INNS 3 no - No DIVISION.

The disappr0l,ation Of the International
bond matter By the Thirteenth Legislature
Is what gave rise IN shc minds Of maIcon-
tents in Texas to the hope that rock was
underlying the political surface upon which
the Democratic party would in the present
canvass break into q hopeless mass Of con-
fusion. The plans were laid, and simulta-
neousIy some Republican papers, and one or
two Democratic %, commenced an uncom-
promising attack upon the Thirteenth Leg
isIature in consequence Of this question
mainly. The action Of the Legislature upon
this matter was one which could have no
positive effect, but at the same time it
was Just indignation against acts granting
money subsidies, and an earnest that thence
forward the people would be protected from
such State obligations. But this express
sion on the part Of the Legislature has been
regarded by many OF those members who
voted FOR It as one not pertinent to the Leg
lature. It was at once seized upon and
work Of disintegration attempted.
Designing men hoped to use itas the apple
OF discord TO break the unity Of party
which heretofore, in this State, had been inn
pregnable and powerful. The Republican
party, weakened through its corruptions,
hoped to make a union with one wing Of
the Democracy, the railroad wing. Such
an effort at once aroused the earnest thought
Of all Democrats, and even those once OPP
posed to the bonds IA toto now very gener-
ally have declared themselves not opposed
70 their payment should the courts decide
they are legal. In fact It is now justly
conceded in the party, there is no power
by which the law authorizing them can be
set aside, except through the courts, where
the matter now rests, and where, as far as the
Democratic party is. concerned, it will be
permitted to rest for It's final settlement.
The split fondly looked for will not take
place, the party viii remain as a whole, and
will respect alllegal obligationsOf the State.
It's record win be against the Republication
Of State obligations, though they may set
ever so gallingIy upon the necks Of the
people. AS to liberal encouragement Of
internal improvements in another form
the party is united.

In his day no man was more famous in
the annals of American politics than David
Crockett, the eccentric Congressman from
Tennessee.
Early in the spring Of 1886, there ap-
peared ut Naeogdoches, Texas, eleven
stalwart men who proposed to enlist for six
months in the army of the Republic, and as
sist in driving the Mexicans out of the
borders and gain the independence of Texas.

important positions of honor and trust
in the State of his adoption, sworc in
the eleven recruits referred to; but
when he came to that portion of the oath
which contained the promised allegiance

government that might be established, /" one
of them advanced pace forward and de-
clined to subscribe to it, for, said he, 81
am Republican, and believe in q Republic

kind Of government results from this revo-
luton, ! will neither support or defend it. y
Col. Forbes, seeing that the point was well
taken, Immediately erased the objectionable
portion and substituted in its stead, s1oE
any other Republican government that
might be established, which was satisfac-
tory to all concerned, and they were forth
with mustered into service.
The spokesman, who would not swear al
legiance to any government, save that it was
republican, was David Crockett, who,
together with Bowie and that brave and
noble band, was SO foully and brutality muir

IN WILL SAVE Us.


The Democratic party of to-day, now un-
dergoing thorough reorganization, is the
only representative of those undying prin-
ciples under which our republican govern
ment was instituted and built up. It seeks
to instill into the public mind those doc
trines which, when they once more prevail
in our national councils, will remove cor
ruption from high places, and once more
cement together in one grand brotherhood
this great Republic of States. 1t clings to
great principles, which can never die,
and which must always find a sym
pathetic response in the hearts Of
all who cherish civil liberty and
the thousand and one rights which de-
pend upon it. And while the party is once
more rising in its might to contend for
those principles, which have for the time
been doomed to yield to the iron heel OF
despotism, it will seek to revive NO dead
issues. 1t proposes to support the Federal
government, and is opposed to any form Of
national disintegration. 1t opposes central
ization, which has been operating against
the rights Of States, and to enforce these
rights it insists only upon a strict construc-
ton Of the Federal Constitution. 1t viii
adhere closelyto the rule, that the oo-Ordi-
nate powers of government shall be kept
distinct and independent.
Il win insist upon the government spring
ing, as it should, from the people, being re
sponsible to the people; upon the dealing
out Of exact justice to oil men; upon the
rights of individuals to govern their own
affairs, with only such restrictions as may
be required FOR the maintenance Of the pub
lie peace and order; upon the reduction OF
tariffs and general taxation, and an econom-
ical administration of the government. Il
win maintain, as Il always has, that
liberal laws shall remain in force foI
the naturalization OF foreigners, and that
a kind hand shall be extended to them. Il
will declare itself in opposition to the rul,
Of monopOlies, to class legislation, and il
favor Of equal taxation in all branches Of
industry; against all laws giving capita
advantages over labor, and in favor of {
general system Of legislation, whereby the
most humble citizens can secure to them
selves the same rights and privileges as tn,
most influential Such are the principles,
under which the Democracy guided tn,
Federal government for overa half century
and they are what every true republican be
Roves in. Let US but engage in the con
flict with such annor, and appeal to ever
one, without regard to their past pOlitica
relations, to unite with us to rescue On
governments, National and State, from thl
hands Of corrupt men; and the present ag

Anew conceive that il they do not regis

duty. This, gentlemen, win do no longer.
It neither proves yCu good citizen, or win
it save you from the duty.
We again call attention to the absolute
necessity Of registration, in view Of the
coming election, and the complete redemp-
ton Of the State from Radical rule. Nc
man can vote unless registered, under the
new law. The present Constitution requires
registration-though, in our judgment, use
less with universal sufIrage-and it has to be
done. The last Legislature did what il
could to make this duty one of easy per
Torrance. It costs nothing but a little
time. Let no man neglect it. No man,
who loves his State and country, will ne
elect it. The Democrat who fails in this
is unworthy Of the noble party he Processes
to belong to, and deserves to be ruled and
taxed by the Radicals to the day of his
death. Last year, We heard Democrats
say they would not register, because they
would then have to serve on juries. This
was no proper excuse then, and now, we
are glad to say, that this will avail them
nothing. They viii be compelled to serve
on juries, whether registered or not. Erey5
negro and rhite Radical 'ciH register, and il
the Democrats do not, they may expect to
be beaten in many localities, and they will
deserve to be. Come forward then, Demo
cratic voters of Texas, and show that you

your whole duty, first to register, and ther
