RE7RENoHMENT IN THE CoNvEN-
TON.


No healthier sign has been given
yet In Texas, than the evident dis
position among the delegates to the
Convention to retrench in every
possible way, the expenditure of the
money of the people. We say it is
a healthy sign; so it is; but, as yet,
their steps in this direction are ne
cessarily Of doubtful character.
Not doubtful as to the disposition
to reduce, but only as to the proper
way to set about the task.
The most the Convention can do
in this way, is to so arrange the
constitution as to make il possible
for future Legislative action to
evolve the great principle of rigid
system of State economy. All is
not economy that is called by that
name any more than "all is gold
that glitters." But the way the
question crops out in the Conven.
tion leads us to hope that the true
mean between costly parsimony and
wasteful extravaganza will finally
be reached, and we will have State
government inside of our income,
and equal to the task of protecting
every citizen, and fostering every
legitimate enterprise, which has for
its object the good Of the people, or
the advancement Of the State.
While the ideas of the people
upon economy in State expenditures
are yet crude, we have every indi-
cation that they will have chance
to brush them up before long.

be q general election for members

If the tenure of Office is disturbed
Then, in case the new Constitution

One of the most serious objections tt
the ordinance deferring the election

Now, "Russel, of Waco" never
offered the resolution, and this de.

that there is no such man as ''Rus

and if there had been it is just pos
sible he would have been in favor o
