ing them to establish monopolies In bust
ness, TO the exclusion Of all who fought for
the Confeieracy or differ from them in
political opinion. They consider the State
their oyster, and with your sword they de-
sire to open II. We ask you, General, not
to suffer yourself to be imposed upon by
these would.be monopolists, many Of whom
are men who noH profess TO have done
vast things FOR the Union, but who, when
the cannon roared, the muskeis ratified,
when the bayonets CLEANED in the sunlight
or dripped with purple gore, were too COW.

the CONSUMPTION was .cvied, hid like rae
coons and hares in the swamps and caves.
Theirs is n character, General, that you,
brave soldier, we know, cannot admire.
General, we would call your particular
attention to the fact that, throughout the
entire judicial District of which he has
been appointed Judge, ii is almost univcr-
sally complained by the press and people
that the Hon. Hardin Hart hns been very
dcrclict in the performance of his duty
that he fails TO hold court at the appointed
times, causing disappointment and loss
to the people, and encouraging scoundrels
who go unwhipi OF justice in the perpetra-
lion Of fresh atrocities. 1t is also com
planned that This Judge is n violent parli- !
san, going from place to place, malgning
and slaudering the people whose lives and
property, rs it were, are in his hands
There is law, we understand, on the
statute book imposing deduction of $500
from the salary of n Judge failing to hold |
his court at the regular time, without a
sufficient excuse for his failure. 1t is be-
lieved-indeed, we may say known--that
Judge Hart is moi able to give any good
reason for not holding his courts; and we
call upon you, General J. J. Reynolds, as
the great conservator Of the territory, or
satrapy, or State, and as one who has pro-
missed to restore law and order, to inquire
into the conduct of Hardin Hart, or force
Gov. Pesse, (whose creature heis), to do SO,
and if the Judge deserves punishment, to
fine him or turn him out, MS his conduct, OH
a fair investigation, may appear to merit.
You cannot, General, neglect this matter
without great injustice to peaceful, law
abiding loyal, tax-paying, industrious,
good citizens, who may be considered as
appealing through us to your sense of jus.
tice, and who look to You for relief and
redress.
Let the people of Texas know, General
Reynolds, that even the advocacy Of Radi.
calism will not sh ield them from the Just
penalty incurred by violators of honor and
law, at least while the State is under your
You cannot say, General Rey-
holds, with a clear conscience, that when
your mission is accomplished, you will
cave us or settle down in the State, ndif-
'erent as to the good or bad opinion of the
people over whom you now rule and TO
he kindness and courtesy and hospital
ty of whose reception of yourself you arc
he veriest hyena if you are inscnsiblc.
)ne of your predecessors, Gen. Hancock,
anne amongst us, and while he did not
urrender his political convictions, not only
romised, but did, "equal aud exact justice
o all men," He gained the good will and
reat respect Of the entire people properly !
TO the State Of Texas. By
