especially in Nebraska, Georgia, Mn
nesota, Illinois, and most notably of
all in Kansas, where their organization
seems to have been far more effective
and compact than that of the trained
politicians Of the Republican party.
The energy with which they ha re
come to the front is also OBJ
served in Missouri, whereof the
legislature-elect, consisting of eigh-
teen state senators and one
hundred and forty members OF the
house, fully two-thirds are farmers, a
greater proportion perhaps than was
ever indicated before in any legisla-
tive body. The legal profession is
usually represented in large force, but
in the Missouri house of representa-
tives there are not more than eighteen
or twenty lawyers all told. The old
theory that lawyers, by reason of their
professional education and experience,
were of all classes of citizens best fitted
for the making of laws is thus heavily
discounted. The new idea that the
citizens who stand most in need Of
remedial legislation, and whose claim
is that their interests have been most
neglected by congress and in their
State Legislatures, are best qualified to
determine what their needs require
and what should be done for the gen.
eral amelioration of their condition.

THE ALLIANCE.

1t is understood that it was tn,
sense of the Alliance meeting her,
yesterday that The STATESMAN wa
ininical to the Alliance, and had in
suited it by the Camorra article of tn,
7th instant. THE STATESMAN has ant
always will have the interest of tn,
farmers at heart. They are OF oul
very best citizenship. The article o
the 7th was intended as an insult tt
no one, but was thrown QUO as sig
nal of danger. The Alliance in it,
inception and general purpose is g
most worthy institution, and THE
STATESMAN does not wish to have il
turned from that purpose. The
Camorra was cited to show how a
good thing could be spoiled, and in
the hope that the startling COMPARE
son might cause good Alliance men
everywhere to get to thinking, to
looking we'll to their order, that il
might not sli , its moorings and drift
out to sea. That was THE STATES
MANS object, that and nothing more
THE Waco Day is edited by ono OF
the cleverest fabers in the state, a
faber that in late edition struck of
the following: "While a representa-
tive of The Day was waiting at a rail-
way station at distant point in the
state short time ago to take train
he happened to overhear the remaks
of two men who were talking about
Waco. One of them was just return
ing from visit to this city and
was praising the place to his COM
panion. A third party remarked
that there was one good thing
about the city, that all Of
its citizens took pride in it and
always spoke in praise OF it. There
was much meaning conveyed in the
remark. A person who cannot speak
we'll of the town in which he lives
should seek a home somewhere else
as soon as he can make arrangements
to get away. There is no room for
croakers and chronic grumblers in a
live town." The reputation of "a mans
home city should be next to that OF
his family-both should be carefully
guarded. Every citizen of Austin
should be living, breathing, walking
advertisement Of our beautiful city.

Censorship of the Press.

Under the lottery law framed by
congress and the instructions given by
the postmaster general to his sub
ordinates throughout the country,
there is serious danger of encroach-
ments on the liberty OF the press that
should be rebuked and opposed by the
newspapers of the country without
regard to party lines.
These postmasters are instructed to
act rs censors and inspect all second
class matter, and whenever the post
master finds, what he considers un-
lawful matter, or even suspects that
articles are of that character, he is
authorized to suppress the publication
and refuse it passage through the
mails.
This dangerous innovation is claimed
under the specious pretext of sup
pressing lottery advertisements, and
so far the public seems to acquiesce
without a protest against this new
assumption of power. If this step
meets with popular favor then the
next move will be to examine first
class matter, breaking the seals OF
letters in search of contraband publ
CO tons or writings. If that be accom-
plished then we will rapidly forget the
Louisiana State lottery in the multi
tude of grounds upon which these
postmasters can act as censOrs OF press
and people.-Lexington (Ky) Press

1.-THE PENITENTIARY BOARD AND THE
CONVICT PROBLEM"


The Dallas News of last Saturday
had the following editorial which is
reproduced as treating of subject of
interest to every one IN Texas;
"The law authorizes the Texas pen
itentiary board to purchase land. The
board lately had $4,000 which might
have been invested in a plantation
upon which the board had an option.
In the operation of plantations con.
vict labor had been more remunera-
tive than in any other employment,
and If there has been any distinctive
policy of the board and the gov
ernor it has been to extend planta.
ton work. With this purpose in
view many months since the condi-
tional purchase of the Rodgers planta-
ton on the Brazos was made. But
the $4,000 cash, accumulated from
the sale OF cotton and sugar and the
hire of convicts to planters and rail-
roads, and which had been intended
for the purchase OF the plantation,
has been paid into the State treasury
and cannot be withdrawn without
legislative appropriation. The point
to which the board has been working
for two years fades from view and the
option on the Rodgers plantation is
OFT. Members of the board and peni-
tertiary officials have expressed con-
fidence in the operation of State con-
Wet plantations as the most satisfac.
tory solution OF the convict problem,
first yielding a surplus revenue
and next competing least with
free labor. Why, then, the unex-
pected abandonment of the cherished
plans of the board at the very mo-
ment their realization became posi-
BILE? Was it because there had been
an intimation that the new admins
tration would object? A proposition
to establish large bagging factory in
the penitentiary is urged by the chief
organ of the class of Democrats who
have created the successful ticket. Is
it possible that this demand intimi-
dated the outgoing administration of
the penitentiary? Ii this is the case
the members of the board will not
seek or accept appointment and it is
reported that some of them contem-
plate resignation. Whatever the &C.
casion of the abandonment OF the
administration plans, it is the subject
OF much interest upon which the
public would doubtless be pleased to
have some specific information"
