Library took place at Stow, Mass. Thurs
day, a large number of the tOwnspeople and
visitors from naighboring towns being pres
ent. The building is of pressed brick, with

slated roof. Memorial tablets in the vesti-
bule contain the names of the citizens of
Stow who served in the wars of the Rebel
lion and Revolution. The book room has
shelf room for 10 900 volumes. The build
ing and land cost little over $4,000 and
il the gift of the late DR.. John w. Randall
native of Boston, who bequeathed the
town $50 ,00O-S25 900 to be devoted to a
public library, Sl0,O00 to the worthy poor
and $50 coo for other purposes. DR.. Ran
dali died before making his will, but his
sister. who inherited bis property, knowing
his wishes in regard to the matter, carried
them out, the town reap.ng the benefit.

Leaves have their time to fall
And flowers to fade,
Before the northwind's breath,
But all, all, are thy seasons, oh
death"
The late Hamilton Stuart, the oldest
and best beloved member of the press OF
Texas, for long time the author OF
estate Press" in the Galveston News, is
no more. Mr.. Stuart was model man
and a model editor. He has been con-
ncctcd with the Texas Press ever since
the very origin of the "Republic," or the
Lone Star State" and has contributed
nightly to the elevation and purity OF
the press of this state. He was critic
with no gall in his pen towards the merl-
torious, but an iconOclast to ShamS and
humbugs. He was man loyal to every
obligation and an editor as reliable as a
clock. He died in harness as all true
and brave men love to die. There are
very few old men left on the press OF the
state. They are fast passing away and
this death of the "Father of the press OF
Texas" reminds those who are left that
their days are numbered and rapidly
drawing to close upon the stage of
worldly action. 1t ought to be an incent-
i've to each one of them to use the "tal-
ents" left in their hands to the very best
profit of their kind, so that they will not
1, 10
them in a napkin and buried them in the
earth"
The man who writes for the public eye
and understanding has written in vain,
if, when he lays down his pen, he is not
consoled by the thought that he has
scattered seed here and there that may
grow into a tree with its leaves for the
healing of human woes, the relief of ig-
norancc and the cure of superstition.
No man ought to write for the public with
Il less noble purpose. Alas, many of us
fail and come short of that high accom-
plishmcnt, but the very spirit that man
ifests such motive inspires the weak
est efforts.
Well may such an editor as the late
Hamilton Stuart gather the drapery of
his dying couch about him, consoled by
the reflection that he has done his whole
duty in his high place and that he crosses
the river fully trained and prepared to
take up the higher duties that have been
awaiting him before the world was, or
even the morning stars sang together.
Son of genius, tread softly DER his ashes,
for he was thy brother. Scholar and pa
triot, uncover rs his funeral pageant
passes, for he was thy teacher and leader
Peace to his great and noble soul.
The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1894-11-22
THE EXPECTED HAPPENED.

That the Republicans would carry the
Northern elections this year was gcner-
ally expected, but the extent of the vic
tory was not anticipated. Now that the
results are before us, we can easily dis
Germ the causes of the tidal wave that
has overwhelmed the Democratic party
in so many different places. The imam
cial panic of last year, although prime
factor in the case is not sufficient alone
to account for it. Business depression,
whatever may be its cause, always tells
against the party in power. But in the
present case n deeper gloom was added
by the scandals connected with tariff
legislation in congress which filled the
friends of the Wilson bill with rage and
Indignation to nearly as great an extent
as its enemies. The spectacle presented
to the country for weeks together of 4
Democratic combine" in the senate,
fighting against their own party in the
interest of the sugar trust and other hate
full monOpolies, and actually forcing their
measure upon both senate and house,
was sufficient to take the heart out of the
decent members of the party. To crown
all. the bill that was finally passed was so
bad that the president would not sign it.
We have no fear of Il new Mckinley tar
if in consequence of this election. No
rcactionary tariff bill can become law.
in any case, within three years. and dur
ing that time the present law will have
created business conditions powerfully
opposed To MckinleyiSm. Moreover. the
Republican leaders are wiser than they
were when the Mckinley bill was passed.
They know that it is just as easy to turn
the country over against themselves us
it was in 1S90-just as easy as it was to
turn it over this year.-The Nation.
The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1894-11-22

