HoGG mustered sixty-five mem bers
of the legislature to sign his mani
festo to the state, ostensibly in behalf

interest as candidate for reelection.
Does this number measure the follow
Ing that he is able to dragon Into his

weakness that it was not wise in the
governor to make. If he cannot com.
mand the support of one-half of the
legislature for the defence of the COM
mission created by themselves, how
many is he likely to secure on purely
personal grounds?

THE consolidation of the postoffices
at Texarkana has led to q bitter RI
valry between the republicans of
northern Texas and southern Ar
kansas as to which section shall
supply the postmaster. There are at
present two postoffices in the border
town, with a postmaster In each.
Under the new regulations one OF
these postoffices will be discontinued,
and as necessity there will be but
one postmaster where there is now
two. Which of these shall be re-
tanned is the bone of contention, and
the President is being importuned
by each faction to retain Its post.
master. Who will come out best In
the fight, the Texas crowd or the Ar.
kansas crowd, will only be known
when the appoin tment is made and
the new postmaster confirmed.

CONGRESSMAN DINeLEY showed up
the fraudulent democratic cry about
"shoddy" and trays from beggars'
backs" in good shape. After all their
bowling about American manutac-
turers being compelled to use substi-
tutes for wool, it appears that the
Springer bill puts on the free list the
disease-laden rags from foreign coun.
tries. The tatters that fall from the
backs of beggars in Europe and are
gathered by rag pickers, are 20 be inn
ported into this country free to com.
pete against and be substituted for
American wool. And yet the free
wool democrats who propose this have
the audscity to charge the republi.
cans with permitting the importation
of shoddy, which is simply rag wool
cleaned and disinfected. In the Me.
Kiuley tariff the disease-laden rags
which the democrats want to put on
the free list are barred out altogethe r
by prohibitOry duties.
