Wednesday Morning, April 4:
"Waller Baker is mentioned as a
candidate for Governor.
There are several Democratic
United States Senators who should
consult the ticker that registers the
quotations of public sentiment
The proposed Chinese treatj is a
striking photograph of the injustice
of the Exclusion act. It is a picture
that thoughtful Americans will not
admire.
Senatorial remarks on the tarifi
are widely quoted these days. It is
also suspected that Senatorial votes
on the same question are liberally
sugar-coated.
The Fort Worth Gazette 8ays:
"Fruit is not all killed by the cold
weather. There will be plenty of
crab apples for the defeated candi-
dates next fall."
Reform must go on in the Pension
Office until the huDgry workers of
the country will not be obliged to
■give up their children's bread tn
support fraudulent idlers.
sugar and taxed raw mater-
ials in a tariff bill passed by men
elected as Democrats will mean their
defeat by Democractic votes. There
is no guesswork about this.
The populist papers refuse to be-
lieve that harmony has been re-
stored, biit when they are snowed
under this fall seeing will be be-
lieving and then they will be ready
to exclaim what fools we mortals be.
The Houston Post asked Gov. O
M. Roberts what he thought of the
harmony results of the Dallas con-
ference, and he replied that the
movement for it was started by his
speech at San Marcos on January 1.
Senator Stewart's advice to Coxey
to trust to the ballot-box in Novem-
ber instead of a tramp across the
country in March shows that the
Nevada crank has occasional lucid
intervals. If Coxey is wise he will
adopt it.
Senator Stewart, of Nevada,
among other things in a letter to
Coxey, advising him to use the bal-
lot instead of marching his helpless
horde to the N itional capital (says:
"The sufferings of the people as a
result of electir g to office men who
do the bidding of the money powers,
which by legislation and administra-
tion have destroyed more than one
half of the metallic money of the
world and cornered the other half.
Twenty years of uninterrupted rule
of banks and bondholders has con-
centrated the wealth of the world
in the hands of the few, and enabled
them to seize the telegraph, the
press and nearly every other avenue
through which the people can ob-
tain information of the coming de-
vices by which the parasites absorb
what the masses produce.''
Gen. Frve in an interview in re-
gard- to his industrial army and
himself says: "All these men are
from Los Angeles direct, except
about fifteen recruits gathered on
the way. The same number has
been expelled from the army for
breach of discipline. Frye says
there are 1500 in San Francisco to
start via the Union Pacific in a few
days, and 400 in Colorado willing
to join them. He denies knowledge
of Coxey or his army; says he is in-
dependent, but expects to unite with
the rest at Washington, when they
are go'ng to demand work. In re
aponse to several questions Gen.
JFryo said: "My name is Louis
Frye and I am 41 years old; was
born in Iowa, but have lived in
California since 1860. This move-
ment for an indnstrial army origi-
nated in the fact that there were
thousands of men in the country
wanting work, and unable to get
it, they had to suffer. They got
together and came to the conclusion
that to go to Washington was the
only way to command attention of
congress to the people. There are
no politics in this movement. "The
general continued:'' "No one party
has helped us more than another.

A Narrow Escape
From Loss of a Limb
Dreadful Case of White Swelling-
A Perfect Cure.
Oivs of the most seriouj forms of scrofula and
one of th« most difficult to cure Is that of white
swelling. Hood's Sarsaparllla has accomplish-
ed many wonderful cures of white swelling,
®ne of which is related below by Mr. B. E.
Thomas, a manufacturer of harnesses, .saddle*,
etc., at Evansville, W. Va. Kead Ids letter:
"C. I. Hood & Co., I.owell, Mass.:
' In l*!-' I was seized with a severe attack ol
white swelling. Kive years later I had to hava
the) flesh ou my limb cut open and the bona
scraped. After the flesh healed up I was not
troubled again until January, 1X92. I was taken
down w ith the grip which settled in the previous-
ly affected limb, sores gathering where them
had been scars, one In particular penetrating to
the bone. The whrtin /rout of my leg from kne«
to ankle seemed to be

