Timothy Winebruiser.

Our small men are often equal to our
greatest. There is strange reluctance
TO allowing to a familiar acquaintance
the merit which is due to an intellectual
performance. Every man, meanwhile,
Is conscious of latent powers in himself
which are undevelOped.
Having looked with much interest
into Timothy Wine6ruiser, we propose
to, give briefly in Off-hand style, impress
tions of the true inwardness of the
author. For business man to seize the
fleeting moments from idleness and write
book, is practical move in
the direction of general progress most
worthy of generous consideration.
Among the first Impressions OF Tim
othy Winebruiser are his fresh original
ity, his thorough Texas independence
and genuine good humor and sympathy
with men. He is looking through the
thin wells and cunning arts and many
DISCUSSES OF vain mOrtals, and is clearly
without doubt that there are very
many taking the very same peeps and
honest looks; and that himself and other
wide-awake loOkers-on, observing the
gicdy maze of the masked actors on life's
busy stage are having high old time of
humor and kind-hearted happiness, and
purity of welded, domestic life are
among the most beautiful and touching
features in his word portraiture. The
romantic incidents and heart-breaking
disappointments and final happy mar
riage between him and Dora are equal
to any thing in more pretentiOus novels.
He excels in original poetry:
Marriage is a boon of love-
And heavens promotion here;
And breathes an odOr of above
The incense of HIS sphere"
The book is faithful picture of life
and manners among plain people, or q
large merriment to themselves, in silent
mental sympathy, unsupported by the
gay actors, who fancy they are playing
their parts with most eminent success
Just very brief quotation from the
book, taken at random 1.-The mer-
cinary cuss first arrests our attention as
he ignores everything and all creation
for that alluring nihility, money. Next
is the bigot, who struts by and passes
along our thoroughfares as if greatness
knew only him, and as if others were
mere embers to his coRflagration."
The sincere admiration of Winebruiser
for woman. and his profound apprecia-
ton Of the position of the numerous
class known as the masses; while it is a
living burlesque and satire upon pre-
tense and pretension, of ignorance play
ing off learning, of trickery in the robes
of honor and honesty, of covetousness
in the shining costume of benevolence,
and even of piety; at the same time it is
free from malice or envy, or any person.
ality. Difusive, mutual goodfeeling
and better understanding of each other
among all classes, would be fruits of a
study of Timothy Winebruiser.

TUESDAY, MAY 18, 1886.

The whips Of the democratic party are
at work, busy with tongue and lash, en-
desvoring to prevent any boiling from
the old party. All combinations looking
to Independent political action are being
denounced in advance, and all the gods
of the bourbon calendar invoked to pre-
vent stampede. The general fidelity
of the democratic party to the particular
course marked out by its leaders is pro-
verbal, and this early cry against disin-
tegration sounds quite ominously. Do
the Texas democracy feel the firm foun-
dstions of their dwelling place trembling
and threatening to move under the new
political combinations likely to arise,
and are these warning notes Of alarm
real distress cries wrung from the oon-
seriousness Of danger and the fear of what
may befall? From whatever cause they
may arise, the cries are heard, and will
continue to be heard louder, longer,
more sgonizing until the last ballot is
dropped next fall and the ancient and
hitherto unterrified realize that politi-
cal cyclone has passed through Texas
which was particularly severe in the
granger sections.

and submitted it to a chemical examination,
and find that the same is composed of pure

The idea of Prof HOrsford was indeed
grand one in supplanting the indigestible tar
tarate of soda, which is always the end result
of all Baking Powders composed of Cream of
Tartar and Soda, by the soluble phosphate of
lime and soda, the very nutritive value of
bread, and the bone-producing elements of
nature.
1t is certainly the best and most healthy
bread-raising preparation ever offered to the
public, and every mother that has the health
of her children at heart should use no other.

The charge Of Judge Rogers, Of Chi
cago, to the grand jury, summoned to
inquire into the great anarchist riot OF
May 8, was very direct and strongly
denunciatory OF such incendiary har-
argues as were INDUCED in at the old
Hsymarket. His charge was to the
effect that the speakers were responsible
for what they melted others to do. The
men who teach riot and incite to riot are
responsible for the riotous acts which
follow and must be so held before the
law and by the courts. The charge will
be approved by every law and order
loving citizen Of the country. These
men who unfurl the red flag are the foes
alike Of labor and good government.

strikes all over the country, to secure
less hours of work and increased pay,
and are striking the balance. In this
the verdict is decidedly against the
labor organizations, and the moralizing
is INDUCED in accordingly. Let it be
borne In mind, however, that the Trades
Unions and the Knights of Labor both
took decided ground against any strik-
ing to enforce an eight hour law; also
that they counseled request for eight
hours pay only in all requests for eight
hours time. Had the oounsels of the
unions and the assemblies been followed
there would not have been strike In
the United States for eight hours work
and ten hours pay. The result only
proves that hasty, ill-considered action,
by few workingmen, or even by many,
contrary to the general advice and wis
dom Of the unions avails nothing, save
to disturb the industries of the country,
draw more closely together the forces
of the opposition and render all future
