THE THIRD PARTY MOVEMENT.

1t is becoming more and more ap-
parent every day, and especially since
the Ocala convention, that the lead
ers of the National Farmers Alliance
have it in their heads to run presi-
Dental candidate in 1892. If the Al
lance should adopt this idea it would
tend to play into the hands of the
Republicans by disintegrating to
some extent the Democracy in the
South and West. The party in those
sections is made up for great part
with farmers, in fact, the principles
of the party are based chiefly on the
agricultural interests. If the farmers
can be seduced, by cunning schemers,
at present invisible and behind the
scenes, into the third party failacy,
damage to the Democracy might
result, especially in the West.
There is not ghost of show for the
election OF an Alliance candidate for
president, and all that organization
would accomplish by Independent &C
ton might be the defeat OF the far
mer's best friend, the Demo 'racy.
There is no necessity for such party,
because the Democracy entirely fills
the bill and is making stronger fight
for the farmer than he can make by
himself and alone. No. Let the Al
lance abandon all thought of indepen-
dentism, as individuals, join with the
Democrats and together clean out the
Republicans in 1892. The farmers
only hope in getting rid of the restric-
tive tariff is in working with the Dem
Gratis. Run not after an ignus fatuus
that will lead you into the boys of dis
aster. Stick to the Democratic par
ty. 1t is your only salvation.

RAILWAY LITIGATION.

1t is matter Of congratulation that
the long litigation in which the Hous-
ton and Texas Central has been in
'volved, extending over many years,
has been ended by the decree OF
United States Judge Pardee, men,
toned in yesterdays dispatches. The
decree orders Receiver Charles Dill
bingham to turn over the property,
lands, and everything else belonging
to the road to Mr.. Olcott, who repre-
sents Huntington.
No agency has been more powerful
in building up our state, developing
its resources and putting Texas on
the high road to wealth, population
and power than has the Central
That road, the first shovelful
of dirt on which was thrown
by Paul Bremond and other adventur
GUS spirits who foresaw the great fut
ure OF the state, was the pioneer in
shaping the business destinies o.
Texas, and her people, who have ex-
perienced go many benefits at the
hands of this great corporation, will
rejoice that the troubles of the COM
pany are now over.
During the last few years Messrs
Dillingham;, Faulkner and others con
nected with the management OF the
road have conducted its affairs with
ability and satisfaction to the public
and it would be as much to be regretted
as McGaughey's clean sweep in thu
land Office, if the change in ownership
of the road should involve a change in
management also.

MODERN SOCIETY.

In lecture at the Art Club, Phila-
delphia, last week, Mrs. Sherwood, a
prominent society woman, made an
address in which she very aptly
sketched some of the more striking
features of modern American society.
She made the point that among
Americans it is wealth, not intellect,
that rules, and no matter what a
mans presidents are, whether he has
stolen railroad or anything else, if
he has wealth he is at once accorded
recognition. This was not so much
the case, she commended, in European
countries, where rank and intellectual
distinction secured their possessor po-
sition when there was no other claim.
Mis-. Sherwood attempted to prove
that the aims of American so
ciety are too low and selfish
and instanced lady who based her
social claims on her mother who was
An heiress and blushed for her father
whose brilliant intellect had enriched
the literature Of his country. In this
she is probably near, too near the
truth. Society in this country, espec-
tally in the younger communities
and new states partakes of a mush-
room character. AS q general thing
tine rich man, no matter how he got
his money, and the wealthy woman,
rule in our society, which is partly
due to the fact that we have no real
aristocracy, or the influence of old
family ties and ancient lineage to
dominate in our part OF
the social world as they do
in other and older countries
Money rules in American society now.
Intellect and growing aristocracy
founded on blood and family lineage
as well as ducats will assert their sway
after awhile. When that time comes
which Mrs. Sherwood may o to
see, American society will not low
down so utterly as now in the worship
of Mammon.

MANUFACTURING ENTERPRISES.

The Manufacturers Record of De-
cember 10, says: "The organization
of new manufacturing enterprises in
the South goes steadily on, notwith-
standing the severe financial string
ency which restricts all business
operations throughout the country.
The indications are favorable for an
early improvement in money matters,
and then we may look for avery decided
increase in activity throughout
the South. With money troubles
promptly settled, the coming spring
would show greater developments than
have yet been seen in this section.
During the week there have been or
ganized a $50, 900 nail works company
at Salem, Va; a $4,000 lumber COM
pany at Pulaski, Va; a $4,000 lum-
Der company and a $4,000 lumber
company in Florida; a $500, 600 manu-
featuring company in Lynchburg,
Va; a $4,000 brick company and a
$50, 900 manganese grinding company
at Savernake, Va, to which point a
$25O,000 hardware factory is to be
moved from New England; Front
Royal, Va, has a $5O,OOO
tack factory company; Mont
gomery, Ala, a $4,000 lumber
company; Darlington, S. c., $4,000
water and electric light works; Day
ton, Tenn, a $4,000 canning factory,
ann Petersburg, Va, $500, 900 phos-
phate company. A number of i'm
portant enterprises, the organization
of which have been under way, will be
delayed until after the beginning OF
the new year, when money is expected
to be easier. When Austin has her
dam completed she will come in for
large share of new enterprises. No
doubt about it. Manufacturers are
already turning their eyes this way.
On with the dam.

ScoTTDALE Pa, Jan. 13 "A few members
OF the executive board Of the Knights Of
Labor are meeting here and considering the
circular issued by the superintendent Of
the coke region in answer to their scale.
The men do not generally deny the fact
that they are asking large advance, but
they say that when the selling price OF coke
is taken into consideration, and their scale
is based on $3.50 coke, IL is not any teo
large. One member remarked that he
would not besurprised TO see coke take a biz
jump IN price after the settling Of the present
wage difficulty
Operators are generally non-committal,
but intimate that they will refrain from
signing the new wage scale, which, accord.
ing 60 their estimates, demands an advance
Of 50 per cent The operators win perhaps
give fair increase in wages, but if The men
insist ON TIE present wage scale they will
probably leo their works remain idle for
