A POYAI, VJ.SITDR.

A cable disIat In the New York
Herald informs us that IL is contem-
plated by the royal house Of England
that Prince George of Wales, will
visit this country this spring and
give the Columbian Exposition at
Chicago the benefit of his presence.
He Will re accompanied by fleet OF
English war vessels and all the pomp
and pride OF princely retinue.
Prince George Is the second son of
the Prince and Princess of Wales and
since the death of his elder brother,
the heir apparent to the throne of
Great Britain and India. He is 2S
years of age and has served in the
navy from midshipman to captain
of man .of-war. He has borne his
part as subordinate and an officer
as loyal sailor and gentleman, and
deserves on that account, the cour-
tesy due gentleman representing
the government of q friendly nation.

Yesterday was very decidedly a
very dull day in both the senate and
house. All of the clerks have
been chosen and the pages
appointed, and now the distinguished
solons are ready for business, and
from this time on will proceed to make
history and names and fame tor them
selves in the most approved fashion,
using all the latest scientific and
mechanical appliances, such ae the
new tangled pencil sharpeners and
patent double action letter files, with
which they have been supplied by
their respective and at the same time
very respectful sergeant-at.arms.
The senate spent the morning doing
nothing and adjourned over until to-
day to finish it up. A large batch of
bills was introduced which will not
be seen or heard from again until they
have lun the gauntlet of committee
crutiny. The resolution ordering the
message was taken up and the num-,
Der of copies to be printed increased.
The house spent the morning
wrestling with the same question, and
with resolution allowing memb ers to
lake copies of daily papers publishing
the proceedings of both houses and
thus furnishing them with means OF
keeping their constituents posted as
to their doings in readable form.
Last night the finance committees
Of both houses were prayerfully con-
sidering the per diem and mileage
bills, thus giving some of the new
mem bers their first task of committee
work. 1t was a weighty subject they
had to deal with, and although The
STATESMAN reporter was not present
he was informed that their delibera-
tions were exceedingly impressive.
Following is the routine report:

The senate was opened at 10 O'Clock
yesterday with prayer by Chaplain

THE EMPLOYMENT OF CONVICT
LABOR.

We repeat that If the Texas legis-
lature want to do grand thing ana
by one act Danish competition between
free and convict labor and reduce the
price of cotton goods to the consumer,
let them frame bill and pass 1t max
ing sufficient appropriation oil the
surplus In the treasury to build q cot
ton factory near the great dam on the
Colorado river in which to employ
convict labor in the manufacture OIL
cotton goods.
The surplus of power after Austin
gets her perfect water and light sys-
TENS in full operation would offer the
state the cheapest motor power FOR
running such factory. For, although
the dam was built to furnish water
and light to the city of Austin by, re-
cent improvements in electric motors
the water power obtained is SUFFICIENT
To furnish the city with water and
lieht and run such factory.
Such scheme would settle the DIM
cult problem that has embarrassed
the state and excited the just indigna-
ton of free labor, and at the same time
IL would save to the farmer the trans
portatlon OF his cotton to the East and
frequently to Europe and the freight
charges and profits of middle men
from there back on the manufactured
goods.
Any member OF the Legislature who
desires to do great good to the state
and leave himself a lasting reputation
who will take this matter up and
push 1t to accomplishment will deserve
the reward he will get, the lasting
gratitude and praise of the people OF
Texas. 1t ought to be measure OF
the most important consideration to
the present Legislature, and II 1t occu-
pied all the time during the session 1t
would be time and effort well spent In
behalf of the people of Texas.

REPORT OF THE STATE HEALTH
OFFICER,

The report of DIR. II. NJ. Swearingen,
state heal h officer for the state Of
Texas, to Governor Hogg, is very
interesting document and demon
strates clearly the efficiency OF thor
ough organization in Graduating in
fictitious disease and in protecting the
state from Its introduction.
1t embraces the years of 1891 and
1892, covering the whole period of DIR.
Swearingen's superintendency since
his appointment on Jan. "a, 1891, up
to recent time. At the time that
DR.. Swearingen began his duties there
were forty-two different places in
Texas where the smallpox had OBJ
tanned an obstinate footing. The en-
tire state then was without system or
even county organization and the
state health officer was almost daily
called upon by telegraph to attend
these smallpox cases In all the differ
emit localities. DR.. SweariDgen, with
the consent Of the governor, imme-
diately organized local health boards
in each county and appointed physi-
sians TO attend to the cases In their
localities, and, although
The law then was conflicting, and in
efIicient he succeeded by his admir-.
able executive powers in putting all

ton to restrict or prohibit the
immigration of any aliens into
the country or to require such
aliens already in the country
to remove therefrom, was a
well-settled principle Of inter
national law, and was confirm
ed by an unbroken line of de-
cisions in this court. The
Legislative power of the gov
ernment had not transcribed
any of its constitutional limi-
tations in the act under con
sideration. 1t was within its
power to determine the regu-
lations under which these al
lens should be permitted to
remain in the United States,
or, failing to observe these
regulations. they should be
required to leave the country.
The Geary Law required the
Chinese in this country to

country. Out of 10000 in
the United States only about
5000 have complied with the
law.

LOUD murmerings are heard
on every side because General
Bisscll does not turn the Re-
publicans out. Nothing more
than we expected. Secretary
Carlisle. however. is doing
the right thing. 1t has al
ways been the boast of Re-
publican officials that they
were ready to get out when
the Democrats "got in" Sec
retary Carlisle is taking them
at their word and helping
them to move along rapidly.
The people voted last fall for a
new administration and they
expected change all around.
They want the departments
at Washington and elsewhere
to be filled with men not only
true to the people but to the
party in power. Already it
has been shown that en-
ployees in the Census Bureau
have endeavored to twist
around their reports in such
a manner as to boost up
McKinleyism. Mr.. Cleveland
may be wise in surrounding
himself with the political enc
mics of the Democratic party
but we are looking around for
the man who has the temerity
to commend him for it. We
have not yet given up hope
though, that he may awake
from his iridescent dream of
absolutism to the fact that
Democracy wears a serious
frown upon her brow and is
tired Of this foolishness.
