ALREADY the effect Of the dry rot appears
in the Bourbon party Of Texas. The local
troubles in the western counties are being felt,
and the people are locking in vain Of that
Democratic convention in Austin, by courtesy,
called the legislature, for relief. But little
craftsmanship has been developed the past
week, and it is not likely there will be during
the term. With the vast interest OF the stockmen
on one side, and the demand for the enforce
ment of the laws, BY the people, on the other.
the leaders in the Bourbon party, from the
Governor down, are houndering around in the
sea Of uncertainty, trusting alone to time to heal
the disorders caused by vacillatipg admins
tration.

THE New York Times, speaking Of the
tariff question, says: at becomes more and
more evident every day that the Democratic
division on the tariff question was not settled
by the election of Speaker Of the House.
The Randall men are threatening to make
serious trouble. The measure of their wisdom
appears in the remark Of Mr.. Eaton, OF Coa-
necticut, that it will be time enough for a
further revision Of the tariff after Democratic
President has been elected, and SO a minority
Of the Democrats propose to make a contest
that will diminish the chance Of having such
starting point for policy. The Republi-
cans in Washington seems disposed to enjoy
the prospect of having only to wait for their
opponents TO quarrel and blunder in their Gus
tomary manner, but it is misfortune to the
country that a party should be able to get
along on that kind Of capital"

MARX TWAIN wept at the grave OF Adam,
il his individual statements to be believed
because the deceased was his ancestor, re-
mote it is true, but relative for all that, and
now the St. James Gazette cites the case of
Hebrew gentleman who refused to serve on
coroner's jury because Of his being descen-
dant OF Aaron, the high priest, and forbidden
in that character to approach a dead body.
He was fined five times for refusing to "enter
into corpse on the ground stated, and at
last appealed to the magistrate at Quarter
Sessions, who, after hearing his evidence, and
receiving the written testimony of the Rabbi
as to the Aaronic descent ordered the re-
mission of the fines. Twain's grief over
Adam may not have been so much of bur-
lesque as he Intended, in view Of this legal de-
cision.

The following suggestive hint to the Leg
islature is from the Fort Worth Gazette:
"The spirit Of Golad, wier, Alamo and San
Jacinto is 'revisiting the glinpsss Of the
moon in Texas just now, and there are those
who decry, scof and spit upon it. But that
spirit will not down at the bidding Of ordinary
mortals, sor harLen to the requirements of
slevenly class legislation. 1t appears with its
visor up, and demands an honest shuttle, a
fair deal and no grumblng."

a common ticket, instead Of giving
each locality, having the necessary
population the right to choose it's

the districts be SO constituted that
each shall have a voice without
being Overborne by a larger neigh
Dor, which may be combined with
it as now. This is true apportion-
ment and local government; the
other is consolidation.
The same objection applies to the
manner of choosing municipal
officers. Each precinct should have
its own representative, elected by
the majority of its citizens, instead
of electing all, as now, on 6 COM
