who, under the natural condition of busi-
ness, would have been able to meet their
obligations, but who did not and could
not foresee such suicidal conduct at
Austin. II our legislators had stayed at
home and we had just been left alone, the
splendid crops which kind providence has
sent US, and the working of natural causes
would by this time, as they have done in
other parts f our country, helped long
way toward lifting US up from the general
depression.
This injustice will be removed. but must
we wait until thousands of the best men Of
the state are ruinedl Until we are set
back for years2 No one class in a commun-
ity is helped by destroying another. We
cannot go back if we would to the Eight
zenith century and the OK team. If we do
not keep step with the march of our times,
we can only sink and suffer.

A REPORT comes from Cleveland,
Ohio, that Congressman Tom johnson
Of that city is managing Mills speak
ership canvass. Who knows Congress
man Tom Johnson OF Cleveland? He is
quoted as saying that mills is radi-
cal, and with Mills as speaker the
policy of the house viii be radical"
Yes, and in that event the tri-
umph Of the Republicans next year will
be radical, and the humiliation Of the
Democrats will be radical. The thing
for the Democrats to do is to let radi-
Gals and radical measures alone.

THOUSANDS OF children came to
school in England last week with fees
in their hands, although the free edu-
cation act was passed last Tuesday. 1t
is OF course expected that many more
children will have schooling in England
than ever before, but compulsion in
education is quite as necessary as its
freedom. The law has been scarcely
enforced at all under the old act. 1t is
impressive TO US of the daughterland
TO see the mother country only now
giving to the masses the tremendous
chances implied in free education. The
absence of kindergartens in London is
astonishing, too. As the twig has
scarcely been wisely bent at all in
England, it is not strange that the tree
is inclined to the brutality, ignorance
and corruption common, according to
their own authors, in the British
mgSses

THE TAIL TRYING TO WAC TIE DOG.
r Col. Polk has laid down the law TO
the Democrats. If they want the as
sistance of the Farmers Alliance, says
the president of that order, they must
accept the Ocala demands, and put
these demands in their platform. 9th
erwise the Alliance is dead agin'
EN-" A failure to come over to the
Allianceswill, Col. Polk says, lose the
Southern vote to the Democrats. This
means that in his opinion the Republi-
leans will win if the Democrats do not
desert their principles and take up
with the sub-treasury guerillas.
How much better off will the country
and the farmers of the Alliance be if
they contribute to Republican victory,
than if the Democrats win?
1t is not in any degree likely that
more than 100000 Democrats will
'desertithe principles under which they
have fought and won victories for three
quarters of century and adopt the
wild schemes OF the sub-treasury crowd
OF course Polk knows this full well.
His declaration, then, is an acknowl-
edgment of the charge so often made
that the sub-treasury party of the
Farmers Alliance is a Republican
scheme to divide the South and insure
Republican success in 1892. 1t stands
this way: Five million Democrats
must bow to hundred or two hundred
thousand sub-treasury fanatics, or they
will ''bust up" the solid South; the
Detnocrats won't do it; the solid South,
thsn, must be broken, which insures
Rpublican president.
FWhat issshe size of the reward prom
ssed To Polk and the other sub-treasury
leaders for their work in this under
t1l-ior.

The Southeastern Railroad

a meeting was quietly assembled at
Messrs. Damon Il Beatons Office on Mon
day last with view of taking some steps
to build the Southeastern railroad from
Corsicana via Fairfield on to Beaumont,
says the COrsicana Courier This is the
same road to which the citizens of Corsi-
cana last spring subscribed $4,000. If,
after long and careful investigation, these
New York gentlemen have concluded to
offer proposition which, If accepted. will
build this much-needed road, who is there
in Corsicana that will refuse to lend them
their hearty support and do all in their
power TO aid the projectl Don't treat this
matter lightly, but come up literally 10 its
support. The committee will be around to
see you in few days.

HARMONY in New York has not
reached such development that the
Cleveland lion and the Hill lamb are
occupying adjoining berths. At an
Oswego convention the Hill and Cleve-
land forces split up and each elected a
set of delegates to the state convention.
This betokens the state of feeling in
New York. Is it prudent for the Dem
ocrats of the nation to nominate a man
for president who has such determined
enemies in New York as Cleveland has,
who would not hesitate to throw that
state for the Republicans? The man
who can win is the man for the Demo-
Gratis to nominate, and that man must
be one who will get every vote in his
party.

whirr of whose spindles shall add to the

THE AMERICAN HOG.

Since the American hog got through
the Brandenburg gate-and be it noted
that he didn't have to crawl under it
his friends have been looking around
to see if there isn't some other gate that
can be opened for him. And they have
turned their eyes upon Austria. In
1880 the United States exported to Aus
tria 100, 995 pounds of bacon and hams,
10000 pounds OF sailed pork and ], $685.
OIL pounds of lard. Since that time our
exports OF these products to that couu-
try have virtually ceased because of a
governmental decree of prohibition
similar in spirit to the one that Ger
many has just rescinded. Like Ger
many, Austria has gone to making beet
sugar on large scale. In the last three
months OF the calendar year 1890 she
sent Us beet sugar amounting in value
to 81, 751, 429.
1t is thought that perhaps a hint to
Austria from our state department. that
unless our pork products were admit
ted the duty on beet sugar would be
imposed again, would have the same
effect that it did on Germany. 1t is
certain that the American hog is
needed in Austria, and that it would
be good for him to be there. If he can
get there through hints, or reciprocity,
or any other suitable arrangements lie
ought to. He is too useful an animal
to be restricted in his travels.
