The municipal authorities of San An-

Thomas C Platt who bought noto-
riety at the expense of a seat in the Sen-
ate when he resigned with Conkling is
coming to the front again in New York
politics this time in a much more unen-
viable light than when he last at-
tracted public attention As quarantine
commissioner of the state it seems
that he has managed the affairs of his
office In the most approved stalwart style
using it chiefly to further political and
personal ends Charges of malfeasance
in office have been preferred against the
commissioner and his lieutenant Health
Officer Smith which will probably lead to
an official investigation Platt has de-
veloped into a Republican boss and
because of a late disagreement with
Conkling is a warm champion of the man

Fort Worth has an enterprise under discus-
sion which we hope to see take shape at an
early date that of scouring wool The present
method of handling this leading Texas staple is
contrary to fixed laws In 100 pounds of wool
as taiien from the Hocks there is an avorage of
sixty pounds of dirt trash and oil This dirt
trash oil etc is waehed out in the scouring
process and is lost Now why should the Texas
flockmen pay freight on this surplus to Massa-
chusetts and have It waBhod there The Forts
idea Is a good ono and we hope THE Gazette
will keep at work at It until the works are se-
cured Wills Point Knral News
If Fort Worth will prepare itself to han-
dle the wool by the erection of scouring
works here this city can be made a great
wool market and in handling the produc-
tions of a widely extended territory it
would be strange indeed if we did not
sell to the wool growers as well as buy
from them This is a matter well deserv-
ing the attention of our people

These are indeed royal bills It must
have made the Queen fairly beside herself
to enjoy such unbounded hospitalitybeing
something novel in her experience It
was a great feat when the American mis-
sionaries taught the Sandwich Islanders

tire and to read and write to cipher and
to sew but it remained for the Hub to

A northern paper seeks to make fair
weather w4h organized labor in the fol-
lowing matmer
They do things differently down southwherc
by the way the good old Democratic party
which so many of the labor reformers up this
way are ready to swear by Is In full power and
prosperity They Insist that negro workmen
shall accent just such wages as their employers
feel Inclined to pay and anv attempt at organi-
zation for better pay or mutual protection is
rewarded by assassination
This is the diet on which Republicanism
has thrived and fattened so long that the
Radical stomach can digest no
other While northern men and
women who are living in the south know
how independent the colored laborer is
when one tries to have a cord of wood-
cut or a lawn mowed the Democratic
party should rather rejolcethat the noble
old Rips are resolved on fighting the next
battle with the bloody shirt No better
fortune could befall Democracy than the
insane efforts of crazy politicians to turn

It is entirely unnecessary for the anti-
poverty party to put out a candidate for

To look at It in that light is not at all com-
plimentary to the editors but Fort Worth de-
serves all the good things said about it
The paper must be aware that
the editors of Texas meet annually for
purposes of their own and that at each
meeting place of the annual convention
for years past the people have been
pleased to show the editors such cour-
tesies as indicated the public apprecia-
tion of men who were doing
so much to build up the state If
there was anything unusual in the
hospitalities extended by Fort Worth it

