The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1892-01-07

THE government has been looking
after its civil war pensions with such
enthusiasm that it may he pardoned
for occasionally overlooking u Next
can war veteran who is comparatively
riendless, and who would probably
not need his pension long if he had it.
One of those old heroes, who had been
"a faithful soldier in his youth, has
been imploring the government for
his pension for years. He was old,
and feeble, and destitute. He needed
the money sorely. The other day
some one came running with the joy
full news. The old man was to get his
pension. But the shock was too sud
den. He fell to the ground, and when
they went to lift him he had passed
over into country that may, per-
haps, atone for the injustice, the in
gratitude Of this.

ISLANDERS on TEXAS.

The Kansas City Star makes this
comment on new play, and on the
behavior of the people who go to
see it:
To witness a representation of "a
Texas Steern brings to the average
American citizen considerable food for
reflection OF course we are all proud
of our country; we reverence the con-
stitution; we have the star spangled
banner suspended at the head Of our
bed; yet here we sit and laugh and
applaud all the evening while a sup
posed representative Of the sovereign
state Of Texas is held up rs a barbar-
Gus old 'cDw puucher," his wife rs
an ignorant female snob; his constilu-
ents as bowling drunkards; his private
secretary as "a fraud, aud his principal
adviser, familiar and directora shame
less lobbyist and noisy thief. Every
"pont" is perceived by the intelli-
gent American audience. Every allu-
sion to the capital of this country as
den of gamblers and drunkard5 and
liars and robbers is received with
"shouts of laughter" and cloud and
long continued applause" The au-
dience laughs with the female lobby
list when she "worksn the "second
Daniel Webster" and smiles approval
when the statesman fills the "invest-
eating committee with rum and rail-
road stock and sends them about their
business. We are unquestiOnably a
great people, but aren't we showing a
little too much indulgence to "smart-
ness" at the expense of honesty, de-
cency and patriotism?
OF course we are all patriotic, anG
we love our country, and we grow re-
sentful in moment when foreigner
makes an unkind criticism on our
institution, but when we want to
laugh at or burlesque any section of
the country ourselves, that Is quite
different thing. There could scarcely
be more ridiculous travesty upon
Texas character than "Mr. Potter of
Texas" yet the whole south, Texas
included, went gleefully down into its
pockets and paid its so cents a piece
for the privilege of reahing MIR. Gun
ter's silly and sensational fanfaronade.
AS for "The Texas Steer" it is proba-
bly, no letter and no worse than its
class. Texas makes no effort to refute
ISLANDERS that come in that guise,
knowing that sensibl" people do not
believe them, and not caring greatly
for the opinion of the rest of the world
who wish to believe them anyhow.

THE first OF the year is the accus-
toned time for retrospect and resolve.
This is all very well, it shows a mel
low conscience and all that, the
only thing, however, is TO make the
resolve stick, to let prompt and con
tinued action follow on good purpose,
AS has been shown, Austin Las much
to be grateful for in the year just
closed; her retrospect must he COM
forting, but we are now in the first
days of this new years future, and we
cannot emphasize the fact better than
by Immediately taking hold of our
selves and bending every energy
without cessation TO the accomplish
ment of all plans on foot and making
and perfecting others in line with the
purpose lately entered upon.

THE difIic ilty of obtaining news
from the portion of the country in
which the CARA revolution Is now be-
ing celebrated explains the meager
and conflicting reports which are
daily coming in; but from latest indi-
cations it would seem that the United
States troops who have gone out to
fight this picturesque barbarian are
liable to acquire good deal of hard
experience.

Will Get a New Trial.

LEAvENwORTH, Kan. Jan. A.
Charles A. Benson, the convicted
butcher of Mrs. Theresa Mettman,
will not he hanged on February 5th,
the day fixed by the president when
he granted a respite last October. 1t
now seems probable that the judy
mert of the United States district
court will be set aside and the case
remanded for n new trial. Judge
Webb. counsel for the defense, re-
ceivpd writ of error from the SUI
preme court and filed it i'm the office
of the United States court. The al.
lowance of the writ brings the case
before the supreme court and fur
Their stay of execution will he ordered.

are that Benson will get new trial
and the case he much more vigorously
fought than before.

