WHAT THE PAPERS SAY.

or is IL the beginning OF the gener-
al revival of trade which Is to in
crease until every man in the land
will be in employ, and prosperity
smiles on every section OF the
country? We most assuredly be-
lieve that this latter is the case.
The panic has not been business
or mercantile panic, occasioned
by want of confidence in the busi-
ness community of the country,
but simply an uncertainty as to
the price at which goods could be
prouuced. The moment that price
was settled, every manufactures
began to adjust his business to
the new condition of affairs, and
now it Is only a question OF the
wages Of the laboring men being
distributed throughout the land to
call into requisition the very best
ability of all departments Of trade
to fill their orders. There is no
question but that the dollar of to.
day will buy a great deal more
than the dollar OF a year ago. The
price of all commodities must be
somewhat lower, and the COMPETE
ton of the country will soon adjust
everything to the same relative ba-
sis as before the depression.
Houston Age: "Between Reed,
Mckinley and Harrison it is
three cornered fight and very pref
ty as it stands. The prize offered
is the honor OF being defeated by
the Democratic nominee in the
next presidential contest"
"When the Car dies, as it seems
he is likely to do soon, we do not
know that there will be any vast
amount OF natural. tears shed, but
if he only knew the impatience
with which a thousand newspaper
men are waiting for him to die
that they may publish some elo-
uuent obituaries, biographical
sketches and learned editorials
they have had standing for a
month, he would probably shed
some tears himself"
Galveston News: Secretary
Hoke Smith has requested the Sec
rotary of war to send troops to the
Indian territory to suppress the
lawless bands which have been
operating there and in the adjacent
country. 1t is now in order for the
estates Fighter" to call the federal
authorities down for thus inter
fering with the liberties of brave
bands of heroes in the territory"
"One thing is especially encour-
aging to the people OF Texas. There
is to be careful economy in the
conduct of state affairs for the next
two years and no increase in gen.
eral taxation. Mr.. Culberson de-
serves credit for having set the
gait on the line of retrenchment
and economy"
Waco Telephone: "The Wash
ington dispatches, which state
that the government has resolved
to rid the Indian territory OF the
bandits and outlaws who infest it,
it is hoped will be followed by a
speedy execution OF this determi-
nation. The territory has been the
home and hiding place of thieves,
train robbers, murderers and out
laws long enough, and the condi-
tion is a discredit to the United
States government. Prompt and
energetic action will wipe out this
great blot, and in so doing may
desirably wipe out some OF the
blOtters, as it were. Now that the
government has determined to
to take a hand in the matter, it
should move quickly and energet-
ically and stamp out every YES
tige Of the outlaws"
Houston Herald: ain his great
lecture here last night, "The last
Days Of the Confederacy," Gen.
John B. Gordon first flanked and
then captured both armies. He is
a great man and has a great sub
ject of which she completely mas
tered. A wooden man would fight
to the death under the leadership
of such man, to say nothing OF
what patriots would do.
What's the matter with the PEG.

put on their "fghting clothes" and

them protection for life and prop.

"Hebrew children" would hesitate
