Wl will say to the Sedulin Demo-
crat that n is our opinion that the
circular published in its issue of the
tho 22d, purporting lo be the “stru t
ly confidential circular of tho bunk-
ing association, ot New York,” is a
base fabrication and owes its pater-
nity to the fertile imagination of an
unscrupulous hard-money democrat.
Tho Democrat would strengthen its
cause very materially by giving tho
country indisputable ovidenco that
this circular is not a forgery. Wo
are freo lo confess lhal if this circu-
lar is provon to bo goiuiine the po-
litical course of many fair-minded
men and papers would bo radically
altered ut once. Therefore we most
respectfully ask the Democrat for
tho proof.
There is scarcely a possibility of
the peaco of Europe being in any
degree permanent. The I’orlo, by
its covert encouragement of tho in-
struction in Bosnia and Herzegovi-
na lias stultified tho Berlin treaty,
which lias incensed all nations inter-
ested in that article—particularly
Austria and Germany. The occupa-
tion of lb esc provinces by Austrian
troops should have been effected
peacably, and would have been, had
the Port exerted ns influence to that
end instead ot encouraging msurroc-1 P00P'e
lion. England is an attentive and
interested spectator and is prepared
at the first opportunity to establish
her powor in Asia. While it is no!
probable that the condition of affairs
in Bosnia and Herzegovina will lead
to an immediate declaration of war
between the Sultan and Francis Jo-
seph, it sliows that tho Berlin treaty
is not willingly accepted and Us
terms will bo complied with only
under protest. This does not insure
peace.
There is more crookedness com-
ing to light regarding the Mastin
lank failure and Iho State deposits.
The Sedalia Eagle of the 22d says:
“The latest report is to tho effect
that the Mastin bank actually had
over $634,000 of the money of the
Slate in its possession when it fail-
ed. It is stated, on what seems to
be good a nth only, that when the
ran on the hank commenced tho
Mastins telegraphed to Jim Burns,
at St. Joe, for assistance; and that
he (Burns) chartered a locomotive
and ran over to Kansas City in tho
night time, with 8128,000 of the
Slate’s money which was all paid
out to tho depositors before the
bank closed its doors. Full parftc
ulars noxt week.” From this it
would appear that $128,000 of tho
State’s money went up in addition
to what Treasurer Gates bad on do-
posit with the Mastin bnnk. The
thing stinks of r ottenness, and the
Mastins should he sifted to the hot-
tom, and no guilfy man should es
caps. Mr. Gates should make an
Overstatement.
Ws are in receipt of a marked
copy of the Wilmington Every Even-
ing, a very enterprising and readable
newapapar, by the way, in which
particular prominence is givon to an
editorial wilh this caption: “The
Delaware idea vs. the Ohio idea as
a road to democratic success.” The
Delaware idea here referred to is
the platform lately enunciated by
the Delaware demooracy, which is
“bard money” in its financial bear-
inga.
Herein Delaware is in direct op-
position with the people of Texas
and other southern nnd western
States,.but the editorial in question
effects to point out a method of har-
monizing this marked antagonism,
not by conceding one tittle ot its
“hard raonyism” but by counting on
tho allegiance of the solid South to
any scheme or policy which the dem-
ocratic leaders of the North may
chose to commit tho party to.
“If there is any depondenco to be
placed on tho boasts of tho southern
democrats, tho solid south will rote
for tho democratic candidate, any
how."
This passage, and others of a sim-
ilar tendoncy which interlards this
circular editorial, show how little tho
solid south is undoi-stood. While
the democracy of the south is un-
questionably solid, it cannot be drag-
ged hither and thither, to and fro,
by its northern loaders forever.
Democracy is beginning to mean
something more than an insignia ot
serfdom to an ompty name. Demo
cracy, in Texas, means simply and
only what tho platform of principles
adopted at tho late Austin conven-
tion embodies. The citizens of Tex-
as arc us six to one in favor of the
Ohio greenback idea. The demo-
cracy of the State at this time con-
sists of a large majority of green-
buck men who remain with tho dem-
crutic party only because that party
has taken a bold, manly and une-
quivocal stand tor the “greenback
idea.” It is the shoerest nonsense
to sttpposo that any considerable
number of intelligent, unbiased
men would support any party
whose financial principles wore man-
ifestly detrimental lo tho welfare of
thoir particular section. It is noth-
ing less than an insult to the com-
mon sense ol the people ol the solid
south to entertain tho idea Uiat
they will subordinate their enler-
osts to support a democratic candi-
date on a hard money basis. Tho
time was when a solid south could
ho counted upon to support any
measures which would rid them of
the yoke of carpet-baggism, hut no
such incentive to a blind partizan-
serfdom exists at present.
Those who count upon there being
any magic in the word“demourucy,”
when it moans nothing more than
tacit obediomo to the bond-holding
ring, count without thoir host. The
Democracy of Texas could not
rally one-titlli tho voting strength
of the Sluto on a bald money
platform. Had the convention at
Austin declared for the “Delaware
Jdea,” tho greenback ticket would
have met witli such a triumphant
support us to have been a stein
repot t to such as believe that our
will quietly sit by and
allow their thinking to bo done
for them in Wall street, New York.
What is true of Texas is true of
tho solid south. We do not ex-
change with tins Delaware beacon
of democracy, and the question with
us is, who sent it, who drew the red
chalk mark uruund tho editorial
and who “put up.” There is some-
thing, which in the pai lance of the
hour, needs disinfecting. The clo-
ven hoof of the bond-holding power
is apparent in every phrase, every
sentiment, every deduction. Tho
Wall street ring, not content with
the ownership of tho republican
party, is making overtures to bu-
como proprietor of the democratic
party as well. An attempt was
made during the Tilden campaign
to buy tho southern press, for no
other purpose than to make the
solid south subservient to the
money ring, nnd to tlio shame of
journalism, bo it said, tho attempt
mot with too frequont success. With
the onward march of time and the
apparent elevation of the standard
of journalism, wo have hopes that
no editor in the south would be
party lo so open an act of selling
out tty) host interests of the people
to the corrupt ring that ts seeking
with a “barrel of money” to buy-
up tho democratic party as it has
already purchased the republican
organization.

