CUT-THRoAT personal politics and a
desire to get the receivership in the
Federal court seems to have been at
the bottom of the International rail-
road receivership. AS extravaganza as
they were, the allowances were not SO
much as the Mccormick and Clark al
lowance In the Cotton Belt case. That
was SO enormous that it caused men,
ton in the United States senate and
called out the 'Dear Coke" and s'Dear
George" letter still familiar in Texas
political literature.

If, as predicted by Mr.. Carlisle and
other Democratic leaders, a reduction
in the tariff means no reduction in the
annual revenue, then where will the
deficit come in on which to issue legal
tenders? If we are to have banks of
circulation instead of national banks,
on what basis will they secure the
government for legal tenders advanced
them? The ablest speech or letter
won't enable any one to escape the issue.
The party will have to meet it in this
congress and the next platform.

That railroad advertising arrangement of
the Galveston News may b1au right, but it
certainly does give the Exr ess longing
to revamp its contracts for that class Of
advertising matter. The principal thing to
do with railroad is to abuse it on the out
side and "miliz" it when the opportunity is
given; and people have come to takeit for
granted that every body who can get pull
at the teat is justified in working it for all
there is in it.

Legitimate Gold Exports.

Special to the Ga2ette.
NEW YORK, June 22.-Lazard Freres, who
Saturday shipped $500, 600 in gold to Lon
don and Paris, to-day took $3.50, 600 in gold
coin from the sub-treasury and will ship
that and s120, 900 of gold received from San
Francisco to the continent Of Europe by the
Spree tomorrow. Leading bankers regard
the shipments by this firm as legitimate
rates of exchange and the volume of bust
ness both justifying export.
Some of them predict a continuation of
the movement during the rest of June and
in the early part of July.

Missouri, Kansas and Texas gives notice
that orders upon the railway company for
its new common stock will be issued on

As to Watering Founts.

The suggestion in THE GAZETTE that ad-

around the city meets with the hearty ap-
proval OF the Transfers and farmers who
come to the city almost daily. They say
that where these fouuts are provided it
saves them the expense OF stable charges.
and thus renders their trips to the city more
profitable. Water doesn't cost much, and q
few additional watering troughs viii doubt

our times their cost.

All over the United States legislation is
being enacted, and societies are being or
ganized, looking to the better treatment of
animals. AS matter Of fact those who
own valuable animals or breed than for
service or profit, find that attendi1 to their
diseases OF injuries is not only dmane, but
it pays. Like honesty, kin Ness in such
cases is the besfNplicy.
AS is well known Sposa5 f the diseases and
injuries of the dome9I animals are exte-
rior, and for the mos Iequent, especially
such as strains, gall and sores, ring-bone,
SPAWN, swellings stifnks, inflammation,
stings and bites, Ell there no applicar
ton known to veterinarians Mat in any
way can be compared to Mansfa1's Magic
Arnica Liniment.
All the societies and laws in the country
together have not done as much to relieve
the sufferings of the brute creation, the
crippled, the lame and the halt, as has this
Incompatible preparation.
1t is as good for sheep and cattle - for
horses or dogs, and in q largo class Of cases
it serves as disinfectant IS well Is re-
lieves the pain. It not only relieves, 1t
cures, and none who have animals about
them they value should be without it.

THE OFFICE OF THE PRESS.

When every allowance is made for ex-
aggeration, speculation, malicious mis-
representation, and mere sensationalism
concerning corruption in high places, it
remains that venality in political concerns
in this country, and notably in this State,
is alarmingly great and widespread.
Ii there We're no sustenance for vote
brokers they would not flourish; they
are factors in political activity because
there are political agents and trusts NOV
ing upon SO low moral plane as to invite
the offices of the go-betweens and the
bidding of vote-buyers.
If the corrupt lobbyist did not find his
calling profitable, he would abandon it;
votes are trafficlled in because there are
birthrights, manly independence and
oaths and solemn trusts to be BETRAYED
and sold. The corruption that has made
place the chattel of the auction block, and
the accomplishment Of legislation mat
ter of bargain and sale, is the chief menace
But nearly all great ills by their viru-
lence suggest remedies, and political
venality emboldened by non-interference
brings on revolt. It is so to-day; the in
dications are all of character significant
of the beginning of publication, of the
political and official atmosphere. Men
have wearied of the effrontery of political
barter, and through that potential expon-
the ofpublic opinion, the press, ARE voicing
their resolution that venality shall be
throttled and the arrogance of ill-used
wealth and political greed be checked.
In the press expressions of the day we
think we read the resolution of that pub
lie Intelligence to apply the remedy of
publicity to all cases of corrupt dealing.
The remarkable unanimity of sentiment
among the journals Of the time upon this
subject testifies to a sincere and deter
mined purpose, regardless of party lines
or political faiths, to stamp out corruption,
and to make venal practices so perilous
that they will be engaged in only at i'm
minent risk of being held up to public
gaze, and of punishment being visited
upon those who are guilty. If the press
accomplishes so high purpose as it ap-
pears to have set out to attain in this re-
spect, it will demonstrate that it is the
best Of corrective agencies and the most
direct and drastic of remedies.

