BKLroN, December Is, 1875.
Ed. Examiner and Patron:
The citizens, of Bell county, in
mass meeting at the count house to-
day, ratified the new Constitution,
and endorsed the course of Col. K.
5. C.Robertson in the Constitutional
Convention; appointed Col. Robert
son, with large delegation, to at
tend the Galveston Convention, in
structed to vote, for Cose for Gov.
ernor, and Darden for Comptroller,
and left free as to balance of State
officers. hfa-
Bell county will roll up fully
$500 votes for Coke and the new
Constitution, in February.

We presume if Judge o. M.
Roberts will suffer his name to go
before the Galveston Convention
for the nomination or Chief JUS
tice, that there will be no opposi-
tion. Indeed, we can hardly men
tion the name Of Texas illustrious
jurist, with any degree of calm crit
icism, either upon his greatness as a
jurist, or the purity and grace of
his private character. A man sin
gularly above the weaknesses as he
is out of reach of the prejudices and
rivalries of the ordinary run of
men. We trust the Democracy will
honor itself by rendering the nomi-
nation to Judge Roberts, without a
single dissent, and we believe the
Galveston Convention will just do
this very thing. 1t would be folly
to ignore claim snch as this.

The impcrtanG rsaoction in the
expenditures Of the State, secured |
by the new Constitution, commend
il very strongly to the great ma
jority of the people who have been
groaning under the almost intolera-
Bile burdens which Radical waste
and extravaganza had fastened upon
the people, during the time that
baleful school Of politics held sway
In Texas, This result is no doubt
due to the general move made by
the great body of the people, to-
wards economy, under the lead of
the Grange and the ideas of thrift
and economy which form so much
of its policy, and which enters so
largely into the objects for which IT
is striving.
| The reaction, good healthy one,
too, has been set up, and it has bold
ly and earnestly grappled with the
problems presented for its solution.
One of the first was sweeping re-
duction of the salaries of the pub.
lie officers, and while, in many in
stances, this reduction will un-
questionably work hardship, yet its
general effect will be good, and the
people will soon come to under
stand that they can be governed
quite as effectually by plain, un-
pretentiWis and cheap government,
as by one which recklessly squan-
ders the taxes of the people, in
paying first-class rates for fourth
class service.
The times are propitious for the
general Inauguration of and appli-
cation of these principles of econ
omy to gov ernment, as well as pri-
vate enterprises. The spirit of pee
ulation, born from the rare opportu-
mites presented in great domestic
war, infected not only the officers
of the General Cover lment, but
those of the several States, as well
as nearly all private enterprises,
Rings, organised bands of shame
less public plunderers, wild cat
banks, and cloudy gold mines, rail-
roads and Pacific mail subsidies;
everywhere and in every direction
the air was impregnated with the
scent of dishonest and unfaithful
public administration, and the later
whiskey frauds which have beer
carried on with almost perfect i'm
punity, right under the very nose o
the National Government, has wei
nigh involved the highest officials
and distrust and dismay has beeI
the result. One inevitable effect o
all this is, that the trainers of ou
new Constitution resolved to pu
the State formally and solemnly O.
the record against waste, extrava
gance and peculation. m
II fair trial develops the made
!. quacy Of the salaries of certain off
!, cials, or any particular one, the ma,
). ter can be amended, and the prope
! amount paid. One comfortable r,
Election in this connection is, that
+ the system has faults, the peopl
: are not sacrificed TO atone for then
. Low taxation, honest administer
. tion and rigid accountability,
y the keystone of the reforms secure
v by the new Fundamental law {

We give on our outside to-day
the speech of Gov. Coke at the re-
cent ratification meeting in Austin,
and invite the careful attention of
our readers to it. Gov. Coke takes
no narrow or partizan view of rati-
fication, and this speech, like all his
public utterances is replete with
high, noble and unselish senti-
ments. Apure patriotism dictates
every word, and it will, from the
high character of the Governor,
meet a careful perusal, We doubt
not.

The Treasury investigation.

The consideration Of the report OF
the committee appointed to ascer-
tain what bonds and coupons have
been funded at the Treasury under the
Act to reduce the volume OF the public
debt. and whether the interest fund
has been kept separate and apart, will
come up to-day. It was postponed
from last Friday, in consequence OF O
letter from the Treasurer. in which he
says that he has other important evi.
dence to furnish. The committee was
authorized, meantime, to take such
additional testimony as the State Trea-
surer or any other person may have to
give. It is probable, then, that an
Investigation of what we regard as the
most important matter Of the session
will be entered upon to-day, with all
statements and proofs in hand from
both sides. which are necessary to
reach fair result.

P...aas Of tho oivil R,sn.. iaI s,,,

Well, the Civil Rights Bill; has
passed, and. there is no hope that it
will receive the veto of ths President.
The original bill. as drawn by Charles
Sumner. aud amended. We believe, by
M..' Boutwell,, lad sections which for
bade any discrimination III schools
and cemeteries, or rather which re-
quired that the two RACES should NEE,
together by compulsion in the Same
schools and lie close beside each other
in contiguous graves. These features
we're struck ont by the House of Rep.
resentatives from bill passed by the
Senate last winter. The bill thus
amended is the one which has row
passed the Senate. Passed as mea.
sure OF revenge, and in order to goad
the people Of the South into such re.
distance as will infame the North
against them, the Southern people will
take precious good care not to contri.
butte to the scheme by any agitation or
excitement about it. There is no dis.
position anywhere to deny the colored
man his just rights, and there is suffi-
cient discernment everywhere in the
South to see the objects Of this parti-
san measure and patience to disappoint
them. Discretion aud forbearance are
more imperatively the duty of our
people now than ever before. With
their eyes steadily fixed on the cleo
tions in 1876. which it is the desperate
game to carry in the interests Of the
Administration, they will know how
