DAILY DEMOCRAT ■ ADVANCE.
THURSDAY, JANUARY 5, 1882.
The one great cause why New Year’s
swearing off does not stick, a nd all of us
become as good as we resolved to be on
New Year’s day, is that the day is too
short. Like all other (lays It passes
away, and with it goes many of our good
resolutions.
Among the lad;es who assisted Presi-
dent Arthur at his New Year’s reception
at the White House, we failed to note the
names cf Susan B. Anthony and Mrs.
Kate Sprague. Wonder 11 he intended
by this to snub Cockling and the
Woman’s Rights movement.
It is said that another railroad war be-
tween the roads running east from Chicago
is eminent. Already they have begun to
cut freight and passenger rates, and there
is no telling where it will end. The peo-
ple are always benefited by these wars,
and can, of course, endure them with com-
placency.
, Unquestionably the national banks are
going to make a strong effort to stop the
issuance of gold and silver certificates.
But if Congress consults the wishes ot the
people, the efforts of the banks will be
futile. These certificates have grown to
be so popular with the people that they
will not willingly give them up.
We have received the Gal /cston News
census edition, issued Monday, January
second. While we have neither time,
space or inclination to present an exhaust-
ive review of the work, we can say that it
is creditable to ibis great newspaper, as is
everything else it undertakes. It shows
the population ol Galveston to be 27,420
souls.
One of the Christum Statesmen of
Credit Mobilier lame still languishes in
retirement, lie was at one time Vice-
President of the United States—served
with Grant—his name has almost escaped
our memory. We believe it was Smiler
Coldlacts, or something of that sort.
■President Arthur should call him to his
council board.
Ir is now stated that the census bulle-
tins will show that the largest and best
pine forests in the United States are
in the South, and that to these pineries
we will have Lo look for a greater por-
tion of our lumber supply. No doubt
these pineries wifi prove a source of im-
mense revenue to the South. Rut this is
only one of our many source? of wealih.

The saloon keepers of New York haye
formed an association called the Union
for Eights. Their object is to secure pro-
tection from what they call unjust laws
aid unjust attacks of the Temperance
Brotherhood. As long as their business
is recognized by law, and they conduct
it according to law, they should be pro-
tected from all unjust attacks horn any
quarter. And they have as much right
to look after “legislation affecting their
interests as any other class.

