come laws, and go into effect before
they realize what has teen done. Even
the legislatures, constituted as they
are at present with few farmer mem
bers, would do much better if the far
mers would interest themselves more
in looking after them. The members
are a good deal like a lot of boys
sent to do some work-their
employer must not only tell them
what to do, but he must go along
with them and see that they do it
Recently a member of the legislature
who is willing and anxious to aid
farmers in securing any just
legislation they desire, was told
of an amendment to certain law
drawn up at farmers institute, and
the resolution adopted unanimously
in its favor. "Will any of them be on
hand during the session of the legis-
lature to see it through" he asked.
"When any other class of men are
interested in having bill passed,
they are on hand TO look after it.

Gbe 6Meeklp STATESMAN
GEN. R. LINDSEY WALKER.

News was received at this Office yes
terday of the death OF Gen. r. Lindsey
Walker. Death has its noted victories
and noble soul bas just yielded in a
most unequal contest. What better
can be said OF man when the sombre
silence of the tomb cuts him off from
the sound of adulation that must then
wreathe itself alone around a mem
DRY, than that he did his duty as that
duty came to him-that he was in
every sense man. We OF Texas need
know of Gen. Walker only his history
during the few years Of his life in our
State, to send to his far off State,
Virginia, our mourning emblem OF
flowers bearing the stamp of our con-
science "he was a man." But his
name is interviewer with the
history of the South, for which
with imperial bravery he for all those
years OF blood and civil strife imper-
illed his life. No Drawer soldier
buckled on sword in that terrible war,
no more gallant leader survived its
carnage and death. In civil life he
still wore that same badge OF gal
lantry. His was rugged whole
souled nature that lowered above the
little things of life. He was true to
principle, to his friends, to himself
One by one death is gathering to its
cold embrace the heroes that have
made the history Of the South. The
soil OF old Virginia will now receive
the mortal remains OF one of hel
proudest, truest defenders. Where
could that queenly State find such
noble monuments as the graves O
such honored SONS? Texas bends 6
sorrowing head while Virginia burie'

WELL WRITTEN.
What the Brooklyn, N. Y, Eagle Thought of
Gov. Ross Speech to Cleveland.

What the Brooklyn, N. Y, Eagle Thought of
Gov. Ross Speech to Cleveland.
"That was an interesting and sig
nificant interview at the house of
Grover Cleveland on Madison avenue,
New York, last night. 1t is not often
so marked a distinction is conferred
on private citizen as the one paid to
the ex-president by his visitors from
the State of Texas. Headed by the
governor of the commonwealth, and
embracing many of the leading men of
the State, the delegation invited Mr..
Cleveland and wife to attend the in
dustrial exhibition in Dallas in Oc-
tober next. The words of Gov. Ross
fittingly voice the highest aspirations
of the new South.
These are courageous, timely and
truthful sentiments. How they shine
by contrast with the vaporings of
bourDons North and South, who de-
vote their superintendent energies to
stirring up fraternal strife! To the
windy warriors, 'invincible in peace,
invisible in war, now striving to put
down phantom rebellion, they con-
vey more fitting reDuke than any
amount of discussion could evolve
When all that has been said that can
be said on sectional questions the
truth remains that the Southern
States, reconciled to events, are as
faithful to the flag as those of any
other part Of the Union. In Texas
there is no more thought of quarrel
ing with the results of the civil con.
fiict than there is with the outcome OF
the Struggle for freedom from Mexican
dominion. The face of the Lone
Star State is toward the morning. 1t
citizens have no time for vain regrets,
for wandering among the tombstones
of a dead past, for raking over the
blackened embers of ancient and ex-
ploded controversy. They are on the
high and solid road to their true goal
OF human progress.
That Mr.. Cleveland will be able tc
accept the cordial invitation of his
visitors is to be hoped. That he will
in company with his estimable wife
receive hearty W, leone, there car
be no doubt. The honor bestowed by
the invitation is appropriate. The
distinction implied is,unmistakable. II
shows that Grover Cleveland, in civil
station, holds the affection of hi;
countrymen, and that despite the
ratings of the adversary, his star il
still in the ascendant.

A Trip to Old Mexico Frequently Made for.
One Dollar,

1t is surprising how little is known of our
sister republic by the citizens of the United
States, although it is easily reached by
water or rail. The large percentage of
Americans seem to satisfy themselves with
the thought that Mexico is only a narrow
strip attached to our country, and compare
1t with the tail of kite instead of know
ing that it contains twenty seven
large states and 100000 people. ~
Those desiring to study different race
OF people, enjoy, picturesque scenery. anti
putty, enterely different customs and more
novel sights than ever dream ed of, should
visit Mexico. Many lucky investors in the
Loteria de la Benefcencia publica have
been enabled to take this delightful trip by
sending 81 or upward to Juan Piedad, Man
ager Apartado, 43, Zacatecas, Mexico.

