EDITORIAL OPINIONS.

Philadelphia Press: Brute force is no
longer the controlling element Of a
strike In this country. II has given way
TO brains.
Rusk County News: Whenever law
goes into effect making the carrying Of
pistols felony, pistol pockets will dis
appear from trOwsers.
Weimar Gimlet: Hell has been seri-
ously damaged by the evolution Of Teli-
gion and the late revision. but the hor-
rets' nest in all its pristine vigor yet re-
MAINS"
Washington Critic: With the able as
sistance of the Pan-Electric investiga-
tors, DR.. Rogers bids fair to get pretty
fair advertisement for his satiTiCal
poem, The Great Mugwump.'
Comanche Town and Country: Be-
cause people take advantage of each
other sometimes in business, Will it pay
to kill all other industries with the ex-
pectation that farming will stand alone?
Atlanta Constitution: The tragedy of
Wednesday at CarrolltOn, Miss, cannot
work other than injury to the state. The
unlawful killing of thirteen men, while
on trial in court, surpasses any tragedy
of its kind ever before reported.
Gath in Cincinnati Enquirer: Had
there been nc Jefferson there would
have been no Calhoun had there been
no Calhoun there would have been no
Jefferson Davis. The South wants
truth, literature, and a crematory.
Dallas Morning News: The New
York World is highly pleased over the
results of its efforts to bring the thieves
of the Board of Aldermen to Justice.
When the World starts after Aldermen,
it is generally loaded for bear, but it
snaps when the game is in the Cabinet.
Dallas Morning News: The newspa-
pers are the street corners of to-day.
The Pharisees of 1856 can be found in the
newspapers every day. Had there been
newspapers when the Pharisee made The
Oast ne would have done it in the press
and not on the corner.
Waco Examiner: Amid the burden
of strike news and the overflow of sena-
tOrlal elOquenoe in relation to the right
of the President to make removals, we
find r Om to make the announcement
that your Uncle Sammy Tilden is in eX-
cellent health.
Cincinnati Star-Times: Signs point
to a political clOudburst in Ohi" next
fall, totally drowning out the gang"
section of the Democracy. An honest
election in Cincinnati this spring will
leave nothing of the gang" but bad
OdOr.
St. Louis Globe-Demoorat: Senator
Vest has lost 40 or 80 pounds in weight
during his present illness. He has also
lost $1,000 in money BY reason of his mis-
takpD pnD tiHanna in Mr. GarlopH1S pnin
ion with regard to certain telephone
stock.
Waco Day: The official organ of the
city of San Antonio says one of its es-
teemed city contemporaries INDUCES in
an editorial groan" over the loss of the
city printing At the rate paid, we
should think the official organ would DO
the grOaning.
st. Louis Post-Dispatch: The knights
of Labor have grievance against the
Missouri Pacific Railway which they
wish to discuss the Missouri Pacific
Railway has grievance against the
Knights of Labor which it refuses to dis
cuss.
New Orleans Times-DemOcrat: Atew
years ago, largely through the influence
of Mr.. Hewitt and men of that class.
this country went reciprocity mad and
proposed to even admit Cuban sugar
free. 1t is gratifying to notice the
change of sentiment on this point, this
recognition that there is nothing gained
by destroying our native industries.
New York Sun: We have not OBJ
served that any friend of MIR. Garland's
has yentured to call DR.. Rogers liar, or
has succeeded in impeaching his testi-
moDy in any respect. Crank, visionary,
bad poet, or not, if Rogers tells the truth
there is a black stain on Mr.. Garland's
reputation and on the fame of the Dem
Ocratic Administration which hesitates
to throw him out.
Governor Ireland's proclamation for
law and order has the true ring. He
doesn't assume to decide the right or the
wrong OF either side, but sternly de-
mands that the peace and order of So
Ciety and the rights of property be not
disturbed, and declares his purpose to
bring all so doing to justice; and asks
the aid of all good people and civil Cffi-
GERS in the State to aid and act promptly
in the premises. His excellency is re-
deeming his name from the aspersions
of want of spinal column. The knights
will fall into line and right their wrongs
at the ballot box. The people will rise
in their majesty against the merciless
inhumanity of blOated and domineerlng
capitalists. There is manhood yet in
men, and the defiance of oppression
whatever its prestige or Wanting dis
dain of honest toll and shallow-pated
snobbery.
