WHO PAYS THE FREIGHT?

The Henderson Times, representing
East Texas sentiment, favors the alien
land law as amended by MIR. GOssett,
and opposes 4 special session. a special
session would not only re-apportion the
legislative districts and give political
Justice to West Texas, but it might
amend the Gossett alien land law and
give cheap money to West Texas.
But who pays the freight? Let the
official figures from the comptroller's
report tell.
Angelina county IN East Texas pays,
n state and school taxes $1,000 annu-
ally more than itdraws from the school
fund apportionment. Archer county in
West Texas pays in $500 annually, and
draws out Sl1G0 annually.
Cherokee in East Texas pays not
quite SIS, coo and draws out over S2l,-
900. Bell county in West Texas pays
over So, 900 and draws $50, 900. Brown
county in West Teyas pays $1,000 and
draws out less than $4,000. Callahan
county in West Texas pays $1,000 and
receives $1,000.
Frecstone in East Texas pays not
quite $ll eco and draws out over SlS,-
900. Baylor in West Texas pays in
5000 and draws cut $1,000. Childress
in West Texas pays in nearly 5000 and
draws out 500. Clay county in West
Texas pays in over sI4, 900 and draws
out less than $4,000.
Leon county in East Texas pays in
less than $4,000 and draws out over
$4,000 Hardeman county in West
Texas pays in $4,000 and draws out less
than $1,000. Wichita county in West
Texas pays in nearly $4,000 and draws
out less than $1,000. Wilbarger in
West Texas pays in nearly Sl3, 900 and
draws out less than $4,000.
Rusk county in East Texas pays in
$4,000 and draws out over S2l, 200.
Runnels in West Texas pays in nearly
$4,000 and draws out less than $1,000.
Throckmorton in West Texas pays in
over 5000 and draws out less than
$1,000. Taylor in West Texas pays in
over $4,000 and draws out less than
$4,000.
And SO on with the entire list OF
counties. Before the West Texas
press unites with the Henderson Times
the West should study the figures and
see how West Texas is taxed TO subsi-
die Rusk and other counties that deny
political justice to West Texas.
The men who pay the freight should
have the votes they are entitled to and
the cheap money they need, to still
further develop the boundless West.

THE sub-treasury Alliance people are
unreasonable. They profess to favor
equal rights to all and to oppose special
privileges to any. They also profess
that the Alliance exactS no partisan re-
quirements OF its members. But the
sub-treasuryitas eXpel all who differ
with them, and denounce newspapers
that refuse to accept the sub-treasury
scheme of finance. The sub-treasury-
ties arc intolerant, arrogant, and
preach what they do not practice. This
is free country, and men can do as
they please, politically. Men have a
right to be Democrats, Republicans or
FIaard -partyites, and the sub-treasury
bosses cannot prevent.

HISTORICAL PARALLEL.

In 1873 the bill to demonetize silver
was put through congress, and i: re-
ceived the votes OF many members who
were friends to q silver currency. The
bill was so drawn that its true object
was skillfully hidden, and only the
most searching scrutiny could detect
the blow at the silver dollar. Being
called up and rushed through at the
close OF q session, no opportunity was
allowed for this scrutiny, and it was
more than year until the country
learned that silver had been surrepti-
tiously demonetized. Even the presi-
dent did not know he had signed bill
demonetizing silver.
We make mention of this most fla
grant and now widely known piece Of
sharp practice to show how easy it is to
carry through questionable bill in the
closing hours OF legislature, when
members have not time to give that
thought and inquiry to bill that
should be bestowed upon every pro-
posed law. By such means the Gossett
amendment to the alien land law was
put in the body of that bin few days
before the legislature adjourned.
Nearly every member OF that body
wanted law enacted that should pre-
vent the acquisition OF large bodies of
lands by aliens, and their holding in
perpetuity. The people of the state,
without regard to party or faction,
called for such law. AS it was orig
inally submitted to the committee hay
ing the bill in charge, this was its sole
intention and end. Members read it,
and seeing nothing bad about the bill,
resolved to vote for it. The newSpa-
pers published synopses and approved
the bill, for it did nothing but prohibit
the acquisition, by purchase, of land by
aliens. Under this misrepresentation
the bill was called up shortly before
the legislature adjourned, hastily read
over by the clerk, and put through.
In the meantime, however, Mr.. Gossett.
a member of the committee that had it
in charge, had inserted clause that in
effect prohibited the taking of landed
security by a foreign loan company or
individual. or domestic loan company
If foreigner had any interest in it.
Without any thought that they were
voting for law that was to drive mil
lions of dollars of cheap loans from the
state and bring bankruptcy upon thou
sands OF our citizens, this bill was put
upon its passage, and receiving the
governors signature, became law.
This was about the middle of April.
Not until the latter part Of June did the
people of the state have any knowledge
that the alien land law affected foreign
money, upon which they had come to
depend very largely for the means OF
developing the states resources and
putting forward its industries. When
some lawyer. who had got a copy of the
bill and discovered the hidden evil in
it, first announced its effect, the most
astonished Of all men were some Of the
legislators who had voted for it. They
had been fooled into voting for law
that they had no hesitation in denounc-

THE COMMISSION.

