FROM TEXAS.

Editor CHRONICLE:
Your Holiday correspondent says that
Il Mr.. Miller. who had recently returned
from Texas, said that he never knew how
clever the people of Tennessee were until
he had spent a few months in the West,
which is an insinuation that the people Of
Texas are not clever.
Now, perhaps he did not remain in the
Lone Star State long enough to form any
acquaintance. Again, he may be like a
great many others, who come across Ar
kansas into the pineries of Eastern Texas
and go back protesting to know something
about Texas.
| have resided in Texas nearly eleven
years, have been over a good portion of
twelve counties, and yet do not know
much about Texas Texas is big State
and has all kinds of country in it, and it
has some as clever people as ever lived;
in fact, a great MANY of them came from
the old Volunteer State,
left good old Benton when | was large
enough to be man, but was not of age.
As to this immediate vicinity it can not
be beat for a good country and honest,
industrious people. 1t is high rolling,
black prairie and healthy. The soil is
from fourto six feet deep, and very sticky
when wet, but it soon dries up under fair
weather.
We are having more rain tins spring
than we have had for several years. We
had Ablzzard the 25th of March killing
the corn, but we replanted, and it is up
again almost large enough to pillow.
THE CHRONICLE had something to say
about Mr.. Barnes OF Big Sandy agreeing
with it in politics, and in which some
thing is said about the Eastern traitors
Now, ! am not a Democrat OF the Dave
Hill stripe, but | am strictly a Grover
Cleveland Democrat. He may not be
perfect-no man is but il ever there was
man who has unhnchingly stood up t.
what he conscientiously believed to bC
right, that man is Grover Cleveland We
there are a few men who profess to b.
Democrats who seem to take pleasure il
encouraging the Republicans and Popu
ites into abusing him; nevertheless cal
not but admire the only honest man tina
has warmed the high-stool since the da,
of my birth. Respectfully,

HEIDENHEmER, TEX, April Il.

Perhaps the correspondent has miscOnstrued
our application of the word TRAITORS" The trail
tors referred TO were Senator Hill, who had just
made his speech IN the Senate against the Wilson
bill and everything Democratic in general, and
those Democratic members O1CongreSs from New
England, who, bytheir continued absentism from
the HoUee, have broken q quorum and retarded
important legislation. They are hypocutes and
traitors. AS to President Cleveland, the potl-
clans bitterly autagonized his nomination. and
this enmity S SO deeply rooted that the war Of
opposition has been carried 10 the halls Of Con
peSs, and is one Of tie causes ofthe present long
delay incnacung needed legislation. Twice dur
ing MI, Clcyeland's first administration the PEG
pie thought he was wrong when he proved TO be
right; mark ii, he viii be righCth time, and now
that the Last has shown its hand, if the cOnserv-
alive people of the South and West will unite in
selecting members Of the next Congress who are
consistent with the Chicago platform, Grover
Cleveland'S administration will end in a blaze OF
glory second only to that OF Washington.-ED. j

ing or romping with his grandchildren. He
owns Gibraltar island, on Lake Erie, and
passes the summer there with some of his
children or grandchildren. His favorite
sport is fishing, and twice a year he enjoys
himself with rod and reel at his preserves
in Lycoming county, Pa.
The career of the man who raised $780,
0OO,0 900 for the United States government
during the trying times of the late war is
too we'll known to call for an elaborate BIZ
ography here. When the wal began, money
was urgently needed by the Federal forces.
and Secretary Chase deputized Mr.. Cooke
to secure the first loan of $50, 900, 600 from q
syndicate of bankers. For several years he
continued to act as the governments agent,
and millions of bonds were turned over to
him to be sold. Secretary Fessenden, who
succeeded Secretary Chase, concluded to
get along without Mr.. Cookies aid and en-
deavored to raise money for the prosecution
of the war through the banks of the coun.
try. After several monGhsof poor success
he called Mr.. Sooke to his aid, telling him
that he had just been in New York to sell
$12, 1000, 600 in bonds, but could not get an
offer. Mr.. Cooke took the entire $12, 900,
600 on the spot, apportioned the bonds
among his friends and shortly after raised
$50, 900, 900 more for the government in the
same manner
Mr.. Cooke lost everything in the crash o
1879, which his failure precipitated, but aft
erward paid dollar for dollar. He was alst
prominently identified with the building o
the Northern Pacificrailroad.
