The uncertainty In the minCs Of the
state democracy concerning the guber-
material prObRbilIti,s and Possibilities
grows intensely distressing. There as
so many trimming their sales, ready to
catch the faintest breath from whatever
quarter, who in the present mixed con
ditiOn OF the political atmosphere can
not DISCERN the face OF the sky, that they
are all abroad. The shouters from shout
erdom, who were hoarse with vOicing
the certainty OF either Ross or Swain n
few weeks since, have lost voice and are
dumb on the trail. The result Of the
county conventions held to date has only
been to deepen the vast uncertainty
brooding over the political face OF Texas.
There Is an evident hesitancy In the
minds OF the people to declare them
selves concerning candidates, and the
convention will assemble without any
one man having so pronounced follow
ing rs will push him to the front. Hedg-
ing is the order Of the day. The pro-
nounced opinions OF . month ago are
being modified and qualified. The
opinion is gaining ground that no one
can tell what the result is likely to be
until the convention takes action, and in
this uncertainty the democracy are
waiting while the leaders are on the
anxious seat.

DALLAS will hereafter be head center

consolidation OF the Texas Baptist Her
aid Of Waco, with the Dallas Texas Bap-
fist gives the Two-fair-city the denomi-
national journal of the state, and adds
one more link to the chain by which she
seeks to bind the interests Of the state to
the chariot wheels Of her own progress.
This consolidation will increase the eff
fioiency Of the state organ Of the Baptist

than it can possibly WELD as at present
issued, and better meet the wants of the
great body II represents.

The democratic Journals Of Texas are
not half as certain who will be nOni-
mated next month for governor, as they
are who won't. You can find any mum
Der who will declare that Major Brack-
enridge has no show and that the
"Tlmes is on very cold trail;" that Sui
Ross never can be governor OF Texas;
that the old alcalde will never make q
respectable showing in the convention;
that Swain can't carry his own county;
that Martin never was In the race; that
Glddings Is simply foolish for allowing
his name to be brought before the peO-
pie at all-and SO and so on. With the
exception OF the Waco Sage you will
not find journalist ready to bet on
Ross; and as for Swain no one Is willing
to put up money that he will carry the
convention. Texas is a big state, and
her democracy Is simply big mob with
out organization and as badly divided
as any good republican could wish. The
heart burniDgs and jealousies before the
convention are rs water unto wine
compared to the heart enmities and
envyings there will be after the choice
OF the convention lie declared. Texas
will see regular jamboree this fall, and
the democratic convention will inaugu-
rate the circus.

EVEN the democratic journals of the
better class are beginning to call for the
resignation of Mr.. Garland. His reten-
tlOn in the cabinet is by them character
lied las an anOmoly in the administra-
tiOn OF president who was elected to
emphasize the peoples mistrust of
officials with itching palms." That this
sentiment is at all general among the
democracy Is not to be supposed, for
with the party at large the office Is mea-
sured by its emOluments. But with that
very large number Of people who think
more OF the national honor than they do
OF seeing any one man pocket a cool mil
lion and half by virtue Of his official po-
sition there is very decided sentiment
in favor Of Mr.. Garland's immediate re-
tirement from the high position that he
holds. So strong has this feeling be.
come that there are whispers, not loud
but distinct, that cabinet changes will
soon be made, and that in these changes
Mr.. Garland will be relegated to the
shades of his native law and poker. The
Investigations into Pan-Electric show
that Garland received a large block of
stock, for which he gave the influence
OF his name as attorney general and an
opinion as to the market value Of the
stock. 1t is not yet in order for the at
torney general Of the United States to
use the name of the United States for his
own personal ends In this way. and the
sooner Mr.. Cleveland purges his cabinet
of the presence Of such an officer the
sooner will he relieve himself of the sus-
picion that he is no more the president
of the people, but merely the president
of party.
The Ross and Swain organs are not
happy over the persistent manner in
which the name OF the old Alcalde forces
Itself upon the attention Of the voters of
Texas. There are booms that only APP
pear to be booms because they are per-
sistently doomed, and there are booms
that quietly boom themselves. The
Ross and Swain booms are dying out for
lack of nourishment. They have ex-
hausted the soil upon which they fed.
PUBLIC works all stop when demo-
cratic house engineers the affairs of the
nation. Can anyone tell why this is
thusly? Is 1t a coincidence or Is IL pure
cussedness?
The WACO Examiner unceHsciOusly
pronounces sentence against Its own
demigod, and announces the defeat Of
its chosen standard bearer when It says:
1.-The farmers OF Texas have always
stood the strong bulwark against the
surging seething fanaticisms OF political
Madness" That settles the question.
The ''surging, seething fansticism" Of
the Examiner is provided against, and
the country is at peace. What has Sui
Ross done to Barlow that he should lay
him out cold in that style
THERE can be no question OF the iden-
tity of the Texas daily which says:
"The campaign is all right and we can
announce to the readers of-on
this blessed Sunday morning that Ross
is far ahead Of all competitors for the
governorship." The ear marks are com d.
plste. There is only one jcrcpal in
4 Texas that could, would, or should e1-
press itself as above. That one has
earned the right to express itself in all
! fool ways on the Ross matter.

The woRKINGMEN in many of the
northern states are putting candidates
in the field for county and state offices
There is every indication that the legis-
latures OF Iowa, Wisconsin, Illinois and
Michigan will be composed in no small
part OF wOrkingmen's candidates. In
some Of these states 1t is quite probable
that the labor candidates will be re-
turned in sufficient numbers to shape
legislation If not to absolutely control 1t.
Wherever you lind workingman's can
didate you find protectiOnist. The
labor party is outspoken for the protec-
ton OF American products and Ameri-
can labor, and SO far as this one plank in
their platform goes have nothing in
common with the free trade wing OF the
democracy. TO secure the support of
the wOrkingmen the democracy must
avow itself protective. This is the
halfway house to repuolicsnism and so
destructive to democracy. The signs are
not good for the bourbons this innings.
The democrats will find 1886 an of year.
In 1888 they will be away of g.: out of
