FOR THE HONOR OF TEXAS.

While politicians are busy exciting
the alarms of foreign capitalists and
are proclaiming the dominant element
in Texas politics to be anarchial in
purpose, Governor Hogg writes thus
to an Eastern. brokerage firm, under
date of January 5, 1892:
In ny message to the last legislature, a
COM of which ! send you under separate
sever. urged that body to place the stamp
of honesty upon all classes of public secu-
rites. When write on the subject again
/ shall endeavor to elaborate the question
and present it with renewed force.
There is no disposition on the part Of
Texas or any subdivision of it, or any re-
spectacle portion of the people, to repudi-
ate or refuse to pay their legitimate debts.
Most of the trouble you complain of arises
out Of technicalities growing out of hasty,
unfortunate legislation. Time will correct
this. III this state private and public con-
donation of all acts Of Reputation is so
strong that he who pleads the statute of
limitations 20 an honest debt becomes an
Oufcast among his neighbors. They lose
respect for him and spurn him as repudi-
ator. In all my professional experience
have known of only two who did this act,
and they have suffered under the frowns of
all with whom they deal. l speak Of this
rs an illustration OF the utter contempt the
people OF this state have for any act SAVIOR
ing of dishonesty.
/ feel confident that in time every public
security, whether city, county or state,
issued for just consideration and not in
fraud, will be paid.

LONDON, Feb. 2.-Lord Salisbury spoke
ovation from the Devonshire Conservatives
He criticised the Liberal programme
as being obscure, indefinite, and full of
empty promises. The Radicals, he said,
were specially ready to assure voters they
could obtain measures at the expense of
their neighbors and the eighth command
ment. The evil arising from multiplied
Local bodies was overlooked by the advocates
of parish councils. He himself assisted in
work of creating county councils, and prob
ably would be responsible for the forma-
ton of district councils, but he could
not approve Of the council in
each parish. He commented on
Chamberlain's old-age insurance measure,
and said he was hopeful this scheme would
remedy the distress prevailing among
the working classes. It would
be effective, however, only when
carried out on sound business principles.
1t must ret impose serious burdens
on the rest OF the community
nor involve presents of public
money. The government would assist
the scheme If It was found practicable.
Another remedy was the creation of small
rural holdings which the government
trusted would confer great advantage by
relieving the sufferings of the poorer
class. The existence of small holdings
would provide the strongest bulwarks
against revolutionary changes. Ire
land, however, remained the burning
question of the hour, in which would rest
the Issue not only Of the next election, but
perhaps others, and he appealed to the
country to uphold the Union.

toward the settlement and development
of the state it has served more to show
the advantage Of one locality over
another and not the advantages OF the
state taken as whole oyer our sister
states.
We wantto have our resources set
by the side of those of the Northern,
the Southern. the Eastern and the
Western states.
TheWorld's fair offers this opportu-
nifty, and it remains with US to see that
it is done. As Texas is the largest state
in the Union, it follows that she should
have the most extensive exhibit at Chi
cago, and she will have it.
Thousands of dollars have already
been subscribed and the people are
thoroughly alive to their interest We
should show the people in the East that
they have a rival in Texas, and we should
let our sisters in the North and West
know that the little empire bordering
on the coast of the gulf of Mexico and
lying just west of the Mississippi river,
is a power within itself
The Worlds Columbian exposition
promises to be one of the grandest ex-

secretary of this great enterprise,

is doing all in his power to have
our products and resources thoroughly
represented. The ladies over the state,
under the efficient management of Mrs.
Ryan OF Austin, are accomplishing
much toward raising funds.
The school children have been given
an opportunity to contribute their little
mite, aud it is remarkable to observe
the interest taken by the little ones.

