a few years, what pitiful spectacle of po-
| litlcal deSuetude George Clarh's heart of
oak plank would present.
RUNNING OVER WITH AMBITION.
Fisher County Call
Charlie Simpson Of the Spokesman is a
| curious anomaly as a politician. He wants
to be an Alliance man, favors the sub-treas
| ury theory, opposes an extra session OF the
| legislature. and also opposes the alien land
| law idea. and wants to run for the legiS-
| lature on winning ticket.
HOW CHIN MUSIC TIRES THEM.
| Rockdale Messenger.
| A good many of the papers have much to
| say about the hard work that is being done
| by the sub-treasury Alliance leaders. They
| are working hard, but are not turning out
| much cotton or corn.

great deal of attention just now, not only in
Texas but all over the United States, and

and that being the main feature Of all the
measures that can possibly come before the
next congress. and tariff reform being the
only hope of the party for 1892, where can
the party find a man better equipped for
the great struggle than Roger q. Mills?

CHARLES WARNED TO BEWARE.
Greenville Herald
Charley Culberson has risen rapidly in
the estimation of the people of Texas. and

TEN PER CENT MONEY UNPROFITABLE.
san Angelo Standard.
The cashier of the Citizens national bank |
At Colorado City, Tex, publishes a notice to |
the effect that ut 4 meeting of the share |
holders of the bank they resolved to go into |
voluntary liquidation. The Clipper, speak |
ing of the action of the stockholders, says |
that this course was adopted on account of |
the usury law recently enacted by the legiS- |
lature ana made part of the constitution by |
vote of the people at the August election. /!
1t may be as the Clipper says, that the |
stockholders of the bank referred to are |
wealthy men of good business tact, and can |
put out their money at better interest as
individuals than they can in the form of
banking association. Observation teaches
that such is the case. Individuals can loan
mOnev at better interest. than bank, be-
cause the expense of running the bank does
not have to be paid out of the interest on
money loaned. The prejudice against banks
in some quarters is senseless.
But 1T WAS GOOD.
Cleburle Chronicle.
In last weeks issue of the Chronicle an
editorial paragraph appeared in its columns
which should have been cred lied to the
Fort Worth GAZETTE, but by an oversight
the credit was omitted. The Chronicle de-
sires further to explain that it would not
have clipped the paragraph had it not
thought it was good.
POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE CALAMITIEs.
Arkansas Pass Herald.
Croakers and boomers represent the two
extremes in the growth of a country. The
one discounts the advantages that will ac-
crue, and the other discounts the calamities
that might happen.
THE BUsHwHACKERs GIVE NO CREDIT.
Beeville Bee.
Governor Hogg says the alien land law
needs revision, and so does every other SEN
sible man. However, the governor gets no
credit for this sensible opinion from the
papers who have been bushwhacking his
