A BRIGHTER EZRA.

The prompt action of the administration
in the matter of the Texas officials gives
hope of the resusciaton of republican en-
thusiasm and ultimate republican success
The advent of Mr.. Jewell and MIR. Bristow
has given power evidently to gentlemen of
the old republican scnool who have carried
into the cabinet and thence to the ear of
the President the grievances of the better
class of republicans of the country. That
there has been great lukewarmness engen-
dered in republican ranks by the apparent
fostering of corruption and corruptonists
at Washington, it would be folly for any
one at this day to dispute. The people had
really begun to suspect that any attempt to
put stop to these evil practices would be
in vain. Recent events give gratifying
evidence to the country that such is not the
case. The wall which self-sceking advisers
had built around the executive chamber is
breaking down. The policy of allowing no
one to reach the president without the con-
currencc of self-constituted advisers, have
driven from him all who were unwilling to
be made the mere tools of trucking poll
ticians. Men who during the presidents
first term possessed his confidence, have
during the past two years had reason to
think that their recommendation would be
fatal to any In whose behalf it was exert.
ed. 1t is this state of facts that has caused
SO much lukewarmness everywhere, and so
much disorganization. Therefore we hail
with qualification the evidences of the de-
termination to correct the errors which
have done so much to bring disaster to the
republican cause, and 10 relieve the Presi-
dent from the charges of remissness as to
matters of vital importance. necessary to
maintain the confidence and respect of the
party. The republican party can only be
held together by the maintenance of an
administration free from all completely in
fraud and corruption.