TWO PouIcTEs

The indianapolis News is an indie
pendent tariff reform paper. with a
strong mugwumpian flavor to its poll
tics. 1t is able, however, to appreciate
the tactical advantage of the tariff
policy adopted by the Democratic lead
ers in the house. 1t says:
The policy of bringing in separate bills
modifying the tariff on given articles has
been adopted by the ways and means CON-
mittee, instead of the policy of single
general tariff bill. The latter was the
Mills idea, the former the Springer idea
As a matter of policy we believe the
Springer idea the better. If the house
backs it up not only will tariff reform be
put forward us a living issue to be fought
for, but actually some legislation may be
achieved for it. 1t would put the Republi-
cans in very awkward position TO kill q
measure which proposed to reduce the
tariff on a certain article or put it on the
free list. The issue would not be compli-
Gated with change on many articles, giving
opponents as reason that to secure
particular good they must do a general evil
The separate bill procedure would make
each effort stand for itself. 1t would
compel an answer, for example, to the
question of free wool or taxed wool indie
pendently of general belief in protection.
So as 4 matter of policy this method is 4
wise one and it is to be hoped that Speaker
Crisp will lend himself to it, aud thus give
the Democratic party a chance to go before
the county on this issue in this way.

EAsTLAND, EAsTLASD COUNTY, TEX, Feb.
3.-During the last two or three months
there have been several notices relative to
the newly discovered silver mines in this
county, but your reporter has refrained
from makAg any note of the matter until
developments would justify US in carry
ing the news to Hannah, " and we are nQR
proud to say that the discovery of silveyf1n
paying quantities is no longer problemati-
land county is entitled to the appellation of
the ''Silver regions of Texas. !"
The hills throughout the county are full
of miners and prospectors sinking shafts
here and there, and tunnelling into this
mountain and that mountain. But not hav
ing had an opportunity to visit in person
any Of the mining regions except the Silver
Pass mines situated at Olden, five miles
east from Ea5tland City, we will only speak
of these mines in this communication. The
Silver Pass mining company is q regularly
incorporated institution, with w. A Grice,
president; w. J. Godsey, viee-president
and general manager; George Moss, treas
company can command near $1,000 600 If
necessary. They are sparing neither time
nor money in the prosecution OF their work
in development of the rich ores of the Silver
Pass. They have had number of assays
made of the ore by one of the best asayists
III Gu6 OultCQ OldlCS, Ids run lEOlll
$50 to 81. 35 per ton. They have smelter
on the ground (the first one that your re-
porter ever saw that cost $4,000, and has
a capacity of 100 tons of rock per day. They
have as many hands as can possibly work
on the ground preparing place TO set the
plant, and will have the machinery running
in full blast in few days. Just above the
smelter on beautiful plat they have an
other large body Of hands, who are making
a tank that will cover twenty acres OF land
This company now have three mines open
and they have so arranged the smelter that
they will have gentle incline from escn
tunnel TO the plant which viii enable them
to deliver the ore at the plant with but
little expense.
In the near future will give you further
details. The Silver Pass mining company
are not seeking cheap notoriety. They
have the money, brains, experience, pluck
and energy to take care of themselves and
wiz look after their own interest.

NOT THE MAN.
An old Hero worshippor Comes Down
and Tells tho Others Some
PLAN Truths
New York Herald.1

New York Herald.l
What are the well known facts about Mr..
Cleveland He carried his own state, New
York, and the election in 1884 by a scratch.
Hesat four years in the presidency, honest,
incorruptible, but not sagacious or with
statesmanlike foresight, narrow in his
views and sympathies, prejudiced and al
lowing his prejudices to influence him. He
raised discussions in his party instead of
allaying them. He alienated from himself
the most influential and sagacious of his
party's leaders,. He was renominated on a
platform dictated by himself and was
beaten, losing his own state by consider
able majority.
We mean to do the fullest justice to Mr..
Cleveland's good qualities. The real ques-
tion is not whether he is a good man, nor
even whether, as his fool friends assert, he
is Drawer or more honest or more sin
cere or more dutiful man than all the rest
of us He may be the best man in the
world, and yet it might not be prudent or
proper for the Democratic party or for any
party to renominate him. The real ques-
ton is whether he can carry his party to
victory, and whether he can be depended
on to so manage its affairs as 10 then keep
it in power.
If we thought he could do that we should
favor his denomination. It is because we
do not believe he could or would do it that
we have been frank enough to advise the
party to discuss other candidates.

