DAILY DEMOCRAT ■ ADVANCE.
FRIDAY, MARCH 3. 1882,
Conkling hesitates.
The new courthouse of Wise county
will cost $36,425, and is to be completed
by November 1st.
Ingalls is opposed to the confirmation
of Conklins?, but Roscoe will take the
cake if he desires it.
The Houston Post, of the 1st, contains
an engraving of the new btate capitol as
it will appear when completed.
Guiteau has had a colored preacher to
visit him and pray with him. Th is is the
only clerical visitant the condemned as-
sassin has had.
The W. C. T. U. should tackle Mrs.
McPherson, of the Sherman Democrat.
She is openly opposing prohibition in
Grayson county.
We don’t know who evinced the worse
taste, Cyrus W. Field, who caused the
erection of the statue to Andre, or the
miscreant who defaced it.
It seems that Fitz John Por ter was
only a scape goat, after all. Some one
had to be made an example of, and Fitz
John was the uiilucky dog.
Judge Hancock’s severe criticism upon
the outrageous practices of the Federal
Court at Austin, will find a hearty en-
dorsement at the hands of the public.

Reports from the flooded districts in-
dicate that the waters are beginning to
slowly subside, and we hope in a few days
to chronicle the fact that they are falling
rapidly.
Why don’t some one inaugurate a
moyement to celebrate the four hundredth
anniversary of the discovery of America ?
This centennial business must not be per-
mitted to lag.
With Grant on the retired list, and
Conkling on the Supreme Bench, the
“tussle” for the Republican nomination
in 1884 will be between Blaine and Ar-
thur, with the chances in favor of the
latter.
—--m-—
A malicious report has been circulated
against Senator Bayard, to the effect that
he had entered into a coalition with Gor-
ham for the Presidential nomination.
The Senator pronounces the whole story
as absurd and false. What has Gorham
got to do with a Democratic nomination
anyway?
Grayson county furnishes a sensation
in the shape of a wild woman, discov-
ered in the woods near the spot where
Red River City formerly stood. The
strange creature was perfectly nude, and
upon the approach of her discoverers fled
through the woods with the agility of an
antelope, distancing a fleet horse at full
speed. _pm o —-*3-
Gen. Rosecrans accuses Blaine of per
verting the truth of history in his eulogy
on Garfield—which Garfield, if living,
would not have permitted. The imagi-
nation is frequently called upon on such
occasions, but Blaine should have remem-
bered that there are those living who
might be injured by giving Garfield credit
which belonged to others.
The picture of President Arthur walk-
ing down the aisle of the House, affection
ately leaning on the arm of John Sherman
who, as Secretary of the Treasury, secured
his removal from the custom house of
New York in order that it might be hon-
estly administered, must have been affect-
ing in thelextreme.'The goddess of liberty,
in her niche on the wall, might have shed
a tear upon the scene.
---». > -*t--
The St Louis Globe-Democrat, in com-
menting upon Blaine’s oration, classes
among those who will be disappointed in
in its pursual, “those who expected to
find in it a political, or rather a factional
tendency.” Does the G.-D. belong to
this class ? It had predicted that the ora-
tion would partake of apolitical or faction-
al nature, to be used through the means
of the dead President to the advantage of
the speaker. ^ ^ ^_
The Fort Worth Daily Democrat-Ad-
vance has taken a front rank among the
leading dailies of the State. We extract
from it freely, in fact, our scissors have a
natural inclination to slash into the pen-
thoughts of the Democrat-Advance.—
Brenham Independent.
Kind words coming from our co-laborers
in the field of journalism in eyery part of
the State, is truly encouraging, it is
pleasing to realize that our efforts to pub-
lish a first-class newspaper are seen and
appreciated. The Democrat-Advance
has attained its present elevated station
among the dailies of the State through
the untiring energy of the management,
and after overcoming almost insurmount-
able obstacles, and through a continuance
of such enterprise we hope to ascend still
higher, and to merit still more the plaudits
of our friends.
BESSEMER STEEL.
The American production of Bessemer
steel, is a rapidly advancing industry, and
. one worthy of note. The marvelous in-
crease of production of this material, only
shows ftie extent of its appreciation by
the business interest of the country. This
again shows us more clearly than ever,
that steel is fast taking the place of iron,
in many uses, where but a little while ago
iron was only used. This is in perfect ac-
cordance with the laws of economy, for
while the first cost of steel may be, and
really is, greater than the cheapest mate-
rial, railway management has learned,and
are learning the fact, and in consequence,
are now in many instances changing their
iron rails for steel raisl, with most favora-
ble results. From reliable statistical in-
formation, we learn that the product of
Bessemer steel has been increased by fac-
tories in the United States, as follows: In
1872.94.000 tons; 1875, 290,000 tons; 1880,
955.000 tons, and in 1881, 1,365,000. This
Is indeed a most remarkable growth.
