A GREAT hurricane swept over the
towns of Sabine Pass, Texas, and
Johnson's Bayou, La, one day last
week, totally destroying both places,
Both towns were situated near the
gulf coast, about six miles apart. The
sea water rushed over the towns in a
great flood, and covered the country
for miles around to the depth of sew
eral feet. Over two hundred lives
were lost, and the property of those
who survive is all swept away. Not
more than half Of the bodies have yet
been recovered. Salt water now
covers the country for miles around,
and the suffering among stock and
animals is great. Large numbers of
cattle were lost. Relief committees
are at work getting the people away
and providing for the destitute as
much as possible.

HARDEMAN county now holds the
beautiful banner given by the State
Democratic Executive Committee for
largest per cent of increase in Demo-
cratic vote at the election two years
ago. In the coming election the
county which makes the largest in
crease over its vote of two years ago
will win that banner. Warren coun-
ty has as good an opportunity to win
this banner as any county in the
State. There are Democrats enough
in Warren county to increase our
vote twenty-five per cent, and we be-
lieve this would win the banner. Our
sister county of White, we understand
from Mr.. S. f. Cunningham, will
make an effort to carry it off. Let
every Democrat in old Warren come
to the front on Tuesday, the I'd day
of November, and we believe we will
win. But even should some other
county make a larger increase than
Warren and win the banner, we will
be well repaid for any increase we
may make in the larger representa-
ton we will have in future conven.

Washington Letter.

The events of the week in Wash
ington have notbeen of a momentous
or sensational character, but to those
who follow the daily details of ma
tional history they are significant and
not important. The work of purifi-
cation, of redistribution, of change,
of improvement, daily goes on in the
Departments under the new Admin
istration. The history of single day
would fila volume, and would fur
nish interesting reading to political
philosophers and economists. But to
epitomize the history of week in a
simple letter would be remarkable
feat of selection and condensation.
The members of the Cabinet are
at work on their yearly reports. These
when completed, viii be the simplest
as well as the ablest argument for the
continuation of a Democratic Admin
istration ever issued. They will show
a great looping off of useless eX-
penses and worse than useless men.
They will show that great step has
been taken in the direction of clean
illness and honesty of government.
1t may strike some withsurprise that
the Government Printing Office, after
having discharged FIVE hundred en-
ployes and reducing expenses about
$4,000 per month, is now doing more
and better work than before. But
this is a state of things that causes
no surprise in Washington, where it
is known that the Republican party
has, for years, crowded the Govern
ment offices like omnibuses with po-
litical friends, favorites, andrelatives.
1t cannot be claimed, of course, that
at the end of twenty months of Dem
ocratic rule everything is just as it
should be. 1t will require twenty
years to complete the work of purifi-
cation and reform so well begun and
then it is more than probable that
the march of progress will be charac-
terized by slips ofretrogression. Dem
ecrats are not all wise and all power
full. Human weakness, selfishness,
and cupidity will assert themselves.
Nepotism and corruption will show
occasional outcropping. But it is the
belief of patriots, and, may say, OF
politicians that we have entered upon
a higher and more healthful plane OF
political life and morals.
The estimates of the Department
of Justice are already on the Presi.
dents table, and the estimates OF
other Departments are pretty well
advanced. The reports ciculated by
Republicans, that the clerks in the
various Departments have been ac-
lively engaged in preparing cam
paign documents for the Democratic
party, are said authoritatively to be
not entirely inaccurate. The annual
reports Of the various Departments,
and the estimates for the coming
year, taken together, it is believed,
will constitute a series of magnificent
campaign documents for the Demo.
cratic party.

Some of the papers on the other
