The Homestead Law.

FORT WORTH, TEX, March 8, 1888
To the Editor of the Gazette.
There is q certain class OF men in Texas
who make hay by lending money, and are
sometimes perpIexed because they find it
difficult TO oDtsin good security, owing TO
the homestead law, men who imsgine
that that provision is most unHise and
vicious. This class Ut men, looking from
heir standpoint of per onsl interest, see
in The measure the shadow of dark
calamity and imagine thai It's repeal
would trlrg peace and prosperity There
are others WHO think it strange that the
laws Of the state should exercise such pa
ternal Jurisdiction over them, and go SO
fsr as TO prevent citizens from giving in
pledge their own property, even for
money with which to improve said prop
erty. There sJe standpoints from which
the homestead law looks unjust aud IN
wise, and surely pit could be bene flied by
modification, but that it is & wise and
benefcent provision cSn be shown by
comparing the homestesds OF Texas, free
from encumbrsnce, with homesteads 10

som, thing about the Appointment and
Retention IN Office of Deputy Collector
Harris

Retention IN Office of Deputy Collector
Harris.
AUSTIN, TEX, March S, 1888.
To the Editor of the Gazette.
My attention has been called to several
articles appearing in the Waco Examiner,
r, fectirg on United States Senator Coke
ard Colonel Isham G SssTcy, collector OF
internal revenue, relative to the appoint
mtnt, aud retention in office, of Mr.. Z
X. H9rris, deputy collector of the divis-
ion Of which Waco is headquarters.
In justice TO the gentlemen ABOVE men
toned, deem it pToper to make the fol-
lowing statement, viz: Colonel Searcy
rendered me the Waco deputyship, but
upon examination found the pay WAS
smaller than l had expected, therefore |
ssked for aOd obtained the chief deputy
snip at Austin, where the salary was
larger. Waco WAS then and is yet nv
home. As Mr.. Harris had been promised
place at Austin, this necessitsted his
assignment to Waco, By Colonel Searcy
lam positive that Mr.. Harris does not
owe mis- appointment to any influence OF
Senator Coke.
There seems to be some misapprehen-
sion concerning the duties Of d puties OF
divisions.
Ia addition to being required to visit
each brewery, cigar mandatory, whole
So liquor dealer and rectifler in their di-
visions monthly, they are required to
nvsss their entire divisions once every
three months, TO see that the internal
revenue laws are properly observed.
Moreover, when revenue agents, direct
from Washington, are examining col
IectOr's offices, they are very particular
to ascertain If the deputies use up their
travelling allowance. II not used, as re-
quired, it is always reported to Wash
lDglon. Mr.. Harris is and has been 8
resident Of ana land owner in Texas for
over ten years, is thoroughly competent
and is s stSunch Democrat.
Colonel Searcy has given bond to the
government In cum largely exceeding
800 coo for the faithful discharge Of his
duties, and regard the appointment Of
his deputies as personal uust, and be-
ing responsible for their official acts,
certainly in making appointments he
should guard closely the interests Of his
bondsmen. R spsctfully,

The EPISCOPAL Eoc,absc.

On Friday evening the commodi-
Gus residence of Mrs. S. c.. Wright
was thrown open for the Episcopal
sociable. By eight o'clock the
place was SO packed with people
that .'standing room only" was the
rule. Although the ladies OF the
parish had made preparations for a
large crowd they found a good deal
bigger one than was expected on
their hands, but Mrs. Wright was
equal to the emergency, and every
one was amply entertained. In ad-
dition to the usual amusements,
Mrs. Lieutenant Governor Davis re-
cited a poem illustrating an incident
OF Sherman's march through Geor-
gia, Mrs. Jones poem apropos of
Arbor Day, and there was vocal
and instrumental music by Miss
VallIe French, Miss Venie Rinckel
and Miss Henrietta Olcovich. All
were heartily applauded, and at the
close of these pleasing exercises q
lavish supper was served in the big
dining hall where there was room
for fifty guests at once. 1t was the
largest Episcopal sociable held in
this city for several years, and 100
guests were entertained in a man.
ner which elected much praise for
the way in which Mr.. and Mrs.
Wright made everyone feel entirely
at home.
