THE OLD, OLD STORY. 4"

In the confession of MoNrELGN. the
ex-railway postal clork who was ar
rested few DAYS since for robbing the
mails, confession which appears in our
columns this morning, another pathetic
chapter Is added to the long account OF
defalcations, rninod homes and blasted
regulations to boattributed to the unfor-
tunate mania for gambling.
MoNrELIN had good name, a nice
littlo family, a salary sufficient to meet
current expenses and was moving along
smoothly until he tempted fortune at the
gaming table, Then of course the crash
came and came soon, until now, with all
gone that renders life attractive to a
man, he is stared in the face by the
lrowning bars Of dungeon. If he
should live fora thousand years longer
he might as wen be dead Tor all the happi-
ness or honors that | G could gain while
laboring under the stain Of felony.
Such instances are tho most potent
agents against gambling that can be
urged. One such case il worth book OF
theories. So long as these dcns exist
young and old mon viii frequent them.
so long as they frequent them ruin and
disgrace will follow inevitably. The
town or county that upholds tho practice
or winks at it is guilty as particops
criminis in destroying character and the
peace and happiness of families. We
commend this pathetic story of MONTE

towns where the vice is especially pop

and policies so long as the old ones SO
admirably suit the demands of tho
hour?
In Virginia, Tennessee and other Sec
tions where the "fusionists" have won
occasional victories, and met with
marked success, the local burdens and
issues have been such as TO invite
heated oppositions. There has been a
principle involved in the struggle, and
not merelya wild hunt for Office. So
long as our internal affairs give rise TO
no important, controlling issue upon
which parties and classes and sections
shall divide, there is no danger to De-
mocracy in Texas. A continuance of
the wisdom that has shaped our policies
for many years past, win result in the
future as 1t has resulted in this cam
paign, viz: in such practical unanimity
of popular sentiment throughout the
entire State, that but one party exists
within its borders.
