VOTE SOLID.

1t is apparent to all that there is a
coalition in this county composed of re-
publicans, notified nondescripts and sore
head democrats, whose aim and chief pur-
pose are the disintegration and final
overthrow of the democratic party in the
county. The excuses for the movement
have been as various as the different sorts
of political characters il this insidious
combination. But the purpose is the
same, and that is democratic dismember
ment In this movement side by side
with Mr.. Wren, thoroughbred republi-
can, arrayed against the democracy are
such men as Messrs. Christian, Jernigan
and A. r. Morris. Disguise it how they
will, and no matter what their past rec
ords or party affiliations, these men are in
the anti-democratic movement above
indicated. They mean to encompass
democratic defeat, and are working for
that end as strenuously, as ardently, as
earnestly as Colonel DeGress or any other
of the republican leaders of Austin ever
did.
We therefore appeal to the democracy
of Travis, confronted by this new and in
sidious danger, to present an unbroken
phalanx to the enemy. Let the party
cast solid vote for the whole ticket,
from General Ross down to hide inspect
or and justice of the peace.
Let no democrat, betrayed into the
independent delusion, go back on his |
party by casting his vote for Christian, or
for Morris or Jernigan, or for Metz, or
any other name on the dico-independ
ent ticket. If he does he votes for the |
disruption and dismemberment of tn
democratic party of Travis county. Vote
solid. Scratch not.

WAR VESSELS OF TO-DAY.

The New York Herald has indus
triously collected lot of valuable data
concerning the building of war vessels
from the gceat admiralty lords of France
and England. All the noble lords inter,
viewed, with one accord, agreed that 2
war vessel of to-day in, order to be a sue
cess, must be very fast. The minimum
speed must not be below eighteen knots
per hour, and to be able to make twenty,
if necessary, for five hours at a time.
These great authorities snow pretty
conclusively that it is a false step to sac
ritice speed for size, or any other of the
attributes OF a ship which is expected to
stand hard knocks. fast cruiser, that
can travel twenty knots per hour, will be
able to rCn all around one of the ocean
mastodons of to-day, and with the many
appliances for sending shells through
steel armor could soon sink the large an
tagonist. contest between a fast cruis er
gunboat Italia would be somewhat similar
to the contest between the Monitor and
Merrimac in the late war, only it would
be little worse for the Italia. The rifed
bore guns of to-day loaded with proiec-
tiles charged with fulmi, cotton or meme
line on board of swift cruiser can sink
the largest gunboat ahoat in few hours
with no great damage to the cruiser. 1t
will be we'll for our government to exam
inc into these matters, and see to it in the
construction of our cruisers that speed
is not subordinated to anything else.

would advertise to the world the estimate
in which Col Driskill and his vim and en-
terprise are held at home. 1t would iden-
tify the hotel with the town, and an
nounce the clty's outreaching spirit in
that it now offered inducements to travel
ers to stop off, rather than pass US by in
contempt as has been their course.
1t is noted with pleasure that The
SrATEsMAN's proposition has been so uni
versany commented on with strong APP
proval. Even many of Austin's most
conservative and mossback inclined citi-
zens have applauded the papers position
1t would be feather in Austin's cap if
she could awake to the earnestness of
such step and plant herself squarely on
the line of advancement.

A DEMOCRATIC REFORM.

The following is a circular issued by
Secretary Whitney, of the navy:
"a custom has grown up in navy yards
of having a list of men-em plOyees-
suspended There is no authority of
law for this, and you will see that it is
discontinued and all such lists erased"
The reason for this order appears to
have been as follows During the fraudu-
lent republican administration there
grew up pernici Gus custom of having
what was called suspended list" of
workmen. The reason for this was to de-
feat the object of the bill passed by a
prevent the employing of new men in the
navy yards for the sixty days preceding
an election. By this ingenious de-
vice, suspended list" men were
hired several months before the election
and carried without pay until just before
election time when they were given en-
ployment This was one of many schemes
adopted by a republican administration,
to defeat the object of bills passed by
congress to prevent frauds. These
schemes are being discovered every day
and particularly in the department of the
government under the control of the Hon.
W. E. Chandler, who is at present en-
gagged in Illuminating attacks on the ad
ministration, inspired by the hope that it
will relieve him of a close scrutiny
of his own record. The democratic adj
ministration can get up political docu-
ment for the next presidential campaign,
the result of the investigation into the
republican rule, which will undoubtedly
load the party to success.