The Dallas Times avers that the Repub-
licans of Dallas imagine that they consti-
tute the party in this state.-.. That is per-
fectly natural. The Democrats of Dallas
feel the same .way. S > do the boot-blacks
and the editors and the gentler snipes.
Its all Hie effect ot the teachings of the
Herald and Thms-Intelligencer. They
have educated the people of Dallas to be-
lieve that Dallas is Texas, and the wis-
dom, capital, talent and brains of the state
is concentrated at Dallas, simply because
the thieves and blackguards are.
OOJf&EESI?.
Congress assembles again to-day, and
we presume the work of legislation will
begin in earnest. It will be conducted,
presumably in tiie interest of the people,
but in point of fact, in the interest of the
Republican party and its army ol hungry
thieves and miserable cormorants, who
have grown rich and powerful by feasting
upon the public crib.
II Congress has the interest of the peo-
ple sincerely at heart, the first thing to be
done will be an amendment to the Senate
resolution, providing for an investigation
of the pension frauds. If the late Secre-
tary of the Treasury be innocent of the
charges made, ha will not be afraid of an
investigation with open doors. If he is
guilty, he is not entitled to the leniency
shown him by the sentimentality of the
committee.
Next ia order would come the revision
ol the tariff, the Mississippi River Im-
provement bill, and some measures look-
ing to the reorganization and relief of the
Supreme Court, and the adoption of some
sure, safe and reliable method of conduct-
ing the electoral 6eount, and for the im-
provement of harbors on the Southern
coast; the re-establishment of the navy
and the passage ol the Inter-State Com-
merce bill.
With these things completed, Congress
could adjourn and come home, with the
assurance that their action would meet
with the approval of their constituents’
There is no reason for spending six or
seven months at the Capitol, as is eontem"
plated.
TEE LIB EM AI E EEL ELIO.
The Ne w York Herald says the efforts
of the United States government to col-
onize and christianize Africa by estab-
fishing the Liberian Republic, has not
proved a success. This is nothing more
thantwe of the South expected. In places
where the whites predominate, and the
negro is brought in constant contact with
them, where he has the example, as well
as the aid and assistance of the Caucasian,
he may do reasonably well as a freeman.
But the place where iie must rely solely
upon his own efforts and exertions, with
no one to advise and direct him, and nine
times out ol ten he will prove a failure.
It is not surprising, then, to us of the
South, who are well acquainted with the
negro character, that the Liberian Repub-
lic has never been prosperous. It is not
surprising to us that they get into troub’e
and appeal to this government to help
them out of it. It is not surprising to us
that instead of civilizing and elevating the
natives, this colony lias rather had a ten-
dency to go down to their level.
The winter thus far has been so mild
that they have not been able to save any
ice worth speaking of in the North. They
are now praying for weather cold enough
io freeze their ice fields, so that ice may
be gathered for next summer. While it
is true that- the ice factories might be able
to make enough to supply the demand,
yet, if they had the natter in their own
hands, there can be no doubt hut what
they would raise the price. Ice has grow n
to be such a necessity now that anything
that shortens the cr-.-p or causes a great
-advance in the price would be a dire ca-
lamity to the people. We therefore hope
the prayers cl our Northern Intends for a
hard freeze may be grantei.
A If ITCH is reported in ths proceeding to
obtain the right of-way for the St. Louis
and San Francisco road through the Indian
Territory. Gov. Overton, of the Choctaw
nation, is in Washington with a strong pro-
test against the bill. The proposed line
does not touch the Choctaw lands, but
passes through those ot the Chickasaw na-
tion, whose legislature granted the conces-
sions asked. Just how, or in what manner
the Choctaws are interested in the matter
we are at a loss to conceive. Cov. Over-
toil while in St.Louis en route for Washing-
ton was interviewed by a reporter of the
Republican, but the interview does not
state his reasons for objection. We hope
Congress will pass the bill, and it doubt-
les v-ill. This beautiful land should rot
be permitted to be idle and useless any
longer. It Is too valuable and should be
opened up. We would not deprive the
Indians of their vested rights, but why the
exercise of eminent domain should not pre-
vail on lands owned bv Indians as well as
those possessed by white men we are un-
able to conceive.
Manifest Destiny.
St. Louis Republican.-
Whatever the more conservative senti-
ment may be respecting the very advanced
and aggressive ground assumed by the
state department under Mr. Blaine, that
sagacious politician did not mi-stake the
strength of the latent “manifest destiny”
spirit which may at any time be aroused
to sweep everything ’before it in this
country. The same logic which led this
government, at the risk of hostilities with
England. France, Spain and Austria, to
compel either or all of thesejpowers to get
out of Mexico, leads, without much strain,
to Mr. Blaine’s position. The great
powers of Europe, for their own
peace or safety, prompted by-
pride of caprice, with reason ^or without,
set bounds iu European and Asiatic wa-
ters to the voyages of tiie world’s war ves-
