SHORT STOPS.

What the People are Saying.
The people are becoming aroused to
the gravity of our public affairs.
The fact that there has been rock
less management on the part Of the
city government Is strongly impress
ed on the public mind.
How far this Encouragement has
verged upon criminality, can only be
disclosed by searching investigation.
There should be nothing personal
in the discussion of public affairs; the
government of our city is the property
OF the people; they pay the money
that keeps this government in motion;
1t is their business, and not the bust
ness of any individual.
If the press fails to call attention to
the way the public business Is done,
then it should have no support from
the public. ...
The killing of Editor Bowen, is 8
murder or homicide growing out of
the exercise OF the legitimate func-
tions of the freedom of the press.
Bowen fell victim to personal
journalism. But there is law, and
very severe law, affording ample
remedy to any man injured by the
public newspapers.
IfBowen abused the liberty of the
press and made his paper libellous,
Alice had his remedy in the court.
Ruffianism and murder are not only
abhorent to the civilization of the
day, but destructive to the best in
terests of the commu nifty.
Society feels the degradation, and
every good citizen experiences a sense
of insecurity when the law presents
no barrier against the acts of violence
and the taking of human life.
Gov. Hogg has emphasized his de-
termination to to have the laws en-
forced by his action in the pros ecu
ton Of Bowen's slayers.
Another governor, Edmund J. Dav-
is, coming into Office in the midst of
social disorder when the state was
torn from center to border, by out
lawry, was able to bring about a
reign of peace and law by the stern
of the law. He recognized
but two classes OF people in Texas
the good and the bad,-the law
and the law breakers, he
pledged himself TO suppress crime,
and he redeemed his pledge, but he
won the condemnation and abuse of
his political opponents, who charge
that laws was tyrant.

liar fame if he attempts to bring his
executive powers to bear in the pros.

Accident on an Elevator.

In one of New Yorks largest hotels they
have three elevators and OF course require
very powerful machinery to run them. one
of the guests who had gone to the theatre,
fingered for a nice little private spread at
Del's, and as the steak was particularly good,
s'you know" and his best girl in lovely
humor (who by the way was his wife, the
gentleman remained so long with his charm
ing companion over his Mumm's, that when
he reached his hotel the colored attendant of
the elevator had gone up stairs and falleninto
the arms of Murphy or Morpley, I'm not
sure which, Our friend believed in fresh cir
dina lived on the floor nearest the sky, so of
course he.was disappointed to find the elevator
closed for the night, He muttered something
to his wife and gave wrench at the iron
door leading to the elevator car. 1t opened
and he laughed and although his wife at first
refused to enter, he finally prevailed and
chuckled to himself as the elevator started
upwards, to think how he outdone the mouse,
and how the darkeys eyes woul ID stand out in
the morning, when he found the elevator at
the top of the house. When they got TO the
second floor from the top our friend thought
he might as well try to SLOW up little, put 10
his astonlshment he found he could not
check the unmanageable elevator. The pros
pect of a drop of nine stories flashed before
his mind also his wifes at the same instant:
result, tremendous yell from the gent and a
shrill scream from the lady. The attention OF
a gentleman on the floor below was attracted;
he jumbed to the elevator and glssped the
wire rope, holding with all his strength (and
he was Strong as he had lived in Texas for
twelve years. and he finally brought the Gle
vator TO a stop just in time, as it was found
on the following day that only one small
strand Of the heavy steel wire remained in
act but our neignbors were saved. They
were profuse in their thanks and when they
met the gentleman recognized their old
friend, ]. M Emerson of San Antonio, Texas,
and ne told his wife that he had such con-
fidence in Mr.. Emerson's firm that he would
wait until he went to San Antonio for the
earrings and baby buggy. Moral: II you
want ANYTHING cheap and good, go to Emer
sons. Emerson keeps everything and you
will be a customer for life if you deal with

