These Democratic senators seem
to he talking against time to
prevent any further conversions
to Mckinley through the mis-
sionary efforts of the Republican
senatnrs. The alarm is natural.
Some of the coun ty committees
would like to put Matlock on pro-
baton before admitting him to full
membership in the Democratic
church of Texas. This is the out
come of his eating humble pie.
The beginning of the end of the
Coxey foolishness came when the
railroads denied transportation,
and the state and national author
tiles backed up the refusal with
their forces and the courts.
No real friend of San Antonio
will throw straw in the way OF
any railroad project that is in
hands and reasonably promises to
become a success. This city wants
moro railway connections.
The ladies of Lexington are in
arms against the denomination OF
Breckenridge and will use all the
influence of the home and the
church to prevent it. The preachers
are with them every time.
Wilson, author of the tariff bill,
returns to Washington ready to &C
cept the measure as it will come
from the hands of the Senate. Mr.
Wilson knows it is that or nc
tariff law this session.
Noon wishes Kelly's fiat boats
any worse disaster than a snagging

aster as will keep the army from
rusting on the voyage.
The Republicans of Texas ar,
not looking to fusion in state mat
tiers, unless they desire worst
confusion in their own case thar

their action in 1892.
1t is not the good sense Of tn

wool and cotton and cattle growers

The rain of last night and yes
terday covered almost all the ex
tent of territory known as South
west Texas. 1t came nearer beini
general rain than any that ha
fallen this year.
The coast country west of VictC
ria was as dry as the region aroun
this city, but the late rains put
veto on the drouth, and the smil
of the market gardener in that re
gion broadens.

SATURDAY, MAY II, 1894.

The advocates of reinsurance
harp upon the increased fire waste
IN Texas as reason for their &C
tion, and complain that the state
is In far worse condition as to ratio
of losses to insurance than in the
majority of the other states. Ken
lucky, Minnesota, Missouri, Mary
land, Massachusetts, New York,
North Carolina, North Dakota,
New Mexico, Rhode Island, Yer
mont, Virginia, West Virginia,
Wisconsin and Tennessee all have
a loss rate greater than that OF
Texas. The average losses for the
forty-two states and territories, the
schedules Of which are given in the
Underwater and which form the
basis of this comparison, are 60 as
against 66 for Texas, showing that
the state is very little above the
average of the country in the mat
ter of fire losses, which range from
40 to $50. Some other reason than
this must be advanced for this at.
tempt to defraud the insured out
of their protection.

Senator Murphy, of Troy, the
cuff and collar center of the United
States, secures ample protection
against the importation of his
special industry. Troy has no
wooden horse in Murphy, nor
head either. One by one these Demo
cratic senators are falling into
line for the protection of the in.
dustries of their several states,
Texas alone holds out and insists
that free everything in all that
Texas raises shall be the order,
free wool, free hides, free cattle,
free cotton and free fighting.

Co-insurance will be abolished
or the companies that retain the
clause will go out of business. A
grist of local companies will be
organized all over the state that
will soon pool their issues so as to
give effective protection to the

April q, 1894.
W. s. Swymmer-Dear Sir:
For the past twenty years my wife has suf.
fered with complication of troubles-heart
disease, liver complaint, gastritis of the
stomach, also kidney and spinal affection.
She has been treated by fifteen physicians
during that time without any relief, On the
10th of last February she commenced using
the Electropoise and quit using medicine.
She has gained twelve pounds in weight and
her health is better than it has been for
years. think the Electropoise is the grand
est instrument that God has ever given the
people to heal the sick. They ought to be in
every family, and if there is any person who
values the little doctor any more than do:
shall he glad to hear from him. God bless the
the man who introduced the Electropoise.
Yours truly,
JASPER WAGGONER.

Small Profit Prices, which means in
plain English that there is no such
thing as just the same goods for less

realizes it; hence our increased bust

buyers, those that appreciate the
best goods fer the least money, are
