SIDE ISSUES DO NOT COUN


We cannot see the necessity of fore,
ing the silver question into a state
campaign, but we can see that if it is
done it will again disrupt the Demo
cratic party III Texas. 1t is not a state
but national question, and for the
sake of harmony In the Democratic
ranks each wing has agreed to prefer
NIT all these exciting questions belong
ing solely to national legislation. We
want a solid Democratic party at the
polls in Texas to meet and defeat the
wild and dangerous vagaries Of the
POpulists, and it seems to us suicidal
to inject any question into the canvass
foreign and beyond state jurisdiction.
Either Mr. Reagan must intend to
fla as many Democrats as he can into
the POpulist party or he wants to fix
up legislature favorable to the free
coinage of silver in order to be or be
enabled to mention the candidate for
the United States senate before
that legislature. If the former is
his intention then he ought
by all means to pull off his Democratic
mask and stand flat-footed with the
Populists on their whole platform, or
on the other hand his motives are in
tensely selfish and prejudicial to the
main design of the Democratic party
to reduce the Mckinley tariff to rev.
enue basis. In either horn of the di-
lemma Mr.. Reagan may take, the logi-
cal conclusion is that he is in favor of
the silver question becoming para
mount to the tariff question and he is
willing to deetroy all state harmony
and Democratic efficiency in order to
accomplish his purpose of the free and
unlimited coinage of silver.
Neither is the Democratic party in
the country nor the national platform
in accord with Mr.. Reagan and his lay
out in Texas, neither is the Demo
cratic party nor the national platform
in accord with Senator Hill of New
York and his layout. The evidence
is rapidly accommodating that even
the silver men are satisfied that
nothing can be done for the benefit
of that metal by hasty legislation and
since the veto by Mr.. Cleveland of the
segniorage bill the most extreme Sill
yer men, with the exception of Mr.
Reagan, seem satisfied that it shall be
settled according to the manner pre-.
scribed 10y the national Democratic
platform.
The main object II the Democratic |
party is to keep its lines well closed up |
and TO move upon the strongholds of |
the protective tariff az every Uppor-
tuuity If Mr.. Reagan and his layout
and Senator Hill and his layout cant
march to this music then both of them
with their little corporals guard had
better drop out OF the line and wait
for the Populist wagon, i'm which 70
take ride, tor You bet each OF them
want to ride.

THE BUGABOO OF The INCOME
TAN

The Galveston Dallas News thinks
that If the incOme tax becomes part
of the enacted tariff bill now before
the senate, it will he disastrous to all
investments of Eastern capital in the
South. The News goes further in its
apprehension of evil from the income
clause; it says that although all the
Texas representatives in congress
almost unanimously, with all the
other representatives. from the South,
are in favor of the income tax; that
sit is u gun trained by deliriOus fancy
at painted devil ana not a real
enemy. It's present harm is appre-
pension. Let it be discharged and
the rever beration of the shot will be
heard around the world and once
more political folly will recOil in a
proportional and toreordained meas
ure of financial disaster" We have
been in the habit of taking the pOliti.
cal utterances of the News as sound =,
but we confess we sometimes strike q
metaphor like this that it is almost
impossible to fathom on account of
what logicians would call its mixed
qualities, but we suppose our
cOtemporary means that the
effort OF the Southern rep.
resentatives in congress will bring
retaliation on the South by reason of
their support of this tax. Senator Hill
said it was designed ultimately to
put upon nine states between Cape
Cod aud the Mississippi II per cent,
and New York alone 80 per cent Of
the expenses Of the governments"
While we are utterly opposed 70 the
taxation OF one section for the relief
OF another, while we would oppose the
taxing of the section designated by
Senator Hill as a section, we might
agree, and would agree. to tax q cer-
tain kind of wealth in any section that
derived its superior advantages from
its location ana governmental expen-
ditures for their benefit in improve
ment of harbors, etc. Both sectional
and class taxation are obnoxious to
the principles OF Democracy, but the
design to tax luxuries has never been
considered malevolent or contrary to
sound principles Of equality IN taxa.
ton. AS an abstract principle it may
not be fair to tax luxuries more

The aggregate amount of anthracite
coal was 43,OS9, $50 tons, which is an
increase OF l,l98,2l3 tOus over the
year 1892. The increase OF bituminous
coal is about the same.
The coal industry in Texas is prac-
ticalIy nothing now to what it will be
when the hidden fields are in active
operation. But even as it now stands,
Texas last year produced 302, 1856 tons
valued at $GSS, 267, which is more than
one would expect from an industry as
yet in its incipiency. When the Texas
coal industry gets fully developed it
will doubtless prove the great state in
that product, as in all others.

Prominent Republican Congress
men are in favor of the creation of
a National commission represent
ing all parties, to consider the ques-
ton of restricting immigration to
this country, The Republican par
ty is responsible for the presence
here of that vicious and ignorant
class of foreigners that are contin-
ually engaging in strikes and are
enemies to society, The tariff laws
enacted by Republican Congresses
encouraged the importation of this
labor, and now such statesmen as
Reed, Dolliver anb Cannon seek to
evade party responsibility for the
immigration of these anarchists to
the United States by suggesting
the appointment of non-partisan
commission to deal with the ques-
tion. They want broad, restrictive
measures enacted without excite
ment of party animosities. They
are unwilling TO engage in a dis
cussion of the immigration question
from the standpoint, fearing fur

AT the present time it appears
that the Arkansas Republicans and
Populist are of the opinion that no
combination can defeat the Demo
cracy of this State. Neither of
these parties, however, has held its
convention, and both will stand a
good deal of watching, If there is
any possible chance for them to
get together they will not loose
sight of the opportunity. Mean
while there should be 4 Democratic
club organized in every township in
the State, and preparations made
to meet the enemy in any shape he
may present himself. -[Arkansas

The Gazette is eminently correct
