The nresent is a eolden epoch of
Deace. In all this broad country of
ours no battles are raEinsr. No war
ring hosts are desolating this lovely
land Xelther is there any immediate
prospect of war. But men
have not as yet learned to beat their
swords into plow shares" for. as yet
the millenium seems a arreat way ou
There is no predicting the hour when
even in this tranquil republic it may
be necessary to "let slip the dogs of
war" for the preservation of our rights
and liberty?.
It Is essential then that the martial
spirit that ever animates the souls of
the American people be kept alive
There is little danger ot it3 slumber-
inn in the south or indeed in any
section of this powerful union. This
much bv way of preface.
Beginning May 4th 1885 there will be
held in the city of Mobile Ala. the
ereatest inter-state drill ever witness-
ed iu the United States. Sham battles
both cn land and sea will be fought.
It is confidently asserted that every
state in the union will be represented
there. The pnzes foot up 12000
Accommodations for 20000 people are
beinor arranged.
To this great military contest the
Austin Grays wish to go. A prize ot
$K00 is offered the successful com
panv that never before won an inter
state drill. This is the prize that the
Grays are longing to take. Their
chances to win it are bright. It
unnecessary to enter upon any eulo-
giums of this fine company. It is a
home institution and deserves th
generous support of every patriotic
cilizm of the Lanital city.
. On the 2nd of March as evarybody
knows tue-oorner-stone of our grand
state-house will be laid with cere
monies of the most imposing order
As -a most lit finale of his glorious
day. the Grays mean to givean-exni

Young blood Is ever prone to rash
ness. In tho enthusiasm of youth
things will often be said and done
that the soberer judgment of older
heads are bound to condemn. The in
traduction of Senator Pfeuffer's bill
relating to the .university was a sig
nal of anger among the students per
haps without a single exception. It
is understood that they intended to
hold an "indignation meeting" and
denounce the author of the measure
It was even said that in their wrath
these Texas boys intended to burn the
sage senator iron JNew uraunieia in
effigy. This would have been very
wrong; besides it wouldn't have been
right to use one of Mars Twain s la
cetious phrases.
But some of the elders in the insti-
tution got wind of the affair and per-
suaded the boys not to. They did
hold a meeting however. No doubt
things were said that the man from
Comal would not have approved had
he been present. Eemarks made ia
the "heat of passion" perchance that
the senator would willingly have
omitted from any biographical sketch
in which he figured as principal. Yet
this was all. No scathing resolu-
tions were offered to the effect that
the author of the bill in any way re-
sembled an animal noted for its long
.ears and .powerful voice. They didn't
even bring ."alliteration's artful aid"
into play and dub it Pfeuffer's folly.
But all the same there was a stern
and unyielding feeling of resentment
pervading the souls of the university
men. They have put themselves on
record. They are forninst the bill.
They are right. . ;

as presenting a most favorable outlook.

may be desired for stock raising or

favorably a bill to extend the time for

The-report that the Galveston sena-

discredited in the least and the matter
of urging congress to secure water

now looked upon as eminently wise

The committee on the Terrell asy
lum will ask in their report for about
8180000 to fence six hundred acres of
land build necessary outhouses fur

