What is most desirable is full recogni-

and the public, of the respective rights and

| CARS FOR THE coLoRED.
If we understand the anlmus Of the re-
cent CORE spondence of Governor Ireland

ating lines in this state, it was nothing
more nor less than polite request by the
| governor that seperate coaches be provided
for white and colored passengers. 1t was
not demand. The railroads operate their
lines under franchises granted by the state,
and the request is not unreasonable, and a
compliance with it would doubtless save
the state government from any embarrass-
ment or complication that might possibly
grow out OF Legislation upon this delicate
question; though the right of the state to
porations are wise. they will avoid every

THE GAMBLING LAWS.
The Dallas HERALD of last Friday has a
long and labored editorial in favor of the
gamblers OF that benighted city and against
the endorsements of the Laws against the
gambling bells. Well, we have not the
space to deal with the article as it deserves,
and will content ourselves with making
few bret remarks. 1t is to be deplored
when powerful daily paper takes up the
cause of the gamblers against the lawful
officers whose sworn duty it is
to enforce the laws against the
Classes of crime. We have noted with re.
greet, that the HERALD avails itself of the
opportunity 10 fight everything in the
way of prohibition and to side with the
whiskey element. but did not expect it to
openly espouse the cause of the gamblers,
which is little better than robbery. The

Clint in his vigorous prosecution OF the
county in the state is not blessed with such
a prosecuting officer.-[Wllls Point Local.
TILDEN AND RANDALL.
Mr.. Tilden, as every one knows, is not
given to loquacity. He keeps his own
counsel and bis political movements are as
dark and carefully concealed as a Guy
FL wkes gunpowder plot. He doled out his
frt m some OF his treasure "bsr'ls" during
the campaign OF 1876. yet it was done, as it
v ere, in the stiffness of midnight, and the |
golden stream could not be traced. He |
q oes not proclaim his plans from "the |
neither does he publish them |
ia Gath, or upon the sire cts of Ascalon."
How then does Mr.. Tilden stand |
tka Ia ha in IA
with the great laboring masses Of
his party on the subject, or doe,
he lean toward his own class-the monopo-
lists and railroad corporations? He and
Randall are Damon and Pythias-where
comes in the dividing line? Who knows
how to draw II? Can there be one drawn
between them2 Then why this war upon Mr..
Tilden2 Is it not distinction without a
d,fference2' If destiny should decree that
Samuel j. Tilden should be
the next president Of the
United States, the same finger of fate
would point TO Samuel ]. Randall as his
"a mister OF state. And yet, men denounce-
the latter bitterly. and with the same
breath shout hosanas in praise OF the for
