KNOWLEDGE
Brings comfort and improvement and
tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many who live bet-
ter than others and enjoy life more with
less expenditure by more promptly
adapting the world’s best products to
the needs of physical being will attest
the value to health of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in the
remedy Syrup of Figs.
Its excellence is due to its presenting
in the form most acceptable and pleas-
ant to the taste the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties of a ]>erfect lax-
ative; effectually cleansing the system
dispelling colds headaches and fevers
ana permanently curing constipation.
It has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval of the medical
profession because it acts on the Kid-
neys Liver and Bowels without weak-
ening them and it is perfectly free from
every objectionable substance.
Syrup of Figs is for sale by all drug-
gist's in 50c and $1 bottles but it is man-
ufactured by the California Fig Syrup
Co. only whose name is printed on every
package also the name Syrup of Figs
and being well informed yon will not
accept any substitute if offered.

BONDS OR NO BONDS?
Injunction to Prevent their Isaue—
Carlisle Trying to Get Bids.
Yesterday’s press dispatches thus
speak of the bond question and Car-
lisle’s attempt to get blds from New
York bankers:
INJUNCTION PROCEEDINGS.
Arguments were today heard before
Judge Cox of the District Supreme
court on the application of Grand
Master Workman Sovereign and T. B.
McGuire of the Knights of Labor for
au injunction to restrain Secretary
Carlisle from issuing $50000000 in
bonds as proposed in his recent bond
circular.
Only a score of persons heard the
arguments. The applicants for in-
junction were represented by Senator
Allen of Nebraska; Judge Jere Wil-
son Judge C. C. Cole of Des Moines
10. all of whom took part iu the argu-
ment.
The court was asked to compel Sec-
retary Carlisle to show cause why the
writ asked should not be granted.
Counsel Wilson in opening the case
referred to the fact that there was no
other judicial tribunal to which the
applicants had resort under the circum-
stances. lie declared that no other
business would sustain as much in-
jury or damage by the bond issue as
that of the miners who form a large
percentage of the 30000 or more mem-
bers of the Knights of Labor. Though
the Secretary in announcing that
bonds would be issued cited the act
of January 14 1875 providing for
specie payment resumption as au-
thority for his action neither this act
nor that of July 14 1870 authorizing
the refunding of the national debt con-
ferred the authority.
Counsel Mills then read the applica-
tion. "The issue of the bonds as pro-
posed” said the application “involves
an indebtedness approximately of $ 7 5-
000000 including principal and inter-
est. Your orators complain that on
January 17 1894 the defendant John
Griffin Carlisle Secretary of the
Treasury caused to be issued pub-
lished and offered for pubic subscrin-
tion an issue of United States bonds
to the amount of $50000000 redeem-
able in coin at the pleasure of the
government after ten years from date
of issue beaming interest at 5 per cent
per annum and dated February 11894.
Senator Allen who followed referr-
ed to the reserve fund as a mere ca-
price of the Secretary who he said
was without authority and absolutely
powerless to issue obligations of the
Governmtnt.
Judge Cox reserved bis decision
and announced that to-morrow or
Wednesday he would state his con-
clusion in the case.
CABLISLE ASKING BIDS OF NEW YORK
BANKERS.
A score of the leading bankers of
the city met Secretary of the Treasury
John G. Carlisle in New York yester-
day to discuss the Secretary’s pro-
posed issue of bonds. None of the
banks of this city made a bid for the
bonds when Secretary Carlisle made
his public announcement. It is an
open secret that this was a great dis-
appointment’ to the Secretary and
therefore the bankers met expecting
some proposition to induce them to
subscribe generously to the issue.
They were agreed that they would not
take bonds iu any quantity unless they
received their usual commission for
handling them. They expect too that
the Secretary will clear up any ques-
tion of the legality of the bond issue.
At the conclusion of the meeting
between Carlisle and the bankers
no one who had been present was wil-
ling to give any information as to
what had taken place. Mr. Carlisle
declined to see any newspaper men.
HORRIBLE MURDER.
A special dispatch from Pittsburg
Kan. gives details of one of the most
horrible murders ever committed iu
that state. The awful deed was com-
mitted early Sunday morning and
whs discovered a few hours la*er. The
victim was Mr. William A. Chapman
o"e of the most prominent citizens of
Pittsburg. Ills dead body was found
in his store room with his throat cut
and his body fearfully cut aud “lashed
and covered with coagulated blood.
Mr. Chapman was the proprietor of a
grocery and also was treasurer for
the A. O. U. W. of Pittsburg. Ills
residence adjoined bis store. For
some time past he bail been sleeping
In his storn on account of the many
burglaries recently.
Sunday morning about 7 o’clock
Mrs. Chapman went to the store to
call her busband aud no response be-
ing made she aroused a couple of
neighbors who forced the door when
a horrible sight awaited them. On
the floor behind the counter Ina large |

