The Democrats Of Texas have thrown
to the winds, as so much rubbish, the
doctrine that the "ollice should seek the
man, and not the man the office" and
the result is that the woods swarm with
candidates, who are pushing themselves
upon the people with sad lack of dig
nifty and a wonderful atlluenCe of ego
tism. Judge Terrell leaps into the arena
and declares his intention to canvass the
State for United States Senator, and
half the Democratic newspapers applaud
his ardent and labOrious pursuit of the
senatorshlp. Mr.. Swain hunts up some
one to interview him, and launches out
into a scramble for Governor, and the
Democrats applaud his keen pursuit of
office to the echo. The LIGHT knows
full well that Texas is Overwhelmingly
Democratic, still it has its choice as to
what Democrat shall be Governor. 1t is
opposed to the ring" Democracy and in
favor Of the people themselves choosing
their public officers. The people are not
corrupt nor senseless. Let the ring be
smashed and let the people rule.

THERE is a very interesting night de-
veloplng between the refrigerator estab-
lishments and the eastern line railroads,
in which Texas is by no means pas
sive spectator. The killing of animals
in the west and shipping the carCasses
dressed to the consuming market has
grown very rapidly of late, and is con-
tinually on the increase. This, OF
course, threatens the movement of live
stock. The latter interests, 1t is alleged,
have interested certain high railroad
officials with them, and have secured the
raising of railroad rates TO So per cent.
over that OF live stock. The refrigera-
tor men claim that this is conspiracy
and amenable to the law, and propose to
fight it in the courts, while they also
will 90 before Congress, and indOrse
some Interstate commerce bill similar
to that of Reagan or CullOm. The re-
frigerator plan is just beginning to be
received with favor in this State, but
the excessive rate above mentioned
would certainly put their success among
the impossibiliIIes.

The Toady Times says that the
LIGHT resorts to TRADES, of which fish

the LIGHT leaves the qualification Of the

Times. The business men of San
Antonio are intelligent enough to
tell the difference between honest
criticism and SANDER, and are suf-
ficiently acquainted with the news
papers of this city to judge as to which
are doing the most good for the COM
munity at large, and to themselves indi-
vldually as advertising mediums. They

THE oft-asserted charge that capital
never makes a voluntary concession to
labor is disproved by the unsolicited ad-
vance of 10 per cent, made by many Eas-
tern manufacturers in the pay Of opera
tives. 1t is more unusual that labor
makes a voluntary reduction when hard
times come on, and the only escape that
capital usually has is to shut down and
refuse employment.
