place in the heart of every member.
So general was the attention paid us
by every one we met that it would
require columns ofspace to personate,
but we cannot close this article with
out word of thanks to Mr.. l.. M.
Gregory, secretary of the Southwest
Texas Immigration Association,
for many special acts Of kindness.
He, in common with the entire
citizens committees and many others,
were untiring in their efforts to make
the visit OF the editors pleasant. We
must also not forget TO mention the
reception rendered the Association
by the San Antonio Club at their
elegant rooms in the Open House
building. One of the pleasantest
evenings Of the meeting was spent
there.
Our hand would tire and our pencil
give out long ere we could but
briefly mention all the attractions
and advantages of San Antonio as
a health resOrt,as an interesting place
for the tourist, or as an inviting field
for business investment. 1t is a
growing, thriving, progressive city,
and has a future before it, the bright
ness Of which cannot be eclipsed by
any other Texas city. If we wanted
to locate insTeXas we W ould be salts
fed with San Antonio without seek
ing further.
OFF FOR MEXICO.
At2 O'Clock on Saturday afternoon,
Nov 24th, the Association left San
Antonio for the city of Mexico, over
the International and Great North 1rn
Railroad as far as Laredo, on tn c
most attractive train that ever
passed through the state. Extend
ing from one end to the other of
every coach on the outsides, were
streamers on which was painted in
large letters, National Editorial
Association,' and in addition the
coaches we're tastefully festooned in
bunting of the National colors Of the
United States and Mexico. We
crossed the Rio Grande about nine
O'Clock ut night, spent eight days in
the republic Of Mexico, and returning
visited several points along the
gulf coast of Texas, but this article is
already too long, 50 we will have to
bid You adieu with the familiar
phraze Of the story papers, "to be
continued in our next"

from his heart say "God speed YOU"
To their patrons he would say, grum-

THE new General Assembly of
Tennessee will convene at Nashville
on the first Monday in January, that
being the 18th day of the month. AS
usual, a month or more Of valuable
time will probably be squandered in
the election of officers and a L. S.
Senator, and but little more than halt
of the session will be devoted to real
legislative work. That will be suffi-
cient, however, to do a great deal OF
good, and much more of mischief.

Ir IS a genuine pleasure to ride on
main line passenger train of the
Nashville, Chattanooga & st. Louis
Railway after running around upon
other roads Of the country for a few
weeks. You can't imagine what a
contrast there is until yuu try it once.
1t is by long odds the best road bed,
the best equipped line, and also the
best managed road in the South. We
give this testimony voluntarily and
cheerfully after five thousand mile
Journey over a number of different
roads. All the passenger coaches Of
the n. c. q st. L., are kept as neat
and clean as 4 Pullman sleeper, the
toilet rooms are always supplied with
water, soap, towels, combs and
brushes, the conductors and porters
are attentive to every want of passen-
gers, their trains are always on time,
and the schedule time of all trains is
fast. We could say good deal more
but will stop at this for fear some
reader may think we are too cnthusi-
astic.

YHE farmer, according to Mr..
Mills, obtained Sl.50 for his wheat
in 1856, in the old Demo ,ratic
days. The price is lower now, he
says, and therefore the tariff must
have lowered it. But the farmer
| got prices ranging from 1920 to
SO. 40 bushel for his wheat in
1866, $3.50 to SO. 40 in 1867 and
S2.05 to s3.25 in 1868. Even as
recently as 1877 the price was as
high as s1.S5. IL Mr.. Mill con-
tsuIts the records he will learn that
the Democratic party had been
driven from power and the free
trade policy had, been discarded
long before the earliest of the years
here mentioned. In the year 1856
when wheat brought sl.5O a bushel
the worlds production was far
smaller than it is now, even in
proportion to the demand. Russia
provided but little then for expor-
tation compared, with the present
time, the American surplus was
small while india, as a source of
supply for the European market,
was undreamed Of.

TIMBER Am LAND SPIES.


OyE Of the most pernicious sys-
TENS ever inaugurated by any ad,
ministration is that Of espionage 10y
the interior department over the
lands and timbers of the govern
ment While the Democratic pa
pers are howling about the Demo
cratic administration throwing
thousands of, acres of land open to
settlements, the. same administra-
tion is employing scores of spies to
harass and annoy bona fide settlers
and to prevent them from getting
this land except through the great
est annoyance and IN some instances
through prosecution. A number
of men employ ed by the admins
tration in its earlier history found,
on assuming the duties that, the
work required Of them, was repul-
sive to their sense of honor and
disgustingly threw up their appoint,
ments. Everything seems to be
working serenely now, however, for
the Washington officials from the
tone Of the press throughout the
great west and southwest. Not a
single paper have we yet seen which
endorses this action of government;
The motto of the interior depart
ment seems to be that "every man
who wants government land to
build for himself and family home
is supposed to be a land, thief and
swindler until he proves himself
different and every man who wants
cord Of wood or thousand. feet of
lumber for domestic purposes is
also thief" When it can secure
an entire corps of special agents
who are willing to act on these pre-
sumptions the department will have
pretty smooth sailing in protecting
the government land from settle
ment by honest citizens and they
are making very rapid headway in
that direction already.--Journal-

THUBMA>'s LETTER.

Mr.. THURMAN's letter of accep-
tance is not of the slightest value as
an addition to the literature of the
campaign. He only repeats the
substance of his free-trade speeches
made in the Western States not
long after his nomination, and airs
again those economic heresies for
which he was chided when he origi-
mated them.
He says, among other things;
"We say, Give to the masses of the
people cheap and good clothing,
cheap blankets, cheap tools and
cheap lumber" The old gentle
man must be strangely Llind to
what is going on about him, or he
would know that the Republican
party has already done just what he
says should be done. He ought to
know, if he does not, that the peo-
pie today have cheaper and better
clothing, cheaper blankets and
tcheaPsr tools thar they ever ha |
under free trade; and that if lumber
is not cheaper it is not on account
of the duty imposed on it, but
because Of the gradual decrease Of
the supply, and that all the effect
of removal Of the duty would be
to compel us to buy Canadian lum
Der at the price which Canada might
choose TO ask for it
Thurman does not belong to thi,
age or time. His idess of politica,
economy, of the tariff, of the labor
question, are those of the old-timt
free-trade theorists, which are sue.
cessfully contradicted every day by
the stern loge Of facts. Nc. man
who DIMES the wonderful progress
and present prosperity of the people
of the United States, as Mr.. Thur
man does, can be safe guide Oh
counselor in public affairs.