pool of blood lay the lifeless body of
Mr. Chapman with his throat cut hie
■ hands tied behind him a gag iu his
mouth his body hacked to pieces
i with a knife and a wound on the eye
. apparently made with a club. Rob-
’ bery is believed to have prompted the
murder.
The citizens are much wrought up
over the horrible affair and blood
( hounds have been sent for. If the
I murderers are caught they will re-
ceive summary justice.
THE OTHER SIDE.
i The old inaxim that there are two
I sides to every debatable question
holds good with the farmer as well
as with every other kind o- condition
of men only according to one of their
own number they are too much given
to look on one side thereof and that
the dark side. The farmer who
makes this statement goes on to give
the other side and in an open letter
to one of his state (Texas) papers
does so in the following apt and ex-
cellent manner:
Let us examine and compare the
good old times of 10-cent cotton with
the present day. We got SSO for a
500-pnund bale of cotton in those
dajsand nractically nothing for the
seed unless we returned them as fertil-
izers to the soil which we cultivated.
At present putting cotton at 7 cents
per pound and the seed at $lO per ton
we would get S4O lor onr bale of cot-
ton and thi« is placing it at a lower
estimate than a large part of the pres-
ent crop has been sold for. We will
now compare the prices of sone of
the leading articles of commerce
which farmers have to buy. With the
single exception of bacon ffe prices
upou al) have been reduced nearly or
quite one-half and this exception is iu
favor of the farmer. Why should the
farmer be buj ing 15-ceut bacon when
he can raise his own meat and have a
surplus to sell? Here is a good open-
ing for Texas farmers to Improve their
past methods of confining themselves
alone to cotton. Sugar is now from
4to 6 cents ; formerly Bto 12 cents
per pound. Flour is from $4 to $5 a
barrel;formerly $lO to sl2. Calico
4 to 5 cents per yard; formerly 10 to
12 cents and so on. Might enumerate
many articles of necessity which ‘he
farmer is compelled to buy aud which
have fallen iu price from 25 to 100 per
cent since the departure of the good
old times of long ago. Let us learn
the spirit of contentment and to ap-
preciate the blessings which we already
possess.
We offer the above ideas to our own
farming frieude aud suggest that they
read and ponder over them and if we
mistake not they will find both truth
aud comfort iu the above lines.
Frozen to Death.
Fulton Ark. January 29.—The first
news of loss of life by the cold weath-
er reached here last night when it was
reported from upper Red River that
two negroes names unknown em-
ployed in a logging camp were dis-
covered frozen to death on a raft thir-
ty-five miles from here. The bodies
were frozen stiff when discovered.
In Olden Times
People overlooked the importance of
permanently beneficial effects and
were satisfied with transient action;
but now that it is generally known
that Syrup of Figs will permanently
cure habitual constipation well in.
formed people will not buy other lax-
atives which act for a time but finally
injure the system.
JERSEY COWS HERE.
Mr. A. W. Halbert lias arrived iu
the city with his fine lot of pure bred
Jersey cows which are now ou ex-
hibition at the Cotton Belt stock
yards. These cattle are of the finest
breed come and see them.

