TLDEN, in his letter of acceptance, will
declare hls purpose to put a period to vio-
lerce, if any arise in the S uth, wrongful
ly practiced 10y whites upon blacks. If a
negro be killed simply because he is ne
gro, the murderer's neck should be stretched
and TIlden is the man to have the work,
to the extent that the country's laws au-
thorize his intervention, properly done.
The Democratic candidate should espe-
tally take pains to show that his sympathies
are wholly with the industrious, law abiding
classes of the South, and not with the bum
mers that rotted off from two armies, or
with knaves, sent hither to rob and lmpov-
erish communities. Tilden will also de-
clare for .:2SSle term of presidential office
and advise an amendment of the COnstitu-
ton for this purpose, and that he and Hen
bricks will differ materially on any question
of vital import is not probable. But Til
denis leading purpose is not to enact the
role of a Democrat, and surely not
that of Republican. He com. s
before the country as the impersonation of
reform and economy. He has illustrated
in high office his capacity to deal with all
questions of statecraft and especially his
skill in selecting proper agents for the exc
cution of his purposes; and as said of him
by the editor of the New York EUening Post,
he will lessen by half the burdens of the
federal system. He is, of course, hateful
to professional ofieeholdcrs, and for the
same reason wins the admiration aud votes
of the people. HIS strength becomes
greater as his history and purposes are con-
templated, and Texas, of all the States,
with lis boundless, sparsely-populated con-
fines, Is most interested in the election OF
President whose will and hands are of
iron and whose instincts and habits make
reform and economy and the reduction of
public burdens a foregone conclusion.

THE Bolton journal says that when the
branch of the Central road is completed
to this place, Bolton will rival Austin and
Waco as a business place. 1t has better
country surrounding it than either Austin
or Waco, and then it can and will COM
mand the trade of a larger and better
scope of country than either city.
Is it impossible to arouse the lethargic
property holders of Austin How
ever great Bolton become, if its growth
arise, as it must, from the Central's branch
from Hearne, AustiH retrogrades pari pdssu.
Our losses are Belton's gains, and these
gains induce Bolton to invest $50, 900 in a
broad gauge, and Austin cannot be in
ductd to invest 800 900 in narrow
gauge which would speedily give this city
80, 900 inhabitants and add a million to the
city's wealth for each $40, 900 invested in
the narrow gauge.

There is no need for such advocacy OF such

this case, to which Lamar advcrts, is quite
as necessary. 1t would be as rational to
advocate the diversity of air and water,

THE REPUBLICAN MEETING LAST
NIGHT.

Our Republican friends had quite a
large and orderly gathering last night
to hear the speeches of Hon. Thomas
Wren and MIR. Bartine. Judge Daven-
port, Chairman Of the Republican
County Central Committee, called the
meeting to order and Judge Doolin, of
Ruby Hill, was chosen President.
The following Vice Presidents were
then Selected: j. N. Williams, Matt.
Kyle, Marion Terrell, Charles Lauten-
schlager, w. Ii. Clark, w. H.. Stowell,
o. Dunkel, John Bowman, G. G. Car
penter and DIR. A. G. Bishop. ALI.
CtartZ was elected Secretary. Mr..
Wren, candidate for Congress, was then
introduced and occupied the attention
of the audience for about M hour.
The press on our columns in the way
OF election news, ETC., precludes a re-.
view of his remarks. Suffice it to say
that he made a fair conservative
speech, coming fully up to the expec-
tations of his friends and neighbors.
From his stand point, the, speech was
clever and ingenious, though based, in
our view, on premises.
&nhuy vi HIS ucCldthtlOuS WCtc suSCcP
tible of easy %refutation, which indeed
may be said of all Republican stump
orations. AS a whole, however, his
remarks were well received by both
Democrats and Republicans and elici-
ted frequent demonstrations of ap-
proval, though it cannot be said that
the meeting was especially enthusiastic.
Mr.. Wren, if he made no votes, lost
none. by his speech last night.
Mr.. Bartine mex came to the front.
We did not hear him through, but took
in enough of what he said to justify us
in stating that he is one OF sinoothest
and most pleasing speakers that we
have v heard on the stump in Ne
vada. He perpetrated some witticisms
that we're really good, and taken all in
all his speech was eminently satisfac-
tory TO the Republicans present. We
regret that we were unable to hear him
to the close. There Is evidently good
deal of force in Mr.. Bartine, and we
shall be disa ppointed if he does not
speedily a place among the
Republican leaders of the State. The
meeting wound up with cheers for the
speakers and Hayes and Wheeler.
