THERE Is a new political party in
Texas, a party made UP of farmers.
laborers and stock-raisers. They held
a convention at Fort Worth on Tues
day and nominated state ticket.
They also adopted platform in which
they strike right and left, front and
rear. They denounce the Mills bill
because it proposes to place wool on the
free list. This is blow at the Demo
Gratis. Then they denounee the pro-
posed repeal of the internal revenue
laws, which must be regarded as a
direct assault upon the Republican
party which has declared itself in favor
of taking the tax off whisky
and tobacco, the only articles
now paying internal revenue taxes.
Then they demand the abolition of
the national bank system, which must
be interpreted as an attack upon both
tie big parties, and a leaning towards
the defunct GreeRback organization.
The gentlemen decided upon conduct
ing an active campaign, and appointed
a committee to confer with the Union
Laborites, with q view to q consolida-
ton of interests. Every four years the
crsnks organize new parties, and this
years corps promises to be unusually
large. New parties in Texas, however,
viii not do much damage. as that
State is so overwhelmingly Democratic
that tn other organizations never think
it worth while to ask for an official
canvass of the election returns.

CAN 4 MAN BUY HIS WIFE?

Some interesting questions are re-
ferred to the courts of Massachusetts,
for settlement, and some equally inter
esting decisions are rendered by those
courts. The Supreme Court has just
been called upon to decide whether or
not man can bny his own wife, and
has decided in the negative, though the
judges were divided as to the PROPOSE
ton -four being for and three against.
The case was a singular one. The
husband so abused his wife that she felt
herself compelled to leave him. She
employed lawyer to bring suit for di-
vorce and alimony. This alarmed the
husband, who didn't like the idea of his
property being squandered among
lawyers, and who. furthermore, did not
wish to be separated from his wife. Be-
fore the suit was Instituted be made
oVertures to his wife to return and live
with him, and as an Involvement prom
ised to put into the hands OF third
party fer her benefit, his note for s., 600
PAYABLE after his death. Ehe con-
scented, returned and lived with him
until his death, which occurred in
short time. The note was then pre-
scented for payment to the legal repre-
sentatives of the dead husband, but thew
refused to pay it, on the ground that
it was without consideration. The
principle of thelaw is that a promissory
note executed without consideration is
void. 1t muRt appear that the person
signing the promise to pay has received
something OF value as an inducement
to sign. In tkis case it was the agree
ment of the wife to return to her hus-
band and live With him as his wife that
was the consideration of his promise to
pay her S. 900 after his death. 1t IVES
claimed that this was no consideration,
and the majority OF the Court so hold.
They say:
The consideration of the note was the
agreement, or the performance of the wife
to live In marital relations with her bus
band. 1t was not to perform some service
for him which could be hired, as to keep
his house or nurse him in sickness, but to |
give him the fellowship and communion of
wife That is not a service which the
wife can sell or the husband buy Perhaps
a husband can hire his wife to do anything
for him which servant can be hired to do, |
or can buy OF her anything that is the sub,
!ect OF barter; but servant cannot be bred |
10 NIL the marital relations, and the fellow

tween husband and wife.
Three judges held that as the wife had |
good grounds for divorce aud alimony.
and right to refuse to return to her
husband, her agreem ent to return was
a good and valid consideration for his |
promise to pay her the money.

ACCORDING TO tae New York Herald
the first cheer for Harrison in Trenton,
N. j., was ty Chinaman. The Herald
ays of he reception of the news in New
York City:
No one within the gates of the city need
be told that the nomination of Harrison fell
fiat. No cheers went up from the crowd
who watched the bulletin boards, and no
shouts of "HarrisoIr' "HarrisonW an
nounced that the Republicans gladly &C
cepted the man from Indiana as their leader
in the coming contest for the occupancy of
the White House. Those signs and sounds
which are noticeable when the penrie hear
that their representatives in convention as
sembled have given them as leader the
man of their choice were neither seen nor
heard. The news flashed from Chicago;
the news of the convention for which the
people had been anxiously expectant, came
and-it fell fiat.

THE BULLION BECK EUREKA
SETTLEMENT,

Everybody hereabouts will be pleased
with the announcement in Wednesdays
HERALD that the dispute between the
Eureka and the Bullion-Beck compa-
MES, Tintic, has been settled, and the
litigation discontinued. The terms of
agreement are said to be not only hon
orabIe to all parties concerned,
but entirely satisfactory TO the suitors;
but as to these terms We care nothing,
nor does the public. They simply con-
Germ the owners of the mines, who
alone were to be consulted as to them.
The public, however, is interested in an
other direction. Here are two highly
valuable propertios-mines which have
demonstrated that they are immensely
rich. Millions in value Of the precious
metals1, eel taken from them and
distr bu the community. That
there ar, hlther millions in the mines is
well understood, but While the proper
ties were IL litigation the lodges could
not be worked to the best advantage.
This was especially true Of the
Builion-Eeck which was hampered by
an adverse decision, Now that the
mines are out of court and each knows
EXACTLY its rights, how far it may go
and at what point it must stop, it may
be expected that the properties will be
worked more vigorously than ever,
and made to contribute of their vast
wealth. The BulliOn-Beck has for a
year or two been the property OF an
association of Californians, all rich men
and all men of enterprise. They pur-
chased the mine only after a careful
examination and they had satisfied
themselves that it was most valuable
property. 1t has been understood that
they have delayed development opera
lions on large scale only until the
litigation was settled, when they in
tended to work the mine for all it was
worth. We may therefore, soon look
for some good and booming news
concerning operations at this mine.
It is in the hands of the right kind Of
men.

HARRISON CHINESE RECORD.

The Republicans are already exerting
themselves to the utmost to explain
away General Harr;son's record on the
Chinese immigration question, and are
doing all they can to make it appear
that their candidate is opposed to the
admission Of the Mongolians. 1t will
not be surprising ii before the campaign
shall fairly open, Harrison will be
torcea to corae out against his record,
and declare that he is in perfect accord
With the political blatherskites who
would violate Constitution. laws and
republican doctrines generally in order
to please certain E2bble of the sand-Iot
order concerning this matter of Chinese
immigration. We rather like General
Harris IA for the position he took on
the densgogue anti-Chincse bills. His
position was broadly American. The
mans ideas of right, of law and of
justice were above party politics, and
ne should be commended rather than
condemned for what he did and said in
opposition to bills which ought never
to have been introduced in any Ameri-
can Congress.
But his party :s q party OF deme-
gegues, who fear that the workingmen

the effort to explain away his utter
ances. Unfortunately for the Repub-
licans, the record has been made up,
and cannot be changed, no matter how
much lying they may do. General Har-
rison may say what he will as to his
present attitude on the Chinese ques-
ton, but he cannot call in question his
own record as set out in the Congress
SIGNAL Record while he was in the Senate.
TIE Pecord has been carefully exam
ined, and it shows that from the intro
duction of the first an4i-Chinese bill to
the passage of the law now in force.
Harrison was an active opponent of
every Chinese restriction measure. On
every occasion when he was present.
he voted against the bills at every stage
and when absent he was paired with
supporters of the bills. A Republican
journal prints the details as follows:
At the first session of the Forty-seventh
Congress, Congressman Miller (rep.) of
| California, introduced q bill to restrict the
immigration OF Chinese laborers to the Uni
| ted States. The bill was referred to the
Senate Committee on Foreign Relations.