f CUTTING DOWN PENSIONS.
s Fifteen Millions of Uncle Sam's Dol-
s lars to be Saved the Government.
5 Congressman Sayers of Texas
■ chairman of the House appropriation
9 committee has just reported the ap-
propriation bill for pensions. He and
’ his sub-committee have been very busy
1 on appropriation bills and in the work
5 done the Democratic promise of econ-
■ oniy seems to have been kept steadily
in mind. The pension bill reported
yesterday provides for the appropria-
tion of $15000000 lose than was ap-
propriated at the short session of last
t congress. This is due Congressman
I Sayers says to an exercise of more
[ care in the granting of more pensions
. by the present pension commissioner
i than has heretofore been exercised
> and moreover there is a falling off in
the number on the rolls by death.
i Congressman Sayers as chairman
. of the appropriation committee is the
head of the sub-committee which has
. special charge of the sundry civil bill.
This bill when presented will show a
reduction against the appropriations
made at the short session of some-
thing in the neighborhood of SIOOOO
000 probably about 9500000. The
bill as agreed on by the sub-committee
will be approved by the general com
mlttee without any material change.
The actual amount of reduction In the
two bills will be about $24500000.
Mr. Sayers is confident that his com-
mittee will be able to report a reduc-
tion in the other appropriation bills
against those of the short session of
the last congress of about $11000000
This added to the reduction iu the
sundry civil aud pension bills will
make about $35000000 from his com-
mittee alone. The appropriation bills
in charge of Mr. Sayer’s committee
are the pensions sundry civil legisla-
tive executive Unifications district
of Columbia and deficiencies. It is
expected to reduce the deficiencies
$10000000 and the legislative execu-
tive and judicial $1000000 making
the $11000000 mentioned. The ap-
propriation bills not in the hands of
the Sayers commiltee are the river and
harbor the agricultural the diplomat-
ic aud consular the postoffice array
aud navy bills. If the safe spirit of 1
economy marks the work done by the
committee having these appropria-
tions in charge as has marked the
work of Sayers committee then the 1
reduction below the appropriation 1
made at the short session of the fifty-
second congress ought to go to $45-
000000 at the very least. 1

AN IMPORTANT RULING.
I
At the May term of the United
Stats District Court at Ardmore I. T.
one John Bannerman was convicted I
on a charge of cattle stealing aud sen-
tenced to one year’s imprisonment iu '
the Federal penitentiary at Anamosa
la. and fined $ 1000. i
Ou May 2he was delivered at. the 1
penitentiary. Through ins attorneys 1
here a writ of habeas corpus was ap- |
plied for to Hon. Oliver P. Shiras (
United States judge for the northern <
district of lowa on the ground that
no United States court could sentence
a person convicted of crime to im-
prisonment iu a penitentiary unless
the punishment prescribed by law for
more than twelve months. Judge
Shiras refused the writ. Bannerman's
attorneys then applied to the United
States supreme court for au original
writ of habeas corpus on the same
grounds.
After considerable delay the court
granted the writ and discharged the
defendant. This settles a question of
law of much importance both to the
courts and the public. Heretofore all '
the judges before whom cases of ]
larceny in the ludiau country have
been tried and convicted have uni- <
formly sentenced the defendant to the 1
penitentiary. It is of interest to the
public for under this construction of
tho law oue man can steal a trainload 1
or any number of cattle ia the Indian
territory and the maximum punish-
ment is a fine aud twelve months in 1
jail. An effort will be made to have
congress amend the law. .

CORRECTION ABKED.
Editor Texarkana Democrat:
Dear Sir.—T read with amazement
the last paragraph in today’s Demo-
CBAT under the heading of “Charged
with Swindling” in which U publish-
ed the statement that the Bemis re-
ferred to was the same man who in-
volved the Sulphur Lumber Co. so
hopelessly in debt and was at the
head tho Rolllug Mill at Jefferson
T“x. which alto went under. I will
pass over the first part of the article
in question and confine myself to the
last paragraph because the first will
be decided in court at the proper
time. Ido not think there is any one
in a better position to deny the truth
of all the charges contained in the
whole article and I do most emphat-
ically deny that J. 11. Bemis involved
eilher the Sulphur Lumber Co. or the
Rolling Mills referred to but on the
contrary both mills were and are in
his debt now and haye been for years.
1 know J. H. Bemis and any person
or persons that speak or publish any-
thing that reflects on his honesty
friendship or integrity do not know
know him as the w ritcr does or are
wil fully in error. In partial justice
to a good friend aud citizen of this
city I ask you to please give this let-
ter space in ’•our next issue.
Yours
Thomas Byrne.

