some Pointers.

The Dallas Democrat Inns elected
itself the especial discoverer aud
champion of Judge Hare of Grayson
and il grows impatient and impoli.e
whenever any one else mentions the
old war horse in anything like COM
pliimentary vein. Now, we have
known and loved Judge Hare long be-
fore the Democrat was evolved from
chaos. We know the man; know hi
powers and fitness far better thrn
his dev oted aud seif-electel champion.
There, are few men in Texas who de-
serve more at the hands of the peo-
pie Of hls district. Judge Hare has
been. from the days of long ago, one
of the strong mon of his strong re-
gion-reliable, brave, devoted, and
always ready TO shoulder responsible
tiles whenever necessary. There Is
no man north of the center OF the
state who is capable of doing more
than Judge Hare. Indeed, we have
always ranked him, next to dear "Old
Throck." in all the qualities which go
to make up the character of the man
who represents the people and who
speaks for them when and where voice
is necessary. The pointer we give in
this connection is, the judge ia just
the man for the place "Old Throck."
10 vacating. The latter has raised the
| Judge for his successor, and has made
n finished job of it. lie can get the
place without trouble, aud the COVER
norship, because of Ross can
didacy, is doubtful, to say the
least of II, il indeed II is
not closed TO him. The fact is
Ross has strength for the position
in north Texas that no other man,
not excepting Hare, has. This may
serve as pointer number two.
IL 1t Is determined that north Texas
is to have the goyernorship, 1t can
only be after they have given up the
senatorsbip. All the data we have al
hand points to the fact that never be-
fore in his history has Senator Maxey
had a closer or better organization
forces than he has now, and never
did his chances seem better. This
organization Is had, of course, at the
expense of the hopes of north Texas
for the governorship. We don't as
sumo to say II 1t is right or wrong,
but the indications all point also to
the fact that Judge Hare with every
particle of his local strength is stand
ing for the Paris sage, and will so
stand "until the cows come home"
Maxey is not the sort of man who
can be stood up in the corner out of
the way, like the wooden figure upon
which the clothier exhibits his wares.
Either Maxey comes down or Hare
cannot run for governor. Maxcy
!. can't come down, and not TO lose
Hare we insist that Throckmorton's
: chair cannot have all ADLER, more
fitting tenant from his own district
This is pointer number three, and II
is n good one because IL is reasonable
logical and common sense.
We speak of these matters in al
carnestness aud with entire frankness
and endcavor to do so in such wa,
as to point out easy and natural re
suits SO that in the future, there ncet
be few, If any, disappointmenis
Gen. Ross is making the race for III,
nomination for governor without th,
least reference TO who may and VIII,
y may not be In the race for the senate
and altogether without any combina
q ton with any man, set of men or sec
tional interests. His friends deem Tia,
present the proper time for him 10 OF
Ter for the place to which he Is :,
richly entitled, and they are simpl,
!. urging him, not fighting for oragains
any man for the senstc, or for an,
other position. Both Ross and hi
II friends are doing all this openly an,
l. above board. They have no dark
concealed purpose or mysterious com
. binaiions to push. They frankl
claim that Ross is the man, aud the
v" are deeently, quietly, but firmly AN
determinedly urging him, and appl
in rently with every reasonable chanc
u III their favor II may may he grcu
sin TO do so, but they do not regard
In that way. II IS no summer morn
a ing's madness, but deep aud sbid