with neaters and gas fixtures and for

of the new capitol building was freely
discussed in the senate caamber last
night and the only " question of dif-
ference that arose was not as to the
propriety of the change but the cost
attending same. This is the point on
which the controversy arises and it is
not likely the problem will be solved
with out a struggle.
The bill introduced in the senate to
annul and cancel jatents issutd on
land situated in Greer county is likely
to receive its death blow at tne hands
of the committee as it is alleged that
the legislature has no power to exer-
cise any such authority. However
thi3 may be the gentlemen who hod
the patents and have located certifi-
cates are not bothering their heads
about the matter.
There will positively be fun in the
house next Wednesday when the bill
making it compulsory to employ fe-
male clerks comes up for debate. From
all that can be gathered regarding the
views of the members it is more than
probable that the bill will go through
by a small majority. Several speeches
will be made pro and con and the ora-
tion in particular of cno of the young-
est representatives on the floor prom-
ises to be rich and racy.
The committee on stock and stock-
raising at its meeting last night re
ceived several letters from citizens
in different parts of the state in favor
of a herd law. One patriotic indi-
vidual from Kimball county modestly
requested the legislature to build a
railroad in his baillwtck.on the ground
that at present he wa not within
convenient distance of market for
the sale of his products. All the let-
ters referred to were gently laid away
in the waste-paper basket.
In the house last night several mem-
bers frankly ocknowledged being op-
posed to the department of insurance
statistics and history on its present
basis and volunteered the opinion
that the little hatchet of the "econo-
mists" would top off this institution
from the future pay-rolls of Texas. A
journalist present at the time said he
would give the requisite bonds to dis-
charge all the duties of the office just
as satisfactorily as they were con-
ducted now for the modest salary ot
$2000 a year in other words that he
would run the entire department for
that amount.. Here is a pointer for
Rutabaga. . .
Any person desiring to "purchase
any of the watered or dry land mray
do so by making his application in
writing and filing tne aame with the
surveyor of the land district in which
such land is situated giving an accu-
rate description - of the same
and such person shall pay one-
thirtieth of the principal of the pur-
chase price for the land and deliver
his obligation to the surveyor for the
balance one thirtieth of- which Is to
Be paid on the first day of . each suc-
ceeding year until the whole amount
is paid .and intt rest at the rate of 5 per
ceut per annum. Any such purchaser
who niav improve and reside on the
land three years shall have the right'
to discharge his obligation by pay-
ment of the full amount. The failure
of any such purchaser to pay the in-
stallments of-principnl shall not make
a forfeitue of the land until the whole
amount is du but the failure to
pty interest will make -a forfeiture.
Any purchaser who has paid three
years'- interest ' shall have the right to
sell tha land..
The university bill Introduced yes-
terday provides that the university at
Austin the A. & M. college the Gal-
veston medical department and the
colored branch to be located shall con-
stitute the University of Texav The
government of the institution shall be
by the Texas University board com-
posed of the state board of education
superintendent of public instruction
and a chancellor to be elected. The
governor is made president of the
board which shall have anthoritv to
establish the departments of the uni
versity and regulate aud prescribe the
curriculum of studies to be pursued
and appoint professors and officers and
establish rules for the management
and government of the university.
It provides for a high school in each
congressional district to be controlled
by an auxiliary professor to be ap-
pointed by the board provided there
is a suitable building 'already erected.
and that the citizens of the district
support and maintain an adequate
corps of teachers for such school. It
makes the state treasurer the custo
dian ot the university fund and pro
vides that the fes of admission into
the university shall not exceed thirty-
dollars except inlaw and medical
departments where they sha'l be fixed
at such bgures as to make those de-
partments self-supporting. The sal-
aries of officers professors
and employes of the univer-
sity are fixed as fol.ows:
Chancellor S2500; proctor. S150U;
three professsors 82200 each; two pro-
asors S2000 each one male and one
female assistant 1000 each; janitor.
$400; two employes for service in the
university and grounds 5fa(0: eleven
auxiliary professors $1500 each; two
protessor3 in tne law department
when the special fund arising for the
p-iyment of the professors' salaries
therein shall justify their employment
such amount as may be uxed by tne
university board and in the medical
department as many profes-sors and at
such salaries as may be determined by
the university board to be paid in the
same manner as the professors in the
law department.
THE LOST FOILND.
Air. C. II. Miller I lie Missing Man Tunis
Up iu Slireveport.
The readers of The Statesman are
alrerdy conversant with the facts re
garding the lae mysterious disappear
ance of Mr. C. H. Miller. Hi3 wife
was fearful he had met foul play
Yesterday a Statesman reporter saw
her. She" was smiling and happy and
said she had got a letter from her hus-
band. He wrote from Shreveport
La stating that he wa3 iagdwl-'
health and lelt Austin on account ot
his business troubles. Mrs. Miller
will probably join her husband ere
long. He has already gone into bus.
iness at Shreveport.
A POSSIBLE VACANCY.
Rumor that Judge West will Hesign
If is Meat on the Supreme Bench.
The indisposition of Judge West of
the supreme court has given rise to a
rumor that at an early day. the bench
of Texas will lose his services. It is
given out that he desires to be relieved
of the duties of that exalted ol'siee
which he has so long honored and
that on his return from San Antonio
(whither he has gone for the benefit
of his health) he will send in his resig
nation to the governor. Y hat trutn
there is in this report remains to be
seen and at present The Statesman
merely gives it for for what it is
worth hoping however that it may
prove unfounded. At tne same tune
there is some credence attached to the
matter as is evideuced by the fact
that the friends of Judge Watts of
Dallas (at present a member of the
court of appeals) are working energet
ically to have that gentleman appoint
ed in the event of a vacancy arising as
indicated.

