TrF.CLE FOR THE PEOPLE.

Nothing can surpass the profound
respect which the anti-administration
organs now profess for the sovereign
people, save and except the profounder
contempt in which they held them
last fall after they had declared their
choice for governor. When the peo-
pie said they would have Jim Hogg
and no other for governor they were
pIayfully and tippantly alluded to as
anarchists " communists and the
riff-raff OF creation. Now when war
is declared against the governor these
same anarchists and communists that
elected him are told that they are the
salt OF the earth, Solomons all, and
that it was 4 cruel shame to rob
them of the privilege and the right
of electing three railway commits
sioners. Six months ago they did
not know enough to elect a decent
governor. Now they are each and
all bubbling fountains OF wisdom,
sagacity and patriotism. If the peo-
pile believe what the organs alluded
to said OF them six or eight months
ago, they will swallow the sickening
treacle that is now being ladled out
TO them. but not otherwise.

SENATOR VANCE'S VIEWS.
He Says Cleveland is Not in It-Palmer the
Man for 80, Only That He is
too far in Years.
Senator Vance Interviewed.

Special to the Gazette.
WASHINGTON, April Ex-senator Vance
yesterday ut Asheville, \. c., said in re-
gard to the presidential nomination in 1892 ::
There can be no accurate prophecy OF the
subject, but for Cleveland's position on the
silver question l think he would have the
lead, but that letter of his on free coinage
weakened MIN with all classes, and especi-
ally with the Farmers Alliance
The senator then said that John NJ.
Palmer of Illinois had won great victory,
and was one of the most popular men in the
United States. IF he We're strong enough
and not too old to stand the fatigue OF the
campaign, Gen. Palmer would be one Of the
strongest Democrats that could be named,
and undoubtedly could be elected. l dom
think the Democrats can elect any man who
is straight out against free coinage"
As to the Speakership Of the next house
the senator said he had always expressed
himself against the policy of the South
claiming this position for one of her repre-
sentatives. He thought the North ought
to have it.
Senator and Mrs. Vance viii sail for
Europe in May next.

TOWN AND COUNTRY POPULATION.


As the census reports testify, 29.12
per cent of the population OF this coun-
try lives in cities and towns. Very near
one-third OF all our people are towns
people.
But this urban population is very I'M
equally distributed over the country.
The North Atlantic states have the
largest proportion, where 1922 per
cent, or about one-half OF all the peo-
pie, live in towns and cities. In
the South Atlantic states and the
South Central states the percentage is
but 1..9 and 6.29 respectively.
The Southern cities must grow.
They will never, perhaps, be as popu-
lous in proportion to the whole people
IS the cities of the Northern states, for
We are more purely an agricultural
people in the South, and there is so
much more good land unoccupied in
the South than in the North to allow
for expansion in that direction. but the
Southern cities must reach place of
far greater importance than they hold
at present. As the Northern states
overflow, the surplus seeks the South,
and these people bring with them their
preferences for city life.
The diversion OF manufacturing en-
terprise southwark viii have the
greatest effect in changing the char
acter OF our population and bringing
people TO the cities.
In 1900 there will be at least two
cities in Texas that will number 1O0,-
900 people or more. One of these cities
will be Fort Worth. The other-that
