DON'T SPOIL THAT HAT.

If you see your wife, sister, daugh-
ter mother, son, husband, brother or
friend of either sex, going out in this
uncertain season Of the year, without
a parasol or silk umbrella to keep the
rain from spelling the fine hat or bon
net they have just purchased at Wolf

WolfsOn's yourself and buy one of his
Lyons silk umbrellas, the best in the

the incest kind of a Christmas present
and these parasOls, same material,
are just as nice. Either one will do,
but buy one or the other, and save

from the following:
"The republican party is treading

dismay that the bloody shirt racket
could not be worked over there and

is getting too dirty to swim in.
The San Antonio river has fewer
impurities in it this year than for
years previous. The water is some
times discolored by surface drainage
after rain, but it's volume of water is
greater, the current quicker and the
river consequently purer than for a
long time. The river has secured out
it's bed during the past year and a
very great deepening of the channel
is observed in many places. Old
jewellers along the banks of this clas-
sic stream here take particular note
of this fact and report a depth of from
twelve to fifteen feet and much
swifter current with this depth than
was observed few months ago when
the channel was only from six to eight
feet deep.

The kerrVllIe News seems to have
had some San Antonio business moss
backs in its eye when it penned the
following concerning our recent fair:
"Let the business men of that city,
who held back and manifested such
unpardontble indifference in this
laudable undertaking, come boldly to
the front and show that they too are
in dead earnest-that they mean bust
ness; otherwise they will again in
cur the scOrn and contempt of all
liberal minded citizens both at home
and abroad. The idea of reaping
where others sow is prepOsterous.'
"Preposterous" is good, but the I'M
vanished truth remains that even
here there be many who would have
marry reap if they only reaped where
they had themselves sOwn. There
are many men growing rich daily who
do so off the sowings of others, and
some of them live not more than mile
from the Alamo city.
A PROMINENT st. Louis journal
speaking of the two harbOrs of Texas,
prominently presenting their claims
for attention before congress, says:
"There is very little doubt that con-
gress will appropriate money most
readily for the Galveston harbOr, but
all evidence shows that comparatively
small expenditure will give a good
harbor at Arkansas Pass"
There is a whole acre of hard fact in
that little statement. Galveston has
the grit, gas, CAB and greenbacks and
gets there.
THE eastern exchanges with notes
of San Antonio, and Mexico and Aran-
sas Pass and Galveston from the pens
of the editorial eXcursiOnists are
coming in slowly. The impression
of the city and Arkansas Pass was uni
versally favorable judging from the
expressions that come to us in their
letters.

tenn. Applause.
At indianapolis, over 100, 900 Republi-
cans greeted their candidate and ex-
candidate for president. Mr.. Blaine's
speech was principally devoted to the
tariff. In conclusion he said:
Farmers of the west: You have been
complaining of the price of wheat and
enormously charging the fall upon the
protective tariff. Why has wheat fallen
during the last ten years? Because you
have to meet in the markets of Europe
the wheat OF Russia, that is raised in
that vast country with labor that is not
more than to 12 cents day: and, be-
yond that, you are meeting vast imports
of wheat from India, where England has
been expending hundreds of millions of
dollars TO cheaper and expedite trans
portation TO Europe Neglect your home
market and the larger amount you will
find unstable ard the harder will be
your competition with these hard-work-
ed wheat producers on the other side.
Suppose YOU turn half the manufacturers
and mechanics under the basis of free
trade-Suppose you turn half of them
into wheat producers and farmers: isn't
the market of the farmer cut off just
that much and the surplus of his pro-
duct increased: Suppose you add an
other 100, 900, 900 bushels to the product
of the west-where will you market it:
Where will you find the men that are
able to pay for it, who want to eat: Re.
member, gentlemen, i. is the home mar
ket of the United States that every day
is atfording more and more to the agri.
culturists of this country their best mar
iet, and the home market of the United
States is the result, logically and indis
putably, of the protective tariff" Great
applause.

FREE TRADE FALLkClES.
A Categorical Reply to the Wheat-and-
Reaper Argument.

It must be n great comfort to the farmer
to know that when he takes load OF
wheat TO town free trade England makes
the price, but when he wants 10 buy
reaper the high tariff fixes the prices.
Tho foregoing utterance is being pub
lished in the free trade papers and Is
credited to the indianapolis Sentinel.
There are two specific statements in 1t.
and both are false. The first statement
is false absolutely, and the second is
false by implication. The price of the
American farmers wheat is not made
by England alone. Nor does EnGland
make the price of the wheat of the Ger
man. Russian, French, English, or In
dian farmer. The price of wheat Is n
resultant of the action of one force called
demand upon another force named sup
ply. The field Of operation OF each force
is worldwide. When the supply Is large
in proportion to demand-that Is, when
the yield of the wheat fields of the
United States, Russia, India. Germany,
and the other producing countries Is
greater than the average-.he price Is
low, and vice versa. England Is the
great financial center of the world, II
sort of clearing house for the nations
1t registers prices, but it does not make
them. II never has made them and
it never can make them. The needle
points out the position of the magnetic
pole, but it did not put the pole there,
nor is it in the slightest degree response
ble for the poles existence.
That is falsehood No. 1.-The direct,
absolute, unqualified falsehood. Now
for falsehood No. 2-the falsehood by im-
plication. When the farmer buys n
reaper the free trader says 1.-The tariff
fixes the price" So it does, but not in
the sense in which the free trader insin-
yates. He seeks to convey the impres.
sion that reapers are much dearer here
than they are in England, and that the
tariff is responsible for the excess in
price. The opposite is the truth. The
best quality Of reapers--tha reapers in
most exte'.Sive use-are almost If not
quite rs cheap in the Unilei States as
they are in England or any other part ot
the world. OF most other articles which
the farmer or any other labor..r buy.
the same can be said. The tariff is re
sponsible for the price o. relpers, as oi
all other dutIa5!e articles produced
largely in this country. IL this extern
