DINGLEL REPLIES.

Ex,-President Cleveland took occa-
sion in post prandial speech at a din
ner in New York City recently to ar
raign the Republican, party as being
faithless to its pledges. CleveIand's
speech was a miserable hotch potch
of platitude, but by reason of his
prominent position, as the only Moses
the Democratic party has known in
forty years, his utterances will be ac-
cepted by a large section of the De-
mOcracy as gospel. Mr.. Dingley. af-
ter whom the new tariff bill is NAM
ed, replies to Cleveland. He combats
the assertion made by Cleveland that
the Republican party won on the sound
money issue alone. Mr.. Dingley says:
THE fact is that the Republican party
won on both issues, and the tariff issue
in those parts of the country which
practically decided the contest had
more to do with the victory than any
other issue"
Mr.. Dingley clearly demonstrates
that the first duty of the Republican
party is to adjust the tariff so as to Sc
cure sufficient revenue to run the gov
eminent, and at the same time protect
it's industries. Legislation to improve
the currency can come afterwards In
fact it will take time to frame our
money legislation. The Democratic
party was in power under Cleveland
for four years and never made a be-
ginning, and yet Mr.. Cleveland at a
dinner in New York attempts to criti-
else Mr.. McKinley's administration be-
fore it has been in office two months.
The Democratic Moses is becoming a
very stale sort of a statesman.

MEXICO TO BE REPRESENTED BY
A BAND

Mayor Strong of New York City has
received a communication from Mexi-
can Minister Romero in Washington
in which the latter states that
the minister of foreign affairs in Mex
leo informs him that his government
will be unable to send 4 warship to
participate in the naval display at the
dedication of the Grant monument.
Mexico had intended sending the man
of-war Zaragosa to New York, but that
vessel has been disabled at Toulon,
France. The Mexican government.
however, is very DESTROYS of being rep
resented here on April 81, and will send
the Mexican military band AS pieces
and bandmaster. The committee has
accepted the services of the Mexican
band and place will be assigned it
on the reviewing stand at the tomb,
where it will render several appyopri-
ate selections, in addition to the must
cal programme, which will be furnish
ed by Frank DamTosch's orchestra of

DON'T GIVE LIEN NOTES WHEN
BUYING PIANOS Or ORGANS

Commission agents demand them to
satisfy the manufacturer, as they are
used as collateral. and must be met at
maturity After the lien notes are
given, the title to the piano reverts
back to the manufacturer, or holder
of the notes, unless they are paid.
Another point well worthy of consid-
GRAFTON. is the bill of lading. Demand
this before you receive the piano in
your house, and you can see by it
whether the piano comes direct from
the factory, and WHEN.
We do not demand NOTES when sell
ling pianos or organs; we have been
doing business in Texas for upwardsof
THIRTY-ONE years and are to be
found always ready and willing to
grant extensions, when a reasonable
excuse is offered, and to protect you
against any defects that may arise in
any instrument that we sell you, there

makes of pianos in different woods and

MONDAY, APRIL 26. 1897.
ORGANIZATION OF TAXPAYERS.

The organization of taxpayers in
Galveston, as we'll as the organization
OF taxpayers in the greater cities, such
as New York, and Chicago, to check
municipal wrongs. has stimulated
many of our taxpayers TO start an or
ganization, the object being to combat
the city government and bring about
a more equitable and jIst tax levy.
The situation in our city is certainly
serious: the new city administration
has levied the highest rate of taxes
ever known in the history of our city.
The justification of this increased levy
Is that it is necessary in order to
meet the defalCatiOn of the past ad-
ministratiOn. Now it is folly to stand
on the street corners and curse the
Callaghan administration. Let the
taxpayers organize and discuss the
question without passion. Should one
thousand or more of our taxpayers
organize, it will be a good warning to
the powers that be to go slow and be
sure that they are right. A taX-pay-
ers organization could thoroughly dis
cuss the problems of city government,
and could come to the assistance of the
city government in defending all prop
er acts and measures intended for the
benefit of the city government. 1t
should be an association for the bene-
fit Of the city and not for the pur-
pose of tearing down any particular
combination or clique.
The people depend upon the news
papers doing all the fighting for them.
This is all right, if the people will
back the newspapers. In these days
newspapers follow rather than form
public opinion. 1t will not be difficult
TO secure the newspapers in favor of
any popular uprising of the people.

diligent again today in behalf of the
appointment of Mrs. Morrow as post
mistress at Abilene He said to me
that he cared nothing about individu-
ais to get men in office, and that his
desire'is solely to get such men in Of
flee as are qualified and who are ac-
ceptable to the people. He thinks Mrs.
Morrow both qualified and acceptable,
but it looks as if he were interested
in her Individually, as he told the post
master and the president that to turn
the daughter of Sam Houston out of
office would in the eyes of Texans be
as much an outrage as would be the
turning out of office of d daughter of
General Washington, if one were in
public service, in the eyes of the whole
country.
There have been hundreds of fourth
class postoffice appointments made
throughout the country since the pres
ent administration came into power.
These have been made to fiji vacancies
caused by deaths, designations and ex-
piration of four year terms. Today
there were 16 appointments. They
were made in all states in which there
is no particular row among the Re-
publicans. So far, there has not been
one made in Texas. asked DIR. Grant |

\ GREAT CHANGE OF PUBLIC
SENTIMENT.

Time was when cities and towns of.
fered bonuses to corporate companies
to occupy their strets and erect Their
plants, to furnish the people with
street railways, water gas, etc, now
the thing is all changed, the granting
of free franchises is at an end. Great
cities as we'll as small, demand pay for
their franchises. The latest demon
monstration comes from Chicago.
The Humphreys bills before the Hi
nois Legislature granting for a term
! of fifty years, valuable rights to GER
tain street railways, without compen-
sation, has aroused the best people of
the city of Chicago, and an immense
mass meeting has denounced this leg
islation. Mob law is even threatened.
The Journal, a conservative paper.
says:
No, II is not for us TO deprecate the
use of force when all means of per-
suasion have failed. 1t is not incum
bent upon law abiding people to sub
NIT tamely when it is proposed to de-
priYe them Of their rights for so years.
Every Chicagoan who can do so should
make it his business to be in Snring-