must be that this city has an unusual ap-
preciation of editorial assistance in pro
moting the public good Fort Wortn j
honored the editors for what they had
done In too many Instances without com-
mensurate reward from those for whom
the editors labored If Fort Worth has
taught Texas towns and Texas people
how to appreciate the men who labor
unceasingly for the public welfare Fort
Worth is more than repaid for what to
this city was a pleasure as well as a duty
A PAPER MILL
Fort Worth wants a paper mill the press
throughout the state wants a paper mill some
manufacturers In New England want to build a
mill and tie members who attended the Fort
Worth meeting signified a wlUlnenees to take
512000 stock Now what Is the reason It cant
be built What will Fort Worth do to secure
such an enterprise It Is Indeed wonh looking
after Itasca Alliance Mall
The AllianceMail is right Such an
enterprise is worth looking after both by
the newspaper interests of the state and
the people of Fort Worth The latter
may be relied on to do their share
toward nutting it on foot They are
quick to appreciate the benefits of every
new enterprise and there are many in-
volved In tnis which especially commend
it to the business men of a live city like
Fort Worth Chief among these is the
close relations which it would bring
about between the city and the
press of the state The town which
commands the trade of a people secures
their friendship Drawing their paper
supplies from Fort Worth the newspaper-
men of the state would become better ac
quainted with it with its business men
its resources etc and would naturally
feel for it a warmer interest than other
places with which they had no business
dealings This of course is a reason
which concerns Fort Worth alone Many
might be given for the location of
the proposed paper mill in this city Its
superior railroad facilities are now re-
luctantly conceded by all rivals
it is the only point with
the necessary distributing facilities which
has that indispensable factor in such an
establishment good pure soft water in
abundance It must be apparent to every
newspaper man in the state who has
given a moments thought to the matter
that Fort Worth is by heavy odds the best
point in Texas for such an enterprise
Let the press of the state agitate the
matter and give it practical shape Fort
Worth will do its part when the time
for action comes
ASSISTED IMMIGRATION
In a recent letter to Mr West the
British Minister at Washington replying
to an inquiry as to whether this govern-
ment would permit the importation of
families from Ireland at the expense of
the British government Secretary Bayard
discusses briefly a question which prom-
ises to become if it is not already the
most vital issue in the social and political
affairs of this couutry Says Mr Bayard
in this letter The economic and polit-
ical conditions of the United States have
always led the government to favor im-
migration and all persons seeking a new
Held of effort and coming hither
with a view to the improvement
of their condition by the free exercise of
their faculties have been cordially re-
ceived The same conditions have caused
other kinds of immigration to be re-
garded as undesirable and led to the
adoption by Congress of laws to prevent
the coming of paupers criminals and cer-
tain other enumerated classes Such im-
migration the economic and political con-
ditions of the United States render pecu-
liarly unacceptable It is thought that
ths will be a prominent question before
the next Congress and that public senti-
ment will force it to the adoption of
more stringent measures to keep out un-
desirable immigration than have ever
been seriously considered in Congress
before The conservative element of the
country is waking up to the fact tnat
American institutions are being seriously
endangered by the laxity of the require-
ments for American citizenship Com-
munistic ugitation and action in various
parts of the country have resulted in con-
vincing thinking men that something
more is required than the atmosphere of
a free country to develop the true spirit
of freedom The social complications
which present the most difficult
problem to be dealt with by the
statesmen of today are made doubly
complex by the ignorance and the pre-
judices of a large proportion of those in
volved in the settlement of these ques-
tions dwarfed as they were in mental
and physical development bv the training
of foreign despotisms It is a singular
and a significant fact that the victims of
foreign oppression who fly to these shores
for refuge seem to trans fer to the gov-
ernment which offers them exemption
from oppression and a hearty welcome
the hatred which they fell for their
native rulers Too often this finds vent
in open hostility to the most venerated
institutions of this country in-
stitutions which have given per-
manence and strength to our re-
publican form of government and with-
out which there would now be no asylum
hero for the haters of despotism of every
sortThe
The events of the last two or three
years have given warning that the tirne
has come for the settlement of the immi-
gration problem With a steady in-
flux from every European cation of
the classes mentioned by Secretary Bay
ard eTery moment of delay involves in-
creasing peril to the country The com-
munistic element which is drawn almost
solely from these classes threatens soon
to be able to wield the balance of political
power Should its ambition ever be real-
ized the country may have to choose be
tween a partial abandonment of constitu
tional liberty and a surrender to anarchy
Such an alternative may be avoided
by prompt measures now looking to a
purifying of the stream of immigration
which is pouring into this country Who-
ever In or out of Congress refuses to join
in the adoption of such measures should
be put down as a demagogue who is
wDling to imperil the future of his coun-
try for the sake of personal aggrandize-
ment

