The Austin correspondent of the
Houston Post gives the following politi-
cal item: "What kind OF race do you
think Judge Rector will make for Con-
gress in this district,"I inquired Of one
OF the most observant men in Austin.
"The very best that any man in his
party can make" was the answer, "but
he can not be elected" Continuing,
this gentleman said, what every one
knows to be a fact, that this Is certain
Democratic district, and nothing can
lose 1t except some inexcusable blunder
on the part of the Democracy. Two
years ago it gave John Hancock 5000
majority against Davis, and Rector's
personal popularity cannot overcome
these figures. The supposed detection
among the sheep men will not hurt the
Democratic candidate, because, though
Rector is pledged to protection by his
party, he is also bound by the Fort
Worth platform, which declares for free
grass and announces, in effect, that a
sheepman shall not be allowed to lease a
pasture for the accommodation Of his
fiocks. "You can put 1t down as a GER
tainty," concluded the interviewed,
"that any good man the Democrats may
nominate will be easily elected; and for
my part wish Wash Jones would run,
instead of Rector. | desire that few
snivelers around here, including local
newspaper, be shown what consummate
asses they make of themselves by holding
Jones up as threat to the Democracy
This is but sample of very general
sentiment here"

TnE National Prohibition party, for an
organization that processes to be made
up of the pure and sanity in politics,
seems to have gone to extremes in the
selection of its candidate for the Presl-
dency. Ex-senator Pomeroy, of Kansas,
is man who has great ability, but his
reputation is little bit of. In the win
ter Of 1872 his greatest act was the at
tempt TO bride Senator A. NJ. York with
$1,000 to vote for him for United States
Senator. York, in dramatic speech
in the Kansas Senate, gave the scheme
away, and 5. c. Pomeroy retired from
politics disgraced and beaten man.
The intervening years may have attoned
for the corruption Of the past, but one
would naturally believe there would not
be much magnetism or influence in the
candidacy Of man with such record
and such disposition. Prohibitionists
as a class are very intolerant, and in
politics they in many respects lack the
principle and the honesty of the other
parties.

THE following from the Brennan Ban
ner is quite true, and II is time the fact
was realized by all classes. The Banner
says: "In making political nominations
candidates are not infrequently put for
ward for the purpose of catching the
German vote and the Irish vote. This
is all wrong in theory and practice.
When an lrisbman or German comes
to this country and becomes citizen,
he becomes to all intents and purposes
an American, he takes out naturaliza-
tlon papers and renounces allegiance to
the Government Of the land Of his birth.
The nationality of an American citizen
should cut no figure in making nomina-
tions for offices. There should be no
foreign element, all should be Americans
together"

IN Mn. BLAINE is such weak candi-
date. and the alleged detection In the
Republican ranks is true, II would look
better on the part of the grand old Dem
ocratic party to take up any one OF Its
hosts OF candidates and put him on the
track, instead Of begging and pleading
that Mr.. ridden be nominated at all
events, against his expressed Will IL
looks very much like Mr.. Tilden's ex-
preston, that his "public career has for
ever closed" had at the same time
blasted the hopes of his party for all
time to come.
SAN ANTONIO should walk away
with the Congressional nomination for
the Tenth district. Mr.. Joseph Il.
Dwyer or Colonel Columbus Epson
certainly ought to go to the convention
with force sufficient to capture that bag
gage. In this connection the following
from the Kerrville Eye may be sugges-
tive: "The people Of San Antonio want
Colonel Epson to announce himself
as an Independent candidate for
Congress. Colonel Epson is the
choice Of Kerr county, his views suits
the interests of this country more so
than any other candidate In the field"
"MEMco is a great and splendid mine
of gold that has never been worked"
writes a correspondent Of the Detroit
Post and Tribune. "Though with
population of 100000, its annual pro-
duct, counting vegetables, cereals, fruit,
lumber, silver and precious stones, is less
than that of the single State Of Indiana
less than that Of New Jersey. And
the Americans in business here are few.
The whole number OF people who came
to Mexico last year from the United
States was less than the Europeans who
land at Castle Garden in one day from
single Guion steamer. This is yet the
terra incognita-the land OF great posi-
bilities."

The Iowa County Democrat the leading DEM
ocrate newspaper in this section OF the state, has
nominated Mcdonald, of Indiana, for president
while its satellite the Dodgeville sun. HOSTS the
name of Villas of this state for second place
This settles II SO far as the democratic ticket goes
and unless the few democrats in the nation, out
side OF Iowa county, combine TO beat these two
sage knights of the quill. Mcdonald and Villas
will be the bourbon birds that so down in the
gloom of defeat next November. = Darlington
Republican.
We are glad to be informed by
our esteemed contemporary, The
Republican, that the presidential
nominations are settled in our favor
so far as the democratic ticket is
concerned; but the talk of that
paper in regard to the gloom of de-
feat next November strongly re-
minds us of its predictions as to the
result of the elections in Ohio last
October. The reputation as a fore.
caster of political events then earned
by The Republican, makes us fear
however, that the chances for the
nomination Of Mcdonald and Villas
may not be SO good after all.