An editor works 800 days counting
extra night work. per year to get out %
issues of his p0per-that's labor. Once
and Il while u subscriber pays his sub
scription-that'S business and is appreci-
atcd. Occasionally some dcad-bcat will
take the paper year or more and vanish
without paying for it-thats mean, but
later on justice will ovcrtake this named
animal-callcd man-and there is place
where he will get his just deserts that's
hcll.-Dubln Leader.
oh. fie, brother, don't overcrowd the
lower regions. If You send every dclin-
qucnt subscriber to that place there won't
bc room for the real bad people You
know if man had borrowed Il dollar
from his friend when he was in town and
happened TO break he would hasten to
return it when lac got home, but if he had
subscribed and read paper for several
years that subscription would be the very
last debt he would pay. 1t has become
unfortunately such habit to postpone
paying for the weekly paper that the sub
Scrihcrs have forgotten it is not honest.
The paper has been more valuable to you
than the dollar borrowed from a friend.
Send the subscription price TO the pro-
prctor of the newspaper and sleep with
out disturbing conscience.

TENNESSEE LYNCHERS' CASE.


Memphis, Tenn. Nov. 19.-The prose-
cution of Ned w. Smith and w. s. Rich
ardson, charged with the lynching of six
negroes near Millington, has received Il
severe setback today. Butch McCar-
yer went on the stand and stated that
he is an intidel and was therefore incOm-
petent under the laws of Tennessee to
give testimony. Butch McCarver is the
man upon whom the state most relied
for testimony, as he was invited pre-
Yious to the occurrence to take hand in
it. The prosecution openly charged that
McCarver perjured himself when he said
he did not believe in God and that he
regarded human beings as hogs or cows.
When he was first taken before the grand
jury about the lynching he denied having
heard anything and it was only when he
was confronted by indisputable proof,
that he would confess. Then he went OF
and told everything he knew, which was
considered by the attorney general as
sufficient to hang the two men on trial.
as well as three or four others. lmme-
diately after McCarver's sensational
statement to the court today he was ar
rested on a bench warrant, charging per-
jury. 1t is also given out by Attorney
General Patterson that he will proceed
against A. J. McCarver, the sheriff of
this county. and the father of Butch, to
remove him from office.

received. While it is believed to be lit
orally true so far as Japan answering by
positive acceptance or refusal of the sug-
gestlon, yet those well informed on the
subject say Japan has made he position
known to this government in such way
as to avoid the embarrassments of a pos
tive declination and yet to show that
an acceptance would have to be based on
certain definite conditions. 1t is said
that Japan could state this position with
such expressions of good will for the
kindly motive of the United States and
such hopes that the time may come in
the future when the good offices of this
country would be most acceptable, that
it would i'll no case cause friction, but
would rather increase the good feeling
between Japan and this country.
The statement was made in congress
sional circles today that President Cleve-
lands coming message to congress would
throw light on the China-Japan quest
ton and would forestall any question of
inquiry. AS the secretary of state, UNI
like other cabinet officers, makes no an
nual report to congress, the president S
message ordinarily deals fully with for
eign affairs in which this government
has any part, and as the recent negotia-
tons with China and Japan are the most
important foreign questions the depart
ment has handled in some time, it is con-
cluded that Mr.. Cleveland will make
clear the position of this government. Up
to the present time there is no official
information upon the subject and the
state department has not even stated
officially that negotiations with Japan
and China are in progress.
The reading of the presidents mes
sage is the first business of congress-, so
that it would precede the contemplated
introduction of resolutions of inquiry by
Representative Bellamy Storer. 1t is
the belief of those familiar with Presi-
dent Cleveland's position against foreign
entanglements that such reference as
he may make to the subject will be on
the ground of humanity, urging that
while this government did not believe in
conquest and acquisition it can well
adopt an enlightened policy which will
aid in maintaining the peace and prog
ress of the world. 1t is believed that the
essential condition on which Japan
would consent to any mediation is that
China will raise the white flag of truce,
the emblem recognized the world over
as an indication that contestant wants
to treat for terms of peace. China has
not yet made any direct offer to Japan
roundabout offers which overlook the
recognized international emblem of the
white flag. The reports that Japan
would demand surrender of the entire
Chinese fleet and the cession of several
Chinese ports, pending the payment of
indemnity, is not credited here. 1t is
pointed out that these reports come from
diplomatic sources at Shanghai where
as, the diplomats in China are at Pekin
or Ten Tsin. While such a surrender of
fleet and ports might ultimately be de-
manded, it is pointed out that they
would be contingencies to follow the first
essential of Chinese raising the white
flag of truce.

