SILVER AGAIN.
The director of the mint, Bnrchard, was
before the committee on coinage, weights
and measures to-day. He thought it mex
pedient to coin more silver until there be
an international agreement fixing rates
between gold and silver. His
theory was that without interna-
tional agreement as to the felative
value of the two coins, a continuance Of
coinage ard circulation by the Uaited
States would tend to make this country a
dumping ground for the silver of all ma
tons. while gold would fad its way out OF
the country as fast an imports came IN.

COMPLAINTS Of the defective mail service
IN Texas are heard all over the state, and it
looks as if those whose DUTY it is TO SEQ that
the mails are carried quickly and delivered
promptly have forgotten our state alto

about the Texas service are simply in!ole-
rable and inexcusable. We have ourselves,
in many occasions, failed to receive mail

Corsicana, aud other towns equally rs near,
until three days after the matter was
mailed This is simply gross neglect on

us the trouble of investigating the matte,

RErIERlSG to CALKIN's bill relative to
paying the expenses of congressional con-
tests in the present session, very sensible
eastern exchange has this to say: 1.-THE
bill approprlatcs $GS ,525 in various amounts,
from $3.50 to J. S, BARBOUR, the lowest, to
SG,0Gl to ALLEN G. CAMpDEII the highest.
The bill proposes to pay the expenses OF
the men who ore ousttd, as well as of the
winning contestants. II has likewise be
come customary to pay the salary of an un.
seated member for the time he retains his
seat and the successful contestant for the
full term, thus, in effect, frequently paying
NO salaries for one seat and the expenses
of both contestants besides. There Is no
puhicien, reason for any such expenditure.
The United States government should pay
one full salary for one seat and no more. II
candidate holds seat wrongfully he
should pay his own expenses and get no
salary. The present system only encourages
contests. Almost anybody can afford to
contest seat If the government is made to
pay the expenses"

DEATH or nx.GovERNoR DAVIS.

The terrible disease which seems to be
prevalent now throughout the state, pneu-
MONA, and with such fatal results, yester-
day, at Austin, carried Off one of the must
noted characters Of the state, EX-GOVERNOR
L. ]. DAVIS. He had been sick only n few
days before his death. Ex-Governor DAVIS
wa, perhaps, by all odds the most promi-
nent and influential republican politician
in the state, and slso the ablost. AS mill
tary governor of Texas he, OF course,
became very unpopular throughout
the state, and his administration is
iavorite theme for the seveiest
invective and criticism OF the democratic
speakers. While governor, his mistake,
one which covered his whole administration
with ooloquy, arose from his wholesale ep-
pointments OF the very worst characters Of
the state to office. He was the bitterest of
Ipar'isans, and his craftsmanship actuated his
every official act. No one would or will
impute personal dishonesty to EX-GovER.
NOR DAVIS. but his underlings, the t'lec.
tions of his craftsmanship, were of such
a character that not only Texas
but the character and popularity of the gov.
ernor suffered greatly from their conduct
while in office. GOVERNOR DAVIS was, upon
being terribly beaten by SENATOR COKE,
finally, though after stubborn resistance,
compelled to vacate the gubernatorial chair.
| When the stalwarts came into power with
ARTHUR, and even before, 4. j. DAVIS was
warmly supported for position in the cabi.
net, but failed TO receive recognition at the
hands Of the executive. Last fall he made
very strong, but unsuccessful race for con.
gress against JUDGE HANCOCK, in the tenth
district. Ex.GovERSoR DAVIS was, in
short, u man of strong and quick impulses
more than ordinary ability, devoted to his
friends, but bitter towards his opponents,
politically partisan, hut personally IL
straightforward and honest man, end his
dcatb will deprive the republicans of Texas
of their best known and abest leader.
