The Fort Worth Democrat says : The
Stockraisers' Association of North
west Texas lately in session at Jacks-
boro took steps to secure a better tariff
on cattle shipments from Texas points.
The present rate from Fort Worth is
$100 to St. Louis and $130 to Chicago.
Cattle are shipped from Kansas points
at t40 to Chicago. The distance in the
drive from tne Wicnitaa to UoffeeviUe
is but little more than to Fort Worth
not enough to make any material dif
ference to the stockraiser. Roads do
ing business in Texas should consider
the matter and give the shippers a bet
ter rate if possible as the amount of
business they bring to tbe roads is too
great to be lost and tbe stock men
threaten to drive to Kansas if the re
duction is not made.
Edmund Burleson an inteligent ne
gro man from Burleson county was re
turning with other negroes through
Dallas the other day from Kansas
when he was interviewed by a Uerahl-
Commercial reporter. He went as far
as Parsons where he found tbe exodus
ters huddled in great numbers in the
churches and school houses. After
paying their railroad fare with but
few exceptions none of them had any
money left and when the cold snap
came on their suffering was terrible.
The night before he left Parsons one of
their number froze to death. The cold
was intense and their clothing being
thin and their bed-clothing skimppy
they suffered severely. Destitute and
penniless they have been forced to
forage on the surrounding country for
food to keep them alive and would
have frozen to death had they not
stolen coal from the railroad. Their
depredations on the settlers have
caused an ill-feeling on the part of the
resident towards tbero and they are
fast feeling the effects of their dis
pleasure. He sajs that it took cash
and lots of it to purchase the bare
necessities of life. The only thing
be saw that was cheap was corn.
which sells at from ten to twenty
eight cent a bushel. There were so
many of them together that it was im
possible lor them to get work at any
price. Land rents are required to be
paid cash down and the rates are gen
eraliy from three to tour dellars per
acre. Lauds that rent at this price
are without fences or bouses of any
kind. He thought the lands of Texas
far superior while they produced
greater variety. "I would not so far
as I am concerned rive Burleson
county for the whole ot Kansas" said
tne old man with much earnestness.
Tbey wish themselves back but the
trouble is they have spent all their
money getting there and but very few
have anything to get away on. He went
from Parsons to Emporia where he
found tbe same state of affairs exist
ing. There are numbers ot them leav
ing every day afoot and without
means walking through to this State
on their return home. One of the
women that accompanied him was
sent back by her husband who had
barely enough money to pay her paa-
sage while be ia coming t a roue a aloot.
He regards the whole matter as a polit-
ical movement engendered by the Re-
publicans for the purpose of swelling
the rote of Kansas.
At last the bloody shirt era have
something with which to occupy their
minds at home. Blaine has been con-
tinually tinging this proverbial gar-
ment to tbe breeze and now he baa
something ia Maine worse than
bloody shirt to play with. In fact be-
fore Uarcelen gets through with him
and bia piratical crew they will have
only a rareJ be J rabbled garment to
tlane la U.e i ce cf an j body.
EDITORIAL NOTES.
Printing paper is sharing the fate of
other manufactured articles at tbe prtf-
ent time in experiencing a very decided
boom. A continuapce of the rise in
price which has been going on for a
few mon-hs past wili senoutdy contract
the prrfi: of publishers unless inven-
tion shall come to their rescue in the
meantime with cheaper methods of pro-
duction and new fields for capital
Tbe Xiw York Herald says that Sen-
ator Tkurman while speaking in the
Senate leans forward not with round
shoulders but earnestly. II s voice is
loud clear somewhat grating hut still
rr sonant though no sweet. He wipes
his forehead much with a red handker-
chief and seems to ponder in bis speech.
He is regirded as tbe foremost man io
taat body in debate but he lacks polit-
ical coursge anil often l.iaes by waver-
ing where a point should be carried
with boldness.
While experimenting on (o' i brace-
lets which bave a tiny mouse holding a
diamond aNw York artisan discover-
ed a method of turning gold to any de-
sired color. He succeeded in produc-
ing a perfect mouse color through an
accident discovered that a chemical ac-
tion would impart variegated hues and
now gold emblems in all the harmo-
nies of color are produced. Autumn
leaves are turned out ra gold with the
exact splendor of nature and gold birds
have their feathers tinted in natural
colors.
