DIR. Howard Crosby thinks that suf-
fcient evidence has been obtained to

come to him and he should take sides
with one, and in the continuation of the
fight it should be the one to reap the
worst of it. Then the good doctor would
be sadly put to in finding way out of it.
Some who have lived would have in
quiTed into the merits OF these fractional
quarrels and would have sought to go
with the faction upon whose side was
right. In fact, one there was vino boldly
declared that he had rather be right than
be president. But Dr.. Harrison, having
chosen to be president, it would be too
much TO expect to try also to be right.
And then, too, man could hardly find
himself in the right, no matter what
Republican faction he might train with.
No, no; the good doctor has chosen the
wise plan. II you want to square your
self with the future and have nothing to
take back, always wait until the fight
has made considerable fight and then yell

DANGEROUS PREACHING.

Just so long as clergymen preach on
the spiritual, impelling side OF religion
like st. Paul, everything goes on
smoothly; even If they state it on the
practical side like St. James, they US
ually manage to get along. But
when they begin personal preaching,
more after the manner of Nathan,
they get themselves into trouble
right away. It does not do to
say: 'Thou art the man or
the woman. For instance, q clergyman
in a Pennsylvania town took 1.-The Sin
of the Woman lamar for his text last
Sunday, in which he raked a woman
over the Goals, as he did also an elderly
man. Among other things he said :;
'You know little of the truth, and
you must now know it all. The tine
has come when the SINS of two of&bur
people must be publicly eXposedS If
they have no shame within theIh they
must be shamed by the decent people of
this congregation. They are sitting even
now in our midst, and I do not hesitate
to expose their wickedness - The pas
tor then proceeded with a sermon that
was sharper than a serpent,,s foot d, <and
when he dismissed the congregation there
was intense excitement. No names were
mentioned, but everybody Knew who was
meant The woman took a back path
home and the man hung his head. But
it did not please the majority of that
congregation one bit, and in all human
probability the pastor has seen the be-
ginning of the end of his career as
preacher in that church. He ought to
have stuck to original sin in the abstract,
foreOrdination, conversion, Justification
through the blood of Christ, salvation as
a gift, the trinity, etc. Then he would
not have got into trouble. or made it in
convenient for the woman lamar to sin.

THE London Modern Society says:
''For real, audacious jobbery, commend
rs to America. The relations of our
public men must be filled with envy and
all sorts of evil passions when they hear
of the open handed generosity with which
Gen. Harrison plays the part of Fairy
Godmother to his own connections. The
following members of his family have
already received lucrative appointments
through "pubIic patronage since the
general became president: His brother,
his father-in-law, the father-in- law of
his son, the brother of the husband of
his daughter, the husband of the daugh-
ter of his brother, and the husband of
the nelce of his wife This record beats
that of our own Lord High Jobber
hollow. -

IT IS amusing to note the opinions expressed
BY Texas journals as to who should be the next
governor OF Texas. That is a question which
the people viii solve when the time arrives, and
it Is the opinion of the journal that their choice
will not accord with that OF the great majority
Of the politicians. We shall witness revolu-
ton in matters political in 1890, else the signs of
the times are deceptive.-[La Grange Journal.
According to Governor Gibbs, one of
the shrewdest politicians in the state,
las Texas politics at present is alto
gether a matter Of personal manipulation
I think that candidate will succeed
who is the best manipulation, and who
does the best trading and combining on
the rest of the state ticket. None of
them viii take the chances of helping
make issues or a specific platform. If
they can set the delegates fixed they
viii Les the platform take care of itself. -
1.-The people, rarely have much to do
with governor making unless an issue is
presented. ''PersonaI politics. is likely
to obtain in a state with $50, 600 majority,
and when personal politics control, ''the
people, have precious little TO do with
governor making.

What could be more beautiful than
DR.. Harrison s plan of fractional recog-
milton as outlined in The GAZETTE of
yesterday? When the representatives OF
two warning elements ii the party go to
the president he listens kindly TO their
tales of woe ana says nothing. They re-
turn home and continue the row. When
one side finally inserts its knife in that
part Of the other srde's anatomy in which
it VIII do the most good to the iuserter
and the most harm TO the insertee, the
good doctor welcomes the victor with
open arms and bids a feast be prepared
for him.
Is this not beautiful plan, and wise?
See what world of embarrassing ex-
PLANTATION it saves.
Suppose the good doctor should pursue
the plan that most men do who have the
ordinary red blood of commerce in their
veins. Suppose two factions should

postmaster general had never seen Eurse

soy that the Texas Republicans who re-

THE railroad will be, if it is not now 4,
an issue in Texas politics, and, if Senator
Claiborne was correct, the roads will
have need of their subsidized organs.
Conservative men and newspapers have
attempted to bring the people and the
roads closer together, but the roads have
managed TO widen the chasm, and the
issue is Joined. Whatever the action of
those who manage the roads, the people
should never forget that the roads are
here as factors in the development of
Texas, and should be dealt with as such.

THOSE gentlemen who talk loudly of
the insecurity of life in the South , ,
should widen their vision and see that
murder is not local, and that like
causes produce like effects north as well
as south of Mason and Dixon s line. a
late issue of the Detroit Journal says Of
the ''insecurity OF life in Michigan:
Unless further developments prove it other
wise, the murder of Crawford last evening, in
the heart of the city of Detroit, was the crime
Of two men made ugly and reckless by liquor.
Enraged at Crawford's rebuke of their treat
ment Of their horse they assaulted him and
his companion in the most brutal fashion, killed
one Of them-not Intentionally probably-and
then drove off TO escape arrest. This outrage
upon an unOffending citizen swells the long
annual list OF Michigan murders. It is the
result of liquor drinking, laxity of enforcement
of the laws, and idiotic verdicts like that of the
Jury in the Brule case.
