The Dal-Gal. News says: "The
trouble in the United States today is
the fact that the government is trying
to absorb the people," You have got
the wrong end foremost, colonel. The
only trouble now in this country is
that the people are trying to control
the government, and it is only ques-
ton of q short time before they will
succeed. When the people in this
country get to be in earnest about
anything, get it on the brain as it
were, they always succeed.

SEN FENCED FOR LIFE.
Jim Williams Lat Off Easy for Foul MUIR
der in Hunt County.

VIII hoG VII 1idpJ AVA q GOuA mul-'
der in Hunt County.
Special to The Statesman.
GREENvILLE, Tex, July 15.-The
jury in the case of Jim Williams,
charged with the murder of Alvin
Humphreys, returned a verdict this
evening finding defendant guilty o,
mul der in the first degree and and as
sessed his punishment at confinement
in the penitentiGry for life. When
the clerk read the decision the prisoner
only emiled. The crime for which
Williams has been convicted was one
of the most foul and diabolical kr own
in the criminal annals of Hunt
county. Humphreys lived with his.
family IS miles south of Greenville.
Three years ago he separated from his
wife and went West. Williams
came and worked on the farm for
Mrs. Humphreys. They finally became
engaged to marry. Three months
ago Humphreys returned to the
neigh borhood of his old home. He
called on his wife, made a PROPOSE
ton to come back and live with her.
This Mrs. Humphreys heartily agreed
to. William became incensed at his
fiance's action and left the place. On
Friday night, May 10, at II o'clock,
William knocked at Humphreys
front door and asked permission to
come in, stating he had forgot his
coat and vest. Mrs. Humphreys
opened the door and while lighting
the lamp Williams attached Hum
phreys in bed with an ak, splitting
his head entirely open. Death was
instantaneous. The murderer
was arrested next day and
in the presence of officers attempted
to cut his throat with a knife, stating
that he did not care to live any longer
if he had to be separated from Mrs.
Humphrey.

MISREPRESENTATION THE STOCK
IN TRADE.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. THE STOCK
IN TRADE.
A good many newspapers, gener'
ally of the Republican ilk, are pro-
claiming as a fact that the national
Democratic platform demands the re-
peal OF the 10 per cent tax on state
banks, and they also insist that con-
gress will be forced to repeal the tax
and it will flood the country with
wildcat currency. Now, this is an
assumption of fact that does not ex-
list. If these wise and prophetic
statesmen will read the Democratic
platform they will find that the con-
vention did not denounce the 10 per
cent tax on state banks, nor did it de-
mand its repeal as 1t did the Sherman
law and the force bill. The conven-
tion merely recommended the repeal
of the taA with the full knowledge
that the constitution of the United
States prohibits the states from issuing
| bills of credit or from making
anything but gold or silver
legal tender for the payment
of debts. If the national Democracy
had demanded the repeal of a law
that would have resulted in flooding
the country with wildcat state cur
rency they would have been tie lar
gest and stupidest ct of dunderheads
that ever got that far away from
home, and the charge that they did
it is as false as the statement would
be that they were an ignorant set of
men. There was too much wisdom
in that convention ever to have made
such blunder as that. These men
knew o thing or two about the consti-
tuition of the United States, which
their critics seem to know nothing
about.
Why, when greenbacks were made
legal tender during the war by the
congress of the United States it was
regarded as an assun ption of power
that did not belong to con-
gress to make paper mon
ey a legal tender, and
the father of the system, was of the
private opinion that 1t was nothing
more or less than "forced loan," and |
adopted as war measure. Again all
men know that but for the
of an accommodating |
gentleman as member of the su-
preme court that learned tribunal
would have at once decided it uncon-
1t is very good plan for
man when he sits down to,write about
first to inform himself on
the subject he intends to discuss. !
However, if he intends to lie straight
along and strike from the shoulder
every time with manufactured facts, 1t
is quite unnecessary for him to inform
himself on the matter he proposes to
discuss. ., In the first place a good |
many of these bypercritical gentle
men have never read the Demo-
cratic platform or the constitution
of the United States and having be-
come careless of their reputation
either for intelligence or veracity
they are compelled to lie right along
in order to keep up any kind of a I
racket,
The matter will come before con-
gress in regard to the repeal of the 10
per cent tax on state banks, but not in
the shape of "a demand" by Demo-
cratic platform, and it will be wisely
considered by men who are aware of
the IT strictions thrown around states
on the subject of currency and it may
be confidently predicted that congress
never will take such action upon it as
will result in Flooding the country
with wild cat currency"

The one topic above all others occu-
pying public attention at this time is
the decline in the value of silver. For
the past two or three years the silver
barons, not content with the enormous
fortunes they were amassing under
the old state of our laws, not only
grasped everything in sight, but
raised a clamor for still further license
to enrich themselves, no matter who
bore the cost. Not content with hav-
ing 65 cents worth of silver made into
a coin and called a dollar, when the

1t is reported that Secretary Morton
will do his part to abolish the practice
so long in force of sending out seed for
the alleged purpose Of testing their
adaptability to different sections of
the country. 1t is time this outrage
came to an end. While nominally for
the benefit of farmers and horticulture
it was worked practically for the ben,
eft of politicians. Every year tons
upon tons of seed were scattered over
the country and not one recipient in a
thousand ever made any record of the
result, and in many cases seed was
sent to those too lazy or Indifferent to
even plant them. The seed sent out
by the department is invariably the
best of the kind and appreciated by a
few eXperi.nentalists, but their num-
Der is too small to justify the continu
ance OF such an expensive and unnec-
essary institution.

THE COUPON SYSTEM.

Advantageous to customers aud mer-
chants alike; it gives customers no
chance to dispute accounts, makes no
mistakes, and merchants no chance to
commit errors. Gives no delay in the
hurry and excitement of business; saves
the expense of book keeping, and when
properly used, creates feeling OF con-
fidence between merchants and their
customers.
OF our customers we respectfully ask
fair trial, as we are convinced that the

conducting a general credit business;

undersigned will do business exclusively

whitman County Advanced.

Whitman county has taken another
step forward in the onward march to-
ward wealth and power, says the Ga
zette. The county commissioners last
Saturday advanced 1t from the eleventh
to the tenth class of counties. This was
made necessary upon the report of the
last census taker who found the popu-
lation to have increased to 22,56S. The
general law OF county classification com
PEELED the order of the commissioners.
The county officials are gamers by
the elevation. To all salaried officers it
means an increase of 800 per year in
pay except the school superintendent,
whose increase will be $50 per annum.
The prosecuting attorney is also allowed
$1,000 per year for additional legal as
sistance. This virtually brings his sal
airy to S3400 and he pays his own as
sistance bills.
The salaries from the date OF the order
will hereafter be: Sheriff $2400, audit
or, S24O0; clerk, S2200; treasurer, $2200;
