DENIsoN. TEX, July l4.-About 2
o clock to-day Drew Wood of the White
Elephant saloon lay down on his bed to
take nap. Shortly after he had fallen
asleep he was aroused by a cracking
noise, and looking up he discovered his
bed was on fire. He spralg up and
grasped the bedding and mosquito net
ting, and while attempting to smother
out the flames he was badly burned about
the head, neck, hands and legs. The
right hand was burned badly, while his
meek and head are blistered. How the
accident hapRened is a mystery, as there
had been no IRE or matches about the
room for several days. He will be laid
up for several weeks.

Some of the Southeast brethren take
exception TO the remark made in the
REGISTER few weeks since, that
"when Missouri ceases to send Geo. G..
Vest to the U. S. Senate she ought to
be turned over to the Republicans
or words to that effect. OF course, the
remark was intended to be taken in ii
Pick ickian sense: the poorest Demo
crat is q better Senator than the best
Republican, speaking from the Demo
cratic standpoint. Yet the truth
stands the same that Geo. 6. Vest is
the abIest and one of the truest members
of the party. He has never flickered
in the discharge of his duties, and if
his party were to go back on him ii
would discredIt itself. This is not
Pick wickian.

The NatiOnai Law.

A higher law, than merely human
use of the earth and an absolute right
to the ownership of self; these are
paramount and inalienable; they are
not within the control of majorities,
not even the the consent of the indi-
vidual can deprive him of them.
Equity is the essence of the contract
under which men consent to subordi n
ate themselves to and agree to become
member of organized society.
When society undertakes to curtail
these rights for any portion of its MEM
bers, it's actions outlaw themselves:
they then rest on brute force alone and
violate equity.
Governments were instituted among
men to secure item in these rights
and not to deprive them thereof, by
permitting, granting, or enforcing
special privileges; In creating such,
governments violate the essential con-
tract which underlIes their formation.
The only limit. of these Unborn
rights of men, is the equal right of all
their fellows, a limitation which clear
ly defines them.
The ownership of land is incompati-
BILE with the law of mans existence
and dependence on the earth; it is
based on initial fraud and force, de-
priving the individual of his equal
birthright to the bounties of nature.
Arbitrary restrictions of the freedom
of exchange are precisely similar in
Engagements of the principle of mans
ownership of himself.
The only just and. at the same time.
peaceful means, we possess. of adjust
ing and correcting existing wrongs lie
in the Appropriations of Rent for pub
lie revenue and the total abolition of

att Other. ta1es, restoring tl.,reby unto
oil an equal share in their heritage, OPP
portunsty.
Rent arises from the difference in
fertility, productiveness and general
desirability, between the inferior and
the superior advantages of location.
Thus the Absorb tion of Rent, for pub
lie use, will absorb only that which,
now, is the prime cause of difference in
mems opportunities outside of their
own powers. and, by equalizing these
opportunities, will place all men on an
equality.
1t has been urged that. i'm case this
is done, present owners of land should
be compensated, but the justice of such
compensation is matter of gravest
doubt.
Though these owners, here in good
faith paid just equivalent for the priv
ileges they enjoy, we must not lose
sight of the very principles which I'M
derlie all titles.
Time can not cure fraud; the initial
transaction by which private owner
ship of land came to exist, either by
appropriation, grant or conquest, was
devoid of equity and justice, as to all
the rest, and a violation of the social
contract under which all men have
equal rights. No subsequent transfer
of these usurped privileges could frill
them of fraud.
In view of this, would it not be man
ifestly wrong to tax the laboring mass
es again and make them pay, in COM
pensation, for what was originally
taken and withheld from them?
If compensation is du els it not rather
10 them than from them?
Remember also that the original
wrong was not of temporary and linn
tied nat ure, but that, OH the contrary,
it has curtailed, on the masses of men,
ages of an acenmulatingIy desperate
and cruel life struggle, condeming all
their pos,erity to poverty aud shame
full servilude.
Nor would the solution, offered by
the appropriation of rent, deprive pres
ent holders of what avantages the past
has given them, as in the case of flaw
in title deed, under present laws, would
result; neither would titles or posses
sion be disturbed. 1t would only exact
Of them, for the future, the use value
ofour common heritage the naked land.

An Enormous Dividend.

There has for some time been an urgent
demand for the stock of the st. Joe Lead
Co., under which the market has gone up
from SD and $13 to ST. and SIS. There is
but little stock in the market, and trades in
it are not often made, SO that any inquiry is
likely to send it up few points. That it
should go to SIS, however, was 4 surprise.
The advance was explained this morning by
the stockholders receiving notice from the
Office of the company in New York to the
effect that scrip dividend of SO Is per cent.
had been declared on the capital stock of
81 500, 900, payable to stockholders of record
on December =. The usual quarterly div
idend of per cent. was also declared pay
able December 20. The custom OF the COM
pany has been to declare an extra of 6 or :
per cent. with the December dividend, but
this year the scrip takes it place. The COM
pany has just expended a large amount OF
money in constructing railroad and In I'M
proving IFS machinery. 1t is now expected
that the output will be doubled soon, as i'm
mense discoveries have been made of very
rich ore.-Post Dispatch.
The above shows that upon a capital
stock of 81 800, 900, a total dividend of
al Is per cent, or $500. 900, has been
made. for this year, which is equal to
profit to the Stockholders of Sal .33
upon every 500.
While this is so the common labor
ers at their mines get 81 per day of ten
hours work, and the managers tell
them that on account of the low prices
of lead they can't pay more.
Be it remembered, too, that the
above is the net profit of corporation
whose president, J. Wyman Jones, last
year, at the beginning of the presiden.
tial campaign, rushed into print calling
upon his employees to vote for the party
which pledged protection to"American
homes" American workipgme n" and
American industries" (Uide Bonnie
Terre Register.) 1t seems to US that
while the lead industry has ample pro-
tection-profit of over 40 per cent
that that bonus goes into the pockets
of investors, of employers, and not into
those of the workmen.
o, Hypocrisy and False Pretense! tru-
ly are thy ways many and devious! But
the day is coming when the people
will no longer be deluded, when labor
ers will cease to tax themselves for the
benefit and at the behest Of their en-
ployers, when manufacturing enter
prises Will survive or perish on their
own merits. The first notes of the
death knell of this "infamous system"
of protection to the rich at the expense
of the p lor, sounded few weeks since
from Iowa and Ohio, and in 1892 this
infamy will, at the bar of public opin-
ion, receive it's just sentence.
And the evidence upon which that
judgment will be rendered will be the
enormous dividends of and the small |
wages paid by protected industries like
that Of the st. Joe Lead Company.

From G0otlWater.

Ed. Register-The weather since my last
writing has been quite favorable for out door
empIoyments and farmers hereabouts have
utilized it by making more ample prepare
tons for the severer weather of the next
ten weeks; they have, among other things,
finished gathering corn, stacking and hous-
ing fodder and have done no little to add to
the comfort of their stock by enlarging and
repairing their barns, stables and sheds.
The yield of corn, though far below that
anticipated by farmers hereabouts in early
summer, is fully equal. to the yield estimat-
ed since the drouth.
The swine disease is still depicting the
herds of grunters in this and adjoining COM
munities. Strange to say, in most cases,fat-
tening hogs and others in app rentIy good
condition are among the firsl to succomb to
the almost universally fatal disease. Farm
ers who are so fortunate as to have sur
plus OF live hogs next spring and summer
will no doubt be enabled to dispose OF them
at remuuerative figures.