II is understood that some members of
the Farmers alliance, of this county,
took exception to the wording of local
notice In N, this paper of their
meeting held in Austin last week.
The STATESMAN wishes to state
that the wording was unfortunate rather
than malicious. For the Alliance, as such,
In its conservative methods and in its
efforts to build up the farming interests

thoroughly consistent one, ever aiding

THE NEW HOTEL.

The suggestion made by The STATES
MAN few days ago that the people of Aus
tin owed it to themselves in some appro-
pirate way to testify their proper appre-
citation of the effort of Col. Driskill to
give Austin hotel unrivalled in the state,
has met with almost universal commenda-
ton. THE STATESMAN suggested that their
testimonial could best come Ill the shape
of release from taxation of his property
for certain length of time, or while 10
owned it.
As the constitution of the state renders
void any direct and Legislative exemption
of such property from taxation, The
STATESMAN cannot centend for any such
action. But it does voice the hope that
this object may be attained in another
way. No obstacle binders such an as
sessed valuation being placed upon this
hotel property, as to meet the claims of
nominal tax, and yet, in substantial way
relieve this handsome improvement of a
tax in no way proportionate to the value
this structure will prove to the city. This
subject has been mooted not so much out
of any solicitude for Col. Driskill as be-
cause it was thought there was Just debt
on the part of the city due this public
spirited citizen; and because such an en-
dorsement at the hands of the people of
Austin of this big business venture

SOME PERTINENT QUESTIONS
WHICH SHOULD BE AN
SWERED.

Do not Mr.. Christian and Mr.. Wren
recognize the absolute necessity for loca
or county nominations!
If not,why do they refer to, and accept
nominations?
Why do they both allege they run in
response to numerous solicitations,i if some
sort of selection is not necessary.
If they run in response to numerous So
licitations, as they assert, they don't run
of their own volition, but as selected to
run by others, which leads to the question,
who selected, who agreed upon, or, in fact,
who nominated them?
If they have not been selected, or nom
mated, which is identically the same thing,

RODBER ARRESTED.
ONE OF THE PAIGE TRAIN ROB-
BEERS IN THE TOLLS.

Detective Chenneville informed a
STATESMAN reporter last afternoon that
Charles Nash had been arrested at Paige,
charged with being the
RING LEADER
in the train robbery which occurred at
that place on Sunday. Young Nash is a
son of Oscar Nash, who is well known in
this city, where he has many friends.
Detective Chenneville says there is no
doubt about Nash being the right man, as
he was fully identified by the railroad
agent and others. Nash has been en-
ployed as convict guard near Paige for
some time.
The other two men who were engaged
in the robbery are still at large.
Nash was placed in the Bastrop jail

SOME LARGE AVERAGES.

Recent sales of fine stock in this country
show some remarkable prices paid and in
dicatethat the business of raising thorough
bred horses and cattle is very profitable. AT
a sale of more than one hundred head of
short horns owned by Walcott & Campbell
of Utica, N. Y, the average price per head
was $4,000. The highest price paid at
this sale was $4,000 for the eighth
Duchess of Geneva, bought by R. p. Davis,
of England. At a sale of eighty five head
of the Vinewood short horns, owned by B.
B. Groom d. Son, Winchester, Ky the
average price was $3.50. The highest
price at this sale was $1,000, paid by
Messrs. Isles, Lippincott d Spears, of
Illinois, for the Duchess of Herdrie. The
average price of the late Glenview sale of
trotting horses, owned by j. C. Veteran,
of Louisville, Ky, was $2,O92,45 each, for
one hundred and tifty-fve head, the
highest price being for PancoGst, bought
by Mr.. Sheets, of Brooklyn, N. Y, for
$4,000.

ATTENTION is called to the card of
Messrs. E. I. Moore, and E. W. Smith, to
the democrats of Travis county, published
this morning. 1t has been intimated that
some democrats intended to vote for
Moore and scratch Smith, and that others
would vote for Smith and scratch Moore,
but the STATESMAN can hardly believe
most any democrat would hazard the sue.
cess of the party to any such course.
Vote for Smith and Moore. They have
been put forward by the democratic con-
vention, composed of representative men
from the city and county, and it is the
duty of democrats to sustain them, and
vote for them. Nothing can be brought
against either of these gentlemen. 1t is
admitted by every one that they are men
of ability and integrity, and that they will
make faithful and efficient representatives
Therefore The STATESMAN aims to see
them elected, and calls on every democrat
to do his duty and they will be elected.
