FIRE TIE CHINESE.

The people Of this city should
take some steps to prevent the Chi
nese from getting a foothold here.
There is no need to argue the Chi
nese question. They are a curse to
any community. Again, nothing
would SO raise the estimation of
Bonner's Ferry in the eyes Of the
world as the fact that she is an
anti-Chinese town.
The time to root out the Chinese
evil is now. They have no foot
hold here yet worth speaking Of,
and it would be an easy matter to
rid the town Of them entirely.
Once out there would be no trouble
in keeping them out.
We have a good many politicians
up in this part Of the Panhandle.
THE HERALD has a suggestion to
make 70 them. Ii they want to
prove themselves Of some account
to the public, and at the same time
disabuse the public Of the idea
that they are not merely Office
seekers or place seekers, let them
tackle the Chinese question as it
confronts US here at Bonners
Ferry. The man who can step to
the front and solve the question of
how to get rid Of the Chinese in a
satisfactory manner will be a pub
lie benefactor and can get any
Office he wants.

THE GOVERNORS EXAMPLE.

The unreasonable and INSCRIPTIONS
followers of demagogue candidate
for governor want but an invitation
from their leader to resort to all the
methods of unfair and dishonorable
tactics in order to win their battle.
Their leader, James 3. Hogg, while
speaking at Brentwood few days
since, called attention to the circular
that had been issued in November,
1891, by @. o. Wheeler of the Gulf,
Colorado and Santa Fe railway, call
ing attention to the destructive effects
of the commission upon the earnings
of the road and urging the employees
to vote against candidates who were
arrayed against railroads. There is
nothing unreasonable or unnatural
about this. Under the law of self
protection, it is but reasonable and
natural that the railroad companies
should use their efforts against an
organized warfare upon their inter-
ests, but Governor Hogg attempte d to
leave the impression upon his audi
ence that this was something recent,
and intended for the present cam
palgn. Now at Cleburne some of his
followers who evidently believed that
their leader sanctions fraud and mis-

Governor Hogg," [says the Hous-

no accommodation should be provid-

Nevertheless the governor was anx.

prepared should be given to the pub

When the campaign reaches such a
point that candidate for governor Of
the state wishes to suppress his public
utterances, except such as he chooses
to prepare for the papers himself, it
locks like it was about time to go back

The announcement by gentleman
IN this city who is surely advised as
to the program Of the administration
that all counties having large towns
OF cities would be contested shows a
determination to draw Mason and
Dixon line around the corporate limits
of every incorporated town that does
not bend the knee to the Hogg dy.
nasty Indeed that fact was estab-
hshed before it was virtually admitted
by such announcement by the bolt in
Harris county and more particularly
by the fact that Harris was placed in
the contested column before the con-
vention was held and before any

SERFDOM IN TEXAS.

II any Que uUuOtS tudI buo beuuSh-
cy of public affairs In Texas is towrrd
Russian serfdom, let him read re-
cent article in one of the Ell Paso
papers. The editor Of that paper, the
name of which is not now recalled,
warns the citizens of FL Paso county
not to oppose Governor Hogg, not
withstauding the sentiment of the
county is opposed to his administra-
ton. The reason he assigns for this
is. that Judge Clark stands no chance
for nomination, and the feeble effort
of a few electoral votes from Ell Paso
in favor of Judge Clark would only
serve to antagonize the Gar of Texas,
and he mig do some great harm to
the county. If it were not known that
this article were written in all seri-
BUSINESS, it would be amusing, but it
only shows the extent to which mems
fears cen be carried, when powerful,
aggressive and arrogant chief execu
tive struts before the people as a die
tator, whose frown is threat and
whose smile simply covers some Turk
ing intention to perpetuate his imper-
ialistic rule. No, the Clark men in
FL Paso county had better recant their
allegiance to Jude Clrrs, else Gov
ernor Hogg will stop the 7. & P. r.
r. from running in there. If any
bridges or court houses are to be
built, he will issue manifesto vetoing
the right of citizens to spend the
money OF the county for such foolish
purposes. He may even deny to the
Representatives from that county
seat in the house of representatives
Indeed this newspaper is correct. The
czar Of Texas will send the culprits of
that benighted land into some Sibe-
ria of his own choosing. This is not
at all strange. This same governor
promised to send railroad magnetes to
the penitentiary, He threatened the
Texas Legislature with his veto, il they
failed to make the commission sp-
pointive, thereby giving him exclu-
sive right of selecting the three rail-
road commissioners. This was done in
CONFIRMATION of the wishes of large
majority of the people of Texas. He
threatened at one time to crush with
his iron heel the industry carried on
by travelling salesmen, who we're offer
ing their wares in Texas markets. He
promised to see that the Sunday law
and all other laws in the state were
faithfully executed. On one occasion
while he was attorney general, some
wicked train robbers who were un-
mindful of their fealty to their great
governor, stopped train and robbed
it at McNiel, some eight or ten miles
from Austin. Attorney General
Hogg heard of the robbery and at
once mounted Mustang pony and
repaired in great haste to the scene
of the robbery. His object in doing
so was to show his zeal in seeing the
law executed. Just such perform
ances as this, and many Others which
it would be cruel to relate. are suffi.
cient to cause one man at least in Ell
Paso county to believe that sooner or
later this country will be reduced to
Russian serfdom.

