Men of capital are benefit or him
drance to community, according to the
manner in which they use their money.
The man who locks up his wealth in bank
vault, or invests in real estate for spec
ulative purposes and selhshly waits for
his nelghbors to improve the land about
him and thus raise his own TO a markeia-
BILE value, exerts retarding influence
upon u community But the man who
launches out into practicable business en-
terprses who stimulates local trade,
who improves real estate, who gives em-
ployment to worthy people, and who helps
to mold the future of the city IN which he
lives instead of looking on while others
do it, manifests true public spirit.
Fort Worth has many such; it has a few

Some Strong Words in Defense of His
Cause.
CLFnuRSE, TEX, Jan. Ia. 1885.
To the Editor of the Gazette:
While your criticisms, as general
thing, of the proneness of Texas juries to
assess light punishments upon persons
charged with grave offenses, and the
weakness OF our criminal system to adj
minister the laws impartially and swiftly,
have been fair and proper, yet II you had
known DR.. SHAY and the circumstances
by which he was surrounded at
the time he killed the brother of the
man who assassinated him, you could
have never written yesterdays editorial
In which you denominated him ga muir
derer,n whose taking of was attributed
to the laws delay In melting out proper
punishment TO him.
It is true the grand jury OF his county
had indicted him for murder, yet that is
eften the case and justly so, when there
IS n complete vindication Of the person
charged with murder as often follows.
There never breathed upon the free soil of
Texas q Drawer, nObltr and more generous
spirit than that of DR. Thad Shaw, whose
young life was so prematurely cut off by
the hand of the assassin who plainly
foresaw complete vindication OF his
victim by jury of his peers in the courts
of the country. Although he was near
and very dear to me, yet think | Impair
TALLY speak the sentiments of those who
know him will, when say that he was as
kind and gentle as Il woman, than who
never lived more sympathetic man; his
kindness and charity having even reached
the family of the assassin who slew him.
| write this because your editorial was
based upon an assumption OF state Of
facts (which did not exist and knowing
your province as a great journal is to
deal with measures, not individuals,
feel no delcacy in requesting a correction
of your estimate of the character of my
dead relative aud friend as u simple mat
ter OF Justice, aud while / write as tho
friend and relative Of the deceased,
write impartially, and can fully snbstan-
tate the facts which justified DR.. Shaw
in the killing of Busick, and feel it my
duty "to report him and his cause Alright
to the unsatistled."

Mr. HoAR seems TO want TO hurry up
the millennium. lie has introduced bill
to set aside $40, 900 for a monument for
that Democratic partisan, President Madi-

carried on the war of 1872 with Great
Britain, which Mr.. IIoar's state opposed
and denounced as an effort of the red
Republicans of this country to support
the French In their war with England,

tic. The man who is not an aguostic is a
poor, pitiful Christian.
Mr.. Bondics, the liberal agnostic, was
so overlooking with love for his fellow
kind that he could not allow his wife TO
set an example by peacefully and happily
living In the religion which she believed
was her salvation. His charitable heart
was so wounded at her stubbornness In
clinging to that old superstition, the BIZ
bic, that he omitted no opportunity to re-
vile her religion and traduce her corelig
ionists by the application Of opprobrious
epithets TO them. He could not suffer
that she should teach her children 20 love
God and endeavor TO live upright lives &C
cording to the scheme of Christ. Such
things were opposed to his large ideas Of
love and liberality, and he forbade them,
II made no difference that he wrecked the
life of the woman whom he had vowed TO
love and protect. II she could not live .
liberal life, according to his notions Of
liberality, she must bear the conse-
quences.
There seems to be something wrong
here as TO results. Perhaps Mr.. Shaw
will tell us, in his Independent Pulpit,
what is the matter Perhaps he will tell
US that the woman is to blame for not
forsaking the old superstition in which
she was brought up and coming out into
the nobler light of liberal agnosticism as
expounded by her husband He may
make it quite clear to the readers of the
Independent Pulpit that it was the woman
who has broken up the happiness of her
husband by her pervcrse inability to ben,
her bigoted conscience to his liberal
creed, But as for us, we confess that we
are unable to perceive the superior virtue
of system that destroys the happiness Of
wife aud mother and ruins the family
relation by driving her to seek for divorce.
To the benighted intellect that has not
emerged into the full sunshine of agnosti-
cism, it looks like the opposite OF liberal
ity to prosecute one for opinions sake
even though that opinion be favorable to
the Christian religion and the object of
persecution wife. But it may be that
we see through glass darlly Ito quote
from that exploded book, the blble), and
that after awhile we may see these things
as Mr.. Shaw and the congregation of Lib
eral hall see them, and be able to justify
such conduct and approve of it as in the
direction of the freedom of the conscience
and liberation of the intellect.

Weeks Doings in District Additions
to Penitentiary,
Correspondence of the Gazette.
SAN Diego, Tex, Jan. 1G.--The district
court commenced on Monday, the 18th
inst. j.. l.. Wright, the sheriff OF Duval
county, opened the court in due form,
and Hon, J. G. Russell, judge, arrived on
the II 80 train from Corpus Christi and
convened the grand and petit juries that
afternoon. The next morning the docket
was called and the case of Frank Myer ct
al. VS.. Crum Bros. ct al, from Starr
county, was taken up. This case had
been tried twice before and proved, as it
was expected it would, long and trouble
some one. Myers, Nicholson and Shoal-
water of Laredo represented the defend
ants, and Messrs. Wech, McCampbell and
Givcns of Corpus Christi the plaintiffs.
The case was ably contested all through.
1t lasted from Tuesday until Thursday
afternoon. The jury was out all night
aud Friday all day and night, and up to
this morning has not agreed upon YER
dict
Friday being appearance day, that
docket was sounded and orders taken.
The criminal docket was then taken up
and the case Of the State VS.. Fernando
Vallejo, on charge of DEMONSTRATING, was
taken up. The jury returned into court n
verdict OF guilty, and sentenced the Mex
lean to five years in the state peuiten-
tiary.
The next case called was that of the
State against Benito Quintero, who was
indicted for DEMONSTRATING and forgery
He was convicted in both cases, and q
verdict assessing the punishment Mt nYe
years in the penitentiary in the horse
stealing case, and two years in the
forgery case. On Saturday morning the
case of Pedro SavaIs, also for horse
stealing, was tried. He pleaded guilty,
and was given five years in the state peni-
Tertiary.
The grand jury has presented some
| twenty odd cases into the court, and is
still at work. Court will take recess to-
day at noon, so that the Judge can pass
Sunday with his family in Corpus Christi.
Court will reopen on Monday at . O'Clock.
