THE idea broached by the Austin
State Journal, and re-echoed by small
potato Radicals, that the late election
was not legal, because not held for four
days, is too preposterous to merit one
moments consideration from any man
having the ordinary allowance of com
mon sense. The idea is superlatively
absurd, and too contemplate to receive
moments notice.
Governor Davis was fully consulted
during the preparation and passage OF
the election law, and unrescrvedly CON
Cured in the view taken by the Legis-
lature. Not only so, but he approved
the election law. Not only this, but
he ran ms candidate under the law,
for re-election-so did Keuchler forthe
Land Office.
Not only this, but the Radicals held
State Convention IN Dallas, and nom
mated full State ticket underthe law.
They have had their candidates for
State, District and County officers, all
over the State, under the law. And
now, after they have been defeated
about forty thousand votesin the State,
instead Of gracefully yielding and leav-
ing some claims to common respect
among. mankind, these unprinclpled
malcontentants would brand them
selves as infamous world without end.
We are no friends Of Governor PAWS;
neither haye We eysr prosecuted him
But We believe he will lend hisnanie
to no such infamy.

Forty THOUSAND MAJORITY OF the
people of Texas have peacefully ex-
pressed their will In the late election.
At least fifteen thousand more failed
to vote because of the disgust they felt
at the Radical outrages, and under the
belief, honest though mistaken, that
their votes would do no good, 10 We
have elearlya majority of 5000 against
the Radicals of this State. Yet few
of our people, in the blindness of their
nature, voted for the Radical andidate
for Superintendent Of Public Instrue-
tion, because he happened to live in
Dallas county. Notwithstanding this
expression Of kindly feeling towards
him personally, that same man Il now
preaching the revolutionary nonsense
that the late election was not legal II
not, why did he run and do his Level
best to be elected? Answer that qucs-

Very. well; the Legislators, by the last
election law, approved by Governor
Davis, March 81, 1873, did otherwise
provide hy law, by solemnly enacting
that precinct elections should be res
tored, and therefore all the people could
vote In one day. That they were right
in fact is proved by the pregnant truth
that in one day now in DslIas county
2, 400 people voted, while iH four days
last year only | ,e4el yoted-increasc 754.
/ In Collin, Tarrant and Ellis, the in
crease is still greater, .+
We now repeat, rs the then repre-
sentative of Dallas county, that the
ablest lawyers in both Houses conferred
with Gov. Davis on this subject-that
he and they fully agreed that the new
law was constitutional-that Governor
Davis ordered t,c late. election un-
der the law-that he was himself a
candidate. for re-elecilon-thut nispaTt,
had a State conyention .die being pres
en-; ami Participating aud aonlinatrt
a falltiskct underit -thathis Secretsr,
of State sent out blanks to hold tn,
election-that by all the solemnlties o
! sworn officers his party have recogniz
ed and acted under it-that several o
his, party voted for the law-thaC th'
Attorney General endorsed Its oonstl
tutiouality, and that IN all the DELHI
ferations gu the whole subject, not or,
man, Democrat or Radical, ever ex
bpressed a doub' as to the legal right o
the Legislature and Governor to enac
the precise. law under which the lat
election was held. We might just a
well assume that Washington was no
legally elected President of The Un'te'
states in 1889, because the sc-eaIlc
States were dependent colonies qf u
