Prof. J. E. Dow was cowhided
in Houston Sunday afternoon by a
young man named F. F. Chew, be-
cause the Professor, at a recent ex-
amination of pupils for promotion
to a higher grade, had not given his
sister a high grade certificate.
Mr. James D. Fish is living in
luxurious quarters at the Fifth Av-
enue Hotel in New York, where he
has been brought from the peniten-
tiaiy at Auburn to testify in addi-
tional suits growing out of the fail-
ure of Grant A Ward.
Archdeacon Farrar, who spent a
few weeks in this country last fall,
told an English audience the other
day that during his travels in the
United States he saw less drunken-
ness than in a single walk in Lon-
don, but prohibition ranters will
never hear of it.
We see that both Judge Harkins
and Dr. Murray, the Chickasaw del-
egates to Washington, are putting in
good, solid, telling work for the lo-
cation of a Federal court at Denison
and Paris. All reports to the con-
trary are utterly without foundation.
We speak by the card.
The Dallas Times says it is under-
stood that Mr. Ptouts, late of the
Dallas Herald, and Mr. George
Loving, of Fort Worth, are organ-
ising a stock company for the estab-
lishment of a new morning paper in
Dallas. The contract for office ma-
terial, it is understood, is already
made.
Notwithstanding printing has
made such rapid progress in the
United States, the printing press was
put to work in Mexico a hundred
years before one was established in
the colonies. The first printing press
was taken from Spain to Mexico in
'535 or '540-
In no country are books so cheap
or so common as in China. A book
that would cost, in this country, 75
cents or $1, would be sold in China
for 8 or 10 cents of our money. As
every child must learn to read, books
have a large circulation. They are
printed from engraved blocks and
only on one side of the leaf.
In double leads the New York
Times to-day says: “The Pan Elec-
tric scandal, involving certain public
men at Washington, is a small mat-
ter in comparison with the Bell tele-
phone scandal, involving certain
newspaper editors in the city of
New York.’* The Times also says:
“The newspaper outcry about the
Pan Electric scandal is promoted
and for the most part paid for by the
Bell Telephone Company.
The Select Committee on Wo-
man Suffrage has reported favorably
Mr, Blaine's joint resolution pro-
viding for a constitutional amedment
extending the right of suffrage to
women. Mr. Cockrell, of the com-
mittee, stated that the report was not
unanimous, and that the minority
reserved the right to present a writ-
ten report objecting to the measure.
It was then placed on the calendar.
Mr. Moody, the Evangelist, has
mapped out a new field of labor; it
is to bring the working men of Chi-
cago under religious influences, but
he intends first to beg a quarter of a
million dollars to use as an opera-
ting capital. With this he proposes
to erect cheap meeting bowses that
they won’t be ashamed to ester.
The numerous religious edifices,
supported by the wealthy Christians,
are supposed to be too “tony” for a
laboring man
The ladies of Hutchinson, Kas.,
have organized an Equal Suffrage
Club, in which progressive euchre,
dancing, music, essays and indeed,
“everything nice” is to figure. As
the ladies of the W. C. T. U. or-
ganization refused to --mix,” the
Equal Suffragists voted to keep that
crowd out. The club deserves en-
couragement.
When a Texas cow boy brands a
steer, he is not aware that it is one of
the oldest customs of which we have
any record. Virgil in the 3d book
of the Georgica tells of the branding
of cattle of different kinds, and the
herdsmen practiced it long before
that. As late as the sixteeth cen-
tury vagrants were branded with a
hot iron on the breast.
The Paris merchants say they
won’t deal any more in.Stetson hats.
The merchants of Tyler are made of
different stuff, and insist upon doing
as they please about it. The most
effect way to stop Stetson’s factory
would be to pummel every man
found wearing one of his hats. It is
really the man that wears the article
that interferes with the success of
the boycott. Annihiliate him and
Stetson is “busted.”
If there is a surplus of money in
the United States treasury, which it
is necessary to get rid of, it would
appear to a man ot ordinary rea-
soning powers that it could be better
appropriated than by giving Mrs.
Grant a pension of $5,000 a year.
She is already wealthy, and the pa-
pers state she has just received, as
the first installment from the sale
of the General’s memoirs, the snug
sum of $50,000.
That formidable body of Anarch-
ists at Chicago, whose threats to
subvert the government have receiv-
ed so much attention from the press,
seems to be reduced to about twenty
in number, and they have so little
courage that they fled precipitately
from a dozen policemen, Saturday,
from the vicinity of a hall where a
ball was in progress, which the An-
archists threatened to break up.
