TARIFF.

Government is the only known
means of furnishing protection to
life, liberty and property. A GOV
ernment cannot DO maintained
without mourning expenses. The
Expenses of the government must
be paid by those governed. Well
established governments claim the
unquestionable right of imposing
taxes for the purpose of raising
sufficient revenue for the proper
conduct of the governments. Ev-
lery individual should feel under
obligations to defray his proper
tional part of the expenses of the
government and the government
should have the right and does
have the right to exact from each
member governed SO much of his
earning, wages or property as Is
necessary for his proportionate
part of the govern nent expenses.
But under no condition should a
liberty-loving government exact,
either directly or indirectly, one
cent more than is absolutely nee
essary for the proper maintenance
of that government. No one ques-
tons the right of a government to
raise by taxation (as there is no
other way of raising it, sufficient
funds to meet the necessaries of
The government when regulated
upon honest and economical prin-
ciples. One of the modes adopted
by our government for the purpose
of raising revenue is by means of
the Tariff. So long as the govern
ment holds to taxation by tariff,
for revenue only, when the revenue
to be raised is based upon the act
usl and necessary expenses of the
government no one can complain,
and such a mode is not even ques-
tionable. That such a tariff af-
fords slight protection to home in
dustries is another unquestionable
fact, but q fact of which no one
can complain. But when a gov
eminent so increases its expenses,
by fraud, extravaganza, or other
wise, beyond the expense absolut-
ly required for the maintenance Of
a just government, it no longer re-
mains q true government but be-
comes a usurper and extortioner.
And when a government under the
name of protection exacts taxes or
revenues from one class of people
for the promotion of another it
superseeds the bounds of a just
government and institutes princi-
pals of slavery, and enforces a sys-
tematic scheme of robbery. The
Supreme Court of the United
States did on a certain occasion de
clare, from the bench. that
"To lay with one hand the pow
er of the government Oh the prop
erty Of the citizens, and with the
other bestow it upon favored indi-
viduaIs to aid private enterprises
and build up private fortunes, Is
none the less a robbery because it
is done under the forms Of law and
is called taxation"
Hence we feel that the expenses
of our government should be re-
duced to the absolute necessities,
when honestly and economically
administered, that tariff should be
imposed solely for the purpose Of
revenue only, and that the taxa
ton should be equally distributed,
and that Il is wholly wrong to tax
one class of people for the promo
ton of any other class.

TEXAS.

part of the U S. 1t is bounded on
the north by New Mexico, Oklaho-
ma T., and Indian Territory, on
the east by Arkansas and Louisi-
ana, and on the south and west by
the Gulf of Mexico and Mexico.
1t extends through nearly eleven
degrees of latitude, and thirteen
degrees of longitude. 1t has a
greater extent than France or the
German Empire. The outline of
the state is very irregular. The
longest line that can be drawn
from north to south is about 700
miles, that frem east to west about
800 miles. The state has nearly
500 miles of coast. The popula-
ton of Texas in 1890 was 1895, 523.
The first settlement of Texas was
made at Matagorda Bay in 1856.
Texas became a republic in 1886.
1t was annexed 1916 to the Union.
The annexation of Texas to the
United States was the direct cause
of the Mexican war. The most i'm
portsEt battles fought in Texas
during the struggle for independ-
ence were at Gonzales, Golisd,
San Antonio, de Bexar, the Alamo
and San Jacinto. The battles of
the Mexican war proper, fought
within Texas, Fort Brown, Resaca-
della PsImo, and Palo Alto. No
important battles of the Civil war
were fought in Texas. Between
the level plain bordering the Gulf
of Mexico in the southeastern part
and the mountain plateau region
in the west, the surface of Texas
presents three we'll marked ter
races. Texas presents great va
riety of climate and is noted for
its clear and beautiful skies. Tex
as has fine facilities for agricult-
ure, stockraising and commerce.
There is n vast belt of most yalua-
BILE timber in the eastern part of
the stats adequate to the needs of
the state for many generation.
Minerals are found in various
localities already. Coal is mined
in several parts of the State. The
rivers of Texas belong entirely to
the Gulf system. The main boun-
Diary rivers are the Red river on
the north, the Sabine on the east
and the Rio Grande on the south
west. The chief river belonging
to Texas is the Trinity, navigable
as far as Liberty throughout the
year. Texas is prominently an
agricultural state, it raises more
live stock than any other state,
such as cattle, horses and sheep.
Indian corn is the chief cereal, but
other grain is grown finely in the
northern part. Sweet potatoes are
very largely produced, and good
article of tobacco is grown. All
the semi-tropical fruits thrive well
along the coast. The present coz
stitution of Texas was adopted in
1875, and went into effect April Is,
1876. A superintendent of Public
instruction is elected by the peo-
pie at every general election. He
is a member of the state board of
education and its executive officer.
The main University is located at
Austin, and Medical Department
at Galveston. The State Agricult-
ural and Mechanical College is To-
Gated at College Station, in Brazos
county. Normal instruction is
provided for white teachers at Sam
Huston Normal Institute. Dallas
and San Antonio are the largest
cities. Austin is the capital.