Murat nalstead says of Grant: "We
got along very well without Grant
while he was going around the world
and we do not need him now. There
are 1000000 citizsna of the United
Spates as capable a he of being a good
President for the four years succeeding
Hayes. Any capable justice of the
ccace is tqial to the chief magistracy.
Tbe American people must not be per-
mitted to make asses of themselves
about the need cf rulers. We do rot
require anybody to rule over us. We
are Republicans and rule ourselves.
The President isn't a ruler."
POLITICAL NOTES.
Government is a necessary evil. The
weaker the people the stronger must
the government be. The demand
wbieh the Republican party makes
for a strong government is therefore
a confession of the failure of the ex
periment of self-government in this
country. But the Republican party
standa on universal suffrage and the
equal rights of all man.
Senator Kelloger ot Louisiana says
the Maine affair is precisely like the
case in Louisiana some years ago. The
returns elected the Democratic Gover-
nor and legislators but Kellogg says
he telegraphed to Grant and tbe gov
ernment recognized him and. left Mc-
Eoery out in the cold. He thinks tbe
President will recognize the Republican
egislature in M arne.
fBKaoxville Tribune says : Sena-
ton Blaine. vT&cn speaking makes bis
most emphatic andNWUScular gestures
with his left arm. Ha might try a
cood. strong straieht-froia-the-shoul.
der left-bander on Governor Uarcelon
with more effect than his chin-wagging
about "bloodshed and fight" is likely
to bave. Garcelon a man of stern
character of unbending and unflinching
determination cannot be moved by an
oratorical bully. Let Blaine show him
that a wrong has been committed and
unless the Governor's character is mis-
taken he will right it. There is some
respect for law in these United States
and talk about "bloodshed" in a matter
of this sort is ridiculous.
The Rev. Mr. Sargent of Maine"
(Rap.) would "carry a musket over
bis shoulder and a revolver in each
pocket if necessary" to organize the
Legislature on a Republican basis.
The Rev. Mr. Sargent should go west
as far as St. Louis and match himself
against a Siberian bloodhound. Per-
haps however the foam of fury which
abviously ornaments the lips of tbe
Kev. Mr. bargent may bo attributable
to the mastication of castile soap
rather than to the uncontrollable work
ings of a high Cistilian spirit. It is
possible that if there was to be any
righting at Augusta next week the rev-
erend gentleman might remember that
he had a trustees' meeting or some-
thing on hand at home the moment he
heard the roll of the Federal drum and
saw the riotous Blaine led off by a po-
liceman. FOREIGN NOTE?.
William Hepworth Dixon the his
torian and traveler is dead.
If the Liberals come again into power
in England the result will be due to
the influence the eloquence and the
learning of Gladstone.
The police of Berlin have discovered
a printing press used for Socialist pur
poses. Tbe printer and two of his
assistants were arrested.
The Turkish Sultan's dinner partirs
are said to be rather joyless affaire.
The food is either cold or ill-cooked
and the few Turkish nobles who are
admitted to tbe batquet sit in utter
silence save when the Sultan addresses
them.
Party etiquette however will ac
cording to uage give the premiership
to one of two figure-heads Lord Har-
rington or the Earl of Granyille.
Strange world! Even in the land of
the free and tbe home of the brave the
leaders are seldom first in office.
A Bsrlin dispatch to the Standard
says : "Tbe Russian government does
not conceal its intention of attacking
Merv and possibly Herat in tbe
spring. Gen. Kaufmann will command
an expedition starting from the Amu
Darya river and Gen. TerguVasoff an-
other starting from the Caspian sea."
French polities seem to be comprised
in the words innovation and revolution.
The temperament of the people ia averse
to stability of government. They glide
with equal facility from a Monarchy to
a Repuollc; from a Republic to an Em
pire and then flinging crowns aside as
baubles take up arms in defense of
egalite and hi republique. Orleanist
Bourbon and Bonap rtiat factions have
not yet settled tbe question of preced
ence or the right of succession. A
French crisis has occurred in Wadding
ton ministry and the members have
sent la their resignations which were
forwarded to President Grevy. Paris
has not indulged tor some time in barri-
cades and coups d'etat. Perhaps those
national games mil revive ere many
months to the great delight of tbe ga
mins and revolutionists of the gay cap
ital.