A rumor was in circulation at the
temporary capital last evening to tha
effect that Gen. Geo. B.-McCiellan of
New Jersey would be invited by Gov
Ireland to act on the joint commission
of investigation as to the ownership of
Greer county. It 13 understood teat

th? "Country adjoining tue lied river
and the further fact that at one time
he actually surveyed the disputed ter
ritory. It is also said that the general
has on more than one occasion ex
pressed himself as favorable to the
claims of Texas and did so . from his
thorough knowledge of Greer county
boundary lines lhere is sonmdouot
however that he would even if of
fered the post consent to serve acd
the aspirants for the office need no-
therefore lose heart because of the
rumor in question. There is hope for
them yet.
ABOUT GAMBLING-
What a Sporting 3lan in Austin lias
to say on tho object.
It is frequently well to get the
opinions of all sorts of people. B
hearing every side of a question by
listening to dissussions from every
point ol view the subject can be coin
prehended in its entirety.
Just now the regulation of gam
bung is a topic that interests every
body. The present legislature pro
poses to deal with it. In regard to
the most diverse views are held. One
theory is to make it a felony ; another
is to pass a license law.
Y esterday a reporter meeting
up with a well known mem
ber of the sporting fraternity aske'
his ideas on the subject. The other
responded in substance as follows
"Gambling is I admit an evil. It has
flourished a long time however and
seems difficult to entirely break up.
You ask me what 1 think ot the pro
posed bill to make gaming a felony
I don't think it will do. Let them
pass this bill and what will be the re
sult? lou are doubtless aware tn?.i
there are various kinds of gambling.
Some- time ago the distinction
was drawn clearly and
correctly in The Statesman. There
are tnea in all cities who run fair
games. There are others so-called
gamblers who are really thieves
Fakirs is the word generally used to
designate them. Now suppose gam
ing is made" a felony. The proprietors
of the better classof these establish-
ments will close up. They are
not going to take any chance s on go-
ing to the penitentiary. Tuey will
quit the business rather than run the
risk of being convicted as felons. But
wrll the fakirs do this? Will the
keepers of low gambling hells where
drunken countrymen are fleeced shut
up shops ? Not by an overwhelming
majority. On th9 contrary
these robbers will increase and mult iply.-
They are generally the hardest
kind of characters and are willing to
run any risk. The vice instead ot be-
ing suppressed will only flourish
in an aggravated form. I am not tell-
ing you this for buncombe. It i3 as
certain to be' the result as the sun
shines above us.
But if on the other hand gambling
is licensed and the tax be put to a
sufficiently high figure only responsi-
ble men men who will be interested
in preserving the reputation of their
houses for square dealing can engage
in the business. This will drive the
fakirs out of the business. The li-
censed sporting men will combine
against them and their occupation
will be gone. It will be an easy mat-
ter then to enforce the law for back
of it will lie public opinion. Again
the money arising -from licenses
will swell the revenues of the state to
an enormous figure. Why license the
sale of liquor aud deny it to gaming y
Is'the one any greater evil than tDe
other? They go hand ia hand.
As the law now standi the gam-
blers are jerked up ccca&iocally and
fined. Who gets the .money? The
prosecuting attorney and the other
court officers. The state only gets a
part.. License it and it is all turned
over into the coffers of the general
treasury. It then goes to the public
good and not to the private purses of
individuals.
These are my views and you can
take them for what they are worth
Other arguments might be adduced
but the foregoiEg will do for this
time." So the interview was ended.

