DUMMIES.
No greenbaCkers have been successful, in
hIs state in the present election, the re.
SabIicans and independents getting what
Snlehonors were won. AS we stated before
II, election, the republicans in this cam
nIen have made mere tools Of the green
bsrEers who were too blind to see it. An
,Ichanee suggests that the .greenbackers

iirking themselves for allowing the repub-
Hans 10 gull them so badly. The republi-
nns knew they could not elect state

SOLEMN DUTY.
The public require teachers to instruct
| and leaders to guide them in the war upon
d a.;..- wi -,
snsoOusness is to be enlightened as well as
ID conscience armed. The pulpit and
I,eeum are necessary aids. 1t is better for
ibs 'f former to instruct congregations in
me mysteries of beng than in the
mysteries of finance which is now
coming into vogue. Let Us
have our youth told what struggles are in
ibe battle of life and made acquainted with
The nature OF the influences that grapple in
the strife. lnculcate admonitions of
temperance, of moderation, Of the simple,
i've nature and completely of art, of the
Omnipresence Of the beautiful and the om-
Impotence Of the good San Antonio EI-
press.
GALVESTON $ CoNGREssM AN-ELEcT.
An exchange has this to say of Tom
Ochiltree: lie has the perseverance of the
spider, the beauty Of Beau Brummel and
the poetic grace of Sam Ward. If elected
be would tower, head and shoulders like II
Norway pine, above the congressional pig
mics who try to make little notoriety by
taking Liberties with the truth. There may
be competitors in the field who have
achieved Il certain local celebrity for tam
perng with the truth, but for ornamental
work, with deep ilounces and double row
Of luting up the back, there are Experts
who regard Tom OchiItree, in u national
sense, as the most scientific producer of ro-
mantle fiction OF the age. He is not mali
cious, ugly and dangerous, but genial, YER
satile aud amusing-as much of the Ameri-
can feature as the cotton-gin, Ii he gets to
congress the standard for Munchausens in
that body will be raised.-(San Antonio
Times.
AT LAST.
At last the republican house has crum-
bled down and lies in ruins. This is the
work of many years; it is the event of
day. A retrospect which will embrace the
causes takes us back to the days OF Grant.
The bayonet rule over legislative assem-
bies in the south, the Grant whisky rings,
the staggering infamies of Credit M0bilier,
the Louisiana returning board system and
The electoral commission, the corruption of
.s"N NSihi inNN'l-uaS
ISM Arthursm and Jay Hubbelism; these
are the old growths, and the field will soon
bcpanted with good seed. There have
been in the republican party many truo
friends of reform, whose faith and hope
have sustained them against their better
sense till now. They have fought demorali-
laton until their weapons have fallen from
their grasp, al once trying to disbelieve in
its presence and TO drive il hence They
will gravitate to their places in the party
Of the people and aid in ploughing the
ground for new crop Let us grow official
honesty in this field; and in this public
justice; and here talents, integrity and
patriotism for the public service. We have
acountry to save, an inheritance for our
children TO keep sacred and perpetuate.
Let us cruelty otlice.holders and seek fit in
cumbents tor our places Of trust and emol-
ument.-[San Antonio Express.
