ltON,
For six years tho people of Texas
have foIt that the administration OF
tho State government, running from
State matters down through the
districts, to county and town gov
ornmcnts, was cumbersome, diIatory
and expensive. They have looked
forward to the assembling Of Il Con.
sLitutional Convention as tho era Of
u now order Of things. They have
supposed that Conventions freely
sprung from tho body Of the people,
could and would lay the lounda.
tions for II better, cheaper and more
just administration,
We bclicvo the hopes Of the pco,
Pic will be realized by tho coming
Convention. We believe, after look
ing over tho list Of tho delegates,
that the prcdomnating spirit Of that
body will be in The interest Of good
government, low taxation and an
economical administration Of State
affairs There will, Of necessity, be
much diversity Of opinion as to the
best means Of accomplishing u com.
mon object; but We have an abiding
faith that tho grand result will b,
favorable to liberty, Justice, equal
rights and n prompt administration
Of justice to all.
We caution tho peoplc--tho cen.
sors in this crisis--to be prudent
and just. DO not form judgments
hastily from what may appear in
tho press of daily proceedings, but
wait the final action on zach funda
montal point. From u score o
propositions on given point, wal
till you SEQ tho final action OF your
chosen delegates.
We repeat that we have faith it
tho ability, the patriotism and tn,
determination Of the great body o
the delegates, and trust, that OF
thoir return to their homos, they
will present to tho people nm instru
