Factories and Freight Rates,
Colorado Citizen.


The Fort Worth GAZETTE remarks thai
"Texas wants factories, and Texas is
resolved to have them,' which may be
construed to imply that THE GAZETTE
fsvors the railway commission. Few
factories can flourish in Texas when tor
the sake of the transportation of the rs
materials beyond our borders and the
return of the same after manufacture
the railroads levy freight tariff which
is practically a prohibition of manufac-
tories in Texas. Our city engineer tells
US that he can secure piping and other
material for the waterworks here al as
cheap or cheaper freight rates from st.
Louis or Pittsburg as from New Biz
mingham, Tex, though there is so
much difference in the distance, which
does not show up well for the msuufact-
ure of iron in New Birmingham. ~
inquiry into the reason why this and
similar facts exist comes within the
province OF the people.

The American sets up a mighty
howl against the methods of the Bax-
terites in carrying Knox county for
their man. and we agree with the
American that it is a monstrous out
rage against all honesty, fairness and
decency, If as reported. But then it
was no worse than the methods re-
sorted to in Memphis, if as bad, in
behalf of Uncle Josiah to defeat
Speaker Clapp. That is, if the state
ment of Mr.. Clapp is worth anything,
and we take it that Mr.. Clapp is in
every sense as reliable as the Ameri-
cans Knoxville correspondent, yet
the good American had not word
of condemnation for the Patterson
ties. Uncle Josiah had the old sow
by the tail then now Cousin Jere
has it, and Uncle Josiah is a razor
back. 1t makes all the difference
whose OK is gored.

The Cause Of Poor Health

Is often found in the neglect of ones
own self. A light cold or slight head
ache is treated as not requiring much
attention; the assumption being that
they will soon pass off, and it is only
when a case of full-fedged sickness de-
velops Itself that the consequences of
that neglect are fully realized. AS a
preventive and positive cure for Conghs,
Colds, Hoarseness, Splitting of blood,
Asthma, Pains in the Chest and first
stages of consumption, use Eilert's Ex-
tract of Tar and Wild Cherry, and for
sick Headache, Torpid Liver, Dys-
pepsia, Nervousness and all Bilious
Complaints, use Eilert's Daylight Liver
Pills. Both are guaranteed.

Sessions of the High School.

Some weeks age petition was presented
to the School Committee asking the discon.
tlnuance of the Saturday session of the
High School, The allegation of the petition
ers was in substance that the pupils of that
school were suffering from excessive mental
strain, were breaking down many of them.
and needed the relief of a Saturday holiday
Inc committee appointed q subcommittee
10 Investigate the subject and report. Last
night they reported. In substance their re-.
port is that they have investigated the alle-
cations OF the petitioners and found them
exaggerated and misleading. yet in view of
tne TACT that the petitioners are very respect
able people, and quite numerous, they have
concluded to grant their request. AT the
same time they give notice that it wal he
necessary to do the same amount of work
under the new arrangement as under the old.
In one important department at least.
the only difference being that it will have to
be done in five sessions of school instead of
six. Thus. relief from the excessive mental
strain that is complained of is to be secured
by reducing the hours of running the ma
chinery and making up the deficiency by in.
creasing the speed. 1t strikes us that this
programme is much better calculated to in
crease mental strain than to diminish n
The logic of the situation pointed unmis.

The State Of Dakota had before its people
when 1t accepted its State constitution pro-
position to establish the principle of minor
ity representation. The operation of such
principle would have been to make the rep
resentation of the State bear some proper
ton to the relative strength Of the parties,
instead of giving 1t all to the majority. For
instance, in State senatorial division which
has. say five senators, all the senators 60 to
the majority party, even though the ma
iority may be very small. Under the other
plan the minority party would have part
of the senators, say TWO, while the majority
would have three. 1t is plain that in this
way the representation is much more &C
curate than when everything goes to the ma
iority. Dakota rejected the plan, wisely
very likely. 1t has not been tried in this
country. and new State Of all others does
we'll to steer clear of experiments. In other
States majority representation works very
well, and in general there seems to be no de-
mand for a change. Occasionally, however,
a case comes to attention where large min
ority is obscured when 1t merits more inhu-
ence. There is case of this sort is Mis-
souri,, which passes for one of the most dyed
in the wool Democratic States in the Union.
For years the Republican party of Missouri
has been heard Of very little. Many persons
no doubt will be surprised to learn that there

and Michigan alone, taking the figures Tor

1880 more votes to Harrison than to Cleye-
land, larger plurality than was furnished
the Republican candidate by any other State
except Pennsylvania, which gave a few hun.
dred In excess of this. but Missouri cast over
1000 more Republican votes, than Kansas,
Inc Republican vote of Missouri in 1888 was
more than half as large as the entire Repub
ncan vote Of the six New England States.
Yet this great party has no influence in its
own State or In the vote of the electoral col
iege. Minority representation would of
course give this great party a voice proper
tlonate to its size. This is certainly a case
where minority representation would have
one advantage.