THE Louisville Courier-J Journal says:
"Every official should be fully paid
for all the work he does, hut he most
ill-poid official will never betray the
public confidence if he was born
honest. If Secretary Soper, of Mich
igan, has done wrong, it was not ell
tirely because of his low salary
Which is very true. Being born
honest and being trained to honesty
are great advantages, but any city is
subjecting a mans honesty to a fear,
full strain when it pays him $500 q
year, and expects him to keep up $1,000
worth of appearances.

BRUTES IN HUMAN FORM.
sbvenYOung Toughs of New York Ravish
v Defenseless Woman.

Detenseless Woman.
J., NV YORK, Jan. 3.-Seldom within
the annals of the New York police
cOurI has there been such revolving
case heard as in Yorkville court to-
day. William Carroll, 81 years old,
who lives with his newly welded
wife, Mary, aged 10, at Cos West
Fitty-fourth street, told the court that
they were awakened at 3 o'clock this
morning by some one breaking into
their apartments. In an instant
seven young toughs rushed into the
bedroom, pulled him off the bed and
threatened him with death if he made
any cutlery. He broke away from
them, however, ran out to the street
in his night dress and shouted Tor
help. Hearing screams from his
wiie's room he rushed back TO her
assistance, only to find her struggling
in the arms OF one OF the toughs. Be-
fore he could reach her side, however,
he was seized by several others, who's
ned him and compelled him to wit
m ,sNa sight that cannot be described
ilIw6rds, as one after another of the
VII ing scOundrels ravished her. The
p SwOman fought desperately, but
b., TsSailants beat helinto insensibil-
iy and accomplished their pun pose.
Policeman Grammar entered the house,
when the ruffians fled, all but one,
whom he office succeeded in captur-
ing He proved to be Richard Kane,
20 years old, No. 760 Eleventh
avenue. The officer rang for an am
hulance from the Presbyterian hos
pitaL and the surgeon who accom-
PANIED it found the woman very
badly injured, besides suffering
greatly from nervous prostration.
She declined to go to the hospital and
vas attended at her home. She has
teen in an exceedingly critical condi-
ton all day. Justice Ryan committed
Kane for examination Wednesday
week His six accomplices are not
known, but the police believe all of
them will he under arrest before the
day set for Kane's examination.

WHEN a public building, to be used

SERIOUSLY CUT.
Disgraceful Sunday Brawl Out at tn
Dam

a Dlsgraceful sunday BraWl Uut at the
Dam.
Yesterday about y o'clock serious
disturbance occurred out at the dam
which may result fatally for one Mex
lean at least. The exact particulars
of the affair are hard to get at, and it
is likely it was simply the outcome of
a gambling dispute, as most of the
Mexicans were drunk, and their fond
ness for games of chance is well
known. The man who was cut was
Jesus fernando, and his assailant
was GrengO Hernandez. Hrrnand0's
injuries consist Of two deep
stabs in the breast and a
cash across the forehead.
As soon as the difficulty occurred the
officers were notified and they at
once went out. Hernandez, after the
cutting, ran off, going up the river,
but careful and thorough search ,ot
the brush by the officers failed to re-
veal any trace of him whatever.

REVOLUTIONARY PROCLAMATION.

Juan Centreno Flores, n prominent
Mexican, who lives at Monterey,
Mexico, has just issued startling
revolutionary proclamation, which is
being extensively distributed through
ont Mexico. 1t is in Spanish ID
when translated reads as follows:
"FELLow CITIZENs-As MeXicans
we must not remain any logger as
simple spectators of the revolutionary
movement initiated by the frontier
writer Catarino Cara, because, be
sides his revolution on the holy pin
riples of democracy and proclaiming
thereby the liberty of the people, he
has demonstrated to us that his politi-
cal ideal of government rests on the
pillars of the rights Of the peonle.
Who is that worthy Mexican that
