Los Angeles daily herald., 1888-10-07

1t is not necessary to dwell upon the
merits of the opposing claims. 1t ap-
pears that before the very eyes OF these
despairing husbands and fathers, these
barons of transportation were declaring
large profits. During the very hours OF
this conflict the Baltimore and Ohio
road declared 10 per cent dividend and
the Pennsylvania line an per cent. But
these pictures of bloodshed, of the starv-
ing wife, the half-clad children bending
over the lifeless form of husband and
father, were held up in vivid and fright
full reality before the people of the
Hoosier capital, and vet there were some
who favored the promptest preparations
for repetition of the scenes in other
cities, and General Benjamin Harrison
was among the earliest advocates of the
movement.
With his commanding influence he
drew many with him and was supported,
then as now, by the Indianapolis Journal
and the Euening News. The feeling
aroused by such leader and two power
full dailies is shown by incidents and ut
terances recorded at the time. There
was no need of fight.
The prayerful protests of the en-
ployees was again being "further driven
to the wall" They believed in the
pure justice of their demands; that the
last cut should be restored; that they
should not be pressed below the surface

ASA ii. WILLIE.

The dispatches from Galveston tell OF
the resignation of Chief Justice Asa HOxie
Willie, of the state supreme court. Judge
Willie leaves the bench to re-enter the
practice of law in Galveston. He is Just
in the prime of life, being only in his
Both year, and the state, by this action,
loses many years service from this able
jurist. He has resigned not because he
is overtaxed with his orowding duties and
the grave and heavy responsibilities of
his position; he does not complain of
this, but he is compelled to leave the
bench because he cannot afford
longer to remain on it. The
pitiful salary of $4,000 will not support
him and his family in the circuits he is
compelled TO make to attend the different
sittings of his court. This is n disgrace
to Texas. She offers her judges a pit
lance, which any second-class lawyer
should yearly earn, and at such salary
bhe expects to secure, as matter of
course, the best talent in the state. That
good men for supreme judges have
hitherto been secured, is rather a matter
of providential good luck than any merit
on the part of the state. But now, when
the state is being euthused with the sp iri
of growth, when new life and enterprise
are beginning to pour in and men are
found rushing ahead in the mad scramble
for money and power, she need
not longer expect to find good
servants willing to do her work
at such starvation prices. At the last ses
sion OF the legislature this question was
before both houses, and the senate tried to
fix the salary at $4,000 but the deleotable
house cut it down to $500, and that
amount was placed in the judiciary CON
stitutIonal amendment that was defeated
in August before the people. The amend
ment was defeated in lump with the
other amendments, not because of any
serious objection that could be had to it
Daring the salary of the judges), but be-
cause the people had no faith in anything
proposed by the twentieth legislature. If
a salary of $4,000 or $1,000 was placed
before the people of the state to-day, it
would be voted by an overwhelming IN
jority.
But in this instance it is too late to
lament what has happened Judge Willie
has resigned and that ends the matter.
He has made for six years an able,
courteous and thoroughly efficient chief
justice. He stands very high in the re-
gard of the people of the entire state, and
would, without question of doubt, have |
been re elected in November to another |
term of Office. The state has received !
blow in his resignation, blow whose
force has been doubled and whose disgrace
is Increased by the cause that gave occa-
sion for the resignation. For Judge Willie
in his future field of labor we have the
best good wishes, the chiefest of which il
he may never have client as unappre-
ciative of his efforts as the pitiful price
put upon his merit would indicate the
state has always been.
The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1888-02-23

enteen years old he quit farm life and
served from that time until he
was of age as apprentice to a
blacksmith. In his twenty-fourth year
without an instructor he began the study
of law. He later entered the University
of Louisville, and graduated in law in 1856.
The same year he emigrated to Texas,
and was admitted to the bar in Fsyette
county. He served in the southern army
during the war, rising from private to
captaincy. In 1871 he moved TO Vic
toria, and still claims that place as his
home. In November, 1881, Governor
Roberts appointed him an associate
justice of the supreme court, and, in 1882,
he was elected to the same position for
full term. In 1884 the people of the Seventh
congressional district wished Judge Stay
ton to allow them to use his name in the
race for congress. But in The STATES
MAN of June 3, 1884, while the su-
preme court was sitting at Aus
tin, was printed petition TO
Judge Stayton signed by over sixty law
yers then in attendance at the court, urg-
ing him not to resign his seat upon the
bench. Judge Stayton replied he would
not become candidate for congress.
His whole course, while upon the su-
preme bench, has been distinguished by
marked ability, an exhibition of a great
fund of legal learning, and an exemplif-
cation of the highest traits of noble and
honorable manhood. He is held in great
regard by the entire bench and bar of the
state, and his promotion to the head of
the supreme court will be received all
over the state with satisfaction and con-
gratulations.