FOR PRESIDENT.

For president-the honest, capable
Democrat who can win.
Democratic policies cannot be en-
forced save and except through a
Democratic presidency, Democratic
senate and Democratic lower house.
Sentiment and personal preference
should be subordinated to the supreme
necessity for success. The Democrat
who would rule or ruin is unfit for
leadership.
National politics affects the business
welfare of every citizen and makes
financial burdens heavy or light. Re
publican policies have made the rich
ieher and the poor poorer; Demo-
cratic policies would reverse this.
Democracy stands for the masses and
Republicanism for the classes. Shall
Democracy lose, that some Democrats
may crafty their ambition for display;
or, shall Democracy win, that the con-
dition of the people may be anchor
ated? Shall the public good be sub
ordinated to individual ambitions or,
shall individual ambitions be subordi-
mated to the public good?
Democrats owe more to the party
and to the people than they do to indi-
vidual Democrats. Party success is
more to the people than can be the ex-
altation of any man.

In 412I% grains of standard silver, $40 fine,
35.S grains of standard gold, 9-10 fine.
Now, after these same creditors have, by
legislation, appreciated the value of gold
over 25 per cent, they not only demand and
insist, but even threaten if they are not
paid in this appreciated gold they will make
Rome howl. Why, never in the world will
the people, after they understand this,
stand such barefaced stealing any longer.
Gust 'one campaign of education on this
question will settle it, and we should have
it this year.
.'If the Democratic party in their national
platform will meet this issue openly and
sauarely, and afterwards push it to its
fullest extent it cannot be beaten"
IF this took place might not president
be elected who would veto such bill just
as Mr. Harrison will do now2'
sNo; for if, after thorough discussion,
the country declared the question in the
affirmative, no Democratic president would
think of vetoing it unless it would be Mr.
Cleveland, and 1 doubt whether he would
under such circumstances.
tsDo YOU believe in dropping the tariff
question:
''Good heavens, no. but if you drop the
silver question you only weaken the other,
because while the people are taxed TO death

are, by the steady appreciation of gold, con-
tinually be compelled to give up more labor,

money with which to discharge these taxes.

L1GHTEN TIE nURpEN.

That the times are hard and money
difficult to get hold of; that there are
many unemployed who have no income;
that the next few months will bring
work to thousands and make money
easier to obtain-these truths are I'M
deniable, and they may be taken for the
major premise Of the proposition about
to be submitted by the GAZETTE.
That proposition is, that the city
council extend the time Tor the pay
ment of city taxes until the first of
July.
The recent sale of funding bonds has
put money in the treasury sufficient to
meet the most pressing demands up to
that time. Why should the people be
oppressed to pay taxes into the treas
ury and let the money lie in bank
for months without being needed? It
will be doing its proper service in cir
culation, but being taken from the tax
payers and put in the treasury it will
be there until called for, and contract
the local circulation to that extent.
A great many poor people in Fort
Worth own their homes, on which they
must pay taxes. They are out of work,
and cannot raise the money to satisfy
the collector. The penalty of delin-
quency may be imposed, and their,
homes may be sold for taxes, costing
them several times the amount of the
taxes to redeem. them. With the be-
ginning of work on the waterworks,
the city hall, the ward school buildings,
and other enterprises that are on hand,
these men will get work and will soon
be able to pay their taxes and escape
penalty.
Not alone justice and mercy call for
staying the hand of the tax collector,
but the public welfare also. The taxes
are heavy and burdensome. They will
be paid when those who owei them can
get the means to pay. But to force
their collection now is an oppression OF
men who are already oppressed by
poverty.
Gentlemen of the council, tighten
this burden by giving the people more
time to pay their taxes.
