fine of 81 cents for each oath of which

MIR. GEO. p. FINLAY'S CANVASS - GAL
VESTON'S GAME.

Mr.. Finlay has been philandering
throughout the demijohn or Galveston
congressional district, evidently intend
ing to run for congress anyway, with
the democratic nomination if he can
get it, or without, as a so-called indie
pendent, but such independents are not
desirable, especially for the digestion
of the genuine opponents of bourbon
ism. But we suspicion George is car
rying out Galveston plot to control
the district whether or no. Either it
will be the democratic nominee from
Galveston, or the independent from the
same quarter, and then it will be an
easy matter to get Parson Plumly to
run, or Burton or Quincy to illustrate
the demands of our colored friends for
recognition, which will drag off the re.
publican vote and prevent republican
being chosen who could carry the from
tier. Let the republicans of the 10th
district act wisely periodically and
not allow Galveston to destroy their OPP
portunity. Galveston can be treated
fairly, but it wont do to take the tur-
key all the time and leave the buzzard
to the rest of the district. Either let
the republicans unite upon regular re-
publican candidate, or selectsome in
dependent who will not simply be fur
nished for the occasion, but whose in
dependence is not skin deep. The
district should be republican if it wants
to secure the greatest benefits to the
greatest number. But it may require
that in order not to throw the district
irretrievably into the jaws of the politi-
cal moloch, the republicans may have
to forego the privilege and vote for an
independent.

from the republican side, because he
has not yet proven that he will not be

have heretofore brought nothing but
weakness to the cause.

ton; his appointment is regarded
as a compliment to the editorial
fraternity of the State, hence the
approval of his appointment. Demo-
cratic editors, as a general rule, are
human, and personal contact with their
republican contemporaries wears off
personal prejudice, which is generally
the barrier to fair criticism. We say in
behalf of MIR. Costing. that the invldl-
Gus comparisons made in the Express
are uncalled for, and do him injustice
and injury with men whose friendship
he must have if he holds position un-
der a republican administration.

CAPT. DICK KING.

Among the possible candidates for
congress in the 9TH, or Galveston dis
tnct, Capt. Dick King is mentioned to
run as an independent.
Capt. King would make a genuine
independent candidate, because he
would only submit his name out of re-
gard for the best interests of the dis
trict, and his wealth places him above
any sordid object.
Capt. King is not slang-whange-
like our friend George P. Finley, but
he would have a hundred per cent
more weight than George in the ma
tional capital. George would meet
dozens of men in congress more thar
his match at smart repartie and scores
of men who would command the atten-
ton of the house while he mi ght beat
the air frantically for days and not
catch the eye of the speaker. But
King would take rank as a successful
business man of considerable wealth
who could afford to do for Texas what
has never been done yet-give din
ner party to the president.
Capt. King can carry the district,
provided the Galvestonians don't
double teams on him, and even then
he would cross the Nueces with from
three to five thousand majority.
King would make a representative
who would command influence, es-
pecially if he makes the race indie
pendent.

that all things in the way of appropria-
tons and expenditures should go in
and come out at the mouth-Galves-

THE INTEREST TO BE PROTEC TED.

district, altnOugn the anticipated e[cC-
ton of large factory at New Braun
fels will increase the protective neces-
sity to an important extent. In such
a district it is of the first importance
to have some interest that can counter
balance the lack of manufacturing in
dustries, and, which can stand on a
par with other protective interests.
The wool interest meets this require
ment. Texas is fast going to the front
as the leading sheep state and tits due
to protection that it is so. Not only
have our focks reached millions num-
ericallv, but the grade of woods have
steadily improved until it ranks we'll up
in the classification with other western
states.
From a few thousand pounds the
wool trade of our city has increased to
over seven millions of pounds during
a single season; averaging at least 20
cents per pound, or over million and
a half dollars added every few months
to our wealth; and this interest is al
most doubling annually. Every mer-
chant, every business man, every citi-
zen is interested infostering and protect
ing an interest that is fast building up
our permanent business interests.
This is not mere personal question
or one that the personal likes or dis
likes, or the personal popularity of any
individual should be placed in the bal
lance against the general welfare. The
Republican party is the sole depend
ence to secure and protect this interest,
what folly then to allow the opportu-
nifty to pass or be thrown away to place
this interest where it will be secure. If
a republican were elected from this
district our people might rest easy and
feel secure. Let a democrat be elect
ed and the interest will be endangered
THE EXPRESS AND THE REPUBLICANS
The San Antonio Express, paper
to which is attached the odor of re-
publicanism, as its foundation was with
republicanism and its support comes
largely to-day from republicans in bus
mess in this city, attempts to review
the republican party and takes Mr.
Hal. Costing as text. Because Mr.
Gosling's appointment has met the
universal endorsement of democratic
newspapers, and has been criticised by
republicans, the Express man concludes
there is something wrong in the COM
position of the republican party, and
goes on to cite the election
returns for 1872, 1876 and 1880,
to prove that the republican
party has made but little advance
while the democrats have gained
largely.
The truth is that the republican par
ty has held its own without patronage
either from the state or federal gov
eminent. The democrats have had
every office in the state to build on,
and from its boosted 100 900 majority
in 1876 it came down to less than 5o,-
900 in 1880. The republican electoral
ticket received 57,845 votes at the
last election without patronage, with
out speakers, without a newspaper in
the state, while the greenback party
gained sufficient more in opposition to
the democracy to swell the opposition
vote in the state to nearly 100 900.
The objection to Mr.. Costing comes

shams and impositions of all kinds and
it was perhaps his chief fault that he
allowed his sometimes unreasonable

He was devoted husband, kind and