sels, and arbitrarily say to the United
Strtes, whose consent is not asked, “into
the Black sea you cannot enter.” With
infinitely more reason the United States
can assume by herself the guardianship of
the ways of transit oyer the isthmus be-
tween the two Americas. There is a vol-
umn of reason now where there was a
line when Mr. Monroe enunciated his doc-
trine lor demanding superior rights on
the American continent. What was a
sentiment then may be defined right now,
based on the most cogent and substantial
reasons. Our Pacific possessions impose
present duties and inspire views of the fu-
ture which it were sodden stupidity or
mean-spirited timiditj'-5:0 neglect or un-
dervalue
Thus reasons the school of manifest des-
tiny, and whatever we may think of its
temerity it has genera'ly ruled this coun-
try.
Whether we approve or reject Air Blaine's
views, the facts which are used as weapons
to assail him have not, upon examination,
much force in them. B e have now no
merchant marine nor navy, it is true. But
there is no American who expects this
humiliating national condition will con-
tinue forever, or for a very long time. It
is hardly a mark of ^statesman sli ip to shape
a prominent foreign policy upon a terapor-
o’ y, abnormal state of things, which it were
national weakness and disgrace.to contem-
plate as more than an unhappy and dis-
creditable episode. The other fact, that the
formidable naval power of Great Britain,
which would chiefly have to be consider-
ed in attempting to assist high preten-
sions in Central America, would place us
in a pitiable position of weakness, and
that we should be utterly unable to main-
tain the advanced ground of the late sec-
retary, is only a fact in appearance. We
have no ships to fall prizes to our enemy,
while on our northern frontier our great
rival would be defenceless indeed. There
would be no “fifty-four-forty or fight” in
that quarter, but simply occupation of
everything to- the extremity of tiie conti-
nent. There is little reason to expect re-
sistance to the doctrine of manifest destiny
from Great Britain at such cost.
The subject is one of great and absorb-
ing interest, and the position ot the State
Department, we may confidently assume,
will not be speedily or tamely receded
from,
PRESCRIPTION
Far The Cure of the Dreaded Small-Fox.
The Dallas Times shows some signs of
contrition on account of the scurrilous
manner in which it his treated Senator
Maxey in the past. It has turned over a
new leaf, and evidently intends to lead a
better life in future. In its last issue it
says: “Senator Maxey is acquitting him-
self with much honor—has lived down
the charges that he was favorable to the
Star Routes, as they were managed, and
utterly dUeomited those persons who
sneered at his low-quarter dives and red
sox.” it was the Senator’s “low dives
and red sox” that disturbed Gov. Bill-
sterrirt's peace of mind more than the
charges brought aga'nst the Senator in
regard to the Star Route frauds. The
Governor knew the “dives and sox” were
Gets; he- knew the caluminaiions were
fals°.
The opponents of James Guano Blaine
say tint he stands no chance of being
nominated tor the Presidency in 1884, tor
the reason that he lias a record that can
not be defended. Tnis declaration in the
light ot recall events is simply ridiculous.
It must be remembered that the same was
said of James A. Garfield when lie was
nominated. If was sail by able men in
the Republican party—as bad a record as
could be possibly manufactured for Blaine
was made for Garfield—and still he was
elected by a handsome majority. Review-
ing the past history ot the Republican
party, and considering the facts stand out
in bold relief as a part “of its record, it is
simply absurd to declare that the record
of its nominee has aught to do with his
election. That party affords the most
glaring proofs til it the rank and file care
nothing for tiie personal or political integ-
rity ot its nominee. President Arthur,
removed from c-ffice m 1879, because of
his dishonest management of the New
York Custom House, became the nomi-
nee of his party for the second office at
their disposal one. year later. The blots
and blotches Hint di-figure the political
record of some of the most prominent
men in the party does not withhold hon-
ors which he has to bestow. If Blaine is
a shrewder wire-worker and convention
packer than his opponent he will got the
nomination. If he gets the nomination he
will get the vote3 ol a majority of his par-
ty at th - polls.
A proposition is before Congress to
do away with the torn clad oath entirely.
In most cases where it is or in fact ever
has been taken, it has been in the modified
form. It operates no good now, if it ever
did, but in some instances it operates as a
special .evil. For instance, no one can
pre-empt any of the vacant lands ot thfe
United States unless he can take the iron
clad oath. This places the Southerners at
a great disadvantage. Notwithstanding
the war has been over for sixteen years,
and we have been thoroughly reco i struct--
ed, yet we are practically debarred from
settling on the public lands—while a
foreigner may come here, and by merely
filing a declaration of his intention to be-
come a citizen, pre-empt any of the vacant
lands of the United States Government.
The day has passed when discrimination,
in any sense of the word, should be made
against any class of our citizens, or any
section of the country, and the “iren clad
oath” as a relic of the war should be laid
away with the worn out garment the
“bloody shirt.”

