No farms have succeeded so well
as small farms. More money per acre
has been taken from them, and each
dollar represents greater profits.
This state and county will never at
tain high degree of agricultural
prosperity until The small farm idea
permeates the minds of our land own
ers and farmers. Double the size of
your farms, not by adding more acres,
but by making each acre doubly pro-
ductive. Sell off half your land #
necessary and put it on top the re-
manning half. You will then make
more profit and do it with less out
lay. You viii i've more comfortably
and besides have less taxes to pay.

bravery I'm . Crow.

Some years ago at hawking party
on Salisbury Plain, falcon was flown
at e carrion crow, which it struck after
long fight, and the two birds came
down like a parachute to the ground.
The party galloped mp and were about
20 dismount to take up the falcon, when
the mate of the crow suddenly de-
scended from great height with such
velocity that the wings made whizzing
sound like that of a falling stone and
dashed onto the falcon. The force Of
the blow struck the hawk from its
quarry. which was uninjured by the
grapple in the air, and both crows few
off unhurt into copse near. In this
case the crow clearly understood the
cause of the danger and the possibility
Of n rescue when the falcon was on the
ground and least able to act on the Of
fensive.
But the courage and devotion which
prompted 1t to overcome the natural
dread which the falcon inspires, and the
added terror of party of mounted men
in hot pursuit, place the crows claim to
admiration on very high level.-Lon-
don Spectator.

How Two Painters Became Acquainted.
When in HARLEM; Vandyke called
upon Frank Halls, and without making
himself known said that he was anxious
TO have his portrait painted, but as he
was in great hurry he could spare but
two hours, at the end of which the por-
trait must be done. Halls went to work
and finished 1t, and Vandyke was much
pleased. But portrait painting seemed
very little thing, said Vandyke, and
he asked Halls to change places with
him. Halls did so, and as Vandyke fin
ished his work Halls Rugged him enthu-

"MY PLATFORM.n

The election of Jim Hogg means
that the people of Texas are too sen
sible to be swayed by misrepresenta,
ton and fraud; it means the continual
ton of government economically
administered in obedience to the
mandates of the constitution; it means
the enforcement of the laws Impair
TALLY to all; that Texas stands fourth
as the empire state of Democracy; the
empire state in the enforcement of the
laws and in all other things recon-
mended by my platform .-Hogg's re-
ception speech.
"My platform. Indeed, it was your
platform, but you got part of it from
under Nugent's pillow while he slept.
1t was hoped that Governor Hogg
would kick this hybrid platform out
of the back doors of the capitol and
plant himself firmly and solidly upon
the national Democratic platform, but
he is making his own bed, let him lie
upon it. Yes. it was my platform,
it was certainly not Democratic plat
form.
The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1892-11-17
STAND FIRM.

Gentlemen of the genuine Demo-
cratic party of Texas, do not be dis.
heartened. Blood will tell, principles
will finally triumph. Although we
were beaten in this state we have won
a great national victory. Remember
the Democratic party sacrificed sue
cess four years ago by their devotion
to principles, but in the end principles
have won. The life of any lit''o faction
planting itself on platfolu. opposed
to honest money and the platform
of the national Democracy can have
but short life.
They certainly cannot have the au.
daclty just now to ask to be recog-
nized by the national Democracy, but
it will not be long before they will be
denouncing the men who misled and
begging to be taken back into the
party.
Stand firm, gentlemen; maintain the
cause of Democracy in Texas,
and factions opposing Demo
cratic principles will soon
lose all vitality. Just as
if the Democratic party will
soon lose its vitality and as soon as
these men who have deserted the
national Democratic party in
the face Of the enemy, find they
all can't get an Office under the idol
they worship they will be begging for
the crumbs that fall from the bount-
full table of the national Democracy.
There are many good Democrats
among them who have been deceived
and as soon as they find out they are
out of the line of the great and tri-
umphant national Democracy, they
will come back and fall into line,

,LET US ANEW. our JOURIEl
PURSUE."