was fluent of speech of winning ad

none that were ever talked publicly.
But in other cities a great howl has
been made. In San Antonio the pa-
pers intimated that the carried
off more than her t.hare

an entertainment for the benefit of
the local military. The last wail
comes from Dallas. It seems that the

hat Mrs. Howe's claim to being a
descendant of Gen. Winfield Scott
was tinged witn romance to tnis
it seems Mrs. Howe's husband took

Instead of getting one he got a

proceedings and wound up by saying
it had discharged a solemn duty by

REGENT'S KEMONSTKANCE
Againit lofrlendly Legislation Ir
Wooten Invites fall Inspection of
the University
The following communication from
J2.-bo-W"uoien sent in yesterday
to the senate i3 self-explanatory. It
is a well-written document and should
command the earnest consideration of
the parties addressed:
o tha Hon. Bamett Gibbs Prcsid lit and
members of tho t-euate ol the Mineteeuth
l.t uUlature of l'exas.
( )n J auuary 20th last your honor
able body passed a resolution in-
troduced by Senator George Pfeuf
fer chairman of the committee
on education in the following words:
Resolved 1 hat the committee on
education be and the"sauie is hereby
requested to make a full inspection
into the condition affaii'3 and wants
of the state university with authority
to send for persons and papers and to
report as soon as practicable by bill or
otherwise. This risolution waj
according to its terms placed for exe
cution in tne nanus or tne committee
on education and as I am informed
upoa inquiry the committee referred
the proposed inspection to a sub-com
mittee.
As the only member of the board of
regents ot the university ot Texa3
now present at the capital and as
fully representing what 1 know to be
the sentiment and desire of all my as-
sociates I b?g to call the attention of
the senate aud of its commiteees to
the following facts:
1st. The University of Texas has
been and now is under the control of a
board of regents by whom from time
to time its faculty has been selected
its expenses incurred and paid and its
general management directed.
2d. Its faculty has been selected
from the mott eminent and promis-
ing literary scientific and classical
scholars of America and are by their
attainments age capabilities and am-
bition worthy to till positions in any
institution.
3rd. Its students hayebeen andare
composed of the most aspiring and in
genious youths or this and otner
states and their assidious labors have
proved them worthy of the benefac-
tions of the state.
4th. The regents who have from
time to time constituted the execu-
tive board of the university have
been men without political local or
personal prejudices; and have endeav
ored to administer tneir trusts with
noothex object and purpose than those
of public weal and the best advance
ment of the state.
They have come from remote parts
of the state and have served without
compensation beyond their actual
expenses. So far as I know no pro
fes3or of the faculty and no student
has evec been called on to testify to
any fact connected with the condition
of the university. I am not advised
whether the bill (senate bill No. 192)
introduced by Senator Pfeuffer is in
tended to respond to the resolution
introduced by him on January 20 but
if it is then I respectfully state that
10 such full inspection into the
alfairs of the University of Texas has
been had as would warrant a measure
so revolutionary in its provisions and
so subversive of the present law on
the subject 3 the bill proposed
In behalf of the board of regents of
the faculty and ot the students l in
voke the full inspection and investi
gation contemplated by the resolution.
and to that end for the regents I ex
tend andfassure to every member Of
the senate eyery possible opportunity
and means of information as to the
present and past management of the
university its expenditures. its
oourse of instruction the personal and
and professional character and qnal
ifications of its faculty and in fact
any and everything calculated to
throw light on the subject of its
proper administration.
Until a full inspection is had and a
thorough hearing granted from all
sources and especially from those
who have labored most earnestly and
patriotically for the establishment
and success of the institution 1 . pro
test against any action by your honor
able body calculated by intendment
or implication to destroy the present
organization of the university or to
seriously impair its efficiency. I have
the honor to be most respectfully
l our obedient servant
TllOft. D. iVoottex
University Regent.
".Monstrous Monopolies:" So Called.
San Antonio rrxpress.
Ths Dallas Times is on its high
horse and charging about after the
fashion of a Georgia major on a
muster day and demanding that the
legislature '-investigate the monstrous
Associated Rress monopoly." It will
be a sad day for these kickers about
the "Associated Press monopoly" when
an investigation is made for it will
show the people the true status of the
situation and remove the cloak from
such papers and show that they have
been by their fiery reviling only
cloaking their own lack of enterprise.
There has never been atimeinthelast
eight or ten years at least when any
afternoon paper in any of the
cities in Texas where a telegraph
line runs could not get reports at as
reasonable rates as any paper taking
them by paying for them many of
them have been solicited to take re-
ports and there are two or three
press associations that would send a
report to any morning paper in Texas
that would pay for the news and the
the telegraph company for -transmitting
it. But the afternoon papers of
Texas with one or two exceptions
take their new3 "By Telegraph" up
bodily from the morning papers pay
not a cent for it and then divide their
time between finding fault with the
report and abusing the "Associated
press monopoly" from which they get
it for nothing. They take and use
daily what costs the. morning papers
many thousands of dollars a
year without giving even a
line or word of credit to which
however The Express ha3
never ytt raised the slightest cbjec-J
tion and tnen revile the report be-
cause it is not more to their taste
which we think n ungrateful to say
the least. . The Express hopes the fiery
Dallas Times will have this wholg as-
sociated pns3 business "ventilated."
The more the people know about it
the better they will like it. They
would find that to these 'monstrous
monopolies" they are indebted for their
great joewspapers that without them
there would not be a dozen newspa-
pers ia the United Stales that could
give the news of the day as it cccurs
iiuj '.iiiiij; i:t3 iu tut? eMrlll tvtn lliai
the Texas dadifs do now. Certainly
no paper in I exas coui-i do it and the
Texas people would i ave to wait for
their news until (Lev could receive pa-
pers from St. Louis. Chicago New
York or some other oi the half-dozen
very large cities of th: country where
only newspapers could 1-e published.
Secretary Chandler's answer to con-
gress that the Tallapoosa was sunk
"while on her regular freighting
cruise" is not exactly satisfying the
country. He is getting roundly abased
here and there; and no wonder. The
reply is o. briSUnt piece of audacity
even for Chandler ana it would have
been wier for him to hvi y nothing if he
could not invent a bsttJr explanation.
Nobody has fretted much :-bout the
matter anyway; but the -inking of the-
Tallapoosa occurred not &o lohg ssgo
that the people do not f ill remember
that the S' cre'ary o: me navy nis
family and a parcy of ppisonal friends
had been taking a "pleasure jaunt
along' the New Lnglaud coast in her
for weeks and that her cargo when
she went down consisted tor the most
part of twenty-eight cases of wine
which the junketers had been unable
to finish.