TIE Boston Home Journal says that
no one succeeds so surely in this life as a
man willing to gull the world. 1t cites
in defense of its proposition the case of
the doctor who offers to perform miracles,
who becomes rich; the banker who offers
to do the impossible, that gets the depos-
its; the merchant who offers to sell things
for less than they cost, who draws the
is that these people, and all of their kind,
are sooner or later found out, and when
the public once loses faith in one of its
members, the descent of the man is some
thing fearful. The Journal is wholly
wrong when it says that the public will
not learn that philanthropy is not the law
Of life. 1t does learn it; it knows well
enough that something is not given for
nothing in business, or outside of pure
charity, or close friendship. Because for
time the natural disposition to, get
something at less than cost, to secure ad-
vantage without output of energy, to take
by-road that promises freedom from
obstacles instead of the way of certainty
and labor, is INDUCED, does not prove
that the people are gullible or that i'm
posters succeed. The truth is that merit
and legitimate. business methods win
oftener bya thousand-fold than do charla-
tans and cheats. The few instances of sue
cess by the latter attract our attention,
but we are not SO much drawn to think
upon the countless cases of legitimate
traders and professional men who sue
ceed without resort to clap-trap, and who
do not promise gain without exertion or
goods without price. The consequence is
that a single case of successful life by a
cheat we make do duty as type Of very
much smaller class than is supposed. 1t
is obvious that this must be true. If the
cheats, preponderated, there would be
such uncertainty in trade that it would
collapse. If the charlatans outnumber
the legitimists-and those who gull the
world are more numerous than those who
give value received-then it must be that
the people are fools, and incapable of
resisting deceit. The public is gulled, it
is true; it is often cheated, but the num-
Der of cheats who succeed through life by
such practices is infinitely small COM
pared with those who pursue legitimate
and conventional r,,etbodc Soc;ot,- dooe,
judge men rightly, as a whole It ap-
proves and supports the diligent and
fair-dealing; it does not maintain in sue
cess he man who deceives and gulls it.
Observation in daily walks will convince
anyone of this truth.

WIGGINs, the weather prophet and as
Economical seer, is at it again with fore
cast of trouble for mortals in the United
States. Unfortunately for Virgins, but
few of his prophecies have been verified.
1t is true that about the time he has set
for meteorological disturbances there has
been some stormy weather, but of all his
predictions of dire disaster, none have
been really fulfilled. Virgins is a
meteorologist of some prominence in the
Canadas, and we believe holds Govern
ment position in the Weather Service
Bureau of the Dominion. This gives to
his utterances, therefore, something more
OF weight than if coming from private
individual. But Professor Virgins lacks
the true proofs of the prophet-his proph-
ecies do not come to pass.

The French are ranked as the polite
people OF the world above all others.
Their treatment of the German Empress
does not sustain their claim in that re-
spect. Germany did not offer France
any indignity in permitting the Empress
to visit Paris. The French did offend by
their conduct during her stay. The peo-
pie of France, in their individual rela-
tions, are, unquestionably exceedingly
careful of the proprieties; but aggregated
as the French nation, they certainly do
things that would be laughable were not
the threatened consequences usually so
serious. Gallantry in the Frenchman is
proyerbial; restraint of ill-feeling by the
French people is the chief complaint
against France. For instance, France
prohibits-p practically-her artists from
exhibiting their works at the German
Capital. Should any country so act to-
wards US we would snap our fingers.
tip tilt our noses and tell the offender to
go hang. But in Europe there is greater
sensibility to insult, and it is easy to un-
derstand, therefore, why Germans feel
that they have been slapped in the face
by their neighbor. A Government that
can descend to such low measures, such
mere child's play, cannot command re-
spect; Government that, in fear of the
The record-union., 1891-03-12

worst classes of its society, refuses to do
common honors to the guest who halls
nor manly. The very fact that such
classes COW the Government is porten-
tious. If they can thus make France i'm
polite, they can force her into war; but as
surely they will not do the fighting. The
truth is, that France, in both the matter
of the visit OF the Empress and the case
of the artists, has acted unworthily of
French gallantry, and has excited the pity,
not to say the scorn, of manly peoples.
