Ago.

Liberty is much indebted TO the press.

the time that newspapers first shed
their pleasant light upon heretofore

OF the duties of "a writer for the news

The Effects OF Mental Exhaustion.
Many diseases, especially those of
the nervous system, are the products
of daily renewed mental exhaustion.
Business avocations often involve an
amount OF mental wear and tear very
prejudlclal to physical health, and
the professions, if arduously pur-
sued, are no less destructive to
brain and nerve tissue. 1t is one Of
the most important attributes OF Hos
letters Stomach Bitters that it COM
pensates for this undue loss of tissue,
aud that it imparts new energy to
the brain and nerves. The rapidity
with which it renews weakened men
tai energy and physical vitality is re-
markable and shows that its invigo-
rating properties are of the highest
order. Besides increasing vital stam-
ina, and counteracting the effects of
mental exhaustion, this potential
medicine cures and prevents fever
and ague, rheumatism, chronic dys-
pepsia and constipation, kidney and

In Milan They Form Sect Which
Excludes the PrOfane Crowd.
| 1t may be reckoned as the grea.
artistic event of the year, says the
Nuova Antilogia (Rome), that the
public of the Scala, in Milan, has
entered the Wagnerian era, humble
aud converted. and processes devo
votion to the religion of Baireuth, to
its messiah and his apostles. A few
years ago "Lohengrin," which OF all
the works of Wagner is the most ac-
cessible to the profane, rendered as it
is in Italy, was irreverently Missed.
1t was some years before a rspeti-
ton of the opera could be received
with respect, but without enthusi-
asm; but except the Knight of the
Swan none of the legendary heroes of
Wagner had appealed to the verdict
of the Milanese public. 1t seems
strange that an audience that had
never heard "Tannhauser" nor the
"FIiegende Hollander" received the
"Meistersinger" favorably, although
the transition is not such q mortal
leap as some have affirmed, for in the
"Meistersinger" there is an abundant
wave of melody, and the musical
thought is always unfolded fully and
clearly. In Milan, as in other cities
of Italy. has been formed sect of
Wagnerists. They would like to
adore their god alone.
With Olympic contempt they keep
away the profane crowd. They grow
indignant if the public offers hostile
reception to the music of Wagner;
yet they betray feeling of despite if
the public appears to be amused.
The common herd have merely the
right to admire Wagner without un-
Outstanding him. If the day shall
come when Wagner's music comes
within the reach of all, like that of
Verdi, they Will then deny the
master and the religion of which
they profess to be the priests.
1t Is not well proved that all the
Wagnerians comprehend Wagner's
music. One makes a pilgrimage to
Baireuth just as one goes to Buffalo
Bills or the sermons of Padre Agos-
tino of Montefeltro, because fashion
demands it. Nevertheless it is certain
that the Wagnerites have placed
Wagner on q lofty pedestal by es-
tablishing the belief that to appre-
ciate his works requires long prepsr-
atory study and q particular attitude
conceded only to few.

THURSDAY sEPTEMBER,:lS 1890.
TIVE HOUSTON MANIFESTO.

'Vhe addres to the white republi-
cans OF Texas, which was threatened
during''the meeting of the late repub.
lican convention in this city, has been
issued over the signature of Max
Urwitz as provisional secretary of the
Republican Central Executive COM
mittee. The assumption to speak for
the state republican executive COM
mittee of Texas is misleading, as Mr..
Max Urwitz has no connection in any
way, shape or manner with the re-
publican state executive committee,
nor was he a member of the late state
conven ton. his contesting delegation
having bsen excluded. 1t is peril
nent to enquire had Mr.. Urwitz
been admitted with his con-
testants to seats in the
state convention. would he have is
sued his manifesto? And if not, does
not he stand accused of having acted
under the impulse OF disappointed
political feeling rather than for the
interests of the republican party
whose membership he now seeks to
divide.
The whole manifesto is readily re-
duced to wholesale charge and an
impossible remedy. The charge, ne
gro denomination of the republican
party in Texas. The remedy, exclu-
sion of the colored republicans from
all participat III the primary cleo
ions of the party.
AS to the irst, negro domination
it is deLied. The late state conven,
ton did not develop any such doni'
nation, and the revolt being agains,
the convention, by it's acts must the
truth of the charges be demonstrated
There were but two contests before
that convention, after it was organ
lied. One for governor and one fol
chairman of the state executive com
mittee. In both of these contests tn,
recognized leader of the colored re
publicans of Texas was on the de
feated side. Does this look like ne
gro domination? There was::..not :
single colored candidate put for
ward for any state office. L
this negro domination? Tn,
officers of the convention were whit
republicans; the nominations to offic,
were ali white republicans, and We
men, otherwise intelligent, talk o
negro domination. The colored vot
in the convention in every division
that arose was divided, and yet CT.
is raised about colored domination
There is no reason for it, as far as an,
act of the state convention is cor
cerned.
Granted, for the sake of argument
that there are INSCRIPTIONS colore,
leaders in Houston and some othe
places who boss the colored repuDl
