SATURDAY EVENING, JANUARY 23, 1886.
“The undivided one-third” of 26,260
is—?
Will it be a backdown on the part of
the underwriters?
Hazen appears to be losing his grip.
His northers fail to materialize.
The Germania Insurance company, of
New York, has withdrawn from Galves-
ton. Nextl
The Corpus Christi Caller has attained
to the mature age of three years. It is
always a welcome caller.
MALICE PREPENSE.
Two or three Texas newspapers, ap-
parently thinking that the end justifies
the means, no matter how contemptible
they may be, are trying to down Senator
Maxey, by asserting, either openly or by
insinuation, that he stood in. with the
star-route frauds. These journals know,
if they are at all conversant with the sub-
ject, that instead of “standing in”with the
star-route frauds, it was dus to him more
than to any other one man that those same
frauds were abated. They know that
he made a ringing speech in tbe Senate,
advising their immediate punishment.
They know, or should know, that to Sen-
ator|Maxey more than to any other man,
the country in general, and the state of
Texas in particular, is indebted for its
proficient star-mail service. They know
that during Senator Maxey’s entire public
career he has never by thought, word or
deed countenanced any manner or means
of public or private dishonesty. They
know that he is an honest man, an up-
right gentleman, above reproach, and
that he has served the state well and
faithfully, and if they do not already
know they will soon learn that the days
have long since gone by when calumny
and falsehood will prove effective weap-
ons in political warfare.
The opinion is becoming quite general
that the Wharf company wishes it had
kept quiet about the “illegal taxes.”
One and two dollar silver certificates
are the demand of tbe hour. Put away
the big silver slugs and give us their
paper representatives.
If Dakota would agree to keep her
confounded weather at home instead of
letting it wander all over the Union, the
South would get up in the night to let
her into the Union .
The majority of Texas newspapers
seem to enjoy making a pincushion of
the alleged Terrell boom. Pretty much
all the wind has oozed out of it. Put on
the pumps, neighbor.
Houston and Fort Worth are blowing
about their big banks, but when a Texas
business man wants to raise a bar’l of
ducats, and do it quick, he visits the
“old lady by the sea.”
Day by day, with ghastly regularity,
the wires bring accounts of mine acci-
dents, in which many human beings are
hurled without warning into the presence
of the Supreme Judge of the universe.
Evening JTribune readers sometimes
read, at four o’clock, of things that hap-
pened in Europe at five o’clock on the
same day. Thus does electricity outstrip
time and beat old Sol in his circuit of the
heavens.
There were 1,806 saloons in Iowa be-
fore the passage of the prohibitory law.
There are now 1,837 doing business
openly,besides 420 places where a “wink
is as good as a nod.” Prohibition works
backwards.
The question now agitating the New
York Herald is: Has the Senate any
more right to demand reasons of the
president for removals than the president
has to require of the Senate its reasons
for rejections.
A recent Kansas court decision says
in effect that the state should pay for
property rendered useless by thejpassage
of prohibition laws. Should this deci-
sion be affirmed it will knock out the
prohibition movement in “bleeding
Kansas.”

TALKING BACK.
“That is the position I propose to take,
and I am ready to abide the conse-
quences.”—Grover Cleveland.
’Tis of such stuff that heroes are made.
Money-borrowers in the Western states
and territories are very much excited
over a report that capitalists will require
their loans to be made payable in gold
hereafter, or on a gold basis.—Fort
Worth Gazette.
They are even now requiring it, and
they demand that silver be demonetized
in order to still further enhance the
value of gold. The question is, can
they loan a silver dollar and compel its
payment in a 120 cent gold dollar?
It is generally conceded that Ireland
and Maxey will go before the Twentieth
legislature of Texas, as candidates for
election to the United States Senate, with
a more evenly balanced support thau any
other parties whose names are mentioned
in connection with that high position;
but for all that, Alexander W. Terrell’s
senatorial stock is still rising over the en-
tire state.—Willis Index.
But the time is too short for it to reach
high-water mark.
When the “Press Pickings” or para-
graph editor discovers a stolen paragraph
or editorial in the exchange from which
he desires to clip, his scissors at once re-
fuse its office and the clipper is admon-
ished that he is likely to be taken up for
handling matter surreptitiously obtained.
Now, here is an esteemed contemporary
that contains t.vo good paragraphs, one
from the Mail, and the other from an-
other paper, recently published with
credit and comment in the Mail. What’s
to be done in such a c.tse?—Fort Worth
Mail.
Do? Why clap the branding iron upon
him at once.
The New Orleans States wants two
presidents elected instead of one—one to
hold receptions in Washington and at-
tend to business, and the other to at-
tend country fairs, picnics, quilting bees
and revivals. The idea of a man voting
and having his head punched every four
years to help elect a president he can
never hope to have any fun with don’t
suit the socially inclined editor of the
States.

Everything Goes Wrong
In the uodily mechanism when the
liver gets out of order. Constipation,
dyspepsia, contamination of the blood,
imperfect assimilation, are certain to en
sue. But it is easy to prevent these con
sequences, and remove their cause, by a
course of Hostetter’s Stomacb Bitters,
which stimulates the biliary organ and
regulates its action. The direct result is
a disappearance of the pains beneath the
ribs and through the shoulder blade, the
nausea, headaches, yellowness of the
skin, furred look of the tongue, and sour
odor of the breath, which characterize
liver complaint. Sound digestion and a
regular habit of body are blessings also
secured by the use of this celebrated re
storative of health, which imparts a de
gree of vigor to the body which is its
best guarantee of safety from malarial
epidemics. Nerve weakness and over
tension are relieved by it, and it improves
both appetite and sleep.
Good Results In Every Case.
D. A. Bradford, wholesale paper deale
of Chattanooga, Tennessee, writes that he
was seriously afflicted with a severe cold
that settled on this lungs; had tried many
remedies without benefit. Being induced
to try Dr. King’s New Discovery for Con-
sumption, did so, and was entirely cured
by the use of a few bottles. Since which
If the example of young Clewes, who,
yesterday, murdered his mistress and
then blew his own brains out in a Chica- t*me .^e k*9 used
Coughs and Colds with best results. This
is the experience of thousands whose lives
gobagmo, will prove a warning to the
youngsters of the country, he will not
have lived in vain. Of ample fortune,
with a good mother and a beautifnl and
devoted wife, possessessed of a hand-
some physique and brilliant prospects, he
became the companion of the fallen and
ended his life by suicide, with his hand
stained with the dark crime of murder.
The Fairfield Recorder having men-
tioned that this was the year for hand-
shaking to loom up as a fine art, the
Fort Worth Mail raphsodises as follows:
“Exactly so, and the chances are that
you, Brother Lillard, will vote for the
. candidate who has the pleasantest ‘shake.’
There’s magic in the shake, and it has
sent more men <0 congress and the legis-
lature, and more lovers to the altar, than
any other dumb agency. The magnetic
shake is delightful, but who would vote
for a man with the clammy shake, the
shake of the tips, the gloved shake, or
the shake of the jim-jams? Give us the
warm, generous, electric grip, that seems
to say ‘there’s sugar in it,’ and the bar-
gaia’s struck.”