A FEW QUESTIONS TO LOCAL 0PTI0N-
ISTS.
If local option prohibits, what is done
with all the whisky that is shipped daily
from Sherman to Fannin and Lamar
counties ?
Will you be able to draw any tighter
rein on habitual drunkards, or even on
your own sons, if they have an opportu-
nity of sneaking into some sky-parlor den
of vice, any night or day of the week,
where the eyes and hands of friends can-
not reach them to stay the hand that
drains the flowing bowl ?
II you are so sure that you can enforce
this sumptuary law, why have you nor
turned your attention to enforcing the
Sunday law which stands as a dead letter
upon your statute books?
What answer can you make to the plain
and broad a .sertioi, of truth,that the bell
punch enaetur it—a law that made both
seller and buyer a spy and sneak—-was
r it enforced, but became a perfect farce
after the first month o - two?
Why don’t you close up the gambling
shops?
Why do you not enforce the law against
bawdy houses?
Why do you neglect all this good work
of reformation, and devote your energies
on a sumptuary law that has proven a.
failure wherever tried, and which, while it
is a lull and humiliating admission that
we are no longer capable of governing
ourselves, is a direct and fanatic under-
mining of our personal and constitutional
liberties.
Why is it that so many men can now
start saloons in Kansas on a capital of
about $50, or eyen les-? •
Why do you prefer to have some worth-
less sellow retailing poison in defiance of
law. to having a man give a sufficient
bond to keep an orderly nouse and paying
about $600 into our state, county and city
treasuries, to help educate the young and
lighten the burden of taxation?—Sherman
Democrat.
The above are certainly pertinent in-
quiries, and they furnish their own re-
sponses. Sin was engrafted in the human
heart when the serpent tempted Eve in
the Garden of Eden, and all the work of
ages have been unable to eradicate it. We
do not believe the prohibitory law could
or would be enforced, any more than are
the laws against gambling and prostitu-
tion. Public sentiment is the all-control-
ing power in this country. Public senti-
ment was against the Bell Punch act, and
it was a dead letter on the statute books
Public sentiment is not as strongly set
against drinking as it is against gambling.
There are more men who drink than there
are who gamble, yet public sentiment is
not sufficiently strong to prevent gaming
rooms to be run in the broad light of day,
and where the voice of the roller can be
heard upon the streets for a considerable
distance. We believe intemperance. We
are advocates of temperance, because we
believe that it may accomplish great good
to the country. But we are opposed to
the enactment of laws that will not be en-
forced ; to assume a virtue which we do
not possess. .
last few years there is a vast quantity of
unsettled lauds in this county, which can
be bought cheap, at from one dollar up-
wards. Wool growing and cattle raising
are largely carried on, and there are ex-
tensive quarries of limestone, which ex-
ist in lame quantities, and suitable for
building purposes. The county has first-
class railway facilities, being crossed by
the main line of the Texas and Pacific,
east and west, and the Missouri Pacific
fiom northeast to southwest.
Total taxable wealth of Tarrant, $5,000,-
000; population, 30.000. The annual ex-
portation of Fort Worth is 45,000 bales of
cotton, 325.000 pounds of wool, 30.000
bushels of grain, besides large quantities
of other produce.

Some ot the Republicans are getting to
be unnecessarily particular about the
company they keep. The Washington
correspondent says: “Now that ex-Senator
Dorsey has been criminally indicted a
good many Republican Congressmen are
annoyed that he persists in retailing his
position as secretary of the Republican
National Committee. It is thought that
the members and offices s of the National
Committee should belong to the undetect-
ed part of the community, and it has been
suggested that at the next meeting of the
committee it would be well to adopt a rule
that any one ot the members herea'ter
indicted for criminal offenses, such as star
route robberies, shall thereby cease to be
a member of the committee. A question
now discussed is whether Mr. Dorsey wil
resign or whether he will merely “fix a
stain on the glorious old party,” by hold-
ing on to his secretaryship.
--.
The Austin Statesman, in its implacable
opposition to Coke, attaches the name of
Gen. L. S. Ross to the candidacy of Coke,
and affects surprise that he should with-
draw, unless it be tor the reason that the
“Coke movement has found lodgment in
a stronger quarter.” The Statesman ac-
knowledges Gen. Ross to bean admirable
gentlemen and an incorruptible man, but
its vindictiveness to Coke would prevent
its support ot so good a man, because of
his frindship for the Senator. The Dem-
ocrat-Advance was the first to bring the
name of Gen, Ross before the public, and
knowing his sterling integrity and honest
desire lor retirement to the walks of pri-
vate life, that he may more satisfactorily
attend duties of a business .nature, it re-
grets to see his declination to make the
race for Governor attributed to anything
that partakes of a political bargain.

THE
THE TELEGRAPH REPORT.