Sterrett, of the Dallas Times,
says he has lost confidence in the
grass commissioners. “In the past,”
he says, “they were want to speak
of fhe bullionaire as Mr. So-and-so.
Their visits out there have entirely
changed this. They now speak of
the poorest of the cow-punchers as
Colonel So-and-so and Major So-
and-so. The Times feels that the
bullionaire has in some way got in
his work on the grass commission-
ers. It judges so from tne respect
which they, the commissioners, seem
to have tor the ‘Jims’ and ‘Johns,’
and ‘Bills* of the west.”
A peep into the political kaleido-
scope ot Texas discloses a wonder-
ful display of glowing colors and
delicate tints. In turning the won-
derful little instrument around the
investigator can’t fail to note the
blinding brilliancy of the Terrell
colors when the senatorial panel
comes to view. The press of the
-tat-: is decidedly in favor of the
Judge at present; and were the ballot
to be taken in the legislature to-dav,
he would most likely succeed Sena-
tor Maxey. But with even the short-
est lapse of time men change as in-
dividuals and public opinion
changes ; yet with all the political
upheavals in Texas and memorable
changes—the going out and coining
in of parties—the disasters of wars,
the oppression of financial crisis, the
tyranny of military laws, the suspen-
sion of the right of habeas corpus,
the brutality of police rule, and
negro bureaus, Judge Terrell has un-
derwent but little change—hence we
may safely surmi-e that his boom
will grow brighter as it is warmed by
the spring, summer and autumn
suns.
Few readers of the great daily
papers of to-day are aware that the
daily paper is really no modern in-
vention. There was a daily paper
in Rome over two thousand years
ago, called Acta Diurna, which is
frequently mentioned by contempo-
rary writers. It was in manuscript,
and as it had subscribers in distant
cities, a large corps of scribes was,
no doubt, employed to make the
necessary copies. Cicero mentions
it, and in a way that shows it was a
real newspaper. He says he ex-
pected to find in it the city news,
and the gossip about marriages and
divorces. It was the official medium
for transmitting intelligence and re-
corded the proceedings of the sen-
Gen. B. F. Butler was interview-
ed in Boston, and expressed the
opinioa that the boycott is a poor
weapon, the ballott being a much
better.
Senator Morgan’s Mormon Beoolution.
Senator Morgan’s resolution ob-
jecting to United States officers be-
ing trustees of the Mormon Church,
as incorporated in the Utah bill, was
called up in the Senate yesterday.
Mr. Ingalls moved that it be referred
to the committee on Judiciary. Mr.
Morgan said it was a subject of very
great importance. Every church in
every Territory and in the District of
Columbia was affected by it, as, if
it passed, they were liable by act of
Congress to have United States offi-
cers appointed to act as their trustees
in their spiritual affairs. If the
trustees controlled the temporal af-
fairs of the church, then the United
States officers would exercise an in-
fluence in spiritual matters. Mr.
Morgan contended that this would
be unconstitutional. He said he
would repeat what he had said yes-
terday. Church and State had been
divorced before the adoption of the
Constitution ; this divorce was rati-
fied at the adoption of the Constitu-
tion, and now it was proposed to
celebrate their nupitals.—Washing-
ton Critic
Mr. Morgan takes the correct
view of this bill. It is decidedly
unconstitutional in several of its pro-
visions, and if passed would be a
precedent for governmental interfer-
ence in religious matters the people
are not prepared to tolerafe.
The casket containing the remains
of President Garfield was carefully
removed from the vault in Lake
View cemetery, Cleveland, last Sun-
day, and deposited in a beautiful
and costly sarcophagus. The only
persons present were James B.
Garfield, Lietenant Edwards, the
soldiers stationed at the tomb and
four press representatives. The sar-
cophagus is of solid bronze, and the
most costly article of the kind in the
country; weight 450 pounds; cost
$2,000. The casket was not
opened. ___________
Judge Hayes, of the Davenport
district, Iowa, has just made a decis-
ion under the prohibitory law of
that state, that the man who buys a
drink is as much a violator of the
law as the one who sells it. Indeed,
more so, as he tempts the seller to
violate the law. This- decision has
made the prohibitionists nervous.
They say this will hamper them in
their detective system. A man will
not tell if he sees a fellow take a
drink, and there is no way to compel
him, if by so doing he criminates
himself. It is rather rough on these
meddlers, but the decision appears
to be a just one, nevertheless.
