A freight train went out this morning,
guarded by seventy-five policemen, scat

gine and in the caboOse. It was followed
shortly after by an engine and tender, up
on which were twenty-five of Furlong's
men, armed with shot-guns and Winches-

at Pacific.

BRUSSELS, March 29.-Additional re.
ports of killed and wounded rioters are
received from Chareloi. The troops
have in no case temporized with the mob,
and the effect of their charges upon the
rioters has been to crush the revolution
ary spirit of the rioters, and cause
large numbers of the strikers
to sue for unemployment. The rioters
at Jimet placed two hundred
women in front as they marched through
the town, but even this coWardly precau-
ton against personal danger did not de-
ter the troops from firing on them. Many
of the women were wounded and the men
dispersed.
The strike is extending to Namur,
whittier more troops have been called
from Brussels. Later dispatches from
Charleroi state that the dis sorder rly feel
ing is subsiding. The strikers, reduced
to hunger, now go about the streets beg
ging for food, and when not under the
eyes of the soldiers emphasize their
demands with menaces. Though there
may be some further disorder
there will be no more organized riOting,
all organization among the strikers hav-
ing disappeared. Work win be resumed
in the glass works to-day and the men
will be armed with rcvOlvers TO secure i'm
munity from mOlestation by those unable
to gain their lost employment.

The New Orleans Times-Democrat mas
a somewhat confused notion OF politics
in this state. Says that paper
A few days ago a meeting held In Hunt couh'
~ Tex.. 10 nominate a member OF congress,
Declared IN favor Of ''prohlbitlng the importa'
ton. manufacture and sale OF intoxicating IL
ouors - IN other words, either prohloiuon
candidate for congress win be run or Demo
crat on a Prohibition platform.
Tbis bringing the question into congress
slonal asht has caused no little excteiheh. "a
Texas. for IL IS a decided novelty, u Delhs
formerly reserved for county elections. AIeN-
az correspondent writes the New YORK sun 10
know n this Is "straight-out Democracy. some
OF us contend that this lie platform COTTON up
bv ProhlbItlonlsts under false colors. They
are doing some tall electioneering, and unless
something is done to check them, they VIII

this state /"
The meeting in Hunt county was not
held to nominate candidate for congress.
1t was meeting of the Farmers alliance
to take some action on local political al
fairs, aud sitter discussion OF things in
general, including prohibition, the meet
ing adjourned after passing string OF
resolutions. One Of those resolutions was
to the effect that the next Legislature
should submit to the people con-
stitutional amendment abolishing the
manufacture and sale Of alcoholic liquor.
There was no prohibitory action taken in
connection with the nomination OF can
didate for congress No candidate was
nominated, and, of course, prohibition
was not made an issue in the congress
sional race, thus "causing no little excite
ment in Texas" Outside OF very small
circle, the prohibition question is not
keeping anybody awake o. nights in this
state.
The Texas correspondent Of the New
York Sun who fears that the Prohibition
lists "will eventually break up the solid
Democracy in this state" is too easily
alarmed. There is no danger of any such
calamity Probably there are some Pro-
hibitionists who would like to use that
question to split the Democratic party to
pieces, but they are notnumerous enough
to be formidable The greater part of the
Prohlbitionists are Democrats, who have
less to expect from the Republicans than
from any other party, and they will not
be duped into turning the state over to
the Republicans, even If they could do so.

AN INCOME TAX.

The Waco Day opposes THE GAzETTE's
proposition to impose u graduated in
come tax, and shows its total misappre
hension of the nature and effect of such
tax "If incomes are cut down in one
direction" says the Day, 'is there not
always an effort to recoup in another?
For example, if graduate income tax
impaired a railroad cOmpany's dividends,
would not the railroad reduce its wage
rolls or increase its charges to meet the
tax? And when all capital has to bear a
certain burden, imposed by law, will not
capital adjust itself to the new condition,
and still reap its legitimate profits2 Or
even II this would not be the case,
wherein would labor be benefited by
Gripping capital2 If the Knights, for ex-
ample, could enforce their 3 per cent.
law ON investments, or crush capital with
an income tax, how would wages or the
profits OF labor stand? The poor mans
recompense for his daily toll would be
the first to feel the depression, and the
loudest complaint would come from the
worklngman himself against the great
wrong perpetrated by his pretended
friends"
An income tax would not cut down OF
otherwise affect the income of any rail-
road In the country. 1t would not be
levied on dividends but upon the net in
| oo,,o oboya n carLain limit of tho mon
receiving those incomes. Probably the
Day will answer that as the dividends
make the incomes, there is little differ
ence between them, There Is, however
as there are millions OF dollars derived
from investments other than railroad
property, such as state and national bonds
and notes drawing interest. The proper
ton of income derived from railroad
stock or bonds is very small, and the ia,
