SPLIT WIDE OPEN.

All attempts to belittle the di-
visions existing in the Democratic
councils of this state are unwise on
the part of the Democracy. Not
only is there division arising out
of the personal antagonism Of
wOuld-be party leaders, but there
are radical differences of opinion
as to party policy. 1t cannot be
successfully denied that very
considerable part of the Demo-
cratic party in Texas is much more
in accord with the views of the
POpulistS than with those of Mr. .
Cleveland and his cabinet. The
declarations of the Chicago plat
form as interpreted by the presi-
dent and his advisors, and the
declarations of the state platform
as furnished by Hogg and his fol-
lowers, are Numerically at va
rance. The attitude assumed by

Dissent appears to be nourished
and brought up in the lap of the
city establishment. The disagree
ments that grow into form among
the members of the council and the
hangers-on of the administration
threaten developments that will at
least put the people in possession
of inside facts concerning which
they should not be left in igno-
rance.

The opinion prevails very gener-
ally in the east and north that
Texas is destined to have an I'M
usual flood of immigration pour
into it this winter. Upon what
basis this general impression is
founded is not so easy to deter
mine, but if these immigrants are
of the right stripe, with plenty of
muscle and spot cash, Texas will
open her arms to welcome all who
come.

When municipal, state and ma

do now.

Pa, who for years had shortness of
breath, sleeplessness, pain in left side,

twenty years suffered with Heart
Disease, was pronounced incurable
by physicians, death stared him in
the face, could not lie down for fear
Of smothering to death. Immediately

night, and is now well man. The

You may tell In charming and wonderful rhymes
OF the grand Improvements OF modern times;

And all the advances Of modern days:
But prefer, though sluggish and slow,
The good old times of the Long Ago.
You may write Of our useful and new Inventions;
OF the pride of the people and future intentions;
OF manklnd's wonderful elevation,
And the prospects bright Of the present nation:
But fail to discover. wherever | 90.

We may send our kilograms over the ocean.
Aud raise In moment dire cOmmotiOn;
May fly like a bird DER the continent grand,
And with steam's mighty strength skim the water
and land;
But far more happy we were, know,
In the good old times Of the Long Ago
In the good old days OF pumpkin Piles.
When people were honest and true and WISE
when the farmer, happy ut set of sun,
Rested happy, his days WORK done,
BY the hickory fire, with its cheerful glow.
In the good old times OF the Long Ago.
When the merchant gave honest ana upright
And regarded his console ce FAR more than his
treasure;
When beauty in ilsey and calico dressed
Was esteemed and considered as good as the best
When there we're no classes Of high and of low
In the good old times of the Long Ago.
When there was no striving for other mems places,
And eminent lawyers had very few cases.
And doctors we're scarce, and their patients were
few,
And each OF them had very little to do,
For the people lived frugal and careful and slow
In the good old times of the Long Ago
When there were no selfish and shrewd politicians
All striving and seeking for lofty positions.
Debasing the people with all sorts of measures
To crafty only their own selfish pleasures
And the statesmen were honest, as all of us know
In the good old times of the Long Ago.
Oh, for the glorious, Heavenly times
When the State got along without trouble or
crimes,
When the old women knitted and made their own
clothes
And the men had no big bills, nor worries, nor
woes;
Oh, bring back the days. to the high and the low,
OF the good old times of the Long Ago.