The Indianapolis Sentinel had these
brave and truthful editorial words of COM
mendaton of Congressman Wilson and
the cause for which he was slaughtered:
"There are few of the results of the re-
cent folly of the people that will cause
more general regret than the defeat of
Chairman Wilson of West Virginia. In
certain sense the campaign in his dis
trict was Il national fight, but more than
that it was Il fight of the most selfish and
corrupt influences against Il man of the
highest character ana attainments be-
cause he had done his duty. His is an
other name added to the list of personal
victims of protected capital. He is an
other true representative of the people
who has been followed to his home by the
emissaries of class interest and there
struck down as an example to those who
follow him of the dangers of standing for
the masses against the privileges of the
classes"
The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1894-11-22

A number of large flour mills are shut
ting down for the ostensible reason that
an oversupply is chcapening wheat. There
can be no such thing as an over produc-
ton of breadstuffs as long as men, wo-
men and children anywhere on the hab-
table globe are hungry and begging bread.
The law of supply and demand may be
as memorable as Napoleon Bonaparte
was when he caught an otherwise good
soldier asleep on guard, but there are eX-
ceptions when you come to the nccessarics
of life. Necessity breaks all rules as this
soldier did, and he ought not to have been
shot.

r,1p SOLID SOUTH BROKEN.

The wise old fable of the traveller ana
his cloak is beautifully illustrated by the
break-up of tho solid South. AS long aS
the storm beat upon him the tra'eiet
folded his cloak about him the closer but
when the sun came out he loosened IT,
and at last cast it aside. 1t was the
same way with the sold South. AS long
AS it was beat upon by federal electioh
laws the tighter it chung to its Democrat
10 cloak. 1t is almost ludicrous now 10
think that the repeal of those, laws des-
perately opposed by the Republican par
ty and was hailed by the Democratic
party as a great victory. IL is no" cleal
that the repeal loosened the hold OF the
Democratic party on the South. New is
sues obtained hearing, and as result
the solid South is gone. The truth Is
that for years past the South has Oeeh
kent solid by the mistaken policy OF the
Republican party, and by repeating tne
federal election laws the Democratic
party did the Republicans a service
whose benefits are now disclosed so con
spicuously that we have doubtless heard
the last of force bills-Pittsburgh
acknowledgement Wcp)
If this Republican journal speaks 10y
the card no one will rejoice more than
Southern people over the break IN the
solid South. If it shall turn out that we
will hear no more forever OF the force
bills" then have we cheaply bought by
this temporary break a surcease from
much sorrow. But if Republicans pro-
pose to hold over our heads as perpetu-
al menace, a force bill unless we stay
broken, then it will be seen that the
Southern people can be easier led thah
driven and they will brush away the pet
tp things that have for time held them
apart and will come together with an IT.
resistible impulse that will carry every
thing before it, also making any idea OF
a force bill wholly ludicrous.

The Taylor Texan printed last week Il
16-page folio containing an elaborate
write up" and many illustrations Of
Williamson county, Georgetown and the
young city of Taylor. The little city of
Taylor has had slow but healthy growth
and is rapidly assuming the architecture
and business habits of real live city,
little but loud, diminutive but deemed
determined" The public school buildings
of Taylor and Georgetown are very hand
some structures, worthy of any city. The
Wilson's, l.. o. and ii. T., are giving Tay-
lor a good newspaper and if encouraged
according to its deserts the Taylor Texan
will aid the city very much in its growth.
Every citizen with enterprise will hold NJ
the hands of the local paper il it mani

THE NEWS IN WASHINGTON.

= Washington. Nov 19.-Count Revent-
low, the Danish minister, first heard of
the action of Denmark in excluding Amer
lean beefs through the Associated Press
cablegram from Copenhagen. The count
expressed surprise, Us no action in that
line had heretofore been contemplated.
He said the action was probably due to n
request from Germany, as American beef
received at Danish ports frequently would
find its way into Germany and thus over
come the German restriction Count
Revcntlow SAYS Denmark uses very little
American beef or meat products. He had
never heard that any of the American pro-
duct in Denmark was affected with Texas
fever. Under these circumstances he
feels that the action of Denmark is not
so much aimed against the United States
as it is to make Denmark's neighbOr, Ger
many, effective in her exclusion. The
minister has as yet received no official
advices on the subject .....
