THE ALLIABOE 0OTT0N FACTORY.
Dunn’s Mercantile Agency has
secured a partial report by counties
of the effects ot high license in Min-
nesota up to date. It shows that
362 saloons have retired from busi-
ness. This new law provides tor a
license of $ i ,000 in all cities con-
taining a population of 10,000 or
over, and $300 in cities with a
smaller population. In some cases
and notably in Ramsey county and
St. Paul, the village and county li-
censes do not expire until January 1,
1SS8. Under the old law there were
2,296 saloons in the state. Deduct-
ing possibly Soo where the old li-
cense still holds, and a falling oft of
one-fourth is shown in those portions
of the state where the new law has
gone into effect. In Minneapolis
209 licenses have been taken out—a
decrease of 127 compared with last
year.

A numbers of the members of the
Farmers’ Alliance held a meeting at
Gallagher’s hall last Monday tore-
noon, to consider the proposition
which has been under consideration
for some time to erect a cotton fac-
tory near this city. Mr. Ury, agent
for the Denison Land and Invest-
ment Company, was present, and
being invited to address the meeting
stated that the proposition hereto-
fore made by his Company was still
open to them—that his Company
would donate six and a half acres ot
land on which to erect the factory,
warehouses, etc., and that every
employer of the factory would be
given a lot on which to erect a dwel-
ling. He also believed our citizens
would aid the enterprise liberally in
the way of donations, and if given
an opportunity would also take
stock.
The meeting then went into exec-
utive session. On adjourning the
Gazetteer was informed that the
proposition of the Investment Com-
pany was accepted, and an organ-
ization perfected, for the purpose of
getting the enterprise underway,
with the least! possibly delay.
The following are the officers and
board of directors elected: W. V.
Hollingsworth, president; J. W.
Scott, vice president; J. K. P. Wil-
liams, secretary; George Knaur,
treasurer; 7. C. Bradley, Frank
Smyers, R. G. Steal, S. T. Venable,
Mart Lightfoot, T. J. Moore, L. H.
Stallcup, W. M. Mick, J. F. Todd,
J. J. Prater.
It is the intention to have the fac-
tory up and in operation before the
first ot January. A committee will
be selected at the next meeting to
act in connect on with a committee
of our citizens to solicit contributions
to aid the enterprise.
Our moneyed men all know the
importance of a cotton factory to
the city and surrounding country,
and it is to be hoped this move on
the part of the planters of this pot-
tion of the State will bs liberally
seconded by our people giving it
generous financial aid.
GREATLY EXCITED.
Not a few ot the citizens ot Denison
have recently become greatly excited over
the astounding tacts, that several of their
friends who had been pronounced by their
physicians as incurable and beyond all
hope—suffering with that dread monster
Consumption — have been completely
cured by Dr. King’s New Discovery for
Consumption, the only remedy that does
positively cure all throat anil lung dis-
eases, Coughs, Cold, Asthma and Bron-
chitis. Trial bottle free at Guitevu &

Mr. Watkins, of Dallas, who was
inconsiderate enough, to put it mild-
ly, to attempt to make votes for the
prohibition cause the day before the
election by charging upon saloon
influence the assassination of his
daughter, at Gainesville, has be-
come convinced the negro he had in
jail on the charge of committing
the murder for hire, is not guilty, and
last Monday gave his consent for the
negro’s release. Mr. Watkins’ course
in writing his sensational letter here
in Denison, and recommending its
publication and general circulation
over the State as a campaign doc
ument, was not such as to increase
public sympathy in his behalf. We
can only account for his action bv
the supposition that he was so over-
come by grief and worry as to have
lost his judgment, and yielded with-
out due reflection, to suggestions of
friends who ought to have known
better. _

IB IT BELIEVED.
An Intonating Question in View of the
Andover Controversy.
Do orthodox Christians believe
that the heathen world without re-
pentance and acceptance of Jesus
Christ, is to be irretrievably damn-
ed? They profess to believe it, says
the Unitarian organ, the Christian
Register. It is written in their
creeds, it has been preached in mis-
sionary sermons and in their theolog-
ical seminaries; but what evidence
do they give to the world that they
really believe in the doctrine they
hold? This question which Rev.