"Hearn, my boy, you must come. We

very time when we want to stand by you
and show how much we hold you in
esteem"
Eyes" was the litter reply. eyes, my
colonel has given a glorious exhibition
Of what constitutes esprit de corps in
the Eleventh. No, captain, would do
anything for you or Mrs. Lane, but 1
can think, speak, dream of nothing now
but the wrong that has been done me,
and would only be a drag. You will
excuse me, won't you?"
"Come in, come into the house,
Hearn," answered Lane as they reached
the gate. Come in and talk it over
with Mrs. Lane and Miss Marshall; they
will do you good. They are both full of
sympathy. Come; it's quarter of an
hour before drill"
But Hearn shook his head and drew
away.
81 cannot" he. said; 81 must go;
there's my home letter yet unwritten"
And SO, with Lanes anxious eyes fol-
lowing him, he strobe rapidly away to
his quarters. There Jim Wallace joined
him at the gate.
Three hours later, however, with drill
over and the mail in, the question of din
ner became of minor Importance. Marked
copies of The Palladium had been re-
ceived by several officers, and the faces
of the group on Capt. Lanes piazza were
studies.
"Did the orderly take one to him, do
you know" asked Mr.. Lee, with world
of pent up indignation in his tone.
"Onew answered the major; lone! the
insult wouldn't be complete without it. l
think there were dozen papers, marked
copies, in his name"
HAS no one gone to see him?" asked
Mrs. Lane, her sweet face full of sorrow.
"The captain was there when the mail
came, so was Mr.. Wallace" answered
Miss Marshall in low tones. HE seemed
to anticipate something of the kind"
This will have tendency to make
Hearn rather homesick, Ifancy," drawled
Martin after solemn pause. 81 never
quite appreciated the benefit of southern
institutions before"
"Sick, admit-sick at heart, sick of
his cherished profession, perhaps; but
why homesick, Martini queried the
major.
"Oh, only because down south they
shoot a man who publishes an outrage

brings in verdict of justiiable homi-
eide"

The afternoon was lovely and full of
sunshine. Thanks to the startling and
sensational disclosures in The Palladium,
the post had become an object of unusual
interest to the surrounding populace, and,
as the hour for dress parade approached,
vehicles Of every description came stream
ing across the bridge, and before the
trumpet sounded first CALI the road in
front of the officers quarters was well
filled with carriages, buggies, carryalls
and light wagons, while some enterpris-
ing livery stable keeper had fitted up
few open stages and PlGcarded them with
inscriptions setting forth that TO the
fort and back only quarter, was lux
ury now within the reach of everybody.

hack from the stables, and Mr.. Abrams,
Of Chicago, again alighted from his bug

appreciation of the fact that he was the
popular hero OF the moment-the daring
journalist who had bearded the lion in
his den, had publicly denounced the
brutality of these arrogant wearers of
straps and swords, and had even brought
to the bar Of justice one of their num-
Der. There was the utmost curiosity to
see the representative Of The Palladium,

principles Of conforming with the views
and wishes of the public, graciously &C

The Washington Post revives the old ex-
ploded story about President Davis attempt
ing to escape in womans clothing, and COM
ments upon what il calls the lack of dignity
evinced by such an attempt The only
ground for this story was the fact that Mr..
Davis, when captured, TO protect him from
the rain falling at the time, had thrown
shawl over his head. But, were it other
wise and if he had worn wOmans whole
outfit, many another brave man has resorted
to such means to escape what he, In view oil
the then existing circumstances, naturally
supposed was death. But the Post has never
a word to say about the not only undigniiied,
but cowardly, manner in which President
Lincoln, in time of peace, disguised himself
and sneaked into the capital of his own sec
ton, with no enemy in sight, and protected
by the U. S. army.-AHraadria Gazette.

Many papers are discussing the question,
"How to encourage an Editor" One OF
them says chat as rule the editor gets a
thousand kicks to one caress. Once in a
while he gets Il kind word, and it warns
and cheers his storm beaten, weather crack
ed heart to its innermost core Most peo-
pie are afraid to tell an editor when he
writes an article thatp particular pleases them,
for fear of making him proud, we suppose,
but if they find anything that does not ac-
cord precisely with their views they will
neglect their business to hunt him up and
tell him of it," To this the Charleston Is.
c. World adds That's all very pretty
maybe but the proper way to encourage
an editor is to subscribe to his paper and
advertise literally in it."