Announcement has just been
made to friends of the bride expec-
tant of the engagement of Thomas
A Edison, the electrician and inven-
tor, to Mina, the second daughter of
Louis Miller, of Akron, Ohio. They
first met at Menlo Park a year ago.
Miss Miller is just eighteen years
Prof. Edison’s junior, being twenty,
and is a handsome brunette, highly
accomplished in music and letters.
Her father is the chief stockholder
of Aultman, Miller A Co., the great
mower and reaper firm, of Akron,
O., who is probably worth $1,500,-
000. The wedding will take place
at the bride’s home on the 24th
inst.
An Old-Time Evangelist
Many humorous stories are told
of Lorenzo Dow. He preached
once from the text of St. Paul: “I
can do all things.” “‘No, Paul,” he
said, “you are wrong for once.”
“I’ll bet you $5 you can’t,” and he
took a $5 bill from his pocket and
laid it on the desk. IJe continued
to read, “through ovir Lord Jesus
Christ.” “O, Paul,” said he, "that
is an entirely different tiling, the bet
is off.”
MUCH TRUTH UT IT.
Rev. Talmage, in a late sermon
on summer temptations, makes a
slash at the temptation to form hasty
alliances at fashionable watering
places. There i» sound wisdom in
his words and especially enthusiastic
is he on the “young man” of the
period those “ohs” that inflict every
incorporated town on the continent:
“The watering places are respon-
sible for more of the domestic infe-
licities of this country than all other
things combined. Society is so ar-
tificial there that no sure judgment
ot character can be formed. Those
who form companionships amid such
circumstances go into a lottery where
there are twenty blanks to one prize.
In the severe tug of life you want
more than glitter and splash. Life
is not a ball room where the music
decides the step, and bow and place
and graceful swing of long trail can
make up for strong common sense.
You might as well go among the
gaily painted yachts of a summer
regatta to find war vessels as to go
among the light spray of the sum-
mer watering places to find charac-
ter that can stand the test of the
great struggle of human life. Oh,
in the battle of life you want a
stronger weapon than a lace face or
a croquet mallet. The load of life
is so heavy that in order to draw it
you want a team stronger than one
made up of a masculine grasshop-
per and a feminine butterfly. If
there is any man in the community
who excites my contempt, and who
ought to excite the contempt of ev-
ery man and woman, it is the soft-
handed, soft-headed fop, who, per-
fumed until the air is actually sick,
spends the summer in killing atti-
tudes, and waving sentimental
adieus, and talking infinitesimal
nothings, and finding his heaven in
the set of a lavender kid glove,
boots as tight as an inquisition, two
hours of consummate skill exhibited
in the tie ot a flaming cravat, his
conversation made up of “ahs” and
“ons” and “he-hees.” It would
take 500 of them stewed down to
make a teaspoonful of calf’s-foot
jelly. There is only on.e counter-
part to such a young man as that,
and that is the frothy young woman
at the watering place; her conversa-
tion made up of the French moon-
shine ; what she has on her head on-
ly equaled by what she has on her
back; useless ever since she was
born, and to be useless until she is
dead ; and what they will do with
htr in the next world I do not know,
except to set her upon the banks of
the river of life for eternity to look
sweet. _
The Parsons Sun, a republican
paper, says:
There were forty-eight congres-
sional committees for which Speaker
Carlisle supplied chairmen, and
thirty of his chairman came from the
southern states, which number only
sixteen in a total of forty-five states
and territories representated in con-
gress, and one hundred and twelve
in a total of three hundred and
twenty-five members. These figures
are eloquent. Legislation never was
more completely in the control of the
south, even in the days before the
war.
A OARE FREE MOTHERHOOD.
From the Chicago Inter-Ocean.
THE K1GHT TO RE CARED FOE.
Mr». Helen E. Starrett make*
the following eloquent plea in behalf
of woman’s r ght to be cared tor, to
be generously supported, and kindly
protected » hen she becomes a wife
and mother: “The woman who,
when the occasion requires it, can
take care of herself, is a truly ad-
mirable and delightful person to
meet. She encourages our hearts to
feel that our daughters may be fitted
by proper education to meet the
emergencies of life cheerfully, brave-
ly and successfully. But it is prob-
able we all feel, when planning for
the future of our daughters, that if
they are called upon to fulfill the
whole of woman’s destiny, if they
become wives and mothers, their
normal condition, and that which
would be the most favorable to their
own happiness, and complete and
harmonious development, would be
that of being cared for. In this con-
dition. as in all right conditions, they
are entitled to all the rights and
privileges, and have all the claims
upon the respect and kindness of
men that could possibly be claimed
or awarded to the most enterprising
and successful workers among wo-
men in any department of the
world’s work.
