The Speakership Fight.

MIR. Springer has shown that
he is { good politician. In all
the contest over the speaker
ship he never once lost his
temper, and when he was fin
ally forced to yield he so man
aged as to bear away the
honors of the fray. This was
a great thing to do. In &C
complishing it he gratified his
friends, and at the same time
he administered d severe re-
buke to those who refused to
stand by him to the end.
Springer is an interchangeable
worker and by his action in
this struggle he has shown the
country that he possesses bet
ter metal than he has vet been
credited with. He has agreat
future before him if he will
but take care of himself. To
this end let him see that he
preserves his health. Most
members of congress give way
to some form of pulmonary
trouble. If Mr.. Springer will
take Reds German Cough
and Kidney Cure he will es-
cape all danger from this
source. This great remedy is
the best thing in the world for
coughs, colds and every form
of disease that attacks the re-
spiratory organs. This makes
it inva liable for men who
have to talk inpublic, especial
| ly in open air. The remedy
contains no Oplate, so that 1t
can be taken at any time with
out fear of subsequent danger
1t will cure all throat trouble
from simple hoarseness to the
worst 70 m of bronchitis, You
can get t of any druggist, but
be sure 10 ask for Reds, and
take no other.

that it is all a matter of taste.

horse steaks as a diet and be-
came so infatuated with them
during the siege of Paris that
it has chung to them ever since
may not be absolutely trusted
when 1t comes to question of
distinguishing between good
and bad butter. Even in Chi
cago a butcher was discovered
lately who had been carving
steak from street car horses
and selling them to cheap
boarding houses, and no one
of the boarders had been able
to tell the difference. This
fact speaks volumes for the
educated Chicago palate.

This respiratory organs. 1t

convert of spiritualism. The
senator is rich enough to be-
lieve anything he likes. 1t
will be interesting. though, to
ascertain whether the spirits
are urging him to make the
race for president on the alli-

that the senator can do, if he
has made up his mind to run,
is to take Reds German

diligence. This great remedy
is the best thing for the voice

all cough remedies it is the
only one of which this can be
said. Aged persons will find
this OF the greatest assistance

throw off the maladies that

From an exchange published in a
nearby Southern state we quote:
| There Is being fostered all over the South
| Southwest and Northwest. a hostility be-
| tween country and city populations. that
| the near future come home to plague the
| inventors Of the quarrel and recrimination.
| The city IS as necessary as the rural
| population to the highest development of
| our free society, to our commercial and IN
| dustrial independence 10 the promotion Of
| art. science. invention and breadth of gen
| Crll culture
The farmer is scarcely less dependent on
| lis fellow cOuutrymap Of the town than the
| latter is on The nus sandman.
These truths are self-evident, and it
| therefore goes without the saying that he
| who stirs up strife between them is an
enemy OF both, and Of the country.
Moreover, the city population IS growing
! at I much more rapid rate than that of the
| rural regions. They now could WELD
balance OF power in any political contest,
that would almost insure the success OF
| their measures in the halls of Legislation,
tJr til" city controls the votes and shapes
the opinions of the most enlightened and
prog reSsive country dwellers.
\ wholesome rivalry, "a careful looking
after their own interests by each, is all
right; but suspicion, attempts to Cypress
and put upon one another; these are not
only bad in morals, but wrong policy, and
dangerous 10 the peace and prosperity of
the whole.
These thoughts are peculiarly appli-
cable to conditions prevailing in Texas
TO bring the matter nearer home, we
may say That they are of more than or
binary interest TO the people OF Fort

SPORTING.
A Wild Horse Bolts the Track.

ST. LOUIS, Mo, Aug. 10.-A peculiar and
dangerous, if not fatal, accident occurred at
the fair grounds during the races. It was
while the running races in which half dozen
crack local roadsters had been entered were
being contested that the accident occurred.
When a short distance from the starting
point, Big Texas one of the entries,
bolted the track and dashed through the
track at the side, and, meeting light sulky
jumped clear over it and lighted on Capt
Thomas Parker, a prominent river man,
and the coachman named Thomas Edwards,
VINO were among the number of the specta-
tors who were viewing the sport. The horse
escaped into the field and the excitement
became intense, and to add to it, it was
found that Robert Hagart, a boy, had been
knocked senseless. but in what manner is
unknown. Edwards and Parker, who were
found to be unconscious. were removed to
their homes. Edwards will recover, but
Parker's injuries may prove fatal.

TRACY ExCORlATED.
State Senator Crane Goes for the SUBJ
Treasury Man without Gloves.

Attorney W. F. Ramsey of Cleburne is in
the city. He was present yesterday at the
Alliance picnic six miles west of Cleburne,
AT Lees academy, and in conversation with
GAZETTE reporter was glorying over the
eXcoriation which Sub-Treasury Tracy re-
ceived at the hands of Senator NJ. NJ. Crane.
Seven thousand people We're present and
witnessed Tracy's Waterloo. Several
times heretofore Democrats have been III
Vlted to debate this question with Coleman,
Macune and others, but have not been al
lowed TO speak. Yesterday the Democrats
were out in force and were determined that
no bluff game should be worked
Senator Crane spoke first, addressing the
crowd for an hour and "a half. Tracy fol-
lowed with a speech of the same length.
Senator Crane then closed his speech with
a half hours talk, and Tracy'S rejoinGer
was the same length. Mr.. Ramsey says
that the apostle of sub-treasuryism was
evidently ratified. and made all sorts of
statements and bold propositions. Tracy
said afterwards that Crane was the strong
est man he had yet met On this question,
and acknowledged that he was Il little
beSted in the argument.
The crowd was enthusiastic over the re-
suit and repeatedly cheered Senator Crane
as he one by one pointed out the fallacieS of
the sub-treasury fraud.
Mr.. Ramsey, just as the reporter was tax
ing mis- leave, said: 40 may say that we
III Johnson county are walked up over this
question and will furnish speakers to down
any sub-trcasury men-in fact, we rather

pitted against any of Alacune's bench

THERE are 4IS.3j6 alleged surviving
veterans on the pension rolls receiving
money from the national treasury.
Pending in the pension bureau are
original claims for pensions from sur
yivors Of the war. emitting all claims
for widows. numbering i6S,975, and
under the disability act are additional
claims for l79, PA survivors OF the war.
These aggregate S26545 pensioners
and want-to-be pensioners. There
were los, 707 men enlisted in the
Northern armies. Several hundred
thousand were killed. The war ended
. quarter of acentuly ago. and in that
twenty-five years many Of the Old SOL
diers have died. Nevertheless We find
that there are more than two-thirds Of
all the men who fought for the Union
now on the pension rolls of the nation.
There is such evident fraud here that
to deny it i to assert that two out OF
every three soldiers who enlisted in
the Union armies thirty years ago are
still alive and disabled in such manner
as 10 demand public support.
