BINDING THYME IN THE SENATE.
When thu senate refused last week TO
put binding twine on the free list, it was
guilty of a base and traitorous act
Every Western senator who voted against
Senator Davis amendment to that effect
earned and should be made TO feel the
contempt and detestatiou of every farm
er in the land. He ought to be scourged
and undisguised enemy to the public in
general, and the farmer in particular.
Benedict Arnold's treason was of q
higher grade of infamy, If one may so
speak of it, than the base and trucking
servitude of some Western plutocratio
senators to the trusts and combines which
their party promised to Danish.
The twine trust is one of the most gall
ing on the farmer, and adds millions to
the cost of harvesting the grain of q
single state. The year in which the
trust was organized, it doubled the price
of binding twine, as the cotton bagging
trust did with Its product, and has, of
course, kept it as high a. tfthe traffic
will bear'' ever since. Farmers who
complain that they are not allowed all
the money they need to trade with, who
fancy themselves wronged and oppressed
into Alliance or other organizations as
they are doing in the West, have voted
for years, aud will do so again and again
for the very traitors and deceivers who
have sold them out bag and
baggage to the trusts, and will do SO
every time an opportunity offers. These
farmers should think of the robbery of
the binding Irvine trust, and prepare to
lop of the head of every congressman
or senator from their section who failed
to vote against the twins tariff. Until
they do that religious duty they have no
right to ask for any fsyors from con-
gress. Congress, like God, helps those
who helps themselves. There are a
dozen Western senators and three times
as many congressman whom the farmers
of that section ought TO bury in political
oblivion for having betrayed thsir inter-
ests Systematically for years, before men,
tioning money, free coinage, banks or the
sub-treasury bill. Let them first do their
duty, and correct the evil which only
they can correct, and congress will do
the rest. When they quit sending Bens-
dict Arnolds TO congress, and show their
TO behesd any man who
betrsys them to trust or combine, they
will be taken care Of as they deserve.
When they retire ingalls,, Msnderson,
Paddock, Cullom, Farwell and few
more, they will have accomplished far
more for their own interest than they

THE mayor and city council of Marlin
appear to have acted in very bumptious
and refractory manner in forcing Gov
ernor Ross to the extreme of issuing q
proclamation to the sheriff of Falls coun-
~ commanding him to smash the silly
quarantine against Waco. Having de-
clared under information from the state
health officer that no cause for quaran-
tine existed, aud that it should be re-
moved, the governor could do no less,
when defied, than resort to force in the
interest both of official dignity and the
convenience of the public, long enough
disconnected and worried.

Letting n Bird Go.

The Fort Worth and Albuquerque rail-
road is reported as being in a very bad
condition and liable to fall through, and
THE GAZETTE is urging the people of that
city to arouse to a sense OF duty and re-
vive an interest in it, and not let it go
the way of the Dallas, Archer and Pa
cihc.
II Fort Worth is awake TO its own in
terest she will see that road is built. She
eau not afford TO let it go by default.
The great West, the counties of Jack :,
Young, Throckmorton, Haskell, Stone
wall and others on the di-
rect line are grasping for this road and
standing ready and willing to put their
shoulders to the wheel and encourage
this enterprise.
The building of this road would open
up to Fort Worth one of the best sections
of the state, the trade of which she
would secure, but if che neglects this all
important country till some other road
breakes In, she will lose the bird that
would make her rich.

THAT professional train robber should
be troubled with heart is hardly TO

for completely in the robbery of Mis-
souri, Pacific train, about twenty miles

JUDGE CHRISTIANCY.

Judge Christiancy, formerly of the su-
preme court of Michigan, United States
senator and minister to Peru, is said to
be dying in poverty at Lansing, Mich
He occupied an exalted station, and
too, that he honored some years ago
when he became smitten with the beauty
of department clerk at Washington, q
young woman of exquisite charms, whom
he made his wife. He was old and she
was young. II was another case of
January aud May. A scandal and subse-
quent separation followed. He procured
a divorce from the giddy siren and be-
came a changed man ever since, the
victim OF circumstances and saddened
spirit. There is moral in this for those
who stand in need of one.

THE counties through which the Fort
Worth and Albuquerque road would run
are richer and more populous than were
the counties through which the Fort
Worth and Denver was built eight years
ago. It paid the Denver and it will pay
the Albuquerque. The old guard should
rally. Death has diminished their num-
Der, but there are enough of them left
10 do this thing if they but will it.

THE legality of sntebellum slave
marriages is being tested in one of the
courts at Washington City. A colored
man, servant OF Gen. Meigs and
formerly a slave recently died intestate.
Among many of the claimants of the
right to administer and inherit is u man
averrlng to be his son, although the
owner of the estate had been frequently
heard to declare he had no children.
The accumulation of property by ex-
slaves is likely to lead to litigation in
order to determine the rightful heirs IN
many such cases.

disposing of the wool schedules two or
three days ago. He stormed against the
wool tariff; showed that the price of fine
merino wool in Kansas was less than the
duty on it; declared that wool should go

Standing IN Its Own Light.

The Fort Worth GAZETTE makes a
strong plea for the completion of the AL
buquerQue road to Sprngtown, if no fur
Their. This appears to be a very necessary
enterprise TO that thriving city, and that
it is permitted TO lag, and even 10 drop,
considering its importance, will excite
surprise. The country which this road
would penetrate after leaving Springtown
IN the direction of Albuquerque Is in
creasing in population only second to the
favored Panhandle country, and its COM
mercial necessities will soon demand the
construction of n road. The Fort doubt
less knows its own business best, but to
an uninterested observer il would seem
TO be standing in its own sunlight by not
building this road.

morning of this week the case against j I.
T. Morris, charged with murder was
called and having no counsel, the court
appointed W. H. Woodman and L. d.
Miller of Mobeetie and Thomas P. Clay
of this place to defend him. Ths at
torneys at once filed motion for q change
of venue, which WAS oveIrulsd. They
then went to trial, and after examining
250 jurors only one was selected, all
having formed an opinion. The judge
thought 1t useless to try further, as every
one seemed disqualified, so he granted q
change of venue to Hardeman county
where the case will be tried, by agree
ment of the attorneys, on the 10Th day Of
September at Quanah, district court be-
ing in session there at that time.
Charles Smell, charged with murder,