Colonel Robert Ingersoll says that
women have all the rights that men
have and one more, the right ot be-
ing protected. In this statement he
shows his
DISCRIMINATION AND GENUINE PO-
LITENESS,
in that he did not use the common
phraseology and say the right of be-
ing supported. A man has no more
business to say he supports his wife
than he has to say he supports his
partner or his clerks. All good
wives render a full quid pro quo in
the partnership of the home, even
though thev do nothing but make it
pleasant and meet their husbands on
their return from business with a
smile. A young woman, by virture
of a fine education and natural abili-
ties, is able, as a teacher to earn a
thousand dollars a year. A young
fellow asks her to relinquish thi* and
join him in founding a home, her
part in it being, perhaps, mainly to
stay in the house and overlook the
housekeeping. She may consent to
do so, with most happy results both
to herself and to him ; but one essen-
tsal element in her happiness must
be that by so doing she does not
place herself in a position that shall
create a painful sense of dependence.
There is no high-spirited woman
who can endure without pain such
an attitude, yet there is
NO RIGHTLY CONSTITUTED WOMAN
who does not under the right condi-
tions enjoy having all her temporal
wants supplied, and of being cared
for and protected.
An earnest and thoughtful writer
upon social questions of the deepest
importance says what this country
most needs is a leisurely, happy and
care-free motherhood. The period
when a mother has her little ones
around her knees ought to be the
happiest of her life. But when ma-
ternal cares press, a stronger hand
than hers should ward off all other
cares and trials that would oppress
her or interfere with her care for her
children. This is the period when
woman's most sacred right is that of
being cared for and protected. Alas!
that to so many mothers the period
of maternity is one of being over-
burdened physically and mentally,
and of unrest and sorrow of spirit.
And this condition is one from
which, in a majority of cases, she
cannot rescue herself. She may
need recreation, change, help in her
labors, and many other things in
order to have a healthful condition
of mind and body ; but she lacks the
strength and energy to provide her-
self with them. Here is the oppor-
tunity for the good husband. Here
is his chance to bind his loving wife
to him
WITH “HOOKS OF STEEL;”
here is his time to show that he ap-
preciates what is due the woman in
the most important relations in life.
But in order to do this he must ren-
der this homage, not as one who
gives to a dependent, but rather as
one who brings glad tribute to a sa-
cred altar.
Woman’s greatest and first claim
to all rights and privileges is her
claim as a mother. We hear a great
deal nowadays about the rights of
the laboring classes, the wealth pro-
duced by the laboring classes, the
claiips of the working classes. But
does not the greatest wealth of the
State consist of well-trained, good,
law-abiding citizens? These are
given to the State by the mother.
Yet where is the political economist*
and where is the political party that
recognizes the claims of or seeks to
reward those, who by thousands ot
watchful days and nights give l|his
world its heroes, its poets, its states-
men ? For this royal and loving ser-
vice woman has richly earned all the
protection that law can afford by
giving to her the power, if necessary,
to protecs herself by making plain
and straight the paths for her feet
when she walks along, but above all
by making happy and elevating the
conditions of wifehood and mother-
hood.
Throckmorton ana the Governorship.
The following from the McKin-
ney Democrat, published at Hon.
Throckmorton’s home, may be con-
sidered eminently reliable. Mr.
Throckmorton is a gentleman in
every' respect qualified to serve as
Governor of Texas, and he has
triends enough to elect him if he
should desire the position ; but it is
not likely he desires it. His cam
stituents are perfectly satisfied with
his course pursued in congress, and,
believing his place could not be
more ably filled, we don’t think it
would be a politic move to swap him
off and send him to Austin as gov-
ernor :
Inquiries are repeatedly made as
to whether or not Hon. J. W.
Throckmorton has any aspirations to
thp governorship. These inquiries
have no doubt grown ou t of the fact
that frequent items to the effect that
he had some such designs, have ap-
peared in the press of the state. We
have not made inquiry of Governor
Throckmorton to know bow this is,
but feel free to say tor him that he
has not the remotest desire to be-
come a candidate for governor. He
is well satisfied with his seat in con-
gress, and does not care to exchange
it for the Executive Mansion at
Austin. The gentlemen desiring to
be the nevt governor of Texas, and
their friends can rest perfectly easy
about all such tals. It is not autho-
rized either directly or indirectly by
the Governor. He will be a can-
didate for re-election to Congress.
