To t casual observer does it not
seem a little presumptuous for a New

developed snore politicisl tad finaa-
clil ratcality than sny oily on earth
and when the air is yet filled with
tbe offensive odor of ksr foal nets to
attempt to teach the ptoplo of Texts
their dnty on these lines. Tbe doctor
also declare in reply to a leading
question that tbe Galveston Medical
College "Is one of tbe beet in the
United States." This is a revelation
to our people were and are inclined
to the belief that tbia school is an ex-
pensive institution for turning loose
upon tho atato au annual installment
of calamities wcrse in proportion
to numbers tban tbe locusts of Egypt.
Before a man marts out to preach

Tbe young progretaive elements
have joined with the republicans
principally on the tariff and
money isuo. We shall atrt a
newspaper very so-n in the interest
of the fusion. We shall carry spring
elections in New Orlein a and other
cities and in 1896 we will not only
elect the republican presidential elec
tow but our candidates for governor
and other stite and aiunty officers
and a majority of tbo cjnsrrossmen
and members of tbo legislature. We
elected two omgrassnna hat Novem-
ber everybody ooncales it-am! thoy

happen agsiu. We are goiui; to have
an honest nnd a free election this
timo or know tbe reason why. Bal-

Chiefly tbo industrial cl.ica. Ths

Iu no etato has there boon more auf

tradesmoc and every other class who
depend directly or indirectly upon tbo
pay -rolls of the industrial iuter'file.
Yuu will not find a man in New
Orleans who ia not willing to bold tho

tion in tbo precinct whvrn Senator
