expressive of the writers opinions Facts
of an Interesting nature will be printed
bnt comments will not be used unlets
specially solicited
It Is uselrss to pass any appropriation
to the Columbian exposition while the
infamous force bill Is pending We will
have no country and no prosperity if that
bill Is passed and I will veto any appro-
priation for the Worlds fair until all meas-
ures to degrado the South are dropped
Governor Hill to the New York legisla-
ture when the force bill was pending In
congress
The senatorial issue is wending its
way toward the gubernatorial issue
It is not so sure after all about
Texas being a backslider as to silver
Judge Terrells card denying that
his Georgetown references were in
tendecTfor the Old Alcalde has bristles
on it larger than a razorback ever
grew
AttorneyGeneral Culberson
has the solid indorsement of Jefferson
for governor The people are keeping
a close eye on The Gazettes possi-
bilities
The announcement that Farmer
Shaw has taken the warpath will prob-
ably produce a call for volunteers in
Waco Where oh where is Russell
Kingsburys bazoo
Old Dave Culberson will be in
the senatorial race this summer for
himself the indications are that Mr
Mills will bo in it for himself for sena-
tor and for Clark for governor
The Fat Mens club of Dallas favors
Clark for governor although the
present governor weighs as much as
the Waco man with half a bale of cot-
ton together The Dallas fat men are
not true firstprinciples
Since the New York Times reported
Mr Mills as being opposed to the
Bland bill lie seems to have undergone
a change of heart The question is
who is responsible for it Mr Martin
of Hood or The Gazette
The appointment of Judge Rector of
Austin to the Federal district judge-
ship to succeed Judge McCormick is one
eminently fit to be made and one for
which President Harrison should be
commended by Democrats as well as by
Republicans
Judge Terrells allusion at George-
town to the retirement of a governor to
a professorship conferred by his ap
pointees has aroused a storm among
the friends of Governor Ross It is to
be a great campaign and now is the
time to subscribe
The makeup of the house conference
committee on the free silver resolution
corroborates The Gazettes proph
eoy Mr Mills friends will not per-
mit the free silver resolution to go
through in such a shape as to be a de-
mand for free silver legislation
With two or three exceptions
says an Austin letter to the Dallas
News the senators regard the silver
issue as a small matter It is proba-
ble the senators have been misrepre-
sented if not it is certain they are not
in plumb with the views of their con-
stituents upon the subject
A Cleveland organ in Texas now
denies that Governor Hill ever said
anything about a force bill in a message
to the New York legislature A paper
that becomes an echo for Republican
calumnies against Hill which his own
state has overwhelmingly repudiated
may be expected to do a little lying on
its own account
NOT ANTAGONISTIC ISSUES
The talk about paramount issues is
nothing more nor less than a search
for a pretext to bury the financial issue
at the behest of a few silkstockings of
New York city and Boston who with
few exceptions are not Democrats
never were Democrats and never will
be Democrats If they can scare the
Democratio party away from tho only
issue in which they feel any interest it
matters nothing to them what else it
advocates or opposes Tho people who
speculateupon tho expansion and con-
traction of prices care no more about
tho tariff issue than they caro about
the rainfall in Hindostan but they aro
greatly interested in preventing tho
issue of a sufficient volume of money to
do the business of tho country because
with that their occupation would bo
gone
Tho man who asserts thinkingly that
the tariff issue is the paramount
issue means by that if he means any-
thing that financial reform must be
sacrificed in order to secure tariff re-
form If he doesnt mean that what
does ho mean What occasion is
there for contrasting the two issues
and seeking to place themin an attitude
of hostility Financial reformers are
to a man tariff reformers they are as
ardent advocates of tariff reduction as
those who would stop reform at the
tariff Then what just cause is there
for playing off one issue against the
other There Is none It is simply a
trick a trick ofWall streetwhich has
unhappily duped sincere Democrats
even in Texas
The Democratic party is not a hobby-
horse party It never was It has

always been its boast that its platforms
bavo been broad enough for every
honest seeker after the betterment of
the condition of the country to stand
upon It will not at this lato day re-
pudiate its historic attitude merely
to gratify the demand of such notorious
speculators and turncoat3 as William