Nothing more.
THE OKLAHOMA. BOOM.
What Commissioner BpeRs Says of the
Denisoa Branch of tha Bom.
Sometime ago an Oklahoma boom
office was opened in this city and
circulars (printed at Murray’s Steam
Printing House) were sent out in-
viting membership in a colony at a
lee of $2 each—promising to secure
a homestead for the members as soon
as the land office should be estab-
lished. A couple of weeks ago
Representative McRae, of Arkansas,
referred the matter to Commissioner
Speks, who says, in reference to the
scheme:
I have a very positive opinion that
no benefit can be derived from a
member hip in the alleged colony.
If the lands were opened for settle-
ment the agents of the colony could
not make a settlement location. Set-
tlement entries can only be made by
settlers in person, but as the lands
are not open to settlement, the for-
mation of an actual organization for
the purpose ot going into the Oklaho-
ma country would be engaging in
an unlawful combination. As a
prospective scheme, the only tangi-
ble result tb*t can be perceived is the
obtainment by its alleged promoters
of $2 from each person who may be
imposed upon by said circular. The
whole scheme is undoubtedly an
imposition, and a dangerous one,
because the small sum required for
membership may induce a large
number of unsuspicious persons to
become its dupes.
The following is the circular, is-
sued by the organization, above re-
ferred to:
Secure your homesteads of 160
acres of land in Oklahoma, the
promised land, by joining the Texas
Oklahoma Homestead Colony;
headquarters at Denison, Texas,
organized for the benefit of all men
and women that want homesteads in
the richest and healthiest public lands
in America.
This beautiful tract of land is sit-
uated in the northwest corner of the
Indian Territory and is estimated at
33,000,000 acres, and has been mo-
nopolized by cattle men since its
purchase by the Government. The
struggle by Payne’s Oklahoma Col-
ony to settle on this land is a matter
op history, and the present adminis-
tration’s proclamation ordering the
cattlemen off the public domain,
stands out plain and distinct for all
men to understand. It is a bright
Beacon of Hope to the laboring
class, as the cattle men and land
syndicates are the only element to-
day on American soil that oppose
the poor farmer taking advantage of
the homestead law.
The Texas Oklahoma Home-
stead Colony was organized to sat-
isfy a public demand. Hundreds
of thousands of poor men are anx-
iously waiting for the Government
to open Oklahoma for settlement,
expecting then to sell out and go
there ; and it requires but little fore-
sight to see that thousands will sell
out at a sacrifice and swing in with
the rush, only to find when they get
there that the land is all taken up.
Fully aware of these facts, the
Homesteaders of Texas organized
for self-defense, and elected a Pres-
ident and Secretary, /to establish
headquarters at Denison, Texas, to
keep up correspondent with the
colonists and our agent at Washing-
ton, and as soon as the land office is
established, to go there forthwith
and locate a claim for every man
and woman belonging to the colony.
Thus enabling each member to sell
without loss, as he knows be has a
home of his own to go to, and six
month’s time to get there in, and till
that time comes he can stay where
he is and lose neither time or money ;
and he is just as sure of a home-
stead, and a great deal surer of pub-
lic esteem than he would be were
he to make a saci ifice of his proper-
ty and time now, only to loiter
around and be a standing menace to
to the authorities.
The common sense principles of
our Colony has commanded the re-
spect of people in other states, and
applications for membership came
in from the older states, and in on#
short month our Colony became a
national one in character. And as
our cause is a national one, while
we retain our original name, we
throw open the doors and invite all
men and women who want homes
to join us, for the stronger the or-
ganization the sooner our claims will
be satisfied. In union is strength is
as true now as it was a hundred
years ago.
The fee for membership is only
two dollars, ($2.00) tfnd no month-
ly dues. The Colony funfi is devo-
ted to printing, stationery, office
rent and Colony expenses only. And
all correspondents to furnish return
stamps, thus taking that expense off
the Colony.
On receipt ot fees each applicant’s
name is registered on the Colony
roll and a certificate of membership,
stating that he (or she) have paid
their fees and that thev are entitled
to all the benefits and protection of
the Colony, and to an equal voice in
its government, will be returned,
properly signed by the President
and Secretary of the Association.
And we have organized to stay. until
eyery member has ^ homestead jo
Oklahoma.
Any man or woman wanting to
join us can do so by sending their
membership fee ($2.00) by postal
not, money note, or registered letter
to the Texas, Oklahoma Homestead
Colony, Denison, Texas. P. O.
