BRENHAM DAILY BANNER
J. O. RANKIN, Proprietor.
Tharsdar Morning, May 30.
I . -
A crisis in Gorman politics is re-
garded ns certain this Summer.
Jacob Hexson was Landed by a
mob atEndicott City, Md., Monday.
The supreme court has held the
Geary exclusion net to be constitu-
tional.
The general assembly of the
Presbyterian church has adjourned
at Pittsburg to meet next year at
Saratoga. _
In Routt county, Colorado, Mon-
day, four men were seriously hurt in
a collision between cattlc men and
sheep men.
The prospect of the Bun flower
ever becoming the national flower
has been killed by Oscar Wilde's
favoritism and his subsequent dis-
grace.
The precept, "Let all the ends
thou a'm'st at be thy country's, thy
God's and truth's would, if followed
work a considerable reformation in
OInoy and Carlisle, respectively.
Theke is little doubt that St.
Louis has the rail, the best jockey
and the lowest weight in the Nation-
al Convention Handicap. St. Louis
should win the conventions of both
parties in a walk.
Ir you keep your eyo on Kansas
during the recent spell of weather
you must have noticed that she
maintained her lead as usual. The
other states were satisfied with
merely phenomehal rises and falls of
temperature, but the pood old
cyclone stuto was hotter than the
hottest, solder than the coldest, sud-
dener than the suddenest. Then on
Friday afternoon, just for good
measure, sho throw in a '-blinding
snowstorm." Kansas forever ! There
is only one of her in the union.
In Russia, if a man marries an
heiress he gets no chance to own
her money. There is no marriage
settlement; sho controls her property
throughout her life. This financial
independence of the wife has con-
duced greatly to happy marriages.
It is believed that among the well-
to-do people in Russia thero are
more happy marringes than in most
other countries. Women are em-
ployed in telegraph offices and in
postoffices in Russia, because cor-
porations find them more accurate
in details and more careful to please
customers.
The Iiaird Star contends that tLe
next democratic platform should
be plain and unequivocal on
the money question. If our party
is in favor of free coinage let the
platform say so in unvarnished En-
glish. If we are to change front
aod steal the republicans main thun-
der—a gold standard—let us make
it so plain that no one will make any
mistake about where wo stand. This
thing of wabbling around on a
bimetal fence is uncomfortable and
sometimes hard to explain to the
boys at the forks of the creek who
are expected to do the best part of
the voting.
The Galveston News announces
the closing of a contract for the
erection of a spacious convention
hall in that city, to be completed
and ready for occupancy by August
1. The hall will be twenty-two feet
in height, with a seating capacity of
5,000, the entire floor being devoted
to this purpose. Situated as it is in
the heart of the city, it will fill a long
felt want. A spacious and com-
modious stairway, with landings on
Twenty-fourth street, winding
aroand two large elevators propelled
by electricity, and a third large ele-
vator in the southeast corner of the
hail, serve as communications with
the ground. This hall is ventilated
by fifty Urge windows, located on ail
four side*. The floor space repre-
sent* 10,000 square feet, and shonld
the necessity arise galleries could
easily be constructed, famishing an
additional 4,500 square feet.
While Secretary Carlisle is busily
engaged preparing and delivering
long winded speeches, in support of
Mr. Cleveland's financial policy, tho
cash iu Uncle Sam's treasury grows
smaller and beautifully le-m," and
the "deficit" continues to grow and
flourish like a green bay tree.
At the world's fair thero was a
painting to illustrate sutirade. The
men with a vote showed a group
c insisting of an apparent gentle-
man, a saloon keeper, an anarchist,
an ex-convict and a negro The
non-voters were grouped showing
a pauper, a felon, an Indian, on
idiot and a woman. Was this paint-
ing a true state of affairs ?
TMS HOUSTON RI-UNION.
