TIE Texas school fund has $500, 600 to its credit
and yet the rural Texan journalist continues to

memphis Avalanche.
That 5 a cool thing to come from the
home of venus and tyuuns - The
rural Texan journalist will compare
favorably with the metropolitan yahoo
of the mountains where law is as 'scace'
as the school house. The critics of Texas
are those who view it from afar, and

bushels THE GAZETTE trusts that it has
succeeded in using language familiar to

scutierners as They Are.


The article of A. B. Williams, an ed
itor of Greenville, s. c., contributed to
Harper's Weekly and reprinted in the
Herald, should be diligently read by
every Northern man. The sentiments
of that article have been privately trans
mitted to the president-elect, and will
give General Harrison succinct idea of
the condition of parties at the South.
No broader or ADLER exposition of the
situation has been offered. The feeling
of the white race at the South is depicted
with a candOr that cannot be unduly
praised What the white man thinks,
what he will do, and what he wishes
might be done, are outlined without by
4ocrisy and without bigotry, except so
far as nature, the mother of men, has
instilled race hatreds into the hearts of
her children.
The logic of Mr. Williams is that the
white man can never be taught to admit
the equality of the black, and that the
negro, from the opportunities which time
has brought to him, cannot be expected
to remain a supplicant for the white
man favor. That these two forces
must clash, the writer is as free to be-
lieve as any Chandler or Sherman. But
that the inferior race will ever win, the
writer is as prompt to deny as Chandler
or Sherman would be happy to eencede
For the good OF all whites, there are too
many negroes in America. It was the
whites who brought the slaves hitber,
and it viii be the whites who will, in the
end, be the chief sufferers by the act.
Meanwhile, between nov and that end,
the Ncrtherner, who entirely fails to un-
1erstand the question of climate and
race, would act the wise part if he let
Soutnerners themselves make thelr own
modus yiendi

THOMAS JEFFERSON is quoted by Mrs.
Parsons as having said: God forbid that
any country should be for twenty years
without rebellion. It is not ;mpossi-
bic that Mr.. Jefferson may have said
something about the necessity at times
for political revolution, looking for
ward TO the time OF long Republican rule,
for Jefferson was wise man and eyed
the future with prophetic, ken. The con-
clusion is safe one, however, that JEFF
ferson had less use for anarchy than he
had even for the Republican partv.

In a few words: 1.-The craze for more
immigration into Texas would sudside if
the land laws were changed. The only
reason why Texas does not ill up, fun TO
the neck of small land owners, is due to
the laws. Change them and there will be
no use of immigration associations.

Fuller, George Davis son of the late David

Supreme Court, and a number of Mr..
Swett's comrades in the Mexican war. The
services were conducted by Dr. Withrow,
and DR.. Thomas delivered the funeral
sermon. Dr. Thomas, in closing his re-
marks, referred to the great men of the war
who have passed away. He said: Logan,
Douglas, Grant. Ltacoln, Davis. Our
honored friend Leonard SWEET. honored
and loved in Chicago and by the whole
country. was left to stand alone and to re-
count and tell as could only be told by him,
the strange scenes through which together
they had passed. And now the last one of
that noble company of great men, of whom
Illinois and all the land Will ever be proud,
has gone from our world; and shall we can
we doubt that he has received glad and
joyous welcome on the other shores. and

The casket was covered with profusion
of flowers. The interment took place at

AN INSANE MANS CRIME.
He Kills His Sleeping Guard and Then Brains
His Aged Mother with an Ak.

LEBANON, n. H.. June 1.-THE quiet
community of Meriden, in the town of
Plainfeld, is greatly excited over double
murder perpetrated there this morning.
The scene of the tragedy is q two-story
frame farmhouse about a quarter of mile
from Meriden village, occupied by Mrs. Or
vile Freeman, aged sixty-seven, and her
son Lucien, thirty years old, who carried
on farming. The circumstances are not
fully known. 1t seems, however, that Free
man has been subject to hereditary insane
spells, and although he was not considered
dangerous person, it has been necessary
to watch him closely at these times. A
brother named Fred stayed with him Fri
day and Saturday night. but being unable
to leave his own work, secured John Nor
gan. of Meriden. to go to the home-place
and take care of Lucien. 1t is apparent
that he retired as usual on Monday night.
During the night he left his own room on
the second floor, and going down stairs oc-
cupied bed-lounge. Early in the morning
he arose. and securing an AK, entered Nor
gan's room and gave him two blows with
the ak. Morgan was evidently killed by
the first blow. 1t would seem that Mrs.
Freeman must have been aroused, and, par
tally dressing. had left her room to go to
the kitchen, where she was overtaken by
the murderer ana struck on the head with
the ak. He then left the house, in almost
Q nude condition, and started for Orrvile
Eaton's, distance of two miles, reaching
there about $50 A. NJ, and aroused Mr..
Eaton, who took him into the house. Sub
sequently Lucien told Eaton what he had
done. The sheriff was notified, and arrest
ed Freeman. He showed the sheriff where
he had left the ak, in the pasture near the
house, and it was found, covered with
blood. The prisoner appears perfectly calm,
and readily answers every question.

INGENIOUS PLAN TO DEFRAUD.
How Deputy Assessors Are Said to Have En-
ricbed Themselves by RObbing the County.

CHICAGO, June 1.-THE Daily News states
that it has laid before theEitizens' Associa-
tion the details of plan to defraud the
county out of more than q quarter of a
million dollars in taxes, and calls upon the
assessors of the South and West towns to
nse their utmost vigilance to prevent it. The
conspiracy it is alleged, is among unscru-
pulots employees and ex-employes of the
county. Confederates are sent among
property-owners, who, it is believed. can
be approached with safety, and they
are informed that their taxes can be re-
duced one-half. The fee for such reduction
is to be one-half of the amount saved to the
property-owner. In short, if the taxes were
81, 900 and were reduced to $500 the adjuster
would expect to get $50. The adjuster ar
CUES that the assessment being reduced it
Is safe to assume that ii Will remain
reduced for several years The reduction
is very simple matter. The conspirator
who is trusted empl0ye of the SCISSORS
office, will procure key. and at all times
have access to the blotters or pads upon
which the assessments are entered and ex-
posed to the public for inspection and cor
rection. These blOtters are made out by
districts, and are exposed usually on the
second Tuesday IN June. and for a few days
thereafter. Erasures and corrections hon.
estly made, are of frequent occurrence.
Hence the erasures of the conspirators
wonld not be noticed. The assessor cannot
oversee such matters of detail. Extra men,
bungleTs at that, are employed for DAYS to
write up the books. Everything is done in
a hurry, and men work night and
day, after the inspection is over. TO transfer
corrected figures from the blotters TO the
permanent books. This work is donein such
haste. and In such a perfunctory way that
II propeTty-owner's assessment. which
might be on forty parcels of realty. were
reduced in total from $4,000 to S125. 600
the closest scrutiny would scarce indicate
IL. The conspirators having a detailed de-
seriprIon of lot of property, properly
classified, by means of the trusted employees
key. can IN ten minutes make changes to
defraud the city and county out of hum
dreds of thousands of dollars. 1t is de-
clared that the plan was tried in a small
way last year. ana that the gang netted
$4,000 from il. One of the conspirators is
quoted as saying that he would not take
s100.000 for his share in this years work on
that line. The News informs the assessors
IN these towns that watch will be placed
upon the doings in their Offices.
