men, the sheritfs' association, and the members

tion to his candidacy, and yet he is dema-
gogue. Bold assertion, and not argument, Is
the weapon used 10y many of Hogg's opponents,
but no association, CLIQUE, ring or combination
aided by all the political tricksters IN the state

greatest state in the Union.-[ Cleburne
Chronicle.
Senator Mcdonald made his first cam
paign speech at Bonbam last Saturday, and it
appeared in all the morning papers the next
day. The speech was characteristic OF the man !,
and was in keeping with his course in the last
legislature. He devoted most of his speech to
what he fears is growing tendency IN the direc-
ton of what he styles paternalism. He speaks at
length of Thomas Jefferson and quotes freely
from Macaulay to give force to his argument. OF
course the cry of paternalism is introdu ced now
in order to use it against the proposed commits
sion amendment at some future time. The
speaker stated that he would have his speech
against the commission bill in the last legisla-
ture republished, which would define his present
position. The Paris candidate is the youngest
and most literary of the lot, and there will be
strong influences in his behalf, but we cannot
believe that he repreients popular sentiment in

To DESTROY the - Rum Power"

Henry George affirms, in the January
issue of the Arena, that the way to de-
stroy the rum power" is 10 remove
restrictions from the sale of alcoholic
stimulants. These restrictions are not
an effect, but the cause of the "rum
power in politics. So long as govern
ment does not interfere with any busi-
ness interest. that interest seeks to have
no voice in politics Intemperance has
never turned civilization back toward
barbarism. but corruption in politics
has had such results. For this reason
the evils arising from the influence of
the saloon in politics are more serious
than other results from the prevalent
use of ardent spirits. Mr.. George in
stances other business interests that
have become a power in politics by
reason of legislative interference. and
shows how a Federal tax on corsets
would evoke corset power in ma
tional politics. He af1irms that Phila-
delphia's comparatively new high
license law, which has greatly reduced
the number of saloons. and also the
amount of intemperance and crime,
must by reason of the discretion it
lodges in the bench, interest the "rum
power" in the nomination and election
of judges.
Having shown that it is hopeless to
attempt to eliminate the "rum power"
from politics by restrictive legislation,
Mr.. George argues that 'free rum"
would accomplish this, and also de-
crease rather than increase intemper-

election of United States Senators by a

OF course it would meet with strong
opposition on the part of our million

themselves in Office by the corrupt use
of money. but people want the ties,

"A Package Containing $4,000, En- Route

Walton. Money Clerk at the
Dallas (Tex.) Ofice.

ST. LOUIS. Feb. 6.-L. A. Fuller, su-
perintendent of the Pacific Express
Company, was yesterday notified by the
Commercial Bank of this city that a
package containing $50, 900 in bills, con-
signed to them by the City National
Bank of Dallas. Tex. for which they
held the receipt of the Pacific Express
Company, was missing.
The story of the discovery of this
startling fact was very quickly told. On
February the City National Bank of
Dallas remitted to the Commercial Bank
of st. Louis $50, 900, of which SIS, 900 in
gold was contained in canvas bag, and
S35, 900 in bills in the regulation express
package The $4,000 bag of gold was
duly received here two days ago and de-
Ivered to the Commercial Bank. the

auce in the use OF strong drinks. Pro

ance in the use OF strong drinks. Pro-
hibition does not prohibit laws
restraining the sale of strong drink or
Sunday are but spasmodically enforced.
The enhancement of the cost of liquor
by reason of restrictive legislation pro-
notes adulteration. Restricting the
sale of liquor cannot discourage the
formation of drinking habits, for such
habits are formed quite as much at
social entertainments as anywhere else.
Prohibitory laws do not restrain men
from social drinking or from Offering
drink to others. but the cheapening of
strong drink would weaken the treating
habit If whisky were as cheap as
water treating would probably disap-
pear. If any one who chose could sell
liquor. the saloon keepers must 60 out
of business. The liqEor saloon, as we
know it, is a specialization which can
only exist by the concentration of bnsI-
ness which restriction causes. The
gorgeous and enticing saloon is prod
uct of the license system; the squalid
dive a product of the prohibltive sys-
tenn. Mr.. George quotes Adam Smith
in support of his position, and then
goes on to show that intemperance is
only a phase of the general social ILL
health. Intemperance is abnormal.
1t is the vice of those who are starved
and those who are gorged. Free trade
ia LIQUOR would tend to reduce it, but
could not abolish it. But free trade in
everything would. 1 do not mean a
sneaking. half-hearted and half-wittod
tariff reform but that absolute, thor
ough, free trade which would not only
abolish the custom license and the eX-
else. but would do away with every tax
on the products of labor and every re-
striction on the exertion of labor, and
would leave every one freeto do what
ever did not infringe upon the Ten

