A COMMITTEE of scientists and philos-

they can obtain at home. 1t is & 1egiti-

WDORSIYG TIE GAZETTE

For years THE GAZETTE has been urg-
ing the people and railroads of Texas to
draw closer together, since they had a
common interest in the development of
the state, and now comes Judge Watts,
saying:
1t requires no argument to show that the peo-
pie and railway companies have Z common inter-
est in the development, welfare and prosperity
of the state. They are to q certain extent de-
pendent upon each other, Increased acreage
and production means increased carriage for the
railroads. while the railroads transport the pro-
ducts of the farm to market and bring to the
producer his supplies. The time has come when
the people and railway managers should get to-
gether; when they should understand each other
and cooperate in furtherance of their common
interests, and instead Of war and conflict be-
tween these interests let peace reign between
them. Then the agitator viii cease his clamor-
ing and the country win be blessed.

Tammany Hall Considering Ways and Means
to Get Rid of the Sheriff.
NEW YORK, Aug. lit Is said that
Civil Justice Ambrose Mcneil, who has
gained great deal of undesired no.
toriety through his connection as counsel
with the Flack divorce case, is preparing
a statement to be given to the press, ex-
planning his actions in that now cele-
brated case. There was a well defined
impression abroad last night that the
Tammany leaders are seriously meditat-
ing the best means for freeing the organi-
ZatIon of the burden of Sheriff Flack
and his unsavory history by getting
him out of the sheriff's office
and W. Bourke Cochran returned TO
the city yesterday afternoon and lost no
time in visiting the mayors Office where
he met Mayor Grant, City Chamberlin
Croker and Corporation Counsel Clark.
A long consultation was held in the may
or IS private office, and those who claim
to be familiar with the inner workings of
the wigwam, said last night that the con-
ference related to the easiest and speedi-
est way to GUST Mr.. Flack and put an un-
smlrched man ia his place. There will
be no unseemly haste, but if Mr.. Flack
refuses to resign, means which the law
provides will be put in motion, and Gov
ernor Hill will be appealed to.

Mr.. H. c. PARSONS, leading Repub-
lican in Virginia says the Democratic
party of that state has the best organ
ization in the world. He further says
that Harrison "might not be able to
make his party successful, - that he
can easily defeat it, Six years ago,
when Mahonism was first overthrow,
John S. Barbour was chairman of the
Democratic executive committee. He
divided the counties into districts, and
had lists made of all the voters in the
state, together with statement of how
each man would probably vote Then
influential Democrats were appointed in
each district to visit and talk with the
doubtful ones, and those who belonged
to the opposition, and to influence them,
if possible, to vote the Democratic ticket.
It was the greatest canvass ever made,
and, of course, proved successful.

Wife to Get All She Can and Join Him.


Wife to Get All She Can and Join Him.
Boston, MASS. Aug. IA CORES
pondent of the Herald telegraphs from
Westerly, r. l., that the wife and three
daughters of Treasurer Brown of the
Riverside mills left Noyes Beach yester-
day for their home in Allston Mass.
The correspondent states that they re-
ceiVed a telegram from Brown from
Toronto Saturday and letter from Mon
treal Monday Later information was
to the effect that they had better leave
their summer resort and go to their home
at Allston and secure as much of his
property as they can and at the same time
hold all their own personal property and
see that it is beyond the reach of the
sheriff. After Mrs. Brown has settled
up her affairs she will probably join her
husband in France. as it seems to be the
opinion of the family that they will sail
for that country In the letter Mr..
Brown said nothing about the amount he
had taken or how much he had with him,
but simply gave advice for the family to
realize as much as they could from their
property and join him; he to notify them
as to his whereabouts from time to time.
John B. Brown, a brother of the missing
man, says from information he has
received he is of the opinion Brown will
never come back into New England
again
