THE DAILY STANDARD.
DRURY LACY, Editor.
PORT WORTH. TEXAS. MAR. 3. 1878.
The San Antonio Express has
obtained the number of the cattle
drives, having called on tha princi-
pal stockliiom The list aggregates
a grand total of 223,400. While
the cattle have diminished in some
counties, Being driven out to make
room forearms, they are increasing
in the frontier counties. The de-
struction of the vast herds of buffalo
on the plains, amounting to nearly
250,000 annually, has improved the
range in that section- thus giving
more room for cattle. Texas is a
country of wonderful resources) no
wonder Writers deal ill highflown
extravagant language bn the sub-
ject.
The conviction of Anderson was
not based on the, fact, as the repub-
lican papers assert, that he and the
other members of the returning
board exercised judicial powers in
throwing out boxes, thus counting
in the republicans. They were
clothed with this power, to be used
of course impartially. The charge
brought and proved, was changing
the face of the returns from Vernon
parish, which act was a felon}7,
punishable by the laws of the state
with imprisonment for a term of
years. It was no “political” offense,
but a heinous crime. Still the cry
of persecution is made by leading
republican journals.
Senator Maxey is reported to
have said of the passage of the sil-
ver bill over the veto, “that no
president had ever received such a
blow as Hayes got/’ Poor Hayes
has alienated the republicans by hie
southern policy, which Was a neces-
sity, in the situation he was placed.
He has disgusted the democrats by
the sympathy he has manifested for
the members of the returning board,
whose great facility at manipulating
election returns gave him the only
claim to the position he occupies. If
Hayes had not said that he believed
he was fairly and honestly elected,
we could have some fespect for his
psalm-singing, in which he is said to
indulge.
The Graham Leader, in replying
to the charge which has been made
against Governor Throckmorton,
that he was inffuenced by interested
motives ip having Graham desig-
nated as one of the places for hold-
ing federal courts, in the proposed
new district, states that Throck-
morton owns no property in Young
county, having sold his interest
some time since. We are not aware
that he has any preference in the
matter. It is assented that he
promised the Fort Worth delega-
tion that he would recommend this
city, at the convention which nom-
inated him ; of this we know noth-
ing. When the bill was prepared,
we understand that the entire Texas
delegation, including the senators,
■were called together, and that a
committee was appointed, consisting
of Senator Coke and Representative
Culberson to decide upon suitable
locations, and that they designated
Dallas, Graham and Waco in the
bill, which has not yet become a
law.
OUR JUDICIARY SYSTEM.
The press, not only in Texas, but
throughout the United States, are
discussing the question of the courts,
and suggesting many reforms in the
judiciary system. Softie plan must
be devised by which more speedy
trials for minor offenses may be ob-
tained. The powers of the majis-
trates courts should be enlarged and
misdemeanors should be tried, and
punishment commensurate with the
offense should be awarded. The
cumbrous system of grand juries,
and the old Useless forms of indict
ments should be dispensed with.
It is not our province to suggest
remedies for existing evils, and we
frankly admit our incompetency to
do so. That the evils exist no sen-
sible man can deny, and that a more
prompt and summary method should
be adopted, is apparent. Every tax
payer is deeply interested in having
Our jails relieved of the crowd of
prisoners boarding at the public dost,
with all the' attendant costs of
guards. Unless some practical rein-
ed}7 is devised, our criminals will
Become an' intolerable tax, and
bVncb law Will become more com-
mon and moro defensible than it is
AN INTERMEDDLING SPIRIT.
We wrote an article on “Religion j
and Politick,” for the Sunday paper,;
a short time since, in which -,w'e at- j
tempted to indicate the dividing
line which separated the duties of a
citizen from those of a merely re-
ligious man. We referred to the
petitions of churches asking con-
gress to take into consideration the
alcoholic traffic, and deprecated any
attempt to interfere with the rights
of citizens who had observed the
laws and were entitled to protection.
That the good intentions of these
over-zealous people, to produce re-
form, would only end in creating
antagonisms in society, when none
should exist.
A large portion of our article was
devoted to the movement set on
oot not only to recognize God in
the constitution, but even to adopt
an amendment in which Christ was
also to be included, and that this
was a Christian nation. Some of
our readers may remember the ar-
ticle, or may be able to refer to it.
We will only repeat ourselves so
far as to reaffirm our position, that
such a proposition Was at variance
with the spirit of the constitution
and was in its nature inquisitorial,
and would result, if successful, in
imposing religious tests for office.
We now desire to expose the
folly and wickedness of another
organization the Very reverse of
those we have commented on,
known as the national liberal
league, which has presented a neti-
tion to congress with over ten
thousand signatures, asking for a
constitutional amendment seculariz-
ing the national and state govern-
ments, which is nothing more nor
less than ignoring the existence of
a God, and dispensing with the
form of an oath, prayers, days of
thanksgiving and every recognition
of dependence on a Supreme Being.
These men are disposed to go to
the other extreme and to oppose, by
doing violence to the religious sen-
timent, the movements of the more
fanatical elements in the churches.
The following from an able edi-
torial m the Hew York Worl ’, so
fully and clearly expresses our
views upon the subject under dis-
cussion, that we take the liberty of
making a long extract, asking oiir
readers to weigh well the utter-
ances, and to avoid, if possible, that
pernicious spirit of intermeddling
which has caused so much sorrow
in the world. We quote :
“ We presume these petitioners
are the natural opponents of those
wrbng-headed gentlemen who are
constantly urging the necessity of
putting a formal recognition of
God into the constitution. Let the
efforts of both classes counteract
each other and leave the present
healthy equilibrium of the public
mind unshaken. The Lord deals
with individuals and not with
organizations, and if the American
people are industrious, honest,
charitable, obedient to the law
and solicitous to keep the nation in
the path of justice, they require no
statutory declaration of their piety.
But if the race of defaulters, rogues
era! exclamation was this: “It is
the finest wheat I ever seed.” What
wonderful changes have occurred
in the last forty-four [gears. Over
a vast area of country, extending
hundred of miles in every direc-
tion, green fields of wheat greet
the eye of the traveler, and from
the elevated prairie may be seen
from five to twenty-five new farms,
the unpainted plank looking as
fresh as it was when taken from the
saw-mills.

THE FIRST TEXAS WHEAT.
We learn from our learned and
venerable friend, Judge G.A.Evarts,
that he was the first person to sow
wheat in Texas, having obtained a
few bushels from, a Missouri immi-
grant, in 1839. He lived utiar Bon-
ham, in the Fannin district, which
embraced all Northwestern Texas.
He stated that the wheat nrew very
tall and luxuriant, and, but for the
wet weather Avould have made
fully thirty bushels to the
acre. Parties from a great distance |
came to see this wheat, and the gen
