John Bull is greatly stirred UP
over the arrest OF Queen Lii, and
will interpose the good offices Of
the government for her release.
John had better give her an asy'
lum.
Cleveland's currency bill has not
the exclusive right Of way in Con
gress. Tom Reed is patching up
one OF his own, and it may play a
part in the temporary settlement
Of the matter.
There is nothing in the recent
news from Newfoundland to indi-
cate that the rulers of that province
have found any remedy for either
their financial or their political
troubles.
Missouri is in a state Of mind,
judging from the way in which
her representatives in Congress go
for each others anatomy. That
state is in a transition state and
all mixed up with herself.
The unwelcome news of threat
ened strikes comes over the wires,
here and there. All such attempts
to better condition only end in
more distress and greater trouble
to those who attempt them.
Martial law was only needed a
little while in Hawaii. The rebel
lion was a complete fiasco. There
is no prospect Of Cleveland finding
a welcome there by the restored
Lii when he leaves Washington.
There will be one more mistake
added to those of Grover if Free
Trade. Wilson is given a place on
the bench. Then it would be cruel
to him to put him in such SUI
perior company as to brains.
The weather clerk has not yet
learned how to send the moisture
down in sheets, but he is getting
his hand in. A few more trials
and the skies will be as fearful as
a spoiled child after spank.

Temple Tribune rejoices in the
prospects of salvation held out to
San Antonio as the result OF
Dwight l.. Moody's visit to this
city. San Antonio undoubtedly
welcomes Mr.. Moody, as she always
does every one who behaves them
selves, but she is not 80 much in
need Of salvation as Temple seems
to think. She is carrying dead
load Of political rottenness it is
true, and if Moody can unload this
he will be one Of the modern Her.

is a model town. You could cut
her up into dozen towns the size
Of Temple and each particular Sec
ton would be found to contain
more real piety than the city of
Temple ever dreamed of possess
lug. Sam Jones always was puz.
zled to know what he should do
here. The average piety was so
far above his own.

The grand jury that Investigated
those outrages on the poor prison
ers in the convict chain gang at
Savannah, Georgia, have not one
word of condemnation for the out
rage perpetrated, only recommend
that convicts be exempted from
working in the wet in cold weather
and that humane officers be ap-
pointed to supervise their work
with more discretionary powers
than at present given. This is
roaring gently as sucking dove,
with a vengeance. Mans inhu-
mainly to man does not phase that
crowd who formed the Savannah
grand jury.

Those residents of the city who

WASHINGTON AND AUSTIN.

Notes of Proceedings in the State
and National Legislatures
The Senate got into a wrangle
during debate on District of Col
umbia appropriation over an
amendment offered by McLauren
to coin $50, 900, 900 silver seigniorage
out Of which the appropriations for
the District of Columbia should be
paid. The amendment was de-
feated.
District of Columbia bill passed
and Senate adjourned.
HOUSE.
House passes several personal
bills by general consent and takes
up the new currency bill, to au-
thorize the Secretary oflthe Treas
ury to issue bonds sufficient to
maintain the gold reserve and re-
deem and restore united States
notes. The debate was opened by
Springer who championed the bill
and after an interruption by Jerry
Simpson and dissent from Cox
and Hall, Reed took the floor. He
arraigned the treasury manage
ment for letting the business end
Of the treasury interfere with the
banking end. The business end
had fallen behind owing to Con.
gress cutting down revenues and
they had supplied this deficiency
out Of the banking end, thus prac.
tically furnishing gold to all
the world. He argued that there
could be no radical legislation on
eve of an adjournment and that all
that could be done was to tide mat.

the treasury had any surplus he
should use it instead OF
issuing long time bonds is.
sue certificates redeemable at
any time. Mr.. Reed then sent w
to the desk his bill embodying his
views:
Section l Of Mr.. Reeds bill au.
thorizes the Secretary of the Treas
ury to issue 3 per cent bonds pay
able after five years, similar to the
| bonds issued under the resumption
act. 1t is substantially similar to
Mr.. Sherman's bill introduced in
the Senate.
Section 2 embodies the new
phase introduced by Mr.. Reed and
is as follows:
"That to enable the Secretary o.
the Treasury to pay the current
expenses OF the government sc
long as the current revenues shall
be deficient he is authorized and
required from time to time, at his
discretion, to issue sell and dispose

The last National Woman's Suf-
frage convention took a new de-

When women get down to doing
business behind closed doors and
keep their mouths shut after the
adjournment, there is hope for

Tally one for the Houston Post.
1t says "The present law in Texas
permits a girl to consent to her
own ruin, but 1t draws the line
against her marriage" This is the
truth in a nut shell. She is not
competent to marry or pay her
bills, but she is competent to de-
eide on the great question OF her
own priceless womanhood, before
she has reached anything like the
years of discretion. Shame,

The returns are coming in as to
some OF those reported outrages by
Ih9 Turkish soldiers, and they
prove that the tuneful liar has not
forgotten his vocation in that land
Of turbans and treachery. The
mournful story that was circulat-
ed a few weeks ago, by student
from an Armenian college, as to
the outrages committed and the
dragging away Of a score of stu
dents, is pronounced false by Min.
lister Terrell, who has been making
investigation. That student was Of
the kind whose room was consid.
cred full equivalent for his COM

invited to remove. Hence his
screed. 1t will be we'll not to be

The rights of citizens to vote for
every alderman on the lists, re-
CARELESS Of ward boundaries, is up
for consideration. 1t is we'll to
consider it calmly and come to con.
illusions. Something is to come out
Of 1t and it is not wise to ignore it.
The decision Of one state Judge
is to the effect that a City Coun.
ell, elected by city wards and moi
by the votes Of the people at large, is
not competent to sign a contract on
the part Of the city. Ifso it is well
to have it known by such decisions
as will not leave the question in

SHOWS in the central part Of the
state indicate that after all the
farmers may find sufficient mois-

1t may cause little delay in plant
ing, but if the rains continue we'll

be no loss on this account. I The
cool weather that prevails is very
fortunate for the horticulturists, as
it delays from week to week the

There are some Republicans in
the country, way up in position
and still farther up in their own
estimation, who are more anxious
to hurt the Democratic party than
to aid the country out of its diff
culties. This may be good politics,
but it is mighty poor statesman
ship, and what this country needs
is more craftsmanship and less
politics. The country first and the
party last is the true philosophy.
