restraining order against moving the
county seat from Dungeness. Pros

missioners, on the ground of their
action having been illegal They are
given until August 9th to show
cause why the order shonld not be
made permanent. As they have been
fully heard, and it is hardly likely
that any new evidence will be brought
out, this probably means defeat ot
the Angeles movement. The ARGUS

Never in the history of Port Town
send has it been SO necessary to
keep the people alive and aroused to
the Importance of the times as now.
It may be all we'll enough to remain
passively willing for the ''boom" to
elevate rs into population and wealth.
To any reasoning observer, however,
the proper thing TO do is for every
body to get their shoulders under
the wheels of the boom and push.
Booms do not grow or flourish of
their own accord. They are a result,
not cause. The cause is in the
people themselves This thing Of
going to sleep over a prospec. has
killed many q town. What we want
is live, energetic action. Such action
was began On small scale last year.
Let it be encouraged and assisted,
and let Us act together, and the
wheels OF progress will continue to
move. Ne need manufactures most
Our railroad is the one great thing,
desired as 4 means, as facility; but
we need industries that will employ
Iaborer5. We have room and fine
openings fer 4 dozen manufacturing
industries besides what we already
have. It should be the aim of our
citizens to secure these at the earliest
possible moment Our Business Ex-
change is advertising to secure suit
able sites free for such enterprises.
Lei Us as citizens secure the maua-
facturers.

A Most Unkind Cut.

There is a slight misunderstanding
between McGinnis and his wife's moth
er. 1t came about in this way: Hostel
ter McGinnis is thinking about taking
a trip to Ell Paso for his health. but his
mother-in-law has been telling him that
there is danger OF his being scalped by
Indians. and that he had better stay
right in Austin.
Nonsense replied Hostetter Nc
Ginnis. .'there used to be Indians on
the FL Paso road, but they have all been
driven of. ] don't believe there is an
Indian in the whole country"
'.WelI. well," replied his wife's
mother. when you get out on the
plains, and one Of those wild beasts
come at you yelling and whooping,
then you will think of me-"
II don't doubt it; any thing of that
kind is calculated to mako me think of
you," replied Hostetter McGinnis. and
now the entente cordiale has been
spilled and there is GOODNESS between
them.-Teras Siftings.

Again the Bloody Shirt.

: The bloody shirt revival all along
the line is but another evidence of the
panic among the leaders Of the Repub-
lican party. They are frantically
searching for an tissue" which may
give them some hope Of regaining the
Presidency. It is only a little while
since the Republican politicians pro-
fessei to believe that they had found
such an issue in the tariff question.
They thought to create q panic By
raising false cry of '.free trade. !"
But as time goes on it becomes more
and more evident that the public. and
especially the working-men. are not
as easily scared that way as they were
once. 1t is made palmer every day
that the masses of the people sustain
the Democratic policy Of making the
needed reduction of revenue by taking
of. as tar as possible. the taxes ON the
peoples necessaries. Apparently the
Republican leaders realize that they
can not get another President out Of
the free-trade scare. and in their des-
peration they are casting about for
another tissue" There is nothing
left but that threadbare fraud, the
bloody shirt But necessity knows NO
Law. and in the absence of any thing
better the bloody shirt must again
serve to cover the Republican naked.
