A HARD ROW AHEAD.

Mr., Culberson will not find bed OF
roses at the state capitol when he gets
there. He will be confronted by q
large deficiency in the revenues nec-
essary to support the state govern
ment and it will require a bold man
to recommend an increase in taxa
ton. 1t is the very thing Mr.. CulOer-
son will be compelled to do. There is
no honorable way Of avoiding the con,
dition of affairs he will find at the
capitol. A strong man is always
willing to meet such responsibility
1t is only the demagogue to whom it
has any terrors.
Seeond-class two.by four politicians
often retain the superintend'
ency of state eleemosynary insti-
buttons by reducing expenses at the
cost of the inmates; that is to say, hall
starving them. They belong to the
same class who in higher positions
lAO 1CuUSbIOh VA h"AO6
when they know the deficiency will
fall upon the shoulders of their sue
cessors in office.
Mr.. Culberson, we do not believe,
belongs to any such class of econo-
mists. Neither do we believe in ex-
travagance, but we do believe that
taxes ought to be high enough to
meet the wants of the state and pre-
vent q deficiency, which we do
aot regard, as some others
do, as an unmixed blessing We
do however abominate the littleness
of an administration that seeks pop
ularity by lowering taxes so that the
state employees will suffer and the
state heneticiaries be skimped and
half starved. We are sure that Mr.
Culberson will meet these response
bilities with liberality and intelli-
gent prudence that is characteristic
of genuine craftsmanship.

CLEVELAND'S BRAVE UTTER

for itself, and it is entirely consistent
with the manly and open course of the
president on every public question des
mauding his action. The treason Of
Democrats TO their party is scorched
with burning words OF reproach,
while at the same time he has the
courage to assume the responsibilities
of the Democratic party.
While Mr. Cleveland could not con-
scientiously approve by his signature
of some of the measures OF the senate
tariff his letter was written to assure
the party that he did not feel that he
was any better than his parCy which
was compelled to yield to the inevi-
table. He says, II take my place

the fact that the livery OF Democratic
reform has been stolen and Worn in
the service of Republican protection,
who have marked the places where
the deadly blight Of treason has blast
ed the counsels of the brave in their

Mr.. Cleveland does not hesitate 10
disapprove of all acts of this party in

promises, but he is stil] hopeful that
the principle OF free raw material will
be attained for the benefit of the
country by the Democratic party
when the traitors are eliminated from
its counsels. While Mr.. Cleveland is
not greater than his party it is a great
pity that members high in thel coun-
sells of the party were not as true and
consistent as he is to Democratic

A Peculiar Type Of Malaria-Pe ru ms

One of the most pernicious forms OF
malaria has come to be known in
many localities as low fever or ty-
phoid malaria. This disease, with
the ordinary methods OF treatment, is
very Stubborn affection, and
lasts from 80 to 60 days. Per-
haps the majority of the patients are
onfned to the house, and some even
o their beds, during the course OF the
disease. In localities where Pe'ru-na

in such an event to tell the fellows
who were prominent in this conyen-
ton that endorsed Major Hutch =
son that they have sent one
of the most bitter enemies OF
the Republican party, a Populist, 10
congress to fight Republican meas
ures and to attempt to establish here
sizes of government that the RepuDli-
can party of the United States are
radically opposed to, and when any
one of these fellows steps up tothe pie
counter he will be peremptorily or
dered off and told to go and grsze IN
the Populist fields.
For men who are endowed with
sense and political sagacity, the fe>
publican convention which assembled
here on Saturday did the most foolish
thing that they could possibly nave
done. They actually committed po'
litical suicide.
Certainly they can have no hope
for state offices, but if they mad not
endorsed Major Hutchinson and cut
themselves off from the organization
and sympathy of the national Kepuo'
licans they might have justly enter
tanned hope for federal offices
That was their only hope and
they have deliberately dashed that
cup from their lips to the ground.
Tbs Republican party opposes the
Populist schemes of finance with
even more ardor than the Democrats
do. The Republican party opposes
the ownership of railroads, teie-
graphs. etc. but these fellows have
insulted them by indorsing man
who will 60 to congress, if he goes, to
antagonize the Republican party
principles ard policies. Do the Re-
publicans of this district imagine that
O Republican national administration
would condone such an oHense and
pocket such an insult and then invite
these very men who have been guilty
of it to come in and select the best
offices in the land? If they think 80
they are mistaken. If they elect
Major Hutchison, Populist, to con"
gress the national Republican party
will never forgive them.
But, they say, they do not need the
advice of THE STATESMAN. Well, The
ia giving them no advice,
The STATESMAN just records a matter
of news that they have committed
political suicide, but it is their funeral
and not THE STATEsNIAN's.
We do not think even with their aid
that Major Hutchinson will be elected,
but even if he is not, THE STATESMAN
will take pleasure at the proper time
to call the attention of the national
to the fact that these Tel'
lows in this district tried to elect a
man more opposed to the politics OF
the National Repu blican party than
any Democrat; that these fellows in
this district tried to inject discord in.

South Carolina Elections,

COLUMBIA, S. G., Aug. 2S.-Returns

only about a twosthirds vote was

Tillman carries every county with the

overwhelmingly for Tillman for United

THE RESOLUTIONS
Adopted by the State Summer Normal Board
Of Examiners.

Adopted by the State Summer Normal Board
Of Examiners.
The State Summer normal board
examiners have concluded their Ia.
bors and left for their respective
homes. Prior to their adjournment
Monday they passed the following
resolutions:
First-The state needs the summer
normals as they now exist, supple.
mented by other and kindred schools.
and that we are by no means ready to
abandon these schools or to substitute
others for them.
Second-That professional schools
should be located in different sections
of Texas, to provide higher profess
sional work than can be done at the
regular summer normals.
Third-That in our opinion the col
leges and universities, both demon.
national and state, ought to open
their doors for summer normal work.
Fourth-That eight weeks schools
show by the result of their examina-
tion that they have won their right to
exist by the good they do, and that
they should be encouraged.
Fifth-That the state should be dis
tricted for summer normal purposes
by commission of 10 nheu, one chosen
from each congressional district, and
two at large, and that appropriations
should be made by the Legislature Hl-
the expense of such commission IL NJ
Sixth-That every legitimate
ducement should be given teachersE
attend these summer schools, and
that the normal and county examina-
tions should be uniform.
Seventh-That all cities and towns
be invited and urged to recognize
Summer Normal certificates.
Eighth-That we find that ma.
jority of the teachers fail on the re-
quirements for average, showing that
they either left school too early, or
that they were not taught accurately,
or not taught to express themselves in
writing. In many Instances the papers
show total lack Of training in the
mechanical preparation papers.
Ninth-That it is the sense of this
board that the county permanent Ger
titicate feature of the law should be
repealed, inasmuch as we believe that
the aforesaid provision is in many in
stances abused on account of local
favoritism and influence, which have
thwarted the usefulness of such law.
TeUth-rhat we are indebted to
Hon. j. M. Carlisle for coartesies.
That we remember with pleasure the
attention and kindness of the other
gentlemen in the department Of edu-
capitol management for the use the
senate rooms.
Our thanks are also due the chair
man, K b. Cousins, Secretary T. s..
Cox and to Professor Hammond tot
their faithful work.