Confidence in the railroad commits.
sion has grown amazingly in the past
two months, and among all classes OF
people too, not excepting many Of those
nervous and apprehensive folks who
looked with naught but dread upon any
Interference by the state in the affairs
OF the railroads. The cautious and
conservative manner in which the com
mission has entered upon the difficult
task before it, and the friendly DISPOSE
ton which it has uniformly manifested
for the roads, while keeping steadily in
view the rights of the shipper and the
consumer, have treasured the traffic
men themselves, and allayed whatever
serious approximations they may have
felt, if any. The truth is that they
have never had cause to fear the COM
mission, as under the law itself the
courts are wide open to them to correct
any wrongs or injustices inflicted upon
them.
But howsoever cautious ard consid-
crate its action, somebody is going to
be displeased, and critics will find fault.
That is the case now under a system
that the railroad men themselves are
wont TO praise as the result Of many
years experience and the hig hest order
OF executive ability. But while the
commission is not infallibie, it should
be remembered by the fault-fnders that
it is in position to understand the
railroad situation far better than
any individual can: that it knows
and can estimate far more ac-
curately than any outsider can, the
numerous factors and conditions that
enter into the complex problem OF rate
making, and that, all things consid-
cred, it is far more apt to be right
than the man whose view is limited
and knowledge slight. There is this
about it, also: If it should make mis-
take it can correct the mistake the
moment the fact is made known.
OF course all this is based on the
assumption that the commission is COM
posed OF men of honesty, ability and
clear-sightedness. If anyone is cap
tiouS or mean enough to question the
validity OF the assumption. there is no
hove for him. He belongs with the IT,
rcconcilables.

EAST TEXAS needs no money-it is
subsidized by the state, ana can favor
any law like the Gossett amendment
that obstructs the developments OF West
Texas and the transfer of political con-
troll to the western half OF the state.
East Texas has a good thing and
knows it. West Texas, in liz own in
terest, can safely oppose any law ia
vored by the Henderson Times. Rusk
county is subsidized to the extent of
5000 annually. With cheap money
ard an honest superintendent, West
Texas would come to its own, and Rusk
Sourty would have to rustic for liv-
NJ, as West Texas has been doing all
SMcsc years.

JERRY SIMPSON says: 'At the next
meeting OF the order Mr.. Hall will be
thrown overheard. We intend to strip
to fight in the coming fight, and We do
not intend to have any traitors among
US. II a man cannot stand on the Ocala
platform, he must leave US and go into
ONE ether organization where he can
find standing room. We do not intend
to be embarrassed with either traitors
or people who do not agree with US,
We inteSd to have candidate for pres
ident in 1892, and we are going to win.
We will have a hard enough fight
without being encountered by half
hearted soldiers ON our own side"
This is official. Jerry is a power in the
Alliance, socks or no socks. The
farmer who doesn't whoop for Jerry
and his side can't get out any too soon.

the extra session. " i'll be so amended as to
make it more binding. This is prediction.

"Foolishness" is mild term to apply
to provision that threatens TO oank-
rupt thousands of Texas citizens at the
behest of men who cannot possibly be-
come the prey OF mortgage companies,
being protected against borrowins

stead law. Foolishness, yes; but it is
more than that-it is crime against
the state, since the ruin wrought by the
Gossett amendment will react upon all.

have been devised. BY such means
was the Gossett amendment to the alien
land law put upon the statute books o!
TeXas-by just such means as the crafty
enemies OF the silver dollar disabled it
and reached their ends.
The people of Texas now ask tbe
legislature to undo the evil that it IN
consciously did. They do not want he
alien land law repealed. 1t suits them.
But they do want cheap money. andall
OF it that they can get, and to this ebd
they ask that the law be SO amended as
to let foreign land companies hold land
for five or six years, when they have to
take it for debt. This is all the change
that is called for.

THE men who are raising the loudest
veil in favor OF an alien land law OF the
Gossett kind are the men who could
Not borrow money of mortgage COM
fpantes, because they have no more land
than is protected by the homestead
law from mortgage. This Gossett law
IS the most selfish and most cruel law
ever enacted in any state. Ii is law
to prevent people from getting money
to save themselves from bankruptcy
and to depreciate the value of real es-
tate in Texas from p to 80 per cent.
IF not amended, it is law that will go
home to roost on the fences OF those
who uphold it. No considerable body
OF people in state can be bankrupted
without hurt to all the people Of that
state.

WHO TELLS THE TEUTH2

While the sub-treasuryites at the
Dallas meeting were assuring US that
the Alliance was not a political institu-
ton, and would take no part whatever
in partisan politics, President Polk,
the big mogul OF them all, was telling
the Associated Press at Washington
that the Alliance ives in politics up to
its eyes, and would have a national
ticket in the field next year. Now whom
are We to believe? President Jones or
