Desiring to throw as much light as pos
sible on tho dark places ot tbo coming
senatorial contest Tub Gazkttk not
long since requested certain gentlemen
hi all tbo representative and senatorial
districts ol tho stato to ascertain as lar as
they could do so tho preferences ol tbclr
members This was done not to boom
any particular candidate or to pull down
any candidate but purely tor tho edifica
tion ol tho public tho lnlorraatlon was
printed just as it camo to Tin Gazbitk
without knowlcdgo on tho part ol this
paper at the tlmo ol making the request
ol tho predilections ol a slnglo ono ol the
gentlemen to whom application was made
for tho Information In response to
Thk Gakttkh request replies
came from about 70 per cent
ot tho districts Assuming tho
correctness of the replies and takings
them as a basis for estimating the picfer
enecs ol tho districts not reported The
Gazkttk summed up tho report ol tho
probabilities ol the first ballot to bo
Maxcy fifty votes Terrell tblrtythreo
votes lteagan twentynino votes and Ire
land twentyflvo votes as tho outlook ap
peared when tho reports were printed
At once tho organs ol various candidates
assailed tho figures as a desire on tho part
of Tun Gazkttk to boom a certain gen
tleman for tbo senate Had this been tho
purposo of Thk Gazkttk this paper cer
tainly would havo done hotter cooking
than tho figures lndlcatobut tho object
being simply to print tho best attainable
Information tho roports woro given as
they camo and were so printed lu tho
paper that cooking without detection
was impossible tho reports had refer
ence only to tho beginning ol tho struggle
as porhaps not many of tho members
themselves could say bow thoy would
voto should tbo conditions ol tho contest
bo changod
Thk Gazkttk notes tho statements that
Senator Maxey puts his strength on llrst
ballot at sixty votes that Mr lteagan
puts his at lorty that Gov Ireland puts
his at thirty to thirtyfive and that Judgo
Terrell pnta his at thirtyfive to lorty
Knch ol these gentlemen doubtlcs3basts
his expectations on information derived
from others just as Thk Ga
zkttk did except that in tho
case of Tin Gazkttks informants
thero was desire only to furnish tho In
formation lot tbo result bo as It would
Evidently soroobody Is In error tho re
ports to Thk Gazkttk and to tho candi
dates cannot all bo correct but what we
aro waiting to hear Is an assault on tho
figures ol tho candidates and an asper
sion ot tholr motives lu making such
figures should not each ol them bo ac
cused ot booming himself at tho expense
ot tho others
Ro lar as Thk Gazkttks reports are
concornod thoy were honestly mado and
wcrotruolu tho main and 11 tho con
ditions ol tho canvass aro not
changed bcloro tho first ballot Is
talcou they will bo seen by all to
havo been correct But while Thk Ga
zkttk lecls perfectly confident ol tho hon
esty ol Its Informants It recognizes the
fact that tho districts unrcporlqt may not
voto proportionally with tboso reported
indeed every nonroportod voto might be
given to somo ono candidate or bo di
vided equally botweon only two candi
dates In Us summing np The Gazkttk
stated that tho unreported SO percent
was estimated upon the basis established
by the preferences ol the 70 per cent re
ported Hut tho llrst ballot will tell
whothcr Thk Gazkttks Informants wore
correct and it will also domonetrato
whether tho districts not reported vote
proportionately with thqso whoso prefer
ences wcro reported to The Gazkttk

Thk Gazette has taken occasion

tho lottery has Its home Texas is tho
most liberal contributor to tho revonucs
of tho Institution Thero ore no means
ot gottlng at tho amount paid by Tcxans
every year for tickets but tbo sum must
be enormous as is attested by tho Inter
est manifested In overy town in tho state
immediately nltor tho regular monthly

Word comes Irom Washington that Mr
Ilandall who by an alliance with tho lte
publtcans has thrco times defeated any
consideration of tariff reform has a plan
of his own for pushing his reform bill
through alter tho holidays
Mr IUndalls Idea Is to greatly reduco
tho tax on whisky nnd tho tax on tobacco
and to reluco the revenue on imports by
Increasing tho rate IIo is especially
anxious to have the duty on tinplate ad
vanced to 2 conts
Tho duty on tluplato Is now 1 cont a
pound which Is 80 per cont ad valorem
Tho rovonuo dorlved from tho Importa
tion Is 65055691 Tho quantity Imported
Is 505550076 pounds <
This Is a compound of Iron and tin It
enters largely into the manulacturo of
kitchen and household unttnsils gutter
ing and numerous other articles ol com
mon use It is tho raw material lor a
number ol manulactnrers and an increase
in tbo tax of ono and a half cents would
bo almost prohibitory Tho five mUtlons
now going Into tho treasury would still
bo taken from tho people and about five
millions moro but Instead of swclllncthe
revenues of tho government Uils sum
would swell the profits ol a ring that sent
Mr Jnrrett to Illinois to deleat Mr Mor
rison whom they could not uso
Tho same proposition was beforo con
gress last session It was defeated by the
opposition ol Mr Morrison and tho ring
mastois thou threatened him with their
powor It seoms that Mr Kandall is
their peculiar and persistent representa
tive The amount involved Is large An
lncreaso lu tho prlco ol tinplate 11
cents and tho purchase ol 500000000
pounds ot tho American manufacturer
gives this ring a prospective revenue of
87500000 on this quantity alone It is
not surprising that these manufacturers
iiVlKJl Wsi >
had money to spend to deloat Mr Morrl
son It Is surprising that Democrats
should consent to bo their agents
The Ilindall plan Ot reform Is freo
whisky freo tobacco but higher prices
for clothing for shelter lor tools ma
