THE TEN ~ IDEA,

Texas. under the leadership OF Governor
Hogg, has made a creditable record Ioi
herself in the way that she has turheu
her back upon violence and laWlessheSS'
Rut while doing herself such credit by
this course. she seems determined to
lead all of the States in Populistic IN
yasion of property rights and absurd IN
references with the natural laws OF
business and trade She has passed a
statute which would seem 10 completely
discount even the absurd anti-monopolist
act that Mr.. Saunders, OF Franklin couA-
~. so persistently pressed upon Virginia $
LEGISLATION nearly three years ago. The
Galveston Daily News says Of 1t; Every
mercantile firm that agrees to mark goods
either ND or down is liable TO prosecution
for felony under the Texas trust law. II
two mariners agree TO increase or reduce
the price of merchandise, they are felOns
under theis act" 1t adds: Lovers en-
Gagged TO marry are guilty Of the con-
spiracy against which this great piece of
legislation so rigidly provides. Lovers
who dare wed become an unlawful COM
bination and a merciless trust under this
socialistic expression of freedom and jus
tice. Both Of these propositions are clearly
true. because il cannot be disputed that
engagements and weddings must either
increase or diminish the demand for va
rious kinds OF merchandise and produce

. Last week a gentleman In our Office was
lamenting the gloomy future Of trade in
the United States; not the immediate fl-
ture-it was conceded that that would be
dGu except IN favored localities-but the
general and more remote prospects Of
trade he thought were not at all encour-
aging
We could not agree with him, and stated
then as we do now, that If the United
States could shake off the shackles which
have been riveted on the trade Of its
people by the iniquitous theory and prac-
tice OF protection put on them by the Re-
publican party. and which il seems i'm
possible to break off. the people of this
country would embark upon a career OF
prosperity which would amaze not only
the rest of the world, but themselves
Among other sources OF wealth IN which
we could surpass the world, and which has
heretofore been the keystone OF the pro-

on sunday last the New York sun pup
,,shad az n part OF its weekly London
letter the following confirmation Oh our
views on the iron question;
There was a mournful meeting OF the
Mlddlesborough Chamber OF Cof'i the sr o'
nursdav. IL seems that one OF the large
cleveland iron firms sent a special agent
Ia the United States TO find out WY
the export OF British pig iron ana pipes
had ceased 20 be profitable. ana at lhurs-
DAYS meeting President Johnson read
letter from that gentleman when cast

WHAT SILVER LIE ILArION DID.

one Of the most certain evidences that
the panic the country lately suffered from
was due to silver legislation is the course
that payments of the revenue at New
York city have taken. In October, lS'1,
which was only three months after the
Sherman law was passed, and before its
evil Influences had begun TO be felt 81
per cent Of the customs payments at
New York city were in gold. As the
sherman law began To get in is work.
gold payments of the revenue fell of until
they disappeared entirely. They had fallen
from 50 per cent. in October 1880. to ~ per
cent in October, 1891, TO per cent. in
October 1892, and are less than one-tenth
Of l per cent, Of the revenues now being
paid. Tut the present small gold pay
ments are completely compensated for in
anot her way In the first ten DAYS Of
the present month 30 per cent Of the rev.
enue was paid in greenbacks, and 70 Der
cent. in the sherman Treasury notes.
both Of which are convertible into cold
upon demand on the Government. and are
therefore. substantially gold payments.
We are thus shown how the silver lcgis-
lation broke down confidence and brought
on the panic and how the repeal Of it
AT once revived confidence and brought
about a restoration of the condition Of
things that existed before the unwise
legislation was adopted.