100000 COPIES.
Special Immigration Edition Of
The Statesman.

The Statesman.
The STATESMAN is now preparing, and,
about the last of February, will issue
special immigration edition of 100000
copies. 1t will be the most accurate and
complete compendium of general infor-
nation about Texas that has ever been
published. 1t will embrace exhaustive re-
ports of our public and private lands, state
and county school lands, and school facil-
tiles; our agricultural, livestock, com
mercial, mineral, manufacturing and other
industrial resources. While this edition
will be a state paper, we propose giving
county and local affairs careful and de-
tailed attention.
Our facilities enable us to make a full
and accurate exhibit of the conditions of
the state and of the counties az they actu-
ally exist, which cannot be duplicated by
any other agency in the state.
The following resolution approving the
proposed action of The STATEsMAN was
unanimously adopted by the executive
committee OF the State Bureau of Immi-
grafton
Resolved, That the executive commit
tee of the Texas state immigration com
mittee heartily approves of the enterprise
of the AUSTIN STATEsMAN PUBLI7HINd
COMPANY in publishing special issue of
ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND COPIES OF The
STATESMAN, and, believing the contents to
be a truthful and fair representation of
the resources, finances, etc, of the state,
We commend it to all persons seeking in
formation about Texas, and also to our
local immigration organizations for use
by them.

MR.. BurLER,s SPLENDID OFFER.

There is a kind of public spirit that
exhausts itself in glazing generalities, in
large talk and 70 actual results. This
kind of public spirit is as cheap as it is
nauseating. Austin has its full quota of
men who are public spirited in this way;
but Mr.. NJ. Butler is not one of such
class. He is a solid, squarely built public
spirited man, of the most approved and
modern type. What he says he means,
and is always ready to back his promises
with prompt action-he strikes even while
he speaks. Mr.. Butler is now to the front
with a proposition that has the ring
of pure gold about. 1t is a proposition
that has the smack Of Kansas City or
Denver about it; it Is the most advanced,
thorough thing of the kind ever offered to
the board of trade will purchase suitable
site and consent to have an opera house
connected with their building, he will put
up the building and take off their hands
every dollar of the necessary bonds Issued
thereon they may wish to dispose Of
HIS idea is to put up an eighty or hun
dred thousand dollar building; hav-
ing enough room for board of
trade hall and several club rooms,
and in addition an opera house that
can not be rivalled in Texas. How does it
strike you? Isn't there business in the
proposition? isn't there practicability and
feasibility about it? isn't there promise of
a glorious thing for Austin? The board
of trade should, with avidity, jump at the
offer. Mr.. Butler has the means and the
grit to carry out the plan, and it remains
with the board of trade whether he will
have the opportunity.

GALVESTON, February 15.-For several
days rumOrs have been current in legal
circles that Chief Justice Asa H. Willie
was contemplating resigning his Office for
the purpose of entering the we'll known
law firm of Bsllinger, Mott g. Ballinger as
successor to the late lemented Judge w.
p. BalliDger. The rumors were verified
10 day by members of the firm and bv
Judge Willie himself.
In an interview this evening the chief
Justice stated to your correspondent that
he had accepted the proposition
from Maj. NJ. f. Mott and Thomas ],
Ballinger to form CO. partnership for
the practice of law under the firm mama
OF Willie, Mott d. Ballinger. Judge Willie
stated hat his resignation of the Office of
chief justice had been signed and wouJd
be forwarded to Governor Ross bv IT,
nights mail, to take effect on March
3 next. This announcement excires
great interest in legal circles here, and
Will doubtless create something of a sen
sation in political and legal circle.
throughout the state at large.
Judge Willie was first elected associate
Justice of the supreme court in 1866. with
Senator Coke, Judge S. P. Donley, George
f; Moore and George W. Smith, all If
whom were removed by the federal mill
tary authorities. He then removed from,
Marshall, Tex, to Calves on, and formal

IN 1877 he was chosen Congressman AT
large, serving one term, and declinino

In November, 1892, he was electsd cbios

just the kind of spirit that it requires to
make all such movements a success, and
it is just the spirit that must be infused
into the state and our county immigra-

any material beneficial results therefrom.
