Cheaper For Their Purpose.

The Telephone company refuses
to allow saloon men to use neigh
boring phones in ordering kegs of
beer for delivery from breweries or
city depots, for the purpose of COM
polling saloons to hire telephones
from the company. The plan does
not seem to work, as the district
messenger service comes in and for
$50 per month, puts in call box,
so arranged that instead of police
and fire alarm call, quarter and
eighth keg calls can be turned in
to the depots, by the regular dis
trict messenger connection, and
the service is said to be much
speedier.

Queer Things IN Georgia.


Atlanta Constitution:
At Hawkinsville Judge A. A.
Lowe has a gourd vine that is a
whopper. 1t grows from seed
sent him from Texas and planted
last spring. One branch OF the
vine chambers over grape arbor
and then runs up tree about
forty feet from where it started.
Another branch travels some dis
lance and cts over into the adj
joining lot of Mr.. Dixon. From
there it goes through the gate and
is making its way toward the
courthouse. 1t will probably be on
hand to hear Judge Smith charge
the grand jury on the third Mon
day in November. This branch
is about 65 feet long and gets lOnC =
er every day. Mr.. Dixon claims the
gourds on his side Of the fence
and says he will have them, if he
has to go to law about them. AS
the case will be tried before
Judge Lowe, it is easy to foretell
what the verdict will be.

is sought to be made between the
dead statesman Schleicher and Mr..
Augustus w. Houston. No one
can stop these comparisons. 1
might say, sparrow is a greater
bird than an eagle, but it would
not make it so. Still / think such
statement will do Mr.. Houston no
good. 1t will recall the long and
tedious convention of many years
ago, when two intellectual giants
sought for the Democratic nominal
ton for Congress from this district
at a convention held in San An
tonic. For days and days ballot
ing went on, and when the true
and trusty friends Of the two can
didates we're shown to be firm and
unyielding, both candidates were
turned loose TO test their strength
with the people.
Mr.. Schleicher was within a
fractional part of vote of being
the nominee ;this he could not get.
That convention would not abro-
gate the two-thirds rule, and, be-
cause he had been faithful to his
trust and had only had one term,
the people believed him entitled to
a reelection and elected him over
one Of the best men that ever
struggled for the advancement of
Texas, one who ran in obedience to
the demands of his friends and who
on the Supreme bench and in
the governors Office has made
records Of which all Texans are
proud. No! No! 1t will not do
to disturb the venerated grave of
Gustav Schieicher, for comparison,
with either living candidate.
Neither the ambitious Democratic
candidate, the conscientious Re-
publican nominee, or Mr.. Gates,
will make a second Schleicher for
us; he was enabled to draw to his
banner hosts OF Republicans who
believed in his financial policy
then nat money-just as Judge
Noonan is now drawing legions Of
Democrats to his support, who be-
lieve in the late Sam Randall
Democracy.
On local or county matters | do
not care to dwell any more, our
Democratic party exists in name
only, the Republican party is divi-
ded and it is said that there are
even antagonistic leaders among
the Populists. We have our per-
sonal likes among those mention
ed as candidates and the present
state of affairs will allow us full
scope to exercise them; it is I'M
fortunate that party organizations
have not been kept ur, still
it must be admitted that old BeXar,
throughout all its disorganized
state, has had and has now a good
set of officers, and all mentioned
so far, could refill or fill again their
old places well, and the few new
names are those also Of capable
men. Better it will be without
combines and twill come again
when party Zines are drawn for
the Republicans and Democrats.
1T Will be a bitter pill for many
Democrats to vote against the
nominee Of their party, majority
will or not, fusion or not, but the
disturbing Of the honOred dead for
comparisons with the living will
make it easier for all of those who
remember how party lines were
forgotten when SChleicher also
said she would protect his district"
and stood byiit without calling it
a cam paign lie and how his words
were trusted by more than only
personal friends of other political
creeds. Schleicher was of and for
the people first, then Democrat.

No Indian Outbreaks Feared.

Gen. Armstrong, assistant commissioner
of Indian affairs, speaking of the changes
of the United States troops and the aban-
donment of several military posts in the
west, says that it will have no effect what
ever upon the Indians There will be no
outbreaks as a result of the changes" he
said, tas there are still plenty of troops
easily accessible to any possible point OF
danger. The fact is, there is little danger
of Indian troubles now. We may have an
occasion al disturbance, with some depreda-
tons and outrages, but they are no more
likely to happen than among the white peo-
pie. There is more danger from anarchists
in Chicago than from all the Indians in
the vest. Indian wars are a thing of the
past. Some bands may make trouble, pill
lage and rob- or something of that kind
but then the James and Younger gangs
did the same, and white men still hold up
trains. With the present railroad facilities
troops can be transported from the large
posts more quickly than they can march
from any of the little posts that have been
abandoned. So far protecting the In
dian frontier is to be considered, the
changes will make no difference
