will never forget it," We do not
believe that Judge Nugent believes
any such thing, but he Is only talk
ing to keep up the courage OF his
followers -whistling, as it were,
through political graveyard in
which he and his will all soon be
inferred"
Norton's Union Intelligencer !:
"TeXas politicians would do we'll
to take the speech of Mr.. Schmitz
as a model, both in style and sub.
stance. 1t would be so refreshing
to their auditors to hear some good,
patriotic American doctrine eX-
Pressed in a straightforward COM
nonsense way"
"There were no tattered rem
nants of fossilism, no ravelling of
Populistic nonsense, no demagogue
drivel in the speech Of Hon. j. B.
Schmitz. The Lily Whites are
justly proud Of their candidate for
governor. He spells his name a
little Dramatically, but he talks
like an American, and that's what
he is, and good one, too"
Between the yaller man and the
Democratic politician there are Of
ten stronger ties than some people
are aware Of"
Abilene Reporter: "The Popu-
lists, as is but natural, are holding
the Democratic party responsible
for all the ills of the present hard
times, referring to which the Fort
Worth Mail-Telegram very logic
ally observes: would it not be
just as we'll to hold also the Dem
ocrats responsible for the present
high prices of oats and corn" II
not, why not? Let Populists an
swer."
Texas Miner: "Nugent is after
the Democratic platform in good
shape. He discussed the ninth and
tenth planks of the Dallas plat
form and ridIculed the Democratic
speakers for their division on the
silver question, saying they were
engaged in political juggling SIM
ply to get votes, Culberson taking
one position on this subject and
George Clark and Mills just the OPP
posite."
Paris Advocate: "The Austin
Statesman thinks there is a chance
for the Populist to win in the year
1000 if they last that long. Such
remarks are discouraging to the
patriots who are in it for office.
They are liable to make them give
up the chase and vote for honest
government"
Castroville Anvil: ave commend
the following pertinent and sem
sible remark by the Augusta, Ga,
Chronicle, to the Hon. A. w. Hous-
ton: The curse of politics and the
confusion of parties comes from an
effort to dodge issues instead of
frankly meeting Them"
Tyler Democratic Reporter: "a
few men in Texas, clai ming to be
Democrats, but who evidently had
rather disrupt the party than to
see it succeed, are insisting upon
the discussion of the silver ques-
ton to the exclusion of everything
else and at the expense of every
thing else.

day, and is now on his way TO Fayette-
vile with the prisoners. The authorities
fear an attempt will be made TO rescue

The Carnegie Company Said to Be the
Victim of Conspiracy.
PITTsBURG, March 4.-The Times to-
morrow will say that the Carnegie Steel
Company has permitted itself to be made
the victim of a conspiracy. This is the
true explanation of the assessing of $780,,
4S9 damages, or fine. laid by President
Cleveland and Secretary of the Navy
Herbert against the company for furnish
ing the Government with armor plate,
portions of which, to quote Secretary
Herbert, were not up to the highest pos
sble mark of excellence.
The conspiratOrs were four, all we'll
known workmen. The price they re-
ceived as a reward for their conspiracy
was about S35, 900. or % per cent. of the
damage assessment made by President
Cleveland. One Of the cOnspirators, who
got but $1,000 out of the $4,000 reward,
learning that he had gotten the short
end" of the deal, gave expression to his
feelings, and skillful questioning brought
out the entire story. The article says
further that the conspirators substituted
defective armor for the first-class armor
which the company intended should be
furnished the Government.

LONDON, March 4.-Mr. Gladstone to-
day wrote to Earl Rosebery congratu-
! lating him upon his accession to the Pre-
miership. In his letter Mr.. Gladstone
promised to aid the new Prime Minister
whenever his assistance was asked. 1t is
understood that Rosebery's communica-
ton to Sir William Vernon Harcourt
has resulted in the latter consenting to re-
tain his position as Chancellor of the Ex
chequer, and the keeping of the Govern
ment leadership in the House of Com
mons. Lord Rosebery was busily en-
gagged all day. Herber Asquith, Home
Secretary, and Earl Spencer, First Lord
of the Admiralty, visited him and re-
manned for time. Afterward Rosebery
called upon the Earl of Kimberly and Of
tered him the post of Foreign Secretary.
Lord Rosebery has been the recipient
! of many congratulatory letters and dis
patches. Among those who telegraphed
were the Prince and Princess of Wales.
Hundreds of letters and kilograms ex-
pressing regret because of his retirement
| from office were received by Mr.. Glad
stone. The ex-Prime Minister attended
| church twice to-day. He looked remark
|
entirely recovered from her recent indis-
! position.
The Nationalists propose to present Mr..
Gladstone an address in recognition Of the
great services that he has rendered to the
| Irish cause.
| A speech from the throne proroguing
! Parliament was signed by the Queen
Yesterday. The speech is the last official
document prepared by Mr.. Gladstone.
| 1t briefly refers to the protracted and
| laborious character of the session.
| 1t is stated that Mr.. and Mrs. Glad
| stone will go on Tuesday to Brighton,
and that they will spend Easter at Ha-
warden Castle.
Prime Minister Rosebery held his first
cabinet council this afternoon. All the
Ministers were present except Mr..
Asquith and Henry Fowler, President of
the local Government Board. Upon its
conclusion Lord Rosebery sent a mes
| sage to the Queen, submitting the names
of the members OF the new cabinet.
Interviews had to-day by representa-
tive of the Associated Press with leading
members of the House of Commons show
that while section of the Radicals con-
tinue to strongly resent the selection of
! Lord Rosebery as Gladstone's successor,
there is large preponderance of
| Liberals who favor accepting Lord Rose
| berry. Labouchere continues to lead the
| irreconcilables. He hints that they will
soon find an opportunity to protest in
practical form in the House of Commons
against the selection of Rosebery.

SAN BERNARDINo, March 4.-To-day
was the first Sunday in which the ordi-

went into effect. So far as known, the
ordinance was universally obeyed, and
Sunday was observed as a holiday. Early
in the morning large number of people
were on the business streets to see
whether the stores and other places of
business would open or not in accord
ance with certain rumorS that they would
open. Quite large sum of money has
been raised to test the validity of the or
dinance, but so far the legal advisers have
not decided how or when to make up the
case. There is talk of arresting the head
officers of the gas company, who have to
make gas on Sundays to keep up the re-
quisite pressure, and there was also talk
to-day of making case against church
officers who take up collections in church,
as being in violation OF the ordinance.
