A scene.

Mrs, Annie Smith, o middle-aged
woman, and her three sons, aged 10, 8
q Q years respectively, figured In o
sad scene in the mayors Office in ST.
Louis the other morning. She led the
three boys, all bright and neatly-dressed
children, into the Office and asked to
have them committed Il the house Of
refuge. She said that her husband was
sick and unable TO work by eason Of his
habits, and that as she had ayoung child
and was compelled TO work herself she
could not take care Of the boys, says the
Post-Dispatch. When Sergeant McGrew
began to question her, she became indig-
nant, and showed q d~isinclination TO
answer him. When she was given 10
understand the boys would not be taken
of her hands by the city unless she gave
the information sought, she materially
altered her tone.
When the little fellows were turned
over to a big policeman for removal to
the house OF refuge, the building rang
with their cries and appeals TO their
mother TO save them. The crowd In
the Office attracted by the cries Of the
little fellows vas touched by the scene;
but III Mrs. Smith was touched to any
great extent she exercised a mastery
control over her feelings.

A GRAND ARMY MAN.
One OF the Leading Members of that Body in
Texas Relates soms Incidents of His
Trip 10 the North.

Mr.. D. s. Brown has returned from
the North, whittier he went with other
members Of the Texas department of tn e
Grand Army of the Republic TO attend
the national encampment at Boston.
Unfortunately for him, owing to an at
tack of sickness, he was not able to con-
tinue his journey, but fortunately for
the cause OF Texas immigration be was
compelled to lie over in Pennsylvania,
where, between Pittsburg and PhiIadel-
phia, he spent couple of weeks spread
ing the glories of the state of his adop-
ton among the tilIers of the soil OF that
country.
Mr.. Brown, besides being q Leading
member of the Grand Army In Texas, is
also one OF the leaders OF the Republican
party in Tarrant county. Up to the re-
cent county Republican convention he
held the position of chairman of the
county executive COMMITTEE. In the
Grand Army he is past post commander,
past senior vice department commander
and present assistant inspector general
OF the department of Texas. He is an
Ohioan by birth, but has lived in Texas
for eighteen years. The people among
whom he circulated in the North are

Of for years was based on the postulate
that the people could be enriched by tax
alton. For that avowed purpose, the
taxing power of the government has been
used faithfully since the war.
But that is not all. He says further in
the same line that "the home market is
so completely possessed that IN conflict
of interests, every principle of protection
has been in many instances self-thwart-
ing and contradictory. p" That declaration
Is trifle obscure, but probably means
that the tariff fosters trusts and COM
blnes which are thereby enabled to con-
troll the home market, and permit such
reduction in prices as competition and
improved methods and machinery would
naturally and inevitably cause. Such Is
his meaning, we take It, of "complete
possession of the home market" Again
Is he right, but ridiculously contradict
tory of himself in stating at the outset
that the bill which perpetuates to trusts
and combines the "complete possession
of the home market, is in its general
aspect and as an entirety, O wisely de-
vised bill What arrant nonsense
that is. How can measure that
"thwarts and makes contradictory erery
principle Of protection, be'' wisely de-
vised2
What grotesque and ludicrous ex-
hibition Republican makes who tries to
play for the gallery and the dress circle
at the same time. Davis is q dema-
gogue, who knows and admits that the
tariff Is q humbug and an injustice, but
lacks the courage to break with the ma
chine. Like many others of his breth-
ren, he has backbone of putty.

For q Convention of Texans Interested in
Developing the Manufacturing and Her
camille interests of the State.

SECRETARY OFFICE.
Fort WORTH, TEX, Aug. Il, 1880. }
A convention of delegates from trade
and manufacturing organizations, munic-
qualities and people interested in devel-
oping the manufacturing and mercantile
interests of Texas has been called to
meet in Fort Worth on September "a,
1890, for the purpose of devising ways
and means TO induce capital to seek our
state and accomplish this object.
The advantage to accrue to the peopls
of Texas by having our raw material,
found in endless quantity in this state,
manufactured into merchan table COM
modities must be patent to every mind
that has given the subject careful con-
siderstion. Manufacturers are disposed
TO come to our state, capitalists are ia
vorably disposed, but there has been no
united action to place before them the
facts about our resources and the vast
field open TO them and wholesale mer-
chants. This convention IS called to
meet the demand made upon the state.
1t is proposed to have Eastern and
Northern manufacturers aud capitalists
present at our deliberations. Governor
Ross has Expressed a willingness to CO.
operate in the matter.
To this end you are cordially invited
and requested to send one or more dele
gates from your organization, munich
pality or county to this convention.
Efforts will be made to arrange with the
railway companies for reduced rates TO
delegates aud others who attend. AZ
the time is short we respectfully urge
immediate action and request that you
send TO the secretary of the Fort Worth
chamber of commerce the names of
those selected TO represent you IN the
convention.

DONNTBROOK FAIR OUTDONE IN
THE HOUSE.

The row IN the house Wednesday was
the most interesting event that has taken
place in that body for some time. Since
the passage through that body of the
force bill nothing worthy of mention has
been done there, beyond quarreling and
growing over private pension bills and
other such petty matters. The enfor ced
detention of members who want to go
Cannon & Co. has had its natural effec'
on their followers. AS a leader on the
floor Cannon is a coarse, gross and vul-
gar bully, who has earned the dislike of
Republicans as well as Democrats. En-
forcing the orders of Reed it could not
be we'll otherwise. So when Mason, q
nounoed him, after his obscene
reply to Democrat, MoAdoo, as a id
liar, scoundrel and tramp. 1t is prob
able that he echoed to some extent the
sentiments of a number of Republicans
who have had to submit in silence to the
contemptuous snubbing which they have
endured for months at the hands of Reed
and his spokesman Cannon. When VIII
son, as obscure fellow from the state Of
Washington, came to the support of Can
non, another Republican, Beckwith of
New Jersey, mounted Wilson'S frame
Instantly, as If to do him up. The SER
geant-at-arms with the aid of friends
separated the combatsnts, and put an
end TO the melee.
A cry will doubtless go up from party
organs, calling upon congress to adjourn
and go home. That is certainly what it
ought to do, and should have done some
time ago. But what pity 1t would be
to adjourn now when Reeds bear garden
is getting to be SO interesting. What
jolly spectacle it is TO see the God and
morality patriots of the party of great
moral ideas clapper clawing aud de-
each other, raking the slums
and cutters for epithets and language
vile enough to express their sentiments
towards each other, while sorambling
and fighting over plundering and corrupt