men feel IN New York city, as CON-

by residents of western cities and

1t was his theory that very large

acquired their fortunes elsewhere and
who came to New York to merely en-
joy existence. Many Of them left be-
hind them interests which required
more or less care and watchfulness,

each of them was really in the western

The Buffers Lsteat,

I see that my friend Mr.. Ward Nc
Allister, the self-appointed arbiter Of
society" in this city has made another
division of his famous Four Hundred,
and now has an exalted inner circle
composed Of one hundred and fifty rich
people whose names he furnishes to his
newspaper, and who are said to be
really the creme de creme of our New
York social life. OF course Mr.. Nc
Allister is wise enough to pick out very
rich people who are anxious to exploit
themselves in the social world and are
able to do SO. That is precisely his idea
of what constitutes a claim upon So
ciety. Brains, merit, achievement, in
dustry and all that sink into insignifi-
canoe when people are not able to en-
terrain and contribute to the support
of Butler McAllister.
Since the Butler began writing and
talking for print the people whom he
serves as general butler and lacquey are
growing, think, little tired Of him.
His caddishness and general ignorance
of what is really refined and elevating
in life are rapidly bringing him into
well-merited contempt. And now that
he has earned the hostility of two
hundred and fifty members of the orig
inal Four Hundred, who have been ex-
cluded from his preferred list, it is easy
to predict his early downfall. This.
taken in connection with the statement
recently made by somebody, that his
table manners are not first class, and
that he has been actually seen upon the
street to blow his nose with his fingers,
leads me to believe that we shall soon
see an end of his presumption as a So
cial leader and his preposterous claim
as man of fashion. In fact, he is al
ready regarded here as a cross between
silly clown and the late ridiculous
Count Joaunes.

Men who Are Not in Society.

In one of his outpourings the other
day Ward McAllister told his reportorial
friend that Joe Choate, the lawyer, for
whose brilliant genius he actually con-
:fessed a regard, was mot in society"
for the reason that he cared nothing for
it. This remark is significant. There
are no Joe Choates in the so-called
social set. The really brilliant men
az d women of New York are not there,
for the reason that they "care nothing
for it." Depew has been read out of
the elmer circle"-or, to state the bald,
brutal fact, he was barred out of it be-
fore he got in-and if he did not SUBJ
scribe literally to the New Years balls
and other pass-the-hat functions he
could not have his name printed in the
newspaper list of even the common,
frayed out Four Hundred. But Mr..
Depew looks upon society as quite
harmless while aFording some amuse-
ment. Being rich and generous. he
will continue to pay his assessments
and caper around on the outskirts SIM
ply for the fun he gets out of it.
The late Henry w. Grady, the south
ern orator and editor, was a man for
whom society always had its net out,
but never succeeded in wholly captur-
ing. When he was young he was fond
Of social gatherings, but got over it even
before he reached middle age. It is
told of Grady that when he was drawn
into society with a hawser he never got
inside the parlor door. His favorite
position was to sit outside leaning
against the wall, his hat on the
back of his head and q toothpick
between his teeth. Here he would
entertain dozen people at once, and
notwithstanding his toothpick and the
fact that he would not trust his hat to
the hatrack, was the lion OF the occa-
sion. Men like Grady and Choate, and
the older fellows, like Daniel Dougher-
ty and Col. Ingersoll, could do a great
deal for society; but they won't. All they
ask Of it is to be let alone.