THE TEXARKANA POSTOFFICE.
As stated several days since we
hope to soon have the convenience of
free postal delivery here. Inspector
will be here in a few days to examine
into the matter. There is little doubt
but that we have the necessary popu-
lation; it is positively known that rev-
enues of the office is more than is re-
quiredas we are informed requirement
is that all free delivery offices shall yield
at least SIOOOO revenue per annum.
We learn from Postmaster Kelly that
from Jan. 1 1893 to Jan. 1 1894 rev-
enues at this office footed up over
SIBOOO. So we may expect free de-
livery.
But there is another matter we have
heretofore referred to several times
that should be attended to.
Since the consolidation of the two
offices no additional clerks have been
allowed although double the amount
of postal business is done. Instead of
three there should be at least five
clerks allowed. We believe the post
office department will rectify this mis-
take at once. As it is the postmaster
is forced to hire additional clerks at
his own expense. This is not fair or
right. With only three clerks we
would have very poor service indeed
aud present incumbent and his prede-
cessor who have gone to extra ex-
pense iu giving proper service should
be reimbursed for same. “Uncle Sam”
can afford to “tote fair” with this office
as it yields a big revenue.

TEXARKANA HAS A SAY.
With a view to the establishment
and endowment of a Cumberland
Presbjterial college in the district
comprised in the Marshall Presbytery
the committee appointed by that body
to formulate plans aud perfect ar-
rangements for said college have is-
sued a circular letter to each of the
several towns aud cities coutalned in
this Presbytorial district setting forth
tho above facts and giving a general
description ot the proposed school at
the same time inviting each of them
caring to comptte for the location of
said school to offe" such inducements
as may bo seen tit to give to this end.
Texarkana is the only city out of a
half dozen possibly desirable locations
that has not seen fit to make an offer
for this most excellent aud desirable
educational institulion. The commit-
tee meets at Marshall Texas today to
consider the several propositions sub-
mitted and determiue upon the one
which they will refer to the Presby-
tery with a recommendation to ac-
cept. This however by no means
closes or settles the matter which
will not bo finally passed upon by the
Presbytery before June. In the mean-
time Texarkana or any other com-
munity may submit au offer of induce-
ment to the Presbytery direct to be
voted upon ou final consideration of
the question. Os course the commit-
tee's recommendation will carry some
influence with it that would have to
lie overcome by superior inducement
on the part of our city. Now the lo-
cation of this school would be a most
desirable aud excellent thing for Tex-
arkana which though not centrally
located is by far the most convenient
location owing to railway facilities to
and from every county In the Presby-
terial district which embraces the
counties of Harrison Marion Cass
and a part of Bowie (including Texar-
kana) Upsher Camp Morns Panola
Milter county Arkansas; and Caddo
DeSoto and a part of Rod River par-
ishes Louisiana. With this school
Texarkana’s future as an educational
center would be assured. The ques-
tion now arises why should we not
secure it? It is certainly in the city’s
power to offer such inducements as to
make its se'ection morally certain. It
reniaius to be seen whether or not
Marshall or Jeflerson shall distance
Texarkana in this matter.

Man’s Inhumanity to Himself.
The most inhuman outrages
which would disgrace the sav-
age man perpetrates upoh his own
svstom by swallowing drastic purga-
tives wtiich convulse his stomach ago-
nize his intestines and weaken his sys-
tem. Many people constantly do this
under the impression that medica-
ments only which are violent tn their
action and particularly cathartics are
of any avail. Irreparable injury to
health is wrought under this mistaken
Idea. The laxative which most nearly
approaches the beneficent action of
nature Is Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters
which is painless but thorough and
invigorates the intestinal canal instead
of weakening and irritating it The
liver and the stomach share iu the be-
nign discipline instituted by this
comprehensive medicine whose health-
ful Influence is felt throughout the
system. Malarious rheumatic kidney
and nervous complaints succumb to it.
