The farmers alliance convention at
Pertle Springs did not endorse the
sub. treasury scheme, but referred it
to the county associations for ratili
cation or rejection. This is claimed to
be a, victory for the Hall side and
was secured under threats of a bolt.
The fact remains that the farmers
are in the alliance for all there is in
it, and that they intend to have

THE TARIFF ON HAT TRIMMINGS.


The verdict rendered recently at
Philadelphia in the case of Meyer &
Dickinson against the United States
for excess of duties on silk for trim
ming hats, shows how the tariff often
proves double blessing to the pro-
tected barons: how they frequently
manage to catch the coon, both gwine
and comm. II this verdict by jury
be affirmed by the higher court, the
decision will make the government
liable to the importers of hat trimming
material, who have been paying for
years a fifty-cent duty thereon, for the
difference between that rate and the
twenty-cent rate, which the Philadel-
phia jury says should have been
charged them, or total of twenty or
thirty millions. OF course every maker
and trimmer of hats that imported q
yard of trimming Of the material in
question, will demand repayment by
the government of the excess of duty
paid by him thereon. Not that he is
out that sum or any other, for he is
not. II anybody is, it is the people
who bought and wear his hats. He
paid the excess Of duty to the govern
ment. but added it to the price Of his

THE superiority of South Texas as q
breeding ground has long been recog'
nized among stockmen, though the quail.
ity of the calves produced is so poor
that they bring in the market only
about half as much as North Texas cat
tie. The scholastic census shows that
South Texas is as good for babies as for
calves. San Antonio, with population
of $4,000, has 1854 school children, or
more than one to four of the total popu-
lation. Fort Worth, with $4,000 popu-
lation, has 3208 school children, or one
to seven. But when the quality is
taken into consideration, the Fort
Worth kid is about as good as the North
Texas calf. Fewer and better is the
Fort Worth motto.

The Gold-Bugs are as blind to the
impending financial revolution as were
the French aristocrats to the revolution
that sent fair necks to the block. And
the Fiat Money advocates are as blind
as were the French canaille, who were
vain enough to believe anarchy was
law. Between these extremes is the
happy mean. Neither financial aristo-
Gratis nor financial anarchists will ever
control permanently the finances of
this republic of intelligence and pa
triotism. Gold and silver will be the
solution, with treasury notes issued
direct in such volume as the needs of
the country demand.

REALTY AND BUILDING.
REAL PROGRESS THE ORDER
OF THE DAY.
Building Up Our Factory Interssts-Two
New Lakes-The New Street
Car Line-Transfers.

Taken altogether, the past week was &
satisfactory one for Fort Worth. The
record Of real progress has been published
from day to day, and shows that Fort
Worth people are devoting their attention
at this time to factory ENTERPRISES and
building houses and street car lines. These
things give that permanent value to real
estate which property owners so much de.
sire. Add 1000 men to our population who
earn good wages and you give actual value
to 1000 lots for homes, and to several bust
ness lots for stores at which the 1000 fami-
lies will trade. This is real progress, and
this is what will make city.

DEMOCRATIC farmers are justified in
sitting down on all those conceited pol
iticians who think they can bulldoze,
scare or hoodwink the farmer, instead
of arguing things fairly with him.
He ought to read those high priests
out of the Democratic party who try to
read him out without any authority in
the national platform. 1t wouldn't
hurt anything for the Democratic
farmer to rid the party of the politi-
clan who is too big for his Democratic
breeches.

Down WITH PAupER LABOR.

For the protection of American
workingmen, a law was made that pro-
hibited the bringing Of any person to
this country under contract to do work.
This law has been in force for several
years, and it has been construed by the
courts very comprehensively. It is
held to exclude persons coming to this
country under an agreement of any
kind to take any kind of employment.
An English preacher that was brought
over by rich and fashionable New
York congregation to expound the
Gospel to them. was packed back home
because this law excluded him. A lot
of German musicians were sent back
home because the law was held to stand

in their way. No foreign preacher
could preach, no alien could toot his
horn in competition with our home
born theologians and horn-blowers.
American for Americans. American
theology for American sinners; Ameri-
can music for American ears, was the
demand.
Another step forward is about to be
taken in vindication of the rights of
Americans and against the pauper labor
OF Europe. A protest has gone up to
the proper authorities against the adj
mission of Slavin, because it was a
violation of the contract labor law, as
1t is alleged that he came to this coun-
try under contract to labor with GER
tain Mr.. Kilrain. This should turn out
to be an easy case. The proof is all at
hand. It only needs to be established
that a contract was made before he
came. The subsequent proceedings are
simple. 1t is easy to prove that he car
ried out his agreement; that he did
labor with Mr.. Kilrain, and that in
this case. as in many others. American
labor could not stand up against the
pauper labor of Europe. but was
speedily knocked out. The offense is
plain. Send the offender back to his
home before he gets chance TO knock
out another American laborer by the
power OF his pauper muscles. Ameri-
can sluggers must be protected.

THERE are two classes of Democrats
in Texas. One is Democratic for the
spoils and doesn't care for the platform
or the principles so there is prospect
OF spoils. The others are Democrats
from principle and because they believe
the Democratic party is the party of
the people. This better class believes
in campaign of education and posi-
tive platform. The better class believe
there are men in every neighborhood
capable of representing and enlighten-
ing them, the other class believing the