DEMONETIzING SILVER.

Thore are thousands OF good, honest
people who look upon the struggle
over the Window silver bill now going
on in congress with Indifference as if
it could never affect them or their in
terests. Fatal mistake. II it becomes
law its effects will reach and act
upon the masses--the poorer classes
of the country as surely as those OF
the tariff.
For twenty-five years currency con-
traction has been the policy OF the
Republican party, and the govern.
ment has been run to that end.
Why? Because it was to the interest
of the capitalists, the holders OF bonds
and securities, Federal, State and
municipal; in other words, the
creditor classes, the money kings,
who have controlled the Republican
party from the president down.
Why is it to the interest of the cap
italists to contract the currency and
diminish the volume of the circulat.
ing medium? Because, like other
commodities, money becomes more
valuable the scarcer it becomes. II
by contraction and silver demonetiza-
ton, which is the covert but real pur-
pose of the Window bill, dollar can
be given additional purchasing power,
OF course it is that much clear gain to
the holder of the dollar, and that
much loss to the man who has to sell
his farm produce or his labor.
This is the reason why the
millionaire is anxious for cur
rency contraction by the Window
bill, silver demonstration or any other
way. With every turn of the screw Of
contraction the bondholder finds his
securities more valuable, because the
currency in which they are payable
has become more valuable. On the
other band the farmer finds that
prices have gone down and the laborer
and mechanic are forced to take less
wages, while at the same time there
has been a general shrinkage Of
values, in real estate and
everything else. Nobody is bene-
fitted but the millionaire, the CAPT
talist and the moneyed man.
This is about what silver demoneti-
cation means. 1t is grand thing for
the rich man but it is terribly bad
thing for the poor man. Currency
contraction enriches the rich man,
but drags down the poor to still
deeper poverty. The Window bill, or
any other hypocritical demonstration
scheme, is an injustice to the masses
of the country-a stain upon the
honor of the government that en-
forces such a policy of robbery-that
time can no more wash out than it
can the murderous guilt of Elizabeth
of England in sending Mary, queen
of Scots, to the execution block.

At all events he as well as the presi-

TEXAS SHOULD BE HO SORED IN PUB
Lie SPEECH,

A careful reader must have noted in
the speech Of Judge Gustave, Cook the
same broad conception of public OBJ
legation and craftsmanship that char
acterized the speech of State Senator
Mcdonald some weeks ago. Both
were most able efforts. There was
one peculiar mark about them THE
STATESMAN must especially commend.
It's that they were argumentative, not
abusive speeches. They enunciated
doctrines and were not composed Of
personalities or characterized by pique,
Their authors were discussing funda-
mental principles, not individual or
collated Incidents. THE STATESMAN
says this in all candor and kindness.
For while it must place itself on record
as being opposed to those gen.
tlemen on the platform they an
nounced, while we are fer a
commission and they against it, yet
that cannot blind us to the frankn ess
the boldness and the force with which
they stated their position. Nor does
our difference of opinion estop us
from insisting that their style of argu.
ment is most becoming the dignity
and the future of the great State Of
Texas. Candidates for the high honor
OF governor should ever bear in mind
that they are before the eyes of the
people, and that in their public
speeches they are, to considerable
extent, shaping the estimate in which
Texas shall be held by the outside
world.

IT is with exceeding great pleasure
THE STATESMAN makes note OF the re-
port that the Spring Palace manage
ment will not only get out of the fire
whole and sound, but will have good
margin with which to begin work on
permanent fire proof Palace. All
honor to the pluck and determination
of the people of Fort Worth and
especially the Spring Palace manage
ment. In this connection THE STATES
MAN would endorse the suggestion OF
MIR. Jno. Heony, editor of the Abilene
Reporter, that each county of the
State contribute some material to go
into the construction of the new per-
manent building. That should be
made not only Fort Worth but a
Texas institution, and every county in
the State should contribute to its
building.

doubt difficult, but, according TO the official
statistics OF Scotch marriages just issued, it il
one that good many ''lassiesn are not un-
willing to face In the year embraced in
the latest return 40 bridegrooms were
older than their brides by 80 years and up
wards. No instance in which the figures are
reversed is recorded by the registrar general,
and though there were two wives between 20
and 80 years older than their spouses, there
were no fewer than 1S6 instances in which the
disparity was the other way. When we come
to difference of Is to 20 years, the elderly
brides are just 10 to 3S9 elderly bride.
grooms. When tie difference Is from 10 to
Is years, the elderly wives are only II, while
the elderly bridegrooms number 1,054
How the objection on the part of the men
to seniority in their partners gathers
strength, however, will be best shown by
going to the other end of the scale Thus in
2,96l marriages the contracting parties were

wives were one year older than their