JUDICIARY CENTENNIAL.
The Celebration Of the Centenary
of the Federal Judiciary.
A Notable Gathering at the metropolitan
Opera-House, New YOrk-Speeches
by Ex-President Cleveland, JUS

New YORK, Feb. 5.-A disagreea BILE
rain which set in shortly after nine
O'Clock yesterday morning added to the
general gloom which the sad events of
the past few days had cast over every
body and everything connected with the
celebration of the centennial of the
Federal Judiciary. All preparations
had been perfected for the event,
however, and neither the absence
of the President and his Cabl-
net nor the atmosphere 5 influence were
permitted to interfere with the cele-
bration. At all the principal
hotels early calls were made upon
the distinguished guests from all
over the Union, and every attention was
shown them by the committee in charge.
Carriages rolled up to the doors, and
the guests were escorted to the Metro
politan Opera House, whore they gath
cred in the waiting-rooms and lobbies
awaiting the formation of the process
sion.
At10:30 IN. the procession, headed by
the Judges of the Supreme Court of the
United States in their official robes, fol-
lowed by the various Judges of the Fed
eral District courts, the New York State
Court of Appeals, the Supreme, Superior,
Common Pleas and other courts, march ed
down the various aisles of the Opera
house and occupied the various seats in
the boxes allotted to them. The mem-
bers of the Supreme Court of the United
States occupied seats on the stage along
with ex-President Cleveland and many
other legal dignitaries. The immense
auditorium was crowded with National
and State lawmakers, citizens and rep
resentatives Of the profession. Many
ladies were present.
When Mr.. Cleveland took his place as
president of the assemblage, there was
loud and prolonged cheering, and it was
several minutes before the ex-President
could be heard.
Mr.. Cleveland then, in a clear voice,
delivered his Introductory add ress. He

We Will Stand United,

The ST. Louis meeting has passed
into history; the proposed consolida-
ton of the agricultural organizations
has been effected, and a plan of coop
Grafton with the Knights of Labor in
matters of mutual interest has been
agreed upon. The result is not only
encouraging in itself. but it marks the
beginning of new era in the history
of industrial reform. 1t was the simple
and hitherto silly giant, Labor taking q
lesson from the follies of the past. II
voiced to the world the recognition O.
the identity of interests of all classes 0
honest workers, and gave promise oi
their future solidity in every effort tC
relieve the producers and elevate labor.
Previous to tie meeting many hao
dreaded, many others openly predicted
failure. The history of the past af-
forded little ground for hope. Folly
and faction had hitherto kept the
workers divided into warning fragments
and left them the easy prey of every
cunning, scheming combination, fnan-
cial, political or industrial Moreover,
it was feared that intolerance OF opin-
ions, sectional prejudice or imaginary
diversity of interests might ntrude and
block the path to union aud progress.
will it be union and strength, or dis.
union and weakness?" was the ex.
pressed or unexpressed thought of every
earnest mind whose hopes werc cen.
tered in the new movement. But the
men who met at ST. Louis rose equal tc
the emergency; they rose superior tc
every other consideration but the SUI
preme question of consolidation. The
majority of those present were deter
mined that union should be affected,
fully believing that without this there
was no hope for economic reform. In
the deliberations of the united body
there was not the slightest evidence oi
least trace of it felt. No such spirit
will be tolerated in the ranks of the
Farmers Alliance and Industrial Union,
and it is tee duty of every member tc
discountenance that selfish, cowardly
and unmanly feeling wherever or in
whatever, form expressed. Now thai
this consolidation is effected and coop
Grafton, agreed upon, it should be re.
membered by every officer and member
that it was not done for mere show,
but for active, useful work. That worb
must be Unconstitutional Economist.

In reference to the same matter the
Weekly Ioiler of Nashville, Tenn, SAYS;
"Men of all parties have, blinded by
prejudice, lost sight of their interest
and followed corrupt leaders until the
destruction of the free institutions OF
our government and the liberties of the
people is seriously threatened. The
Farmers Alliance, organized to avert
the impending danger, seeing the
necessity for union of farmers North
and South to successfully resist the en-
croachments of organized capital, and
to that end have endeavored to remove
the sectional prejudices between the
North and South, and it is significant
that the very day that Jefferson Davis,
the leader of secession, passed off of the
stage of action, the Northern and South
ern farmers united at St. Louis in
brotherly love and fraternal union,
wiping out in so far as the farmers of our
nation are concerned sectional lines.
On the same day a confederation of
mechanics and laborers, known us
Knights of Labor, mostly in the North
was made with the farmers of the South,
all of which tends to closer fraternai
love and friendship between all sections
Of our common country.