A Genuine BncoeBS.
Three years ago such a thing as a
cheap and serviceable family dye was
hardly known and the ladies of our
household bailed with delight the in-
troduction of the now well known
"Diamond Dyes." By judicious
advertising in The Statesman
of Austin and a very large
number of other suitable news
papers (through the agency o-
H. P. Hubbard) the proprietors now
have a pleasant trade in dyes alone of
more than a million packages a month
or over half a million dollars per
annum.
Such is the power of the press for a
good article even if it does sell tor the
insignificant sum of ten cents. In
addition to their varied uses for col-
oring all . sorts of clothing whether
silk woolen or cotton in the house-
hold line they are used for coloring
dripd leave? grasses feathers Easter
eggs bair leather etc. New uses are
constantly being discovered for them
such as art work coloring photo-
graphs equally well with the high
cost paints making colored varnishes
wood-stains and many other things
"too numerous to mention."
They are the leading dyes in the
market and the proprietors are ? justi-
fied In saying that they are the purest
at rongest and fastest of all dyes.
Messrs. Wells Richardson Jb Co. have
some very entertain'pg'and instructive
circulars which with a sample of
thirty-two coiors can be obtained by
sending stamp to them at .Burlington
Vermont or.forten cents a handsome
colored cabinet photograph or sample