WAsniXGTOS March 25 The friends o
free coinage acknowledge that it has re-
ceived a temporary backset bat do not ad-
mit that it will bo ultimately defeated The
check it got in the house yesterday was a
complete surprise to friend and foe To-
night the advocates of the Bland bill feel as
much in fightinghumor as ever and haTa
no intention of giving up the battle Yester
days nartial defeat does not dsmay them
A good many of thoteh Republicans who
voted witn Bland yesterday are so luke-
warm as to be of little real advantage to the
cause and their indifference and halfway
support did as much as anything elso to
strengthenthe gold gang
The country ought to Jtnow that tho fel
lows who went around posing as silver
ltcs but really losing no chance to stab the
bill are nearly all trying to foist Grover
Cleveland on the Democratic party Sev-
eral of them wero connected with the waja
and means committee of the Fiftieth con-
gress whose leaders managed the cam-
paigns of 1SSS with such miserablo results
The Massachusetts mugwumps are de-
lighted over what they term a victory and
Messrs Harter Hoar Williams and Tracy
of New York who read the announcement
of Mr Mills election to the senate with
such glee are exulting over what they re-
gard as the burial of tho Bland bill
I still think the Bland bUL will pass but
it will bo by a very slender margin
Judge Abbott who made a very powerful
argument in favor of the bill said tonight
that he believes it will yet go through the
house but that if it should fail the conse-
quences are going to bo disastrous to ths
Democracy and especially in the Sojith
The farseeing leaders of the party concur
with him in this view

Washington March 25 Bland during
the afternoon session of the house disclosed
his plan by the introduction of a resolution
fixing March 23 as tho date on which the
bill for free coinage of silver and pending
amendments will Be taken up and put upon
passage Accompanying the resolution is a
provision giving the speaker power to re-
fuse to entertain any dilatory motion The
resolution went to tho committee on rules
In view of the extreme closeness of the vote
on the silver question as disclosed last
night an analysis of the tie vote on tho test
motion of Mr Burrows of Michigan to lay
the Bland bill on the tablo will be interest-
ing Each side secured 14S votes and thir
tyfive members were put down as not vot-
ing of which number twenty were paired
leaving fifteen unpaired Of the 13 votes
cast favorine the motion eightytwo were
cast by Democrats and sixtysix by

reservations in the Indian Territory and
also tho lands recently ceded to the
United States by the Sisseton and
Wahpeton Indians of North Dakota
and South Dakota Secretary Noble has

removed therefrom by tho military
The former reservation will be opened

tho fact that Secretary Blaine attended the

ing presumably in regard to orders to be

Baagherty Bribery Inveitlgatlon
Washington March 23 Tho committee
of the lower house of the Ohio legislature
appointed to investigate the charges of
bribery against Mr Daugherty in connec-
tion with the recent senatorial election
arrived today and tonight took Mr
Shermans testimony Mr Sherman in
answer to questions by Mr Reiter stated
that he has known Daugherty for about ten
years and has been informed by individuals
and he saw in newspapers that the conven-
tion which nominated him also instructed
Mm to voto for his Mr Shermans re-
turn th the United States senate and thaV
he always believed that Mr Daugherty
wanted to carry out these instruction
As to the charge of bribery Mj Sherman
said he never offered nor paid or author-
ized to be offered or paid to Mr Daugherty
any sum of money at all to influenca
his vote The senator also
saw that what was true in the case of Mr
Daugherty applied to all members of the
legislature As to the marked bills
drawn from the Deshler bank by
Mr Hahn he knew cothind
All the money he furnished was to pay the
board bills of those of his friendswho went