T. J. Sawyer, in an able article in
the Christian Leader, puts to the In-
dependent, which editorially presents
the “solemn conviction that every
soul dy.ng without faith in Christ is
to be consigned to hell-fire forever,
as the motive that aroused their mis-
sionary zeal." “If that is religious-
ly believed,’’ says Dr. Sawyer, “it
should be potent beyond expression.
tLet us see how it operates.’’ It is
by no means certain that the edito-
rial article which Dr. Sawyer so
earnestly answers was written by
Dr. Ward, its editor; but it repre-
sents, nevertheless, that atitude of
the Independent. The effective re-
'ply of Dr. Sawyer is seen in the
quotation which follows:
We may safely assume, I suppose,
that the:e are one thousand million
heathen or non Christian people on
the earth at this moment. Of this
vast number it is estimate-' that thir-
ty million will die and go to hell
every year and all practically with-
in a third of a century. And what,
pray, are our othodox neighbors
doing to stay this awful ruin? The.
Congregational church, I am told,
has this year appropriated $1,000-,
000 to the cause of foreign missions;
that is $1 to the salvation of every
thirty pagan souls, which will die
and .without succor be in hell before
the end of twelve months.
Now. to measure the power of
these awful facts, let us see what
sacrifices our Corgregational friends
are making in this great cause. This
church has more than 436,000 church
members, and its congregations are
probably twice, perhaps three or
tour times that number. If tbe
church members pay the whole sum,
it would average about $2.30 each ;
and, on the supposition that as many
more aid them.it would be $1.15
each per annum ; or if two others aid
each church member it would reduce
it about 75 cents.
The Universalist believes all men
will finally be saved, and gives for
foreign missions nothing. His Con-
gregationalist neighbor believes that
30,000,000 heathen souls are falling
into hell fire, and gives, at most,
$2.30, or perhaps, $1 15'or 77 cents
for their salvation. Do they show
their faith by their work?
Now, I believe if the Congrega-
tional church were persuaded that
30,000 human beings, not to say-
30, 000,000, were about to die of
starvation on a Pacific island within
twelve month?, and that $1,000,000
would save their lives, it would raise
that paltry sum in a week—ay, on
any Sabbath day in the year.
But this is not the worst aspect of
the case. I am left to wonder what
Dr. Ward can think of the God
whom he worships and seeks to love
arrd serve, who has created these
millions of immortal beings and left
their highest interests for eternity to
the contingencies ot the human will,
their own or that ot fellovvmen, and
especially when he clearly foresaw
that all would end in their everlast-
ing damnation. And this is not the
awful work of this year, or this gen-
eration, or this century alone. It
has been going on almost from the
creation of the race. And God saw
it all from the beginning. In the
name of reason and conscience and
humanity, where is the wisdom, the
goodness, in the awful tragedy of
the universe? Yet the Scriptures
teach us that God is love, anil that
he is good to all, and that his tender
mercies are over all his works.
GENERAL TUTTLE.
Record of the Great Vaporer Daring
the War.
; Grand Army Gazette and National Guardsman.
The attack made by Gen. Tuttle,
of .owa, upon President Cleveland
in connection with the proposed visit
of the latter to St. Louis at the time
of the holding of the national en-
campment in that city next Septem-
ber, gave the general a wide-spread
notoriety which must have been
gratifying to him, as he would not
have used the language he did ex-
cept for the purpose ot making him-
self conspicuous. Evidently he did
not foresee that one of the results of
this ephemeral fame would be a
searching iuquiry into his past rec-
ord, in and out of the army. It has
already been widely published that
he was a bitter Democratic partisan,
until some ten or eleven years ago,
when he suddenly threw off his al-
legiance to his party and became a
rabid Republican. Since this dis-
covery hi* army record has been the
subject of investigation, and if half
the charges made against him are
founded in fact, he deserves to be
expelled from tbe G. A. R.