The Number of Bills
Wanted.
N. Y. Sim.
I he roil calls in the House, just before
jne holiday recess, which resulted in the
introduction ot over two thousand bills,
showed some remarkable differences be-
i ween the _ ambitions of the respective
biases to initiate legislation. Thus Con-
necticut contented herself with 21 bills,
but Indiana produced 81. V ermont was
satisfied with 24. and Wisconsin with 38;
but nothing less than 119 suited Missouri,
and Illinois demanded 149. In the South
Alabama limited herself to 29; but Ken-
tucky presented 98 and Tennessee 91.
Florida modestly put in 8 bills, while
North Carolni hatched out 138. Little
Delaware brought tonvard 1 bill, and
Ohio 150, which was three more than
New York’s batch; while Pennsylvania
topped the list with 184. The Territories
exhibited the same ■ difference, Arizona
getting along with 2 bills, while Washing-
ton 't erritory required 30, or six more
than the fccate ot Georg’a.

Gniteau has never been ab’e

managed to have a large fortune scent
upon him. Taking together the cos’t of
t resident Garfield’s illness, the cost of

of the troops, the cost of the Garfield
family fund, and the cost of the various
Garfield monuments, Charles Guiteau has
altogether been a very expensive Repub-
lican citizen.
TLe Democrats and the Internal
Ilcv-eime System.
New York Sim,
If the Democrats of the present Con-
gress fail to unite in an effort to secure the
abolition of the internal revenue system,
they will miss-an opportunity seldom of-
fered to a political party. The measure is
Democratic in principle, it is jusMn itself,
and it will be popular throughout the
country.
That the abolition of the internal rev-
enue system is Democratic in principle
is plain enough. It is a necessary conse-
quence ot the Democratic doc-
trine that the best Gov-
ernment is that which governs least, or,
in other words, that which causes the least
visible interference ‘with individual liberty
and the least expenditure of - money arid
labor. How contrary to this doctrine is
the maintenance ot an army of tour thous-
and officials, the expenditure of five mil-
lions annually, the daily superv sion ol
the business ot .thousands of citizens, and
the prosecution of thousands of suits, civil
and criminal, against alleged violators or
the law, with not infrequently bloody col-
lisions between armed officers an >i their
desperate victims!
_ That the measure is just, is evident from
the fact that our present internal revenue
taxation is taking one hundred and thirty-
seven millions annually out of the pockets
of the people of this generation; partly to
pay a debt which was as much for the
benefit of posterity as for them, and the
liquidation ot which ought, therefore, to
be distributed oyer a much longer period
than it will be if the present internal rev-
enue taxation is continued, and partly to
meet the requirements of fraudulent pen-
sioners.
And, finally, that the measure must be
popular follows from the considera-
tion that relief from taxation is al-
ways popular, and especially re-
lief from a taxation ‘so burden-
some in amount and so vexatious in its
methods as that of our internal revenue
system. Not only will the abolition of the
system leave much money in the pocket of
the people, but it will spare them the inc s-
sant spying and meddling and watching
which four thousand paid officials are con-
stantly engaged in; and it will put an end
to all the cheating, lying, and false swear-
lug hit - which men are driven, as it were,
while it will allow our internal trade to go
on as it ought to. unfettered by legal regu-
lations.
Are the Democrats in congress wise
enough to improve the opportunity ?