The largest and grandest assem-
blage of Confederate Veterans ever
congregated together since the late
war was that held at Houston last
week. Almost every State in the
South was represented by some of
her mo3t prominent sons—men who
have attained positions of honor
and distinction in civil life, ns well
as military; and, Houston enter-
tained them grandly, taking into
consideration tho size and immen-
sity of the gathering.
These annual gatherings of the
survivors of tho late war possess so-
cial features that cannot be properly
appreciated by those who do not
belong to the cainpB, or did not see
some of the service and hardships
incident to those rugged days.
Yes, it is a season with them of
pleasure, pride and patriotism,
bringing to their recollection a
thousand blessed memories of the
bright and unforgotten past. Wit-
ness the strong ties of brotherly
love and friendship, one for the oth
er, among these grand old heroes of
a hotly contested "lost cause," as
tho tears unbidden roll down their
"sun browned cheeks" while paying
their last tribute at tho memorial
exercises to those of their departed
comrades, who hnvo crossed the
dark river of death and aro resting
peacefully in elysian fields of over-
lasting happiness and glory. They
knew them and loved them in life,
and now mourn their departure
with sad regret. Verily, is this not
a grand exhibition of American
valor, heroism and devotion ! A
verification of tho biblical injunc
tier, "Love thy brother as thyself."
May the tender memories that
serve to bring together annually
these battle-scarred heroes in gray
continue to grow brighter and dear-
er with each succeeding day, and
that their love of our common
country may at all times stimulate
them to a proper appreciation of
broad-minded patriotism, chivalry,
and a tender love for our native
land.
Pereplrstlon on Nom,
I ran across a now superstition the
other day. It is tho distrust tho Vir-
ginia negroes frevo of persons who
perspiro on their noses. A friond of
mine has lind a really estimable
maid for several months, but the
other day tho mistress found the
maid on tho eve of leaving, and all
because sho had seen bends of per-
spiration on my friend's nose, and
people with noses of that kind are
"moan," a word which to tho Vir-
ginia negro signifies all that is unde-
sirable, untrustworthy and ovil.—

In front of L. J. Ixx!kets residence
in the southwostorn part of the city
last evening a big pair of dun mules
hitched to a two horse wagon ran
away and the driver foil on the ton-
gue. And a negro on hoase hack
undertook to stop them and dashed
by them turning them up towards tho
sidewalk, but while they wero still
running, the little daughter of Mr. I
J. I/>ckett, who was on the walk
dashed out in front of the mules and
succeeded in stopping them, and per
haps saving the life of the driver who
was in a fair way to be killed.

REPUDIATE THE R EPUDIATORS.
Referiing to Spoakcr Crisp's
terview, in which he dcclarcd un-
equivocally for tho freo coinage of
silver, tho Louisville Courier-Jour-
nal, which until a few years ago was
of the strongest advocates of free
silver in the country, says :
If the democratic party had follow-
ed the course proscribed by Mr. Crisp
it would have been dead so long that
almost its very name would have been
forgotten.
This is very nice, coming from a
newspaper which, for some myster-
ious reason, has sacrificed tho cause
of the people and lockod itself body
and soul with the notorious "money
devil ' which it fought so persistent-
ly for so many years.
Tho comment of the Courier-
Journal on Speaker Crisp's inter
view suggests the fact that the
repudiation by the administration
of the democratic platform and its
refusal to adopt the course which
Speaker Crifrp says the people de
maud, has come so near killing the
democratic party that its only hope
of salvation is its utter and absoluto
repudiation of the repudiators. It
did not follow tbe course prescribed
in Mr. Crisp's interview and the
result speaks for itself. It it had
baen truo to its pledges it would
now be in an impreguable position
instead of being mortified, humiN
iated, dejected and routed, after
having allowed the traitors to lead
it into the camp of the enemy.
But the democratic party will bo
restored to vigor and prosperity
after it has kicked the repudiators
out and reorganized on a basis of
honest principles.
