dynasty. Such desperate men in power
hold on with a Caesar grip.

TO the Editor OF The Dallas Herald:
IL will be remom bered that the late
Constitutional Convention appointed
II committee of twelve, two from each
Congressional district, to prepare and
publish an address to The people of
Texas explaining.the changes made by
the new Constitution. The address
was widely circuia ed MI over the
State. The committee begged the peo
pie to itud the new Constitution for
themselves, aud predicted If they
would it would be ratified by II majority
unknown to the history of The State.
They sought aud urged II thorough in.
vestigation before the election. AT
least two hundred thousand copies Of
the proposed Constitution were placed
in the hands of the people, ana II is
safe TO say that ninety.nine out o
every hundred reading men in tie
state examined il in person, fact
never before so laiIy verified in any
State II this Union.
Notwithstanding all this, the COM
mittee and especially its chairman, as
author of the address, were Violently
assaulted by certain newspapers aud cor
respondents in different localities. The
committee was charged with making
false statements, aud every effort made
| to induce the people to voteagainst the
new Constitution. Men ,minstly assnil-
