JUDGE REAGAN has, as a matter OF
fact, stripped of all equivocations, an
nounced himself az a candidate for
governor. He says nothing could in.
duce him to become candidate 'eX~
cept the failure of those who are or may
become candidates to endorse and
sustain the doctrines and policies of
the Democracy Of Texas, set forth in
their platform of principles OF 1890
and 1892" OF course Judge Reagan
means that the candidate must en-
dorse the Houston car-shed plat
form else he will become
a candidate. As no candidate
of any ability and worthy Of
gubernatorial honors has yet declared
himself in the race on the Hogg plat
form, it is reasonable conclusion that
Judge Reagan will be candidate. 1t

Del Vale Correspondence.

DEL VALE, Ten, April %, 1891
To The Statesman,
Once again have we been visited by
the dark angel OF death, and house
hold among Us has been darkened by
the shadow of his wing. No greater
shock have the people Ct Del Vale
sustained than was caused by the cir.
cumstance of the death OF Mr.. Henry
Seipp, worthy son of Mr.. H. Seipp, Sr,
& respected citizen, good nelghbor
and a good man. Ii il would in the
least alleviate the pangs OF sorrow for
the bereaved ones to know that they
mourn not alone, let them bear up and
be comforted, for the sympathy of the
entire community is theirs Nor is
This all, for so exemplary life did the
departed enc live while here with us
thar we feel that he is nov enjoying
the fulldl,ment OF the promises ever
held out to the weary traveller of this
world as he struggles along the rugged
pathway of duty.

In the latter part of the decade from

and time again on account of peculiar

have been occasions in the history OF
the Southern states when it would
have been dastardly for her people to
await the enactment of laws and the
execution thereof through the regular
courts, for it has 80 often been forced

THE PROSPECT BRIGHT TENS.

THE PROSPECT BRlGH TENS.
The Democrats in the senate are
closing up their lines nearer and
nearer together every day, and the
prospect is now good for reasonable
tariff for revenue bill with incidental
protection. 1t turns out that the OBJ
structionists were merely making
play to satisfy some special local inter-
est of their constituents, but that they
dare not oppose the demands of the
people as announced in the Democratic
platform on this question. We may
reasonably expect that in short time
the Wilson bill will pass the senate
slightly emasculated and disfigured
80 that perhaps Mr.. Wilson will have
to take o second look at his progeny
to admit It's paternity, but all the
same as Senator Mills intimated we
will have to be content with the best
we can get. 1t would have been
better for the whole country to pass it
as it came from the hands of Mr.. Will
sons committee, but the consolation
is that its influence even in limited
form will be so beneficial
to all the interests of
the country that it will be an easy
thing to amend it from time to time
until we have a perfect law with a
tariff for revenue with incidental pro-
lection so adjusted as to insure the
largest, widest and most universal
prosperity to the whole country with
the obnoxious features offs bounty to
favored classes totally eliminated
from the theory and practice of Ameri-
can politics Time is not to be con-
sidered especially, in arriving at such
happy contamination.

WHICH PARTY Is RESPONS~
IBLE FOR COXEYISM?

Perhaps the greatest political neon
sistencv that ever appeared on the
surface of politics in this country Is
the charge that the Democracy Is re-
eponsible for the CoXey theory. Good
gracious, what will not these oppo-
neu,s of an honest administration re-
sort to in order to pervert iacts ana
falsify history? The Democratic party
has never taught paternallsm. Not
one of it's leaders has ever an"
nouuced that the government
was in duty bound TO furnish
employment to its unemployed cl'i'
zens. On the contrary, the Demo-
cratic party has asked nothing more
than fair field and open competition
for all its citizens. 1t has confidence
in the ability of the American people
in every department OF trade, manu-
facture, enterprise and in individual
effort to sustain themselves, II they
were not required to help other pe0-
ple sustain themselves. III mas
been the Republican party
which has taught the doctrine
that the government was psternaI IN
its functions, ard owed every man
living.
Its late president. MI. Harrison, mas
boldly and openly declared, with all
the emphasis of a far.sighted and sa-
Pacious demago9 that it was the
duty of the government to furnish
employment for the unemployed"
Coxey and all the branches of his
army, from the East and North
West to the Pacific have been inspir-
ed, encouraged and animated by the
doctrine announced by Mr.. Harrison
and they are now on their way to
Washington to quote his words and
demand the employment he says they
have right to from the government
Was there ever more mendacity I'M
der the sun than the charge of these
Republican newspapers that the
Democratic party is responsible for
COxeyism?

Is HORACE Chiffon A DEMO
Graf?

Mr.. Horace Chiffon is running as an
ostensible Democrat for the United
States senate anG in his opening
speech at Georgetown Saturday fol-
lowed in the wake of Lodge and other
Republicans in stirring up strife and
opposing a Democratic administration

ton said "Cleveland is for New York

believe that the president of the
United States, Grover Cleveland, was

lieve it, he is so totally perverted in
the estimate of an unseltish and pa
trioio statesman that it gives such
evidence Of Il too narrow
comprehension OF me- aud affairs for
him to be q senator of the United
States. There are Democrats in Tex
as who believe that Mr.. Cleveland is
unwise in some of his recommended
tions and policies, but Mr.. Chiffon is
the first ostensible Democrat in Texas
who doubts his patriotism and his de-
votion to the whole country. The
Democracy Of Texas know that Mr..
Cleveland sacrificed reelection TO
the presidency rather than conceal
his opinions, aud the man who im-
pugns his large nature by circum

destroy the efficiency OF aDemocratiC

IT speaks well for the Henry George
theory that its typical town where its
policy has been adopted, Hyattstown,
Maryland, did not furnish single
recruit to the CoXey army passing
through it. George has been charged
as in sympathy with communism, but
we have never done him that injustice.
His theory may be all wrong, but it
certainly has no participation in the
doctrines of either the Socialists or
Communists.

Exp ansiva Economy.

Some people begrudge the little
money that an Allcock's POrus Plaster
costs, and then when they are racked
with pain from a lame back or from
the soreness arising from q cold they
will spend any amount of money to
relieve the pain. If they had only
had one of these world renowned
plasters oD hand they would be saved
vast amount of suffering and be
considerably richer. At the first sign
of stiffness of the joints apply one of
these plasters without delay. The
soreness will be greatly relieved at
once and soon disappear entirely. 1t
will be money saved to have them on
hand, to say nothing of the comfort
they bring.

tatipg matter.
