[REPUBLICAN L0PIN10N-
{St. Louis Globe Democrat, republican May 31 '89]
Nobody has had to leave texas be-
cause of social ostracism or political
oppression; and texas has reaped the
just reward OF her good sense in that
respect.
* * #
O Texas lias outstripped them all (the
southern sta*es)by reason of the fact that
she has not allowed prejudice and tradi*
tion to confuse and retard her interests.
Her people have shown that a State can
be Democratic without being barbaric.
She castB a larger Democratic majority
than any other State in the Union, and
■till Bhe does not find it necessary to neg-
lect her industrial and commejpial affairs
for the purpose of glorifying Jeff Davis
trnd keeping alive the memories of the
Southern Confederacy. Her chosen mis*
gion is one of peacej and progress, of
happiness and honor.
A SOUTHERN EXPLORING EXPEDITION.
Manufacturers' Record has done a
work for the South in the past, and to
that It now adds this brilliant scheme,
to accomplish still more for this section.
The heavy expense of this Exploring Ex-
pedition will be borne solely by that jour-
nal, and its report published solely
through that medium
The work of this expedition will be
very incomplete, unless considerable
time is spent in Texas. This state has
a wealth of mineral and timber that is
not dreamed of in the East. The miner-
al wealth alone of Texas probably ex-
ceeds that of Alabama, Tennessee and
Kentucky combined. We desire the
Manufacturers Record to take early
notice of these facts, so that it may not
publish an imcomplete and partial report
of its exploring pary. Texas must have
full recognition in everything, particu-
larly in her mineral and timber wealth.
IMPURE MILK.
The Manufacturers' Record of Balti-
more, whieh is ever working for the
advancement of the South, has under-
taken one of the greatest enterprises of
the day. With a view to making known
to the world the vast wealth of the un-
explored mineral and timber regions of
the South, which railroads have not yet
opened up to public investigations, that
progressive journal has organized a fully
equipped exploring party, under the
management of Major Goldsmith Ber
nard West, of Birmingham, a noted ex-
pert in the exploration of the mineral
regions. In making this announcement
in its last issue, that papar says "we have
arranged to place at once in the field an
expedition scientific and practical, whose
duty it shall be to visit, investigate and
report upon all.the mineral districts of the
Southern states. It is estimated that the
mission will last six or eight months
Major West will be assisted by a scien-
tific staff of his own selection, and will
remain in the field for the next six
months. Outside of the several districts
with which Major West has been in*
timately connected, he will carry with
him a regular force, and proceeding on
horseback, camp by the way. Generally,
he will have the assistance of an engineer
and geologist, a timber expert, a secre-
tary aud necessary servants. The idea
of the expedition is not to jump from
i to plaoe by rail but to go through
> country in a leisurely way, study its
climate, conditions, resources and oppor-
unities. and to riTe the public an un-
' idiced and intelligent report." The
□ The Times has no feeling whatever in
the war which it has been making on the
sale of impure and diluted milk in El Paso.
We propose to,expose this'business as we
would any other public rascality. While
we hold that a milkman, who sells diluted
or manufactured milk, is a ^swindler, he
is no worse than many restaurant and
boarding house kfepers who knowingly
buy this bad milk, and even dilute good
milk after it has been sold to them.
Surely no man in El Paso now doubts
the fact that an ocean of bad milk is used
every day in this city. The immense
amount of canned^milk sold in El Paso is
proof if we had no other. A reliable
citizen of El Pasa informs us that he saw
the order book of a canned milk drummer,
and that one of the largest orders was
given by a dairy firm of thia city.
No v the remedy for this disgraceful
state of affairs is in the new ordinance to
be passed by the present city council,
under the full powers'granted by the new
charter. It should not only be unlawful
for milkmen to sell impure or diluted
milk, but keepers of restauants, hotels,
boarding houses, saloons and milk Btands,
should be subjected to the same penalties
for using or furnishing anything but pure
milk. It is necessary to make the city
health officer responsible for the execution
of the law. The law should make it his
daily duty to inspect milk, empower him
to throw bad milfc into the streets,and to
arraign the offender at once betore the
recorder for punishment. The offense is
a plain one and the remedy simple. The
sale of bad milk in El Paso should be
stopped, and that is all there is about
it.
'SOME TEXAS DEFICIENCIES."
that "in stock-raising much is left to na*
ture," and 'Improved machinery cannot
be said to be general in Texas," the most
serious slander {^contained in the second
paragraph, where.it is stated that Texas
has no house of refuge for juvenile vag-
rants. This innocent and voluble cor-
respondent does not know that the Stute
he lives in has equipped a reformatory
for youngjcriminals at Gatesville, and yet
speaks glibly of "deficiencies at present
truly glaring." There is one thing Texas
is not deficient in. viz,: correspondents
like "A Texan"whose chief business seems
to be slandering and disgracing the State
which gives them occupatiop. —Farm &
Ranch.
