Notice.
The republican county central
committee or Cass count3- Ael., is
hereby' called to meet at Weeping
Water on Saturday March 26th at
o clock p. m. Important busines
wiil come before the meeting and a
full attendance is earnestly re
quested.
Oklando Tefft, Chairman.
A. L. Timblin, Secretary.
THE nominating: conventions
should bear the important fact in
mind that no person "holding an
office of trust or profit under the
United States" is eligible to the
position of presidential elector.
Since The Herald mentioned
the name of Hon. R. B. Windham as
a delegate-at-large to the repub
can nominating convention for
president, we notice by our ex
changes that he is favorably spoken
Of. ' " - ' '
ITALY has made arrangements to
send another minister to this
country and open up friendly rela
tions once more. The Mafia inci
dent, in its international phase,
may be said to have closed. Mean
while the relatives of the dead mal
efactors are bringing suits for dam
acres before the courts of New
Orleans, but the general public do
not care anything about the out"
come of these suits. .
The non-dutiable imports largely
exceed the dutiable.'. From July 1,
1891, to the end of January, 1892, the
free goods- which came to the
country were of the value of
$243,000,000 in round figures, . and
the dutiable goods $21600,000. "In
corresponding period of the previ
ous nscal year tne tree goods
amounted to only $176,000,000 and
the dutiableto, $298,1 30. The
McKinley law made the change.
And yet the democrats say that
that act increased the duties.
There is no comparison to be
made between the qualifications of
Dovey and Butler for the import
ant office of mayor. Mr. Butler
with a brief residence in the city,
has only served in a clerical capac
ity. He has been a clerk in the B. &
M. store house and held the position
as book-keeper in the county treas
urer's office, while on the other
hand Mr. Dovey was born in the city
and takes a natural pride in its ad
vancement. He is a large property
owner and has had the advantages
of a strong practical business edu
cation. His position as an active
partner in the largest mercantile
house in the county.has given him
a schooling in executive councils
that could not be surpassed. The
conclusion is a logical one that the
republicans made the best possible
nomination, while the democrats
might have named any one of the
five hundred clerks in the shops or
the city and got just as good a man
as C. M. Butler.
SENATOR MILLS. OF TEXAS
It in now nearly tifty years since
Texas had a distinct existence, first
as an independent republic, then as
one of the states of the United States
During all that time it has had on
ly two public men to rise above the
level of mediocrity, General Sam
Houston and Roger J. Mills. Neith
er could claim rank among the great
statesmen. Houston was a man of
some genius and more eccentricity.
He died early in the war, his death
hastened, it is said, by an over
whelming sense of the awfulness of
civil war. Mr. Mills began his ca
reer as a member of the Forty-third
Congress, serving continuously
evei since, until now he has been
promoted to the Senate, such pro
motion being trie natural sequence
of his prominence in the House.
Mr. Mills did not attract attention
until lie became chairman of the
committee on ways and means, af
ter the forced retirement from Con
gress of Colonel Morrison. With
Carlisle in the chair Mills became
the leader of the democracy on the
lloor of the House. He had some
glaring faults, some notable quali
fications. He never could rule his
own teviper and keep himself on
ice, but what he lacked in prudence,
was made good, perhaps in frank
ness. His tariff bill of 1888 was cer
tainly less objectionable than the
"horizontal bill" of his immediate
predecessor. It was not so utterly
indefensible if it was equally obnox
ious to protectionists. It had the
merit of being a fair and square
embodiment of the principle of free
trade, that is, as near as could be
reasonably expected. He showed
more intelligence, courage and sin
cerity than Morrison.
In the Senate Mr. Mills will find
himself in a climate better suited to
his temperament. He will be sub
ject to less irritation and proding.
In the calm and dignified air of the
Senate he ought to be able to main
tain a serenity of soul. He received
such a severe setting back in the
defeat of his aspirations for the
speakership that he will hardly at
tempt to pose as a leader, which no
new senator ought to do. Even M-r,
Blaine when he was transferred to
the Senate took a back seat, and
Dave Hill will wish he had. Car
lisle lias been put forward some
what, but he has a quiet way with
him which is a shield against the
shafts of envy. Mr. Mills may be
expected to make two speeches at
hpR at
this session, one on the tariff, the
other on silver. He is supposed to
feel supreme contempt for the
piecemeal tariff of Springer, Hill,
and the democracy of the present
Congress, and to be in perfect ac
cord with the Bland silver bill. He
will hardly allow the session to pass
without airing his views on both
subjects, especially on the tariff.
He is not only opposed to the
Springer policy, and to Springer
himself, but more especially to the
free-wool bill reported by Springer.
Texas is a great wool state, and it is
safe to say that if Mills had been
speaker, or chairman of the com
mittee on ways and means, the du
nes on wool, not the last to come
down, would certainly not nave
been the first to feel the knife.
The democrats of the Hill-Brice"
Gorman junta who thought they
had scored a point by crushing
Mills last December may conclude
before the year is out that ' they
made a long primer mistake. " The
Senate is not the speaker's chair,
but it is a coign of vantage in more
ways than one. : The stone which
the builders rejected in December
has not become the head of the cor
ner by a good deal, but it has once
more become an important factor
in national poliics. Inter Ocean.
TARIFF REFORM AND WOMEN.
"I'm a democrat," remarked the
woman, "and I'm in favor of the
Springer revenue tariff, and all
women ought to be."
"Why?" inquired a bystander.
Because it neips tne women
more than it does anybody else."
"Why?" again inquired the by
stander.
"You must be a republican," she
snapped, "or you'd see. Dosn't he
propose to cut ori d,ow,uaj duties
on raw wool and $17,500,000 as half
the "duties on woolen manufac
tures?"
"I believe so."
"Well, that will reduce the price
of clothing so that our husbands
will be able to get two pairs of
pants where they got one before."
"What's that got to do with the
wemen?"
"Everything, stupid! they'll have
a chance to wear the other pair,
and that's what they need to equal
ise them wi:,S the men."
''Ugh!" grunted the bystander,
walking oft, "I guess you don't
need an extra pair."
The Standard Oil trust has finally
dissolved, and we believe. forever.
It might have accepted the Ohio
decision for what it was worth, and
organizvd unoer a New Jersey char
ter, as the sugar trust did after the
adverse decision of the New York
courts, or it might have appealed to
the supreme court of the United
States. - But with its usual shrewd- L
ness it did neither. It knew that
Crockett's rifle was pointed at it, 1
and it "came down" without wait
ing to be shot down. It knew that
the federal law would be likely to
tackle it after it got through with
the whisky trust. It knew that the
party that enacted the Sherm in
anti-trust bill was in earnest. And
it surrendered unconditionally. If
the sugar trust be prudent it will
do likewise.

becoming a rase of nervous wrecks
