Tho Tyler Record says: ' If all
Texas politicians, who are working for
"No. 1," should suddonly die, what a
campaign wo should have during
lh'J2." Well Tyler wouldn't bo in it.
She would bo depopulated.
The Austin Evening News says:
"Tho Railway Commission is too firm
ly embedded iu the howls of tho peo
ple to tuako a Oght on now. They
are determined to give it a thorough
trial. But if tho Commission expoots
to stay it must give equal justice to
the peoplo and to the railroads."
Granted. The Commission is here to
staj but not the present Commission
ers who have demonstrated that they
know nothing whatever about tho rail
Toad business, neither have tho pro
visions in tho present law that turns
over to them every dollars worth of
railroad property in the state come to
stay, nor the present govornor who
forced the lust legislature to pass suoh
a law.
The Austin Statesman thus sizes
np tho Tammany candidate:
"David Bennott Hill is presuming
too much on the patienco of tho peo
ple in his continued lack of attention
tion to his duties at Washington
while ho remains in Albany manipu
lating aiTairs for his midwinter con-v-Gutiuu
Twice, at his request was a
matter of importance put off in the
senate, but when ho asked a third
time to have it delayed tho request
was sternly refused, and tho matter
was disposed of in his absence. And
this man who thus nogloots his sworn
duty, and who has mado himself so
obnoxious that tho family from whom
ho had leased rooms requested him to
vacate this man asks the Demooratiu
party for their nomination for the
highest ofJQco in tho gift of tho peo
ple! Impudenoo and self-assurance
flan go no furthorl''
Tho statesman might havo added
that this is tho man tho Hogg heelers
are trying to foist upon tho Texas
Democracy as its candidate for presi
dent.
HUNTING GARZA.
United Statos troups aro raiding
tho Texas frontier just now in a liuut
for the Moxican bandit Garza and a
dispatch from Uarrizo says: "Some
officers will rush thoir command into
and round-up a ranch, oach ranch in
this lower country is a liltlo villago,
containing from 75 to liOO peoplo
dismount tho men and they will rush
from jaokal to jaokal hunting, as they
say, for revolutionists, and will take
Winchesters, pistols, saddles, spurs,
quirts and whatever thoy see they
want. They havo knocked down
doors and scarohed tho houses, brok
on opon trunks and ransacked thorn."
Citizons of Texas should not bo sub
jected to suoh indignatiesand it is tho
duty of Governor Hogg to see that
they aro protcoted ovon against Unit
ed States soldiers. The News is
aware that the governor has a heap on
his mind now in prose luting his
claims for re-eleotiou and A. 1". Alice
but those people out on the border aro
boing outrageously treated if reports
aro true; it is the business of the stato
department to ascertain whether they
aro true or not. The govornor should
instituto intervention proceedings or
something of the kind, and in this
caso we can assuro him there will be
no questions asked if his action is in
dofouse of the citizens of Texas.