It is asserted on what appears to
be reliable authority that while he
wa- in command at Natchez, Miss.,
in 1864, he was implicated in cor-
rupt transactions in cotton and other
jobbery that caused a scandal in his
department. It is also charged that
he caused the arbitrary arrest of cot-
ton planters and cotton buyers, who,
by his orders, were confined in the
Natchez jail. Some of these men
afterward testified that they had paid
thousands of dollars to a St. Louis
lawyer, well known to be intimate
with General Tuttle, to obtain their
retease, which he did. The infer-
ence is obvious. The scandal be-
came so great that General Tuttle
was relieved from his command by
order of General Slocum, and re-
turned to his home, from whence he
soon afterward sent in his resigna-
tion. On taking his departure from
Natchez it was discovered, as al-
leged, that he had taken with him on
the boat a valuable landau, worth
$2,000, which the government forces
had taken from a planter a short time
before. A gunboat was se nt in pur-
suit of the steamer, overhauling the
latter at Vicksburg, and the landau-
was recovered.
These allegations cover but a small
portion of the doughty General’s
military career, and it is not improb-
able that other revelations are in
store. Be that as it may, sufficient
as been developed to warrant Com-
mander-in-Chief Fairchild in taking
heroic measures and ordering a court
martial to investigate the truth or
falsity of the charges. If they are
true General Tuttle should not long
refnai 1 a member ot the Grand
Army of the Republic.

again this year.
“It is generally believed,” says an
exchange, “that nearly all the prohi
bition leaders throughout the United
States, as well as in Texas, are in
favor of female suffrage.”
The wife of ex-Governor R. B.
Hubbard, minister to Japan, died on
the 31st ult. She was an estimable
lady and her death is deeply de-
plored by all who knew her.
Mayor Broiles, of Fort Worth,
has appointed a number of detec-
tives to work up cases against drug-
gist? who sell the people of that city
“spiked” soda water Sundays.
The recent rains are of incalcula
ble worth to Texas. They insure a
big cotton crop, which was measur-
ably sure before, except in a narrow
strip occupying the center of the
state.
Mustanging seems to be the most
profitable feature of the stock busi-
ness in the Panhandle just now. One
party reports the capture of eighty-
six head of mustangs {here in one
week.
Col. J. P. Bridges, the brilliant
editor of tne Luting Signal, won the
Noyes safe given by the citizens of
Houston for the best write up of the
state encampment at that city last
month.
Pilot Point has the lionor of re
ceiving the first bale of cotton in
Noitli Texas. It was brought in on
the 4th by two negroes and sold for
10 cents a pound and got a premium
ot $20.
The Eleventh Texas Cavalry are
the possessors ot the flag which was
last fired on during the late war.
The Globe-Democrat of St. Louis,
offered $1,000 for the relic, which
was refused.
The Hon. Olin Wellborn, ex-
congressman of the 6th district of
Texas, who is now living at San
Diego, Calitornia, has been em-
ployed as attorney for the Atchison
& Topeka railway at a handsome
salary.
Another and the second installa-
tion of the order of the Isle of
Jersey will take place at the Dallas
fair this fall. This honor and dis-
tinction will be conferred on the
greatest butter producer and the best
looking cow.
A mammoth cave is reported to
have been discovered in the north-
west portion of Greer county, which
promises to rival tbe Mammoth Cave
of Kentucky. It has two entrances
ten miles apart, and appears to hive
been the rendezvous of cowboys.
Mrs. Elizabeth Farrell, or any
one knowing her whereabouts will
please communicate same to her
sister, Mrs. Martha Davis, Ballin-
ger, Texas. Will the generous
courtesy of the Texas press please
copy this as a favor to an anxious
sister?
A recent visitor to Erath county
does not give a very flattering ac-
count ot crop prospects. He thinks
that Erath will make a half crop,
while Bosque and Palo Pinto coun-
ties will make almost total failures.
The crops in Johnson and Tarrant
are tolerably fair.
A couple of highwaymen under-
ook to hold up and rob a Dallas
merchant and his clerk as they were
going home Saturday night. The
robbers threw sixshooters down upon
their victims and ordered them to
throw up their hands. The clerk
pulled bis pistol and shot one of the
robbers who fell and was captured,
and tbe other escaped.