PHOTOGRAPHIC TIO BITS.
Under this title,"Some Texas Deficient
cies." one. who calls himself "A Texan"
writes a letter to an agricultural paper
published in the State of New York, as
follows.
"There is no first class agricultural'pa-
per injour vast empl.re , State. □ The Far-
mer's Alliance have a journal, but of an
nferior order, and fettered by politics,
and prejudiced especially against rail-
roads, and for men very much rather than
for measures. There is a^great need here
for a live, far-reaching farmers' journal.
No pursuit offers such> field for interest,
knowledge, science,learning and high en-
thusiasm as that of the chosen calling of
Washington. Still in Texas much is in
its infancy. Even in stock-raising things
are left to nature. The best grasses or the
best methods of their production are not
much thought of. Improved machinery
cannot be said to be general in Texas.
"In San Antonio immense sums are
lavished for a monument to the heroes o
the Alamo, but not a cent .for'a'House of
Refuge for juvenile vagrants. As far as
known to this writer there.is no|House of
Refuge for boys for education and to
teach a trade.to vagrant youth anywhere
in Texas.
"Texas is certainly moving ahead in
progress and development. But there are
deficiencies at present truly glaring.
"I write from Calaveras on the Aransas
railroad, % brickmaking village, made,
like tens of thousands, by railroads."
The whole letter is so absurd that it is
unworthy of notice, were it not for the
fact that it is a type of correspondence
constantly going from Texas to Eastern
and Northern agricultural papers,against
which a protest is in order.
The sweeping assertion that there is
"no first class agricultural paper in our
vast empire State" can only excite pity
for the^correspondent's ignorance. Texas
Farm and Ranch has been classed with
the Southern Cultivator and Home and
Farm, as "one of the three leading
agricultural papers in the South,"by John
M.Stahl who la among the highest agricul-
tural authorities on the continent; while
the Texas Stockman and Farmer* the
Texas Live-Stock Journal and the Texas
Journal of Horticulture take first rank la
their respective field*. The misrepresents!,
tions concerning "the Farmer's Alliance
Journal," the Southern Mercury, are
funny to thosa who know how popular
that paper has come to be of late.
Passing over the amusing assertions |
The project to introduce the metric
system and make it universal in photog-
raphy seems to be meeting with every
success.
It is somewhat singular that the three
greatest scientific discoveries of the Nine-
teenth century were almost simultane-
ously announced—railroads, 1830; elec-
tric telegraph, 1837„ and photography
1839.
At the United States infantry and cav-
alry school at Fort Leavenworth photog-
raphy is taught as carefully as engineer-
ins, military hygiene and the other nec-
essary studies, and at the final examina-
tions the students were examined in
photography
Four generations of the Harrison fam-
ily have recently been photographed in
the red parlor of the White House.
There is a difference of eighty-eight
years between the generations presented
in the picture. Dr. Scott is 90 and Baby
McKee is only 2 years of age
An English writer states that in the
British Isles' census for 1841 photography
was not even mentioned as an occupa-
tion. The census for 1851 reckons only
"fifty-one photographers, including one
female." The present numlwr we should
not like to guess, but it is surely to be
reckoned by thousands
Herve removes red fogging from plates
by soaking in water till the film is soft-
ened: then plunges into protochloride of
iron (2 parts to 100 parts of water) for
forty seconds; then washing in fresh
hypo {12 parts to 100 parts water), and
washing thoroughly in water This can
be carried on in the light
On Aug. 8 .over 100 vessels will be
drawn up in four lines, stretching from
Spithead to the Solent. The two inner
lines will lie composed of ironclads, bat-
tle ships and protected cruisers, and the
outer lines of swift cruisers and torpedo
boats. The display promises to totally
eclipse that of the jubilee year.
There has been a marked decrease of
strikes with ill the past three years. In
1888 the numbef of employes involved in
strikes and lockouts was 448.000. in 1887
about 345.000. and in 1888 only 211.000.
At the same rune there was an increase
in the number of successful strikes •
A factor)' recently bur net i at Dan bury,
Conn., was well known as the 'Twelve
Apostles." and was one of the oldest
factories in the city. It was started
shortly after the strike among Danbury
hatters several years ago by a company
of men, twelve in number, and it was
from this that it derived its strange
name.