Every storm has its rainbow G
promise and hope spanning the hori
ION. 1t is not in the power o
any man, no matter what Pc
sition he may occupy, to impede tn
prosperity of any state since the grea
revolution in politics in the election
Mr.. Cleveland president of the United
States.
The best sagacity and foresight can
not draw picture of the genera
prosperity that awaits this coun
try under the administration o
the principles held by the Democratic
party; the painter could not colol
it too brightly or finish it in all its de-
tails too admirably.
The fact of the election of Mr.
Cleveland and by such an overwhelm'
ing majority has restored the con-
fidence of the financial element, not
only of this country but abroad in the
safety and stability of enterprise with
in our borders.
The banks heretofore fearing dis
aster from the reckless course of
the Republican party have kept
capital locked in their vaults.
The time lock on the
fourth of March will fly open of its
own accord and these millions rein
forced by other capital from abroad
will flow into and over the country
seeking investment in every market
where moderate interest and sta.
BILE investment can be found.
Texas offers such advantages of in
vestment that will be availed of by
shrewd business men and the state
will stretch forth her arms as a
mighty giant, and gathering in the
machinery to start the wheels of en-
terprise, she will move on to the
most astonishing prosperity and
greatness in the commercial, manu-
featuring and agricultural depart
ments of industry.
Nothing in the world can prevent
this but prohibitory and suicidal
laws, and the people of Texas
have too much sense and
too high regard for their own
interest to blight her prospects by
any more restrictive or illegal legisla-
ton.
Let us now lay aside politics, bum
die it up carefully and lay it away
upon shelf to be taken down at the
proper time, but now let Us lay aside
that weighs us down,
strip for the race in all that is to the
non-materially under the brightest
skies that ever gladdened
The heart of man by their sunshine.

RAIDED BY TRAMPS.

HAZLEToN, Pa, Nov. ia gang
of trampo swooped down upon White
Haven yesterday morning and robbed
a number of houses and for time had

troll Two weeks ago six of tn 1t frater-
nifty came to White Haven and quar-
tered themselves in the Lehigh Valley
SAINT house. Nightly depredations
were committed in the neighborhood.
Last Monday six others arrived in

saEd house. Last night concerted
raid was made by the visitors and they
took the town by storm. Six houses
We're entered simultaneously. In
some cases revolvers were used to per-
suade those in the houses to give up
their valuables. In short time the
village was aroused. The robbers,
however, were well armed and easily
kept the crowd at bay. They;succeed-

escaped in the Businesses. An indigna-
ton meeting was held by citizens and
an armed posse is now in pursuit of the
robbers.

ABOUT CHOLERA GERMS,
PROF. KOCH SAYS AMERICANS ARE IN
NO DANGER.
Shipment Of New Goods Via Hamburg to the
Worlds Fair Cannot Bring Cholera
Germs-Exhibits are Thor
oughly Disinfected.

BERLIN, Nov. l3.-The sending Of
German exhibits to the Worlds Fair
at Chicago by way of Hamburg has
caused no little uneasiness among
some persons in Chicago. 1t is feared
that in this manner cholera germs
may reach the Garden City. In view
of the gravity of the situation an as
ISOLATED press correspondent thought
it wise to ascertain the extent to which
fears were justified. Privy Councillor
Werthetheim, imperial commissioner
to the Worlds Fair, told the asso-
ciated press correspondent that it was
true most of the German exhibits were
sent by way of Hamburg. He said it
was TIE most direct and convenient
way and there was no danger what
ever. Professor Koch at first declined
to talk, as he is opposed on principle
to newspaper interviews. He refer
red the reporter to the publications of
the imperial health office, of which he
is a member, but finally in view of
the interests involved he consented to
be interviewed. 1T is out of the
question. said he. that goods or
merchandise passing through Ham
burg should carry cholera germs. IY
has never been known that new goods
carried such germs. Cholera may be
spread by soiled clothing or rags, but
never by goods packed in wooden
Gases, by iron or stone.
We knew these facts before, aud the
recent epidemic has simply confirmed
our opinion that only through con-
tact with infected persons or their
clothes could cholera be spread. Con-
sui Johnson told the Associated Press
correspondent that not single pack
age was allowed to leave Hamburg for
America without thorough disinfec-
ton.

Stewart this morning in the district
court by an order Diminishing the case,
denying the, injunction and refusing
to appoint receiver, The order OF
dismissal assigns as reason for re-
fusing the application that the evi.
dence does not warrant the issuance of
a restraining order and that no good
cause is shown for che appointment OF
receiver, as the business, from the
evidence before the court, appears to
be properly conducted.

QUIZ DIPLOMATIC SERVICE
The New York Herald Advocates the Abo.
lition Of the Useless Luxury.