OUR BOOK TABLE
THE NORTH AMERICAN REVIEWJone
Office of publication No 3 Hast Fourteenth
street New York
The opening article of this number
Parties and Independents is full of in-
terest to all right thinking citizens who
realize the responsibility of the franchise
and appreciate the momentous questions
Involved in Its right exercise Partisan-
ship In politics is always to be deprecated
and it is especially so in an hour like the
present when men are called to decide
whether principles vital to true republi-
canism shall guide their political acts or
whether they shall tamely submit to party
dictation So long as a party verifies
Edmund Burkes definition striving to
promote national interest and is not
based on patronage so long can men of
principle act in harmony with it but
when it becomes a machine for forward-
ing schemes and rewarding favorites
then no selfrespecting man who has the
courage of his convictions can remain In
such party relations
Parnell as a leader Within a small
space mucn of the history of the effort
for Irish independence is condensed and
thus put in shape for those who would
understand the Irish question without
the labor of Investigation The strugele
for national existence with the Irish peo-
ple has been going on for the last century
with unabated determination and in the
opinion of Mr Sullivan the present
leader of the movement Is worthy his
high position preserving in himself the
best traits of the race whose liberty he
demands The writer commends the
wisdom of Mr Parnell in his choice of
men to assist him in carrying on the
work and concludes the estimate in
these words Parnell may not be a
Napoleon but he will never lead an army
to Moscow in midwinter
The press of the country is constantly
brought to the bar of public criticism but
this court however censorious has failed
to fasten any damaging verdict on that
power which has been so active in ferret-
ing out corruption in high places and
holding up deeds of evil in the light of
day The Court of Public Opinion
according to Mr Quigg Anally approves
the judgment of the press and public
journals have little to fear from a course
howeveradversely criticisedwhich injthe
end leads to the triumph of justice and
the discomfiture of evildoers
THE LILIES OF FLORENCE By JGeorgcs
Sand translated by Lew VandcrpooJ John
W Lovell Company 14 and 16 Vescy street
New York
Whatever may be the difference of
opinion as to the moral effect of the
writings of Georges Sand Madame Dude
vant there can be none as to her won-
derfully fertile genius From the issu-
ance of her first work Indiana under
the pseudonym of Georges Sand in 1831
until the time of her death in 187G she
held a sway over the minds of her read
ers and became to many a moulder of
opinion on questions of social political
moral and religious import Though
there was no Held iu literature which she
did not enter her peculiar province was
that of novelist and in Jeanne La
Petite Fadette and other works of Action
written about that period she manifested
the true artist soul which alone
can make a successful novelist
Like a true Parisian she took a deep inj
terest in the political changes which
followed eacn other in rapid succession
and in 1848 entered the arena with
pamphlets newspapers and all the
weapons of the press
In this short notice it is not the pur-
pose to write a biography but to show
the wonderful versatility which marked
the genius of this woman and now Mr
Vanderpool asserts that there is an enor-
mous quantity of Anished work which she
left unpublished comprising some of her
best efforts The book mentioned is from
this collection and the posthumous fame
of this recognized genius is safe in the
hands of so faithful a translator he hav-
ing caught the spirit of tHe author and
not contented himself with mere verbal
accuracy The opening story illustrates
national characteristics of the German
and Italian races and strikingly portrays
the superstitions and passions of the
two races so different in temperament
The last half of the volume contains
short stories ana legends of various
lands and their perusal is well calculated
to quicken any Aagging interest the pub-
lic may have felt in a writer who by her
wonderful powers of delineation held
men entranced for many years

The San Antonio Times a devoted anti

City Council for refusing to permit the
Prohibitionists the use of the public
square for speaking etc in a well
timed neatly worded article which we
reproduce elsewhere The Times is
right and the City Council and the peo-
ple of San Antonio who approve of the
course pursued are wrong We do not
shirk of evade the fullest freest and
most exhaustive discussions on the con-
trary we court and invite it on every
stump in every paper and in every pub-

we struggle is a sacred one In it is in-
volved the dignity of the citizenship of
Texas and we do not fear the result
when once the people are thoroughly
educated on the question They can only
be educated by hearing and reading both
sides The action of the San Antptfio
council was not only unwise but it was
impolitic and we hope we have heard the

The people of Texas ought to decide to
put the paper mill which seems to be at-
tracting so much attention at Dallas for
they build so many different schemes on
paper that the supply will run out very
quickly If they dont put it there they
had oetter put it in Fort Worth where
the Dallas people can have access to it-