THE LAW MUST BE UPHELD.
The war in South Carolina be-
tween the opponents cf the dispens
sary law and Gov. Tillman has
waged bitterly for the past few days
and has resulted in bloodshed. It
is a conflict between the organized
forces of the law and an array of
armed men on the other.
The Fort Worth Gazette, com-
menting on the light, among other
things says: "Should it ever be-
come allowable for the people of a
community to rise against an obnox-
ious system and destroy public
property, as they have done in sev-
eral towns in South Carolina, by
"smashing the dispensaries," there
will be little need to attempt longer
to uphold the social fabric. Chaos
and anarchy begin where organized
resistance to iegal conditions is suN
fered to exiet.
The popular vote in South Caro-
lina sustained the adoption of the
dispensary law by a large majority.
The greater part of this vote came
from the country districts, the
larger towns in the State opposing
it. There has never been a satis-
factory enforcement of the law in
the cities, such as Columbia, Charles-
ton and Edgefield, bdt in the smalK
er towns the country sentiment was
so dominant as to compel at least a
silent acquiescence in the system.
The counties of Darlington and
Florence, the "storm centers" of the
present disturbauce, are in the
northeastern part of the State, and
neither of them hae any town of any
importance.
This outbreak, therefore, appears
not to come from the cities, but
from the country towns, that have
heretofore given but little trouble.
Experience with the dispensary sys-
tem may have turned affection to
scorn. A theory may look pretty
until its admirers have to practice
it, and then they see defects that
they never thought of. It looked
pretty enough to restrain the appe-
tites of victims of alcoholism by re-
quiring them to submit to certain
onerous conditions before they could
get a dram, but when the restrairiers
wanted a dram themselves and
found that the conditions were as
obnoxious to them, their ardor ap
pears to have cooled. That may ac
count for a change of popular feel
ing toward the dispensary system.'

The Austin Statesman says : "It
develops that General Frye's army
are sensitive plants who very much
preferred rounding up Texas at will
until the cold weather of the North
Subsided. For men fired with so
much alleged zeal to right the
wrongs of unemployed and strug-
gling mankind, it somehow seems a
great deal of strained sympathy has
been wasted on them.

•20 CALIFORNIA #30,
Commencing March 1st, 1894, the
Santa Fe' Route will sell first-class
limited tickets from all points in Tex-
as on its main line, aud the Paris
branch, to Los Angeles, San Diego,
San Francisco and intermediate
points, via Purcell and Albuquorque
at the very low rate of $20; round trip
tickets, limited to sixty (60) days, will
be sold at a rate of $35.50.
The Santa Fe' affords unequalled
accommodations and attractions for
California tourists, operating Pullman
Palace Sleepers ana Pullman Tourist
Sleepers, with but one change of cars
from Texas to California.
The exceedingly low rates offered
by the Santa Fe' will suggest Cali-
fornia to the minds of the people of
Texas more than usual, and, of course,
the Mid-Winter Fair, which will bo
open until June 30th, is not to be over-
looked.
Visitors to the "White City" need
not fear being tired with duplicate at-
traction at the Golden Gate.
The World's Fair, Jr., as the San
Francisco Fair is sometimes referred
to, has some buildings that, as works
of architectural art, are said to be
superior to the buildings of the Colum-
bian Exposition, and competent
critics assert that for picturesqueness
aud perfection of landscape effects,
the Mid-Winter display on the shores
of the Pacific excels all previous ef-
fects.
For information regarding tickets,
timetables, and sleeping car accommo-
dations, apply to the nearest Santa
Fe' agent, or address

Colorado, Indian Territory, Okla-
homa, Kansas, Nebraska, and all
points east of Missouri river.
After all, the comfort of a rail-
roadjourney is made up of little
things.
The track is smooth and the
Pullman Sleepers and Free Re-
clining Chair cars arefirst-classand
''up to date." In addition to the
above, which'are, of course, abso-
lute necessities, the cars are
lighted with gas and heated by
steam from the engine. There is
plenty of ice water in the drink-
ing tanks and a supply of clean
towels in the toilet rooms. On
top of it all we have a lot of cour-
teous employes who do not take
it as an inBnlt to be asked a civil
question. As we say these are
some little things sometimes neg-
