualifications, will
a clear legal mind, who will fearlessly ant
fairly execute every mandate of the con
stitution, whose conservatism will be thu
admiration of all law-abiding citizens, bu
whose frmness and determination to ex
ecute the law, at all hazards, prompt.
and efficiently, will strike terror to all wh'
violate the law, whether they be the bloat
ed corporations or riotous mobocracy
Such man is Swain, as judged by hi
past. Who can answer for Ross-he ha
not answered for himself.

system, the stoppage of transportation al

THE LIQUOR LEAGUES DETECTIVE.
lie Proves To Be Fugitive from Justice, and
Is Arrested for Robbery.

Dexter e. Fay, the Liquor League detective,
who was employed a few weeks since to secure
evidence against vioiators of the Sunday law,
and who left so mysteriously after swearing out
dozen or more afidavits, was in the city again
on Wednesday night for short time, but in the
care of an officer, to whom no was handcaffed,
and was on his way to Milwaukee to answer to
several serious charges It develops that Fay,
after getting fron1s the Liquor League here all
the money he could, left for Cincinnati where,
on last Monday evening, he walked into one
of the station houses, and wanted to be given q
nights lodging He was refused, whereupon he
asked to be locked'up anyhow. and when he was
asked on what charge, he said he was an en-
bezzier in ST. Paul, MINI. He was locked up,
and on Wednesday detective came from Mil
waukee, where he was wanted, and took
him in charge. He is wanted there
to answer the charge of robbing the jewelry
store of Charles 81. Upmeyer, few weeks ago,
after binding the proprietor by throwing pepper
in his eyes.
According to the Enquirer. he is a very motor
ious man. His father, S. W. Fay, was wealthy
merchant Of Boston. About year ago young
Fay went to Milwaukee, and presented a letter
of introduction from an Eastern director of the
Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul railroad to Cen
eral Manager Russell Miller, and on the strength
OF this, he was given employment in the Office of
the company. In August last he forged checks
aggregating 1921 from several employees of the
road; and, having secured the money, skipped
out In October last he 'peppered' Chicago
pawn broker named Donnely, and got away
with diamond valued at $500, and he has also
been identified as the man who grabbed two
watches from tray in South Side, Chicago,
jewelry store a month ago.
Then it was that he came to this
city, where he registered at the Illinois House.
He worked himself into the good graces of the
proprietor of the house, who is a member of the
executive committee Of the Liquor League and
was taken to meeting of the committee of the
League and introduced to attorney Walls as the
spy" employed by the committee. That was
Friday, two weeks ago. He was paid $40 in ad
vance, end Saturday evening he moved over to
the Spencer House to catch the barkeeper there,
and Monday swore out warrants for the arrest
oftwo persons who he had been told were bar
keepers. but In reality were the clerks He did
not show up at the trial Wednesday, and on
investigation it was Learned that he had gone TO
Cincinnati on Tuesday night. Besides the aff-
davits he swore out against the Spencer House
employees there were q dozen or two others
against cigar-selers, which never were served on
account of his disappearance.