We take it for granted that the

it does not roach this office. So
young and so beautiful to dio.
The Journal says: Real estate is
rapidly onchancing now. Since the
law suit has been decided in favor
of Henrietta, property is worth 100
per cent premium.
The Hebrew benevolent society of
Dallas has forwurdod $000 to thoir
distressed pcoplo in tho fover-infect-
cd districts. No other town in the
State Inis done so nobly
A barlow knife will bo given to
tho handsomest editor who attends

“tote” of that knife. Thus talkoth
the local of the McKinney Advocato.
Tho citizens of Wheeler county

tion of that county, ft numbers
155 ttnd has tho required amount of

The Dallas Commercial suys : It
must bo admitted that there is a con-

Finer, was bitten by a maJ-dog last

Thusly the Marlin Bull bawloth :
Forcpaugh’s great circus will be in

of visiting such a town as Marlin.
The tax on citcuses is an outrage on

Tho following from tho Gaines-
ville Hesperian should dose the

and shown to the world that you
was ilie only ass, in Iho Ft. Worth
convention, by your kickingat the
nomination.
Ono by one ttio roses fall, etc.
Tho McKinney Advocate says:

traveling through this Slate as an
evangelist, and has done much good
work, has been exposed at Bryan,
whore he was holding a meeting,and
shown to bo traveling tinder an as-
sumed name, his proper name being
Holmes. It appears that ho desert-
ed Lis wife in Canada, and appropri-
ated church money to bis own use.
A negro has been sentoncod to
tnirty days in tho Sherman jail for

cents.—Bonham News. At forty
cents a day, the usual amount
Sheriffs are allowed for feeding
each prisoner, he will cost the tax
payers of Grayson county 812 be-
sides the expon.se of guards. Ho
could bo punished by tho whipping
post law at a cost of four bits.—
Marlin Ball. What an unanswerable
argument in favor of the whipping
post. Fifty lashes could havo been
laid on at an expense of fifty conls
and the negro would have been re
lot med.
