EDITORIAL SMALL SHOT
Temper the wind to the back of the shorn
lamb.
It will be a week before we can handle
our Texas exchanges with satisfaction.
With a democratic house the tariff will be
attacked and down will come wool. Politi-
cally we don’t care.
“Have you heard the news from Castro-
ville and New York?” asked a western Texas
politician yesterday. Castroville was first in
his mind however.
Since our wool men were largely convinced
by John Hancock that free trade was just the
tiling they wanted we are in favor of the wool
men having free trade.
It is really amusing to have a bonrbon
stop you in the street and ask you about New
York; he seems to believe that New York has
actually been carried by the democratic voters.

spector Nevins of New Orleans to Galveston

lection of sites for the new government build-
ings in these cities.

Attorney-General Brewster has written to

ment in the star route cases. The request
was made upon the recommendation ol

Washington November 9. —General War-
ren P. Edgerton chief of the postoffice in-

sending young fish to different parts of the
country. Recently a car containing 120000
German kther carp was sent to Kentucky;
also several thousand to Columbia Ohio.
ANOTHEk NATIONAL BANK

the first national bank of Denison Texas to
begin business with $50000 capital.

Secretary Folger will send a special agent
probably Nevins of New Orleans to Galves-
ton and Dallas Texas to examine the proper-
ty offered as sites for public buildings at these
cities with instructions to make selections and
report to the department.
The treasury department has purchased
418000 ounces of the fine silver for delivery at
the United States mints for coinage.

to-day to redeem five millions U. S. called

bonds embraced in the 118th call may be pre-
sented. Similar orders have heretofore been

tion per week however cannot under the

at Tule river California that several parties

ment as such offenses have been difficult of
punishment heretofore.
FALL CONFESSES.
Fall charged with conspiracy to corrupt the
jurors in the star route trial has made a con-
fession.
LATEST CABLE TELEGRAMS.
TO BE HONORED BY THE QUERN.
London November 9. —The Queen will re-
view the Indian troops at Windsor Castle and
decorate some of the chosen of the force for
conspicuous bravery in the Egyptian war.
A SERVANT ARRESTED.
A dispatch to the Times from Cairo says
the Egyptian authorities have arrested the set!
vant who was sent by some one of the rebel
prisoners to the English counsel who is act-
ing for Arabi Pasha and his followers. Sir
Edward Miu lor British consul-general at
Cairo thereat demanded that be be released.
Arabi in piison is a greater curse to the people
of this country than Arabi free. The colossal
blunder of this trial of Arabi is now universal-
ly admitted. Greece and Turkey have signed
the protocol looking to the evacuation of the
disputed frontier.
THE LIVERPOOL CUP.
London November 9. —The race for the
Liverpool cup was won by Goggles. Sibel 2d
Wallenstein 3rd.
ARTHUR DESERVE!# IT.
London November 9. —The Daily News
in an editorial this morning says that Presi-
dent Arthur’s administration will be seriously
hampered by the democratic success. It is
more than probable that the wish to thus tie
his hands led many of his supporters in 1880
to oppose him. The rebuke thus given to the
president and his friends was thoroughly well
deserved.
GERMANY PLEASED.
A dispatch to the Morning Post from Ber-
lin says tne newspapers there commenting on
the democratic victory in the United States
express hopes of a return free trade and a
more honest railway policy.
A WILD JOURNALIST IN IRELAND.
Dublin November 9. —Freeman’s Journal
irotesting against conferring the freedom of
Dublin on Gen. Woolsley on his return to
this city asserts that Woolsky when about to
start for Egypt declared that an alloy to his
pleasure over the prospect of his expedition
was the fear that the Irish people would take
advantage of his absence to arise and he
would not be there to suppress them.
During the pendency of the discussion on
the coercion bill too says the Journal he ex-
pressed the hope that if the Irish should re-
volt he might be sent to Ireland to suppress
it and teach them what war meant.
GLADSTONE AND HOME RULE.
Dublin November 9. —Freeman’s Journal
■.ays: Premier Gladstone has never before
declared so distinctly and clearly his opinion
of the necessity of home rule or the extent to
which it should be conceded. It is impossible
to exaggerate the significance of his utterance.
Gladstone would not dare to use such words
as he did unless there was some real meaning
behind them. The proposition that England
will recognize home rule was distinctly ad-
vanced and brought into the domain of prac-
tical politics by Gladstone in his speech.
The Irish Times commenting upon the
same says additionally that Gladstone has
made a remarkably emphatic new bid for the
Irish vote.
A SOCIALISTIC CONCLAVE IN FRANCK.
Lyons November 9. —The socialists held a
meeting last night and which Madame Paul
Minckey presided. Reporters of the daily
press who had front seats and were intending
to furnish full reports were expelled by the
members of the secret organization and the
police in attempting to interfere and prevent
•rouble were pelted with mud and hustled
about amid cries of “Long live socialism and
revolution.” After the speaking ended the
meeting broke up in great disorder.
Scraps of mackintosh and other india-rubber
coated fabrics have hitherto been useless be-
cause the india-rubber could not be profitably
extracted from them. An American inventor
however finds that strong hot sulphuric or
muriatic acid has no effect on the rubber but
a »trong corrosive action on the textile fabrics
and he has taken out patents for a process of
recovery in which he eats away the textile
fabrics with these acids preferring hydro-
chloric as it forms more soluble salts with the
zinc and whiting than sulphuric. If the
original atuff be in lumps it is first softened
with benzole.
Watches Jewelry and Diamonds.
I have ju-t returned f rom the oust where I
made selections of the finest goods in my line
ever otfen o in the state and have an immense
stock now on display. I would especially call

ties in jewelry can be seen at my store. Mi