The Waco Examiner publishes quite a
lengthy article in regard to an item in the
Associated Press report of last Sunday
morning, in relation to the woman’s suf-
frage resolution, which was so mangled
in its transmission as to he perfectly unin-
telligible. It led the Dallas Herald to in-
fer that the inestimable boon of American
freemen had been conferred upon the
gentler sex. The report came to this pa-
per as it did to the Herald and Examiner.
The Galveston Ncvjs had the correct re-
port, and the conclusion is irresistable
that the error occurred in the Western
Union office at Galveston. The press of
Texas is at a great disadvantage in regard
to its telegraphic service. In the first
place it gets a report that it does not wish
but must take that or none. The service
is irregular and oft times deficient. For
this there is no remedy. The public,
doubtless, frequently criticise the report
as published, and lay the blame on the
newspapers, when it properly belongs to
the telegraph company. It is one of the
results of monopoly which bears heaviest
upon the press, and from which there
seems no immediate hope or prospect of
relief-
PG0LING RAILWAY LINES.
Until within the past very few years,
the system of pooling, now being prac-
ticed by some of the more important
through lines in this country, was a thing
not known or thought of. hut since com-
petition has sprung up, and to keep rates
at a standard of large profits, the pooling
system has been hatched and is now be-
ing inaugurated, among the more leading
through lines of New York. Really the
undoubted objects are, to control freights,
and do away with competition, or, in oth-
er words, strengthen monopoly and final-
ly concentrate the entire coming trade
from east to west into the hands of a tew
powerful combinations, which, even now,
are becoming alarmingly dangerous, and
ultimately, if not checked, absolutely ap-
palling to the business interests of the
country.
This pooling business is but little un-
derstood by the people, and we may say
hardly thought of, consequently its dan-
gerous tendencies are not appreciated. It
will be well to give it investigation, for
sooner or later, it will surely become a
subject of earnest thought by the lpeople.
We are in receipt of the special edition
of the Houston Post which was published
on the first instant. It is a very creditable
publication, and is replete with valuable
information of general interest. Its col-
ored map is a very fine production, and
will be found useful and instructive. The
Post devotes considerable space to Fort
Worth, whose future it says “is full of
promise, and her present fast developing
and healthy commerce bids fair to make
it one of the wealthiest and most populous,
as it is already one of the most progress-
ive, cities in Texas.” Of the county it
says:
Tarrant—One ot the wealthiest and
most populous counties in Texas, i3 m a
farming region that has no superior. It
occupies a beautiful high rolling prairie
country, with timber along the streams
aad valleys, with sail of extreme fertility.
The county is well watered by the West
Fork of the Trinity, which flows central-
ly through the county, and also by sev-
eral tributaries of that stream. There
are numerous streams aud springs, and
ebundance of stock water. The soil on
the prairies is sometimes black waxy, but
often a dark chocolate, loam exceedingly
productive; the average yield being 25 to
40 bu-liels of corn, and three-quarters to
one bale of cotton to the acie.
Wheat is also a successful crop,
the average yield being twenty to thirty
bushels; also rye, oats and barley. Not-
withstanding the immigration of the
Entirely Too Good.
Dallas Times.
The Tyler Courier says we “ turn the
cold shoulder ” when Governor Roberts’
name is mentioned. Such physical move-
ments on our part is evidently miscon-
strued by the press. Certair people in
the world will bow with closed eyes be-
fore their gods, to which they have fixed
the attributes of all that is good. We
dan’t turn the cold shoulder to the Gov-
ernor, but, on the order of the worship-
pers of idols, shut our eyes and think how
good he is. A man who can reward his
worst enemies as he did in this county, is
tpu good for us to look on. We have al-
ways thought if we could ever meet that
highest type of being-slapped-on-one-
cheek-to-turn-the-other Christian, we
would fall down and worship him. The
Governor beats such a Christian at
least five laps to the mile. He was
slapped on both cheeks, hit in the eye and
banged on the nose. He seemed dissatis-
fiet^because his corporeal acreage was not
large enough to furnish more places for
his enemies to hit him. He forgave and
rewarded the last slugger among them.
We are not a bad man, and we like a good
man, but the Alcalde’s points of good-
ness are up where we can’t reach them.

GiauW-D emocr at.
It is confidently stated that Fitz John
Porter is to be restored to his rank in the
army, and that the only point that re-
mains in doubt respecting ,him is as to
whether he shall receive back pay up to
date as Major General of volunteers, or
whether that rate of pay shall cease when
the other Major Generals of volunlfeers
were mustered out of the service, and his
pay from that date be continued as Col-
onel of the regular army, which was his
rank. The people do not care very much
about the decision as to that point, but it
is due that the reasons fo.r the reinstate-
ment shall be clearly set forth. It will
need a very explicit explanation, if there
is one, to defend the action in the popu-
lar mind, and in a good many military
minds as well.