Our Currency.
St. Louis Republican.
“It is just at this point that the silver
certificates threaten the worst mischief.
They are a virtual addition to the paper
circulation. They fill those channels of
circulation which, if silver is brought in-
to more general use, must; not be clogged
and crammed with paper promise?.’ri^N.
Y. Public.
There has not been a silver certificate
issued for a dollar which is not deposited
in the United States treasury. Every
man who accepts or misses a silver cer-
tificate does so with the distinct under-
standing that’it represents nothing but
coined silver dollars. These certifi-
cates are but silver in
portable, convenient form. They
are paper money in no sense in which
that term is used and understood. That
is, they have not a single element of
credit. They are not legal tender. They
are simple orders to pay a certain sum ot
silver which the bearer has on deposit.
'V hat nonsense then to talk about these
certificates “filling those channels of cir-
culation, which, if silver is to be brought
into more genera) use, must not be clog-
ged and crammed with paper promise*.”
they promise nothing. Tncy are orders,
demands tor the delivery of a thing al-
ways existing and ready to be de-
livered, subject to no contingency what-
ever. They do not inflate the money of
the country at all. It is disingenious, a
mere perversion of language, to speak of
them as “paper promises,” The real pur-
pose of the Public and its coadjutors is to
drive silver out of circulation and estab-
lish monometalisui, a purpose which they
have not ihe candor and courage to avow.
To suppose they mean anything else is to
suppose them incapable of knowing the
effect, direct and obvious, of the measure
they advocate. Instead of being dupes
and dullards, however, they are shrewd,
alert, intelligent and intensely selfish, and
are working with strong motives for a
definite, important object.
Apropos of the excitement over ihe
small-pox. we clip the following from a
Paris paper, being from a celebrated phv
sician:
“I herewith append a recipe which lias
been used to niy knowledge in hundreds
of cases. It will prevent or cure the
small-pox though the pPtings are filling.
When Jenner discovered cow pox in
England, the world of science hurled an
avalanche of fame upon his head, but
when the most scientific school ot medi-
cine in the world—that of Paris—pub-
lished this recipe as a panacea for - smal -
pox is passed unheeded. It is as unfailing
as fate; and conquers in every instance. Ft
is harmless when taken by a well person.
It will also cure scarlet fever. Here is the
recipe as I have used it, and cured my
children of scarlet lever; here it is I have
used it to cure small-pox; when learned
physicians said the patient must die, it
cured. Sulphate, of zinc, one grain; fox-
glove (digitalis) one grain; half teaspoon-
ini of sugar; mix with two tablespocnfuls
of water. When thoroughly mixed , add
four ounces of water. Take a spoonful
every hour. Either disease will disappear
in twelve hours. For a child, smaller
doses according to age. If counties would
compel their physicians to use this there
would be no need of p st-houses. If you
value advice and experience, use this for
that terrible disease.
Failures For the Year.
The total number of business failures
for the entire year 1881, throughout the
United States, is stated by the mercan-
tile agency of R. G. Dunn & Co., to be
5.582. involving liabilities of Slightly over
$81,000,000. Failures lor the year pre-
vious were only 4.735, with liabilities of
$05,000,000, The increase is, however,
regarded by the agency as small in pro-
portion to the enormous growth
in volume of trade and especially
in proportion to the number of per-
sons engaged in business. Compared with
1878 the showing is strongly to the ad-
vantage ot the year just closed. Failures
in that year being 10,400 and liabilities
being $234,000,000. In the year 1881 only
one person in every 140 engaged in busi-
ness has failed, while in 1880 the proper
tion was one in every 158. in 1879 one in
every 105 and in 1873 one iu every 64. ,4’he
figures of the year and the facts presented
are interpreted by the agency as confirm-
atory ol the impression that the trad -. of
tiie country is prosperous and in a safe
condition.
—The Galveston News has been hunt-
ing around for something for Texas to
repudiate, and base thereon a Mato ie
movement, and thinks it Ins succeeded in
its search. It says it is simply impossible
or the State to honor the land certificates
issued in excess of the acres ot land owned
by the State and that.the only remedy is to
readjust, or repudiate the land grant.
Does the News mean to repudiate all land
grants, or only enough to bring the grains
within the power ot the State to till? if
the latter, the peg is too fragile to hang
a repudiation movement upon, for the
certificates declare on their face that the
State is not liable lor any excess
of certificates over the amount
of the unappropriated lands.
The News certainly could not mean to’
seize the other horn of the public land
dilemma, it any such dilemma exists. We
are rather inclined to the belief that the
force of habit of talking about “our vast
public domain” is so strong upon the
News that, now having no vast public do-
main *o talk about, it must relieve itself
by talking about how our vast public do-
main was squandered. I s suggestion to
have a lull investigation- made of the
whole land business is a good one, for the
people would derive some satisfaction
from even knowing where and how their
lands went. Their present, information is
too limited to be satisfactory,—s. A. Ex-

-—Prohibition doesn’t prohibit in Kansas,

Atchison, begotton of Christmas hilarity,
goes tor anything in the way of evidence.
Borne railroad men got on a Christmas
spree, visited a house near by and a her
demolishing the windows and furniture,
stole a quantity ot wine and, retiring to
their camp, continued their debauch. The
farmer, who was subjected to the uncere-
monious visit, summoned his neighbors,

several on both .sides were seriously

There is r:o probability that during his

affairs, Mr. Davis was ever guilty of the
slightest act of pecuniary dishonesty, lie
is a man of much refinement of nature
and great directness of character, and
there is no doubt that while he was an
enemy to the Union, he conscientiously
devoted the whole of his remarkable,
though not always judicious abilities to
the cause he had chosen to stand by.
