that of Matthew Cowan aud
two new cases. The new case:
were reported to the board of health
this morning as scarlet fever and
are in the family Of Mr.. Moorefield,
at the corner of Ross avenue and
Twelfth streets. They are kinsmen
OF the Berrys, who were first
stricken with the malady. The
house is Jagged and guarded.
Twelve hundred and ninety.nine
new subscribers in sixty days may
not be much increase for great
metropolitan daily, but THE News
submits it as q tirst.class sho wing
for Waco paper. Particularly ia
this a good showing when it is con
sidered that the number of discon.
tinusnces ordered in the same period
has been less than one dozen. There
is no mistake about the people like.
ing a paper which prints the news,
and which has convictions on all
current topics and respectfully and
andidally announces them.
The News is daily growing in
popularity, as is evidenced by our
steadily increasing subscription list.
That it appreciates the favor the
public is showing it is as we'll un.
derstood by it's friends as if we
filled this column with thanks.
But in all kindness and with much
earnestness, we want to say circu-
lating tie large number of papers
which this Office sends out costs
daily a considerable sum of cash
money. AT the beginning of each
month the city circulator goes on
his rounds to collect his numerous
little bills. For him to find and
interview each individual is no
small task, and his time is valuable
TO this office, and to force him to
call SIX or eight times during the
month makes the half dollar cost
this office more than it is worth. 1t
Is the aim of this office to collect
during The month subscriptions for
the current month. Over one.third
OF March is past and one thousand
of our Waco readers have not paid
Tor this month, though many of
them have been politely requested
% TO do;fully five hundred have not
paid for February, though they have
req eatedly promised; while about
.wo hundred are still satisfying the
collector with nice promises for
heir January bills. Cant our
.rlends, in their minds, put them
'elves in our place? If they can
hey will not tell the collector TO
'all again.

hope. awaiting eagerly the moment when il
should assume the power 10 which i had

1888. after less than nine months Of power,
IL ha. little but disappointments and failures
70 dwell upon. From the moment that q
then recent candidate for the Republican
nomination for President was made SecTe-
tary Of State, and an obscure Cracker was
msde Secretary Of the Interior, the record
has been unsatisfactory and weakening 10

some Plain kIoraIs.

IS the close of the yesr approaches
expressions Of relief are heard on every
side. The fact is generally recognized
that 1893 has been a most Disappointing
and dissgreeable year, fraught with bus
iness disaster, shrinkage OF values and
distress. Not since 1857 have the oondi-
tions Of business been involved in as
much uncertainty and confusion. After
twelve months Of anxiety and depTes-
sion all classes N the United States are
awaiting with eagerness the shifting q
the calendar which viii close the record
of a disastrous year Whatever may be
the fortunes Of q neg year the Ameri-
can people can hardly expec. TO accumu-
late during the next twelve months a
stock Of experience equal n value %
what has beea acquired during 1893.
II the two yeass-lSa2 and lS93-be
compared, the sbsFpest possible contrast
viii Re found in the extent 10 which
the American people have been en-
ployed in countless forms Of industry.
Before the election Of President Cleye-
and every factory vas in operation, al
kinds Of business we're brisk, there was
abuoysnt feeling Of confidence peryad-
ing the country. and there Was work fos
everyone who was Ia need Of il. Not
only we're WHgcs and salaries ~ the high
est level known since the civil war, bu,
employment wss constant and for full
tine. In manufacturing towns il seemeS
70 be almost impracticable 10 keep up
with the demands Of trade. Factories
We're running Gay ard night, and notices
were posted at the doors that more help
was wanted. With the election Of Presi-
dent Cleveland and a Democratic Con-
eress came the menace of the reversal Of
all tie policies which had been in contin-
uous operation for thirty years, and 10
which all forms Of industry and business
had been adapted. Factories have been
either closed or are running on half time
or intsrmittently; hundreds Of thous-
ands Of workers are unemployed; wages
have been cut down > TO 20 per cent ;
and feeling Of hopelessness anl desper-
alton IS dominant where a year ago pros
perity, thrift and confidence prevailed.
Tae moral from such radical sransi-
ton as this in the course Of s single year
Is one that cannot be explained away or
misinterpreted. Il points 10 the superb
ority Of any system OF industrial policies
by which the mass Of the population is
provided with steady, remunerative en-
ployment This Is the secret of national
pEosperisy-Eonk for az and chance
for everybody 10 earn living.
There is another plain lessen which

II is admitted that the Wilson tariff
bin wil fall short by S70O00OeO Of rais-
ing revenue sufficient 70 defray the nee
essary expenses Of the government
Having thus deliberately thrown away
that amount Of revenue, which is coilec-
ted without any expense, It Is proposed
10 make good the deficit by imposing q
direct tax on the incomes and estates OF
the thrifty citizens who have accumula-
ted oft Of their earnings a provision for
their old age and for their wives and
children. Having bankrupteG the gov
eminent by partisan free trade policy,
reduced thousands Of our citizens 70 the
condition Of mendicants and taxed the
savings Of the thrifty it is proposed 20
still further mortgage the credit OF the
country By loan Of s350,OO0,O00 to help
make good the deficiency in revenue
caused by the insensate folly Of the party
now in power. Contrast the prosperity
Of the county and Of the people under
thirty years OF Protective tariff, with
the present condition, when charitable
people OF every eammnnity are con-
PEELED Tor bumsnity's sake 10 personally
contribute Of their means in order 10
save from starvation thousands whom
reckless Democratic p2rtisanship has
thrown out Of employment, acd you viii
then have a clear idea Of the change

voting for al the polls in 1892.
