Should Teach Them Two Things.

The state election in Louisiana and the municipal election in New Orleans on Tuesday convey lesson which it would be well for the bloody shirt orators of the north to consider and digest The first ought to convince them that there is no hope whatever of their breaking the solid south so long as they direct their streams of calumny and abuse into that quarter. and the other that reform movements stand just as good a chance of success in the Democratic party as out of it.-Brook. lyn Citizen. s.- ... :'sr'

THE panic of 1857 was caused by low tariff. At least some of our republican con tempories would have us believe. Why they go such long distance behind history is not explained. The panic of 1857 was an insignificant affair compared to the dis turbances which begun in 1871 and ended only when the democratic party was placed in power.

THE bill relating to the regulation of Chinese immigration, which SenatorStewart introduced yesterday, is similar to that presented in the house by Morrow of Cali fornia. It provides that immigrants can be landed only at the ports of San Fran cisco, Portland, San Diego, New York
 Boston, and New Orleans. This prevents their entrance through Vancouver and other British Columbia ports. Stewart
 Dolph, and Stanford are all in favor o1 the treaty, although it is not nearly strict enough in its provisions to suit them. They accept it, however, on the principle thai

THE president has vetoed the bill grant ing pension to Emily G. Mills, widow of gineer of the navy. MT. Mills was three times examined for retirement and each time an adverse report was made on the ground that he was not incapacitated fo1 killed accidentally by neighbor while shooting at an owl. In a message return ing the bill the president says ''As long as there is the least pretence of limiting the bestowal of pensions to disability o1 death in some way related to the incidents of military or naval service, claims of this description cannot consistently be al lowed.'' .-.

court, members of congress and generals
of the army to be present at Austin,
Texas, from May IA to 10, at the dedica-
ton of the new Texas capitol. The citi-
zens of Austin and people of Texas pro-
pose to make this occasion one of the
grandest in civic and military display that
has occurred in the United States. Major
Stewart will also present formal invita-
tions, ins behalf of the state of Texas, to
the government of the states of this re-
public. Such energy and wise policy
upon the part of the governor and people
of Texas, should be rewarded by large
number of our influential Mexican citizens
taking advantage of the opportunity to
visit the capital of Texas. The railroad
fare from any point in Texas to the city
of Austin and return will be only five
dollars, and tickets will be good for fifteen
days. This feature should add largely to
the number of our Mexican citizens who
will visit the capital of Texas upon the
occasion of the dedication of the new
Texas capital, which is said to be one of
the finest in the United States.
Major Stewart says he was treated most
courteously and with profound considera
ton by President Diaz and other officials
at Mexico, and the governor of the state
of Aguas Calientes and state officials.

WHARTON, TEXAS, March Is, 1888.

WHARTON, TEXAS, March 10, 1888.
To his ExcellencY, L. S. Ross, Governor OF Texas:
We, the undersigned tizens of Whar-
ton county, notice with regret that you
have ordered rangers to this county for
the purpose of preserving order in this
county during district cour'. The I'M
fortunate killing at or near Spanish Camp,
was matter that we all deeply deplofe,
and it has dOIe great damage to the
int + SITS of the county; but the sending
of troops here by you will, in our judg-
ment, strike a blow at the best later
ests and prosperity Of Wharton county,
far more damaging ia its effects than
does that of the unfortunate killing near
Spanish Camp-that was the result of a
fued between arties and their friends
fighting for the posse ST ion of q tract of
land. The sending of troops is the act
of the governor of Texas. The feud will
die out, but the fact that you sent troops
will live, and will carry with it the i'm
press on that Wharton county has not
enough honest, law-abidirg CT liens in it
20 enable our sheriff to preserve order in
the cOnnty, when, in fact and in truth, the
sheriff has never b en- resist d in one
| single instance, an We challenge proof to
the contrary. Ask our shtr #, aud he will
tell you that he h rs never been resisted.
Then why Is it that you should do US the
wrong to convey that idea to the world by
sending troops here?
We, TOR the sake of our county, beg of
you that you reconsider your actio II in
this matter, and not do us this great in
Justice. Very respectfully yours,

judges Will Differ.

The decision of Judge Townes, il the
Travis county road cases, on Saturday
last, is of mCre than usual interest. These
cases were appeals from awards by the
commissit ners' court in damage claims
resulting to land owners from the opening
of new roads. The claims were nearly
$4,000. Judge A. S. Walker, in similar
cases, had held that the district court had
appellate jurisdiction. County Attorney
Rarnhart renewed his plea to the iurisdic-
ton on behalf of the county in these
cases and was sustained, which is quite a
victory for the county.

vrathy, however, and severe against the
paper and all concerned, and from away
off he brought suit for $25,O00 damages.
1t was all clap-trap. He never intended
to prosecute it. He couldn't afford to,
and yesterday the following order was
made;

On this day this cause came on for trial,
aud, both parties appearing by their

upon announced to the court that plaintiff
desired no further to prosecute his cause,
and moved to dismiss the same.

dismissed and that the defendants, II. G.

Publishing company, do have and recover
of the plaintiff, NJ. Salm, all cos's of
suit in this behalf expended, for which

A BOAT VOYAGE.
Three Young Men Going Down
the Raging Colorado.

Yesterday Mr.. F. r. Gates, John 7.
Woodson and j. w. Woodsop, three young
cotton buyers living at Bolton, reached
the city and started last afternoon ON
boat voyage down the Colorado to its
mouth.
They bought splendid boat of Joe
Griffith und loaded it with provisions and
camping outfit, and they expect to have
Jolly trip.
Except on bright moonlight nights on
good water, they will lay up and camp
ashore.
The distance is estimated at over 300
miles, and the young men will probably
find it difficult trip, especially between
here and Columbus.
