THE TARIFFITES ALARMED.

Senator Edmunds' resolution calling
for restricted debate on the tariff bill
proves that even he who but q short time
ago boosted of the free discussion in the
senate is growing alarmed over the pub
licity that is being given to the atrocious
character of the monopoly bill under dis
cussion. John Sherman, who cares less
about freedom of debate than Edmunds,
raised his voice the other day against
protracted discussion of the bill, and is
every hour on tenter hooks lest the peo-
ple learn too much about the plundering
scheme that the tariffites want railroaded
through without exposure. He, Ed
munds and the rest OF them know that
the bill has hideous aspect when scru-
tinized closely, US well as most disrep-
utable character bequesthed it by its pl-
ratical sires. To hide its face and shield
its character is absolutely necessary.
Hence the row about "needless discus
sion, - "waste of time, F" etc.
Whose fault is it that the bill Ia stuck
where it is? Who held it in the commit
tee room of the house until June had al
most arrived2 Was it not Reed and
Mckinley? Why was it allowed to stay
in the hands of the senate finance COM
mittee nearly two months more before
being brought up for discussion iu
the upper house? Certainly not the
Democrats. Why then should they be
asked to forgo their right of discussion?
Did Republican dilatoriness forfeit that
right? No Republican even will say
it did. They have the right, and mean

Tim- was when the stop-watch, with the split
second hand used for timing hoises on race
tracks cost many hundred dollars and could pc
afforded by only a few. Time was when gold
case of sufficient thickness to protect a watch
was out of the range of possibilities OF nearly al

many, and almost to the price WHICH is charged

A GREAT INDUSTRY.
1t Is About to Be Developed Largely in
Texas.

1t Is About to Be Developed Largely in
Texas.
DR.. NJ. Chambers OF New Orleans,
La, is in the city.
DR.. Chambers is the foremost okra
fiber expert in this country. In New
Orleans he practices medicine, but hav-
ing a taste for botany of the useful va
riety, he has devoted his talents to the
development of the okra plant as an
article of manufacture and commerce.
At the time when ramie was prominently
before the Southern planters as offer
ing great inducements for cultivs-
ton, DR.. Chambers brought forward
the okra plant, familiar to the
Southern markets as an article OF con-
sumption, as textile product. In line
with his views he brought forward ma
chine adapted to the decortication OF the
fiber. For some time Mr.. Chambers
has been in communication with
the Fort Worth moss collar,
bagging and cordage company
through its president, Zane Cetti. Now
he is in Fort Worth to prosecute the BUSH
ness. Last spring the moss collar people
received from him large quantity of
the okra seed with which they planted
100 acres about eight miles north from
Fort Worth. Several samples of the
okra stalk and pod in the various stages
of decortication and manufacture were
exhibited at the Spring Palace,
and being saved from the
destruction of that fated exhibition, are
| now in Boston at the Grand Army en-
campment.
Mr.. Chambers said to GAZETTE man
| last evening: "There Is no reason why
Texas and the vicinity. surrounding Fort
Worth should not become the center OF q
great okra manufacturing trade. The
plant grows in great natural luxurianee
here. was surprised when l came upon
the markets of Fort Worth and found the
native grown pods for sale, and upon in
| yestigation 1 learn that the stalks are
such as are especially adapted to manu-
| featuring purposes. l am now going to
| Chicago TO bring down my machine. i
Will have it here in ten days, after
which l will show what can bs
| done with the okra. Bagging, rope {,
twine, furniture, mating and floor COW
| erings, rugs, carpets and all such things
can be made cheaply and OF fine quality
from the okra. My machine will render
the sunfIower, which grows so abund-
antly in Texas, into fiber out of which
most delicate cloth can be made. Chinese
silk Is made from an adulteration with
the sunfower fiber. Texas should be
! the headquarters of vast manufacturing
interests of this kind.

A GOOD SPEECH.

That was rafting speech delivered by
Chairman Finley at the opening OF the
convention. 1t was essentially Demo-
cratic in tone, and deprecated the class
legislation that would ignore or subordl-
nate the interests of the people, the
masses. There should be no antagonists
in the ranks of Texas Democracy, said
he, and there will be none, so long as the
party is true to itself. He predicted dis
aster should the time ever come when
''those men who go into fits of hydropho-
bia whenever the name and interests of
the farmers and laborers are men
toned, 3" should get control OF the party
organization.
1t is sincerely to be hoped that the con-
tingency which he deprecates, may not
come to pass. That it may not, constant
vigilance on the peoples side is neces-
sary. That they apprehend such con-
dition of things already, and are sufh-
GENTLY alive TO the danger threatening
them, is clearly manifest from the extra
ordinary activity and alertness displayed
by them in the past two months. with
astounding unanimitY and untiinching
earnestness they rallied round their COL
ors, and carrying everything before
them, swept their adversarleJ aside as
the wind scatters chaff.
The victory gained so easily and so or
derlv should, and will teach them use
full and profitable lesson. They now
know what they can do; know their
power, and how it can be used and di-
rected to Just and honorable ends. They
have only to use it with prudence and
moderation, and they will always be in
vincible.

brutal majority shall rob them of 1t, as
was done in the house.
There is also lively disposition on the
part of a few Western Republican sena-
tors to pick flaws in the atrocity, and by
their complaints and objurgations arouse
the latent opposition of the Western
farmers. That is now the worst danger
threatening the bill. Plumb's attacks
on it are far more damaging than the as
saults of the solid Democratic delega-
ton. The people of the West are in
mood Just now to welcome such utter
ances as his and give them patient and
favorable hearing. The tariffites know
this, and are oorrespondingly alarmed.
Edmunds and Sherman, the ancient
watchdogs of privilege and monopoly,
now come to the rescue of the plundering
infants with a rule to muzzle recalcl-
trants, and gag the opposition. 1t is
brutal piece of business, and II the con-
stituents of Plumb and Paddock can t
see through and abhor it, then do they
deserve to have their noses kept to the
grinding stone for another decade.

nEMOcRACYS YORK.

Hogg it was, Hogg it is, and Hogg 1t
will be. His nomina ton was OF course
no surrrlse. That was fully expected.
But the manner Of it, the wild enthus-
iasm and wonderful unanimity with
which it was made, was something new
in the history of Texas politics. What
ever the convention may have thought of
other matters, there was practically no
disagreement as to Hogg. Delegates
who came instructed for Cook went with
the crowd and cast their votes for
the favorlte. 1t was famous
victory, and illustrates in most strik-
ing manner, the force of public opinion
when fairly aroused and apprehensive
of harm or danger.
The convention, it should be said to
its credit, behaved handsomely towards
the defeated wing of the party. Both in
the platform and in the speeches made
on the floor was the utmost consideration
shown for the friends of Judge Cook and
the other candidates. There was no
bitterness, no hostility, no feeling
manifested, as indeed there should
be none. The majority displayed
rare magnanimity towards the erring
brethren, and avoided any and every
thing calculated to irrItate or wound.
The committee on resolutions went SO far
even as to strike out OF the commission
plank the obnoxious clause ''snd we will
support, - IN Difference to the prejudices
and biections-perhaps unreasonable
of the friends aud supporters Of Judge