New YORK, Nov. 13.-The Herald
will tomorrow advocate the abolition
of our foreign ministry. In the course
of its article the paper says: Some
day a great political party will take
up the question seriously and make
itsels famous by wiping out our use
less and cumbersome diplomatic serv-
ice from the face of the earth. 1t was
prophetic James Il. Blaine who ut
tered this prediction some years ago
to then Congressman McAdoo of New
Jersey. Nearly 100000 is spent in
empty trappings of useless Office.
More than a third of a million
dollars each year expended by the
United States that its black cloth men
may dangle at the tail of the diplo-
matte kite. The question of abolish.
ing the diplomatic service and substi-
tuling perfected consular service in.
its place has long been favorably con-
sidered in Democracy-loving minds,
but it was not alone Democratic
minds which favored the step. Lumi-
nous minds in the Republican ranks
echoed the wish.

LET Us BE PRUDENT.

| The people OF Texas need not De the
least alarmed that the building of rail-
roads is not at once resumed. The rail-
road companies have simply been gov
erned for time by a waiting policy"
For the past two years the railroad
companies have postponed con-
templated extensions of important
and necessary lines because the steel
rail pool has been holding the price of
steel rails at $50 per ton under the
protecting wing of the Mckinley tariff
when the actual value is So or S. less
on the ton; and not because the COM
panies have lost confidence in railroad
investments in Texas.
Leading Democratic papers are urg-
ing an extra session of congress
to be called soon after the 4th of
March, when the senate is reassem-
bled to ratify Mr.. Cleveland's cabinet
nominations. They argue that as SO
many things beneficial to the country
are waiting to see the extent of tariff
reduction, that it is due the people
that congress ought to Immediately
assemble, repeal the Mckinley bill
and give assurance to the country
that investments are safe and can be
made under changed condition Of
affairs promising permanency and
profit.
That may work well but there is
some danger in hurry. If the Demo-
cratic par ty desires to re-
tain the confidence of the
people it's members in congress
will have to go cautiously slow; every
step to be duly considered and de-
termined upon after mature consid-
Grafton. The party has advantages
that il properly used will be of the
greatest benefit to the country, but
one misstep may scrifice these ad-
vantages and bring disaster instead
of the legitimate results of wise and
prudent action.
For instance, an immediate change
in the revenue system Withdrawing
at once all the benefits or rather adj
vantages of protection to certain in
dustries would temporarily embarrass
the country so seriously that it might
require years to recover.
On tho other hand by a repeal
at the regular session of the next
congress of the Mckinley tariff sys'
tenn and gradual reduction of the
tariff in all it's branches no severe
wrench would be felt, and the ad-
vantages would be recognized and
the Republicans themselves would be
convinced of Democratic wisdom.
But to avoid all danger it is best to
pluck the nettle from it and then
handle it without fear of injury.
We feel certain that we have success
in our grasp; let us not endanger it by
a too hasty and inconsiderate action.
Yet because of the reaction in the
peoples favor confidence is at one re-
stored and the railroads will be the
first to show it. Mark the prediction.

INAUGURATION OF CLEVELAND

INAUGURATION OF CLEVELAND.
The Inauguration of the twenty
fourth president of the United States
on the 4th of March 1893 will be one of
the marked epochs in the history OF
this country and of nations.
1t will mean return to the SIM
plicity and purity of Republican
government such as the fathers con-
templated and such as existed under
jefferson and Jackson. 1t will turn
from plutocracy, Capitalization, and
rich mans government to a
government of the people, by
the people, and for the people,
1t will be republican government
in fact as we'll as in name.
For twepty.eight years it has not
been republican government, but
one of manufacturing barons, of the
barons, by the barons and for the
barons. 1t was administered for them
and them alone, and they have be-
come millionaires some thirty, some
sixty and some an hundred fold while
the poor heve been ground into the
earth by their upidity and AFRO
gance. The event will be quite as
memorable as the Declaration OF
Independence on July 4, 1776.

FAREWELL, farewell, and long
farewell to Mr.. Blaine's reciprocity"
measures. Mr.. Cleveland does not
believe that the department of state
has any right to interfere with or
shape the tariff question, which be-
longs alone to the congress of the
United States. Such a proposition
The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1892-11-17

THE policy of fusion inaugurated in
the West by the New York World
was wise political movement. AS
it turned out Mr.. Cleveland did not
need it, but il it had been a close race
it might have thrown the election
into the house of representatives and
saved Cleveland. The New York
World did splendid work in thi;
campaign, and is worthy of all honor
and patronage.
